"The leader is dead!" Dozens of bandits stared at this scene in stunned silence. The atmosphere in the canyon was extremely quiet. For a moment, everyone could not believe that their most admired leader had been killed by that young master.
As subordinates loyal to the two brothers Sun Hu and Sun Bao, they are very aware of how terrifying and powerful their leader is. They have been able to stay here for so many years and pretend to be powerful, but they are all relying on the notoriety of these two acquired peak powerhouses to bring disaster to one side.
Now that the two of them are dead, the prestige they have built up over the years has naturally disappeared. Then they, ordinary bandits, will of course be scattered when a tree falls, and a group of people will become like birds and beasts! How can they survive if they continue to stay?
"Brothers, run!" When the bandits saw this, they ran away. Even their two leaders fell. Do they still stay with them to die?
"These guys run so fast!" Han Wenqing covered his injured abdomen and staggered over. His expression was extremely pale. When he saw the group of bandits fleeing to the other side, he smiled helplessly.
Lu Chen helped up the seriously injured Teng Qinglei and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much about a bunch of rabble. Our first priority is to protect Jia Tianpeng's family, as long as you don't hinder us!"
"Brother Lu, you are indeed very strong. If it hadn't been for you this time, Senior Brother Teng and I would have been afraid of something unexpected!" Han Wenqing praised with clasped fists, with genuine admiration on his face.
Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Don't compliment me so much. If I couldn't kill the bandit leader with the sword I just struck, my end wouldn't be much better!"
"What should we do next?" Han Wenqing looked at the messy scene around him and was speechless.
"Send someone to inform Senior Sister that they are coming! Let the uninjured Jianzong disciples help organize the convoy. Some horses were frightened just now and they don't know where they went!" Lu Chen looked around and sighed softly.
Han Wenqing took a look around and immediately directed the uninjured Sword Sect disciples to clean the battlefield and retrieve the frightened horses. He also sent people to inform the senior sisters outside the canyon that Jia Tianpeng could enter the canyon safely.
"How are you?" Lu Chen asked Teng Qinglei.
Teng Qinglei shook his head and said solemnly: "It doesn't matter, these are just minor injuries!"
"Is everything okay?" Seeing that he was seriously injured, Lu Chen asked again.
Teng Qinglei frowned and said: "Are you looking down on me? As a warrior, bleeding and injuries are commonplace when traveling outside. This small injury is nothing. Even if I die unfortunately, I will admit it!"
"What the hell! Brother Teng, don't get me wrong!" Lu Chen explained with a smile.
Teng Qinglei glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Thank you!"
"No need to be polite, we are from the same sect, and we should help each other when we go out!" Lu Chen said humbly.
Teng Qinglei showed a stingy smile: "That's right!"
Lu Chen picked up the soft sword lying not far away and looked at the corpses on the ground and the scene of rivers of blood. He couldn't help but feel: "The world of warriors is destined to be full of swords and swords. Sometimes, I really wish I was an ordinary person."
!”
"You can't say that. What's wrong with being a warrior? It's so satisfying to be able to personally experience the most beautiful love and resentment in the world, drink the strongest wine in the world, and fight with swords. We, warriors, will live this life in vain!
Sometimes, ordinary people will envy the wonderful world of warriors!" Teng Qinglei sat on a stone and let a sword sect disciple help him bandage his wounds. Lu Chen's words made him
Grinning.
Lu Chen was stunned and sighed: "Really? Maybe, God has destined him to take an unusual path when he is born!"
In the canyon, stains of blood could be seen everywhere, and swords fell messily aside. The scene was extremely bloody, silently telling the story of what had just happened.
A luxurious carriage drove slowly from the mouth of the canyon. Everyone was surprised to see dead bodies everywhere.
"Lu Chen, how are you?" Murong Ziyun quickly got off his horse and rushed to Lu Chen's side, asking with concern.
Lu Chen said with a smile: "It's okay, everything has been solved!"
"Where are Han Wenqing and Senior Brother Teng!" Murong Ziyun looked at Teng Qinglei on the side.
"No problem!" Tengqing Leiyan said simply and concisely.
"Han Wenqing is cleaning the battlefield!" Lu Chen explained.
"What exactly is going on?" Murong Ziyun asked with a frown.
Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said: "Obviously, there are bandits ambushing us, this matter is not that simple!"
"How's the loss?" Murong Ziyun asked.
Lu Chen said with a tired face: "You have to ask Han Wenqing about this!"
At this time, Han Wenqing came over and said calmly: "Six disciples died, three horses ran away, but there were no other losses!"
