3631 Rest
Feng Jiu sat on the grass, admiring the expanse of the mountains and plains, and inhaling the fresh scent of plants in the air. Her previously stuffy chest gradually relaxed.
She took a few sips of water that Leng Shuang handed her, and then with a flip of her palm, she took out some spirit fruits from her space and passed them around. “Here, have some to moisten your throats!”
“Yes, ” Qin Xin took the spirit fruits and distributed them to everyone.
Their group had more than a dozen people. There weren’t too many, but each one was powerful. No one could actually harm them as long as they were not against someone at the level of a Monarch.
Since they were travelling in a low-profile manner, their cultivation levels were concealed, making them appear as ordinary guards. However, unlike typical guards, they all had exceptional bearing and striking looks.
Du Fan surveyed the landscape and said, “Master, since Skylink Monarch died, nobody has taken over this area. The spirit consciousness that once covered it has dissipated; it’s essentially a no-man’s land now.”
As Feng Jiu ate a spirit fruit, she looked around and said in a soft voice, “This is not really a no-man’s land. Everyone is just watching in silence, and no one dares to claim it.”
Her eyes flickered as she continued, “Skylink Monarch and the Master of the Black Lotus died at our hands. As for who this territory belongs to, everyone knows. If they dare to claim it, they’re openly declaring war on us. Currently, unless there’s an overwhelming benefit, they won’t risk becoming our enemies by claiming this land.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up as they heard this. “So, does this mean this land is Master’s?” Feng Jiu’s hint made them realize why nobody dared to claim this land. They only felt it was odd that no one had ventured to take over this region for so long, even though the Heavenly Lord and the Black Lotus Lord were already dead, Feng Jiu’s strength had dropped and Hell’s Lord was still unconscious.
It wasn’t that people didn’t want it; they didn’t dare to!
The sound of carriages could be heard faintly from a distance on the mountain road. Those surrounding Feng Jiu looked in that direction. Several carriages were coming their way. Because of their swift pace, the horses’ hooves kick up a lot of dust on the mountain road.
Luo Yu pulled their spiritual deer carriage to the side to make way, while others formed a barrier around Feng Jiu to shield her from view.
Perhaps surprised to find a carriage parked on this mountain path, a girl in the lead carriage peeked out from behind the curtains. When she saw handsome men gathered together, as if blocking something, the girl was curious.
She couldn’t see what the men were guarding, no matter how hard she looked. When the carriage passed by the spirit deer carriage, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed, “Violet Gold Spirit Deer! How beautiful! Stop, stop the carriage!”
The girl clapped her hands to stop the carriage and her eyes were glued to the parked Violet Gold Spirit Deer carriage. When she saw that luxurious yet unpretentious carriage, her gaze naturally shifted to the men.
“Is this Violet Gold Spirit Deer carriage yours?”
Because the carriage in front had stopped, the carriage behind had also come to a halt. In the first carriage, where the girl had jumped off, a middle-aged man frowned and raised the curtain to look outside.
