Chapter 1066: Chapter 674: Enemy
“Since that’s the case, it’s about ti we left as well.” With Wu Dao gone, the Clan Leader also spoke to Liu Hun, but after finishing his sentence, the Clan Leader paused before continuing, “If you ever need our help, feel free to let know, this is my phone number.”
After speaking, the Clan Leader handed a piece of paper directly to Liu Hun. Liu Hun hesitated for a mont before accepting the paper.
Once this matter is settled, Liu Hun must return to Huaihai Province. He’s been away for far too long, and Liu Hun worried that if Huaihai Province was without him for too long, Liu Dehai would eventually discover sothing, and the results would be sothing Liu Hun didn’t want to see.
“Liu… Young Master Liu, I…” After the Clan Leader and others left, the Poison Queen hesitated, unable to stop herself from addressing Liu Hun hesitantly.
“You go back and take care of your own business first, I’ll personally co find you later; and rember what I said to you before.” Liu Hun nodded at the Poison Queen, his face showing a trace of calm.
Looking at Liu Hun’s calm face, the Poison Queen’s expression turned sowhat unsightly, she bit her lip, hesitated for a mont, yet decisively turned to leave.
Inside her now is the poisonous insect Liu Hun implanted in her, she can’t escape from Liu Hun’s grasp, unless she wants to die.
But in this world, if one can live well, who would choose to die?! And the Poison Queen was no exception.
In a short ti, everyone had left the gorge entirely. Liu Hun looked at Old Bai beside him and remarked, “This ti we’ve accomplished our goal, and once we return, your daughter will be saved.”
“Thank you, Liu… Young Master…” Old Bai hesitated for a mont before correcting and replying to Liu Hun.
The title given by Old Bai was understood clearly by both Liu Hun and Old Bai, indicating that Old Bai would henceforth follow Liu Hun.
And this was Liu Hun’s initial purpose, and this ti in seeking the Nine Nether Cold Ice for Old Bai, he almost died several tis. Receiving this kind of return was in no way excessive.
“Between us, it’s rely a fair trade. Once this is over, you’re free to do whatever you want.” Liu Hun directly gave Old Bai a promise.
Upon hearing Liu Hun’s words, Old Bai gratefully said, “Thank you, Young Master.”
“You shouldn’t be in a hurry to thank just yet. We have one more thing to deal with ahead, otherwise, we probably won’t be able to leave here today.” As Liu Hun spoke to Old Bai, his eyes narrowed slightly, scrutinizing the top of the gorge.
In the gorge, with steep and towering peaks, it was impossible to see clearly what was above, but looking at Liu Hun’s sowhat solemn expression, Old Bai couldn’t help but tense, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
“Boom…” A series of loud sounds erupted, Liu Hun and Old Bai watched the top of the gorge intently, but the height made it impossible to discern what was up there.
Monts later, when they saw large rocks dropping from the sky, Liu Hun and Old Bai’s expressions changed slightly.
Such large rocks, combined with such a height, seed intent on killing both of them, and crucially, these rocks only fell after everyone else had left, clearly prepared specifically for them.
“Dodge!” Liu Hun shouted softly, his body taking several backward steps to avoid a few rocks, but then more huge rocks ca tumbling down.
The gorge wasn’t very wide, making it difficult for the two to find cover.
Fortunately, the gorge’s entrance grew wider, so as they dodged and rushed towards the rocks in front, the pressure lessened.
About ten minutes later, the two finally reached the exit, looking back at the piles of rocks, Liu Hun and Old Bai both sighed with relief.
Just as they were catching their breath, bursts of bullets assaulted them once again.
The bullets were extrely dense, forcing Liu Hun and Old Bai to press their bodies against the cliffside to avoid the gunfire.
No matter how strong their prowess, their bodies could not withstand bullets; thus now, they could only wait for their opponents to run out of bullets before making their move.
“Old Bai, you’ve been on the run for quite a while. Isn’t it ti to co out? Maybe if I’m in a good mood, I might spare your life. So I advise you not to make futile struggles; it’s useless.” After those people emptied a magazine, a loud voice finally reached the ears of the two.
Hearing this, Old Bai’s expression changed slightly. Liu Hun looked at Old Bai, who was pressed tightly against the cliff on the opposite side, and his brows instinctively furrowed.
