103: Chapter 103: Encounter with Fierce Bandits 103: Chapter 103: Encounter with Fierce Bandits The beautiful woman laughed, “Elder Fei Hou, have you forgotten?
Seven years ago, you saved ; my na is Chen Li.” With that, she pointed to the mountain path ahead.
“It was right there on that mountain path where you saved !”
After the beautiful woman’s reminder, Fei Hou rembered.
Seven years before, he had been on his way to hunt a Tenth Rank Ghost Eye Demon Spider in the Silver Moon Forest when he stumbled upon a group of black-clothed people attacking a master and servant.
He had conveniently saved them.
When he left, the young woman said her na was Chen Li.
But back then, Chen Li was only about fifteen or sixteen years old.
Seven years had passed, and her appearance changed sowhat, so Fei Hou didn’t recognize her imdiately.
“So it’s you,” Fei Hou suddenly realized.
“Yes, it’s , Elder Fei Hou!” Chen Li’s pretty face lit up with joy when she saw Fei Hou recalling the past.
eting Fei Hou again after seven years filled Chen Li with the feeling of reuniting with an old friend.
“Elder Fei Hou, where are you headed?” Chen Li inquired.
Fei Hou replied, “My Young Master and I are on our way to the Outer Kingdom City.” He then introduced Huang Xiaolong, saying, “This is my Young Master.”
“Young Master?!” Chen Li looked at Huang Xiaolong in surprise.
Back when Fei Hou had saved her, judging by his ability to defeat those black-clothed n, he must have been a Tenth Order Expert.
Now he was referring to this teenager who appeared to be around fifteen or sixteen as Young Master?
Huang Xiaolong noticed Chen Li’s expression and responded with a calm smile, “Just call Huang Xiaolong.”
Chen Li ca back to her senses and quickly said, “So it’s Young Master Huang.” She then looked at Fei Hou, “Elder Fei Hou, I am also heading to the Outer Kingdom City.
Since it’s on the way, why don’t we go together?”
Fei Hou instinctively looked towards Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong nodded.
They were already close to the Outer Kingdom City, and there were still ten days left until the wedding of Fei Hou’s grandson.
There was no need to rush, so traveling together was fine.
Seeing Huang Xiaolong nod, Fei Hou agreed.
Chen Li’s pretty face bead with happiness at Fei Hou’s consent.
However, just then, an elderly man, who appeared to be around sixty years old, stepped forward and said, “Miss, this might not be a good idea.
The origins of these two are unclear, and their encounter is too coincidental.”
Chen Li’s brow furrowed, “What do you an by unclear origins?
Elder Fei Hou is my lifesaver!”
The elderly man continued, “Miss, the human heart can be treacherous, we should still—”
“Enough, don’t say anymore,” Chen Li cut him off.
Seeing her reaction, the elderly man stopped speaking.
Chen Li, looking sowhat embarrassed, addressed Huang Xiaolong and Fei Hou, “Young Master Huang, Elder Fei Hou, this is my butler Liu Mu.
She is also concerned for my safety.
If her words offended, I hope Young Master Huang and Elder Fei Hou won’t take it to heart.”
“It’s fine,” Huang Xiaolong shook his head and gave Liu Mu a aningful look.
He felt there was more to Liu Mu’s repeated attempts to prevent him and Fei Hou from traveling with Chen Li.
Hence, Huang Xiaolong decided it was even more necessary to see what Liu Mu was truly up to.
And so, Huang Xiaolong and Fei Hou set off with Chen Li and her group of around a dozen people.
Huang Xiaolong and Fei Hou rode on red horses.
Red horses are the common ans of transportation in the Martial Soul World.
While red horses are indeed horses, they are much faster than ordinary horses.
A day passed, and as the night fell, Chen Li suggested resting for the night in the forest ahead.
Huang Xiaolong had no objections.
