"Could it be that someone is trying to break the prisoner?"
Xiao Lingyu was curious and did not run away like the passers-by for fear of being affected. Instead, she narrowed her eyes and watched carefully.
"How dare you! Do you think you can touch the Marquis' slave miner? "
The brawny man on the horse shouted and then flew up from the demonic beast. A pitchfork suddenly appeared in his hand, and he stabbed at the cultivator wrapped in demonic Qi.
The cultivator covered in demonic Qi snorted coldly, and then the demonic Qi around him turned into a fist and smashed at the pitchfork.
Bang!!!
An earth-shattering explosion came from the prisoner carriage, and the ground and the surrounding buildings trembled.
After the fist made contact with the pitchfork, the demonic Qi dissipated in an instant, and the pitchfork flew far away with the brawny man.
Before the crowd could see the cultivator's appearance clearly, the dispersed demonic Qi gathered on his body again.
Before the brawny man could attack again, the cultivator's demonic Qi gathered again and formed a fist, but this time, it smashed hard on the back of the demonic saber in the cultivator's hand.
Boom!!!
Another explosion came, but this time, it was accompanied by a dazzling light.
The light came from the prisoner carriage, and it was the power of the talisman on the iron cage of the prisoner carriage. But in just a moment, the light disappeared, and the prisoner carriage was torn to pieces.
Before the cultivator could do anything, the brawny man attacked again with his pitchfork.
The cultivator seemed to have no time to recall his demonic Qi, or the demonic Qi had been exhausted, and he could no longer use it to defend himself, but his demonic saber swept out horizontally.
Clang!!
The demonic saber and the pitchfork collided, and a string of sparks burst out. The two demonic weapons collided violently, and the powerful momentum instantly flattened all the shaking buildings on the street.
"Third Uncle!" The little boy who sent the voice transmission to Xiao Lingyu shouted.
"Go!"
The aura of the cultivator who broke out of the prison was still rising. The demonic saber in his hand also shone with a demonic light, sweeping the pitchfork away. One of his feet also ruthlessly kicked the burly man's lower abdomen.
The pitchfork flew out of the brawny man's hand, and the brawny man was sent flying backward, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
"Let's go!"
The escaping cultivator let loose a loud cry as bursts of devilish Qi surged out from his body. In just a few moments, the entire street block within a radius of several thousand feet had been completely submerged.
Xiao Lingyu had been staring at the little boy just now. When she saw the little boy's sorrowful face full of tears, she felt a little sad. Therefore, her body was also drowned by the demonic Qi.
Surrounded by demonic Qi, Xiao Lingyu was shocked to find that her thoughts were completely confined to her body. All she could see was billowing demonic Qi, and she couldn't see more than a foot away with her naked eye.
It was obvious that the cultivator who broke out of the prison was covering for the little boy's escape, and the Devil Qi should be the cultivator's power released through magic.
Xiao Lingyu was just about to fly out of this area shrouded in Devil Qi, but his sleeve was pulled, and he heard a child's voice saying to him, "Take me away!"
"Let me go! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. "Xiao Lingyu's heart trembled as he was pulled back, and he said nervously.
"Take me away, I beg you. If we don't leave now, the city guards will completely surround this place!" the little boy begged.
Xiao Lingyu could actually shake off the little boy, but he wasn't one of those cold-blooded demons. Deep down, he didn't think of himself as a cultivator of the Devil Dao. He always felt that he was still a normal person with flesh and blood and rich emotions. Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, he reached out and grabbed the little boy's arm. Then, in a flash, he moved more than three thousand feet forward.
Just as the little boy expected, at this moment, there were already many experts from the city guards rapidly surrounding them. If Xiao Lingyu was half a beat slower, he and the little boy would have been surrounded in the area where the demonic Qi was wreaking havoc.
Before the experts from the city guards formed an encirclement, Xiao Lingyu and the little boy escaped first. Then, he brought the little boy to the city gate without looking back.
"The city guards shouldn't have taken you as a target yet, right?" Xiao Lingyu asked as he sped along.
"Absolutely not. They don't know who I am. I was just a slave miner before. It will take some time for the city guards to find out about the situation just now," the little boy said with certainty.
"I hope you don't cause me big trouble. Otherwise, hmph!" Xiao Lingyu said unhappily.
"I will only bring you great benefits!" the little boy said calmly.
"Why do you have to keep an eye on me?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"First, it's because you are different from other cultivators of the Devil Dao. I can see that, so you don't have to deny it. Second, you didn't directly run away just now, which proves that your curiosity is very strong. Third, it's because you are the strongest person around at that time," the little boy said methodically.
"Your eyesight is very sharp, but with your cultivation, you shouldn't be able to see these things," Xiao Lingyu said with a gloomy expression.