“Young Master, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I didn’t expect this group to chase us all the way here…” Old Bai, seemingly sensing Liu Hun’s gaze, said apologetically to Liu Hun.
At this mont, the exit was already blocked by these people, making it exceptionally difficult for them to get out.
“Who exactly are these people?” Liu Hun nodded to Old Bai, then asked in a deep voice.
“A month ago, I competed for a thousand-year Snow Lotus to treat my daughter’s illness, and had no choice but to steal their item. They’re a group of thieves, specializing in petty thefts…” Old Bai explained to Liu Hun with a tinge of bitterness.
Even Old Bai hadn’t expected these guys to chase them all the way here and just lie in wait for the two of them.
“I understand.” After listening to Old Bai’s explanation, Liu Hun didn’t say more.
“Young Master, how about I go out? At least that way, they won’t bother you; as for my daughter, I’ll leave her matter to you. In the next life, I’ll definitely repay this favor.” Old Bai was aware of their current situation, knowing they couldn’t go back since there was no way out anyway.
This group had been waiting here for him for so long, evidently prepared to capture him at any cost for revenge.
So if Old Bai went out, once they left, Liu Hun would naturally be safe as well.
“The reason you’ve ended up like this is all because of saving your daughter, and due to years of exhaustion, you’ve aged so quickly, having to tell her you’re her grandpa to avoid making her sad, right? Such a great father—if I leave you here now, won’t your daughter hate once she grows up and learns the truth?” Liu Hun spoke softly.
Hearing this, Old Bai stared dazedly at Liu Hun, not expecting that even at this mont, Liu Hun still had no intention of abandoning him.
“Do you know what I encountered in the desert before with Wu Dao? A Yellow Sand Python, which can’t be killed at all. At that ti, I could’ve just left, but I didn’t. Do you know why? Because Wu Dao is my friend; and now, it’s the sa for you.” Liu Hun continued speaking to Old Bai.
Hearing Liu Hun’s words, Old Bai was deeply moved; only in tis of adversity do you find who truly cares about you. Over the years, Old Bai had faced countless cold shoulders, sothing he had grown accustod to, but at this mont, he realized that his cold heart had ward a little.
“But Young Master, we don’t have much ti now, not to ntion my daughter doesn’t have long, just with your own matters, I can’t delay you any longer. Although you’ve said little on the road, I can sense this.” Despite feeling moved, Old Bai didn’t voice it and rather earnestly addressed Liu Hun.
“We’ve already been delayed so long, a little more doesn’t make much difference. Okay, leave this to to figure out, after all, you did call Young Master.” Liu Hun shook his head, chuckling lightly.
After speaking, Liu Hun scanned around. At the entrance of the canyon, even if there was an exit in that eerie place, it was too late now because the entrance was blocked with stones by those guys.
“Stay here and try to buy so ti, I’ll climb up this cliff to deal with the people above, then slip behind them to take them out. By then, the crisis will be naturally resolved.” After saying this, Liu Hun flipped his hand, grabbed a dagger, and began climbing the bare rock wall.
Old Bai initially wanted to say more, but seeing Liu Hun had already climbed several ters high, he was relieved.
“That Snow Lotus has already been used, so catching now is pointless.” While observing Liu Hun’s situation, Old Bai followed Liu Hun’s instructions and shouted to the group outside.
“Hahaha, Old Bai, you’re mistaken. That Snow Lotus is nothing to . I went through all the trouble to find you not because of it, but because of what you brought out. I just saw the others leave empty-handed, so maybe you have sothing like Nine Nether Cold Ice…” A hearty voice answered Old Bai directly.
Hearing this, Old Bai’s expression changed slightly, his eyes filled with killing intent deep down.
The Nine Nether Cold Ice was crucial to curing his daughter, so he couldn’t hand it over. Now soone was trying to steal it, which was tantamount to taking his life!
“I didn’t get that item at all, and do you think, with major powers not getting good treasures, I could? Old Bai desperately wanted to rush out and fight them, but thinking about Liu Hun who was still trying, Old Bai could only suppress his anger.
While Old Bai faced off those people outside, Liu Hun had already climbed halfway up.
