"Look carefully. These bandits are somewhat different from the previous bandits in terms of temperament, appearance, skin, and so on. Different places raise different people. For example, in the land of Nanjiang, the people there are short and delicate. For example, the people in the north are tall and burly, with broad shoulders and thick waists."
Xiao Yang observed as he spoke.
After waiting for a while, they saw two commoners passing by.
"Cousin, look. Someone is going to pass by their ambush point. It's two poor commoners."
Lan Jiaoye was anxious as she spoke.
The bandits would definitely not let them go easily.
Sure enough, when the two commoners passed by their ambush point, two bandits immediately jumped out. They held large swords in their hands and threatened them, "Stop, you've been robbed."
"Ah, it's, it's bandits?"
The two commoners were so scared that their faces turned pale. They sat on the ground in panic.
"Sir, please, let us go. Our money is used to save lives. It's used to buy medicine …"
The two commoners begged and kowtowed to the bandits for mercy.
"Men, take them away and send them back to the village for the lord's use."
The scabby-headed man spoke coldly and mercilessly.
He carried the large sword on his shoulder and walked a few steps forward. He found the two annoying and noisy people annoying. He impatiently knocked them out.
Soon, several bandits came out and took the two prey away.
Then, the scabby-headed man returned to his original position to hunt.
"Cousin, how is it? Do you want to help them?"
Lan Jiaoye asked worriedly. Those were two lives. She couldn't bear to see it happen.
Li Qinghe also hated bandits. The bandits they met before almost slaughtered their village. They also almost killed him and his son. He was still angry.
"Wait, these bandits aren't ordinary bandits."
Xiao Yang replied.
The scabby-headed man was at least a Martial Ancestor. A Martial Ancestor actually led a group to rob. It was too unbelievable. How strong would the boss behind him be?
"Cousin, look, Chen Zhifu and Cao Zhi are here. They must pass by here. They're finished. Should we inform them?"
Lan Jiaoye became even more anxious and worried.
Although Lan Jiaoye was very unhappy with the indifference of those people, she still couldn't bear to see them walk into the bandits' ambush.
Li Qinghe's eyes flickered as he pondered.
He felt that it was not a bad idea to let them scout the situation. It would not be too late for them to make a move after they were clear about the true strength of the bandits. It would be best to wait until they were captured and heavily injured. That way, it would be even more apparent that they had saved their lives.
He exchanged glances with Xiao Yang and Xiao Yang. The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
"Why don't you two say something?"
Lan Jiaoye looked at them angrily.
The closer Chen Zhifu, Cao Zhi, and the others got to the ambush, the more worried she became. After all, she was a girl and was soft-hearted. Even if others were heartless, she was not willing to watch them die.
"Don't worry, I can guarantee that they won't die. I also guarantee that I will save the two civilians. What are you worried about?"
Xiao Yang comforted Lan Jiaoye.
Li Qinghe also smiled and said, "That's right. Have you forgotten how they treated us before? They didn't want to get into trouble and rejected us. Based on this, we can also refuse to save them. "
"No, we can't let them die. After all, they are all people of Wuyang City. Moreover, those bandits are too hateful. We suffered at their hands last time. This time, we won't let them go."
Lan Jiaoye said angrily. Her hatred for the bandits had reached an incomparable level.
Li Qinghe was the same. He and his villagers were the ones who suffered the most from the bandits.
"I didn't say that they can't be saved. Xiao Yang said that he will guarantee that they won't die. What are you worried about? Who was the one who was angry at them just now? "
Li Qinghe curled his lips and teased.
"Alright, quiet down. Find a suitable opportunity to make a move."
Xiao Yang signaled them to be quiet.
Below, on the road.
Cao Zhi and Chen Zhifu walked at the front with several companions behind them.
Chen Zhifu said indifferently, "Rumors say that bandits often appear in the area ahead. We need to be very careful."
Cao Zhi didn't mind. Calling himself the captain, he announced, "What are you afraid of? We're all disciples of the Poison Sect and all of us have decent skills. It's good that bandits are here. We can take care of them and once we reach the Poison Sect, it'll be a great contribution."
The companions behind them all agreed with Cao Zhi.
One of them immediately refuted Chen Zhifu, "Zhifu, I think brother Cao Zhi is right. Our combined strength is enough to sweep away the bandits. What are you afraid of? Let's listen to brother Cao Zhi."
"That's right, we'll listen to brother Cao Zhi. For example, brother Cao Zhi did the right thing in dealing with Xiao Yang. If Xiao Yang joins us, we'll all be killed by Xiao Yang sooner or later."
Many of his companions agreed.
This made Chen Zhifu's expression turn a little bitter.
Cao Zhi, on the other hand, was immensely pleased with himself. He felt like he was in the limelight. If Xiao Yang had joined them, he definitely wouldn't have been able to take the leadership. Now that he was leading them, he was in a great mood. Even his only potential competitor had been suppressed by him.
He glanced at Chen Zhifu and reprimanded, "Brother Chen, you too. You need to think before you make a decision. You're so enthusiastic about Xiao Yang joining us. You'll get us killed and the others won't be able to refuse. How awkward would that be?"
"Then look at our personnel. We are all well-known figures in the Tournament of Hegemony. We are all outstanding individuals with extraordinary cultivations. We can't wait for the bandits to come out so that we can make contributions. How can we be so careful and sneak over? Isn't that giving up a chance to make a contribution? "
Chen Zhifu was immediately displeased. He stiffened his neck and said, "These bandits aren't simple. They have connections with the Heretic Alliance, and none of them are easy to deal with. There's nothing wrong with being careful."
"You're so cowardly. You should stay at the back." Cao Zhi coldly snorted.
The other companions all agreed with Cao Zhi.
Chen Zhifu was pushed to the back. He was very unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
They had already entered the ambush set up by the bandits.
The leader of the bandits, Tattoo Toad, slowly raised his hand and then waved it. Immediately, two bandits scattered poison powder from the air. This poison powder could temporarily numb a person's nerves, making them unable to circulate their cultivation. In more serious cases, it could cause them to fall unconscious.
Swish, swish, swish.
There was a lot of movement.
White powder scattered all over the sky.
