He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew it was time to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He returned to the inn, packed his belongings, and quietly left Hebai City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the city gate, several residents came to see him off, their eyes filled with reluctance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big brother, you must come back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young girl held his hand, her eyes glistening with tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen nodded with a smile, “I will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Luo Chen silently departed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the previous North Hong City was the world of cultivators,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then the much smaller Hebai City was the secular world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, not to mention cultivators,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even the martial artists who specialize in physical training did not exist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What there was comprised the simple folk customs of Hebai City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was precisely because of this that Luo Chen felt notably comfortable and at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside Hebai City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen continued to ride a horse silently forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he rode along the countryside paths outside Hebai City, the surrounding gentle green hills and distant mountains appeared particularly serene in the sunset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The breeze blew by, carrying the fresh scent of earth and wildflowers, bringing a sense of peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he felt reluctant to leave the residents of Hebai City, he knew his journey was not yet complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He yearned to explore more unknown places, to experience different lives, and to enrich his Sword Dao cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of hooves echoed softly on the path, as Luo Chen reminisced about his days in Hebai City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those simple and happy times gave him a new understanding of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began to realize that the cultivation of Sword Dao is not just about pursuing strength and techniques, but more about the nurturing of spirit and understanding of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As night fell, Luo Chen found a suitable place to camp in a small grove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skilled in lighting a campfire, he prepared some simple food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The firelight reflected on his face, appearing exceptionally tranquil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late at night, Luo Chen sat by the campfire, gazing at the starlit sky, feeling a surge of inexplicable calm within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes and began to meditate, blending his spirit with nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On such a night, he seemed to hear the breath of the earth and feel the pulse of the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At dawn, Luo Chen continued his journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed fields and streams, arriving at a place called “Qingyun Town.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The town was not large but bustling, with various stalls lining the streets, lively with the sound of vendors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen walked around the town, observing the local customs and manners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found that although Qingyun Town was different in scale compared to Hebai City, its residents lived similarly simple and joyful lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to stay here for a time to experience a different life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Luo Chen was planning to find an inn to stay,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>suddenly, the arrival of a group of bandits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disrupted the peace and calm of the town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Run, hurry up and run!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, you must be a stranger here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You should hurry and run too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If those thugs catch you, there will be trouble…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen stood among the crowd, watching the panicked people scatter, his brow furrowed, filled with indignation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He initially intended to stay out of it, but seeing the frightened innocent citizens, he couldn’t just stand by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You bandits dare to commit crimes in this place!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen shouted, his figure swiftly moving to block the bandits’ path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader of the bandits was a burly man with a rugged face, who laughed heartily upon seeing Luo Chen alone, “Kid, you’re courting death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the words were finished, the bandits brandished their swords, rushing forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen, agile in form, wielded his sword with electrifying speed, fighting many foes without falling behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sword Light flickered in the sunlight, and each swing accurately hit the mark, soon leaving many bandits writhing on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining bandits, upon witnessing this, began to retreat, the leader’s face turning pale. He hadn’t expected such skill from this seemingly scholarly youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The burly man roared, drawing a huge axe from his waist, swinging it at Luo Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Luo Chen evaded calmly, sidestepping the huge axe attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thrust his sword effortlessly, the tip precisely piercing the leader’s shoulder, causing him to drop the axe in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Die!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader roared, despite the severe pain in his shoulder making it almost impossible to grip his weapon, he tried using his weight and brute strength to crush Luo Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Luo Chen’s swordsmanship relies not only on strength but on skill and speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved like an agile cat, weaving through the leader’s attacks, each move precise, causing every attack to miss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding bandits, witnessing this, began to feel panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had never seen such an opponent before and were momentarily at a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen seized the opportunity, moving like an apparition among them, with each strike causing a spray of blood, repeatedly felling the bandits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, when the last bandit felt the tip of Luo Chen’s sword at his throat, the entire town of Qingyun held their breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen’s sword remained steadily poised at the bandit’s throat, his gaze piercing, sweeping across each bandit’s face, the aura emanating from him preventing any movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Leave!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen’s voice was cold, like the winter wind, instilling fear in all present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bandits scurried away in fear, fleeing Qingyun Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen sheathed his sword, turning to face the townsfolk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes were filled with gratitude and admiration, they expressed their thanks to Luo Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, hero, for your help; the peace of Qingyun Town has been preserved.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An elderly elder stepped forward, bowing deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chen smiled gently, waving his hand, “No need to thank me; it was what I ought to do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder looked up at Luo Chen, a thoughtful look in his eyes, “Hero, your swordsmanship is exceptional. Would you be willing to stay in our town for a few days, giving us the chance to repay your kindness?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1322,"2026-06-03T12:44:45.567Z","2026-06-03T12:44:51.232Z",1,"novelbin.me","af243ee2a8535989043e470e7fd6bcb9523146650d6a71c9778ef0250cd0f5e5","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-1405","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-1403",2094,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--cover.jpg"]
