Divine Lands.
After completing the Chaos Heaven Lock Formation, Lin Tian's soul power was completely depleted. The piercing pain made him frown deeply.
At this point, he no longer had any extra energy to determine the coordinates. He could only roughly find a direction and use the last of his energy to send himself in.
As for where exactly this place was, Lin Tian could not be sure. Anyway, it was probably near the Middle Continent.
This was the limit of what he could do now.
After all, he could not use his soul and his energy was depleted. He could only rely on his eyes to determine the coordinates.
Luo Qingwu and Luo Changdong were also sent to this area by him.
Bang!
Lin Tian just stepped out of the void and could not help but fall. Immediately, a strong sense of exhaustion surged in his heart.
"This is bad …"
Lin Tian sighed in his heart. He could not help but reveal a bitter smile on his face. He only saw a patch of white snow flashing in front of his eyes. Then, he closed his eyes heavily.
Goose feather-like snow slowly drifted down from the sky and covered his body. It became one with his white robes.
After some time, a group of carriages slowly drove over from afar. They carried carts after carts of goods.
Evidently, this was a group of merchants.
"Stop!"
Just as they were about to reach Lin Tian, the youth riding on a big horse at the front suddenly made a hand gesture and stopped abruptly.
Then, the group of carriages behind also stopped moving forward.
The guards at the side all held the hilts of their swords at their waists. They looked around cautiously, as if they were worried that someone would attack them.
"Why did you stop?"
At this moment, a crisp and pleasant voice came from one of the carriages in the middle.
Then, the curtains of the carriage slowly opened.
An exquisite oval face appeared quietly. Her brows were like a painting and her eyes were filled with confusion.
"Eh, Miss, look, there's someone in front!"
At this moment, a small head popped out from the side of the beautiful girl. She pointed at Lin Tian, who was half-covering his body under a tree and exclaimed.
"Eh?"
Hearing that, the girl looked over and then frowned. "It's really a person …"
"Send someone over to take a look."
The young girl immediately ordered.
Soon, a guard came back from the other side and reported, "Reporting to Young Miss, it's a young man who looks to be about 20 years old. He's already unconscious, but we didn't find any injuries on his body. He should be seriously ill."
"Seriously ill?"
Hearing this, the girl raised her eyebrows and asked in confusion, "Could it be that he's an ordinary person?"
One had to know that although cultivators couldn't be immune to all kinds of evil, they wouldn't get sick easily either.
"Very likely."
Hearing this, the guard nodded seriously.
When he was inspecting Lin Tian just now, he didn't find anything related to cultivation on him.
If it was a cultivator, such a situation would almost never occur.
After all, no matter how weak or poor a cultivator was, they still needed to cultivate. It was impossible for them to not have a single spirit stone on them.
But Lin Tian didn't have anything special on him other than a gourd hanging from his waist.
Instead, he looked like a romantic scholar in the secular world.
Moreover, he was the extremely poor kind.
Hearing the guard's report, the girl glanced at Lin Tian, who was half-buried in the snow. She hesitated for a moment, then finally gritted her teeth and made a decision. "Spare a carriage and bring him along."
"Yes."
Hearing his Young Miss's order, the guard naturally didn't dare to delay and immediately responded.
"Wait!"
Just as he was about to call for someone to carry Lin Tian over, a loud voice suddenly rang out.
The purple-robed young man, who had been walking at the front, slowly rode over on his horse.
"Ziyi, what are you doing?"
The purple-robed young man asked with a frown.
"Of course I'm saving him."
The girl replied disapprovingly.
"Saving him?"
Hearing this, the purple-robed young man turned to look at Lin Tian and said with a look of disdain, "What's the point of saving a damned beggar? Moreover, this person's background is unknown. The journey to the Northern Plains isn't peaceful. There are countless bandits along the way and it might be a trap. Ziyi, as the leader of this caravan, you can't let your guard down. "
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. If we hadn't met, I wouldn't have cared. But since we've met, we naturally can't leave him to die. That's not the style of the Zhang family."
Zhang Ziyi frowned and said, "Moreover, Fan Wei, I've already sent someone to confirm that this is just an ordinary person. Don't think of the world as such a dark place, alright?"
Seeing that Zhang Ziyi was a little angry, the purple-robed young man called Fan Wei said helplessly, "Ziyi, I'm doing this for your own good!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi's expression softened a little. Then, she looked at the guard and continued to order, "Go, save this person first."
"If he's really suspicious, chase him away."
With that, Zhang Ziyi didn't give the others a chance to speak and directly withdrew her head.
The remaining girl with delicate features, dressed as a servant girl, stuck out her tongue at the crowd mischievously before withdrawing her head as well.
Seeing the curtain of the carriage, Fan Wei's expression gradually darkened and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
"Damned woman, I've chased you for three years and you've never given me any face. Today, you're actually falling out with me for a beggar who's about to die. What a slut."
"If you fall into my hands one day, I'll definitely make you beg for death."
Fan Wei looked deeply at the carriage Zhang Ziyi was in. His eyes were vicious and his expression was somewhat savage. Then, he couldn't help but snort coldly and turn around to leave.
On the way, he passed by Lin Tian who was being carried by the crowd. He glanced over and instructed with a somewhat cold gaze, "All of you keep an eye on him. If he's the slightest bit suspicious, kill him without mercy!"
"Yes, Young Master Fan."
Hearing this, the surrounding guards hurriedly replied.
After all, in this place, aside from the eldest miss of the Zhang Trading Company, Fan Wei's words had the highest authority.
This was because he was an expert personally selected by the head of the Zhang family from Snow Sky City. He was specifically responsible for commanding them and protecting the safety of the convoy.
Before setting out, the head of the Zhang family had even instructed that if necessary, they could even disobey Zhang Ziyi, but they had to listen to Fan Wei's commands.
This attitude was already completely nurturing him as a future son-in-law. Therefore, no one dared to disobey his orders.
After carrying Lin Tian onto a carriage, the convoy continued to move, following the withered trees on both sides as they slowly advanced towards the north.
The wheels of the carriage left a long trail in the vast expanse of snow.
