The moon was dark and the wind was strong. The forest was so dark that it was difficult to walk.
On the way back, Lu An found Liu Hongchang and requested to go back early. Liu Hongchang also knew that he had enough prey, so he agreed.
Along the way, Lu An's brows never relaxed. It was only when he sat on a chair that he felt slightly better.
The reason he was in a bad mood was none other than Chen Wen.
Although it had been a month, he had never forgotten what the First Master had asked him to do. That was why when Liu Hongchang mentioned Chen Wen's name, he was shocked and immediately stopped. However, he really did not expect Chen Wen to be such a person.
Indeed, what Chen Wen said to him was sincere, and it was very likely that every word was true. However, this was not a reason for Lu An to forgive him. The reason was simple, because this was not a reason at all.
Beaten? Tortured? Humiliated?
Which slave did not suffer every day?
It was just words, just punches and kicks. However, the humiliation and torture that slaves suffered was something he could not imagine. All kinds of strange torture methods, so painful that they wanted to die. Compared to this, what was humiliation?
Lu An understood that different people received different treatment. If Chen Wen's words were heard by others, although they knew that he was wrong, they would feel that it was pardonable and understandable. However, if a slave resisted, who would sympathize and understand?
Resistance was only a path to death!
This was the reason why Lu An was so angry. Because of their different statuses, the things they did and the treatment they received were like heaven and earth!
Taking a deep breath, Lu An gradually calmed himself down. Indeed, after hearing Chen Wen's words, he understood Chen Wen. Chen Wen had his own difficulties. He wasn't angry at Chen Wen, but at the world.
Shaking his head, Lu An knew that he had gone overboard in front of Chen Wen. However, he did not want to think about these things now. He emptied his mind and closed his eyes to cultivate.
These days, he had been cultivating Scorching Sun Nine Suns. He wanted to prove that this technique was too difficult to cultivate. A seventh-grade heaven technique was indeed not that easy.
However, it wasn't as if he didn't have any results. The sun in his body was getting bigger and bigger, and he was releasing it faster and faster. It was almost instantaneous. The man in the black fog had said that when the sun in his body showed signs of breaking out, he could try to release it outside his body.
The sun inside the body and the sun outside the body were two completely different concepts. This was a qualitative leap. As long as he took this step, it would mean that Lu An had truly succeeded in his cultivation!
Feeling the scorching heat of the sun in his body, Lu An could already feel his body expanding. Day after day of cultivation, the sun in his body was finally big enough.
However, this was still not enough.
He still needed a month, and he needed to cultivate even more. He only needed an instant to form a huge sun in his body. After cultivating for so long, he didn't want to be impatient at the last moment. Otherwise, one wrong step and he might miss the best opportunity to break through.
Furthermore, the most important step of releasing the sun from his body was to turn it into nothingness.
Nothingness was an extremely mysterious thing. When the man in the black fog first explained this step to him, Lu An was dumbfounded.
After the man in the black fog explained a lot of things that Lu An couldn't understand, he was helpless. In the end, he used the simplest method to tell Lu An, which was to turn the sun in his body into its most ordinary form and release it outside his body.
The meaning was very simple. He didn't use his body as a carrier to form the sun. Instead, he used the sun's energy in his body to form the sun in the air. The human body's senses were the most sensitive, so it wasn't difficult to create a sun. However, it was very difficult to create a sun outside his body, especially when it was far away in the sky.
The man in the black fog had said that the Heavenly Master could use nine suns to surround an entire city. Lu An couldn't imagine how big and far a city could be and how high it could be in the sky.
However, Lu An wasn't in a hurry. He knew that everything had to be done one step at a time. What he needed to do now was to accumulate the sun in his body. As long as he could successfully convert it into sun energy, he would need to take a deep breath.
Cultivating the Scorching Sun Nine Suns didn't allow him to enter the state of sleep. However, he was full of energy now. He only needed to sleep for two hours a day. Hunting was already a waste of time. He had to use the rest of his time on cultivation.
As Han Ya said, he had to quickly become a level two Heavenly Master and leave this place.
Thus, in the dark straw hut, the air gradually became warmer. Finally, it became so hot that even the snow on the roof gradually melted.

The next morning.
Lu An woke up early and brought his prey to the canteen. When Lu An placed the wild bear and the spotted deer on the ground at the same time, it caused a commotion around him.
Lu An had brought enough prey that he didn't need to go hunting for a week.
Beside him, Chen Wen also placed the other half of the wild bear's carcass on the ground. This half of the carcass was enough for him to go hunting for five days. However, he kept his head down and didn't seem happy at all.
The chefs were also disciples here. However, their status was much higher than the hunters. Even the others had to curry favor with them. When the chefs looked at the wild beasts on the ground, they nodded in satisfaction and said, "We can eat for a few days!"
After the hunters left, Lu An had a simple breakfast and walked directly to the straw hut. Whether it was the Scorching Sun Nine Suns or the three secret manuals he brought yesterday, he needed to cultivate. He didn't want to waste any time.
However, just as he pushed open the fence and entered the courtyard, his body paused and he stopped. He turned around and saw Chen Wen following behind him.
"What's the matter?" Lu An frowned and asked.
Chen Wen was stunned. He scratched his head and revealed a bitter expression. Finally, he sighed and said softly, "I want to ask for your forgiveness. I also want … to be friends."
After saying that, Chen Wen looked up at Lu An with a determined gaze.
Lu An frowned even more. After looking at Chen Wen for a while, he turned around and said as he walked, "Come in."
Chen Wen was stunned. He suddenly laughed. He quickly followed Lu An into the courtyard.
Lu An didn't enter the house. Instead, he walked towards the stable. Pushing open the door, he took out some fodder from his ring and placed it on the clean ground. The black horse quickly started eating.
Chen Wen was stunned when he saw the black horse. His eyes were filled with astonishment. He pointed at the black horse and said, "My father actually gave it to you?"
Lu An nodded. He understood Chen Wen's surprise. Everyone who saw this horse would praise it generously.
Seeing Lu An focused on feeding the horse, Chen Wen's face was a little embarrassed. He thought for a while and said, "I came mainly to apologize to you. I made a mistake last night and almost got you killed …"
"It's okay." Lu An said without turning his head, "I don't care."
"…" Chen Wen was stunned. Although Lu An's tone was very calm, there was no anger. No matter how he thought about it, what he did last night was outrageous. How could the other party's anger dissipate so easily?
"Then …" Chen Wen didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a while, he said, "In order to express my apology, I can tell you everything I know. Didn't you just arrive the day before yesterday? There must be many things here that you don't know! "
Upon hearing this, Lu An's hand finally stopped.
That's right. He knew nothing about the Dacheng Sky Mountain. He only knew how to cultivate and hunt. He didn't know the other rules.
When Chen Wen saw Lu An's reaction, he hurriedly said, "So? What do you want to know? "
Lu An turned to look at Chen Wen. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Newbies hunting. Are the rules here really like this?"
As soon as he said this, Chen Wen's face was stunned. Then, it turned gloomy. He clenched his fists so tightly that they creaked. His entire body was exuding anger!
"Of course not!" Chen Wen gritted his teeth and said angrily.
"Then what's the original rule?" Lu An asked.
"The original rule?" Chen Wen sneered and said, "The original rule is that everyone is responsible for their own food, clothing, housing, and transportation! This only happens in this godforsaken place! "
