Astral Apostle

Although Frostwood Village was small, it also boasted a simple inn. At the last minute, he found a few villagers to help out in the kitchen and barely managed to receive the members of the grain collection team. There were more than ten tables in the open air to provide food for the grain collection team.

The people from the grain collection team chatted as they ate and drank, entertaining the villagers of Frostwood Village.

Reiner and a group of children from the village gathered around them and listened to the story outside, intoxicated.

When Zhou Jing returned with sweat all over his body, he saw a lively scene.

Looking at the dozens of grain collectors who were eating and drinking, Zhou Jing ignored them. The only thought in his mind was to fill his stomach, so he went straight to the back kitchen of the tavern to get two sets of freshly cooked dishes. They were something that looked like potatoes, and they were steaming hot.

When the chef saw that it was Zhou Jing, he did not stop him. The Mutant Beast Hunters had this privilege.

Zhou Jing returned to the house with the food and casually settled Ross’ portion. Then, he stayed in the house and guided Ross in learning the breathing technique.

This was something he had to do every night when he personally descended. It was simply as troublesome as tutoring a child.

The red glow faded, and the moonlight fell.

The grain collectors who came to visit were full and rested.

The night gradually deepened. Outside the house, it was no longer noisy and became as quiet as usual.

After a tiring night of tutoring, Zhou Jing angrily asked Ross to make the bed. He walked to the window and prepared to close the curtains and turn off the lights to sleep.

However, just as he was about to lower the curtains, Zhou Jing suddenly noticed a few suspicious figures through the window. They were moving in the village and had just turned a corner not far away, disappearing from his sight.

With a quick glance, he recognized one of them. It was the goateed man he had discovered that morning.

“Huh? Why aren’t they sleeping at night? What are they wandering around the village for?”

Zhou Jing’s heart skipped a beat.

He thought for a moment and called for Ross to follow him. The two of them climbed out of the window and quietly followed these people.

...

Zhou Jing’s agility was astonishing, and it was difficult for ordinary people to discover him. As for Ross, he had [Night Camouflage], [Light Steps], and other stealth characteristics. He was even better at tracking and hiding. Zhou Jing sometimes could not even sense his existence, let alone have problems.
