Chapter 12 A Cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts Is ComingThis ma.s.sive flock of Evil Beasts was more serious than they thought. A sizable group of Evil Beasts of unknown level rushed out from the deep forest. Although these people were not weak in power, they did not expect to cope with the crazy Evil Beasts. For a while, they either ran to the tree or flew to the sky. But there still were those who had been overwhelmed by the cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts before they had time to respond. They all ran for their lives without any time to help others.
Fortunately, the trees here were tall and durable enough for them to survive. Ronghua looked at those aristocratic men. As expected, each of them was pale and petrified. “I am afraid that such a terrible scene will not be seen on their training ground!” thought Ronghua.
“Don"t even think about it. This is the case!” thought Ronghua. She looked up, only to see that the Evil Beasts fled fast. If there had been no major disasters, then it would have been the mysterious territory that might have something wrong.
“At this time, they might give up, wouldn"t they?” Ronghua thought.
Ronghua looked at those people with no action. Those who were unable to protect themselves died at the feet of the Evil Beasts. She was unwilling to rescue them for their indifference and selfishness.
Ronghua"s hand had already raised. Suddenly, she heard a sound of zither, remote but with sufficient power, by which the dying civilians were rescued.
Ronghua followed the sound of the zither and saw that it was the man who had stopped Zhong Bancheng earlier. It seemed that his name was Xia Pumo.
“This person is not bad. If he can offer me his services, it will be a great help.” thought Ronghua. She turned to the side and asked, “Who is that Xia Pumo?”
Shenyuan answered, “Your Grace, he is a person of high status in an imperial clan of the Race of Human.”
Ronghua asked, “Are there any stories?”
Shenyuan knew that the princess was going to recruit him. He answered, “Yes, but It"s a long story.”
Ronghua said, “Get to the point!”
Shenyuan answered, “Yes! Xia Pumo is the son of the leader of the imperial clan Qin, and he has an older brother, named Xia Puyang, who is known by the world as Childe Xuanji. It"s about five years ago that the major imperial clans joined together, killing a man named Murong Zhe. Afterward, Xia Pumo looked for spiritualism in private to call back Murong Zhe to lives. However, what he did was known by others. His father didn"t want to give him up, so he was dispatched here, and his status suddenly fell.”
Ronghua clenched her right hand into a fist and reached her mouth and said, “Oh, he likes that Murong Zhe, right?”
Shenyuan answered, “Yes, Your Grace.”
After listening so much, Ronghua realized that it was just that Xia Pumo liked Murong Zhe, but Murong Zhe died. Xia Pumo wanted to save him, but what he did was discovered by others, so he was then dispatched here.
“Your Grace, can this person be recruited?” Shenyuan asked carefully.
Ronghua looked back casually and said, “Guess?”
Shenyuan said, “I dare not.”
Ronghua supported her chin with her right hand and looked over there. She said to Shenyuan, “He has a broken leg and can"t stand for a long time. Had he been beaten by his father?”
Shenyuan answered, “No, Your Grace. It"s his brother!”
Ronghua was surprised and said, “It was his brother who beat him! How could he do that!”
Shenyuan answered, “Your Grace, Xia Pumo is the illegitimate son of the leader of imperial clan Qin.”
Ronghua smiled, and she was particularly good-looking. She said, “A man has weaknesses, not to mention he has so many weaknesses?”
Shenyuan said, “For so many years he has not let his enemies find weaknesses to deal with him. This time he was kicked out only because of Murong Zhe!”
The cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts was almost going away. People of imperial clans over there, instead of going on their way, directly followed the footprints left by the cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts, which was a really good way.
It was okay to recruit Xia Pumo, but wondering whether he would agree or not, Ronghua still had to confirm. No one was willing to take Xia Pumo to fly for his current situation except Ronghua. Ronghua found a chance and flew toward him. Those inferior people were surprised to see Ronghua flying in the sky, and said, “This… this woman, her power… is not weak!” What they did not expect was that Ronghua was so powerful. However, if there were not a cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts, it was estimated that they might not know there was a mighty man among them until their death. “What is the cultivation of this woman? She can fly in the air. Her cultivation must be above the king level. Who is she?” thought these people.
