Zhao Hai also looked at Dao Baiying and said, "Brother Dao, I think you shouldn't go. With your status, if something happens to you, then it would be an earth-shattering event. Moreover, I'll say something that Brother Dao doesn't want to hear, but if you go, then Brother Lang and I would have to follow. If something happens to you, then Brother Lang and I would be in big trouble. Not only the two of us, even the families behind us would be in big trouble. Therefore, Brother Dao, I think it's better if you don't go."
When Dao Baiying heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but stare. Then he smiled bitterly as he let out a long sigh and said, "Hah, I thought that I could kill the enemy with my own hands, but it seems like it's impossible."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Brother Dao, you're joking. Killing the enemy with your own hands is something that a Martial Artist should do. How many people in high positions would kill their enemies with their own hands? If it's really their turn to act, then it can only mean that they're in a life and death situation. "
Dao Baiying smiled bitterly and didn't say anything else. Then he looked at the sky and said, "Alright, let's go to the manor. We can't go up the mountain, and we can't go back today. Let's rest here. Old Tang, when did this news reach the border?"
Naturally, the middle-aged man who was guarding the manor was surnamed Tang. When he heard Dao Baiying, he quickly replied, "Replying to Your Highness, it's been two days. Yesterday, it seems like a Saber Guard squad entered the mountain. However, this lowly one didn't see it, he only heard it from others."
Dao Baiying nodded and said, "So it's like that. Then we'll have to wait here. Old Tang, go and make some arrangements. Confirm if there really was a Saber Guard squad that entered the mountain. If there really was a Saber Guard squad, then keep an eye on them and see when they come out. When they come out, then immediately inform me." Old Tang nodded, then he led Dao Baiying and the others to the manor.
This manor wasn't very big. Dao Baiying only came here a few times a year. There was no need to build it so big. If he built his manor too big, people would say that he was extravagant. This wasn't a good thing for him.
After the three entered the manor, they went to the manor's living room and sat down. Old Tang served them tea and waited outside the door as if he had never left them. However, Zhao Hai knew that Old Tang must've done what Dao Baiying told him to do. Now, they just had to wait for the news.
The three of them sat down and took a sip of tea. Dao Baiying sighed and said, "I really didn't expect that we would encounter something like this on a hunt. Boring, too boring."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That's not bad. It's better than going into the mountains without knowing anything and coming out injured. It's not bad to stay here for two days."
Dao Baiying smiled bitterly, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "You really know how to talk. You really think that this place is good. I really can't do anything about you. Sigh, if I came alone, then I would've gone into the mountains to take a look."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and didn't say anything. He knew that Dao Baiying wanted to go into the mountains, but he didn't want to go with Dao Baiying. Just like what he said, if Dao Baiying had an accident, then he and the Hu Clan would be in trouble.
Moreover, Zhao Hai couldn't leave right now. He was very clear that if he left, then he would immediately be suspected. Therefore, he could only stay with Dao Baiying for now. After two days, when the matter is settled, then he can return to the Academy. Then everything would be fine.
Unfortunately, Man proposes, God disposes. The more Zhao Hai wanted to be calm, the more he couldn't. Just as they arrived at the manor and drank a cup of tea, a servant came to Old Tang's side and said something. When Old Tang heard this, his expression changed. Then he carefully entered the room and said to Dao Baiying, "Your Highness, the Saber Guards have come out of the mountains. I heard that two of them were injured. Now, the leader of the Saber Guards is waiting outside the manor. Do you want to see him?"
When Dao Baiying heard Old Tang, his eyes couldn't help but turn sharp as he said, "Injured the Saber Guards? What are they? How bold of them. Have the leader of the Saber Guards come in. I want to ask him. " Old Tang nodded, then he went out and gave the order. Before long, two burly men wearing light armor came in. The leader of the two men looked to be around 30 years old. He wore leather armor and had a weathered expression on his face. Moreover, the soul item on his head was quite special, it was actually a pair of hooks.
The person beside the burly man also looked to be around 30 years old. He had a calm expression and was also wearing light armor. However, the soul item on his head was a large saber.
When Zhao Hai saw the two, he couldn't help but stare. He wasn't surprised that they were Saber Guards. Instead, he didn't think that he would recognize one of them. Of course, the one that Zhao Hai recognized wasn't the one with the hooks. Instead, it was the other person. This person was Liu Yuangong, who had cooperated with Zhao Hai for a long time. However, at that time, Liu Yuangong wasn't a real Saber Guard. Now, it seems like he was a Saber Guard.
The two quickly entered the living room and gave a salute to Dao Baiying. When Dao Baiying saw the two, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "So it's Captain Feng. Captain Feng, what happened this time?"
