It was already afternoon when they left the city. They didn't walk too far before the sky turned dark.
It wasn't easy for him to find a forest. He parked the ox cart by the roadside and came back with some firewood.
The roars of wild beasts could be heard in the forest. From time to time, they could also hear some rustling in the underbrush, but they couldn't see anything.
"There are only steamed buns left …" Ren Baqian took out some steamed buns from the carriage. These were taken from the hotel. After all, they were in a hurry to leave, and it was good enough to have steamed buns to eat.
Ren Baqian sprinkled some salt and chilli on the steamed buns until they were slightly charred. The taste was pretty good.
A spicy sauce would be even better.
After eating the steamed buns, the two of them lay on the grass and looked up at the sky, the mosquitoes buzzing in their ears.
Slap! Ren Baqian gave himself a slap and perished together with a large mosquito.
"Why is it only me?" Ren Baqian felt that something was amiss. Lin Qiaole wasn't affected at all, but those mosquitoes were moving toward him.
"Hu — hu —"
Ren Baqian turned his head to look and saw a mosquito land on her face. Its proboscis pierced into her face, but it was as if it had pierced into a steel plate. The moment it came into contact with her face, the proboscis broke, and the remaining mosquito flew into the air with an aggrieved look on its face.
His skin was so thick that it made others envious and jealous.
Ren Baqian sighed and continued to lie there and look at the sky. The night sky of this world was filled with stars and was extremely beautiful. On Earth, he could see the beautiful night sky when he was young, but he couldn't see it anymore after he grew up.
"The dark sky hangs low
Accompanied by a sea of bright stars
The Insects Fly
The insects are flying … "
Ren Baqian smacked his lips and couldn't continue singing. He was already a mosquito. Mosquitoes fly, mosquitoes fly …
The sound of horses galloping in the distance broke the silence of the night.
Ren Baqian felt that he might have something to do if he traveled at night on a fast horse. In the afternoon, he knew that someone would definitely chase after him, but it was a little slower than he expected.
"Wake up, there's work to do."
"I'll do it when I wake up …" Lin Qiaole said in a daze.
"I can wait, but they probably can't!"
While the two of them were talking, the sound of horse hooves got closer.
There were at least six or seven horses.
"There's fire. There's someone in front."
"Based on the route, it's most likely them. Be careful."
The few people on horseback saw the fire in the distance and immediately became spirited. They hurried and finally caught up. The other party had actually killed a few disciples of the Nine Blades Sect in Longshou City. No matter what, they could not let him off.
The sound of the horse's hooves stopped outside the range of the firelight.
In the dark, they saw two people lying not far from the bonfire and immediately knew that they had found their targets.
"Sirs, I don't know how my Nine Blades Sect's disciples offended the two of you for you to use such a vicious method. Out of five of them, only one survived. Furthermore, he was seriously injured. In the future, even if he were to be cured, he would be crippled. Aren't the methods of the two of you too vicious? Do you think you can just leave after killing someone? " Six people walked out of the dark night. The first two were in their fifties or sixties, while the other four were in their thirties or forties. They all had a capable aura about them.
"They are too ugly …" Ren Baqian said without hesitation. Although the other party had provoked him first, the Nine Blades Sect was just a small sect in Ren Baqian's eyes. On the other hand, he was a member of the palace and was a Secondary class, Rank 4 official.
If he wasn't out on a mission this time, he could simply transfer a team of guards to destroy the entire Nine Blades Sect.
With such a huge gap, he naturally couldn't be bothered to explain to the people of the Nine Blades Sect.
Furthermore, there was no need to explain.
Was he supposed to say that the other party had deliberately offended him and reason with them? Ren Baqian couldn't be bothered to do such a thing.
The people of the Nine Blades Sect had come with anger. The reason why they didn't make a move was because they saw the corpse of the horse and knew that the girl was an expert.
