Tang San Finishes Scouting and Prepares to Steal the Immortal Herbs

This uninvited guest was none other than Tang San, who had long coveted the Immortal Herb and planned to steal Immortal Herb from the Lakeheart Island.

After arriving near the Lake of Life, Tang San did not rush or panic, but instead bravely charged towards the Lakeheart Island.

Instead, it quietly stood on the trunk of a large tree not far from the Lake of Life.

With his exposed eyes, he cautiously observed his surroundings, checking to see if anyone was passing by.

Although he had scouted the area many times during this period, he still had to be extremely careful when doing this kind of thing.

After all, if they were caught, it would be a huge problem.

With this in mind, Tang San became even more serious as he observed his surroundings, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

After observing the area and confirming that no one was nearby, Tang San finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the lake in the distance, and said softly:

"Call..."

"Great, it seems there really is no one around."

But thinking about it, it makes sense; a situation without people is the normal one.

After all, based on my observations over this period of time, most people in the Academy should be asleep at this hour.

Even if a few people aren't asleep, no one should come here, since it's so far from the student dormitories..."

At this point, Tang San chuckled lightly, but although he said that, the wariness in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

If he were to relive this experience with his memories intact, he would still choose to observe carefully before taking action.

After all, having learned from the failed case of dying after a mistake in a previous life, one wouldn't necessarily develop a psychological trauma related to theft.

However, Tang San still possessed an instinctive, subconscious behavior of observing before acting.

But this is actually normal.

After all, although Tang San liked treasures, he never intended to exchange his life for them.

As for jumping off a cliff to prove his resolve in his previous life?

Tang San responded to this by saying:

That was purely because he was only focused on escaping and didn't pay attention to the road ahead. As a result, he only realized there was no road ahead when he reached Hell's Peak.

At this moment, the elders who were tracking him also surrounded his rear, making it impossible for him to run away anymore, which is why he had no choice but to take this desperate measure.

Otherwise, he would still choose to continue running away.

After all, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

Moreover, given the circumstances at the time, jumping off the cliff was truly a last resort.

As a disciple of the Tang Sect, Tang San knew just how ruthless this assassin organization Tang Sect be:

Therefore, falling into the hands of the Tang Sect elders is far worse than jumping off a cliff.

After all, jumping off a cliff might not necessarily kill him, but if he fell into the hands of the Tang Sect elders, he would definitely suffer a fate worse than death.

Because the Tang Sect would absolutely not tolerate his actions of violating the sect rules or even betraying the Tang Sect, once he fell into the hands of the Tang Sect elders, even if he didn't die, he would be severely injured.

That's why Tang San chose to gamble by jumping off the cliff.

They won and survived, escaping death.

If you die, all is over, but at least you won't have to suffer anymore.

The result... was obvious: he didn't win the gamble, but he didn't die either; instead, he just kicked the bucket and transmigrated.

Therefore, Tang San, having a second life, approaches theft with such caution.

Thinking about this, Tang San suddenly realized that he was overthinking again.

Tang San shook his head, clearing his mind of distractions, then focused his gaze on the lake and whispered:

"Looking at it now, this is actually a good time."

Opportunity knocks but once.

"In that case, let's get started!"

After speaking, Tang San's eyes involuntarily turned to the small island in the center of the Lake of Life not far away.

His eyes were filled with an unwavering desire to possess, and an almost undisguised greed.

Ever since Tang San stumbled upon the Icefire Yin-Yang Well during his casual stroll on the first day of school, he was completely captivated by those dozens of Immortal Herbs.

Since that day, Tang San has had no time to attend to his studies at the Academy, and has completely forgotten Tang Hao's advice to come to the Academy to learn other cultivation methods.

The moment Tang San saw the Immortal Herb, he had already devoted his entire being to stealing Immortal Herb.

After all, in his opinion, Wu Tong's powerful talent was entirely due to consuming Immortal Herb that altered his aptitude.

Only in this way will Wu Tong be valued by the Godhood Inheritor.

Otherwise, with Wu Tong's Useless Martial Soul, how could he possibly possess such powerful strength?

Therefore, Tang San developed the illusion that he could do it too.

Tang San believed that as long as he also consumed the Immortal Herb, his talent would soar to great heights, and he would be able to rival or even surpass Wu Tong's talent.

At that time, gaining the favor of the Godhood Inheritor, catching up with Wu Tong's strength, and avenging his father and teacher will be just around the corner.

With this naive idea in mind, Tang San spent all his time racking his brains about how to steal the Immortal Herb.

All day long, he would scout around the Lake of Life, looking for the right time to act and making meticulous plans.

It wasn't until tonight that Tang San finally devised a plan to steal the Immortal Herb and prepared to put it into action.

"Call...

Now is the decisive moment.

The next move could be a matter of life and death.

Either you succeed, your talent becomes even stronger, and you rise rapidly in your career.

"Either fail, or run away..."

Taking a deep breath, Tang San spoke silently to himself, as if comforting or encouraging himself.

As the saying goes, "No madness, no life!"

Therefore, after speaking to himself in his heart, Tang San's eyes suddenly changed, and a chillingly fierce and crazy look appeared in his eyes.

"Now! Make your move!!!"

Having made his decision, Tang San didn't hesitate any longer and jumped straight down from the tree trunk.

As soon as he landed, Tang San immediately used the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track Lightness Skill to circulate his Soul Power in his legs.

Then it transformed into a strange ghostly figure and rushed towards the lake.

As it moved, not a sound was uttered, like a ghost without a physical form—empty, light, swift, and eerie...

Just as Tang San was approaching the Lake of Life.

Behind the big tree where he had been standing.
