Not long ago, she broke through the bottleneck and was promoted to the foundation building stage, so she went out to find medicinal materials and prepared to refine some auxiliary elixirs to consolidate her current unstable cultivation.
The reason why he appeared on the worship route is not because Xiao Yumu had any order to secretly protect the convoy. In fact, he just returned from looking for medicine from the outside world and happened to pass by here.
When she saw a group of men in black attacking the bearded man on the carriage from a distance, she had already decided to rescue him. After all, the carriage clearly bore the marks of the four major families. There was no reason for her to turn a blind eye, either emotionally or rationally.<
/p>
Unexpectedly, under the induction of her spiritual consciousness, she unexpectedly discovered that the person being besieged turned out to be an immortal cultivator. The strange thing is that she has not used magic weapons to strangle the person. Instead, she is playing like a cat and a mouse.
Be provocative.
Paying attention to the man's mysterious behavior, Xiao Yumu felt very bored, so she sent a message from a distance. Unexpectedly, this man used the golden blade technique, which surprised her.
Although Golden Blade Technique can be said to be a low-level spell that everyone can learn and use, there are very few people who actually use it.
Because most immortal cultivators have never practiced martial arts, they rely more on magic weapons, talismans, etc. for long-distance fighting and self-protection. The golden blade technique only creates a sharp golden light on the palm of the hand and cannot exist independently from the body at all.
.Therefore, it can be said that it has no effect at all when fighting. No one will use this trick.
This way of taking action was very similar to that person from back then, and it immediately brought back the memory that she had buried deep in her heart.
When she thought of that person, she couldn't help but kill all the men in black instantly. She knew that the person in front of her could not be him, but she still conducted some tests on this casual cultivator by accident.
After confirming that he was really just a casual cultivator, he also gave away a token of passage and a map. Although these were just a piece of cake and effortless for her, it was not at all consistent with her usual behavior.
p>
"Still haven't you completely forgotten him?" Xiao Yumu's red lips quivered, and her inaudible whispers were immediately blown away by the howling wind.
I don’t know why, but I just can’t forget his eyes. At that moment when he and Marquis Jin Wu were trapped together, begging him to help and destroy them together, the eyes he looked at him were so determined.
Although out of the kindness of saving his life, he was left with elixirs that could extend his life and magic weapons that could be used for body protection in the future. But in the days that followed, whether he was meditating or practicing or sleeping, Sun Huo's face
It appeared in her mind from time to time.
After three months like this, Xiao Yumu, who really couldn't get rid of Sun Huo, took the opportunity to carry out another mission and deliberately took a detour to Greenstone City to look for him.
Worried that her father's plot would arouse her wrath, Li Yan had no choice but to claim that Sun Huo had died.
After hearing the news, she herself was silent for a long time. She felt as if something was missing, but she felt a lot more relaxed.
This kind of move made Li Yan very worried, for fear that she would make some request to open a post-mortem examination. In this case, everything would be hidden. But in the end, she didn't say anything more, and that was it.
Of.
Since then, Sun Huo's face gradually faded from Xiao Yumu's mind. When there were no distracting thoughts at all, she took the Foundation Establishment Pill allocated by her clan and practiced hard in seclusion. Fortunately, she broke through the bottleneck and became a
Famous foundation-building monk.
Unexpectedly, the casual cultivator she met by chance today reminded her of his appearance again. Anyway, what she just did can be regarded as a little comfort to him, and he will completely let go of it in the future. Xiao Yumu's enlightenment
I stopped thinking about what happened just now and galloped away into the distance.
By the Liuyue Lake, Sun Huo found a clean stone and sat cross-legged on it, meditating. Being bored, he could only use this opportunity to pass the time by figuring out the eighth level formula of Jinyang Jue.
Originally, according to the estimated time, the convoy would also come here to meet up at about noon. However, Sun Huo waited here and waited until the evening before he saw the convoy from a distance.
After reuniting, Sun Huo saw clearly that one-third of the bodyguards escorting the convoy had been reduced, and most of the remaining people were injured. Even among the six people escorted by Sanying, only Xiao Feng was left.
and Xu Chao, the eldest brother of the twin brothers, and the other four were nowhere to be seen.
Sun Huo was shocked to see the manpower of the convoy being so depleted. When the people in the convoy saw Sun Huo appear unscathed at first sight, they were surprised and at the same time despised. But when they came closer, they saw what was left around them.
The large blood stains and messy footprints make people even more unbelievable.
Since it was getting late, the team also stopped and camped by Liuyue Lake, preparing to rest for the night before setting off on the road the next day.
After a conversation with Xiao Feng, Sun Huo learned about the experience of the convoy. At about the same time that he himself was surrounded, the consecration convoy was also attacked by about a dozen other killers. After a bloody battle, they attacked
Seven of them were killed, and the convoy itself also suffered heavy losses. What Sun Huo saw now was that all his men were left.
After Xiao Feng finished telling what happened to the convoy, he also asked about the situation on Sun Huo's side. As expected, if he could handle five or six people, he would be strong.
But what he never expected was that Sun Huo told the truth that he had attracted nearly twenty people.
To be honest, if Xianlai City had not paid the reward in advance instead of counting it by head afterward, Xiao Feng would have thought it was nonsense, and it did not depend on the time and place.
But looking at Sun Huo's expression when he spoke, it didn't seem like he was joking. In addition to being unbelievable, he really couldn't figure out how to do this. In comparison, his years of hard work seemed to have become nothing.
Not anymore.
Ignoring Xiao Feng's shock, Sun Huo was thinking about the next journey. There were so many people coming, and they were divided into two teams to attack at the same time. Obviously, not one family could invite them. They could only be assassins.
Someone called them together, but in the end they acted because of differences of opinion.
The group that surrounded him has been wiped out, so now only a few people who escaped after attacking the convoy are left. If we want to calculate the most suitable time to attack, it should be tonight.
The injured people are exhausted from the long period of intense vigilance. Even if they know about tonight's operation, they have no energy left to mount an effective defense. On the contrary, the enemy will become even more frantic and work harder because of the completion of the mission in front of them.<
/p>
After thinking about this clearly, Sun Huo smiled unconsciously. "Leave it to me! After tonight, no one will be able to hurt a single hair of the team."
"What did you say?" Xiao Feng looked at Sun Huo walking into the darkness alone again, and seemed to vaguely understand something.
Sure enough, from then on, there were no more insignificant men in black appearing on the way of the consecration convoy, and there was no sense of being watched.
Others slowly noticed a subtle change. Although Xiao Feng, the original leader of the team, was still close friends with this guy who left the team to travel alone again and again, his attitude became more respectful, not like before.
Generally it will be one level higher.
After trekking all the way, finally on the morning of the tenth day, the convoy saw a large grassland in front of them from a distance. There was a small octagonal eaves pavilion located alone in it.
