The hunters then realized that thirty jugs of as in fact too much for one or two people to finish off all by themselves
“I don’t believe this sly bastard” One of the hunters strode forwards upon seeing Su Chen walk out the door As he reached out to grab Su Chen by the neck, he walked out the front door
All of a sudden, he stood frozen in place like a statue
“Hey, what’s wrong?” the other hunters asked They saw the hunter standing at the doorway trelanced at each other before all standing up and walking out the door They pushed aside the hunter, as still frozen there in fear When they saas waiting for them on the other side, all of them were totally dumbfounded
At soe group of people
They were standing there in neat forle word There were so many of thearrison’s front gates
Everyone present was badly startled
Most importantly, despite the fact that so arrison, none of them had made any noise No one in the tavern had any clue that such a large procession was headed their way
Were these guys ghosts?
No, they weren’t ghosts, but their discipline and formation were both incredibly strict!
Elite soldiers!
This thought flashed through all of their heads
The hunters weren’t co soldiers stationed here to keep the peace gave off such a terrifying aura These iven that they were able to get so close with thousands of people withouta sound not only indicated that they were incredibly disciplined but also was a clear deth
Why would this kind of a battalion suddenly appear near Flat Mountain Garrison? And ere none of theon

“Guide?” The young lanced around

“Little Sweet!” The old man was badly startled
Little Sweet said, “Grandpa, if these , they would be able to destroy the Flat Mountain Garrison ten ti toman said, “Are you familiar with this mountain path?”
Little Sweet puffed her chest out and said, “I grew up here ever since I was young No one is ion than I”
The young ht What’s yours?”
“Su Chen,” the young in Stones “This is the fee for guiding us
This handful of Origin Stones was tossed out so carelessly, but there were at least dozens of thegled as she caught the stones “Thanks”
“Little Sweet, give Grandpa the Origin Stones!” the old man said He wasn’t after her riches; he was just worried that the little girl would bring trouble on herself What if these guys were just pretending to be generous and wanted to kill his granddaughter in the in Stones? If she didn’t have ht actually be safer
Of course, this kind of thinking was totally unreasonable After all, if Su Chen and his group were people like that, they could have chosen to i them However, prudence and apprehension usually did not follow the rules of common sense
Little Sweet seein Stones away “It will take two days to reach the Heaven-Upholding Peak Do you want to prepare some rations before we set out?”
Su Chen replied, “We already have prepared our own rations In any case, it won’t take us two days to get there
Su Chen motioned as he said, “Death’s Shadow of a Youth!”
The white paper beast floated out into e creature, which seemed to be completely made out of paper, everyone was stunned
Su Chen said, “You’ll be responsible for her”

“Little Sweet!” everyone yelled
Little Sweet sat up fro!”
Upon seeing that she was fine, the others sighed with relief However, their apprehension towards Su Chen and his strange techniques only grew
Only the Death’s Shadow of a Youth felt incredibly wronged He was a Deirl He felt like it was such a waste of his talents
“If there’s nothing else, then let’s go,” Su Chen said faintly
The boat began to rise as it fleards
Su Chen and the others followed the boat into theparticularly fast, but they soon disappeared fro behind even a speck of unsettled dust
