188: Chapter 50: A Narrow Road Encounter with the World Association 188: Chapter 50: A Narrow Road Encounter with the World Association Seeing that person’s na, Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
He recognized this person, who had slain Mandingo in Luoyang Town in public, all to stand up for soone else.
This guy had quite a sense of chivalry, so he probably wouldn’t kill without reason.
“Brother, you scared to death,” he said.
“It’s your own fault for running around.
How co you didn’t stop when I called you?”
Xiao Jie said helplessly, “With you rushing towards with such a big red na, wouldn’t I be stupid not to run?
Alright, I won’t run now.
Just tell what’s up—but let summon my pet to get so air first, don’t mind .”
With that, he whistled and summoned Big Red.
Xia Yi the Unrivaled said, “Do as you please, brother, I don’t mind at all.”
Xiao Jie thought to himself that since you were level 30, Big Red would be useless if you really wanted to kill , but it was so psychological comfort after all.
“By the way, didn’t you only kill players with a yellow na?
How co you still haven’t cleared your red na?”
Killing a player with a yellow na should only result in being a red na for 12 hours.
Xia Yi the Unrivaled said helplessly, “Don’t get started.
After I killed that guy, I got chased and had to chop two more, then I ran here to Xiaofeng City to hide.
The Dragon Soaring Knights ca after , forcing to kill again.
If this keeps up, I’ll be dead sooner or later.
Hey, how did you know I killed soone?”
“Haha, Brother Xia Yi stood up for what’s right in Luoyang Town, killing in plain sight without regard for the heroes around.
That kind of deanor is rare in one’s life, so of course I rember it clearly.”
“Hahahaha, you’ve got good taste, brother.
Just for what you said, I, Xia Yi the Unrivaled, will make friends with you today—speaking of which, do you have any blood bottles to spare a few?”
“Sure,” Xiao Jie said and imdiately threw a few small golden sore dicine bottles on the ground.
Xia Yi the Unrivaled picked up the dicine and was instantly speechless, “Damn, just these few?
And all small ones?”
Xiao Jie said with resignation, “Big brother, I’m only level 13, where would I have the money for big elixirs?
This is what I use.
How about I give you two more?” Saying that, he threw two more out.
Of course, that wasn’t the whole truth.
He still had a few large elixirs in his bag, specially prepared when monsters attacked the village.
But as they say, no bunnies, no falconry; without any benefits, why would he give away the elixirs for free?
Xia Yi the Unrivaled didn’t mind and picked up the dicine.
“Let’s do this, you go buy so more for , and I’ll give you the money.
Get so talismans too; I might need to hunker down for a long battle soon.”
He threw a lump of silver on the ground as he spoke.
Xiao Jie picked it up and was imdiately shocked.
[System Notification: You have picked up 100 taels of silver.]
Holy crap, that’s generous!
“Get 50 big elixirs, five Invisibility Talismans, five Godspeed Talismans, five Iron Wall Talismans…
Keep the rest as a delivery fee, how about that, no problems right?”
Xiao Jie promptly noted it down.
“No problem, absolutely no problem.
Just wait, I’ll go buy the elixirs for you right now.”
“Hurry back.
I’ll go offline to hide for a while.
Let’s et here after half an hour—but let say sothing unpleasant upfront, buddy.
Don’t you try to con .
Even if I die, I can still find soone to take revenge for .”
“Don’t worry, I wouldn’t dare,” said Xiao Jie as he mounted up and galloped away.
He encountered no dangers on the way, and in little over ten minutes, he could already see the walls of Xiaofeng City.
He raced into the city on his horse, heading straight to the auction house.
As he passed by the comrcial district, Xiao Jie dismounted as a habit, to avoid hitting anyone.
After he passed, a player who had been setting up a stall suddenly packed up and hurried into an inn nearby.
Heading straight to the second floor.
“Leader, leader, I’ve spotted that kid!”
Around a table on the second floor, Cloud Guest was discussing with the mbers of the World Association how to find Hidden Moon Following Wind.
