The brothel was bustling with noise and excitement.
Everyone was drinking and chatting to their heart's content. They had not been so happy in a long time and swore that they would not leave until they were drunk. In front of the stage, Liu Zhengtang's words stunned Lu An.
Training?
Lu An nodded without hesitation and said to Liu Zhengtang, "Let's go."
Liu Zhengtang laughed and said, "I now think that it's natural for you to have such strength. I've never seen a young man as hardworking as you."
Lu An smiled and asked directly, "What is the training that Alliance Master is talking about?"
Seeing that Lu An cared about it, Liu Zhengtang did not delay and said directly, "Four hundred kilometers east of Black Wolf City is a medium-sized mining area. It's considered an ownerless land and is being developed by the Small Alliance to grow some materials. However, there was news recently that there was a purple gold mine there. The price of purple gold is a hundred times that of gold, so the Blood Symbol Alliance immediately sent people there.
"If the Blood Symbol Alliance could get the news, the other alliances would naturally be able to as well. The Blood Symbol Alliance and the Iron Saber Alliance also went. Not only them, but the Alliance Alliance in the neighboring Guang Yi City also went. The few alliances confronted each other several times and had many conflicts, resulting in many casualties.
"Now that the Blood Symbol Alliance and the Iron Saber Alliance have left, we are the only alliance left in Black Wolf City. However, there are still three other alliances in Guang Yu City that have been in the purple gold mine, and they are not weaker than us. The current situation is that the four alliances each have their own mining areas and do not interfere with each other. However, the purple gold mine in the core has not been allocated yet. That is the real big mining area. "
Hearing Liu Zhengtang's words, Lu An frowned slightly and asked, "Alliance Master wants me to go and take the purple gold mine?"
"That's right!" Liu Zhengtang nodded and said seriously, "If we can take the purple gold mine, the Blood Symbol Alliance will receive a huge amount of financial support. At that time, even the Blood Symbol Alliance and the Iron Saber Alliance will be slightly inferior!"
Lu An was not excited at all. Instead, he frowned slightly and asked, "What does Alliance Master want me to do?"
"That's up to you." Liu Zhengtang looked at Lu An and said in a deep voice, "Do you want to kill the other three families, or do you want them to leave? Or do you want to use other methods to take over the Violet Gold Mine? You are the Vice Alliance Master. You can use any of the Blood Symbol Alliance's resources as you wish. "
Lu An's frown deepened as his mind raced. Strictly speaking, this matter could not be considered as training, because it was not a simple exchange of blows. However, this matter was somewhat interesting because Lu An had never done such a thing before.
Liu Zhengtang looked at Lu An and did not disturb him. He knew that it was up to Lu An whether to do it or not. He could not force him. However, if this matter was handed over to Lu An, he would be most at ease.
After a long while, Lu An turned to Liu Zhengtang and said, "Okay, I'll go."
"I was waiting for you to say that!" Liu Zhengtang slammed the table and said happily, "Since that's the case, I'll toast to you first. Thank you for your contributions to the Blood Symbol Alliance!"
Lu An smiled and drank the wine, but all his thoughts were on how to deal with this matter.

Two days later.
For the entire afternoon and night, everyone was drunk from the tincture. Everyone asked where Lu An had gone in the past month. Lu An did not say that he had gone to Evil Mountain. Instead, he said that he had gone to a remote mountain forest to cultivate. That was all.
Because they had been drinking for an entire day, most of them were still drunk the next day. Their bodies were still tired. The people who set off were the day after tomorrow, which was today.
Everyone was a Heavenly Master. Today, everyone was sober and full of energy. As the Vice Alliance Master, Lu An had personally gone to the Violet Gold Mine. The Blood Symbol Alliance had given Lu An a very complete team. There were not many Heavenly Masters in the team. Because the Heavenly Masters had always been guarding the Violet Gold Mine, the team was filled with maids that served Lu An. This made Lu An very uncomfortable.
Lu An did not want to bring so many maids with him. He had also told Liu Zhengtang that he did not need these maids to take care of him. However, Liu Zhengtang used the reason that the Vice Alliance Master of the Blood Symbol Alliance could not be seen as a joke by others. In the end, under Lu An's insistence, he only brought three maids with him.
