At the same time, on the road less than three miles away from Dongsheng Town.
Lin Rong, who was exhausted, saw that Dongsheng Town was very close in front of him, and there were also a few businessmen around him. It seemed that everything was going as expected, and he was only one step away. Escape potential dangers and reach your destination. But the lurking sense of crisis in Lin Rong's heart showed no sign of diminishing. On the contrary, as he got closer to Dongsheng Town, the uneasiness in his heart became more obvious.
According to common sense, there is no chance of him being noticed or targeted by being so inconspicuous among the crowd. As a messenger for decades, he has never heard of anyone daring to walk in the middle of the avenue near Dongsheng Town. Robbery. However, the sudden appearance of several people blocking his way always made him uneasy, as if he was unconsciously aware of the signs of impending disaster today. Therefore, Lin Rong couldn't help but continue to quicken his pace. He knew that he would be truly safe only if he truly set foot on the territory under the jurisdiction of Dongsheng Town. With the relationships he had managed in Dongsheng Town over the years, the person who was secretly following him would definitely be wary. , Never dare to attack yourself in broad daylight.
But just as he was thoughtful, the gradually colder temperature quickly caught Lin Rong's attention. At this time, the latter was shocked to find that the figures walking around him seemed to gradually become blurred in the dimming light, and the original direction of his feet seemed to be separated from the previously compacted dirt road for an instant. As soon as he stepped down, he suddenly stepped into a bush. Such a sudden change made Lin Rong's heart sink. He had accidentally fallen into a trap in a moment of trance, and even now he still couldn't understand what kind of method the other party used.
"Haha, if I remember correctly, you are the boy Lin Rong from Donglin Village, long time no see!" A deep voice came from directly in front, and the slightly hazy environment around Lin Rong began to become clear again. When he got up, he realized that he seemed to be in an open space in a jungle about half a mile away from the avenue. The other party seemed to have used some unknown method to teleport him here.
When the figure walking slowly in front of him revealed his true appearance, the fear in Lin Rong's eyes gradually turned into surprise, and then a bit of panic. Needless to say, the person walking toward him without any cover-up at this time was naturally Qian Biao from the Longsheng Caravan. Lin Rong had many guesses about the identity of this secret person, but most of his thoughts were about the people he had met in the past few years. Some of the people he offended during his travels between the two places never thought that Gan Biao would be so bold as to attack the villagers for a hefty commission. But when the other party revealed his true face in Lushan, Lin Rong, who was thoughtful, immediately realized that the other party dared to face him so blatantly, and most likely had no intention of leaving him alive.
After analyzing this, Lin Rong quickly concealed the uneasiness on his face. He knew that the more dangerous the situation, the more he needed to calm down. The only good thing at this time is that the other party's method of teleportation does not seem to be too outrageous, and he can still clearly see Dongsheng Town, which is very close at hand. This distance of just over a thousand meters can be crossed in less than a few minutes. All he has to do now is to find the right opportunity.
"So it's Team Leader Qian. What's your business here? Why did you bring an unarmed person like me here? I'd like to ask Team Leader Qian to explain." Even though he knows that the cultivation level of the person in front of him is far beyond his own. It could be compared, but the accusation and anger in Lin Rong's tone were still not concealed at all.
"Haha, you are so smart. Now that you see me here, do you still know the purpose of me coming to you?" Qian Biao asked with a cold scoff.
"Don't talk nonsense, you are not qualified to speak to me in such a tone with your mere physical training level. I could have directly killed you here, and there would be no chance of being discovered; however, Today I will be merciful and give you a chance to survive - I know that your father has made a lot of money from the inn he opened in the town, and you have some contacts with Tianbao Pavilion in Dongsheng Town. How can you not make people jealous with such wealth?"
"Now that you are surrendering and going to stay elsewhere for a few days with me, your father will probably be very anxious after receiving the news that your whereabouts are unknown, and he will definitely make up his mind to pay a large commission to find our Chamber of Commerce to find your whereabouts. As for the money that the village entrusted me to help subdue the sea beast, a lot of it will also fall into my pocket. When everything is over, maybe I can be merciful and let you little guy go." Qian Biao said.
"Hahaha! Do you think I will believe the lies of a shameless person like you?" Lin Rong laughed angrily, "Do you really think I can't see it? The reason why you left me alive is because you asked my father for it. In addition to paying more, he also wants to use my hand to find a way to establish a relationship with Tianbao Pavilion, and maybe he hopes to squeeze more benefits from me!"
