Chapter 20: The Treacherous Mountain Road

The carriage had already left Guanshan City, and after leaving Guanshan City, the carriage entered the middle of a narrow mountain road.

The carriage was walking on the mountain road, and after leaving Guanshan City, there were no pedestrians around the carriage.

However, even if there were no pedestrians around the carriage, the guards inside the carriage did not dare to be careless, and they still watched the movements around them with all their attention.

They are all guards in the Chu clan, and as long as they are guards in the Chu clan, they have all undergone strict training. As long as the guards are on duty, they are very rigorous, and they can't tolerate any mistakes.

Although the carriage was walking on the mountain road, and there were no people around, they all had to be on full alert. Walking on these trails is also likely to encounter some dangers.

As before, they were attacked by the assassins on a hill.

Or in the hidden places on both sides of this mountain road, there are killers lurking on both sides of the mountain road.

Even if there are no killers lurking on both sides of the mountain road, walking in this mountain path is very likely to encounter some powerful demon beasts.

The vast majority of demon beasts live in the mountains and forests, and this mountain forest is the territory of demon beasts, and walking on the territory of demon beasts, of course, you have to be careful of being discovered by those demon beasts and attack them.

If it were some low-level or mid-level demon beasts, with their six guards with more than twenty levels of soul power cultivation, they would be able to cope with it. However, if a high-level demon beast appeared, then it would be much more difficult for them to deal with it, and if a king-level demon beast appeared, they would not be able to resist it.

Of course, if some powerful demon beasts appeared, they might be exterminated by those high-level demon beasts.

Therefore, at this moment, the guards on the carriage did not dare to have any carelessness.

They continued to observe the situation around them.

As long as there is any dangerous situation, they can also be the first to perceive it. As long as they are the first to be aware of it, after they are ready, when those demon beasts suddenly attack them, they can also minimize the danger.

Chu Tian could see that the guards sitting beside him were all on guard, and he also knew that it was those guards who were protecting him. Being protected by those guards like this, Chu Tian also had an inexplicable feeling.

Chu Tian's current soul power cultivation is completely empty, but he can also look around with his eyes, those guards don't dare to slack off in the slightest in order to protect him, how can Chu Tian himself be lazy?

Chu Tian was also like those guards, looking out through the tattered parts of the carriage.

Chu Tian also had to observe carefully and see if there was any movement around him. Whether it was the appearance of a demon beast or some cultivators with evil intentions, if Chu Tian looked outside, he might be able to find something. Despite the complete loss of cultivation, Chu Tian's state of mind consciousness still existed, and his eyes were still very keen.

So the carriage continued to walk forward on the mountain road, and walked some distance on the mountain road, although they had been attentively checking the movement around the mountain road, but they found nothing. I didn't find any demon beasts or other cultivators.

Of course, they were not attacked, and the carriage was only a little bumpy on the mountain road, but it also kept walking, and did not stop on the mountain road.

Without being attacked, the carriage carrying them was also very fast.

Besides, the killers who assassinated Chu Tian and them before, after being repelled by the six guards who escorted Chu Tian, they did not follow them any further, but went back to Chu Zhuang directly, and after discussing with Chu Zhuang, those killers were quickly driven out of the Chu clan.

Chu Zhuang had already let them dress up as his servants, led by the chief butler of the Chu Zhuang family, and drove them out of the territory of the Chu clan all the way.

In Chu Zhuang, they had already agreed with Chu Zhuang, and after the six guards escorted Chu Tian to the extraterritorial, after those guards left Chu Tian, they would assassinate Chu Tian.

Chu Zhuang also allowed it, no matter when, as long as they could take Chu Tian's head to see him, then their remaining part of the remuneration would not be less.

Faced with the temptation of Chu Zhuang's huge reward, how could those killers give up so easily! After discussing with Elder Chu Zhuang, they broke out of the territory of the Chu clan, and they still had to continue to hunt down and kill Chu Tian.

Now they are equipped with mounts and can walk much faster.

The five of them, dressed in the clothes of the servants of the Chu Zhuang, sat on horseback, and galloped out of the territory of the Chu tribe all the way.

At this moment, their travel speed was also much faster, which was several times faster than the carriage that Chu Tian and the seven of them were riding.

At this moment, the five murderers were going to catch up with Chu Tian and them again, and when those guards escorted Chu Tian to the extraterritorial, after the six guards had left Chu Tian, they would kill Chu Tianxia.

Those five killers, thinking of the huge amount of spirit stone remuneration given to them by Elder Chu Zhuang, how could they easily let go of such a fat sheep as Chu Tian.

The hearts of the five killers were also very eager, riding on horseback, holding the reins in one hand and waving the whip in the other, letting the whip hit the horse's back, urging the horses to run forward quickly.

They were all running at several times the speed of the carriage, and although Chu Tian and they had already gone far, the five killers were still gradually closing the distance between Chu Tian and them.

Of course, the comings and goings of those five killers had already delayed a lot of trips, and it was impossible for them to catch up with Chu Tian for a while.

As for the current whereabouts of the five killers, Chu Tian and the six guards on the carriage also had no way of knowing.

They were just concerned about the danger at hand, and the carriage was moving all the way forward, while they carefully watched their surroundings.

However, the carriage walked a long way on the mountain road, and they didn't notice anything, neither the demon beast nor the cultivators, and they were the only ones in the mountain path who were in a hurry.

"A few more miles away from this mountain!"

The carriage had already covered two-thirds of the way, and they had not yet encountered any danger, much to the relief of the guards on the carriage.

The leader of the guards had also hurried on this mountain road more than once, and the leader of the guards knew very well how dangerous this narrow and winding mountain road was, and it could only be described as extremely dangerous.

The carriage walked in the mountain road, and there were no pedestrians around, because the mountain road was too dangerous, and if it was not a last resort, I would not want to walk on this mountain road.
