1595 Take His Head to Obtain the Reward
Not long after Chu Yunfan and Lin Qiushui left, a group of people arrived on light beams. These people were dressed in gorgeous robes and had arrogant expressions.
“Did he not come?”
The leader was a young man with a strong build and handsome face. He was Liang Ruicai, who had swept through Great Qi and suppressed the entire kingdom.
“I guess so. He couldn’t have gotten the news that Ye Qiushui didn’t want to join us. Did she maybe tell him about this?” a young man wondered.
“That’s impossible,” Cui Mingjie, standing among this group, said. “The Yin Yang Energy Sigil was also planted in her body. If she’s smart, she wouldn’t have told Chu Yunfan.”
Everyone nodded. No matter how they looked at it, Ye Qiushui would not tell Chu Yunfan. In other words, none of them thought highly of Chu Yunfan, a native, not to mention that Ye Qiushui was also planted with the Yin Yang Energy Sigil. No matter how they looked at it, she should be on the same side as them. In their opinion, it was impossible for her to join forces with a native.
“That’s right. We all want to kill Chu Yunfan. How could she possibly have joined him?” Lu Hongyuan added. He didn’t believe that Ye Qiushui would betray them.
“But speaking of which, you guys are useless. You allowed yourself to be marked by a native,” a young man in a luxurious robe said as he looked at Cui Mingjie with an admonishing expression.
Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan’s expressions turned ugly. It was a great humiliation for them to be marked by Chu Yunfan. They would probably follow them for the rest of their lives. To suppress the sigil, they had no choice but to ask Liang Ruicai and the others for help. This matter would probably spread to the whole world very soon. They would never be able to wash away this shame unless they found Chu Yunfan and killed him.
“Don’t underestimate him. His strength is extraordinary, and most importantly, he has a hou by his side. We weren’t defeated by him, but by the hou,” Cui Mingjie said in his defense, his face going slightly red.
“Hahaha, you’re just looking for reasons to be weak.”
These young men burst into laughter. In their eyes, Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan were just trying to wash away their shame by making up stories.
“Hous have been extinct for centuries. Not even one can be found in Grand Xia, so how could one possibly exist here?”
These people didn’t believe there had been a hou at all. In their eyes, it was just a cover Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan were trying to pull.
“We aren’t lying. He did have a hou with him!” Lu Hongyuan said indignantly.
“You guys don’t need to make up stories. According to the information we received, Chu Yunfan never had a hou with him,” another young man mocked Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan.
Their faces flushed red and were furious, but they could not find any evidence to support their argument. From the information they had collected, Chu Yunfan indeed had no connection with the hou, but they had clearly been defeated by a terrifying hou.
Although these people were their temporary companions, they had their conflicts and didn’t get along well with each other back in Grand Xia. Now that they had seized the opportunity, they naturally tried their best to mock Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan.
Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan shut up. They knew that they weren’t lying, but these people thought that they were talking nonsense. When they met Chu Yunfan’s hou, they would know how powerful it was. Thinking of this, they hoped that Chu Yunfan could teach these people a lesson and let them know that it was not that they were too weak, but that the opponent was too strong.
“It doesn’t matter whether Ye Qiushui betrayed us or not,” Liang Ruicai said coldly, “Since Chu Yunfan didn’t appear here, he probably doesn’t dare to. If he dares to appear, I’ll kill him.”
Liang Ruicai didn’t take Cui Mingjie and Lu Hongyuan’s words seriously. The hou was a terrifying existence that was ranked at the top of the beast list in ancient times. When one appeared, it was usually followed by a barren land of a thousand miles. It was normal for it to turn an entire world into its food.
However, they had not received any news about a hou. It was clear that this was a mistake on their part. Liang Ruicai even speculated that the two of them had mistaken another creature for a hou. After all, a monster might have the bloodline of a hou, so it was not impossible for them to look like one.
“But what Cui Mingjie said isn’t without reason. Although Chu Yunfan is only a native, he is clearly different from the others. Even Xiang Feiyun died at his hands.”
Liang Ruicai paused for a moment and then said, “Have all the forces under your control spread out their spies. We have to find Chu Yunfan’s whereabouts. I heard that Marquis Huntian is also offering a reward for his head. Xiang Feiyun lost his life because he went to find trouble with Chu Yunfan.”
Liang Ruicai did not take Chu Yunfan seriously. He thought it was Xiang Feiyun who was stupid. What was so great about him? Among their group, there were several people who were stronger than Xiang Feiyun. Their strength was far above his.
Liang Ruicai would kill Chu Yunfan once he appeared. Then, he would go to Li Qianyuan, Marquis Huntian, to get his reward.
Though they were proud geniuses, when Li Qianyuan was mentioned, everyone’s face changed. He was a terrifying existence that they had to look up to. His cultivation might be even more terrifying than their sect master and elders.
Within their generation, he was a legend. He was not someone they could compare to.
“That’s right. We’ll take his head and get the reward.” A young man’s eyes burned brightly.
“Marquis Huntian has never been stingy with his subordinates. It’s time for our luck to change, hahahaha!”
“This is a pie that fell from the sky!”
