"Ling Tian, do you have any plans?”After the phoenixes left, Delin asked Ling Tian softly. Ling Tian's gaze was still fixated on the spot where the phoenix had left. He did not reply and only shook his head.
As an elder, and having just experienced a life and death situation, Delin naturally had a special relationship with Ling Tian. At this moment, Ling Tian seemed to be his child. Even though he did not know how Ling Tian managed to cultivate to such a formidable strength at such a young age, the fact that Ling Tian had been living in the dangerous Magical Beast Forest at the age of seven meant that the things he had experienced were definitely not something an ordinary person could imagine.
"Why don't you come with me to my granddaughter's coming-of-age ceremony?”Delin asked kindly.
Up until now, the number of people Ling Tian had interacted with could be counted on one hand. Other than Uncle Yan, the only person who could make him interact with such sincerity was probably this old man whom he had just met. Along the way, the old man had taken good care of him. This time, Doehring had disregarded his own safety and had gone through thick and thin with him. This showed how passionate and sincere Doehring was. Towards such an elder, who wouldn't have a good impression and respect for him? Ling Tian was no exception. Thinking that he really couldn't think of anything else to do, he nodded and agreed.
After the two of them recovered their stamina, Ling Tian used the Light Healing Technique to heal Delin's wounds. Seeing that the sky was already dark, he was worried that he might encounter some other magical beasts in this forest. He casually packed up and walked out.
"Big Brother, how was that little pump lady last night?”A shriveled man respectfully asked a middle-aged man with a scar on his face.
"Haha…Although this little pump lady is powerful, she'll still be docile in big brother's hands, don't you think so?”One of them interrupted.
"Haha…that's right!" The other twenty people echoed.
"Brothers, we don't know where this Flaming Mercenary Group came from. What medicine did they eat to actually dare to provoke our Ghost Grand Bandit Group?”The scarred leader was very arrogant.
"Big brother, I don't think they're here to die. Actually, they're here to send you a woman.”
" Haha…" Another burst of laughter.
It turned out that this group of people was from the Gui Hao Bandit Gang. The Gui Hao Bandit Gang did not have many people, only about thirty or so, but each of them was a high-level warrior, especially the two leaders, Ghost and Mu Hao. Both of them were silver-level, so they were ranked seventh on the Bandit Gang's ranking. They had committed crimes outside for many years and were notorious.
Mercenary City's mission board also had a bounty for the Ghost Grand Bandit Gang, but very few mercenary groups took it. The strength of an A-rank mercenary group was similar to that of these powerful bandit groups. Therefore, bandit groups rarely robbed A-rank mercenary groups. If the two sides had to fight to the death, even if they were lucky enough to win, their own group's strength would be damaged, and it might even be difficult to recover. This would affect the status of their own mercenary group, so they generally would not take over. As for B, C, and D grade mercenary groups, their strength was far from each other. If they took over, they would only die. There would be no other outcome.
For example, the Flaming Mercenary Group that he had taken over yesterday was a newly established mercenary group. They wanted to make a name for themselves in the mercenary world and go to destroy the Ghost Grand Bandit Group. In the end, the entire group died here, and the only girl became the target of abuse. Above the A-rank mercenary group was the powerful S-rank mercenary group. There were only three S-rank mercenary groups in the entire continent, namely the Crow Mercenary Group, the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group, and the Ocean Tide Mercenary Group. As for why they did not take over such a matter, the outside world was very inconsistent.
"Reporting to the boss, the tickets are here.”A small fry ran up from the foot of the mountain, panting. Hearing that there was a business, the twenty people who were still drinking and making noise immediately quieted down. The atmosphere was instantly tense as they waited for the chief's order.
"Oh? What business? How many opponents are there?" the Ghost asked.
"There are only two people, one old and one young, riding horses.”
"Did you bring anything valuable?”
"I didn't see him. However, the Second Leader said that they all had gorgeous interspatial rings on their hands. He estimated that there were valuable things in the rings that were worth a job, so he called his younger brother to report.”
