Chapter 4735: Intercept
He sat in the spirit beast carriage, listening to the lady outside talking to her guards. She was probably saying that black robed men had attacked in the middle of the night, and she had gotten out of the carriage to check, only to find that a mysterious master had saved them. However, she had fallen into a deep sleep for some unknown reason and didn’t know what had happened after that.
Perhaps because there were no losses and the black-clothed assassins were all dead, the guards disposed of the bodies on the ground and prepared to continue their journey.
Muchen got out of the spirit beast carriage and bowed to the lady, saying, “Thank you for your kindness, but I have to leave and cannot accompany you.”
Seeing this, the lady just looked at him and said, “Be careful on your way, and we’ll see you again someday.”
“Mm.” Muchen replied, glanced at her, and then quickly left on his own.
Watching the child leave, the maid couldn’t help but say, “Lady, that child’s footwork looks very exquisite, and he’s very fast. I don’t think it would be easy for us to catch up with him!”
“Mm, that child is not a simple person.” The lady smiled, a hint of pleasure appearing on her lips. “I didn’t expect to meet such an interesting child on this trip. It’s just a pity that we didn’t have much time together.”
“Perhaps you will meet him again in the future?” The maid smiled and said, “Madam, please sleep a little longer. I will wake you when we reach the next rest stop.”
“Mm.” The lady replied and rested in the spirit beast carriage.
The convoy moved forward slowly. Because of what happened last night, everyone was on high alert today, not daring to be the slightest bit careless or relax…
A few days later, Hao’er finally gathered all the crystal cores in the forest. After sending a message to his younger brother and sister, he also set off to find the way out of the forest.
However, just as he was about to leave the forest, he was stopped by a group of mercenaries.
“Hehe, kid, you must have gotten a lot of crystal cores these past few days, right? Hand them over and call us Grandfather, and we’ll let you go.” A man with a large sword on his shoulder revealed a greedy look and stared at Hao’er with a wicked gaze.
Hao’er stopped in his tracks, his small face expressionless, without a hint of fear. He turned slightly to the side and glanced at the Heaven’s Sun Sect members that had been following him. Seeing that they were hiding behind the trees and did not seem to be planning to show themselves, his heart stirred and his mind raced.
Behind them, the hidden group watched the scene unfold in front of them. Some of the disciples looked slightly moved, as if they couldn’t bear to watch, but most of them looked like they were enjoying the show.
“Elder, are we really not going to help? He’s so small, he definitely can’t beat that group of mercenaries. He got those crystal cores by hunting fierce beasts, and these mercenaries are even picking up a child’s crystal cores. This is really too much!” a young girl whispered, her eyes filled with indignation and injustice.
The elder stroked his beard, narrowed his eyes, and said slowly, “What is there to help? Have you forgotten how abnormal this kid is?! He hunted down almost all the fierce beasts in the forest. Now those people are looking for trouble with him, what does that have to do with us? You must understand that he is not a disciple of our sect, so he is not under our protection.”
Hearing this, the young girl couldn’t say a word and could only feel anxious.
