As soon as the beginner's gift package was opened, Li Hao was stunned.

What kind of idiotic system is this? Besides Treading Snow Without a Trace and 10 years of Attribute-less Inner Force, which he could understand, he truly didn't know the purpose of the rest.

Although the items weren't great, they were still the system's kind gesture. It would be a shame to throw them away, so Li Hao reluctantly accepted them into his system space.

"Extract Treading Snow Without a Trace and Internal Energy," Li Hao thought to himself.

A massive surge of energy entered Li Hao's body directly from the void in a process akin to a divine infusion. It then circulated through his meridians, finally settling in his Dantian.

The faint Internal Energy that was previously in his Dantian instantly expanded by nearly double.

Yin Zhiping studied the basic Internal Energy cultivation method of the Quanzhen Sect, a genuine Daoist method of cultivating Inner Elixir. It was said that achieving mastery could lead to Shatter the Void and Ascend in Broad Daylight.

Li Hao didn't know if he could ascend, but he knew he could fly now.

Grandmaster Level Treading Snow Without a Trace made him move through the forest like an afterimage, his figure flickering like a phantom.

"Bang, ouch..." Li Hao was moving too fast with Treading Snow Without a Trace and couldn't control himself, crashing directly into the trunk of a century-old tree, startling countless birds.

"Damn it, speeding is indeed not advisable. One wrong move and you could crash and die." But Li Hao had no time to linger. Dawn had broken, and if he didn't run now, Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl would catch up.

Li Hao didn't dwell on his destination and sped directly towards the south.

Hmph, I don't even know where I'm going myself. I refuse to believe Little Dragon Girl can find me, Li Hao praised his own cleverness inwardly.

And so, Li Hao ran for a full seven days, day and night. He drank mountain spring water when he was thirsty and roasted a mountain chicken when he was hungry. Life was quite comfortable.

However, he didn't know that his escape had caused great trouble for hundreds of Daoists from the Quanzhen Sect.

As soon as Little Dragon Girl's acupoints were unblocked, she immediately stormed the gates of the Quanzhen Sect, demanding that Qiu Chuji hand over Yin Zhiping.

As the leading figure of the Quanzhen Sect, how could Qiu Chuji submit to the threat of a young girl? Moreover, Yin Zhiping was his prized disciple; he couldn't just hand him over because she asked.

But Little Dragon Girl's faction was too terrifying. Western Venom Ouyang Feng alone was someone he couldn't handle. He could only seal the gates and prevent his disciples from leaving or entering, to avoid unnecessary casualties.

"Hengyang City." Li Hao stared at the three large characters on the city wall, completely bewildered.

Damn, I'm so fast. I covered this much distance in seven days. If this were the Blue Star and I joined a marathon, I'd be a world champion for sure!

"Old man, do you want to come in and have some fun!" Outside Yingchun Tower in Hengyang City, a group of women dressed flamboyantly stood on the upper floor, waving their handkerchiefs and beckoning to passing customers.

The madam at the entrance even ran up and enthusiastically pulled at Li Hao, but he pushed her away in disdain.

What kind of scene haven't I seen on the Blue Star? When art school and nursing school students had holidays, the high heels and black stockings with long legs outside the school gates were far more shocking than this.

Not to mention that, but the low-cut tops and hip-hugging skirts in the bathhouses were hundreds of times better than this.

As soon as Li Hao entered Hengyang City, he found a wealthy family, borrowed some silver and gold leaves, and then bought a few sets of clothes for a young master. He also acquired a long sword forged from refined steel. Walking on the road, he looked like a handsome, dashing, and elegant young man.

Yin Zhiping was only in his early twenties. Coupled with the youth-preserving effects of Daoist cultivation, he looked like he was only 17 or 18, incredibly youthful.

"Guest, please come in." At the entrance of Huiyan Tower, a waiter welcomed Li Hao in. They had the ability to discern people and could naturally tell who had the means to dine at the restaurant.

"Give me one of everything on your signature menu, and a pot of good wine." Li Hao threw a silver ingot onto the table.

"Certainly, honored guest, please wait. The food and wine will be served shortly." Li Hao's generosity made the waiter extremely happy.

A table of food and wine would cost at most half a silver ingot; the rest, hehe...

"This is great!" Li Hao was exhausted physically and mentally from fleeing day and night. Now that he had recovered, he should relax properly. It was just that the wine was a bit lacking, bland as water.

"Waiter, find me a table. I want to eat." Just as Li Hao was complaining about the poor quality of the wine, a burly man with a short saber hanging from his waist pushed a beautiful young nun inside.

"Guest, I'm truly sorry, but the inn is full, there's no..."

"Isn't there an empty seat here? My brother shouldn't mind if I sit here, right!" The burly man slammed his saber onto the table, his meaning clear.

"As you wish." Li Hao frowned. He preferred to keep a low profile and avoid trouble, but he wasn't afraid of it either.

With twenty years of Internal Energy, he was considered a top-tier expert in the martial world. Coupled with Grandmaster Level Treading Snow Without a Trace, if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.

"Spirited! Little brother, you're a good fellow. Tian Boguang considers you a friend." The burly man chuckled, a rough, unrefined aura radiating from him.

"Lone Traveler Tian Boguang?" Li Hao asked doubtfully.

"That is I. Little brother has heard of me." Tian Boguang didn't seem surprised. Who in the martial world didn't know the notorious Lone Traveler Tian Boguang?

"I haven't heard of you, only seen your name. Then this beautiful lady must be novice nun Yi Lin." Li Hao asked immediately.

"This nun is Yi Lin. Greetings, benefactor." Yi Lin's temperament was as gentle and lovely as in the stories.

However, her current impression of Li Hao wasn't good. He called someone a beauty right from the start. Although he was speaking the truth, it seemed too frivolous.

Who didn't know Tian Boguang, the great lecher in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer? He caught a girl, but the protagonist kept interfering, and he couldn't get his hands on her for many days. In the end, he was physically castrated by the girl's father.

When watching this drama, the viewers were all cursing Tian Boguang for being stupid, incredibly stupid.

At this point, the protagonist should appear, Li Hao muttered to himself.

Just then, a handsome young man, covered in wounds, wearing a tattered grey robe, carrying a wine gourd at his waist, and using a fine steel sword as a walking stick, hobbled in.

"I say, Brother Linghu, are we destined to clash or what? Do you have to pester me like this over a little nun?" Seeing the handsome young man walk straight to his side and sit down, Tian Boguang said irritably.

"Brother Tian, how can you say that? This little nun and I are not related, why would I fight you for her? Besides, I, Linghu Chong, am famous for my love of wine and gambling. As the saying goes: encountering a nun and gambling always leads to a loss. I'd rather avoid this little nun than save her."

"I just hit it off with Brother Tian and thought I'd spar with you." Linghu Chong said with a grimace.

It seemed his injuries were quite serious.
