"Who are you, daring to interfere with the business of Flowing Cloud Sect?"
The man in grey, with a sullen look in his eyes, stared intently at the carriage and spoke coldly.
The man in grey was not a fool.
Although he did not see how his sharp arrow was deflected, there was no one else on this official road except for the carriage ahead.
Moreover, he had clearly heard earlier the little girl in the carriage call out, "Sister Zhao."
Obviously, they knew the girl in front of them.
So, while questioning, he made a secret gesture, signaling his followers to slowly encircle them.
Lu Qing and the others naturally noticed the man's small movements, but they did not care.
Mago immediately went to Zhao Qianlin, who had collapsed from exhaustion on the ground.
"Miss Zhao, are you okay?""I'm fine." Zhao Qianlin's face showed both the relief of surviving a disaster and worry, "Hero Ma, you shouldn't have saved me. These are the disciples of Flowing Cloud Sect who are after us. By saving me, you'll incur their wrath!"
"It's fine. You still have injuries. I'll help you over to let my master take a look."
Mago was not flustered at all. He just supported Zhao Qianlin and walked straight towards the carriage.
"Looking for death!"
Seeing that the other side not only did not respond but dared to take the girl away in front of him, the man in grey was instantly furious.
Without a word, he pulled the bow again and shot an arrow at Mago's back.
Ding!
Mago didn't move, holding Zhao Qianlin with one hand, and with the other, he drew his knife and slashed the arrow away.
"Hmm?"
Seeing Mago so easily deflect his sharp arrow, the man in grey's eyes narrowed.
He could feel that Mago's cultivation level was not as high as his, merely at the Tendons and Bones Realm.
But his knife skills were quite exquisite, otherwise, he would not have been able to deflect his arrow so effortlessly.
After deflecting the arrow with one slash, Mago did not stop and continued to support Zhao Qianlin back to the carriage.
"Old Doctor Chen, Young Master Lu."
Zhao Qianlin felt both grateful and ashamed.
In the morning, when they left, they had confidently bid farewell, not expecting that in the blink of an eye, they would be rescued by the old doctor again. ?Ä???È?
Moreover, this time, they would also implicate the old doctor and his party, attracting the wrath of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
"Don't speak first. Let me check your injuries."
The old doctor stopped Zhao Qianlin from thanking him and began to check her injuries.
After an examination, he found three sword wounds on her body, one on her waist, one on her abdomen, and one on her shoulder, each deep enough to see the bone, quite severe.
It was really not easy for her to have held on until she collapsed here.
"Take this medicine first."
The old doctor put a blood-replenishing pill into Zhao Qianlin's mouth.
Then he said to Xiao Yan, "Xiao Yan, help Sister Zhao inside and use the golden ointment to bandage her wounds."
Zhao Qianlin was a girl, so Lu Qing and the others couldn't apply the medicine to her.
Fortunately, in the past two years, Xiao Yan had learned a lot of medical knowledge from the old doctor and knew how to bandage simple wounds.
"Understood!"
Xiao Yan responded sweetly and was about to help Zhao Qianlin.
"Old Doctor Chen, no, you should leave quickly. These people are extremely cruel. Just now, in the town, they killed half of the people. They are worse than beasts..."
Zhao Qianlin's words were cut off by the old doctor: "You said they killed half of the people in the town ahead?"
Zhao Qianlin said angrily, "Yes, when we arrived in the town this morning, we were planning to buy some supplies, but we found these Flowing Cloud Sect disciples causing havoc in the town.
Originally, Master was going to hide us until they left.
But unexpectedly, because a stall owner complained a bit, these Flowing Cloud Sect disciples not only destroyed the whole stall but also killed the stall owner’s entire family, even intending to kill the children.
Brother Dashi couldn't bear it and immediately fought with them.
Later, we were no match for these villains, and Master and the others were captured. Only I, under Master's last desperate fight, managed to escape.
Old doctor, these people are devils. They started looting the town, killing anyone who resisted, extremely cruel!"
Listening to Zhao Qianlin's tearful recount, the old doctor's face turned increasingly grim.
Lu Qing, seeing this, knew that his master was truly angry.
He immediately pushed his sister, "Xiao Yan, take Sister Zhao inside to bandage her wounds."
Zhao Qianlin originally wanted to refuse, but after meeting Lu Qing's gaze, she swallowed her words and obediently followed Xiao Yan into the carriage.
"Sir, is what Miss Zhao said true?"
After Zhao Qianlin entered the carriage, the old doctor looked at the man in grey who was slowly approaching.
"So what if it is?"
The man in grey, seeing that his men had formed a circle and the carriage had no escape route, sneered.
By now, he had also noticed that this suddenly appeared carriage had only four or five people.
Apart from the man who had deflected his arrow with a knife, the others were not strong.
That old man naturally was out of the question, as he had no blood and energy power.
The remaining three, one was a little girl, another one had just entered the Qi and Blood Realm, and the only one with some skill was the young man carrying an iron stick, who was at the Tendons and Bones Realm.
Two at the Tendons and Bones Realm, plus a few old, weak, sick, and disabled people, dared to interfere with the affairs of Flowing Cloud Sect.
The man in grey's heart was filled with killing intent, and a cruel look appeared in his eyes.
He was already thinking about how to torture these people.
"I heard that Flowing Cloud Sect is a famous and respected sect in Yunzhou. Why are you doing such cruel things, not only robbing people of their money but also exterminating entire families? Don't you think it's too much?" the old doctor said sternly.
"Flowing Cloud Sect's actions need no explanation to others!" the man in grey sneered.
"Old man, since you know the great name of Flowing Cloud Sect and still dare to hinder us, you must be tired of living! Men, take them down. Don't kill them yet; I want to torture them first before killing them!"
"Yes, Elder!"
The Flowing Cloud Sect disciples who followed, all with cruel smiles, armed with weapons, rushed towards the carriage.
"Looking for death!"
Seeing this, Mago's eyes widened, and his battle knife was unsheathed. His entire body erupted with blood and energy, taking a step forward, and with a horizontal sweep, he slashed out.
Boom!
Under Mago's full-force explosion, the power of this slash was immense, instantly forcing back the attacking Flowing Cloud Sect disciples.
After forcing back ten people with one slash, Mago felt a surge of heroism in his heart. He took another step forward and slashed again.
This time, he aimed directly at one of the retreating Flowing Cloud Sect disciples, slashing down from above with the force of splitting a mountain.
The power of the slash was so great that it shattered the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple's courage. In panic, he could only raise his weapon, but in the next moment, he was violently shaken, spewing blood from his mouth, and was slashed away along with his weapon.
After eliminating one opponent with a single slash, Mago did not stop.
He charged straight towards the remaining Flowing Cloud Sect disciples.
He intended to fight all the disciples of Flowing Cloud Sect alone.
This scene not only made Wei Zian's blood boil but also left Zhao Qianlin, who had poked her head out from the carriage curtain after hearing the commotion, dumbfounded.
