“Brother Chen!”
Jiang Qiang saw three cultivators coming towards them, especially the one who emanated a spiritual might indicative of a cultivator at the seventh stage of Qi cultivation, his whole body becoming tense as a rock, his heart sinking as if it was filled with lead.
Clearly, the situation Chen Dengming mentioned before had become their reality.
...
There were actually cultivators ambushing Miss Luo Family.
He didn’t know whether this had been a case of their bad luck or Chen Dengming’s prediction being frighteningly accurate.
“Do not panic!”
Chen Dengming slightly furrowed his brows, sizing up the swiftly approaching three, his mind swiftly spinning to come up with a countermeasure.
However, he did not feel panic when facing these three.
But it was clear, if the three were planning an ambush for Luo Bing, there would surely be more than just these three.
Chen Dengming pondered hastily, suddenly emanating a spiritual might belonging to a cultivator at the sixth stage of Qi cultivation.
The initially dark robe he was wearing suddenly emitted a metallic shine.
The aura he delivered was cold and resolute, a perfect match for his iron armor!
The armor vibrated tumultuously, Chen Dengming’s hair fluttered by his temples, his handsome face carried a pair of sharp, tiger-like eyes which radiated an awe-inspiring, and an almost diabolical quality.
His eyes opened and closed, flashing with a mysterious light, staring directly into the hearts of the incoming three.
His Heaven Court was broad, and under the outburst of his spiritual might at the sixth stage of Qi cultivation, he naturally emanated an awe-inspiring aura.
“Hmm?
He isn’t just anyone, could he be more than just a loose cultivator?…”
The three cultivators who had arrived on their chariots were taken aback.
The leading cultivator with the surname Ling frowned, unexpectedly slowing down his flying speed, looking closely at Chen Dengming’s stout, upright figure, and the faint evil Qi emanated from him.
Such an evil Qi, clear evidence of experience in killing people or Demonic Beasts, was just concealed by him.
Just as Ling was processing these details, the atmosphere had become extremely tense.
Chen Dengming abruptly altered his powerful aura, his face becoming cheerful.
He cupped his fists in salute and said,
“Fellow Cultivators, greetings!
I am Gao Hu, a cultivator of the Business League.
R𝑒ad lat𝒆st chapt𝒆rs at free𝑤ebnovel.com Only.
Here is my waist tag.
When we of the Business League are traveling, we always seek to establish good relations.
We believe in harmony and prosperity.
May I know if there is any misunderstanding between us?”
“Business League?
Gao Hu?”
Cultivator Ling was flabbergasted.
He had been planning to make a move, but then Chen Dengming suddenly backed off.
Moreover, he claimed to be from the Business League, leaving him undecided.
However, he quickly reacted and said coldly,
“Misunderstanding?
What did you all just speak of?
You think we didn’t hear it?”
Jiang Qiang’s heart skipped a beat.
Chen Dengming immediately exclaimed in astonishment, “Oh?
You all knew about the shortcut, a small route that our Business League has opened up here?
Although that small route may encounter Demonic Beasts, it saves half the time compared to taking the main road to the Eastern Region.
We in the Business League have always regarded it as a secret route.
I didn’t expect you to know about it too?…”
The cultivator Ling raised his eyebrows, while the other two men cast uncertain glances at each other.
Chen Dengming, who was best at observing, noticed the expressions of the two men and knew immediately that they hadn’t heard his conversation with Jiang Qiang about Luo Family earlier.
He thus became more confident.
“A secluded commercial route…”
Cultivator Ling murmured, his eyes slightly narrowed, staring at Chen Dengming.
“Let me take a look at your waist tag.”
Chen Dengming immediately did so with a smile, tossing out his waist tag.
“You are called Gao Hu?
The Business League doesn’t seem to have many cultivators with the surname Gao who have your level of strength?”
“Yes, the number is indeed limited.
I recently came from the Eastern Region.
I deal with a little business at the Bear Family’s Yulin Square.
I’m planning to return soon.
You can just call me Little Gao, Fellow Cultivator.”
“Do you know a person named Wu Hu from the Business League?”
“Wu…
Hu?
I have never heard of him.
But my cousin’s name is Lei Hu.”
“It seems you truly are a person from the Business League.
I have had dealings with this person, Thunder Tiger.”
Cultivator Ling eased his expression, returned Chen Dengming’s waist tag with a smile, and said with a wave of his hand, “It seems we had a bit of misunderstanding.
You may proceed, but don’t take that small route, just follow this road, we have claimed the pathway.”
As he said this, Cultivator Ling pointed towards a direction.
“Oh?”
Chen Dengming exclaimed in surprise, glanced in the direction he pointed out and courteously cupped his fist in salute, “Thank you for showing me the way, Fellow Cultivator.
I am obliged to follow your instructions.”
“You’re being too courteous, Friend Gao.
Goodbye!”
Cultivator Ling returned the salute with a smile.
Chen Dengming immediately gestured to Jiang Qiang and they quickly moved towards the direction pointed out by Cultivator Ling.
The three of them watched as Chen Dengming and Jiang Qiang receded further into the distance before disappearing completely into the canyon leading to the Eastern Region, only then did they look away.
“Brother Ling, why did you let both of them off so easily, and even send them in that direction?”
The two cultivators were puzzled.
Cultivator Ling sneered, “You two clearly don’t know.
Zhu Family’s people are also hiding there.
Zhu Family isn’t trusting us, so they sent people to guard that area with the excuse of supervision.
If Luo Bing escapes injured from there, they will be ready to kill her.”
“So those two…”
“Ah!” Cultivator Ling sighed and adjusted his collar in a profound manner, “This Gao Hu isn’t as simple as he seems.
If I had attacked just now, I would certainly have been able to kill them.
But if Gao Hu fights back fiercely, you both may have lost your lives.
It’s better to send them to Zhu Family.
In doing so, we won’t mess things up.
If Zhu Family wants to deal with them, let them fight amongst themselves.
If Zhu Family doesn’t deal with them, then they’re just lucky…”
The two cultivators understood and showed expressions of gratitude and admiration for Ling.
They felt that Brother Ling demonstrated both loyalty and intelligence, also taking care of their safety.

“Qiangzi, be prepared for a fierce battle.
I may not be able to look after you later.
I hope that after this, we will have a smooth path and can directly head to the Eastern Region.”
