Devour: Can you also draw entries from clone projection worlds?
Chapter 89 Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling
Li Dawei looked at him with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but still spoke up: "I want to ask you to protect Xu Xin secretly. Given Xu Xin's status, Atkin wouldn't dare to take action openly, but it's not so easy to say anything behind the scenes. His reputation... well, it's a bit hard to explain."
Wei Wen didn't answer immediately. Although he had befriended people like Li Dawei almost entirely for this moment, but...
His strength is only at the first level of the planetary realm. Atkin's side has three people, who are either at the third level of the planetary realm or the second level of the planetary realm, and each of them is "stronger" than him.
"No, judging by the realm alone, it seems to make sense, but... I'm cheating!" Thinking of this, Wei Wen thought about his powerful domain again and couldn't help but cut off the thought of hesitation.
"Okay," he said. "I'll go."
That night, Wei Wen moved to a building across from Xu Xin's apartment complex and rented a small room with a window facing Xu Xin's villa.
He discovered that Atkins' men had already set up surveillance around the area, with four cars of different colors parked around the neighborhood, and the people in the cars taking turns watching around the clock.
He couldn't help but guess that they were waiting for Xu Xin and Luo Hua to lower their guard, waiting for an opportunity to strike. After all, the villa that Luo Feng had specially chosen for his family was extremely well-defended, and the Flowing Silver Guards were not to be underestimated.
"However, it seems that in the short term, at least for the next few days, Atkins and his men may not find an opportunity to make a move..."
"Yeah, a clone projection." Wei Wen slapped his thigh. "A few days here could be years or even decades in the projected world. Instead of wasting time here, we might as well go to another world and make some money."
"The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty." Wei Wen's gaze lingered on this name.
He had watched this world, or rather, the TV series, many times.
The four extraordinary books inside—the War God's Manual, the Longevity Manual, the Compassionate Sword Manual, and the Heavenly Demon Strategy—are all martial arts manuals that transcend the mortal realm. When cultivated to their ultimate level, they can shatter the void.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, those two lads, grew from street thugs into top masters, encountering countless adventures and opportunities along the way.
This world has what he wants, but he can't rush it. The world of intermediate martial arts is not the same as that of low-level martial arts. The masters there can shatter the void and are many times stronger than the Sweeper Monk and Zhang Sanfeng in the martial arts world.
His current strength is enough to make him invincible in the low-level martial arts world, but in the mid-level martial arts world, there are many people stronger than him.
Whether it's the three grandmasters, the eight masters of the Demonic Sect, the head of Cihang Jingzhai, or the abbot of Jingnian Zen Temple, each of them is someone who can easily defeat him.
He needs to take it slow, establish a firm foothold first, and then plan for further development.

The familiar feeling of weightlessness washed over him, and Wei Wen closed his eyes, waiting for the moment he would land.
Then, the light came.
He opened his eyes and found himself standing on the bank of a wide river. The river was turbulent and the current was rapid. The water was muddy and yellowish, and it must have been a tributary of the Yangtze River.
On both sides of the river are vast fields and villages, and in the distance stands a city with tall walls and flags flying on its towers.
He looked down at his hands; they were fair, slender, and had distinct knuckles—they weren't his hands.
I touched my face; it was young, smooth, and wrinkle-free.
Very well, he has changed bodies again, to another body that is just as young.
He found a willow tree to sit down and began to process the memories of this body.
The owner of this body was also named Wei Wen. He was an itinerant doctor who lost his parents at a young age and traveled all over the country, making a living by treating people.
His medical skills weren't particularly advanced, but he could still treat common minor ailments.
I have some loose silver on me, enough to last me a while.
Age? Twenty? Probably.
Wei Wen nodded in satisfaction. This identity was transparent enough, with no sect background or Jianghu connections. Moreover, the identity of a traveling doctor was too convenient; no one would suspect him no matter where he went.
Soon, he figured out the current time from his memory: Emperor Yang of Sui was still on the throne, the world had begun to fall into chaos, Li Yuan had not yet raised an army, and Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling should still be two small-time hoodlums in Yangzhou, because he had not heard of any major events recently.
Everything begins at the very beginning of the original story.
Wei Wen stood up, dusted himself off, and walked along the official road by the river toward Yangzhou.
Yangzhou was the most prosperous city on the banks of the Grand Canal, a hub for merchants and lined with restaurants.
When Wei Wen entered the city, it was morning, and the streets were bustling with people.
He didn't rush to find Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. He first found an inn to stay in, put his things away (the things given to him by several kind people on the way into the city), and then went out to wander around the city.
The layout of Yangzhou was similar to what he remembered. The city center was the Bell and Drum Tower, the east was the salt merchant area, the west was the residential area for ordinary people, the south was the wharf and the Grand Canal, and the north was the government office.
"It seems that Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling live in a dilapidated alley in the west of the city. Those two boys have made a living by stealing chickens and dogs since they were young. Apart from living in a dilapidated house in the west of the city, they probably have nowhere else to go."
He compared his memories with those of others and asked around, and soon he was standing at the entrance of the alley.
Looking at that dilapidated house, the door was crooked, the window paper had several holes, and many roof tiles were missing.
Sure enough, those two boys weren't home at this time; they were probably out looking for food in broad daylight.
Wei Wen didn't go in, but turned around and went back to the inn. Anyway, he had already figured out the place on this trip and could come anytime.
The next morning, Wei Wen "bumped into" Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in a small alley in the west of the city.
Two boys were squatting in the corner, sharing a stolen steamed bun.
Kou Zhong was tall with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and had a heroic air about him. He wore a tattered short jacket, his trousers were covered in mud, and his straw sandals had several holes worn through.
He eats with great gusto, taking a big bite and puffing out his cheeks.
Xu Ziling was handsome with delicate features and a gentle temperament. Although he was dressed in shabby clothes, he had an inexplicable cleanliness about him.
He ate very politely, taking small bites and chewing slowly.
Wei Wen walked over, squatted down, and looked at them.
"You two young men, are you hungry?"
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling both raised their heads at the same time, looking at Wei Wen warily.
Kou Zhong hid the steamed bun behind his back and asked, "Who are you?"
Wei Wen smiled and said, "My name is Wei Wen, and I'm a traveling doctor. You two look pale and thin; haven't you been eating well for a long time?"
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling exchanged a glance but remained silent. Wei Wen took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Kou Zhong, saying, "Here, take this and have something good to eat."
Kou Zhong paused for a moment, then didn't answer.
Wei Wen stuffed the silver into his hand and then stood up.
Kou Zhong looked at the silver in his hand, then looked up at Wei Wen and asked, "Why are you helping us?"
"Because you two will have a bright future, I'm just trying to curry favor with you first," Wei Wen said, turning and leaving without waiting for their reply.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling squatted in the corner, watching Wei Wen's figure disappear into the alley, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Young Master Zhong, who is this person?" Xu Ziling asked.
"I don't know." Kou Zhong weighed the silver in his hand. "But who cares who he is? Money talks. Let's go get some steamed buns!"
The two boys dashed out of the alley in a flash.
Wei Wen stood at the corner of the alley, watching the two boys run off happily into the distance, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
No rush. Let them remember your face first, and then we can gradually get to know each other.
The secret to immortality is something you can't escape.
