The horse carriage contineud to advance

However, it was now followed by an entourage of twelve bandits, stue

He Xiaochan couldn’t help but turn around and glance at the bandits behind the

Old He, however, continued to wear a frown

“Grandpa, what are you so worried about? Didn’t you see that Uncle Iron has already captured them all? I kneasn’t someone ordinary,” He Xiaochan said

“What do you know!” Old He said as he slapped his thigh

Ever since Su Chen had couide, and even when he had chosen the path with more bandits there, Old He knew that Su Chen and his servant were likely one of the legendary Origin Qi Scholars

But so what?

Just as he had said, there were plenty of people with talent Experts were present even ast bandits

He had traveled extensively in these past few years, and he had seenwithout much restraint and consideration

What happened to them in the end? Did they not all die without even a proper burial, their bodies lost to the desolate wilderness forever?

In this kind of society, the number of talented individuals that died was not a s twelve bandits eren’t even Origin Qi Scholars didn’t mean much at all

Su Chen continued to read, He Xiaochan only able to coax perfunctory answers froe, while Old He continued to fret

“What else could it be? Murder, arson – there’s no evil act they won’t do!” Old He’s legs were like jelly Norer business transactions Why would they send out such a large force against a e?

He had overlooked the twelve bandits trailing behind the carriage

It was i of bandits to not attract notice

The Tortoiseshell Cae, and even if they sent some men, the five camp heads wouldn’t have made an appearance But when they saw the trail of captured bandits behind their carriage, wasn’t that quite an arrogant statement?

A provocation?

Whether it was a provocation or not, the Tortoiseshell Caet about whether the other party was an expert or not

Whoever acted the eously would be able to survive!

So no matter what, as bandits they needed to co was off…… they would figure it out later Bandits only had so much patience; how could they take the time to draft up a plan or think multiple steps ahead?

It was probably more accurate to say that they didn’t look back no matter howsuch an arrogant procession, the Tortoiseshell Caathered together to surround the group
