Chapter 3863: Cover
F***
Ling Han hurriedly descended. After storing away the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower, he activated Imminent Skyline and searched for a place to dodge.
However, this was a desert, so where could he hide?
Though his speed was fast, surpa.s.sing all Cauldron Forging Tiers, and could even match the early stage of the Core Formation Tier, those three vultures were in the middle stage of the Core Formation Tier or even the late stage of the Core Formation Tier, so their speed was faster than his, though not by much.
The distance between the two sides was slowly closing in.
Ling Han frowned slightly. Could it be that he could only use the Heavenly Dao Flames?
Right at this moment, his eyes suddenly lit up.
In the distance, a valley appeared.
Very good, Ling Han quickened his pace, and raced towards that valley.
After a few leaps and landings, he was already close to the valley, yet shockingly discovered that there was presently a group of seven people walking out of the valley.
When they saw Ling Han, the seven of them were stunned. Then, they also saw those three vultures, and all of them cursed. They turned around and ran into the valley.
Ling Han followed them into the valley, and immediately discovered that the expressions of those seven people were extremely unfriendly.
What, did I offend you guys?
However, everyone’s attention was now focused on the three vultures outside. What surprised Ling Han was that these three vultures seemed to be very wary of the valley. They only circled above the valley, and not a single one flew down.
After a long time, the three vultures flapped their wings and left, as if they had given up on hunting.
“Brat, you’ve wasted so much of our time. How are you going to compensate us?” a man in green said.
Ling Han spread his hands and said, “Adventuring in ancient sites together is a very common thing, right? Fine, I can apologize to all of you.”
“Apologize?” The man in green humphed, “What is the use of an apology? Can it exchange for the time that we have wasted?”
Tsk, did he have to be so overbearing?
Ling Han cracked his knuckles as he clenched his fists. By the looks of it, someone was asking for a beating.
“What, you want to fight?” The man in green sneered. There were seven of them, and they were all at the cultivation level of the Cauldron Forging Tier. The strongest person was at Four Cauldrons, and his abilities were enough to rank in the top 1000 of the Galaxy Network. Was there any need for him to fear Ling Han?
He was only a Cauldron Forging Tier.
Ling Han merely cracked a smile. It seemed like these seven people were quite familiar with this place, so it was a good opportunity for him to make some queries.
“How dare you!”
“Stop!”
The man in green was just about to rush forwards with his fists out, but a loud shout suddenly rang out, causing him to involuntarily stop.
At first, he had thought that this was a call from a companion, because there were only eight people in the valley. Since Ling Han did not speak, it must be a companion. However, when he turned his head, he was surprised, because an unfamiliar man had just entered into the valley. It was that man who had spoken up to stop him.
F***, the man in green was instantly displeased. Who do you think you are?
He sized him up. This man was also a Cauldron Forging Tier cultivator, and there was a scar on his face that extended from his left eye to the right corner of his mouth, making him look extremely malevolent.
“Yi, could it be that you are Li Zisuan?” The man in green was just about to flip out, when he saw a companion rush out, cupping his hands in respect towards the scarred man.
“That’s right,” the scar-faced man said proudly.
Li Zisuan? Who was he?
The man in green did not dare to be rash, because that companion was the only Four Cauldrons among them, and was also the strongest elite. Even he was so polite, so this scar- faced man should be very powerful.
When the Four Cauldrons cultivator saw the puzzled expressions on his companions’ faces, he hurriedly said, “You may not have heard of Brother Li’s name, but Lu Qi knows, right?”
Of course, Lu Qi was ranked 19th on the Galaxy Network, and he was ranked in the top five of the North Heavenly Realm. He was practically their idol.
The Four Cauldrons cultivator nodded, and said, “Brother Li had once exchanged blows with Lu Qi, and only after exchanging five hundred moves, was he no match, and this scar was left behind at that time. Thus, this is definitely not a humiliation, but rather a symbol of honour and courage.”
A look of admiration appeared on the faces of the man in green and the others. This was too awesome. He had only been defeated after exchanging 500 blows with Lu Qi, and he had even survived. This was practically inconceivably powerful.
Pu, Ling Han couldn’t help but splutter in laughter. He had never thought that he would encounter Li Zisuan so soon. What was even more unexpected was that there was actually a market for Li Zichuan’s lies.
“What are you laughing at!” The man in green immediately shouted at Ling Han.
Without waiting for Ling Han to speak, Li Zisuan coughed, and said proudly, “You dare to be rude to my friend?”
“This is actually Brother Li’s friend?” the Four Cauldrons cultivator asked in surprise.
“Of course!” Li Zisuan said proudly, but he was a little anxious internally. That was because
he was actually not worthy of being a.s.sociated with Ling Han, and feared that Ling Han would immediately act up.
However, Ling Han didn’t say anything, which was equivalent to tacit agreement.
He was actually very curious about how far this Li Zisuan could pretend.
“Since he’s Brother Li’s friend, then we’re all a family!” The Four Cauldrons on the other side chuckled, then nodded at the man in green. “Yue Zhi, apologize to this friend.”
The man in green hurriedly clasped his hands in Ling Han’s direction, saying, “Please don’t take my previous offense to heart.”
There was not the slightest bit of reluctance in this, which showed how useful Li Zisuan’s
reputation was.
And in truth, all this was based on Lu Qi’s great reputation.
The seven people all introduced themselves. The Four Cauldrons was called Geng Xing, and ranked 966th on the Galaxy Network. The man in green was called Lao Yuezhi. As for the others, Ling Han didn’t care.
Ling Han asked about this valley, and the seven people on the other side immediately answered with everything they knew.
As it turned out, there were many other valleys like this in this desert, and they were all shelters. If they encountered ferocious beasts that they could not match, or encountered a terrifying natural disaster, they could enter into the valley to hide.
None of the wild beasts dared to enter into the valley, and natural disasters, such as the super storm, would cause extremely limited damage here.
Ling Han nodded. These were all experience that had been pa.s.sed down through the generations, and the Nine Suns Holy Land’s situation was unique. They did not have the slightest bit of information about this, so he could only guess blindly.
“Brother Li, Brother Ling, how about we move together?” Geng Xing earnestly invited.
Li Zisuan didn’t dare to make a decision without permission. He looked at Ling Han.
Ling Han was unconcerned, and said with a smile, “Brother Li can decide.”
Li Zisuan couldn’t help but feel secretly grateful. Ling Han gave him face like this, which made him feel extremely touched.
“Then let’s go together,” he said reservedly. Though he was putting on airs, he still had to
take advantage when he should.
They exited the valley, and continued onwards.
After walking for half a day, the terrifying sandstorm appeared again.
“Quick, there’s a valley ahead,” Geng Xing said, pointing ahead.
Their luck was not too bad. Not too far away, there was a valley where they could hide, so
there was no need for them to dig another few hundred miles.
Taking advantage of the fact that the storm had not completely taken form, they quickened
their pace, and entered into that valley.
However, there were others in the valley.
“Yi, Geng Xing!” There were more people on the other side, and the person in the lead
recognized Geng Xing with a single glance.
“Yu Feiming!” Geng Xing also recognized him, and his expression immediately darkened,
with a sliver of wariness.
