Chapter Twenty-Three: Another Encounter with a Horse Thief

In the woman's opinion, there should only be one flaming horse near the Valley of the Wolf King, that is, the young man from last night.

And although that young man is strong, after all, he only has the fourth layer of refining body, and if he enters the Wolf King Valley alone, if he encounters a wolf pack, it will be a very dangerous thing.

The old man in the team was also a little surprised, he used his divine sense to search around, but he didn't find anyone, and couldn't help but wonder if the other party was in danger.

Yesterday, the elegant young man, holding a long knife in his hand, walked vigilantly to the front of the group, and when he saw the majestic appearance of the Flame Horse, he couldn't help but rise up with covetousness.

Confirming that the master was not there, the young man said to the robed old man beside him: "Elder Xu, this flaming horse seems to be the same person last night, but I didn't expect that kid to have a little ability, and he didn't know how thick the sky was, and he actually ran into the Wolf King Valley alone." ”

When the old man heard this, he nodded approvingly, and responded lightly: "Childe, this son is indeed a little arrogant, I just used my divine sense to scan the surroundings, and I didn't find any traces of anyone, it is estimated that this son has been buried in the wolf's belly." ”

Hearing this, the young man was overjoyed, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "It's just a pity that this good horse will be buried in the wolf's belly in a short time, it's really a pity." ”

Elder Xu knew his son very well, and he had already seen from his eyes that he coveted this flaming horse.

So he deliberately said: "It's a pity to be buried in the wolf's belly for such a good horse, why don't you keep it for the son, and return it to them when the son's family finds it." ”

Hearing this, the young man gave Elder Xu a hundred praises in his heart, but on the surface, he still had to pretend to be it, so he said in embarrassment, "Since that's the case, then I'll keep it first!" As he spoke, he went to untie the reins of the flaming horse.

However, at this time, the tall woman opened her mouth to stop: "Zhang Gongzi is slow, there are no traces of a fight nearby, and the flame horse is also tied to the tree in advance, I think that the son just left for something, let's not take the flame horse away!" ”

Hearing this, the young man chuckled disapprovingly and said, "Miss Qin, you are too careful, that person is a fourth-level refining body, in this Wolf King Valley, the worst Youyun Wolf can kill him, that kid must be more than lucky." ”

After saying that, he didn't care about anything else, and went straight to untie the reins on the tree.

It's just that his hand just touched the reins.

Suddenly, with a "pull", a crossbow arrow grazed his sideburns and fixed on the trunk of the tree, and the tail of the arrow made a buzzing tremor, and the young man was suddenly frightened and took several steps back, and sat on the ground with a butt on his buttocks, and a bean-sized cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Seeing this, the others drew their weapons one after another, and looked around vigilantly, for fear that another cold arrow would come and kill them.

"This son, why do you want to hurt people with an arrow in the back?"

That Elder Xu discovered Xiao Yifan's location at the first time and shouted at him.

"Are you really thieves shouting to catch thieves, am I hurting people with hidden arrows? It's clear that you're stealing my mount from behind, okay! Xiao Yifan jumped down from the tree and responded very politely.

When Xiao Yifan appeared, the tall woman suddenly showed a surprised expression, and said in her heart: "It turns out that I was not wrong yesterday, I really know this person." ”

Xiao Yifan's words suddenly made Elder Xu's face become very ugly, originally Elder Xu wanted to make a preemptive strike, saying that the matter was a sneak attack from behind Xiao Yifan's back, but he never thought that Xiao Yifan was not fooled at all, and directly pointed out that they were going to steal the mount.

It's embarrassing, because they're stealing mounts.

However, not all of them wanted to be embarrassed, and one of them stood up and quibbled arrogantly: "My young master just thought you were dead, so he wanted to help take care of this mount, why did you steal it." ”

"Boy, don't be ignorant, this son is not easy to mess with." Zhang Gongzi, who was sitting on the ground, had already stood up at this moment, took the words of the young man and shouted loudly.

"If you're not easy to mess with, am I so easy to mess with? You horse thief. Xiao Yifan replied mercilessly.

Zhang Gongzi already felt too embarrassed, but at this moment, he was stimulated by Xiao Yifan's words, and suddenly became annoyed and angry, and immediately shouted: "Boy, you are looking for death!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled out the long knife on his waist and slashed directly at Xiao Yifan.

Zhang Gongzi's realm has reached the eighth layer of body refining, and his own strength is not weak, and this knife under his anger is even more powerful.

Seeing this, Miss Qin on the side wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

Elder Xu had no intention of stopping it at all.

In the face of Zhang Gongzi's sudden move, Xiao Yifan was not surprised, after all, people who can do horse stealing can do anything else, what other things can't be done.

In an instant, the machete appeared in Xiao Yifan's hand, and the gale slash was violently unleashed.

"Zheng"

The two knives collided violently, and a huge metal collision sound sounded, and the two of them were shocked by the powerful anti-shock force at the same time, and they took several steps back.

The long knife in Zhang Gongzi's hand was a low-grade treasure weapon, and under the condition that the machete was extremely sharp, it only left a gap in the blade.

The treasure knife was damaged, and Zhang Gongzi's face became even more hideous, but he didn't dare to make a rash move.

You must know that Zhang Gongzi is a real eight-layer refining body, and in the case of holding a low-grade treasure weapon, he is even with Xiao Yifan, who only has a fourth-layer refining body, which makes Zhang Gongzi's heart feel a little jealous.

Standing firm, Xiao Yifan looked at Zhang Gongzi and sneered with a wicked smile: "The ability is not good, the tone is not small, if I hadn't deliberately missed the arrow before, there would have been nothing to do with you at this time, and you still want to hurt people, who gave you the face?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Gongzi, who was still a little jealous, suddenly couldn't hold back again, and with a swing of his knife, he was ready to attack Xiao Yifan again.

"Childe, no."

However, this time, he was stopped by Elder Xu.

In fact, Xiao Yifan's performance also shocked Elder Xu, just now Xiao Yifan's knife showed his strength, he felt that Zhang Gongzi might not be able to beat Xiao Yifan, although he himself was a master of the Qi Condensation Realm, he didn't need to be afraid of Xiao Yifan, but he was also worried about provoking the people or family behind Xiao Yifan.

Because, the forces behind those who can ride flaming horses will not be simple.

And the family he is in is only a small family, and the strongest one has just been in the Ning Dan Realm, so it is very unwise to be the enemy of the strong, so he doesn't want to expand the conflict further.

Stopping in front of Zhang Gongzi, the old man arched his hand and said: "This son, we were wrong before, we apologize, and please don't be embarrassed, let's leave." ”。

At this time, the tall woman in the team took a few steps forward, stared at Xiao Yifan carefully, and said softly: "Childe, do you remember me?" ”

When Xiao Yifan came over just now, he recognized this woman, it was the second lady of the Qin family he met when he just crossed over, but in this situation just now, he didn't take the initiative to say hello.
