For several days in a row, Ping'an County had been very peaceful.
There were no more missing children, nor any horrifying family annihilation incidents.
But Chen Yuan felt the hidden undercurrents within.
Perhaps a conspiracy was brewing.
However, on the surface, Chen Yuan remained very calm, greeting Zhu Sihai and then sticking to a routine of going to work and cultivating at home every day.
After acquiring the Yellow Jade Pill, Chen Yuan didn't immediately consume and refine it.
He had swallowed too many Tiger Bone Pills before, which led to a buildup of pill toxins, and the Marrow Cleansing Spirit Pearl was still slowly expelling them from his body.
This gave Chen Yuan some relief; he had thought that after purifying those pill toxins, the Marrow Cleansing Spirit Pearl might completely lose its effectiveness, but it seemed he had been overly concerned.
That day.
The sky darkened very early, and Chen Yuan's expression was as calm as usual when he returned home.