However, just as everyone started a campfire and was about to sit down to rest, suddenly, the ground on the mountain path ahead began to shake—a clear sign that a large group of people were rapidly approaching on their Mount Pets.
Chen Li and the others were startled and quickly stood up.
Before long, a group of people riding various Mount Pets and warhorses, all in black, appeared before them.
There were more than a hundred of them, and their montum was fierce; it seed they were coming for Huang Xiaolong and his companions.
Huang Xiaolong and Fei Hou exchanged glances and stood up.
The black-clothed people charged in and quickly dispersed, surrounding Huang Xiaolong and the others in a tight encirclent.
“What do you think you’re doing?” Chen Li’s pretty face was sowhat pale.
“What do we want to do?” A one-ard middle-aged man who seed to be the leader of the fierce bandits chuckled at Chen Li and then yelled, “Brothers, what do we want to do?”
The surrounding fierce bandits burst into laughter upon hearing this.
“We want to kill people!”
“We want to have our way with won even more!”
Over a hundred fierce bandits laughed loudly, their arrogance and pride tinged with the excitent and thrill of an impending slaughter.
“This is near Kang City, and the City Lord of Kang City is a good friend of my father.
If you dare!” Chen Li began, but before she could finish, the one-ard bandit leader laughed and said, “The City Lord of Tang City?
I’m so scared.” With that, he patted his chest, feigning a look of great fear, which drew even more laughter from the surrounding bandits.
Chen Li’s face turned a shade of purple with rage.
“Go; deal with the n, and take the won away!” the one-ard bandit leader commanded at that mont.
“Yes, Chief!”
A dozen fierce bandits, with knives in hand, advanced and slashed at Huang Xiaolong, Fei Hou, and Chen Li’s guards.
Saber Qi flashed abruptly, glinting brightly in the night light.
Chen Li’s guards scattered in a panic.
Observing the fierce bandits attacking him and the Sect Leader, Fei Hou let out a cold chuckle, waved his hands, and suddenly, a long sword appeared in his grasp.
The swordlight flashed by, and the attacking bandits scread as their heads were sent flying, their lower halves remaining stationary before they collapsed to the ground with a thud.
The sudden screams of the bandits startled everyone around them, causing all eyes to turn in their direction.
The previously arrogant and smug one-ard bandit leader’s smile froze, and his eyes narrowed.
“All of you back off!” he ordered, causing the other bandits to retreat.
The remaining bandits complied and withdrew.
“Who might you be?
This matter does not concern you, and I would advise you not to ddle in affairs that are none of your business,” the one-ard bandit leader moved forward on his horse, looking down on Fei Hou from a higher position, saying this, he cast a covert glance at Liu Mu standing beside Chen Li, his expression both questioning and puzzled.
Liu Mu subtly shook his head in response.
Their movents were covert, yet Huang Xiaolong caught them in his sight.
Without answering, Fei Hou suddenly shouted, “Get down from there!” As his voice fell, lightning flashed, instantly striking the one-ard bandit leader, who cried out in agony before tumbling off his warhorse.
“Chief!”
The surrounding bandits were shocked, quickly crowding around.
Struggling up from the ground, the one-ard bandit leader was covered in dust, his eyes glaring murderously at Fei Hou, filled with both shock and fury.
“Kill, kill this old dog for !” With a wave of his hands, he bellowed furiously.
He refused to believe that Fei Hou could stand against their hundred plus n alone!
Unless the other was an Innate Expert.
But he refused to believe his luck was that bad to encounter an Innate Expert.
The fierce bandits surged towards Fei Hou all at once.
Fei Hou, facing the onslaught of the fierce bandits, turned cold, and his whole body shone brightly as a nearly twenty-ters-long Galaxy appeared—it was indeed Fei Hou’s Martial Soul.
Having broken through to the Innate level, Fei Hou’s Galaxy Martial Soul, compared to before, not only grew in size but also in condensation, glittering with silver light to the extre.
