Immortality: Starts with seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster!

**Chapter 11: God is Good, Another Eighth-Grade Opportunity**

"No way, these guys actually have so much money on them?"

"A full thirty-five taels of silver."

Xiao Fan stepped forward and searched the belongings left behind by Zheng Wenbing and the others, discovering a full thirty-five taels of silver—a huge sum of money.

Even if they were members of the Dragon King Gang, it was impossible for them to earn such a large amount.

There is no doubt that Zheng Wenbing and his companions must have plundered the wealth of the fishermen to acquire this money.

It hadn't been long since they had collected the money, so there were only thirty-five taels left.

Had it been a while longer, according to their lavish spending habits, it would have been all spent long ago.

"Get rich."

Xiao Fan was very satisfied. If he used all the money to buy food, it would cover his and his wife's living expenses for several years, and they would live relatively luxuriously.

Even if he didn't go fishing and just sat there eating nothing, he could still survive for a long time.

He has to say that Zheng Wenbing and his crew have brought him great gains.

No wonder there are so many people in this world who are willing to take risks.

Once successful, the rewards are truly great.

However, the risks involved are very high. If you encounter a tough problem, it can lead to a dead end.

At this moment, a message came from the depths of his consciousness: "You spent countless hardships, fought to the death, defeated the strong with the weak, and killed four members of the Dragon King Gang. After surviving a killing calamity, you obtained an eighth-grade opportunity and one hundred and fifty luck points."

Perceiving this message, Xiao Fan immediately knew that his fate was at work.

After surviving this disaster, his luck had skyrocketed.

"Is it an eighth-grade opportunity?"

With a thought, Xiao Fan clicked on a chance spot in his sea of ​​consciousness, and then a stream of information poured in.

"Three days later, at noon, go to the reed area of ​​Yunmeng Lake to obtain an eighth-grade opportunity."

Upon sensing this message, Xiao Fan immediately recognized the location. It was a lake near Osmanthus Village, full of reeds, but basically deserted.

After all, there are very few fish in that area.

The fishermen naturally don't want to go to a place like that. They are busy making a living, so why would they bother?

However, if he went to that location at noon three days later, he could actually obtain an eighth-grade opportunity, which made him very eager.

The previous eighth-grade opportunity had benefited him greatly, and he was curious about what kind of opportunity this one would be.

"Oops, a wolf is coming."

At this moment, Xiao Fan's expression changed as he heard the howling of wolves coming from the jungle in the distance.

His heightened senses reminded him that he was in great danger, every pore on his body alert.

He knew that many wild wolves lived in the nearby mountains and forests.

Some fishermen passing through here occasionally encountered wolves and were eaten by them.

If he were surrounded by wild wolves, he would be in serious trouble.

Whoosh!

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan did not hesitate. He took the thirty-five taels of silver from Zheng Wenbing, grabbed the food packed in sacks, and immediately ran toward Osmanthus Village.

He didn't even have time to deal with the corpses left behind.

However, the sudden arrival of these wild wolves could be a blessing in disguise, as they might help him deal with the four corpses.

In this way, he saved a lot of effort in disposing of the bodies and erasing any traces.

After running for an hour, Xiao Fan finally saw the familiar houses of Osmanthus Village and breathed a sigh of relief. At least he would not encounter any danger upon returning here.

Boom~~

At this time, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and heavy rain began to fall.

The rain poured down, like water splashing, continuously washing the earth.

Not long after Xiao Fan left, a dozen wild wolves emerged from the jungle. They caught the scent of blood and saw the four human corpses on the ground.

Each wolf's eyes glowed green as they rushed forward excitedly, biting fiercely, their jaws staining with blood. They regarded the flesh as today's dinner.

Simultaneously, heavy rain fell, washing away all traces on the ground.

Whether it was footprints or blood, all disappeared without a trace under the deluge.

It seemed as if a mysterious force had erased these traces.

But Xiao Fan was unaware that such a thing had happened.

He simply felt lucky. The moment it started pouring heavily was right after he returned to Osmanthus Village.

If he had been a bit later, he might have been a drowned rat.

...

Osmanthus Village, inside the Xiao family's tiled-brick house.

It was already evening now, with the sun setting in the west.

Mu Qingyao had prepared the meal, and steaming food was placed on the table, but she hadn't taken a single bite; instead, she stood up from time to time, looking out the window.

Obviously, she was waiting for Xiao Fan to return.

She knew that Xiao Fan was now a warrior in the Skin Tempering Realm, and his strength had greatly increased.

But the outside world was chaotic; who knew what could happen?

Every time he went out, it was essentially a risk.

Before Xiao Fan arrived, she remained very worried, even feeling panicked.

Dong dong dong!!!

At this moment, there was a rhythmic knock at the door.

The door had long been locked by Mu Qingyao.

It could only be opened from the inside.

"Who is it?"

Mu Qingyao did not open the door but picked up the sharp silver kitchen knife in her hand, remaining vigilant. 

She knew that sometimes the person knocking might not be her own man; it could also be a stranger.

If she opened the door hastily, who knew what could happen?

Sometimes, some gangsters might pretend to be villagers to deceive individuals into opening the door.

Once the door was opened, it might lead to disaster.

"Yaoyao, it's me."

Xiao Fan's voice came from outside.

"Yes, brother."

Hearing this, Mu Qingyao was immediately overjoyed. No matter how cautious she was, she still didn't rush to open the door. Instead, she peered through the peephole of the wooden door. Then she saw Xiao Fan's figure and the large bag of grain he was carrying, along with a lot of firewood, rice, oil, and salt bought from Tonghe County.

Seeing this, she quickly opened the door, welcomed Xiao Fan in, and then hurriedly locked the wooden door.

"It's great that you're finally back! Do you know how worried I've been about you?"

"But why is there blood on you?"

Mu Qingyao was overjoyed, but immediately noticed the blood staining Xiao Fan.

This both surprised and concerned her; it was truly unbelievable.

There was no doubt that this journey had not been as safe as imagined.

"It's okay, it's just that I encountered some robbers on the road, and I killed them."

Xiao Fan said lightly, without intending to elaborate on what had happened.

After all, the matter of him killing Zheng Wenbing's men was quite severe. If it were exposed, it would surely provoke the wrath of the Dragon King Gang.

Even though Mu Qingyao wouldn't disclose it, knowing would still certainly cause her great worry.
