The natural generation, combined with the active suppression from various prominent families, resulted in a limited number of Yin spirits that could be left behind at any given time.After all, everyone is well aware of the dangers of Yin spirits. It is best to strike when they first appear, or else they might grow stronger and cause trouble.
Trying to clean up the mess later would only increase the danger and horror several times over.
These prominent families would clean up once, and then another batch would naturally die off, leaving fewer targets for Chen An to deal with.
However, each of them was slippery and difficult to handle.
This was true.
Just take the previous experience, for example.
Chen An, with his cultivation at the half-step Stellar Energy, went to hunt down a Yin spirit, and it took him almost half a month to find it, nearly losing track of it.
This experience made him question life a bit.
It just shows that being strong doesn't mean being strong in all aspects.
Purely relying on stats does not mean you can crush everything.
If others can't beat you, can't they run away?
Of course, with Chen An's strength, as long as he was determined, few Yin spirits in the Shangyuan County could escape his clutches.
It just took a bit longer.
So for Chen An, it was actually a matter of cost-benefit.
After all, the Yin spirits he hunted down after half a month would probably only provide a simulation experience once, with just a dozen or twenty Source Strengths.
A few of the powerful ones could allow Chen An to carry out two or three simulations directly, but they were also hard to kill in numbers.
This was easy to understand.
After all, the easy ones had already been cleared out.
Life wasn't easy.
Chen An sighed.
At this moment, he inexplicably began to miss the days in the Dahua World.
Life was better in the Dahua World.
Although there were no Yin spirits there, there were various treasures.
And compared to elusive Yin spirits, those treasures wouldn't move.
As long as you were strong enough to defeat the owners of those treasures, you could use them as you pleased.
Without much trouble.
Thinking of this, Chen An thought of his crystal again. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ɴøᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
His heart began to ache silently.
That crystal was found by him in a treasure land, presumably a treasure nurtured by that treasure land, with a unique ability to condense external aura and convert it into pure Source Strength for Chen An.
In the Dahua World, that crystal was the biggest contributor to Chen An's rise.
Chen An had even thought about whether he could bring that thing back when he returned to his original form.
But now it seemed that it was not going to happen.
If you can bring yourself back, isn't that already good enough? Want to bring back equipment too?
Are you dreaming?
Despite anticipating it, Chen An still felt regretful about it.
After all, that thing was definitely extremely valuable.
When he was in the Dahua World, Chen An had tried to find out the origin of that thing but had found no decent records.
Now, he didn't even know what that thing was, where it was nurtured, or where to find it.
The only thing he could confirm was that such things probably only existed in treasure lands.
But treasure lands...
Chen An sighed silently.
It was difficult.
There should be several treasure lands within the Liang Kingdom.
After all, the environment in the main world was relatively better, so there were naturally more treasure lands.
Unfortunately, they were not easy to find, and even if he found them, without that unique crystal, he couldn't convert aura into Source Strength.
It was useless.
He could only put it aside for now.
Chen An sighed, his eyes looking into the distance.
Not far away, through his senses at the moment, Chen An could clearly feel the bustling atmosphere surrounding him.
The entire White Family's residence seemed to have come alive.
The reason for this was simple.
Bai Qing was coming back.
That's right, after nearly half a year, their group was finally coming back.
The people of the Bai Family were prepared to welcome them back.
Even Bai Zhilan's smile had increased significantly during this time, appearing much happier.
This was obvious.
Because Bai Zhilan's grandfather, Bai Mingli, was also part of this team, and there had been no news from him for so long.
The relationship between Bai Zhilan and Bai Mingli was good, so naturally, she would be very concerned under these circumstances.
With good news finally coming, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief in a timely manner.
Chen An also breathed a sigh of relief.
No mishaps were a good thing.
For him, Bai Qing and Bai Mingli were also quite important. One was a benefactor and good friend, and the other was his wife's grandfather, a respected elder.
Both of them had treated him quite well, so they naturally held a place in his heart.
Now that they were coming back, it couldn't have been better.
They were waiting in their residence, ready to hold a celebratory feast upon Bai Qing's return.
The group led by Bai Qing was very fast.
In just a few days, a long line of people appeared outside the White Family's residence.
Bai Mingli was at the forefront, leading the group on horseback, guiding everyone forward.
In addition, the other leaders were also among them.
Watching Bai Mingli's appearance, Bai Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief.
Compared to half a year ago, Bai Mingli's appearance had not changed much. Although his skin had darkened significantly, there were not many wounds on his body, and his appearance was not much different from before, indicating that he had not been injured.
Even his expression suggested that he had been doing fine in the past six months.
However, Chen An was somewhat surprised.
Because he did not see Bai Qing.
He knew Bai Qing's personality very well.
Although she was just a woman, her temperament was stronger than many men.
Normally, she would prefer to ride a horse and lead from the front rather than sit in a carriage.
But now he didn't see Bai Qing.
Something wasn't right.
Fortunately, shortly after, Chen An made a discovery.
Bai Qing slowly emerged from a carriage.
Compared to half a year ago, her appearance had also changed.
There wasn't much change in her appearance, she still looked the same, but her complexion was much paler, and she exuded a sense of weakness all over.
Although she could still maintain a calm demeanor, she appeared somewhat gloomy, which was quite different from her usual self.
What was going on here?
Chen An furrowed his brows, sensing that something was amiss.
There was clearly a problem with Bai Qing's current appearance.
Similarly, the attitudes of the people around seemed a bit off.
Although there didn't seem to be much change on the surface, both Bai Mingli and the others, after Bai Qing stepped out of the carriage, seemed to keep their eyes on Bai Qing, secretly observing her.
Well, things were definitely not right.
Chen An frowned inwardly, feeling puzzled.
He had realized that this time Bai Qing had probably experienced some stories.
But what exactly happened, he wasn't quite sure.
He had originally planned to go to Bai Mingli later to inquire subtly, but within a half day, he had already learned the situation.
