Zhang Rui looked at the scene in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief.
It couldn't be helped. No one could believe everything in front of their eyes. There was no battle on the ground. In other words, Lu An did not win with Heaven Skill, but killed them one by one. If that was the case, how did he kill two hundred people in such a short time?
Also, what about the Level 1 Peak Heavenly Master?
These two hundred people were in the same position when the two sides started fighting. They could not even take a step forward, let alone touch the carriages' horses. Looking at Lu An, it was as if he had been watching her fight for a while!
"Gulp." Zhang Rui swallowed her saliva and walked to Lu An. She did not know how to ask the question she wanted to ask. She could only look at the battle behind her and said, "Let's go help them."
"Okay," Lu An said.
Soon, Lu An and Zhang Rui arrived at the battlefield behind them. The Level 1 Peak Heavenly Master was held back by two Heavenly Masters. As for the ordinary people, they had a huge advantage because of one more Heavenly Master. When Lu An and Zhang Rui arrived, they were completely crushed.
Lu An did not show any mercy and killed the bandits at an extremely fast speed. In the end, only one of the bandits was left alive. It was the Level 1 Peak Heavenly Master.
Lu An did not make a move. Under the siege of the other four Heavenly Masters, the exhausted man was quickly defeated. He was tied up and then mercilessly destroyed by Zhang Rui's energy center.
"Ah!!!"
The Heavenly Master screamed. It was unknown whether it was because of the pain of having his energy center destroyed or the despair of having his cultivation destroyed. Soon, the Heavenly Master's aura withered.
"Speak!" Zhang Rui said in a low voice, "Who sent you?!"
Hearing Zhang Rui's question, the surrounding people were stunned and looked at Zhang Rui in shock. Could it be that these people were not ordinary bandits, but were sent by someone else?
Indeed, Zhang Rui did not think so. From the attack just now, it was obvious that they were prepared and did not act hastily when they saw the carriages passing by. There must be instructions behind this. If he didn't know, he would definitely continue to be harassed.
However, after Zhang Rui's question, the man's pale face did not answer at all. He only panted weakly, and his eyes were devoid of desire.
It was the same for any Heavenly Master who became a cripple. They could not accept such a huge difference. Crippling their dantian was no different from killing them. It was said that most Celestial Masters who were crippled would choose to commit suicide.
Therefore, there was nothing for this person to beg for mercy. He sat on the ground like a walking corpse.
"Speak!" Zhang Rui kicked the man's chest, causing him to fall down.
The man fell to the ground, but his eyes were still empty and he didn't say a word.
Zhang Rui didn't know what to do in the face of the other party's hopeless expression. She could only order the people around her, "Tie him up first. We'll interrogate him later!"
"Yes!" Someone replied.
At this moment, Zhang Rui said to everyone, "Check the battlefield and leave as soon as possible!"
"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison.
Soon, these Heavenly Masters began to move. After this battle, everyone looked at Lu An differently. If they were still hostile before, they were now in awe. Especially the three Heavenly Masters who were fighting at the back. Unlike Zhang Rui, they could always see Lu An killing people from the corner of their eyes.
Lu An did not check the battlefield. This was not within the scope of what he had promised at the beginning. He immediately returned to the side of the carriage. The ice disappeared, and Yao was released. At this moment, Yao was more or less frozen. Lu An slowly sent the heat of the Scorching Nine Suns into her body, and she quickly recovered.
"Is it over?" Yao asked Lu An as she looked at him.
"Yes." Lu An smiled and said, "It's fine now."
Yao heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. She was slightly relieved.
Soon, the corpses on the battlefield were cleared to the sides. The rings of the three Heavenly Masters were also taken away. There was indeed a lot of money inside. The convoy immediately set off and left the forest.
Not long after, the convoy left the mountain area. After walking for a while, they set up camp on the grassland. Soon, tents were set up one by one. After the previous battle, everyone was very tired.
The candlelight flickered. Yao was obviously frozen. After eating a simple meal, she went into the tent and slept early. Lu An sat in front of the fire outside the tent. He threw firewood into the fire bit by bit to warm himself.