At this news, he was instantly elated.
“Really?!
Where?”
“He’s alone, heading for the auction house.”
“Haha, now you’re definitely going to die,” Cloud Guest exclaid in delight, but Feng Buping said solemnly, “No, we can’t act inside the city.
Send soone to keep an eye on him, make sure he doesn’t notice.
The rest of us will set an ambush outside the city.”
Cloud Guest was sowhat hesitant, “But who knows when he will leave the city?”
“Whenever he leaves the city is when we’ll strike.
How can one aim for great achievents without a little patience?”
Cloud Guest scoffed, “Fine.
Shadow—you watch him.
Everyone else, follow out of the city.”
At this mont, Xiao Jie was unaware that he had been targeted, currently engaged in a shopping spree at the auction house.
Having money really is great, collecting a variety of elixirs and talismans into his bag.
Xiao Jie also purchased three Ti Hu Pills for himself.
He was already at 17 comprehension, and eating one Ti Hu Pill would bring him exactly to 20 comprehension, allowing him to access the [Enlightennt] state.
Once his Saber Skill reached LV10, he would try to Instantly Realize a Profound Skill.
Besides that, he bought many items that White Ape might find interesting.
He had been worried about not having enough money, but now that was no longer an issue.
In a short while, he had bought everything he needed, and even picked up a few ingredients to make several bottles of Monkey Wine, but he wasn’t in a rush to sell them.
Checking his bag, he had spent over eighty taels of the 100 taels of silver, with more than sixty taels used to buy items for Xia Yi the Unrivaled.
Earning over thirty taels for this errand wasn’t too bad.
Actually, Xiao Jie could have chosen not to help with the purchase and kept all the money for himself, but when it ca to dealing with people, he couldn’t bring himself to be that selfish.
Thinking of Xia Yi the Unrivaled, who was willing to risk a red na to slay villains for unrelated people, such heroic actions sowhat touched him.
Xiao Jie himself wouldn’t do the sa, but buying so dicine to help was still doable.
He left the house without delay and rode straight toward the city outskirts, while at a corner of the auction house, a private ssage was also sent out.
Xiao Jie exited the North Gate and followed the main road heading toward East Sun Mountain.
He was quite at ease, as there were hardly any monsters around Xiaofeng City these days, and he hadn’t encountered any danger, which had led to Xiao Jie letting his guard down unusually.
However, it just proved that danger could happen at any ti.
As he was passing a junction flanked by two woods, a sudden volley of arrows and throwing knives shot out from the trees on both sides, and even a Thunder Talisman ca along with them, showing a well-preditated ambush.
Caught off-guard, Xiao Jie’s horse was instantly turned into a pincushion by the incoming projectiles and collapsed with a neigh, dead.
“My horse!” Xiao Jie exclaid in both shock and anger.
That was one million!
He controlled his character to roll over and stand up.
Just as he got up, a group suddenly burst out from both sides.
A dozen people surrounded him from all directions, with swords drawn and crossbows tight, and the leader could be none other than Cloud Guest.
“World Association!” Xiao Jie was greatly alard.
These people had actually chased him all the way here.
He had been too complacent lately due to the lack of danger, which had led to a bit of carelessness.
It was over now; he was really in danger.
“Hahaha, Hidden Moon Following Wind, we et again.
You’ve made suffer a lot, you bastard,” Cloud Guest said viciously.
“I think you know why I’m here, don’t you?
Today, you must clear things up.
What’s the deal with that leveling point?
As long as you explain things clearly to , I’ll let you leave alive, otherwise—hmph, you can go join Mr.
Ran.”
Mr.
Ran…
so he was indeed killed?
Let leave, who are you kidding…
Xiao Jie knew in his heart that it was clear from the start that they weren’t planning to let things slide, and once he revealed the truth, death would be certain.
But even if he stayed silent, they would definitely attack.
The only plan for now was to escape — he couldn’t win in a fight, alone and without his sole teammate; a clash would an instant death.