Here Xia Pumo was struggling to resist the cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts. The tree he climbed was not high. Even if it had been a tall tree, in that situation, he could not have gone up, either. Just as his spiritual power was exhausted, an Evil Beast suddenly bypa.s.sed him and escaped. He frowned slightly, and his rapid breath slowly calmed down. He felt that someone behind him threw the zither directly to him. Ronghua stretched out her hand, leading the zither to the Evil Beast next to him. The Evil Beast, intending to dash over him, cried out in pain, but it seemed to feel something terrible and immediately left unwillingly.
Xia Pumo was already in a state of mental tension, thinking that the Evil Beast was going to rush over, and he was ready to struggle desperately, but it left. Despite the fact that it was strange, he was still relaxed.
Turning to look at Ronghua again, he couldn"t help but panic when he saw that she was wearing a black robe.
“Who are you.” He asked.
Ronghua slowly approached him and said, “You are injured. Let me have a look!”
Xia Pumo saw her coming and wanted to retreat, but only found that he couldn"t move at all. He suddenly understood and cried, “What are you doing?”
He knew that this person should have another purpose. Otherwise, she would kill himself immediately. How could he ask this sentence! However, we should always be aware of protecting ourselves rather than hurting others. “Do you have any questions?” He asked.
Ronghua stood next to him and looked straight at the man. He was a good-looking man, but the maturity on his face showed what he had suffered.
Ronghua smiled and said, “I know you are injured, and I"m close to you, so I come from that tree to help you.” Then she pointed her finger to that tree. Xia Pumo looked along the direction of her finger. Suddenly his face turned green and said, “That tree? Are you sure?”
“Coming from that tree! If she hasn"t used any magic weapon to fly over, then she can only fly in the air. She looks very young. Has she got such high cultivation?” Xiu Pumo thought in this way.
Xia Pumo calmed down and said, “Don"t talk nonsense. How high is the cultivation that can support you to fly from there to here?”
Ronghua looked at him and knew that he would not believe her one-sided story.
“How about I take you away?” Ronghua suggested. She directly dragged Xia Pumo away as soon as she finished the words.
“Take me away?” Xia Pumo thought. Before he could react, he was dragged away by Ronghua.
The people of the imperial clans nearby had already seen Ronghua fly to Xia Pumo. They were all disdainful of her because they thought she came from the evil sect, and she wouldn"t have any friends.
Zhong Bancheng was in wrath just now. He was about to burn the Bloodvine with fire. Meanwhile, the cl.u.s.ter of Evil Beasts came. He hurriedly summoned the Flying Beast and flew to the air. Then he turned around and saw his dying younger sister. It turned out that the Bloodvine had been twining around her, and her blood was almost sucked up by it. He quickly burned the Bloodvine with fire and fed more than half of the pills to his sister to save her, for which they lost most of their support. How to break into that mysterious territory? It"s really unfortunate to meet Xia Pumo every time.
When he saw someone flying with Xia Pumo, he became even angrier. He threw a sword shadow directly to Ronghua.
Ronghua turned around and saw what Zhong Bancheng had done. She was just about to take out the ripple map. However, something suddenly came upon her, so she immediately dismissed the idea. She looked at Xia Pumo"s zither and said, “Lend me your zither.”
After she finished speaking, she directly grabbed the zither. Her index finger hooked a few strings. She twisted them, and wrapped them in her hand, and pulled them hard, then let go of the attack on Zhong Bancheng. She directly broke his sword shadow. The people around them saw this battle and knew it was inevitable. One by one, they hid far away and silently watched them fight.
“What do you want to do?” Ronghua asked in a cold voice. If she hadn"t reacted quickly, Xia Pumo would have been hit and dropped directly.
Zhong Bancheng found that he couldn"t make it, then he sneered and said, “Don"t you know what I want to do?”
