Chapter 208: Three Tender Hunters

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: - -

A long-legged [1] woman dressed in red robes with a trident on her back stood forward; she glanced at Mo Wuji and sized him up before saying, ”Friend, where are you heading?”

Her robes were stained with blood, her neck also had a few scabs of blood. From the looks of it, she must have undergone several battles on her journey.

Mo Wuji answered, ”I’m heading to Wu Xue Prefecture, do you know the way?”

The woman pointed the the east, ”Follow this direction and continuously walk straight. You will be able to reach Qian Tai State. From Qian Tai State, you will be able to find the maps to anywhere you want to go, and there will also be beast carriages for rent.”

”Then may I ask where are we at now?” Mo Wuji asked another question.

The woman now pointed to the east, ”Over there, is the Yu Guang State territory. This is the center of Qian Tai State and Yu Guang State, it’s known as the Sick Woods.”

The woman seemed to be extremely clear of the surroundings and directions, and she seemed to be part of a mercenary group; Mo Wuji’s heart pounded as he rushed to ask, ”Have you heard of Wu Xue Prefecture?”

”I’ve been there before,” The woman answered in an extremely simple manner.

”I’ve heard that Wu Xue Prefecture has a gang of horse bandits called the Black Tailed Bees, have you heard of that gang?” Mo Wuji hurriedly asked. The Black Tailed Bees were the ones who killed Leng Jingbei’s entire family, and they were nested up in Wu Xue Prefecture.

Leng Jingbei, Aunt Eleven and Mo Xiangtong were together, and if they wanted to seek revenge, they would definitely go to the Wu Xue Prefecture to look for the Black Tailed Bees.

”I don’t know…” The woman grunted, turned and left; her face no longer had her previous calm. After the woman left, some of the members stared warily at Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji immediately discerned that this woman must definitely be related to the Black Tailed Bees. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have displayed such an attitude.

”That fella knows the Black Tailed Bees, should we get rid of him?” Even though Mo Wuji didn’t follow after them, he heard someone whispering within the group. He had spiritual will, and his power far exceeded the other party; even though the other party was speaking extremely softly, the words weren’t able to escape Mo Wuji’s ears.

”Let’s not get new problems on our plate. Moreover, he called the the Black Tailed Bees, bandits. They shouldn’t be from the same group.” Another person added softly.

”Hmph, the Black Tailed Bees are bandits.”

From the discussion, Mo Wuji could tell that this group had enmity towards the Black Tailed Bees.

Just as Mo Wuji was about to step forward and explain that he also had a vengeance towards the Black Tailed Bees, he heard the rumble of beasts trampling against the ground.

”Enemy!” A shrill voice shouted as two people on horses came rushing over. In an instant, they had reached the group. From the looks of it, these two must be the scouts of the group.

Mo Wuji was secretly shocked; the appearance of those beasts came as a shock, even he had just heard of their arrival. No wonder why those two scouts didn’t discover them sooner.

”Hurry, let’s go!” Including those who were cooking, everyone rushed to pick up their weapons and ran towards their lassoed mounts and a horse carriage. The few who were staring at Mo Wuji, did not continue to stare at him, but joined the rest to pack up.

Mo Wuji was a little speechless; from afar, he could already see a row of man on horses racing over. By the time they frantically packed their stuff up, this group would already be surrounded. Taking a step back, even if they abandoned their belongings, would they actually escape these horse riders?

”There’s no need to pack up, form up…” The woman who first talked to Mo Wuji came to an understanding; this time around, they had discovered the enemy a little too late, there’s already no hope of running.

Just at the group formed up into the formations, the riders had already charged over. There were at least 30 to 40 riders. On the woman’s side, including those two scouts, the group had a measly nine people. Furthermore, from Mo Wuji’s view, all nine of them were injured.

As the team of riders came over, they did not immediately rush to the front, but suddenly reined in their rides and stopped a few meters from the group of nine.

”Hand the thing over.” From the team, one of the horses strutted forward. The well-built rider stared at the woman and said coldly.

Mo Wuji finally came to an understanding of the situation; the two parties must have been fighting for something, and this something ended up in the hands of the small group of nine. Now, this team of riders had chased over for that something.

Mo Wuji did not know what these people were fighting for, nor did he care; he immediately turned and left. He did not intend to leave this place, but hide by the side and observe.

”Kill him.” What Mo Wuji did not expect was that the moment he turned, the rider that stood out from the group would roar out that command. Following that command, an arrow was shot over.
