Chapter 636 - Bandits

Chapter 636 Bandits

Chu Xun stopped thinking and absorbed spiritual energy hard to recover from his injuries. He almost died in outer space.

The surrounding vicious birds and ferocious beasts were all frightened away.

Chu Xun’s movement of absorbing spiritual energy was terrifying. Even if the beasts and birds didn’t have intelligence, they were born to avoid danger.

Chu Xun kept on absorbing for two hours, and all the spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles had been absorbed by him.

It would take a long time for a mountain to produce more spiritual energy. Chu Xun couldn’t wait, so he planned to find another place.

The group of the Wen Family was heading towards Tong’an City.

“Sis, will that big brother be all right?” Wen Ruyi was still worried about Chu Xun. He was kindhearted, but his kindness might make it uneasy for him to live in this cutthroat world. Therefore, Wen Rushan took him out to see the world this time.

Wen Rushan nodded. “He’ll be fine.”

In fact, she didn’t know about it at all. In this era where the strong were respected, the strong could do anything to the weak. If the strong were unsatisfied with the weak, they could even kill the weak.

She prayed that Chu Xun was smart enough to avoid the expert who was cultivating and wouldn’t die.

“Everyone, be careful. The road ahead of us is Ghost Gate Road,” the elder reminded his companions.

The so-called Ghost Gate Road was a road between two mountains. Because of two mountains aside it, there was no sunlight all year round. The road was dark, and bandits often set up ambushes here, so its name was Ghost Gate Road.

Everyone felt nervous because of the road name. Too many merchants had died here, and the group of Wen Family had gone down it many times. With the protection of the elder, they had been safe.

“Ruyi, follow me.” Wen Rushan took out two low-grade Sacred Relics. They were two short sabers.

Ghost Gate Road was exactly a hundred kilometers long. After passing the road, they had another hundred kilometers to arrive in Tong’an City.

Everyone was on their guard. Having gathered their strength, they lowered the sounds of their breaths and tightened their grip on their sabers.

Swoosh!

A sharp arrow whistled towards the elder.

The elder raised his hand and swatted the arrow away. He looked over coldly and saw a group of people blocking his way.

Everyone became nervous. What they feared came true. As expected, they encountered bandits. The number of the bandits was more than one hundred, several times the number of their people.

“It’s Hu Er.” The elder’s expression changed.

Wen Rushan’s expression darkened. They weren’t afraid of any small group of bandits, but the group of bandits led by Hu Er was the largest in a fifty-kilometer radius. They burned, killed, and looted wherever they went. They had committed all sorts of crimes.

“Please protect Ruyi well, Miss. I’ll talk to them,” the elder said.

Wen Rushan nodded.

The elder took a few steps forward, cupped his hands, and said, “Heroes, we are from the Wen Family in Tong’an City. Please give way to us.”

After that, the elder picked up a bag and threw it over. There were 200 low-grade spiritual herbs inside. If he met a small group of bandits, he would give less spiritual herbs.

The group of bandits separated. A tall and sturdy man dressed in hemp clothes stepped forward, carrying a broadsword on his back. One of his eyes was blind. He had a black face and looked a bit sinister. He was Hu Er.

Hu Er walked forward and picked up the bag thrown by the elder. He opened it and looked inside. Then he casually tossed it to the subordinate behind him. He sneered and said, “The Wen Family is too stingy.”

The elder’s expression changed, knowing that he wasn’t satisfied.

“Mr. Hu, I respect you as a hero. I have walked this path countless times and know the rules. Don’t you think that you will be too greedy if you ask for more herbs?”

“Haha... I have engaged in a no-cost business all the time. Since you said I am greedy, then I’ll show you.” Hu Er removed the broadsword from his shoulder and caused a large amount of dust to rise from the ground. It was heavy. He opened his ugly big mouth and said, “If you want to go over there, leave all three carts of spirit herbs to us.”

The elder was so angry that he laughed. “Can you eat so much? Aren’t you afraid of bursting to death?”

The elder was not afraid of him because Hu Er was a third-grade Human King like him. If they fought, the elder wouldn’t fail.

“Haha...I might not be able to eat so much in the past, but I can today.” Hu Er laughed.

“Hu Er, aren’t you afraid of arousing public anger?” The elder said coldly.

Every profession had its own rules. The group of people lived on the robbery. If they were not too greedy, the major families were willing to share the profits with them. If they were too greedy, the major families would definitely join forces to annihilate them.

In the beginning, the group of bandits more powerful than that of Hu Er was annihilated by the three big families because it was too greedy. The group of Hu Er appeared not long. Hu Er obeyed the rules, so the big families didn’t care about his group. Unexpectedly, his ambition was getting bigger and bigger, and now he wanted them to give him three carts of spiritual herbs.

Hu Er grinned. “Will I arouse public anger? Do you mean the anger of the three big families of Tong’an City? Do you think I’m afraid of you? Today, we will also enter Tong’an City, and the three big families will respect us .”

“Have you lost your mind?” The elder was stunned for a moment and sneered in disdain.

If Hu Er wanted to enter Tong’an City, not only would the three great families not agree, but the City Lord would also immediately wipe him out.

“Master Mu knows whether or not I’ve lost my mind.” Hu Er laughed crazily.

The crowd separated, and a handsome man in white slowly stepped forward. He raised his head slightly and looked arrogant.

The elder looked at the young man curiously at first. When he found a faint but powerful aura from the man, his expression suddenly changed. The young man was a high-level Human King.

“Lei Ming, do you still think I’m out of my mind?” Hu Er asked arrogantly.

The elder’s face darkened. It was not strange that Hu Er knew his name, but where did this young man come from? His aura was even stronger than the householder of the Wen Family.

“Nice to meet you, everyone!” The young man surnamed Mu bowed slightly, but he was not honest. “I am Mu Qi, and I promised to give these brothers a home so that they wouldn’t have to wander from place to place. I chose Tong’an City. To live peaceful lives, they need a large number of resources. Today, I borrow these spiritual herbs from you. When we settle down, I will definitely return you double the number of the herbs.”

“What if we aren’t willing to lend you?” Lei Ming’s face was cold.

“Haha...You will make it hard for us to settle down. I always keep my words. Since I have decided to give a family to these brothers, I must do it. If you aren’t willing to lend the herbs to me, I can only take them myself.” Mu Qi’s words sounded he was in a difficult situation. But within his eyes, a cold glint flickering.

“Humph, I am under the orders of our householder to do business. Even if I die, I will not allow anyone to touch the things of my Wen Family,” Lei Ming cried out sternly.

“What a loyal servant. Since you want to fight for the Wen Family, then I will help you fulfill your wish.” Mu Qi laughed savagely as the aura around his body rose and was extremely violent.
