Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 997: The Agreement

"After all, the Eastern Land has its fair share of troubles, and Yuwen Feng is here as well. It’s possible that Yuwen Feng will be appointed as the commander, while Yuwen Jun stays in this place."

Being able to show one’s face during the conquest of the land is beneficial for anyone. If they make meritorious achievements, there’s a chance they might be granted a marquis title or prime ministership—or even become the Crown Prince.

If Yuwen Jun leaves, all this fortune will surely land on his head, something Yuwen Feng might not be willing to accept.

"That may be true, but the unexpected events today have put Yuwen Feng at a major disadvantage. It’s unlikely he’ll be able to get out of bed within the next ten days or half a month, let alone lead an army as commander."

Li Wenli answered earnestly.

Before making his escape, he had hurled a Wind Blade Net in the direction of Yuwen Jun and Yuwen Feng.

However, he left in such a hurry that he didn’t even have a chance to assess the effectiveness of the Wind Net. But judging by the usual performance of the Wind Net, the two must have drawn blood.

"..." Bai Junjun.

"..." Yuwen Qi.

Regarding the underhanded action Li Wenli had secretly executed, they remained utterly unaware.

Still, having both Yuwen Jun and Yuwen Feng injured was certainly advantageous for them.

At the very least, the pursuit during their escape wouldn’t be too intense.

After sitting for a while longer, the two finally proposed leaving.

Yuwen Qi desperately tried to persuade them to stay, but Bai Junjun and Li Wenli declined, citing the need to rescue others.

The two parties only agreed to reconvene at this location in seven days and break through the checkpoint together.

Afterward, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli scaled the walls and left.

Watching their retreating figures, the steward couldn’t help but worry: "Will they be okay going out like this?"

"Don’t worry." Yuwen Qi smiled reassuringly. "Brother Wenli and Junjun are the most capable people in this world. There’s nothing they can’t accomplish."

The memories of the days spent in the Tube-shaped Building and even in Dai County were vivid in Yuwen Qi’s mind, cementing their image as omnipotent figures in his heart.

Whenever he faced a challenge, Yuwen Qi would always use these two as his source of inspiration.

Meanwhile, the pair who had taken a high path silently returned to their courtyard.

Compared to the chaos in Biluo’s central region, this area was still tranquil.

The husband and wife returned home, immediately went to sleep, and started living a life of "taking one day at a time"—like monks striking the bell each day.

During the seven-day lockdown, guards went door-to-door for two straight days to inspect every household for suspicious strangers.

Later on, inspections occurred every other day. By the seventh day, the guards didn’t come for inspections but merely banged a gong at the entrance of the alley to announce: "The lockdown is lifted. Everyone can resume their business!"

The townsfolk, upon hearing the news of the lockdown lifting, leapt out with joy.

Many families had run out of food. The last few days had been spent surviving on water alone.

If the lockdown hadn’t been lifted, they might have ended up eating the yellow dirt in their own homes.

Li Wenli and Bai Junjun also took the opportunity to go outside.

Originally, they planned to use the crowd as cover to sneak into the impoverished district across the way. But as soon as they stepped out of the alley, they ran into Mei Hua.

Upon seeing the couple—who were fully bundled from head to toe—Mei Hua couldn’t help but arch her brows fiercely in disapproval.

"Fei Hua, hasn’t it been a few days? Why are you still wearing that scarf?"

"Uh..." Bai Junjun didn’t expect Mei Hua’s never-ending pestering. The moment the lockdown ended, she didn’t bother roaming around but instead showed up to find her. Internally, Bai Junjun felt a stampede of ten thousand galloping horses surging through her mind.

She had no choice but to patiently respond: "Having stayed cooped up for days, well... tensions flared again, that’s all."

"He dares to lay a hand on you?" Mei Hua glared furiously at Li Wenli, who stood nearby.

Li Wenli innocently tugged at the corner of his mouth. "Fights on the headboard, reconciliation at the footboard—that’s married life. What does that have to do with you?"

"!" Mei Hua nearly fainted in anger. What kind of man is this? He’s a complete degenerate!
