In just a quarter of an hour, the wild goose flew past three mountains and arrived at the Inner Peak.
Lu An walked down from the wild goose. After bowing and thanking the elder, he went to the palace. It was just past morning and everyone should be cultivating in the palace.
Sure enough, when Lu An entered the palace, all the disciples were there, including Wu Chengshan. They knew that today was the day Lu An would return.
The problem was that Wu Chengshan was not the only one in the palace. There was also a Heavenly Healing Master. This Heavenly Healing Master was the best Heavenly Healing Master in the Inner Peak and was prepared to treat Lu An's injuries.
However, when Lu An stood at the entrance of the palace completely fine, everyone was stunned.
His essence, energy, and spirit … seemed to be full!
However, everyone quickly surrounded Lu An and asked anxiously, "Lu An, how are you?"
"I'm fine, I'm not injured at all." Lu An smiled and said to his Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters. He then walked in front of his Master and said respectfully, "Disciple greets Master."
Wu Chengshan looked at Lu An who did not have any injuries on the surface and was shocked. In fact, he was already shocked that Lu An could survive. Now that Lu An was perfectly fine, it was even more unbelievable.
In order to verify whether Lu An was injured or not, Wu Chengshan released his energy to sense carefully. When he realized that Lu An's body was not injured, he was stunned. However, when he realized Lu An's strength, he was shocked!
"You're already at the late stage of Level 2?" Wu Chengshan looked at Lu An in shock and asked.
When he said that, the surrounding disciples were stunned and looked at Lu An in shock. Lu An only smiled and said, "It was a blessing in disguise. I just broke through the day before yesterday."
"…"
Everyone looked at Lu An with their mouths wide open. Gongye Qingshan gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "Monster!"
It took a while for everyone to recover from their shock. But no matter what, Lu An was fine, and his strength had even improved. This made everyone happy.
"If Dong Lujiang finds out that not only are you uninjured, but your strength has also increased, he will probably die from anger," Shang Gong said with a chuckle.
Upon hearing the name Dong Lujiang, Lu An frowned slightly. It was obvious that this person wanted to kill him. On the mountain peak, this person had already been listed as a threat by Lu An.
Lu An had just returned and was surrounded by everyone. They asked him about the Cliff of Reflection for a long time. After all, he had never been there before. Lu An did not hide anything and answered them one by one. After chatting for a long time, Wu Chengshan clapped his hands and said, "That's enough. It's time to get down to business."
Hearing their master's words, all the disciples immediately stood properly. Wu Chengshan looked at his disciple with satisfaction and said, "Before the class, let's talk about one thing. Recently, there have been bandits disturbing the villages on the North Slope of the Dacheng Heavenly Mountain. Among them, the bandit leader was a Level Two Heavenly Master, which was not a big deal. The higher-ups sent one or two disciples to deal with it. This time, it's our turn. "
With that, Wu Chengshan looked at his disciples and said, "Tell me, which one of you wants to go?"
Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed. This was a good job. Anyone who had stayed in the Inner Peak for a long time would want to go out. This was a good opportunity to relax.
Immediately, all the disciples raised their hands and quickly recommended themselves to their master. Lu An frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he also raised his hand.
Lu An raising his hand was unexpected. In their hearts, Lu An was a person who was afraid of trouble and did not like to meddle in other people's business. Especially Wu Chengshan. Huang Zhizhong had already told him about what happened in the Sky Ascension Tower.
"You want to go?" Wu Chengshan looked at Lu An and asked curiously.
"Yes." Lu An thought for a while and nodded. "I want to go out for a walk."
"That's true. After staying in that place for a long time, you should go out for a walk and relax." Wu Chengshan nodded and said, "Do you need someone to go with you?"
"I want to go by myself." Lu An said apologetically.
"That's good. Go out and relax by yourself. It doesn't matter if you come back later." Wu Chengshan said, "I'll give you half a month. Just come back in half a month."
"Yes." Lu An smiled and said, "Yes, master!"

At noon, Lu An simply tidied himself up. After preparing some dry food, he left the Dacheng Sky Mountain.
