Chapter 3235 We Are Surrounded!
Liyuan Realm, Southern Territory!
A horse-drawn carriage came slowly from the south, which is rare in Liyuan Realm. After all, in this plane, most of them are cultivators above the Holy Realm, and flying in the air is just commonplace.
However, in Liyuan Realm, there are naturally some ordinary people. Although they are the descendants of immortals or even god emperors, they are not born with cultivation.
For example, some women with extremely poor talents, or some young children, they can't fly, and they still have to use horse-drawn carriages to travel on weekdays.
And the means of travel of some big families and big sects may be some powerful bird-veined monsters, and it is obvious that the carriage from the south in front of them is not among them.
There was dust flying around the carriage, and dozens of riders surrounded it. It seemed that the status of the people in the carriage would not be too lowly, otherwise there would not be so many guards.
"There is a water source ahead, rest here tonight!"
A rider who looked like a leader at the front shouted loudly. Since he was sending an order to the guards, he was also reporting to the master in the carriage.
In front of it was indeed a river that entered a bend, which was most suitable for camping. After many guards worked together, a tent was erected.
At the same time, the leader of the guard personally walked to the side of the carriage. After saying a few words in a low voice, the curtain was lifted, and three figures with different appearances walked out.
One of the figures of a woman looks to be in her thirties. Judging from her graceful gait, she seems to be from a high family background. From her face, she can vaguely see her youthful appearance.
On the left side of the woman is a girl in yellow skirt who is about sixteen or seventeen years old, and on the left side is a child of five or six years old. Judging from their appearance, they should be close blood relatives to the woman.
"Madam please!"
The leader of the guards looked respectful, stretched out his hand, and led the three of them to the edge of the tent. Among them, the woman and the girl entered directly, while the five or six-year-old boy turned his gaze to another direction.
"Brother Li Xun, why does that little brother look a little embarrassed?"
This child seemed to be familiar with the guard leader named Li Xun. At this moment, he looked at a rough-clothed young man with a wooden sword on his back, and couldn't help asking curiously.
"Oh, did the young master say Brother Yunxing? He just happened to be going to Yuantu City for something. I thought he should be good, so I took it with him. Don't worry, he was very honest along the way!"
The guard named Li Xun had a smile on his face, even if he was facing a child, he didn't show the slightest impatience, and in a few words, he told the story of the young man in rough clothes.
"Mother said, this time when I return to Yuantu City, something big may happen, so be careful on the way!"
The childish boy spoke out in a mature manner, which made Li Xun's face a little ugly, and at the same time he heard him say: "But mother said again, everything is up to Brother Li Xun!"
Looking at the childish smiling face, Li Xun couldn't laugh or cry. This little guy has always been eccentric, and he seems to be playing tricks on himself, which made him feel better instantly.
To be honest, why didn't Li Xun know that when he returned to Yuantu City this time, his family might change drastically, and how could he not be on guard against an outsider who suddenly joined him?
Fortunately, as Li Xun said, after the rough-clothed young man joined, there has been no change, and he even shot and killed a tyrannical pulse demon once.
In this way, Li Xun let go of his vigilance a lot, and even had a thought that the Li family was in the midst of employing people, and if they could get that young man with good strength to join, it might be of some help. .
"Shuang'er, come in!"
Just when the toddler wanted to ask something more, a majestic voice suddenly came from inside the tent, which made him grimace, but he had no choice but to listen to his mother.
In the end, the child named Shuang'er made a face at Li Xun, and then got into the tent, and then there was a coquettish sound from inside, which seemed quite warm.
The night is gradually falling!
Piles of bonfires were going to be lit, and a dozen guards were divided into four directions, protecting the main tent in the middle, and guarding all directions faintly, which seemed to be full of experience.
However, along the way, at most, some thieves with three-legged cats beat Qiufeng, or some unsightly pulse monsters took the initiative to provoke them. For them, they did not pose a big threat at all.
Beep!
On a quiet night, occasionally there was the sound of firewood being cracked. Tonight, the moon is dark and the stars are few, and it seems to be darker than ever before.
"Brother Yunxing, come, drink!"
A voice came suddenly, making Li Xun, who was not far away, look up, but he didn't say much, maybe this was also his deliberate arrangement, so as to see the attitude of the rough-clothed youth.
"Brother Lu!"
The young man in rough clothes raised his head and recognized the man who came to persuade him to drink. His name was Lu Yan. His surname was not the original surname of the Li family, but he was the best brother of the guard leader Li Xun.
And this rough-clothed young man named Yun Xing was naturally the Yun Xiao who once displayed his supernatural power in Zhenyun Village and had an astonishing reputation.
