Chapter 271: This Kid Clearly Has Flaws Everywhere…
“Turns out this caravan isn’t from the main branch of the Li Family…”
Zhou Tong thought to himself, and immediately had a guess.
Over a decade ago, Li Xin Rou’s bloodline was expelled from the Li Family and thus disowned.
At that time, he just happened to get lost, and there might be some connection between these two events.
“Enough nonsense, hurry up and hand over the woman and treasures in the chariot, or don’t blame us for being impolite!”
The leader of the treasure-seeking group shouted loudly at the caravan, showing a tendency to act if there was any disagreement.
“You’re so arrogant! Do you really think we are easy to bully?”
With a loud bang, the Guard Leader immediately exploded with a powerful aura.
The Seventh Layer of the Cycle Realm was quite strong, and he managed to suppress the opposition.
Seeing this scene, the members of the treasure-seeking group were stunned for a moment, clearly intimidated.
“Zhang Hu, it’s still not too late for you to leave, otherwise don’t blame me for being impolite!”
“Hmph… I’ll admit you have some skill, but it’s a pity…”
Zhang Hu sneered coldly and snapped his fingers lightly, causing the Guard Leader’s expression to change immediately, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his aura rapidly weakened!
“You’ve been poisoned!”
Zhou Tong whispered, making the other party widen his eyes in shock.
“Leader, I’m sorry, we’ve already defected to the treasure-seeking group; they’ve offered us too much!”
Among the caravan, the remaining two from the Cycle Realm spoke softly, their faces showing guilt, but not much.
“Traitors! How dare you poison me? What has Miss Li ever done to you?!”
“We haven’t been wronged; we just want to serve a better master. What the treasure-seeking group provides can’t be compared to the Li Family.”
The two wickedly said, directly bypassing the crowd and rushing towards the treasure-seeking group.
“Want to leave? Leave your lives behind!”
The Guard Leader’s eyes were filled with killing intent, and he suddenly exploded with power, reaching the Peak Cycle Realm!
He had hidden his strength!
“Die!”
Two palm prints flew out, directly striking towards the backs of the two.
“No! Lord Zhang Hu, save me!”
The two’s faces turned pale as they let out desperate screams; however, the other party remained indifferent, even wearing a mocking smile.
With two loud bangs!
The hearts of the two traitors exploded simultaneously, losing their vitality and turning into cold corpses.
Before dying, they didn’t forget to glare at Zhang Hu with resentment.
They had been played!
“Pu!!”
After forcibly bursting forth, the Guard Leader seemed to have exhausted his last bit of strength, kneeling on one knee, spitting blood, his face pale and wan!
“Hehe… Luckily, I, Zhang, am cautious; I almost fell for your trick. Thanks to these two fools for helping me test it out!”
Zhang Hu said, relieved; if he had recklessly charged forward just now, he would have faced the desperate counterattack directly!
“Go die!”
Zhang Hu suddenly made his move, like a roc spreading its wings, charging towards the Guard Leader.
“Stop!”
At that moment, the door of the carriage opened, and Zhong Ningxue and Li Xin Rou walked out, instantly attracting everyone’s attention!
“Oh my god… what a pleasant surprise!”
He greedily scanned the two women, with greed shining in his eyes.
“Miss Li, I have long admired you; will you come with me willingly, or should I take you by force?”
Hearing this, everyone in the caravan showed anger, prepared to fight to the death at any moment.
The young lady was their deity and their spiritual pillar; even knowing it might mean death, they would still defend her dignity!
“I can go with you… but you must let my subordinates go!”
Li Xin Rou clenched her red lips, ultimately making a difficult decision.
“Miss, you can’t!”
The Guard Leader trembled and spoke, his face growing even paler.
“Be obedient…”
Li Xin Rou pleaded softly, “Please, the things in the carriage are more important than I am; only by ensuring they are safely returned can we save my grandfather’s life!”
“And only if grandfather survives can we pass the final trial and gain the chance for redemption; you know that better than I do!”
“But…”
“No buts, do you even listen to me?”
The Guard Leader trembled all over, and finally, he had to nod difficulty.
“Hahaha…”
At that moment, Zhang Hu suddenly burst into laughter.
“Stop negotiating; do you think I’m a child? I won’t make a choice!”
“Whether it’s the beauty or the treasures in the chariot, I want it all!”
As soon as these words came out, the expression of the Guard Leader changed drastically, and even Li Xin Rou couldn’t help but tremble. Was heaven trying to end them?!
“You’ve gone too far; I’ll fight you to the death!”
The Guard Leader risked everything and erupted, even though his body was on the verge of collapse, he still prepared for battle.
“Too weak!”
Li Hu mocked, like a tiger entering a herd of sheep, charging into the Li Family caravan!
“Ah!!”
In an instant, screams filled the air; the Guard Leader was sent flying by a punch, spitting blood and crashing to the ground, unable to rise despite his struggles!
The others were not his match at all and could not stop him!
“Get out of the way!”
Zhang Hu brushed aside everyone, eagerly rushing towards the two women.
However, whether by coincidence or not, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
It was a young man, whose aura was that of someone without any cultivation, infuriating him.
“A waste dares to block my way, die!”
He struck down with a palm, originally aiming for a blow to the head, but for some reason, he instinctively altered its direction, targeting the opponent’s shoulder.
In a moment of clarity, Zhou Tong looked up, meeting Zhang Hu’s gaze.
It was this glance that set off alarm bells in the other’s mind.
“Ugh…”
He let out a howl, as if electrified, leaping back instinctively, shaking even after landing.
“What’s going on? This kid clearly has flaws everywhere, but why do I feel that if I take action, I’ll definitely be done for?!”
He frowned, glancing at Zhou Tong again, feeling that something was somewhat familiar…
“What the hell?!”
Soon he remembered something, his eyes nearly popping out.
He would recognize that face even turned to ash; it was a not-so-pleasant memory.
Not long ago, he had led a team to the secret realm of barren mountains in the Eastern World, where not only was he educated by Zhou Tong, but he also witnessed the other’s prowess at the last moment.
To this day, he still remembered Zhou Tong splitting the secret realm with one hand, and now seeing him in person almost scared him out of his wits!
When did this group of losers from the Li Family latch onto such a big leg?
“Third Elder, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you moving?!”
A little brother beside him asked, confused.
“Don’t move! This is too tricky; withdraw!”
