Chapter 16: The Qingfengling bandits robbed and killed people, and voluntarily gave up hope of livin
Not far ahead, the Butcher and Viper of Qingfengling were blocking the road with a group of men.
Zhan Zhao realized something was wrong and shouted urgently, "Turn around quickly."
Seeing this, the coachman hurriedly urged the horses to turn around and leave.
Before the horses could turn around completely, the road behind was blocked by the third in command, Black Dragon and his men.
There is no hope of escape now!
Lu Ming noticed some movement outside while in the carriage. He stuck his head out to look and was shocked by the situation outside.
"bandit?"
Lu Ming was shocked, and so were the bandits in Qingfeng Ridge.
When Viper saw Zhan Zhao, his brows furrowed.
He could tell his identity from his clothes, especially the badge on his chest, which confirmed that Zhan Zhao was undoubtedly from the Temple of Fortune Tellers.
"Brother, they are from the Temple of Fate Master, what should we do?"
The butcher stared at Zhan Zhao, thought for a moment, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Things have come to this point. We have no choice but to continue. Besides, the person who entrusted us with the task is an important figure. We cannot afford to offend him. Even if he is from the Temple, we must kill him!"
"Understood!"
Zhan Zhao’s face darkened when he saw the blocked road. He knew that today’s hurdle would be difficult.
He walked forward slowly and suspended the silver book of fate above his head.
"Everyone, I am a level 39 Silver-Seal Tribute Scholar from the Temple of the Diviner. Please make way!"
Zhan Zhao’s words and actions just now were not in vain. He hung the silver-sealed book of fate above his head to demonstrate his strength, and at the same time pointed out his identity to make the other party wary.
If ordinary people saw this, they would naturally not dare to do anything and would most likely ask Zhan Zhao and the others to leave. The timid ones would even take the initiative to apologize.
But today, Zhan Zhao met a tough guy. The three leaders of Qingfengling were not ordinary bandits.
The poisonous snake waved his hand, and the bandits immediately drew their arrows and shot.
Zhan Zhao's face suddenly turned gloomy.
"Mysterious Ice Turtle, control!"
With a light shout, a turtle-like beast the size of a calf appeared in front of Zhan Zhao in a flash of light.
This black ice turtle is blue all over and looks like a pile of blue ice crystals from a distance.
It blew out a breath of cold air towards the carriage where Lu Ming was, and an ice shield protected the carriage.
Zhan Zhao shouted angrily: "Red Fire Fox, Magic Butterfly, Ghost Wolf attack!"
After all, Zhan Zhao is a member of the Temple of Fortune Tellers. He is proud of his noble status and believes that as long as he reveals his identity and strength, the bandits on the opposite side will let him go.
He never expected that the other party would not give him any face at all and actually launched an attack directly, which made him feel extremely insulted.
Under Zhan Zhao's command, the three beasts of life rushed towards the butcher and his men at an extremely fast speed, among which the ghost wolf was the fastest.
The ghost wolf quickly approached the enemy, with sharp fangs exposed in its ferocious mouth.
The butcher looked at the ghost wolf that was about to rush towards him with a look of disdain on his face.
He whispered softly, "Babies, come out and move around."
Before he finished speaking, a silver book of destiny appeared, and in a flash of light, four figures of destiny beasts appeared in front of him.
The Ghost Wolf looked at the four beasts that suddenly appeared, fear flashed in his eyes, and he quickly kicked the ground with his front paws, trying his best to stop his forward momentum.
Unfortunately, the distance between it and the butcher was too close and the speed was too fast.
When it stopped, it just stopped in front of the four beasts.
Before it could make any other moves, a thick bear paw slapped it.
The ghost wolf's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately used his special skills to escape.
"Wolf Shadow"
This is the Ghost Wolf's unique escape skill. Once it is used, nine Ghost Wolf phantoms will appear. The real body can switch between these nine phantoms at will to escape. It can be said to be a magical escape skill.
