Chapter 1276: Chapter 117: Mysterious Iron Bursting Arrow
Kino nodded continuously, saying, "Okay, okay, I will definitely listen to you. Just don’t let me go back to the teacher."
Ah Dai looked at Xuan Yue, hesitantly saying, "Really? Can we take him? All three of you are magicians, and if we encounter danger in the Death Mountain Range, I fear I can’t take care of everyone."
Xuan Yue smiled and said, "Don’t worry, we don’t need your care. I have Phoenix’s Blood to protect me, and their magic level is not weak; nothing will happen."
Ah Dai helplessly replied, "Alright then, Kino, you will travel with us. We are now heading to the Red Charming Clan."
Kino jumped up excitedly, "I am finally free, finally free, this is great." His excitement caught the attention of pass onlookers, and the appearance of four magicians on the main road indeed caused surprise. Olivia quickly grabbed Kino, whispering, "Let’s leave this place first. Brother, you surely also want to consult our teachers on magic, don’t you?" Kino’s level of magic, which he had seen that day, was even higher than his.
Kino shook his head vigorously and said, "I have just been liberated, I don’t want to practice anymore! Let’s go. By the way, I still don’t know your names. How should I address you?"
Xuan Yue told Kino their names and ages, and amongst the four, it turned out that Kino was the oldest, being twenty-five years old this year.
The four headed towards the city gate. Ah Dai still couldn’t shake off Di Ya’s resentful gaze before going upstairs, and he worriedly didn’t want to provoke a confrontation with the Yajin Tribe; he just wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
At the East City Gate, people bustled in and out non-stop without a hint of anything unusual. Ah Dai couldn’t help but feel relieved, glanced at the other three, Xuan Yue walked beside him silently, Olivia was ignored by Kino since he didn’t like to study magic followed by himself, and Kino, who still hadn’t recovered from the excitement of leaving Larthas, had a silly smile on his face, very happy. All four were dressed as magicians, including wind, fire, and light types, and Ah Dai suddenly thought that with the combined strength of the four, even if a Sword Saint came personally, they might not be able to handle them, which was the first time he felt fully confident about heading towards the Death Mountain Range.
"Stop right there, you think you can just run away that easily?" An irate voice rang out. Ah Dai looked up to see that they had reached the city gate, but the one who spoke was a tall Yajin Tribe Leader, fully enclosed in heavy armor, blocking their way. The helmet concealed his face, making it impossible for Ah Dai to recognize his identity. "Are you talking to us?" Ah Dai asked, puzzled, not recognizing any officials or soldiers.
The leader snorted angrily and said, "Who else other than you? Brothers, come out, this is the same guy who insulted the Clan Leader." His voice sounded somewhat familiar to Xuan Yue, who suddenly realized and laughed, "I was wondering who it was, turns out to be the big gorilla with no fur! I’d recognize you even with that shell on."
Indeed, the person was the Samurai named Larthas who had his hair magically shaved off by Ah Dai. After Ah Dai and the others left, Di Ya, burning with resentment, ordered him to intercept Ah Dai and bring them back so she could vent her anger. Larthas, hating Ah Dai to the bone, immediately left the Golden Jade Building upon the command. Impulsive but not reckless, he knew well that Ah Dai was not someone he could handle. He ordered his Guards to quickly mobilize a large number of people from the Clan Leader’s Mansion. Because of Kino’s delay, they were finally caught at the city gate.
Over a hundred vividly armored warriors surrounded them, all in the same attire as Larthas and Di Ya’s skilled Guards, each holding a Long Spear, aggressively encircling Ah Dai and his group. The soldiers originally stationed at the gates had closed them tightly, stopping all entry and exit. Seeing trouble, the surrounding civilians quickly moved away, clearing the area around the East City Gate in a matter of kilometers.
Kino, unaware of the previous events, saw the soldiers encircling them and turned to ask Ah Dai, "Brother, what’s going on? Why won’t they let us leave the city?"
Olivia answered Kino’s question for Ah Dai with a hint of annoyance, "They’re just making trouble because they have nothing better to do."
Ah Dai frowned; he hadn’t expected that they would still fail to leave Andis City smoothly. He addressed Larthas, "What do you want? The previous incident was just a misunderstanding. Why do you keep pressing on this matter?" Even in such a situation, he was still making a last effort, not wishing to fight.
Xuan Yue was not as easygoing as Ah Dai. Earlier, when Di Ya wanted to eat two seal pups, she was already very angry. Now seeing Larthas come to capture them, her rage soared. She snorted coldly, and a golden holy light enveloped her, radiating angrily, "Want to die? That’s easy. You think these few people can hold us?"
Ah Dai was startled by Xuan Yue’s murderous aura and quickly said, "Brother, don’t just kill people."
Xuan Yue angrily replied, "If no one offends me, I won’t offend anyone. They think we’re easy to bully. I’ll show them some true colors. What’s wrong with killing? They brought it upon themselves."