However, the three maids that Liu Zhengtang had chosen for Lu An were all very beautiful. Although they were not Heavenly Masters, they were considered agile among ordinary people and knew how to ride horses. The four of them mounted their horses and quickly rushed towards the Violet Gold Mine.
However, four hundred miles was too far. It was impossible to make it in one day. The four of them could only rest in a small town halfway and find an inn.
The inn in the small town was very simple, but Lu An did not mind. Seeing that Lu An had brought three beautiful maids with him at such a young age, the inn's waiter's eyes were filled with envy. After all, maids and slaves were basically the same. They could do whatever they wanted.
Lu An did not pay attention to these people's gazes, nor did he explain. He booked four rooms, one for each of the three maids. On the way, he had told the three maids that he did not need them to take care of him. They could just treat it as a trip.
In fact, the three maids really wanted to serve Lu An. After all, they had seen Lu An's heroic appearance that day. As the saying went, beauties loved heroes. How could they not be moved by such a young hero? However, under Lu An's orders, the three of them could only return to their own rooms to rest.
At night, Lu An sat cross-legged in his room and cultivated. After about two hours, his brows suddenly furrowed and he opened his eyes.
In order to ensure his own safety, Lu An had long since gotten used to cultivating with the Scorching Nine Suns activated. Thus, he could sense everything within one mile of him. He sensed that three Heavenly Masters had entered the range of the Scorching Nine Suns and were walking in his direction.
As expected, all three Heavenly Masters had entered the inn. Generally speaking, if they were in a hurry, they would travel during the day. Why would they come to this inn to rest so late? Lu An thought for a moment, then pushed open the door and walked to the end of the corridor. He looked at the three people below the stage from the corner.
Although the three of them were dressed like people from Black Wolf City, Lu An felt that their clothes were very awkward and unnatural. Fortunately, the three of them were sitting very close to Lu An. In addition, with Lu An's strength, he could clearly hear what they were saying.
"We finally found some news. I didn't think that the Blood Symbol Alliance would actually send that Lu An to the Purple Gold Mine. This is big news!"
"That's right. We have to hurry back and inform them so that they can prepare in advance. This Lu An is too strong. It's best to let the Alliance's experts kill him directly to prevent future troubles! "
"That's right. I heard that he's only a Level 3 Heavenly Master. I don't know how he can actually fight with a Level 5 Heavenly Master. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I definitely wouldn't believe it. We can't let the Alliance lower their guard. We have to inform them quickly! "
"That's right! They definitely don't know what Lu An looks like. We have to go back and draw a portrait for them. Hurry up and eat. After eating, we'll continue our journey through the night! "
"Okay!"
After speaking, the three of them immediately wolfed down their food. In the corner of the second floor, Lu An's figure had already disappeared.
The three of them quickly finished their meal and quickly left the inn. They rode their horses and hurried forward. In front of them was a dense forest. After the forest was a flat plain. The three of them couldn't be more familiar with this road. They quickly rode their horses forward.
The three horses galloped through the forest. The sound of their hooves was very hurried. In the dark night, the visibility in front of them wasn't very far. At this moment, the three horses suddenly let out a long neigh and all of them stopped!
The horses raised their front legs and almost threw the three of them off their backs. If it weren't for their high strength, they might have really been thrown off.
The three of them firmly held onto the reins and sat on the horses' backs. Then, they looked in front of them.
They saw a figure standing in the forest. In the darkness, it was difficult to see the figure's face. One of them shouted, "Who are you? How dare you block our path. Do you want to die?!"
However, the black figure in front of them didn't answer. Instead, he just looked at them quietly. The three of them looked at each other and nodded in unison. The three of them leaped off their horses and attacked the black shadow together for safety's sake.
However, when they got close enough to the black shadow and saw the face of the black shadow, their bodies trembled, and their forward momentum came to a halt. However, the inertia was too great, and they instantly lost their balance. The three of them fell to the ground, right at the feet of the black shadow!
Lu An looked down at the three of them and said in a low voice, "From now on, you will answer whatever I ask. There is no second chance."