"Since that's the case, we'll set off immediately. Brothers, there's a deal. Let's go down the mountain.”With a single order, more than twenty bandits followed the chief down the mountain to rob the goods.
"Brother, what is the meaning of this?" Doehring asked as he looked at the seven people blocking his path.
"What do you mean? Disorganized old man, we brothers are here. As long as you leave behind your interspatial ring, we will immediately let you two go over.”Mu Hao said stiffly.
Doehring looked at the seven people in front of him. They were all wearing black warrior suits, and the front of their clothes was embroidered with the image of a ghost howling. None of them had a scabbard on their weapons, and they hung naked at their waists. Delin was knowledgeable and could guess that they were members of the Ghost Grand Bandit Gang. He had heard of the notorious reputation of this bandit gang. They had always killed and robbed people, leaving no survivors. It seemed that today would not be a good day. Moreover, there was a Flame-Winged Lion in his interspatial ring. He definitely could not hand over the ring.
"Old man, what's wrong? What happened?" Seeing that the old man was silent, Ling Tian asked with concern.
Time was of the essence, and Doehring couldn't explain the reason to this person who couldn't even tell that it was a robbery. Ling Tian had always lived in the Magical Beast Forest and had only come into contact with magical beasts, so he did not understand the ways of the world at all. Seeing that there were only seven of them, he thought that he should be able to make it through with his own strength. He whispered to Ling Tian,""I'll explain it to you in detail later. These people are here to kill and rob. We have to break through the seven of them before their main force arrives.”
"Murder and robbery? Are they here to kill us?"
"What can I say? In short, don't fight head-on. If there's a chance, escape. Remember, don't fight too long, finish the battle quickly!”Delin was very worried about this child who didn't understand the ways of the world, so he repeatedly reminded him.
"Haha…Are you done discussing? I don't have the patience to wait any longer. Hand it over quickly. If you behave yourself, you'll be able to travel faster. "Haha…" Mu Hao hooted.
" Haha!" The other six people laughed wildly.
"Ah!" Before the laughter stopped, a scream suddenly sounded. A thief died without even fighting back.
"Stinky brat, how dare you sneak attack me? Brothers, kill them!" Mu Hao shouted angrily. The five bandits drew their swords and stabbed towards Ling Tian. As expected of a high-level Martial Warrior, their moves were experienced and vicious, each of them aiming for Ling Tian's vital points.
Seeing that Ling Tian had already made his move, Delin also flew down to help Ling Tian. Mu Hao thought that it would not be a problem for his five subordinates to deal with an underage child, so he took on Delin alone. Both of them were Silver Rank experts. As soon as they took over, they knew that their opponents this time were not simple people.
Doehring saw that this bandit leader was about as strong as he was, and thought to himself that victory and defeat couldn't be decided in a short time. While paying attention to Mu Hao's actions, he called out to Ling Tian,""Ling Tian, find a chance to escape. Don't linger in battle and end the battle quickly.”
"Worry about yourself first, disheveled old man. Neither of you can leave." Mu Hao thrust his sword at Delin. Although it was a simple thrust, it was very fast. Delin blocked it with his sword, and at the same time, he turned his body and slashed at Mu Hao from above. Mu Hao jumped up, dodging the attack, and then slashed at Delin.
The two of them moved quickly, and the sword and sword were thrilling. Although they did not use Silver Combat Energy to increase their speed and strength, the battle of moves at this moment was extremely dangerous. If they were not careful, they could be injured or killed.
Delin became more and more anxious as he fought. He thought to himself that if this continued, it would be difficult for him to escape. If his helpers arrived, both of us would probably die here. After Delin stabbed his sword at Mu Hao, he leaped back and placed his sword horizontally in front of his chest. He stared at Mu Hao and slowly unleashed his silver battle energy, preparing to attack with all his might to determine the victor in a short period of time.
