The Blood of Gold

The Hundred Thousand Mountains were huge, with forces of many different kinds. In the most dangerous area there were even primitive tribes who didn't respect any morals or rules. They would kill every outsider they met.

Along with this, there were ferocious beasts of prey and monsters in the mountain areas.

This was one of the reasons why the Jiang Mansion didn't easily allow Jiang Chen to go on an adventure there.

The Liulin River was the longest river in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It flowed through various parts of the mountains. The narrowest part was only 15 feet wide, and its water was only up to one's ankle.

In contrast, the widest section was thousands of feet wide and had a huge waterfall with many segments.

Jiang Chen squatted by the river. He lowered an iron flask into the water and filled it, then took it out and sipped at it.

This was the fifth day since he had left the Jiang Mansion. The Southwind Ridge was already some distance away.
