Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 356
Chapter 356 Bandits
When Ye Feng came out of seclusion, very few people in the Ye Clan knew that Ye Feng had already faded out of the clan. Even some elders were polite and respectful when they saw Ye Feng. As for those disciples, when they saw Ye Feng, they all worshipped him.
“Feng’er, have you decided to return to the academy?”
At the dining table, Ye Wu heard that Ye Feng intended to leave in the next two days. He returned to the academy, put down his wine glass and asked Ye Feng.
“Yes, father. I’ve been back for four months now. It’s time to go back to the academy and take a look. Besides, my cultivation has encountered a bottleneck. I need to go out and train for a while!”
Ye Feng did not conceal anything. If his physical body could not break through, his realm would always be stuck in the early Heavenly Martial Stage. He had to find the space fragment as soon as possible.
“Father won’t let you stay. The clan is already on track, so you can leave without worries. Leave the clan’s affairs to me!”
Ye Wu wasn’t pretentious either. Yellow City was still too small to leave Ye Feng behind. His stage shouldn’t even be the Divine Continent of the Southern Domain, but the entire Divine Martial Continent.
Hearing that the child was about to leave, Mother Ye began to sob. Although Ye Feng had stayed in the clan for four months this time, Ye Feng had been in seclusion for more than three months, and the clan had only been together for ten days.
The meal ended in a dull atmosphere. In the evening, Ye Feng and Qi Ruomei sat in the courtyard and looked up at the starry sky.
“Big Brother Ye, your family is really good. If you keep living like this, it would be great. There is no fight, no deception, only simplicity!”
After all, Qi Ruomei was a woman. She was tired of living a life of treachery. Especially in the cultivation world, she was the only one who respected herself. For the sake of resources, even her fellow disciples would fight.
“Don’t worry, I’ll come back when I have the chance in the future!”
This was Ye Feng’s root. No matter where he went, Ye Feng would always come back.
The next day, Ye Feng decided to leave. Without any notice, he quietly left the clan and left Yellow City with Qi Ruomei and Ya’er.
“Big Brother Ye, why are we heading in the opposite direction? This is not the way back to the academy!”
Ye Feng did not choose to fly, but left in the opposite direction with the two women.
“Nothing much. I’ll show you the landform and customs of the continent!”
Ye Feng smiled faintly. This time, Ye Feng had deliberately changed his route.
Last time, he threatened Da Luo Academy, and even the Da Luo Academy Master appeared. He didn’t rule out that they would jump over the wall in haste and send people to kill him halfway. That was why they deliberately took a detour.
Because they weren’t flying, Ye Feng and the others joined a caravan and sat in the carriage, heading west.
Half a month in a row, the three of them ate some beast meat when they were hungry, used a water talisman when they were dirty, and spent the rest of their time meditating and cultivating.
“Young Master Ye, we have arrived at the mountain gate stronghold. Do you want to follow us into the Yangxi Mountain Range, or do you want to separate here?”
The convoy suddenly stopped. Outside Ye Feng’s carriage, a skinny old man stood on the spot with a very straightforward voice.
Ye Feng opened the curtain and walked down from the carriage. He looked at the fork in the road ahead. If he continued westward, he would enter the Yangxi Mountain Range. If he went south, he would be able to return to the Heavenly Spiritual Academy.
“Thank you for taking care of me along the way. This junior is very grateful. We have to head south. Goodbye!”
As he walked west, he would walk further and further. Ye Feng did not want to waste too much time. Moreover, he had already made a detour for half a month. Even if someone tried to kill him halfway, he would not have thought that Ye Feng had made such a big detour.
“Young Master, you’re too polite. Since that’s the case, we’ll meet again!”
The skinny old man waved his hand and the carriage slowly drove towards the direction of the Western Yangshan Mountains.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh …”
Not far away from the carriage, dozens of sharp arrows pierced through the void and whistled towards the caravan.
“Not good, there are robbers!”
The skinny old man greeted. There were about twenty people in the caravan. Apart from some alchemists, there were only a dozen guards accompanying him. The strongest ones were only at the Houtian 9th layer. Most of them were between the 7th and 8th layer.
“Ding ding ding dang!”
The dozen or so guards reacted in a timely manner. They pulled out their weapons and blocked the arrows while the alchemists hid under the carriage, trembling in fear.
“I am that drive of this mountain, and I am the planter of this tree. If you want to cross this path, stay behind and buy your fortune!”
With a long howl, hundreds of figures rushed out from both sides of the mountain path, surrounding a caravan of more than ten people.
When the skinny old man saw a group of bandits appear, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. He quickly calmed down and threw a punch at the bandits in the lead.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we are just an ordinary caravan. We don’t have anything valuable. I hope that all of you will be kind enough to let us go. This is a greeting gift. Please accept it with a smile!”
The skinny old man was indeed worthy of being called an old Jianghu. He knew that it was not appropriate to get angry at this moment, so he immediately smiled and welcomed him. He took out a box from the carriage and respectfully handed it over to the bandit leader.
The leader of the bandits was not pretentious either. He took the box and opened it. There was a 200-year-old blood ginseng inside. It was not easy to find a 200-year-old blood ginseng in the Open Source Nation. If it wasn’t for the life and death situation, the skinny old man wouldn’t have taken it out.
