Otherworldly-Cultivator

Chapter 248 First Encounter

"Phew." Chen Li heaved a sigh of relief after he got the notification. However, just as he was about to check the reward, he smelled a strong smell of blood from a distance, and he could also hear several people fighting intensely.

Xiao Kong'er then told him. [Little Master, their battle is not far from you, but you must be careful if you wish to witness their battle.]

"Uh, I know." Chen Li then used the Void Tunnel and went to the battle area, but he only watched their battle from inside the void.

At that place, Chen Li saw a horse carriage guarded by three remaining guards, one of whom was an old man, and many of their friends were already dead. On top of the carriage, he saw a golden plaque, and he thought that the person inside must have come from a prestigious family.

Besides, Chen Li also saw a few corpses of black-clothed people, and he could feel that the black-clothed person standing on the tree was very strong.

Xiao Kong'er suddenly appeared beside Chen Li. "Little Master! Those people in black are assassins, and the person standing on the tree is definitely their leader; his cultivation is in the 1st Stage Heaven Realm."

"1st Stage Heaven Realm?" Chen Li was utterly shocked to hear that, for that person's cultivation base was two major stages above his.

Xiao Kong'er nodded and explained it to him again. "Yes! If you're not careful, he can kill you before you have a chance to blink. As for that old man, his cultivation is at the Peak Stage Earth Realm. Even though their cultivations were only one level apart, the difference between cultivators in the Earth and Heaven Realms was huge. If they continue fighting, they will die at his hands." contemporary romance

Chen Li nodded in understanding. "Anyway, I'm really curious about their fight."

"Well, you can watch their fight from up here, so the assassin leader won't notice you."

"I know." Chen Li nodded in understanding.

"Heh! You just have to hand over that woman to me, and I'll let you guys live." The assassin's leader spoke from the top of the tree.

"Keep on dreaming!" The old man shouted at him. "Even if I have to die, I will never hand over my young miss to you."

Hearing that, Chen Li, who was in the void, used his Divine God Eyes to peek inside the carriage. Instantly, he was captivated by the young woman who was anxiously waiting inside.

Seeing that, Xiao Kong'er immediately teased him, for she knew that the white-haired woman was very beautiful.

The leader gave a signal to his subordinates to finish them off, but the old man suddenly released his Qi and attacked the assassin. Besides, the two remaining guards also joined them, and their fight was quite fierce.

Even so, the three guards managed to kill the assassins, and their positions were now reversed to three against one. However, they couldn't feel relieved yet since the leader was much stronger than them.

"Now you are the only one left!" The old man spoke as he glared at him.

"Heh! With your cultivation below mine, do you really think you can kill me?" The leader mocked the old man, and two daggers appeared in his hands.

Without waiting any longer, the leader immediately attacked the three guards, but the old man pushed the two guards away, and he immediately attacked his enemy.

Just as Xiao Kong'er said before, even though their cultivation levels were only one level apart, the old man was completely overwhelmed by having to face the assassin's leader. He continued to be cornered by his attacks, and his body became more and more covered in wounds with each passing second.

'Damn it! I can't die in this place! If I die, young Miss will fall into his hands, and I can't let that happen.' The old man spoke in his heart as he continued to dodge and counterattack the assassin leader, but his attacks were really fast, which made it even more difficult for him to avoid them, especially since the wounds on his body caused his movements to be slow.

"Hahaha! Your resistance is futile! I will kill you all, and I will bring your young miss to my boss." The leader laughed loudly as he increased the intensity of his attacks. He then reached behind his waist and took out a secret weapon, which he immediately threw at the old man.

However, the assassin leader's secret weapon didn't hit the old man, and it just disappeared, shocking them all.

"Come out! Who dares disturb me from carrying out my duties?" The assassin's leader shouted loudly as he turned around to look at the area around them.

On the other hand, the old man felt relieved by that, for he was sure he would definitely die if the assassin leader's secret weapon hit him, especially since he could see the poison on it. However, he was also confused by it, especially since he couldn't detect other people's presence.

The old man was startled when a voice transmission entered his mind at that precise moment. Not only he, but the other two guards and the young miss were also surprised by that. 'Close your senses of hearing right now, or you will feel very dizzy and nauseous when I do something against that assassin leader.'

Even though they felt confused by that, they still followed Chen Li's words, and they immediately closed their senses of hearing.

"Damn it! Coward! Come out now!" The assassin leader continued to shout in annoyance, but he immediately turned around to attack the old man again.

However, Chen Li, who was already in his humanoid dragon form, directly stepped out of the void, a bit away from them. He immediately used the dragon breath towards the assassin leader, but he was stunned because the golden flames that were coming out of his mouth were very small.

Xiao Kong'er, who was beside him, directly covered her mouth to suppress her laughter, for Chen Li's dragon breath was too weak for a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. Even so, his attack was also accompanied by dragon force, and it was enough to shake the assassin leader's mind and soul.

"Shit!" Seeing that, the assassin leader immediately tried to ward off Chen Li's golden flames, but the effect of his dragon force instantly took effect, which made his head hurt very much.

Chen Li's golden flames directly hit his chest and caused him to fall backwards, plus they immediately spread all over his body and burned him. "Argh!"

The old man and the two guards were shocked to see that. They then turned to Chen Li, who was standing in the distance, but he had already returned to his human form because he didn't want them to see his humanoid dragon form.

Without thinking twice, the old man immediately moved towards the assassin leader, and he immediately thrust his sword into his chest.

"Gah!" The old man's attack caused even more suffering for the assassin leader, who was already in excruciating pain due to Chen Li's golden flames burning his body. Before long, he breathed his last breath, and the golden flames continued to burn his body to ashes.

The old man then looked at Chen Li and cupped his hand toward him. "Thank you for your help, young master. If it wasn't for you, my young miss would have fallen into his hands by now."

"No problem, Uncle. Coincidentally, I was training in this forest, and I heard your fight, so I came to take a look." Chen Li then turned around to leave. "Since those assassins are dead, I will return to my place right now."

"Wait, young master!" the old man shouted to him. "Please, tell me your name; my old master will definitely reward you handsomely."

Chen Li stopped for a moment and pointed towards the river. "There's a river there, and I'm camping there. After you clear this area, you can go there to clean yourself."

After he said that, Chen Li immediately used the Void Tunnel, and he went straight back to their camp. On the other hand, Xiao Kong'er immediately entered the Tianyi?Realm again, for the situation was already safe.

The old man was stunned for a moment after he saw that. "That young man's cultivation is only at the 1st Stage of Soul Realm, but his golden flames are extremely terrifying, and his movements are also extremely fast."

"Uncle Meng, did that man tell you his identity? I want to thank him." Suddenly, the young miss asked from inside the carriage.

The old man directly ordered the two guards to bury their dead comrades, and he immediately answered her question. "Young Miss, he won't tell me his name, but he's camping at the river not far from here."

"In that case, after they finish burying the fallen, we will go to the river directly, and I want to thank him in person." The woman spoke in her melodious voice.

The old man nodded. "All right, we will go see him after this, for I am also curious about the young man's strength."

"Oh? That person is a young man?" The young miss asked in surprise. Since she previously closed her sense of hearing, she did not hear Chen Li's voice.

As soon as Chen Li arrived at their camp, Feng Xian'er chuckled and teasingly asked him. "Did you save her because she's so beautiful, Hubby?"