"The loss is so serious?" Murong Ziyun frowned even more tightly.
"Senior Sister, this is serious! If Lu Chen hadn't killed the bandit leader just now, we would have been annihilated!" Han Wenqing said with a bitter look on his face.
Murong Ziyun was shocked: "Who is that bandit leader? He is very powerful?"
"It's not bad, my strength has reached the peak level of the day after tomorrow, and there is a group of bandits entrenched nearby. Fortunately, Han Wenqing and Brother Teng arrived in time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to kill them so easily!" Lu Chen explained truthfully.
When Murong Ziyun heard what he said, he was extremely shocked. Now Lu Chen can actually kill even the warriors at the peak acquired level. How strong is he?
"What should Senior Sister do now?" Han Wenqing asked.
The senior sister came back to her senses and said indifferently: "Give the dead Jianzong disciple a good burial, find some horses to transport to the truck, rest for a while, and leave immediately!"
"I'll make arrangements right away!" Han Wenqing nodded, then turned and left.
"Senior Sister, I suspect there are still people ahead who will intercept and kill Jia Tianpeng!" Lu Chen looked at the luxurious carriage not far away and said in a low voice.
Murong Ziyun was shocked when he heard this: "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, these bandit leaders should be sent by Jia Tianpeng's enemies. I don't know who they are, but they won't stop there!" Lu Chen said his guess.
"Well, I understand. Let's leave here first. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time!" Murong Ziyun nodded, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.
Lin Junyu sat on the horse and stared at the tragic scene in the canyon with wide eyes. His expression turned pale and he was extremely frightened. What happened here and why were there so many dead bodies on the ground!
"Little brother, are you okay!" Lu Chen came to Lin Junyu and saw that his face was pale.
He looked like he was talking and asked with a smile.
Lin Junyu didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and stammered: "Brother Lu, what exactly happened here?" As a son of a wealthy family, he lived an exquisite life of singing and dancing, and having rich clothes and fine food. He had never experienced the cruel world outside. Today,
Seeing so many corpses was probably a nightmare that he would never forget.
"It's nothing, I just met a group of bandits!" Lu Chen said calmly, looking calm and calm as if he had drank a glass of water.
"Bandit? Where are they? Where are they? Do I want to hide?" When he heard the word "bandit", Lin Junyu was so frightened that he turned pale and wanted to dismount. He was as timid as a mouse.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years!
The previous scene of being chased by bandits is still vivid in his mind, causing Lin Junyu to tremble all over when he hears the word bandit.
"Look, you're scared. You're not even as good as a girl. Don't be afraid. I've driven away the bandits. We're safe now!" Lu Chen joked with a smile.
Lin Junyu's handsome face turned red with embarrassment. He wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say.
"Wait a minute, we'll leave soon!" Lu Chen comforted him, turned around and walked towards the motorcade. When the Sword Sect disciples saw Lu Chen, they all showed awe.
Lin Junyu admired Lu Chen even more.
When Lu Chen came to Jia Tianpeng's motorcade, Butler Jia quickly stopped him and asked, "Brother Lu, how is the situation?"
"There were bandits who robbed them, and after a fight, they were all solved!" Lu Chen said in a relaxed tone.
When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately frowned and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
"These bandits were lurking halfway up the mountain in advance. It seems they came well prepared. If I hadn't told the convoy to separate, I'm afraid the losses would have been huge!" Lu Chen explained truthfully.
"Brother Lu, thank you for your hard work. I will definitely report this matter to my master, and he will definitely compensate you!" the butler said with a pleasant smile.
"No need, this is a matter of duty, why bother!" Lu Chen quickly refused.
"You Sword Sect disciples have paid such a high price, so this little favor is nothing. Brother, please stop being humble! I owe you all for taking care of me along the way!" the steward insisted.
Lu Chen said helplessly: "Then it's up to you. We're leaving soon, so let's get ready!"
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now!" The butler nodded with a smile, turned around and started walking away from the luxury fleet, obviously reporting to his master on the situation in the canyon.
After the team took a rest in the canyon, they continued on their way.
A gust of cold wind blew head on, blowing away the depression that had been suppressed in everyone's hearts.
At dusk, a sunset floated quietly over the hills. The temperature began to rise. The thin ice in the creek melted quietly and gurgled! The gentle afterglow shone down, giving everyone a layer of melancholy.
Not long after, the outline of a bustling town gradually emerged at the end of the road.
Seeing the town appear, Lu Chen and others, who were worried, breathed a sigh of relief.