"My eyesight is sharp. That's my innate talent. Although my cultivation isn't high, I can see through many things that you experts can't see through," the little boy said calmly without the slightest hint of arrogance in his tone.
"No wonder that cultivator risked his life to save you," Xiao Lingyu said in a muffled voice.
"Sooner or later, I will avenge him and my family," the little boy said hatefully.
From this, Xiao Lingyu could tell that this little boy was definitely someone with a story. However, although he was a genius at such a young age, now that he was carrying a huge grudge, it was bound to affect his state of mind and his future development. This made Xiao Lingyu feel a little more sympathy for him.
The two of them quickly arrived at the city gate. The city gate didn't seem to have changed because of what had just happened in the city. There were still people going in and out. The cultivators coming and going and the guards at the gate all had very normal expressions on their faces.
There were no accidents when they left Mengyi City. The guards didn't stop them. They probably hadn't received any news yet, or the little boy's importance wasn't enough to alarm the guards.
Xiao Lingyu didn't dare to stay. After leaving Mengyi City, he first walked for a while. When there was no one around, he flew into the sky.
After flying for more than four hours, Xiao Lingyu finally dared to stop in a forest.
"Now that you're out of danger, we'll part ways here."
After Xiao Lingyu finished speaking, he turned around and flew away. He didn't want to stay a moment longer.
But just as he turned around, his sleeve was pulled again.
"If you want to save me, you have to do it until the end. This place isn't far from Mengyi City. My cultivation isn't high, so my speed is very slow. If you leave me behind, I might be caught again," the little boy said with a pleading expression.
"You're just a mining slave. They might not go through so much trouble just to catch you." Xiao Lingyu flung his sleeve and shook off the little boy's hand. But after speaking, he didn't fly away.
"I was just a mining slave in their eyes before, but after today, I definitely won't be. They'll definitely chase after me. I have to hide in a safe place," the little boy explained gloomily.
"That's your problem. It has nothing to do with me," Xiao Lingyu said coldly.
"Have you ever thought that if I'm caught, they'll force a confession out of me or directly search my soul. They'll definitely find out about your existence. They definitely won't let you go." Seeing that the soft approach didn't work, the little boy could only use the hard approach.
"It won't be easy for them to find me," Xiao Lingyu said unconcernedly.
"It really won't be easy. If you run far away and don't come within a million miles of Mengyi City, it will indeed be very difficult for them to find you. But if I'm caught by them in a short period of time, I think their experts will have already found you before you can escape a million miles," the little boy said very shrewdly.
Xiao Lingyu and the little boy didn't talk much, only a few words, but he was depressed to find that he couldn't gain the upper hand in words. The little boy seemed to have calculated everything, and his mind seemed to be very mature.
"How old are you this year?" Xiao Lingyu suddenly asked curiously.
"Less than two hundred years old," the little boy replied.
Xiao Lingyu originally thought that although this little boy looked young, he should actually be older than him. But he didn't expect him to be less than two hundred years old.
"It's really a pity to lose your life before you're two hundred years old. Alright, I'll do as you said and save you until the end."
Xiao Lingyu felt that this little boy was a promising talent. If he could cultivate peacefully, he would definitely have extraordinary achievements in the future. So, he decided to save him and took him into the sky again.
"You saved me today, so I'll definitely repay you a hundredfold in the future. Trust me, although I'm young, I'll definitely keep my word!"
The little boy promised Xiao Lingyu as soon as he stabilized his speed.
"You should also know that there's no place in the Devil Realm that's completely safe. The place I'm taking you to is definitely not a good place. It's a bandit's lair, and there are more than thirty strong bandits living there," Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
"Bandit's lair?" The little boy frowned slightly.
"Those bandits aren't very smart. I believe that if you go there and interact with them, you won't be at a disadvantage. Moreover, you can even give them advice and give them pointers to strengthen themselves."
Xiao Lingyu immediately told the little boy about the bandit's lair as they flew. He also repeated what he said to those bandits.
"Your idea is not bad, but if you don't personally command those bandits, with their impulsive personalities, it'll be difficult for them to carry out your idea. In the end, you'll just be wasting your breath," the little boy said after he heard what Xiao Lingyu said, pursing his lips.
"That's why I've decided to leave you there. Perhaps it won't be long before you become the leader of a powerful bandit alliance," Xiao Lingyu replied with a nod.
"When that time comes, I'll be able to lead a large group of bandits to take revenge," the little boy said with narrowed eyes.
"Yes, this is also a challenge and an opportunity for you. It'll depend on how you handle it. I don't have much time to command them," Xiao Lingyu said without changing his expression.
