Chapter 105 - Big Trouble
Zhou Hua felt that something was wrong. “What’s the matter?” she asked.
Just as she was about to toss another stone, she had noticed Tingting’s brows were knitted together again.
“There is someone coming!”
“What are you afraid of! Sir is always here to protect us,” Zhou Hua said indifferently.
As soon as Tingting said this, the three people who were eating meat beside the fire suddenly stood up nervously.
Whoosh!
They all drew out their swords.
Chu Qing and the others turned around to look at them.
Why were they so frightened?
“We might have brought trouble here. Quickly, run away! They might be looking for us.” The girl said to Chu Qing.
She looked guilty.
“It’s okay, we are not afraid,” Zhou Hua said as she shook her head.
The girl froze for a moment, then looked at Tingting.
Since she had noticed that someone was approaching from so far away, she must be a master.
However, this master did not move.
“Ladies, thank you for your hospitality, but these people are powerful and many of them are masters. You are no match for them. Even the person supporting you is no match for them. If you provoke them, there is nowhere you can hide.” The girl urged them to escape.
Her face was filled with anxiety.
Why were these people like this?
She had already urged them to leave. Why were they still here?
“Are they so powerful?”
“If you don’t leave, it’s really going to be too late. By then, we will all die!” The girl stomped her feet and said.
She seemed to be very anxious.
“She doesn’t seem to be lying. Let’s go!”
After staring at the girl for some time, Chu Qing waved at Tingting.
Tingting quickly pulled Zhou Hua towards the carriage.
“Sister Xiaoqing, what does she mean?”
“They are good people who are caught up with people they shouldn’t have provoked. They don’t want us to killed by their enemies.”
“Sister Xiaoqing, since they are good people, shouldn’t we help them? You know it’s difficult for siblings to depend on each other.”
Zhou Hua’s face sank.
The young boy was only twelve years old.
If anything happened to him, how could the sister possibly live with herself?
Chu Qing glanced at Zhou Hua and slowly explained. “The girl is not wrong. If we help them, we could get into deep trouble.”
“How did they provoke people who shouldn’t be provoked? Are they m more powerful than Sir?” Zhou Hua still didn’t understand what they were trying to say.
“The Qianyuan Sacred Ground!”
“What?”
“But how?”
Zhou Hua and Tingting said simultaneously.
Zhou Hua didn’t believe it.
Tingting tensed up.
“Haven’t you heard about the orphans who are from the Taiyue Sacred Ground over the past few days? They are two siblings. The elder sister is an eighth level Spirit Manipulation Realm cultivator while the younger brother is an eighth level Acquired Realm cultivator. They are wanted all over Zhongzhou, and the reward for capturing them is one thousand prenatal stones,” Chu Qing said with a frown.
At first, she thought that this might just be a coincidence.
But when Tingting said that a master was approaching, she had taken a closer look at the three of them.
The old man was seriously injured while the sister was covered in blood.
Evidently, they had been fighting a lot on the way here.
In addition, the brother mentioned that he had not eaten for three days.
“Are… are we just going to watch them get killed?” Tears filled Zhou Hua’s eyes.
This was very similar to her experience with A’mu back then.
But as they were fortunate enough to meet Sister Xiaoqing’s family, the two siblings had survived.
“We have no choice!” Chu Qing shook her head.
“What about Sir?”
“Do you think that Sir can deal with the entire Qianyuan Sacred Ground? Hua, don’t make things difficult for Sir. Let’s leave the carriage here and escape together with him” said Chu Qing.
Zhou Hua didn’t know what else to say.
The three of them headed back to the carriage in silence.
Lying on the carriage, Li Mu looked at the three of them.
“Sir, someone is coming to attack us. We need to escape!”
“It’s too late to leave,” Li Mu said as he shook his head. “They’ve already surrounded us.”
It had been a while since Tingting discovered that a master was approaching them.
The group was already surrounded by the other party.
“We are surrounded. What should we do?” Zhou Hua started to become very anxious.
Were they really going to fight against the Qianyuan Sacred Ground?
If she knew this, she wouldn’t have been greedy and barbecued a second serving of meat.
“Grandpa, you are a Virtual Realm master. If we run, I don’t think that anyone can stop us,” Tingting said flatly.
They couldn’t afford to provoke the Qianyuan Sacred Ground, so they needed to escape.
And Grandpa would not leave them and escape by himself.
The Qianyuan Sacred Ground would not want to deal with a Virtual Realm master.
“Let’s go then! We can’t let them find us!”
Li Mu turned his head back.
There was a sound of crackling air.
After a moment of dizziness, the three women appeared on an opposite mountain.
They looked back at their campfire from this distance. They immediately noticed the three people being surrounded by a larger group of people.
If they hadn’t left so quickly, they would have been besieged too.
“Those bad guys wouldn’t have let us go. Sir, please help them escape too!” Zhou Hua pleaded.
“Hua, if we help this sister and brother, this group of people will know that we did it. Then, we will need to face the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.”
“Then let’s just kill them all! Who did this to us in the Qianyuan Sacred Ground?” Zhou Hua had already thought of herself as the older sister.
“Our carriage is not discreet. We are the only ones who entered the forest today. Our identities are likely to be exposed. In the grand scheme of things, the Qianyuan Sacred Ground will never let us off,” Chu Qing said.
“Then what should we do? Just watch them die? They are good people. They even urged us to leave, knowing that we would be in danger. We can’t just leave them!” Zhou Hua looked at Chu Qing.
Seeing that Chu Qing was unmoved, she then turned to Tingting with a pleading gaze.
Then, she looked toward Li Mu.
“Sir!” Zhou Hua hugged Li Mu’s arm, rubbed her chest on him, and said coquettishly.
Chu Qing stared at Zhou Hua in shock.
Was she actually trying to seduce Sir?
“Chu Qing is right. We were not discreet when we entered the forest. Regardless of whether the brother and sister are dead or alive, we are already implicated in this. They will definitely not let us off, no matter what.”
Li Mu stared at the group of people on the opposite mountain who were at the carriage.
Without hesitation, they aimed their crossbows and shot at the carriage from a distance.
The four unicorns were immediately killed.
The carriage was covered with arrows.
After that, a man used a long knife and slashed against the carriage.
The crystal windows and the frame made of precious wood were all destroyed.
Crack!
In less than a second, the frame broke apart.
If they had not left in time and if they did not have a high cultivation level, they would be dead by now.
Assuming they were still near the carriage, they had no opportunity to escape.
They would definitely have died.
“There’s nobody here!”
After a group of people took apart the frame, they found that no one was inside.
Then, they immediately searched the surroundings.
“They couldn’t have run far. People in the surrounding towns must have seen such a unique carriage before. Notify the Sacred Ground to try their best to find them!” The leader said.
“This carriage looks so familiar! I think my friends in Snow City have mentioned such a carriage before!”
One of the middle-aged men stared at the carriage grimly.
He glanced the carriage up and down.
It looked very luxurious.
“Snow City?”