Captain Feng looked at Dao Baiying and said, "Reporting to Your Highness, a group of strong people appeared on Saber Mountain. The strong people I'm talking about aren't bandits, but a group of unknown people. This group is very strong. This time, we came with a total of 20 people. However, we still suffered a small loss in the hands of the other party. The other party didn't have a lot of people, but their skills were very good. They were very proficient in mountain warfare. Therefore, in my opinion, I can roughly infer that the other party might be a hunting squad from the Tiger Soul Country."
"Hunting squad?" Upon hearing Captain Feng, Dao Baiying couldn't help but be surprised. Of course, he knew what kind of people the Tiger Soul Country's hunting squad was. They were the country's most elite squad. He didn't expect that they would be able to sneak up on them.
Dao Baiying took a deep breath and calmed himself down. Then he looked at Captain Feng and said, "Captain Feng, why did the Tiger Soul Country's hunting squad come to Saber Mountain? Moreover, we didn't notice them before. "
Captain Feng replied, "Your Highness, the Tiger Soul Country's hunting squad can't be discovered even if they enter the city. Especially those who have been carefully trained. I don't know why they came here, but it seems like they deliberately revealed their identity. However, we will do our best to keep them here. Today, I came to see Your Highness because I have two requests." Captain Feng nodded and said, "Your Highness, the Tiger Soul Country's hunting squad can't enter the city.
When Dao Baiying heard Captain Feng, he stared, but he immediately said, "What is it? Captain Feng, please speak."
Captain Feng said, "The first request is for Your Highness to immediately return to Saber City. The hunting squad is now on Saber Mountain. Your Highness is no longer safe here. I ask Your Highness to immediately return to the city."
When Dao Baiying heard Captain Feng, he frowned. However, he didn't object. The Saber Legion's position in the heart of the Imperial Family was very special. They were absolutely loyal to the Imperial Family. Moreover, there were very few people who could order them. Even Dao Baiying didn't have the authority to order Captain Feng. Naturally, it was still possible to call Captain Feng over for questioning.
Dao Baiying looked at Captain Feng and said, "Let's talk about the second request."
Captain Feng said in a deep voice, "The second thing is to ask Your Highness to help me contact someone after you return to the Saber Sage Pavilion. Ask this person to come and help. With him, I can definitely keep the hunting team on Mount Saber."
When Dao Baiying heard Captain Feng, he stared. Then he curiously asked, "Who is it? You actually want me to help you contact him? "
Captain Feng said, "This person's identity is very special. He's now a student of the Saber Sage Pavilion. Therefore, I'm asking Your Highness to help me contact him. I'm not familiar with this person, but Yuangong has dealt with him before. This person is a Plant Master, a very powerful one. As long as you're on a mountain, as long as you're in a place with plants, then you're in his territory. Therefore, I'm asking Your Highness to help me contact this person."
Dao Baiying stared for a moment, but before he could say anything, Zhao Hai laughed. Zhao Hai suddenly stood up and said to Liu Yuangong, "Uncle Liu, I didn't think that you would think of me. I'm really honored to have you here."
When Zhao Hai said this, Dao Baiying and the others were stunned. Liu Yuangong also stared blankly at the giant man behind him. After looking at him for a while, Liu Yuangong confirmed that this giant man was indeed Zhao Hai.
Liu Yuangong stared blankly at Zhao Hai. After a while, he said, "Crane Grass? You're Crane Grass? "
Seeing Liu Yuangong's expression, Zhao Hai couldn't help but laugh and said, "Right, Uncle Liu, I'm indeed Crane Grass. Hahaha. I didn't expect to see you here. You're still thinking of me."
Liu Yuangong stared blankly at Zhao Hai. After a while, he said, "You're really Crane Grass? But you've changed a lot. How did you grow so tall? How did you become so strong? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "When I went out for training, I ate a lot of things. Alright, let's not talk about this. Uncle Liu, do you want me to go with you this time and eliminate those fellows from the hunting squad?"
Liu Yuangong recovered. He immediately turned to Captain Feng and said, "Captain Feng, this is the Crane Grass that I told you about. He's the one we're looking for."
Captain Feng looked at Zhao Hai. He didn't know much about Zhao Hai's level as a Plant Master. However, looking at Zhao Hai's body, Captain Feng felt that Zhao Hai was an incomparably strong Warrior. Moreover, Captain Feng understood Liu Yuangong very well. He knew that Liu Yuangong wouldn't joke about this matter. Therefore, Captain Feng nodded and cupped his fist towards Zhao Hai and said, "This time, we're going to deal with the Tiger Soul Country's most elite hunting squad. I'll have to ask mister to help us."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "There's no need to say, I'll certainly help." Then Zhao Hai turned to Dao Baiying and said, "Brother Dao, I'll go and help. I think Captain Feng is right. You should return to Cross Blade City. This place isn't safe. If you have an accident, then the matter would be even bigger. We can deal with these small characters." Dao Baiying nodded and said, "Brother Dao, I'll go and help. I think Captain Feng is right.
Dao Baiying looked at Zhao Hai and said, "When did you guys cooperate? Do you really know each other? Are you guys working together to deceive me? "
