Strongest Scammer: Scamming The World, One Death At A Time-Chapter 804: Over Two Months Of Trance

Seeing such cuisine within the Slaughtered Moon Divine Blood Sect was somewhat unusual for Han Yu.

The sect's culture revolved heavily around Blood Qi cultivation, and many disciples preferred consuming raw or minimally prepared beast meat to absorb its energy directly.

The Blood River itself provided an endless supply of beasts filled with rich Blood Qi. Because of that, refined meals like this were often overlooked. But they certainly existed.

And right now, Han Yu was grateful for them.

He sat down immediately.

Then he began eating.

There was no pretense of elegance.

After two months without food, his body demanded nourishment urgently.

Han Yu devoured the spirit rice first, the warm grains filling his stomach almost instantly. He followed that with the soups, drinking deeply from the bowls as the rich broths restored his strength.

The stir-fried herbs disappeared quickly as well.

Within minutes the table was nearly empty.

Han Yu wiped his mouth and leaned back slightly.

Then he pressed the service array again.

"Another round."

The puppets obeyed without hesitation.

Soon another full set of dishes arrived.

Han Yu repeated the process.

Only after finishing the second complete meal did he finally feel satisfied.

The sharp pangs of hunger faded away, replaced by a comfortable warmth spreading through his body.

The puppets remained standing nearby until he issued another command.

"You may go."

They bowed slightly and left the room.

"Quite polite... They definitely spent extra time in adding these functions since they're meant for a Peak Head." Han Yu reckoned.

Han Yu stretched his arms briefly.

"Now that that's settled…"

His thoughts turned to the next matter.

Informing the Second Kidney Peak Head. Han Yu needed to report his success. He expanded his spirit sense and attempted to locate the old man within the residence.

But his perception could not penetrate the upper levels of the building.

Protective arrays blocked the path completely.

He walked upstairs instead and noticed that the main hall above was quiet.

Empty.

Han Yu frowned slightly.

"Not here?"

He checked several of the adjacent chambers, but none of them contained the Peak Head.

The residence felt unusually silent.

Han Yu took out his communication jade slip and sent a message.

'Peak Head, I have completed the initial stage of the Freezing Abyss Glacial Art.'

He waited.

A minute passed.

Then several more.

No reply came.

Han Yu sighed softly.

"It seems he's busy."

That was not surprising.

With the Cold Silk Orchid finally in his possession, the Second Kidney Peak Head would likely be focusing intensely on his own breakthrough. The Dao Treading realm was a step that cultivators could spend centuries if not a thousand years pursuing.

If the man was currently in seclusion or deep cultivation, he would not respond easily.

Han Yu decided not to disturb him further.

Instead, another concern surfaced in his mind.

Two months had passed.

He needed to check on Meng Jueyan and Xuan Qing.

Han Yu closed his eyes briefly and reached out through the spiritual connection he shared with Chitterfang.

The link activated quickly.

The small rat's familiar consciousness responded almost immediately.

"Master!"

Han Yu smiled faintly.

"How are things over there?"

"Everything is fine!" Chitterfang replied enthusiastically through the mental link. "The two humans are still here. They eat a lot though."

Han Yu chuckled quietly.

"That's normal."

"Do you still have supplies?"

"Yes! Plenty!" Chitterfang said proudly.

Han Yu relaxed.

'Good.'

That meant the preparations he had made before entering cultivation had been sufficient.

Still, the idea crossed his mind again.

Perhaps it would be safer to move them here.

The Kidney Peak was far more secure than the outer disciple caves. If Meng Jueyan and Xuan Qing were living closer to him, it would also make communication easier.

He would need to consider that carefully.

For now, though, there was no immediate danger.

Han Yu ended the connection with Chitterfang and checked his jade slip again.

Several messages had accumulated during his time in seclusion.

Most of them were from Qing Luan and the people she had stationed near the mining operation.

Han Yu opened them one by one.

The updates were detailed.

Just as he had predicted earlier, the mining process was progressing extremely slowly.

The first section of the mine had turned out to contain less Violet Spirit Quartz than expected. The deposits were scattered between layers of Blood Vein Sandstone, forcing the miners to proceed cautiously. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The clans overseeing the operation had no choice but to maintain a slow extraction pace.

Every fragment of Violet Spirit Quartz was valuable.

Rushing the process would only destroy the crystals.

Han Yu read the final update carefully.

There had been no deaths.

Not a single slave had died since the mining operation began.

In fact, compared to the brutal conditions within the sect itself, the slaves were currently living relatively stable lives.

They were fed regularly and forced to work at a careful pace.

Han Yu leaned back slightly after reading the messages.

"For now… that's good."

But he knew that situation would not last forever.

Eventually the deeper sections of the mine would open.

And when that happened, everything would become far more dangerous.

Which meant he still needed to find a way to enter the mining operation himself.

Preferably with authority.

Now that he had successfully cultivated the Freezing Abyss Glacial Art…

That opportunity might finally be within reach.

After checking the messages from Qing Luan and confirming that Meng Jueyan and Xuan Qing were safe, Han Yu sat quietly in the living quarters for a few moments.

His stomach was finally full.

His body had recovered from the long starvation during cultivation.

And more importantly, his mind was calm.

Now that the Freezing Abyss Glacial Art had reached initial success, another thought surfaced in his mind.

The Moon Conquering Divine Art.

It was the second technique he had obtained from the Inheritance Stelae, though officially he had not told anyone about it except hinting its existence to the Second Kidney Peak Head.
