Setting Out Once More (Thanks to Wang Shaojie, the Great God Certified by Those Who Love Corsage Flowers)

Lu Yuan asked a few more questions after hearing this.

"Have any of the larger nearby cities shown any unusual changes in their purchasing? Or have you heard any news?"

Most of the townspeople said those cities had increased their demand for coal. Then one of them suddenly added something.

"They're not only demanding more coal. They've also become much stricter about medicinal herbs and people entering the city."

"Before, when I went with the Night Watcher to deliver coal, we only needed to show our Black Well Town badge to enter directly. Now we have to go through an inspection first. That never happened before."

"But the inspection wasn't too thorough. They just swept a stone in front of us, then let us in."

"Oh, is that so?" a townsman beside him chimed in. "Then it doesn't really matter."

But Lu Yuan caught a hint of something suspicious in it.

Scanning with a stone? It was most likely a Holy Light Stone, or something similar that could detect Eerie power.

Had Cold Crow City become like this too?

Later, someone asked Lu Yuan whether the Knight Academy was really as powerful as the legends claimed.

Clearly, the townspeople in the north knew far more about the Knight Academy than those in the south.

Lu Yuan merely smiled without answering and sank a little deeper into the water.

Laughter came in waves from the women's pool next door. Clearly, even the Blue Knight could not escape being interrogated.

At that moment, Oden suddenly woke up.

He was somewhat bewildered by his current situation. Only after raising his gaze did he realize Lu Yuan was soaking in a hot spring.

"I want to soak too!"

He howled once, then immediately wilted again.

No body, no soaking. Sigh...

Hearing Oden's dejected grumbling
