"Hehe, trying to pass through our Butcher Group’s territory without notifying us, aren’t you giving too little face?"
As the encirclent took shape, a strange laughter suddenly echoed in the air, and then a blood-red figure stood up from the largest two-headed lizard.
This blood-robed man had a rugged appearance, standing about two ters tall. His hands were peculiar: one was covered with nacing green scales, while the other hand was adorned with leopard patterns, radiating wild power. Behind him, a lizard tail kept slapping against the back of the two-headed lizard.
"Deng Quan?"
Seeing the blood-red figure appear, Ji Shan and his companions turned pale instantly, a tremor even audible in their voices.
They didn’t expect to be discovered by this guy after all.
Ji Shan’s face twitched, then he stepped out of the caravan, took out a Qiankun Ring, and said respectfully, "Lord Deng Quan, we are the Stone City Lord’s caravan. Here is a small gift, hoping you will accept it and let us pass."
Deng Quan reached out, and a suction force unceremoniously pulled the Qiankun Ring into his hand. He glanced at it and grinned, "Not bad, seems like you do have so sincerity."
Upon hearing this, Ji Shan’s face lit up slightly with joy, and he cautiously said, "Then may I ask, Lord, if you could let our caravan pass?"
"Of course..." Deng Quan let out a strange laugh, his scarlet snake-like tongue licking the corners of his mouth. His finger suddenly pointed toward Lu Youlan’s carriage, smirking sinisterly, "But before you go, leave this little beauty behind!"
The faces of everyone in the caravan drastically changed, many gripping their weapons quietly. Ji Shan took a deep breath and said respectfully, "What do you an by this, Lord?"
"Heh heh, I don’t have many hobbies other than won. I’ve long heard that the Stone City Lord’s eldest daughter is a little beauty. You think I’d let you go?" Ignoring Ji Shan, Deng Quan’s gaze locked directly onto the wagon, laughing strangely.
"Boom!"
As Deng Quan’s words fell, the lid of the carriage exploded open, and a graceful figure flashed out, finally standing on top of the carriage, her eyes chillingly fixated on Deng Quan atop the two-headed lizard.
Upon seeing Lu Youlan, Deng Quan’s eyes imdiately burst with an intense red light, and he laughed up to the sky, "As expected, the reward this ti is quite bountiful."
Hearing such lewd words, Lu Youlan’s cheeks suddenly turned cold, a hint of killing intent flashed in her beautiful eyes. Gripping her delicate hand, a long sword flashed into appearance, and her figure suddenly burst toward Deng Quan.
"Heh heh, little girl, coming to yourself, don’t bla then."
Seeing Lu Youlan charging in, Deng Quan rely chuckled, opened his mouth, and a strand of True Yuan shot out, striking like lightning onto her sword, causing it to shatter instantly. Lu Youlan’s figure was forcibly pushed back, clearly unable to withstand such fierce force.
"Lord Deng Quan, we’re people of the Stone City Lord. If you lay a hand on us, the Stone City Lord and many powerful individuals will not let you go!" Seeing Lu Youlan suffer a setback, Ji Shan imdiately shouted in anger.
"Stone City? There are so old guys there, but what can they do to ? If I can’t beat them, can’t I run? Besides, if I leave all of you here, who will know it was my doing?" Deng Quan laughed eerily, his voice echoing out, and with its spread, the eyes of those Butcher Group mbers in the canyon flashed with cold light. Like engines starting up, they charged toward the caravan.
Facing the fierce onslaught of the Butcher Group, almost everyone looked despairing, gripping their weapons, ready to fight to the death.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
However, just as the Butcher Group mbers closed within a short distance of the caravan, their bodies suddenly froze, inexplicably sent flying backward, along with their mounts, crashing heavily to the ground, in a most wretched state.
Witnessing this sudden change, everyone present, whether Ji Shan and his comrades, Lu Youlan, or Deng Quan, was stunned.
"What is this?"
The guards, who were poised to fight, were about to act when the enemies inexplicably flew away themselves. This scene was comically absurd, yet everyone was dumbfounded, not knowing what had just happened.
"What are you idiots doing! Get moving!"
After a mont’s silence, Deng Quan finally ca back to his senses. His face darkened, and he yelled at the Butcher Group mbers, who also had no idea what happened. After a brief hesitation, they clambered up, eyes once again burning with ferocity, twisting their bodies as they charged toward the caravan like arrows.
Seeing these ruffians attacking again, Ji Shan and the others hurriedly channeled their True Yuan. However, before they could attack, the mysterious banging sounds echoed once more in the air. The Butcher Group mbers, who ca charging aggressively, as if they hit an invisible barrier, were once again sent flying, landing on all fours.
"How can this be? These people seem to have hit a wall. Is it a prohibition? Could soone be helping us?"
The originally tense Lu Qi was stunned at this scene, full of disbelief.
"Who knows, maybe soone who likes to ddle passed by, felt sorry for us, and decided to lend a hand," Ye Xuan said with a light smile, while at the sa ti, his right hand, which was placed behind his back, was withdrawn.
"That must be it! Ye Xuan, you’re really our lucky star. If we didn’t bring you along, we might not have been so lucky!" Lu Qi exclaid excitedly.
"Heh, maybe."
Ye Xuan didn’t know how Lu Qi reached that conclusion, but she really stumbled upon the truth. Without him, they wouldn’t have had such luck.
This wasn’t any prohibition, but rely a barrier ford by soul power. Although Ye Xuan was injured, using his soul power wasn’t much of a problem.
Seeing this scene, Ji Shan and the others were filled with great joy, realizing soone must be secretly aiding them.
"Miss!" Ji Shan exclaid excitedly, glancing at Lu Youlan, and whispered.
Lu Youlan gently waved her jade hand, her beautiful eyes slowly sweeping the surroundings, but she found no trace. Her willow brows furrowed slightly; could their luck really be so good to encounter such powerful help at this critical mont?