Upon hearing Ren Baqian's words, they were even more furious. If they let the two of them go, the Nine Blades Sect would no longer be able to show its face in the future.
"Since you said so, there's no need to say anything more. Capture them and wait for the sect master to deal with them." One of them laughed angrily and didn't say anything else. He leaped into the air and pounced toward the two people. The others also surrounded them.
Ren Baqian lay on the ground, held his pistol, and fired three consecutive shots at the figure in the air.
After three consecutive gunshots, the person changed his position in the air and shouted, "Trying to hurt me with mere concealed weapons? You are looking down on the Nine Blades Sect."
Along with this voice, a lotus flower formed by snow-white blade gleams bloomed in the air.
When the person in the air saw that the two of them did not move, he relaxed. He thought to himself that the two of them were still young and had not seen much of the world. That young girl could kill a horse and was quite strong. However, when faced with a life and death battle, she was stunned.
After capturing the two of them, he wanted to let them know that this was Tianjing Basin, not the Yun Nation. Not everyone could be arrogant and despotic here.
The lives of those disciples would be repaid by the two of them with their lives.
That girl would first pose in 18 positions to satisfy her craving before killing them to pay with her life.
The eyes of the people surrounding them lit up when they saw the snow-white lotus flower in the air. This move was called "Seventh Blade." The Nine Blades Sect's name wasn't because of the nine blades, but because of the nine moves. Each move was extremely powerful, and the later the moves, the more powerful they were.
No one had mastered "Ninth Blade" for many years, and only the sect leader had mastered "Eighth Blade." This move was the strongest move after "Seventh Blade."
This elder used the strongest move from the start, and it was obvious that he was determined to win.
Just as all kinds of thoughts were running through everyone's minds, a figure suddenly bounced up from the ground and rushed in front of him at a faster speed. The body twisted a few times in the air and passed through the saber light. Before he could react, a claw slashed at his face, and then another.
That person's face was covered with 10 bloody marks, and his entire face was beyond recognition. He screamed and fell from the air.
This unforeseen event shocked the people surrounding them. One had to know that the person who fell was an intermediate Earth Wheel expert, yet he was actually defeated in one round.
"Spirit Wheel …" A hoarse voice with a slight tremble could be heard.
Everyone was shocked. Spirit Wheel expert? One had to know that a Spirit Wheel expert was definitely an expert among experts no matter where he was.
If he were to become an official in Great Xia, he would at least be a rank four official.
Most of the practitioners had probably never seen a Spirit Wheel expert in their entire lives.
Now, this little girl was actually a Spirit Wheel expert? They were actually going to make a move against a Spirit Wheel expert?
Thinking about what they were about to do, everyone suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
There was nothing worse than being an enemy of a Spirit Wheel expert. If there was, it would be what they were preparing to do. They were preparing to make a move against a Spirit Wheel expert.
It was simply putting their necks on the edge of a knife.
No one doubted the words of that voice because it belonged to another elder who was also an Earth Wheel expert.
This time, the Nine Blades Sect had sent two Earth Wheel experts to capture the two of them.
One had to know that the Nine Blades Sect only had a total of five Earth Wheel experts and was already the largest sect in Longshou City. Earth Wheel experts could already do whatever they wanted in most places.
However, they didn't expect to encounter an even more tyrannical person this time. She was actually a Spirit Wheel expert?
Lin Qiaole landed on the ground, licked her paws, and frowned. It seemed that the taste of blood wasn't that good.
"Be careful of diarrhea …" Ren Baqian saw her actions and couldn't help but say, "Don't you find it dirty to lick the blood of any Tom, Dick, or Harry?"
Lin Qiaole immediately rubbed her paws on her body.
If they were previously judged as a Tom, Dick, or Harry, the people from the Nine Blades Sect would definitely fight to the death with the other party.
However, after knowing that the other party was a Spirit Wheel expert, all these thoughts disappeared. Now, they were thinking about how to leave this place alive.