In fact, he did not go down the mountain to relax. It was because the appointed time with Beauty Yang was approaching.
He had made an appointment with Beauty Yang that he would pick her up in two months. As of now, there were only seven days left before it would be two months. After he settled the matters in the village, he could pick up Beauty Yang.
As his strength increased, Lu An did not feel safe. Instead, he felt that he was becoming more and more dangerous. His own strength was limited. He was not a conceited person. Indeed, he needed the help of the outside world.
Leading a horse from the Dacheng Sky Mountain, Lu An quickly went down the mountain and rushed to the village in the north. The village was quite a distance away from the Dacheng Sky Mountain. It would take a full day to get to the village. Fortunately, the village was very close to the Sacred Fire Gate.
After a day of rushing, Lu An successfully arrived at the village around noon the next day. It was not a small village. Standing on the hill, he could see that there were probably hundreds of families. The village was surrounded by farmlands. It was enough for the village to be self-sufficient.
Lu An led the horse and rushed to the village. If the strongest among the mountain bandits was a Level Two Heavenly Master, it would not be a problem for him. He would deal with the enemy as quickly as possible and then go to Purple Lake City.
Soon, Lu An arrived at the entrance of the village. It was lunchtime. Every family was cooking outside the door. The aroma of food filled the air and Lu An's appetite was aroused.
Lu An got down from the horse and led it into the village. Soon, the villagers realized that an outsider had entered the village. They hurriedly rushed over and surrounded Lu An.
When they saw that it was a young man with neat clothes and did not look like a bandit, they heaved a sigh of relief. A burly man walked out and asked Lu An with a frown, "Who are you? Could it be that you're a young master from a wealthy family and got lost here? "
Hearing the man's unfriendly words, Lu An was stunned. He did not mind and said, "I'm a disciple of the Dacheng Sky Mountain. I was ordered to deal with the mountain bandits here."
A disciple of the Dacheng Sky Mountain?
Everyone was stunned when they heard that. Then, they looked at Lu An in astonishment. They did not expect that this scholarly looking young man was actually a powerful Heavenly Master!
Immediately, everyone's attitude toward Lu An changed drastically. They respectfully invited Lu An into the village and served him good food and drinks. This made Lu An feel a little uncomfortable.
"I'm here under orders. You don't have to be so polite," Lu An said with a smile.
"You're a Heavenly Master. How can you not be polite?" The burly man, who was a little rude and unreasonable earlier, now looked at Lu An with a smile and said, "You're here to help us kill the bandits. Of course, we have to treat you well!"
Lu An smiled simply when he heard that. He had lunch with the enthusiastic villagers serving him. Then, he asked the people around him, "Where are the bandits?"
"Heavenly Master, are you going now?" the burly man asked Lu An.
"Yes." Lu An nodded and said, "The sooner I finish this, the sooner I can return to report."
"But … we don't know where the bandits are." The burly man was a little embarrassed and said, "They always come looking for trouble with us. How would we dare to look for them?"
Hearing the burly man's words, Lu An was startled but nodded his head. Indeed, the burly man was right. It was him who did not consider it. However, if that was the case, he did not know how long he would be delayed here.
"But, those bandits will definitely come again soon!" Another person said.
Lu An was startled when he heard that. He turned his head and asked, "Why?"
"Because the money we paid last time was not enough." The burly man gritted his teeth and explained, "Every time we don't pay enough, a woman will be taken away as interest. Then, they will come again a few days later. The last time they came was six days ago. "
Lu An frowned slightly when he heard that. The bandits were indeed evil people. This time, he would not feel any psychological pressure when dealing with them.
At this moment, someone suddenly ran into the house from outside in a panic.
Seeing this person so flustered, all the villagers' hearts sank. They had a bad premonition.
"The bandits … the bandits are here again!" The man panted and said, his voice trembling with fear.
Immediately, everyone's face changed dramatically. Everyone panicked. Everyone looked at Lu An, their bodies even trembling.
When Lu An heard the news, he naturally would not refuse. He was ordered to come and eat their food. Naturally, he had to do something.
Thus, Lu An stood up and said softly to everyone, "Let's go and see them."
