40 If You Just Open Your Dog Eyes Firs (1/2)

”Is it still far?” Yuan Gu complained. They were walking for more than twelve hours now and also reached the outskirts of the empire to head to the tamer guild. However, it seemed like this trip was not going anywhere.

”Shut up and just walk.” Old Mo refuted. They only walked for several hours yet this prince was already complaining. Ridiculous.

”I told you that we should use my mount. By that, we don't need to—” Yuan Gu was interrupted by Old Mo, ”My young master doesn't like riding in your mount. So what can you do? If you cannot walk anymore, why don't just fly ahead?”

Since Yuan Gu was a Sky Realm cultivator, he had the ability to fly and thus it would be possible to go ahead.

”Nevermind.” Yuan Gu waved his hands gesturing to drop the topic. Of course, he could if he wanted, but seeing the young master just made him not dare to. What if he disrespected this young fella and Jin Rou decided to kill him? That would be very very tragic. He had not yet found his love of his life and still didn't have twenty kids, so he could not die yet.

And of course, he was just over thinking things.

Jin Rou only walked silently as he look everywhere.

Outskirts of the empire was the Forest Fond, this forest was huge that estimated to span hundred thousand miles. And this were the home of all the beasts surrounding the Quu Empire. These beasts were classified as Normal, Natural, Rare and Mighty Beasts. The Mighty Beasts were the strongest of all the beasts around the world and mostly, they were the rulers of them.

Normal Beasts were the most common that could be seen everywhere in the low-tier empire's forest. Their limit cultivation was Profound Realm. Natural Beasts could naturally be found in middle-tier empire's forest and their limit cultivation was Earth Realm. Rare Beasts could be found in high-tier empires that had Sky Realm cultivations and the Mighty Beasts that only reside in the forest of the supreme empire, Gian.

Fortunately, the forest didn't have any mighty nor rare beasts because this low-tier empire could not withstand such an attack from this kind of beast. In fact, even the Natural Beasts could be threat for low-tier empires.

As they walked with the destination of tamer guild, Jin Rou stopped all of a sudden which confused Yuan Gu and Old Mo, and even the poker-faced Ran Haoyu was as well.

Old Mo asked with a tone of confusion, ”What's wrong, Young Master?”

Jin Rou said coldly, ”Five people are tailing us, and that includes the old man Yuan Gu bidded with.”

Yuan Gu was startled for a moment, but eventually gave off a smile and said indifferently, ”So that old man bears grudges since I stole his meal. Seems he will do even underhanded tactics just to obtain Haoyu.”

Jin Rou then commanded coldly, ”Yuan, clear things up.”

Although Yuan Gu was a bit displeased by being commanded, he still knew his place and affirmed, ”Then leave it to me.”

Five miles away from the current location where Jin Rou and the others were, four masked men in black robes stood next to an old man in black clothing also, however, he was not wearing a mask. This was San Hao. The old man that Yuan Gu competed in the bidding for Ran Haoyu. This San Hao was really dedicated in getting the girl with redfleeting lotus.

San Hao said, ”You guys are the infamous serial killers of the empire and four of the strongest cultivators of our empire. I hope you will not fail me. Remember, kill everyone except the girl and leave no traces.”

”Rest assured, Senior Hao. We will accomplish your task. Those people were nothing but mere ants.”
