The Legend of the Devil
Ch. 145 - Fan Yuan
A strand of red robes flew over, a girl set her foot slowly. His red eyeball stared intently at the now-dead enemy with his neck pierced by a dagger.
The presence of the girl shocked the people around.
Fenghuang possessed a different kind of strength than humans, even beginner-level warriors could already tell the difference. Pure power is much more concentrated than ordinary power. The pressure around can overload the shoulders and minds of others. His waist-length hair moved with the current of wind, Fenghuang then turned around and pointed at Xue Zhan's annoyed face.
"Just shut you down, nothing's been looking for trouble!" the curse, if still with the form of a phoenix had been pecked Xue Zhan to tears.
Xue Zhan pengang heard the nagging of the girl who was like there was no end, fighting with sixteen warriors felt much better than arguing with Fenghuang.
"Forget about them, we continue our journey. Hurry along!" forcefully, Xue Zhan was willing to interrupt but he immediately realized that danger was lurking from behind Fenghuang.
An arrow shot out as fast as the wind, Xue Zhan pulled Fenghuang as fast as possible and caught the arrow with his bare hands.
"This ..."
Xue Zhan was careless, he immediately threw the arrow away and an explosion followed. He clenched his hands in annoyance, the three enemies took advantage of the opportunity to escape. Xue Zhan did not stay silent, he directly chased after them.
The three of them could be overtaken quickly, Xue Zhan intercepted in front of the road. One sword swing with a unique technique was visible, the three people were still weighing wanting to advance or retreat because they felt Xue Zhan was still quite far away.
A sharp sunken wind swirled over the air without any form, the two people escorting the group leader shouted stifled as something cut their necks. Although not until cut off the incision damaged the source of air entry into the lungs. The two falls were still convulsing in the face of death, while the remaining one began to retreat in alarm.
Out of the sixteen people only remained himself. Archery troops from a distance could not reach this distance, they lost the opportunity to run. The enemy reacted too quickly and he also had an unfathomable strength.
The man had already calculated everything. Today the greatest warriors of the Diqiu Empire will gather in the palace hall, the rest of whom will be in charge of escorting the festival. The guards in this city did not pay much attention to the way Fan Yuan came.
You could say they are very unlucky to face the young man without that identity. Plus he brought a foreign girl with equally great strength.
"Give the man alive and I'll let you go."
The man was grumbling his teeth, he was indeed a cunning criminal, for a matter that risked life of course he would not foolishly offer his head to be beheaded.
"All right-"
Xue Zhan interrupted, "you expect me to say so?" ledek. The temprament of the head of the robber went up three levels, his face flushed withstanding the ever-increasing embarrassment. "You want to kill me? Go ahead. I'm not gonna let this guy live, so we both lose!"
The man did not hesitate to slit Fan Yuan's throat, he pulled the knife while grinning obliquely. However his hand immediately stopped the moment Fenghuang flicked the sleeves of his robe.
Blood splattered on the man's chest, suddenly he was already severely injured right in the heart. Fenghuang's formless wind penetrated into his vital organs and instantly leaked the blood flow in the man's body. Xue Zhan turned his head towards Fenghuang like he wanted to protest.
"Bar-bar once, I wonder where he came from but you killed him immediately."
"You keep getting angry like a stepmom." Xue Zhan finally protested, he could not retaliate much because Fenghuang was a woman. Now Xue Zhan acknowledged that he had to lose the argument with Fenghuang.
After becoming a human he had grown even more annoying, Xue Zhan had almost smashed his head against the wall in frustration.
"Old Monster!" call Fenghuang to Xiang Yi Bai, the man furrowed his brows like he was distracted. Nonetheless he immediately caught up with the two while looking around, dozens of bodies lying along the way. Some of the newly arrived soldiers started to secure the situation and called for reinforcements. There was a commotion, some people questioned Xue Zhan about the robbers.
Fan Yuan was still trembling violently, he was accompanied by several Diqiu Empire warriors walking closer to Xue Zhan.
"Thank you ... You've helped me. I owe you."
"No need to be sad."
"Gorgeous lady, you have also saved me. I have nothing but rewards." Fan Yuan looked back to ask for some money in return from the bodyguards. "Receive my gift."
Xiang Yi Bai put the two hands together in a respectful manner. "My disciples still needed a lot of practice, overdoing it in return. I hope you respect my decision."
Fan Yuan and the people surrounding the three of them were shocked, the man who had been busy snacking on sweets turned out to be the teacher of the white masked young man.
"Ja-so you're the Teacher? Sa-I'm very grateful. If it wasn't for you guys somehow my current fate ..."
After realizing it Xiang Yi Bai had great prestige, even though he was only a meter away Fan Yuan could feel the astonishing radiant aura of the male figure. He immediately believed that the white-robed man was the young man's teacher. Fan Yuan bowed his body while thanking him three times.
"We need to get on with the journey immediately" said Xiang Yi Bai. Fan Yuan held the three.
"Wait, I feel bad about not giving you anything. Will you wait until the bodyguards come, I want to invite the three of you to the guest dormitory. We can eat together on the night of the Wind Goddess' Birth."
Xue Zhan only listened to the conversation between the two, he did not expect that Xiang Yi Bai would accept Fan Yuan's offer without thinking twice.
"certain. With pleasure."
Fan Yuan was endlessly looking around, that man was the type of person who greatly appreciated others. In addition, Fan Yuan had a position that was quite influential so it was easy for him to prepare a special room for his guests at the residence he would be staying at during the Wind Goddess festival.
The crowd has not died down, in an instant the fight in the city became a topic of conversation that continues to spread. The Empire has promised to investigate who is the mastermind or the group involved in the attack this time and punish their officers who are negligent in carrying out their duties. The message was conveyed regretfully by the soldier-head in the face of all the disappointed people.
There were many casualties, unexpectedly a masked young man who did not want to say his name came and fought against the enemy. The warrior chief came towards Xue Zhan who was about to follow Fan Yuan's entourage. His heavy voice sounded implying great honor.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Swordsman. We really appreciate your kindness."
Xue Zhan nodded. Fan Yuan's horse-drawn carriage returned, this time accompanied by twenty soldiers, Xue Zhan, Fenghuang and Xiang Yi Bai.
