"No matter if they have any problems or not, we can’t stay here long."

Bai Ziyue said, his gaze sweeping towards the carriage in the middle. Vaguely visible, the woman in purple sat steadily inside, completely unmoved.

Without further comment, he quickly returned to the carriage.

On the other side, Zhang Zhen also began calling everyone to mount their horses and speed up their departure.

After traveling a certain distance, Zhang Zhen rode a horse and approached Bai Ziyue, saying, "Mr. Bai, not far ahead is the Langya Mountain Valley. It is a gorge that stretches more than ten miles.

Such places generally gather mountain bandits.

In the past, by relying on the name of our Four Seas Escort Agency, we could always gain some respect and pass through smoothly.

But this time, I don’t think it will be that easy..."

From the previous encounter, he naturally knew that the real target of these bandits was most likely the ’Miss Qing’ in the carriage in the middle.

Even though he also didn’t know who she was and who she had offended, the escort he took on must be completed, even if it means crawling...

More importantly, what she offered was indeed difficult for him to refuse.

And now vaguely guessing she might be a Cultivation Immortal Master, he dared not refuse even more.

So, he only hoped they could complete the escort quickly and return to East City County.

Bai Ziyue slightly turned sideways to the top of the carriage to look ahead, finding the road ahead was straight and wide enough for three carriages to go side by side.

But on both sides of the path, there were crisscrossing ridges and cliffs like wolf’s teeth. In such a place, as long as someone prepared bows and arrows or positioned rocks in advance, the people traveling on this road could suffer significant injury.

Bai Ziyue’s heart slightly tensed, and he quickly asked, "Is there another route we can take?"

"There is, but it means walking an extra thirty miles."

Zhang Zhen nodded, frowning, and said, "And it’s a mountain path, which carriages cannot pass through."

"What does Miss Qing say?" Bai Ziyue asked.

"She said she trusts Mr. Bai’s strength." Zhang Zhen replied.

Does this mean she doesn’t want to abandon the carriage?

Bai Ziyue thought silently. As he was about to speak, someone suddenly approached and said, "The mountain path is impassable. After the recent heavy rain, a large section of the mountain collapsed.

Our people might make it through, but the horses definitely won’t."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ziyue’s heart skipped a beat. It seemed like too much of a coincidence.

"Then fine, let’s take the main road directly."

Zhang Zhen was stunned for a moment, then said spiritedly, "Actually, even if there are really bandits in Langya Mountain Valley, it may be difficult for ordinary people, but for us martial artists, it’s not much.

Whether shooting arrows or throwing rocks, with our skills, we can dodge them smoothly.

The only concern is merely the strength of the bandits here.

But, as far as I know, the strongest bandit gang near Langya Mountain Valley is the Black Wind Village. The Great Village Chief’s name is unknown, but he’s nicknamed Black Tornado, with the strength of a third-class expert, similar to mine.

The Second Village Chief, Third Village Chief, and Fourth Village Chief are all in the Inner Power Realm, the others are unworthy of mention.

At least with Mr. Bai’s strength, we can easily crush them."

Bai Ziyue pondered for a moment and then nodded, saying, "Okay, but we need to move quickly and try to rush through the valley in the shortest time possible. If necessary, we may abandon the carriages and horses."

"Agreed!"

Zhang Zhen responded and began to give orders.

Soon, more than ten people each mounted their horses and surrounded the carriages on both sides.

Immediately, they lashed their whips.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The strong horses accelerated suddenly, rushing into Langya Mountain Valley.

...

Langya Mountain Valley connected two counties, Celestial Water County and East City County. Although not a must-pass route, it was also a significant passage.

The bandits that roamed year-round were not few.

The Black Wind Village was the strongest among them.

At the end of Langya Mountain Valley, in a steep area, it was as silent as death. But in a slightly concave area, nearly a hundred bandits gathered together, a dense dark mass.

"Old Chang and the others are back."

Suddenly, a voice came out, and then a group of more than ten people approached swiftly, some of them still bearing wounds.

"Old Chang, how did it go?" freewёbnoνel-com

A big man, his face darkened by the sun and full of stubble, came up and asked.

"Reporting to the Village Chief, the strength of these people is not weak. Among them, there should be three in the Inner Power Realm, the others possessing Inner Cultivation Realm strength.

We sent out twenty people this time, but only ten returned, the others all killed.

Additionally, I noticed that they have a total of three carriages. In one, there is a woman vaguely seen in purple clothing, who should be our target.

As for the other two, one contained some animal skins, with a few martial artists in the Inner Power Realm sitting on this carriage.