At this moment, it is nearly ten thousand miles away from the so-called Zhenyun Manor, and because the limelight was so great that time, Yun Xiao naturally no longer has the same appearance as before.
Although he was still carrying a sword in rough clothes, it was not the Yulong Sword, but an ordinary long sword, and his name was changed back to the alias Yun Xing he had used before.
Yun Xiao knew that after the great battle, whether it was the three top powers or the overlord Tieshan Sect in this area, they were probably looking for him everywhere. With his current strength, he was definitely no match for him.
Therefore, Yun Xiao adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile, traveled all the way across mountains and ridges, rarely even entered the city, and finally got mixed up with the guards of the Li family.
With the power of Yun Xiao's soul induction, he should be able to sense that the leader of the guard, Li Xun, only has the cultivation base of a first-rank immortal. As for the remaining guards of the Li family, the highest is the half-immortal named Lu Yan in front of him. .
It can also be seen from this that the Li family should not be too powerful, and may even be quite inferior to the original Xiankui Sect. This is a good place for Yun Xiao to keep a low profile.
Presumably those members of the Tieshan Sect couldn't have imagined that Yun Xiaotang, a fifth-rank immortal, would submit to such a small family's guards, right?
As for the housewife, mother and son of the Li family, Yun Xiao was even less worried. From his perception, except for the girl who had some cultivation, the rest of the mother and son could be ignored.
"Hehe, brother Yun Xing has reached the level of a half-immortal at such a young age. I really admire him!"
Lu Yan drank a big bowl of wine and started looking for trouble. In his eyes, this young man in rough clothes was a half-immortal cultivator, and his combat power was about the same as his own.
But for a family like the Li family, a half-immortal rank guard is already one of the best experts. After all, the leader of the guard, Li Xun, is only a first-rank immortal.
Lu Yan and Li Xun are close friends, so they naturally know what that person is thinking. The rough-clothed young man in front of him is so young, and in time, breaking through to a first-rank immortal is a certainty.
If he can win him over to the Li family, then not long after, the Li family will have two guards of first-rank immortals, and their status in Yuantu City will definitely be elevated again.
"Did you hear it?"
However, as soon as Lu Yan finished speaking, the young man in rough clothes opposite him didn't answer the question. Instead, he asked a question that made him somewhat inexplicable, which made him slightly startled.
"Hear what?"
Lu Yan replied subconsciously, then seemed to realize something, pricked up his ears to listen, and no matter how hard he tried, he didn't hear even the slightest strange sound.
"Footsteps, at least twenty people, encircled, we... are surrounded!"
Yun Xiao took a sip of the strong wine in his hand. As soon as he said this, a look of disbelief appeared on Lu Yan's face, and at the same time, he turned his gaze to Li Xun, who was still drinking heavily.
"It turns out that he is a kid who only knows how to make public favors, but brother Li Xun still values him so much!"
Almost instantly, Lu Yan's impression of the rough-clothed boy dropped a bit.
Because even Li Xun, the first-rank immortal over there, didn't sense any abnormality, this half-immortal kid was obviously talking nonsense.
Although Li Xun is not a pulse refiner, and his soul power is not too strong, at least his pulse qi cultivation is there, and he has experienced many battles, especially his vigilance against danger, which Lu Yan admires from the bottom of his heart.
Especially when Lu Yan saw that the rough-clothed boy next to him was still able to spend time drinking there after saying those words, he was even more disbelieving.
If he was really surrounded by enemies, this kid would not be able to jump up. Could this breezy appearance be to show off his half-immortal status as a master?
Thinking of this, Lu Yan suddenly lost interest. He cupped his hands perfunctorily towards Yun Xiao, then stood up and went back to the guard leader Li Xun.
"Why did you come back? I don't think you two talked a lot!"
There was a smile on Li Xun's face, and after touching bowls with Lu Yan, he asked with a smile, he didn't think that in just a few words, there would be any result in the conversation.
"Brother Li, I'm afraid you have misjudged this time. Although that kid has good talent, his temperament is not very good!"
Lu Yan glanced at the young man in rough clothes in the distance, and couldn't help complaining in a low voice, which made De Li Xun frowned, secretly thinking that it would be embarrassing for that person to hear this.
"Guess what that kid said? He actually said that we were surrounded, and there were twenty people on the other side. Do you think it's ridiculous?"
Taking advantage of the alcohol, Lu Yan did not take the initiative to lower his voice in the second speech.
As soon as these words came out, not only Li Xun could hear clearly, but also the guards of the Li family from the other three parties could hear clearly.
