Chapter 47: Robbery on the Road

  Everyone had some bloodstains on their bodies, but fortunately, they were all external injuries. Wang Bin let Lu Yuan keep watch and then sat down with everyone to clean up the wounds. After a brief rest, he replaced Lu Yuan.

  Luoyuxiu was the lowest and also the first to encounter Yuehuatuzi, but she just had messy hair, a torn green dress, some scratches on her arm, but not even a drop of blood came out.

  Wang Bin looked at the fake little kid sitting in meditation, and nodded secretly in his heart. Although her cultivation was a bit lower, she also practiced body training, so her actual strength could be compared to that of a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator. Moreover, she knew how to draw talismans, and the one she had just drawn had been a great help, otherwise they wouldn't have escaped the Moon Hua Rabbit's attack so easily.

  Luoyu, who was meditating with her eyes closed, sensed Wang Bin's gaze, but she wasn't worried. Since he was a trusted teammate of her brother's, he must be a good person. Even if he had any bad intentions, he would have to consider the background of the Huang family from Qingzhou - she wasn't someone to be trifled with.

  She calmed down and operated the Chaotic Vacuum to absorb spiritual energy. Her spiritual power had almost been used up, but she needed to replenish it properly.

  "Boss, that kid is over there!"

  A sudden voice rang out, startling everyone awake, while Wang Bin had already made preparations for battle.

  Luoyu stood up, drew out his long sword, and formed a triangular defensive formation with the others.

  Seven shabbily dressed wandering Taoists walked towards them, their faces stern and their eyes fiercely staring at the crowd.

  "Fellow Taoists, wasn't it just now that you picked the Moonlight Grass, provoking the Moonlight Rabbit to attack us and causing all of us to suffer severe injuries? Tsk, tsk!" The leading cultivator spoke up, his dark face twitching with fresh red scars.

  He was eight feet tall, with a scar on his face from the corner of his eye to the edge of his ear, which he had deliberately left after being wounded by the enemy. This was to scare off this group of young disciples who were new to the sect. If they were scared, they would hand over their valuables and be able to resolve the situation more quickly. He had used this trick many times before, with few exceptions.

  "I didn't startle the Moonlight Rabbit at all, it was clearly you people who approached and startled it. What's this, trying to frame me first?" Luo Yu angrily took a step forward, shouting loudly at the person coming towards her.

  "Hmph, so it's just a little girl! I wouldn't have known if she didn't speak up!" Scarface said with a smile, but immediately his eyes snapped open, his gaze turning fierce. "Since you know I'm a bad guy, you should obediently hand over the Moonlight Grass and other valuables on your person. That way, I might spare your lives!"

  Scarface Wang Hua, cultivator of the 12th layer. He thought to himself, his six subordinates were all in the later stages of Qi Refining, and no matter whether it was strength or numbers, they surpassed their opponents. Moreover, the opponent's trump card should have been used up during the battle with Moonlight Rabbit. With such a favorable situation, if he didn't take advantage of them, he would be unworthy of the scar on his face.

  "Hmm, what's it going to be? Your life or your wealth?" King Hua sneered.

  "I, I don't want wealth anymore——"

  Luoyu was taken aback and left the storage bag on the ground, while Wang Hua burst out laughing and slowly walked forward with his younger brother.

  "We want your lives!" Lu Yuan shouted loudly, his hands dancing with a secret gesture.

  Wang Hua was shocked and retreated hastily, but saw a burst of light around him, and a mist rose before his eyes, and he could no longer see his little brother.

  Wang Bin had long discovered that someone was approaching and recognized the notorious scar-faced man, who was ruthless and merciless, killing people and stealing goods without leaving anyone alive. Moreover, after encountering Yuehua Rabbit, Scarface must have understood that the spiritual grass collected by Luo Yu was indeed the Moonlight Grass, which could be sold for 10 pieces of low-grade spiritual stones in just 10 years. Since he knew this, how could Scarface let them off?

  So, he informed Lu Yuan to set up a first-class killing array, but this array required the opponent to walk into the formation voluntarily. Therefore, Luo Yu was sent to confuse the opponent, and the opponent saw that Luo Yu was young and timid, so they believed it to be true and voluntarily entered the formation, where they were trapped by Lu Yuan and separated from each other.

  "I can only hold on for a quarter of an hour, you must fight quickly and decisively!" Lu Yuan's face was flushed red, and sweat began to drip down.

  "I'll take care of Scarface, the others choose one person each and kill them before going to help others." Wang Bin shouted loudly as he leaped into the fray and engaged in a fierce battle with Wang Hua.

  His strength was lower than Wang Hua's by one level, but with the help of his formation, he should be able to take care of Wang Hua within a minute.

  Luo Yu also entered the array, targeting a loose cultivator at the 9th level of Qi Refining. This person was wandering around in confusion in the fog, when suddenly a flame attack came, he dodged to the side but didn't notice a long sword stabbing straight towards him from behind, "Hiss" the sword pierced through his body.

  "Ah——" The loose cultivator shouted loudly, turning his body to release a golden blade. Seeing the fake young master opposite him not dodging or avoiding, it seemed as if he was about to be struck in the chest by the golden blade. He appeared to see the scene of this young master's heart shattering and dying.

  "No——" Xiūbǔ's eyes widened in disbelief, his five internal organs were severely damaged, he lowered his head and saw the long sword of his opponent piercing from behind to the front of his chest, the sword body flashing with firelight, it seemed that his internal organs had been burned. He slowly fell down, but his upper body was supported by the sword body, he opened his eyes wide and saw a burst of light in front of Luò Yù, the golden blade completely dissolving.

  "This wicked Second Generation of the Immortal Cultivation!" The scattered cultivator's mouth was already unable to make a sound, and could only curse the heavens for their injustice in his heart, before being beheaded by Luo Yu with a single slash of her golden blade.

  Luoyu took big mouthfuls of air, staring at the headless scattered cultivator, blood flowing all over the ground, she turned around and dry heaved.

  The battle just now was less than a minute, but she won with difficulty. First, she used the fog to avoid his gaze, and when he dodged the flames emitted by the formation method, she took advantage of the opportunity to stab her sword into his back.

  In the formation, the opponent's line of sight and divine sense were blocked, but the fluctuation of spiritual energy could not be blocked. Therefore, Luo Yu did not use spiritual power, but only used physical strength to attack with his sword, achieving a strange effect. Later, that person counterattacked, but Luo Yu did not retreat, instead pouring all his strength and 50% of his spiritual power into the long sword, piercing through his body and burning his internal organs with flames, thus making him lose his attacking power. Finally, he still didn't feel at ease and added a golden blade to finish him off.

  "It's just the way of the world, survival of the fittest. Besides, they want to kill me, how can I not fight back? What I'm doing is right, it's right..."

  Luoyu gave herself a mental buffer for a minute, then took out the long sword from that person's body. With a 'ding' sound, the headless corpse finally fell to the ground. Luoyu didn't even look at it and turned around to find another target.