He was not tired, nor was he sleepy.
Not long after, Gao Jue came to his side. This was the first time he came to find Lu An since Lu An rejected him on the first day. Gao Jue sat on the ground and said to Lu An, "Little brother, it's all thanks to you today!"
Lu An raised his head and looked at Gao Jue. He did not want to cause trouble, nor did he want to become enemies with others. He nodded and said, "You're welcome. Everyone has contributed."
"You're the one who's welcome. I just heard them talking about your strength for a while!" Gao Jue laughed and said casually, "I even spent a lot of money to hire them. They're a bunch of good-for-nothings! If it weren't for you, no one would be able to escape today! "
Lu An nodded and didn't say anything.
If it was before, Gao Jue would be angry when he saw Lu An's silent appearance. But now it was different. He said excitedly, "How about it? Do you want to consider joining Minister Zhou? I guarantee that you'll be treated differently from the other disciples. You'll definitely be superior! Moreover, Minister Zhou loves talented people. He's in a high position and will definitely spend a lot of money to train you! "
Listening to Gao Jue's invitation again, Lu An smiled and said, "You're too kind. I'm really used to wandering around. I can't stay still."
Gao Jue listened to Lu An's rejection again. His face became somewhat gloomy, but this time he did not turn hostile like before. After a while, he smiled and said, "Don't worry. It's still a few days from here to the Imperial Capital. If you think it through, come to me. My invitation is still valid!"
"Okay." Lu An smiled and said.
Seeing that Lu An finally gave an affirmative answer, Gao Jue laughed. Before he left, he patted Lu An's shoulder meaningfully, using his eyes to tell Lu An the benefits of joining Minister Zhou's sect.
After Gao Jue left, the smile on Lu An's face gradually disappeared, and he became calm. The flames reflected on his face, making his face red.
He did not want to be a high-ranking official or a noble.
Not long after, he heard the sound of footsteps again. Lu An turned his head and saw Zhang Rui walking in front of him with a jug of wine.
Without saying anything, Zhang Rui also sat on the side of the fire. The flames also illuminated her face red, making the outline of her side profile very obvious.
Bodyguards had a high tolerance for alcohol. They drank not to get drunk, but to keep themselves excited and sober at all times. Therefore, they were able to control their drinking to just the right degree.
"Want a drink?" Zhang Rui picked up the wine bag and asked.
"I don't drink." Lu An was startled and said.
Zhang Rui nodded and looked at the flames again. The scene fell silent again. Lu An secretly glanced at Zhang Rui, wondering why this woman was looking for him.
"I heard from them that you killed that Heavenly Master instantly." Just as Lu An was feeling puzzled, Zhang Rui suddenly said, "He's a peak grade-one …"
At this point, Zhang Rui, who was about to say something, stopped. She suddenly recalled that when she fought with Lu An that day, she was almost instantly killed.
Lu An was stunned when he heard that. Then, he smiled awkwardly and said, "I was just lucky. The other party saw that I was young, so he didn't put his guard up."
Upon hearing Lu An's words, Zhang Rui turned to look at Lu An. Her eyes flickered as she asked softly, "Are you from the Dacheng Sky Mountain?"
Lu An was stunned. When he heard this question, he frowned slightly. After lowering his head and thinking for a while, he nodded and did not hide it.
"Yes," Lu An said.
After getting Lu An's answer, Zhang Rui laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "You're indeed a disciple of the Dacheng Sky Mountain. I really can't think of any other place that can nurture someone like you. It seems that I was too stupid not to choose to go to the Dacheng Sky Mountain back then. "
Lu An smiled awkwardly and threw the firewood into the fire without saying anything.
At that moment, Zhang Rui took something out of her ring and handed it to Lu An. Lu An took it curiously and realized that it was the alchemy recipe of the Three Origin Pill!
Lu An looked at Zhang Rui in shock and realized that she was looking at him too.
"You deserve it." Zhang Rui stood up and looked at Lu An on the ground. She said quietly, "Thank you for today's matter."
