Chapter 152: Chapter 151: Hold Steady

Not far from the Laborer Camp, by the Bailang River.

Chen Mu didn't know when the Startling Swan Gang would attack. He had not dared to stray far these past few days when he went out to catch fish and nurture Netherworld Thread.

Humming an unknown tune, he carried a Silver Thread Fish in his hand while the Sleeve Sword Technique flickered in and out of visibility.

Scaling, gutting, cleaning, pickling—the Silver Thread Fish were swiftly processed one by one.

Chen Mu skipped a stone across the water idly during his spare time.

The small pebble skimmed across the water's surface and raced towards the opposite bank over ten meters away. With a plop, it chopped off a section of reed.

"I've hit the other side! Ha!"

Then he grabbed a handful of pebbles and scattered them with a throw.

"A handful of stones in my hand, ten li of reeds all bow their heads!"