“For your sake, leave the things behind. You can scram now!”
The bandits were very particular about robbing people and not killing them.
“Sir, these are all ordinary medicinal ingredients. Even if we sell them, they won’t be worth much. We all have to rely on these yams to survive. Sir, please give us a big hand and let us go!”
The skinny old man took out a blood ginseng. It was already very painful. If he even lost the goods, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to the buyer. Even if he lost all of his family’s wealth, it wouldn’t be enough to compensate him.
“Cut the crap. I’ll give you ten breaths of time to scram. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being merciless!”
The bandit leader was a man in his thirties. He was tall and muscular. He held a scimitar in his hand, and a murderous aura surged out. The minions around him began to shout.
Ye Feng stood in the distance and did not leave. He swept his gaze and discovered that the leader of the bandits was not weak. He was actually at the Xiantian realm.
“Father!”
A crisp voice came from inside a carriage. Then, a young girl around twenty walked down. Her appearance was not bad, and she was considered to be of high-grade beauty.
The skinny old man’s entire body shook as he hurriedly signaled for the girl to hurry back to the carriage.
“What a beautiful woman!”
The bandit leader’s eyes lit up as he stared fixedly at the girl who had suddenly appeared. She was precisely the daughter of the skinny old man.
“Damn old man, I’ve changed my mind. You people can scram. Bring your goods and scram for me. She’ll stay behind and be my wife!”
The bandit leader laughed loudly, and the subordinates laughed together, revealing their perverted gazes.
“Master, please let us go. The young woman is too young to be your wife. If you are willing, I will give all these goods to you!”
The skinny old man suddenly changed his mind. He planned to send all the goods out and save his daughter. Once the bandits snatched her away, the future could be imagined.
“Get lost!”
After all, the bandit leader was at the Xiantian realm, while the skinny old man was only at the Houtian ninth layer. Although he was considered to be quite strong in the Open Source Kingdom, when he encountered the Xiantian realm, he simply did not have the ability to retaliate and was kicked away by the bandit leader.
“Father!”
The skinny old man’s body flew out and spat out a mouthful of blood. He fell to the ground, and the young girl hurriedly came up to help him up.
As for the dozen or so guards, they were already scared silly. How could they pass through these formations? Moreover, the other party also had a Xiantian realm. Dozens of archers were unable to break out of the encirclement.
“Little bitch, obediently follow me up the mountain. I promise you that I will treat you well. I guarantee that you will enjoy the delicious food and drink the spicy food!”
The bandit leader walked over to the skinny old man and said to the young girl with a flirtatious smile.
“Scram! You villains! We’re just ordinary caravans! How dare we offend you? Not only are you trying to plunder us, you’re also trying to hurt us!”
The young girl was powerless, but her words were extremely fierce, and she was not afraid of the bandit leader at all.
“It’s hot, I like it!”
The bandit leader didn’t care at all and continued walking towards the father and daughter.
“Wan’er, hurry up and leave. Father, stop him!”
The skinny old man pulled out a large cigarette stick from his bosom, protected his daughter behind him, and intended to rush out.
“Damn old man, I advise you to give up resisting. If your daughter obediently follows me back to the mountain, this path will always be open to you in the future. Why not?”
Looking at the old man’s posture, the bandit leader looked down on him completely, and his terrifying Xiantian aura firmly suppressed the old man on the spot.
“Even if I die, I won’t let you touch my daughter!”
The skinny old man prepared to fight to the death, his eyes shining brightly.
“Big Brother Ye, let’s go over and help them. After all, they are helpful to us!”
Ya’er couldn’t bear to watch anymore. The three of them were standing in the distance, but these bandits didn’t notice.
“Let’s go!”
Ye Feng looked down on the battles between ordinary people. This kind of thing happened almost every day in the Southern Divine Continent. Even if Ye Feng wanted to take care of it, he could not do anything about it. Since he had encountered it, Ye Feng could not stand idly by. Moreover, this caravan had helped him before.
The three of them quickly arrived on the road to the Western Sunrise Mountain Range. In just a breath of time, Ye Feng and the others appeared in their line of sight.
“Big brother, there are a few more people here!”
A minion ran over and said to the bandit leader.
Just as the bandit leader was about to attack, he was suddenly interrupted by someone. He looked at Ye Feng and the others. When he saw Qi Ruomei, his eyes almost froze. His saliva unconsciously dripped down and he stared at Qi Ruomei in a very vulgar manner.
Being stared at so wretchedly, Qi Ruomei revealed an angry expression and was as cold as ice. She was prepared to teach him a lesson, but Ye Feng did not say anything and it was not good for her to act without authorization.
“All of you, stop right there. If you want to go through here, you have to get my permission!”
The bandit leader actually thought that Ye Feng and the others happened to pass by and also entered the Yangxi Mountain Range.
“Oh, could it be that your family bought this road? Why would they need your consent!”
Ye Feng smiled indifferently. There was not a trace of true energy fluctuation in his body. He was like a rookie who did not know how to cultivate. If he matched it with a fan, he would probably be a full-blown playboy.
“That’s right, this road was bought by our family. If you want to go there, it’s not impossible. Leave her behind and you can scram!”
The bandit leader pointed at Qi Ruomei and retreated with Ru Ru just now. If he wanted to leave the woman behind, the others could leave.
