Moving out of the rental apartment, Li Wuching simply packed a few things, some clothes and necessities, and discarded the pots, pans, and other bulky items.
Currently, Li Wuching didn't have much RMB, but it was enough to support him for a while. As for the future, he had already thought of a way to make money.
With a backpack on his back, he went to an internet cafe and searched for a rental online. Among the many listings, he found a house that seemed decent, though the rent was not low, nearly a thousand yuan per month.
In the capital, a single room and half a living room for a thousand yuan a month would only be found in areas closer to the outer ring.
After making a call to arrange a meeting, Li Wuching immediately headed over. It was a neighborhood with a decent environment. While it didn't have much in terms of greenery, the security was better than in the urban villages, and the people coming and going were less complicated.
Outside the neighborhood, Li Wuching made a call. A man in his thirties looked over and walked up, asking with a questioning tone, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Li Wuching?"
Li Wuching nodded, "Yes, are you Mr. Xu Ge?"
"I am, Mr. Li, hello."
Xu Ge smiled and extended his right hand.
Li Wuching shook his hand and said, "Hello, can we go see the house now?"
"Sure, please follow me."
Xu Ge led the way, and Li Wuching followed. They entered the neighborhood and came to a high-rise building. On the tenth floor, Xu Ge opened a door and said, "This is my house, a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment. Besides you, there's already one tenant. Is that okay?"
"No problem."
Li Wuching said indifferently.
The house was quite good, spacious with all the necessary appliances. Li Wuching, who wasn't very picky, quickly decided and paid the deposit and six months' rent.
After getting the room key, Li Wuching went to a shopping market to buy some necessary items. This time, he wasn't as frugal with his spending.
Carrying several bags, he opened the door and saw a woman walking around the living room. When their eyes met, they both paused for a moment.
After a moment, Li Wuching's expression returned to normal, and he smiled friendly, "Hello, I'm Li Wuching, the new tenant."
The woman was tall and beautiful, a top-tier beauty by modern standards. She nodded slightly and said, "Hello, I'm Su Xiaoxiao."
Su Xiaoxiao's attitude, while not cold, was not particularly warm. After greeting Li Wuching, she returned to her room.
In the past, seeing such a beautiful woman, even if he had no intentions, Li Wuching would have been willing to approach her. But today, he had no such thoughts.
Back in his room, he locked the door, threw the purchased items into a corner, and activated the spatial mark. His figure gradually disappeared in the room.
...
In the Overlord Space, in the villa of the main city, Li Wuching's figure suddenly appeared. The room was exactly the same as when he left.
"Little God, come out quickly."
As soon as he returned to the Overlord Space, Li Wuching called out.
A light ball the size of a head appeared, and the mechanical voice spoke again.
"Overlord, what do you need?"
Li Wuching said, "We should prepare to guide the second batch of trainees."
The Overlord Core said, "Overlord, are you still planning to take on the guiding mission?"
Li Wuching shook his head, "No, let numbers two to eleven do it."
After a pause, the Overlord Core said, "Overlord, didn't we decide to let them experience another world before taking on the guiding mission?"
Regarding the development of the Overlord Space and the guiding of trainees, Li Wuching had already made a plan with the Overlord Core.
In fact, the Overlord Core had once advocated being more strict and cold-hearted with trainees who had experienced plot worlds. For example, after Liu Hongjun, Zhao Dingkun, and others were guided by Li Wuching and experienced one world, they could be forced to take on the guiding mission.
However, Li Wuching didn't want the Overlord Space to be so cold and bloody, so he firmly disagreed and decided to let Liu Hongjun, Fan Qi, and others experience another world, giving them more time to breathe.
Li Wuching said, "The situation has changed. Someone has offended me, and I want to bring him in and teach him a lesson."
Li Wuching was a very vengeful person. While he could let past events go, what happened yesterday made him extremely angry with Wen Mengfei, and he was thinking of ways to get back at him.
Currently, Li Wuching's focus was more on the Overlord Space, and he didn't want to cause too much trouble in the real world. So, he came up with a plan to bring Wen Mengfei into the Overlord Space.
The Overlord Space was his territory. If Wen Mengfei came in, he could do whatever he wanted with him.
"Alright then."
The Overlord Core agreed.
Anything that could accelerate the development of the space was something the Overlord Core naturally desired. So, it selected another forty-five people to enter the space.
Considering that Liu Hongjun, Zhao Dingkun, and Fan Qi's skills were still insufficient, ten people might not be enough, so Li Wuching halved the number.
Moreover, Li Wuching specifically designated that Wen Mengfei would fall into Fang Junjie's hands. With a timid leader like Fang Junjie, a useless person like Wen Mengfei would be lucky to survive.
"I hope you can survive."
Li Wuching thought to himself, looking forward to the day he could personally crush Wen Mengfei.
...
The Daba Mountains, stretching west to the Qinling Mountains and east to the Wu Gorge, are known for their grandeur and danger. The roads in the mountains are steep and narrow, with deep ravines and gorges everywhere. The most perilous spots are truly impassable even for birds and apes.
Even the broad-minded Li Taibai, passing through this area, couldn't help but sigh, "The road to Shu is difficult, harder than ascending to the blue sky."
It was September, the height of autumn. The mountains were ablaze with red maples and golden leaves, a scene of vibrant colors. In the midst of the rugged mountains, a narrow path wound its way south, clinging to a sheer cliff and overlooking a deep valley. A gust of mountain wind howled past, lifting the withered vines on the cliff and revealing three faded dark red characters: "Immortal Crossing."
On the narrow path below the cliff, a figure slowly appeared, looking up at the steep mountain peak and down at the winding path, and sighed, "This must be the world of the Iron-Blooded Hero."
Through the spatial mark, he checked the background information, and it was indeed so.
In the late Southern Song Dynasty, as the Mongols invaded from the north, the young Liang Wenjing and his father Liang Tiande fled to Sichuan to avoid conscription. On their journey, they encountered the imperial supervisor, Prince of Huai'an, who was assassinated. The strategist Bai Pu discovered that Liang Wenjing resembled Prince Huai'an and used him as a decoy to defend the city of Hezhou, blocking the Mongol advance.