The other had a young man, accompanied by a big dog, which should be an exotic beast. This person likely has a higher status, but considering his age, his strength shouldn’t be high, probably at most in the Inner Cultivation Realm, nothing to worry about."

Old Chang cupped his hands slightly as he reported.

"Village Chief, what’s the identity of that woman, that makes us mobilize the whole Black Wind Village?

And, those on the opposite hill, they all carry bows and arrows. Could they be soldiers?"

A figure with an imposing aura, whose every move carried a special grace, suddenly spoke, clearly another powerhouse in the Inner Power Realm.

"Naturally, not an ordinary person. It is said to be a Cultivation Immortal Master.

But there’s no need for you to be overly concerned. According to the information I received, she is heavily injured and can’t exhibit much strength.

Moreover, this matter comes from Qilian Mountain. Do you think I dare not comply?

Besides, the reward from Qilian Mountain is substantial, enough for all our brothers to eat and drink well for half a year."

The Great Village Chief patted the shoulder of the speaker and said.

"Orders from Qilian Mountain?"

The man widened his eyes and nodded solemnly.

He knew that Qilian Mountain was one of the top Greenwood Mountains in the Wuu Kingdom, rumored to have an Innate realm powerhouse in charge.

Their Black Wind Village, in comparison, was like an ant that could be crushed easily by Qilian Mountain.

With the strength of their Village Chief, Black Tornado, they had no courage to refuse Qilian Mountain’s demands.

"As for the others, they’re not government troops, likely bandits like us.

However, they have come from the plain area."

Subsequently, the Great Village Chief Black Tornado continued.

"The plain area? The Eighteen Eagle Kings?"

Old Chang, who was nearby, showed a look of shock and said, "That’s a group of fierce people. There are only eighteen of them, but each one is capable of shooting an eagle with a bow from eight hundred meters away.

Moreover, it’s said that all eighteen of them have Inner Power Realm strength, and the Celestial Eagle King among them has reached the level of a second-class expert.

I just checked, and they also have exactly eighteen people, not one more or less. Doesn’t that mean they came out in full force?"

Nodding solemnly, the Great Village Chief Black Tornado said, "This time, they are the main force. We are just assisting, so it should be relatively easy for us."

"Report!"

At this moment, a slender figure quickly approached.

"Speak!"

"The carriage has entered. It will pass by our location in less than half an incense stick’s time."

"Good, tell the brothers to get ready.

Also, signal the others to be alert."

Black Tornado said excitedly, and everyone immediately started preparing.

...

The galloping horses echoed thunderously through the valley.

Vigilant, Bai Ziyue did not sit comfortably inside the carriage but sat cross-legged on top of it, occasionally scanning the mountain peaks on either side.

"Another three miles and we’ll burst out of the valley. It seems our earlier worries were unfounded. That Black Wind Village wouldn’t dare attack us..."

A member of the Escort Agency sighed in relief and said with a hint of pride.

"Be careful! It’s an ambush!"

Bai Ziyue’s sharp eyes spotted shadows moving atop two distant peaks.

"Increase speed and pass through quickly."

Zhang Zhen shouted. Though he hadn’t seen the bandits yet, he chose to trust instinctively.

Everyone tensed up and yanked the reins, urging the already fast horses to go even faster.

Bai Ziyue’s eyes grew profound, and his breathing became exceptionally steady.

He thought he would be nervous, but he wasn’t. Instead, he felt his qi and blood rising from calm, growing more turbulent, and then boiling like hot blood.

No intention to hide it.

A dense wave of qi and blood swirled up like smoke, releasing the overwhelming aura of a strong person, truly grand and magnificent.

Refreshing!

Compared to being in Qinghe Town and Wujiang County, always hiding behind a facade, being cautious despite his overwhelming strength, and not daring to reveal himself... At this moment, he felt purely refreshed.

Perhaps this is the true pursuit of a martial artist, the hot-blooded Jianghu...

"Kill!"

Bai Ziyue let out a roar, filling him with heroic vigor.

He suddenly leaped off the horse, his inner strength surging, and performed the Lightweight Skill Seven Stars Chasing the Moon, swiftly charging towards the mountain top.

"Mr. Bai..."

Zhang Zhen was shocked.

"Don’t worry, I’ll carve my way through."

A calm voice echoed, but Bai Ziyue’s figure had already shot out, moving at a speed far surpassing that of a racing horse.

"Hmm? Seeking death!"

On the rock, eighteen figures, each with eyes as sharp as eagles, saw this. The leader’s face showed a cold smile.

He casually drew an arrow, placed it on the bowstring, and pulled the hard bow made from the horn of the top-level exotic beast, the Golden Wild Bull, into a full moon shape in an instant.

Twang!

The arrow whizzed out at an extreme speed.
