Chapter 568: Swatting Flies
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Yan wasn’t in a hurry to leave. There were more than ten large carriages in the caravan, and they were pulling another kind of creature that was larger.
Apart from most of the carriages that carried people or stockpiled goods, two of them attracted Lin Yan’s attention.
One was covered in black cloth, and there were occasional strange sounds coming from inside.
The other was a prison wagon. There were five eight-year-old children in it, including three boys and two girls. Their cheeks were dirty as they clung to the wooden fence of the prison wagon. Their eyes were bright as they looked out curiously.
“They don’t seem to be deformed either, do they?”
On the road.
Guo Rong protected Guo Xiaomi and tried his best to maintain his composure. “Move away!”
On the opposite side, the caravan that surrounded him was led by two men on horses. One of them had long arms that reached his knees, and a circle of mangy hair on the back of his head. A few strands of hair surrounded him, making him partially bald.
The other person’s upper body was as big as four or five people’s, but his legs were very thin, like two chopsticks stuck in an apple. He pressed down on the horse until it bowed slightly.
The bald man glanced greedily at Xiaomi, who was behind Guo Rong.
“Old Guo, don’t be so polite. We’re old classmates. It’s fate that we met here.”
“Hmph, there’s no fate between us.”
“Fine, you still hate me? You’re still as petty as before.”
Guo Rong clenched his fists and endured it.
There was a hint of disdain in the bald man’s eyes.
“Old Guo, you’re quite lucky. This little girl has such good looks. Where did you get her?”
“None of your business!”
Guo Rong reached out and grabbed the reins of the carriage, still protecting Xiaomi with one hand.
“How about we make a deal? For 500 gold dollars, I’ll buy this little girl!”
The bald man smiled and said, “Even if you bring her to the prefecture capital, you can only sell her for 1,000 gold coins. It will be a complicated journey. Who knows, she might be robbed halfway…”
Guo Rong was smiling, but his expression changed.
“Yu An! You’re threatening me!”
“No, no. I really want to buy her.”
Bald Yu An pointed behind him. “Do you see that? With such a large caravan, we are not going to the prefecture capital, but to the royal capital!”
He waved his hand, and someone behind him lifted the carriage covered by the black cloth.
Squeak,squeak, squeak!
There was also a Scavenger inside!
As soon as it saw the light, it immediately bumped left and right in a panic, causing the entire prison cart to shake.
The servant quickly covered the black cloth again.
“The Scavenger that’s worth a hundred gold dollars is ready.”
He deliberately pointed at the five children in the prison cart.
“I have five people of your girl’s quality. Do you see that? Together with yours, they can form a lucky six. Name a price. How much are you willing to sell her for?”
Guo Rong said coldly, “No!”
“Not for sale? What about 600 gold dollars?”
“I’m not selling!”
“700…”
“No means no! I want to go to the royal capital too!”
“You’re going to the World Expo too?”
Yu An narrowed his eyes and rubbed the lumps on his head in distress.
“Old Guo, I’m talking to you nicely, but you won’t listen. 1 really don’t know what to do with you… Old Yu!”
He waved his hand and the muscular man beside him patted the back of the horse. He leaped down and pounced at Guo Rong!
Guo Rong’s expression changed drastically. “Xiaomi, stay away!”
He twisted his body and collided with Old Yu!
As soon as they came into contact, Guo Rong’s expression changed drastically.
The other party was much stronger than him!
As soon as they started fighting, he was suppressed!
Guo Rong immediately shouted, “Sir! Help!”
“Why didn’t you show some respect earlier? It’s too late to shout now!”
Yu An thought he was calling him.
He sneered, got off the horse, and slowly walked towards Guo Xiaomi.
“This quality is really not bad. Six of them are a perfect set. It will definitely help me shine at the World Expo…”
Suddenly, a huge black shadow suddenly flew over from the side and crashed into Yu An!
Yu An’s expression froze as he raised his palm and slapped out.
BANG!
A hard feeling made his expression even more solemn. A huge force attacked him, causing him to roll over and retreat.
Squeak,squeak, squeak!
The huge black shadow hissed in pain. It was actually a tank-like Scavenger!
It was even bigger than the one his caravan had brought!
“Someone’s here!”
Lin Yan slowly walked to Xiaomi’s side.
Yu An narrowed his eyes and sized up Lin Yan. “Who are you?”
Lin Yan did not answer.
As the Scavenger’s armor was hard, it wasn’t injured much from the previous strike. Now that it saw Lin Yan come out, it frantically began to dig the ground, hoping to escape.
Lin Yan had no choice but to take a few more steps forward. He grabbed the Scavenger’s carapace again and pulled it out of the ground.
The Scavenger struggled and hissed in grief and indignation, but it was useless.
Lin Yan glared at him, and the savage aura from the Azure Dragon trembled. “Stay here obediently!”
The Scavenger’s body stiffened, and then it lay on the ground lifelessly.
On the other side, Guo Rong and Old Yu also stopped moving. Guo Rong quickly retreated to Xiaomi’s side and hugged her tightly.
“Old Guo, you’re different from when you were in school. You know how to find a backer now… Huh?”
Only when he took a closer look did he notice that there didn’t seem to be any abnormalities on Lin Yan’s body!
Yu An carefully sized up Lin Yan. After confirming that he did not see any abnormalities, his eyes instantly became extremely greedy!
This guy had actually reached adulthood without any martial arts characteristics!
It was extremely rare!
For example, ten-year-old children with no martial arts characteristics could occasionally be found. They were not especially rare.
However, as these children grew older, their martial arts characteristics would slowly appear and they would become normal.
He had never heard of an adult who could maintain a flawless body without any martial arts characteristics!
If such goods were brought to the World Expo, not only would they become famous overnight, but this guy would also be sold for an astronomical price!
Yu An’s eyes swept over the group of people around him. All of them had a greedy look on their faces as they moved quickly, surrounding the two of them.
Guo Rong smiled coldly. “Yu An, what are you trying to do?”
Yu An said disdainfully, “Old classmate, don’t pretend to be virtuous. Where did you get such a person?”
“I’m warning you, Yu An. You have no idea how powerful this lord is! If you act rashly, no one can save you!”
“Powerful? Being able to tame a Scavenger is considered powerful? Hahahaha!” Yu An laughed wildly. “Do you still think you’re a genius of the academy?
You’ve really stayed in a small place for too long. Your horizons are narrow… Attack!”
Old Yu and Yu An jumped towards Lin Yan at the same time!
The surrounding people on the side targeted Guo Rong.
“Don’t hurt him!”
The battle was on the verge of breaking out!
Lin Yan:”…”
Troublesome!
With a slam of his palm, the lifeless Scavenger that was lying on the ground suddenly squeaked crazily as it was lifted up in the air!
Pa!
The huge body of the Scavenger turned into a huge fly swatter.. It slapped Yu An and Old Yu to the ground like it was swatting a fly!