There was only one word for it — flee.
Luckily, he had an advanced light skill the others didn’t know about, his greatest reliance for escape.
However, he only had one chance, and he had to bet it all.
At this mont, Xiao Jie was extrely tense.
This might be the biggest crisis he’d ever faced in the ga.
If he handled it even slightly wrong, he would et with both death and the deletion of his account.
Fortunately, the enemies seed to think they had him completely in their grip, which gave him a slight chance to survive.
“Alright, alright, I’ll tell you, is it such a big deal to be so agitated?
That secret leveling point is right at—!”
Flying Cloud Chasing Moon—Wind Stepping!
Xiao Jie took a flying leap straight up into the air, as if stepping on the wind, instantly rising ten or twelve ters, the height of three or four floors.
This move was completely unexpected by the enemies, who never thought a re level 13 character could have such strong light skill.
Cloud Guest was shocked.
“Shoot arrows!”
A barrage of arrows imdiately flew toward Xiao Jie.
In midair, Xiao Jie simply pressed the spacebar.
Flying Cloud Crossing!
He perford a two-stage diagonal jump to lunge forward once again, which instantly allowed him to dodge most of the arrows.
“Shoot again!
Shoot!”
Moon Chasing!
Xiao Jie took a flying pounce forward in the air, soaring out over twenty ters like a large bird.
Without activating Yan Hang, he plutted directly from the air to the ground.
The mont he landed, without any hesitation, he activated both Grass Flying and Galloping, along with a Godspeed Talisman, and bolted away, disappearing from everyone’s view in an instant.
Cloud Guest was dumbfounded.
How could this guy run so fast?
“Chase him!” he shouted, and everyone summoned their mounts to give chase.
However, with Xiao Jie’s three buffs stacked, he was faster than the warhorses and quickly pulled away.
But he didn’t dare to relax.
The Godspeed Talisman only lasted 20 seconds, and once that ti passed, the effect would be gone.
Grass Flying consud Inner Strength and couldn’t support him for too long, necessitating frequent stops to consu dicine for sustained energy.
On the other hand, the Galloping skill could be used continuously as long as he had energy, making it the most enduring one.
At this mont, he was extrely grateful that he had caught Luobo before.
But now wasn’t the ti to be happy; he hadn’t escaped to safety yet.
Most of the World Association people had inferior horses, so they shouldn’t be able to catch up in the short term, but if they had warhorses, it was possible they could still catch him.
Not even ten seconds after the Godspeed Talisman effect expired, the sound of horse hooves ca from behind.
It was Cloud Guest and Feng Buping.
Both of them had warhorse mounts.
Xiao Jie inwardly cursed, quickly consuming a Shun Qi Powder and breaking into a run again, simultaneously using another Godspeed Talisman!
Luckily, he had bought a bunch of items in the bag, initially intended for Xia Yi the Unrivaled.
Now they ca in handy.
As Xiao Jie was considering how to shake off the pursuers, a cry of an eagle ca from the sky.
Looking up, he saw an eagle flying overhead.
It was over; it must be the Beast Tar’s pet.
Just at that mont, a private ssage suddenly appeared in his ssage box.
Xia Yi the Unrivaled: How’s it going, did you get them?
Hidden Moon Following Wind: I got them, but I’m being chased right now!
Xia Yi the Unrivaled: By whom?
Hidden Moon Following Wind: The World Association.
There are about a dozen of them.
Xia Yi the Unrivaled: Co et up with ; I’ll help you settle this.
Xiao Jie thought, is that possible?
There are over ten of them, including a magician.
A level 30 expert is indeed formidable, but this ga doesn’t have the concept of level suppression.
If a fight really broke out, having more people was the key.
Not to ntion anything else, just shooting arrows together would cause explosive damage.
A person could fall to a single talisman, and you—still a red na—might actually get taken out by them as well.
But at this point, he had no choice but to trust the other party.
So he imdiately changed direction, bolting toward the agreed-upon location.
