One second to remember? Little Rain? To provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Boom …" Right at this moment, the ground suddenly trembled slightly, as if there was a faint rumbling sound coming from afar. It was actually getting louder and louder.
"Reinforcements are here!" Du Xi's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Retreat!"
In front of Du Xi, a black clothed man seemed to have awoken from a dream, he looked at Tang Huan fiercely, suddenly shouted out, and rushed towards the forest beside the road.
"Halt!" You won't be able to escape!
"Seeing that, Du Xi shouted loudly, but he was already powerless to stop them.
The remaining men in black also came back to their senses and moved at almost the same time. They didn't even have the time to take away their companions' corpses. In a short moment, the few of them had disappeared without a trace.
As soon as they left, the Martial Warriors s who were still alive all sat on the ground.
Although there were no losses to the goods on the carriage, the fierce battle just now had caused a lot of corpses to increase in the area. Not to mention the six men in black, out of the dozens of Martial Warriors s, seven or eight had been killed, and twenty or so were still alive. The rest had already taken the opportunity to escape.
Tang Huan retracted his gaze, found the cloth and wrapped it around the Crimson Flame Spear.
Just by looking at the eyes of the men in black before they left, Tang Huan knew that they probably hated him. However, Tang Huan did not care, he was currently wearing a mask, after taking it off, he would change his clothes, as long as he was careful not to reveal his weapon, it would not be easy to recognize him.
"Little brother, I'm really sorry. I misunderstood you. If it wasn't for you, none of us would have survived."
A voice suddenly entered his ears, it was Du Xi limping to Tang Huan's side, his face filled with shame and annoyance.
Along with him was a young man in his twenties. He had a delicate face, a slender body, and long hair fluttered behind his head. He held a black spear in his hand, and a long and narrow wound stretched from his left shoulder to his right rib. His chest and abdomen were completely dyed red with blood.
This man was Yin Fei, the second Stage Five Martial Master in the convoy.
"Brother Ye, I have wronged you these past few days. I thought that you had other plans and was disrespectful to you. Please forgive me, little brother." Yin Fei also cupped his hands, an apologetic look in his eyes.
"No worries."
Hearing that, Tang Huan only smiled indifferently.
When he was applying for the position of the convoy guard, he did not use his real name, but a fake name, "Ye Ze". This was actually the name of a university classmate in his previous life.
Hearing Tang Huan's words, Du Xi and Yin Fei felt even more ashamed. The surrounding Martial Warriors could not help but lower their heads in shame. Xiao Yu?
Along the way, although Tang Huan followed the convoy, he was isolated by everyone.
Even when the group of black clothed men appeared just now, the Martial Warriors who were closer to Tang Huan were still on guard against his sneak attack. However, no one would have thought that the person they were guarding against like a thief would actually become everyone's savior in the end.
Just as Du Xi had said, if not for Tang Huan, the convoy would have been completely annihilated.
Du Huan had first quickly killed two Stage Five Martial Master s, and then attracted the attention of four Stage Four Martial Master s. It could be said that he had completely disrupted the rhythm of the opponent's quick battle. Otherwise, the opponent only needed six people to surround Du Xi and Yin Fei, and the six people to chase after the rest of the Martial Warriors s.
At that time, even if reinforcements arrived, they would only be able to see corpses all over the ground.
"Little brother is magnanimous, but it makes me even more ashamed."
Du Xi sighed regretfully, he looked around in the blink of an eye, and smiled bitterly, "If I had listened to little brother's reminder earlier, the losses would not have been so heavy."
Tang Huan hung his spear diagonally on his back, and remained silent, but in his heart, he was guessing.
The sudden robbery this time was extremely strange.
Du Xi was only a Stage Five Martial Master, if he was looking for revenge, he would definitely not be able to attract twelve Stage Five Martial Master s. If Tang Huan's guess was not wrong, the other party was most likely here for the goods.
According to Tang Huan's knowledge, these carriages were all carrying hematite, but from the looks of it, the hematite was most likely just a cover, and the real thing was probably something even more precious.
If it was really just hematite, as long as those robbers weren't stupid, they definitely wouldn't choose to make a move so close to the Phoenix City. After all, with so much hematite, even if they were to rob it, it would be impossible to transport it all away in a short period of time.
However, although Tang Huan was suspicious in his heart, he did not get to the bottom of it.
If he knew too much about this kind of thing, it was very likely that it would attract other troubles. In any case, he was about to arrive at the Phoenix City, so after entering the city, he would part ways.
"Boom …"
The ground trembled even more intensely. Not long later, a black mass of figures appeared at the end of the road in front of them. There were at least a hundred people riding on fine horses, and in just a short moment, they had already arrived in front of the convoy.
The one at the front was a burly man with a dark face. He looked rather strange as he wore a white robe.
"Old Du, are you alright?"
Before the horse had even stopped, the white robed man leaped up from the saddle, instantly crossing over ten meters of space and landed in front of Du Xi, asking anxiously, "Where's the thing, is it still there?"
Du Xi immediately said: "I'm fine, the thing is also here! Twelve Stage Five Martial Master s came, six of them died, and six of them escaped in that direction! "
"That's good!"
The white robed man seemed to heave a sigh of relief, but soon after, he sneered, "They won't be able to escape!" As he spoke, he turned around and shouted at the hundred people who had just reined in their horses, "Dismount and search that way. Don't let a single one of them go. If they're alive, I want to see them. If they're dead, I want to see their corpses!"
"Yes sir!"
Amidst the deafening sound of agreement, over a hundred people leaped to the ground at the same time and galloped in the direction the sturdy man had pointed. In an instant, they disappeared without a trace. Only a dozen or so people remained from the group of reinforcements that had just arrived.
The white robed man turned around and looked at Du Xi with a smile: "Old Du, not bad, you actually killed six Stage Five Martial Master s so quickly!"
"The one who killed them wasn't me, but this little brother Ye Ze. All six of them were killed by him!" Du Xi laughed bitterly and pointed at Tang Huan.
"Oh?"
"..."
After a long while, the convoy continued on their way. Torches were inserted into the shafts of each carriage, illuminating the road.
Tang Huan was still walking at the back of the convoy, and from time to time, there would still be people looking over.
But what was different from before was that there was no longer any guard or ridicule in those eyes. Instead, there was a strong sense of curiosity and admiration. The white robed man was also walking side by side with Tang Huan, talking about all sorts of things and beating around the bush, as if he wanted to find out Tang Huan's identity.
Not long after, under the dim and gloomy night sky, a brightly lit town entered Tang Huan's line of sight.
"Phoenix City!"
