Chapter 48: Princess of Tianhe

~8 min read 1,588 words

Half a month later, in a continuous mountain range.

A person was leading a green mule, walking slowly in the mountains. The mountain road was narrow and rugged, leading all the way to the mountains further away.

It was Wang Yu, who had set off two days ago to look for the Guangyuan Market.

Although he had a storage bag, the space was not large enough, so he could only buy a mule to carry the extra things.

He didn't know the specific location of the Guangyuan Market, so he could only set off from Tongzhou City and come all the way to the northeast, finally plunging into this unknown mountain range.

One person and one mule passed through a difficult mountain road, and in front was a fork in the road where three roads met.

Wang Yu looked at the intersection not far away, but his face changed slightly, and he stopped his footsteps abruptly.

In this suddenly open intersection, there were more than ten corpses lying, including men and women, but most were dressed as guards, holding knives and swords, and there were also seven or eight livestock corpses carrying heavy packages.

"Overclock."

Wang Yu entered the overclocking synchronization state almost at the first time, and with the magnification of his five senses, all the details of the corpses in the distance were clearly visible.

Regardless of human or livestock corpses, they all had black blood flowing from their seven orifices, but there were no wounds on other parts of their bodies.

The faces of those guards even carried a trace of strange smiles, as if the whole team had fallen to the ground and died in an instant, without any signs of painful struggle.

"Swish."

Wang Yu grabbed the iron essence long knife at his waist, and his gaze swept rapidly toward the nearby area.

Suddenly, his ears moved, and his gaze fell instantly on the ground no more than a few feet in front, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

"Boom."

In the splashing mud, two figures rushed out from underground one after another.

Then, the slender figure in front seemed to be hit by something from the air, and after a delicate cry, she fell in front of Wang Yu. It was a white-skirted woman with a peach-blossom face and a graceful figure.

This beauty, who looked no more than twenty years old, had blood stains on her waist. The yellow short ruler in her hand only had half left, and the pale yellow light shield on her body was also crumbling.

"Fellow Daoist, save me! This person is a robbery cultivator. My father is the Prince of Tianhe of the Tianhe Prefecture. If you help me, the Tianhe Prince's Mansion will definitely reward you heavily." The white-skirted woman barely raised half of her body, only to discover Wang Yu right in front of her, and immediately begged for help with joy, setting off her enchanting features, giving people a feeling of wanting to hold her in their arms.

Prince of Tianhe, this woman is a member of the royal family!

Isn't "Tianhe Prefecture" one of the twelve prefecture cities of the Wu Nation, adjacent to the Great Ming Prefecture!

Wang Yu heard this and was stunned.

"Someone passing by at this time, I don't know if it's your bad luck or this girl's good luck."

The person behind walked out of the dust. It was an ugly man holding a silver giant hammer, with messy long hair and a set of staggered yellow teeth.

He saw Wang Yu and was also a bit surprised, but immediately pointed at Wang Yu casually from the air with the silver hammer in his hand, and said fiercely in his mouth.

Not good!

Wang Yu, who was in the overclocking synchronization state, had sharp five senses. Without thinking, his figure swayed and flew toward one side. The palace-dressed woman also avoided to the other side in panic.

"Boom."

Where the two stood originally, the ground suddenly exploded, and a large pit half a meter deep appeared out of thin air.

Under the impact of the aftermath, the light shield on the white-clothed woman flashed wildly and then shattered and dissipated completely. Moreover, her figure staggered a few steps, and she sat on the ground, unable to get up for a while.

"Actually able to dodge a blow from this master?"

Seeing this, the ugly man showed a trace of surprise.

You must know that this silver hammer magic tool of his could hurt people invisibly from the air. He used it to ambush opponents who didn't know the bottom line before, and he succeeded in eight or nine out of ten cases.

"My eyes are not blind. I saw the scene of you hurting people from the air just now clearly. I am just passing by. Fellow Daoist, you really don't intend to stop and want to clean me up together?" Wang Yu looked at the big pit next to him, and his divine sense vaguely felt the magic power fluctuation of the ugly man that was far stronger than his own, and his face was a bit ugly.

The other party seemed to be a mid-level Qi Refinement cultivator, and the silver hammer in his hand seemed to be an entry-level magic tool, otherwise, it would not have such terrifying power.

"Fine, as long as you leave immediately and don't interfere with whether this girl lives or dies, I don't want any extra trouble either." Upon hearing this, the ugly man narrowed his eyes, used one hand to heavily plant his silver hammer into the ground, the hammer head sinking halfway into the earth with a rumble, and replied coldly.

The man seemed to have astonishing strength as well.

"It's a deal."

Wang Yu's gaze flickered a few times, and he immediately retracted the iron essence long knife at his waist, led the mule, and walked toward one side of the mountain road, seemingly wanting to bypass the ugly man and the white-clothed woman from far away.

"This Fellow Daoist, please don't listen to his nonsense. This person is despicable and shameless, specially ambushing and robbing fellow Daoists here. He also used poison to assassinate my guards earlier and carries an Earth-Escaping Talisman.

After he kills me, he will definitely kill you to silence you. By the way, I have another powerful companion who is fighting with one of his accomplices on the other side. The three of us joining forces is not without a chance of winning." The white-clothed woman saw this and panicked, hurriedly begging Wang Yu.

Wang Yu's footsteps paused slightly, but he immediately accelerated a few points, without any intention of stopping.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist is very wise. This girl called out her identity earlier, clearly wanting to drag you into the water and provoke a fight between you and me so she could take the opportunity to escape." The ugly man saw this and laughed loudly.

Wang Yu did not pay attention to the two anymore, just buried his head and walked away with long strides. In a moment, he had already walked seven or eight feet away.

The white-clothed woman watched this scene, gripped the short ruler in her hand powerlessly, and a look of despair couldn't help but flow on her enchanting face.

The ugly man looked at Wang Yu's departing back, the smile on his face gradually converged, and cold light flashed in his eyes. Then, a yellow talisman hidden in his sleeve suddenly ignited, and a group of yellow spiritual light entered the soil under his feet silently. At the same time, he grabbed the silver hammer and swung it at Wang Yu's back from the air.

The ugly man just made a move, but Wang Yu, who had his back to him, had been prepared. His figure suddenly turned around, and the iron essence long knife appeared in his hand again. But the ground under his feet suddenly collapsed and disintegrated, causing his legs to sink into the soil, unable to move for a while.

At the same time, a large group of invisible wind pressure emerged from above, pressing down fiercely, making people unable to avoid it.

Wang Yu's pupils contracted with crystal light. He gave a low shout, his legs exerted force and jumped upward, his body jumped a foot high with a huge force from the soil. With another empty hand, he just turned it over, and a silver folding fan appeared, and he swung it upward with force.

"Huff."

The white wind rushed into the sky and collided with the invisible wind pressure above, exploding with a thunderous roar. The strong wind rolled and scattered in all directions, making nearby people unable to open their eyes normally for a while.

Seeing this, the ugly man's face changed slightly. He fished out another exquisite yellow talisman, chanted words in his mouth, and slapped it on his body. Then, he chanted words skillfully, yellow light flashed on his body, and a pale yellow light shield vaguely appeared.

In the flying sand and rocks, Wang Yu's figure had already landed, but at the moment of landing, the long knife was quietly inserted into his waist, his right leg bulged with blue veins, and he exerted force again. His figure shot out like a cannonball in the splashing mud.

Drawing Knife Technique!

After a sharp shout, a snow-white knife light lit up in front of the ugly man. ===== CHAPTER 49 =====
