Whoosh!
A cold and harsh aura suddenly came from the side, and Chu Liuyue’s gaze turned cold slightly!
Qiang Wanzhou had already raised his sword.
Buzz!
It was near her, and Chu Liuyue could even hear the sound of the arrow trembling.
The loose hair in front of Qiang Wanzhou’s forehead moved slightly due to the strong aura.
A piercing pain came from her brows, but the Cloud-Sky Copper Sword was right in front.
If that arrow had moved another inch forward, he would’ve slashed it apart. But at this moment, that arrow stopped three steps away from the duo.
Chu Liuyue could even see the ripple that was formed in the air. It was as if a stone was thrown into a lake, causing lots of ripples to appear.
This was a long, black arrow made from exquisite metal. Its workmanship was unique, its lines were smooth, and it was as sharp as ever.
Compared to the previous rough wooden arrow, they were worlds apart. This arrow also contained genuine murderous intent.
Chu Liuyue looked at the source of the arrow and squinted her eyes. “Since this has already happened, why don’t you just show yourself? There isn’t any meaning to just hide around!”
After she said this, the entire forest was silent.
Qiang Wanzhou still held the sword tightly and very alertly.
Mu Hongyu and Ye Ranran were both nervous as they looked over to that area in unison.
After a moment, a burly man walked over. He was born with thick brows and big eyes, and he was wearing a rough sack shirt. He had copper-like skin, and coupled with his firm muscles, he looked extremely strong.
Chu Liuyue was shocked. I didn’t even see the figure of such a muscular and strong man, and I didn’t even hear him moving. If it weren’t because I detected his aura, I wouldn’t have known that such a person was here all along and following us. It shows just how strong this man’s capabilities are.
Chu Liuyue had just broken through and become a stage-five warrior, so she couldn’t find out what the other party’s true cultivation level was. But from his surrounding aura… It seemed like he was at least an intermediate stage-seven warrior.
He might even be a peak stage-seven warrior!
The burly man held a bow in his hand and carried a container of arrows on his back. It proved that he was indeed the one who took action previously.
The weird thing was that he had another black hammer around his waist. It was completely dark, and a silver pattern seemed to be carved on the bottom of it.
However, Chu Liuyue couldn’t tell what exactly it was from this side.
Detecting the incoming person’s formidable abilities, Mu Hongyu and Ye Ranran became even more nervous. This person… If we really fight with him, the few of us might not be his match even when we join hands!
Chu Liuyue also noticed this, so she patted Qiang Wanzhou’s shoulders. “Little Zhou, move back.”
Qiang Wanzhou didn’t move, and the cold intent on the Cloud-Sky Copper Sword glistened.
His fighting intent was overwhelming. With this formation, he seemed to have already decided to put his entire life down.
Chu Liuyue was caught between laughter and tears. “Little Zhou, let’s not fight with him.”
If we did, we’d be the ones at a loss. What for? Chu Liuyue had always been very sensible. If she could win against somebody, she would fight. But if she couldn’t, she would run away.
The point was that she wasn’t that confident of successfully escaping from this man with the rest of them. So… it was pretty good if they just sat down and talked!
Qiang Wanzhou finally took half a step back, but he was still very guarded as he looked at the man opposite him alertly.
That man didn’t seem to care as he laughed out loud. “You really know how to go with the flow.”
He could already tell that this young woman in red was the center of the group.
Chu Liuyue also smiled. “I’m Chu Liuyue. May I know your name?”
The burly man saw that Chu Liuyue was very decisive, and he decided to be swift in answering as well. “Lei Laosi!”
Lei Laosi? That doesn’t sound like a name, but more of a nickname. However, Chu Liuyue wouldn’t dig deep into this.
Lei Laosi raised his hand, and a thick layer of calluses appeared on his fan-like palm.
His fingers moved slightly, and the black arrow floating in front of Chu Liuyue and Qiang Wanzhou quickly returned. He then caught the arrow with one hand and threw it back into the arrow container.
“You all look quite young, and you are children from wealthy families, right? Why did you suddenly come here?” Lei Laosi chuckled, crossed his arms, and leaned against a thick trunk by the side. “This isn’t a fun place!”
Chu Liuyue could tell that he didn’t mean harm, so she felt slightly appeased. If he really wanted to kill us, he wouldn’t wait until now.
Chu Liuyue thought for a moment and said, “Honestly speaking, we followed the Third Princess here…”
“Which Third Princess are you talking about?!”
Chu Liuyue had just finished her words halfway when she saw that Lei Laosi’s expression changed as harshness flashed in his eyes.
It seems like this Lei Laosi knows Shangguan Wan? Chu Liuyue hesitated for a moment, but she still said, “Isn’t there only one Third Princess in the Tianling Dynasty?”
The moment she said that, Lei Laosi’s expression had completely darkened as he took out another long arrow.
He placed it on the bow and pulled it back—the cold and sharp arrowhead was pointed at Chu Liuyue.
“So you’re her people!” Unconcealable and intense murderous intent was found on Lei Laosi’s face. “Since this is so, you all deserve to die!”
The sound of the arrow being pulled back was heard, and it grappled one’s heart.
Detecting the danger, Qiang Wanzhou raised his sword.
Peacock-blue fire suddenly rose up.
Lei Laosi glanced from the corner of his eyes, squinted, and snorted. “Are you worthy of that sword?”
Then, he was about to release the arrow.
Chu Liuyue immediately said, “We’re not Shangguan Wan’s people!”
Hearing that name, Lei Laosi’s eyelids twitched slightly. Then, he snorted. “You previously said that you followed her here. Why aren’t you her people now? You’re full of lies!”
Chu Liuyue raised her hand, pressed Qiang Wanzhou’s wrist, and forcefully pressed his sword down. Then, she stepped forward with a calm face as she carefully said, “We did come with her, but it doesn’t represent that we’re her people. In actual fact, she brought a total of more than 1,000 people over.”
Lei Laosi looked slightly shocked. “What? Why did she bring so many people here?!”
Chu Liuyue quickly explained the situation briefly. “…That’s why so many people came together this time, but we were separated from them not long earlier and came here. As for the rest… We also don’t know where they are.”
After hearing this, Lei Laosi’s expression gradually became warmer. “You said that you’re from Chong Xu Cabinet?”
Chu Liuyue slightly nodded and glanced at Mu Hongyu. “She’s from Dragon Teeth Mountain, but we’re friends.”
“Dragon Teeth Mountain… Hmph!” Lei Laosi coldly snorted, but the murderous intent in his eyes had already disappeared.
Chu Liuyue heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. It seems like I guessed correctly. This Lei Laosi indeed doesn’t have any bad intentions toward people from Chong Xu Cabinet and Dragon Teeth Mountain.
“I’ll give Chong Xu Cabinet’s Cabinet Master face and let you off! Hurry up and leave!” Lei Laosi waved his hands in frustration.
Chu Liuyue glanced at the rainbow barrier beside her and did not move. I’m already here, so how can I leave?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