"Let me tell you, this is wishful thinking! Don't tell me that I will never succumb to a despicable person like you. Even my father will definitely not give you money for nothing as you wish! In fact, the two of us have already I suspect the real purpose of the people who just blocked the road. If my father returns safely, he will definitely ask someone to investigate the real reason. Your tricks will be exposed sooner or later. I don’t believe you have the guts to kill all the people in our village to silence you! "
"Humph, what a sharp-tongued boy!" The dry face once again returned to its usual indifference and sinisterness, "At this juncture, you still can't tell who is the swordsman and who is the fish? Since you are toasting and not eating, If you're forced to drink wine as a penalty, then I don't have the intention to waste it with you, a wretch like you. I'll give you one last chance. Just surrender and follow me. Maybe I can spare you and your father's lives!"
"Delusion!"
"Then there's nothing more to say, just die!" Qian Biao was obviously a man of his word. After losing the patience to continue chatting with the other party, he directly attacked Lin Rong who had not yet reacted.
Although the latter had been wary of Qian Biao's every move, he did not expect that the other party would directly attack him without any intention of bargaining. At this time, Lin Rong did not hesitate at all, and directly took out a broken stone shell that was only as big as the palm of his hand and looked like a tortoise shell, and blocked it directly between the two people under the urging of his spiritual power. He knew very well that with his conventional methods, there was no way he could receive a blow from a self-forged bone realm expert. This stone shell was Lin Rong's most powerful defensive treasure. Now at the critical moment of life and death, he had to sacrifice it to buy time for his escape.
"You dare to show off your trivial skills to embarrass yourself?" Although Qian Biao, who attacked with bare hands, was far from using all his strength, he still attacked Lin Rong with a fatal blow; the former seemed not to take the stone shell thrown by Lin Rong into consideration at all. , the palm wind surged and struck directly towards the center of the stone shell where the light was blooming.
At the center of the contact point, a huge shock wave immediately broke dozens of surrounding trees as thick as one person, and the terrible aftermath knocked Lin Rong to the ground, who took the opportunity to escape more than ten meters away. At the same time, Qian Biao, who was in the center of the impact point, was also forced back several steps by this huge force. Apparently, the latter did not expect that the power of the stone shell could actually resist his own palm. But the fierceness in his eyes was even more severe.
"It's a bit interesting to have a treasure with a rebound effect... I really don't know where a kid in the body refining realm got such a treasure. I can't imagine how powerful it was in its complete form to destroy it like this. It's a pity that your real cultivation level is too weak, this will only allow you to live a few more seconds!"
As Qian Biao said, this artifact was enough to withstand Qian Biao's palm. Although there were still no new cracks, it soon returned to its original dim appearance due to the loss of its user's spiritual power. , fell aside like an ordinary tortoise shell.
Lin Rong, who struggled to stand up not far away, was just about to take steps to continue running for his life, but he suddenly realized that the terrifying figure was already in front of him again, still playing with the stone shell he had just reluctantly sacrificed in his hand.
"I will accept this gift. In return...I will give you a happy day today, so you can go on your way with peace of mind!"
At this critical moment, just as Lin Rong looked desperately at the withered arm slowly stretched out in front of him and waving towards his face, two cold rays of light suddenly flashed out of thin air from the dark jungle on the side, heading straight towards He struck at the center of the palm of the approaching Qian Biao. The latter also sensed that the visitor was unkind, and suddenly directed the brown spiritual power surging in his palm towards the two plum blossom-shaped darts.
Then, before the two plum blossom darts hit the ground, Qian Biao's brows suddenly tightened. The soul consciousness that had been hastily covering the surrounding area was instantly mobilized and gathered in the dark jungle at the rear left. At this time, the second wave of offensive that secretly struck was launched from here. A faint blue dagger carrying sharp spiritual power struck directly at the back of Qian Biao's chest from the locked position.
Of course, the latter would not give any chance to the sneak attack so easily. At this time, Gan Biao did not dodge to a safe area as usual, but turned around at an incredible speed when the sword edge was approaching. , then use your palm fingers to gently flick the incoming blade aside. In the end, the cold blade only scratched a mark on Qian Biao's cuffs and failed to even shake the latter's figure.