Even if it was a life-saving skill, he had to be able to use it, and the Ghost Wolf was still half a beat slow.
The bear's paw hit its head one second before the skill was performed.
"boom"
The ghost wolf's brain burst immediately and he was offline on the spot.
Zhan Zhao, who was hiding behind the Black Ice Turtle, had a changed expression.
When he saw the butcher offering the silver-sealed book of life, he knew that things were not going well. Before he could react, his ghost wolf died, which made him face pale.
However, as a member of the Temple of Fortune Tellers, he still has rich combat experience.
Zhan Zhao rushed into the carriage without saying a word, and rushed out with Lu Ming and Tie Niu on his left and right.
He wanted to escape with the two of them.
In the current situation, he was unable to protect others and could only escape with the two of them.
Seeing Zhan Zhao trying to escape, the butcher raised his lips and said, "You still want to escape from us? How naive!"
"Second brother, let's chase him!"
As they were talking, the Butcher and the Viper chased after them, leaving the Black Dragon to deal with the scene.
Zhan Zhao rode the Red Fire Fox and rushed towards the mountain on the left. He knew that it would be difficult to escape in this situation and he could only hope to get a glimmer of survival by relying on the terrain in the mountains.
Although the red fire fox was quite fast, it was not good at running and was soon caught up by the butcher and his men.
Zhan Zhao looked at the pursuers behind him closing the distance between them, his face gloomy. He looked towards Tie Niu on the right.
"Little guy, I had no choice. I'm sorry. It depends on whether you can survive..."
Tie Niu was confused by Zhan Zhao's words, but Lu Ming on the left understood his plan, that the other party wanted to abandon Tie Niu.
Abandoning Tie Niu in this situation would be tantamount to sentencing Tie Niu to death.
Lu Ming quickly said, "Wait a minute, Master Zhan, put me down and take Tie Niu away."
Zhan Zhao's face darkened: "No!"
Lu Ming knew that Zhan Zhao chose to abandon Tie Niu because he was born with full vitality, but he couldn't just watch Tie Niu die.
"Master Zhan, if you abandon Tie Niu, I will not live alone."
"Besides, I still have some skills in escaping, so I won't necessarily die!"
Tie Niu, who was originally confused, has now understood what was going on from the conversation between the two. He first turned pale because Zhan Zhao was going to abandon him, and then he was moved by Lu Ming's actions.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Master Zhan, please let me go."
Lu Ming shouted, "Tie Niu, shut up."
But Tie Niu said with a firm look in his eyes: "Lu Ming, your talent is better than mine. If you can survive, you must help me get revenge."
Then he looked at Zhan Zhao, the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
Zhan Zhao then loosened his right hand and the Iron Ox fell down.
"tractor!"
Lu Ming roared, and an iron rod appeared in his hand and stabbed towards Zhan Zhao's palm.
"what!"
Zhan Zhao felt the pain and subconsciously let go, and Lu Ming fell to the ground.
As soon as Lu Ming landed, he used his wind-control skills to quickly rush to Tie Niu, grabbed him by the collar and ran away.
He was born with supernatural powers and pulling the iron ox was as easy as pulling a piece of clothing.
In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the Red Fire Fox and threw it into Zhan Zhao's arms.
"Master Zhan, I'll leave Tie Niu to you!"
Lu Ming left this sentence and ran to the other side.
Everything that just happened happened in a flash, leaving people unable to react.
Zhan Zhao stared at Tie Niu in his arms with his eyes wide open: "This, this..."
Lu Ming's series of actions shocked him. Both Lu Ming's decisiveness and the speed shown by the other party surprised him.
But now there were pursuers behind him, so he could only hold Tie Niu tightly and growl: "Red Fire Fox, hurry up."
Tie Niu was already in tears at this moment. He knew that Lu Ming was giving him the hope of life.
He cried out with tears streaming down his face: "Lu Ming! Lu Ming!"
Zhan Zhao looked at Lu Ming going away and felt pity in his heart: "A genius is about to fall, what a pity!"
