Even a fool would not have believed Ye Mo’s words!

Zhan Jun looked at Ye Mo with an expression filled with hatred – the goddess that he protected with his heart had been violated by Ye Mo just like that, and in this kind of environment!

He was self-conscious about having no right to woo Xiao Cao, but Ye Mo did not have any right either. While he may have displayed strong powers, he was nothing compared to Young Master Cao.

The Young Master Cao that they were speaking of was Cao Zheng, the son of Cao Zhengchun, who controlled the kingdom’s imperial guards. Reaching the True Energy Realm at the age of 20, he was a rare talent in the Heaven’s Wall City.

Reaching the True Energy Realm from Energy Shaping Realm was a true obstacle.

Some talents reached Energy Shaping Ninth Realm at young ages, only to continue stagnating in the realm, unable to make a breakthrough until their eventual death.

Reaching the True Energy Realm was another world altogether!

“Ye Mo, it was all thanks to you this time!”

Manager Qi’s eyebrows twitched. While the previous scene could have easily misled others, his experience told him that there was no way that something between those two would have happened while Xiao Cao was ill with the fire poison.

“This is my mission, and Xiao Cao is my girl. I will protect her safety at all cost. The fire poison inside her body has already been removed via a more thorough removal process this time. It may return in two months’ time,” said Ye Mo.

“Two more months before it returns?” Manager Qi said, surprised. “Even elites of the Heaven’s Strength Realm could not control the fire poison with this level of success.”

“Indeed. However, to control Xiao Cao’s fire poison, another plan is required. Our current plan fixes the problem temporarily but does not target the root of the problem. Since we have defeated the Cao Family, they should not be coming back. Escort team, continue to patrol, and carriage riders, rest. We will be leaving early in the morning tomorrow,” said Ye Mo.

The tent was set up once again, and after Ye Mo and Xiao Cao exchanged a few words, she went to sleep. Ye Mo jumped onto a big tree and leaned against it to rest.

It had already reached midnight and the sky had already grown dark. Even the monsters were slowly entering their slumber as the Forest of Fog plunged into silence.

More than 10 fighters remained awake, taking turns to guard their camp.

Just like that, a night passed by.

As the first rays of sunlight shot down, Ye Mo opened his eyes and woke up. The carriage riders also woke up early.

After an hour, the carriage team continued its journey.

The journey towards Heaven’s Wall City spanned across two regions; their passage crossed five cities within at least three days’ worth of travelling.

During the journey, the carriage faced robbers during four different encounters, some in the forest, and some in the valleys. However, these robbers’ strength levels were average, and the escort team finished them off easily.

As for some of the robbers, the moment they showed their faces and saw that it was the Qi Clan carriage, they immediately turned in the other direction and escaped.

The carriage once again departed from another city. Looking around, there were multiple roads that each led towards a different path.

Ye Mo took out the map to take a look and nodded his head.

By the looks of it, it would just take another day to arrive at the Imperial Heaven’s Wall City.

“Ye Mo, after we pass by the canyon ahead, we will be able to reach the Heaven’s Wall City after another day of traveling,” Manager Qi said as he saw Ye Mo take out the map.

Ye Mo nodded, and the carriage continued moving, entering the canyon.

Inside the canyon, the air was clear and chilly, giving off a refreshing feeling.

Suddenly, the strong stench of blade washed over the entire team. Ye Mo signaled for the carriage to halt as he jumped onto the mountain peak and looked on, only to see a pair of bandits with huge cleavers in hand, burning, killing, robbing, and raping a small village.

Small villages like this one were not under the management of the city, which meant that the villagers were almost completely defenseless. They were all normal villagers with no training. There was no way that they could resist against the bandits.

This village was not considered hidden, but it was in a fantastic location. It was extremely unfortunate that it had caught the attention of the bandits.

“Brother Hu, lead the carriage team and continue on your way. Something happened over there, so I’m gooing to take a look first!”

Brother Hu was the strongest fighter within the escort team.

As he finished speaking, Ye Mo burst forward in the village’s direction. Seeing this sight, any man with a bit of humanity would not be able to watch on.

“Hahaha!”

A team of bandits rode out of the village. Everyone in the group rode a white horse. Each of them had a naked lady in their arms as they teased them and fondled their bodies.

These women pleaded and begged for mercy, but these bandits did not have a shred of sympathy. Their laughs became even louder.

“A bunch of imbeciles!” Ye Mo scolded them angrily in his heart. Just as he was about to make his move, he saw a shadow flash by. It was that of an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm youngster clad in Tiandi League’s attire. His appearance was delicate and proper, and he held a long sword in his hand. A pair of giant purple wings expanded on his back, drawing out a perfect arc in the air, directly blocking the path of the bandits.

“Who are you?”

The bandits at the front noticed the teenager league member and pointed their long swords at him as energy was channeled towards the body of the weapon. With the sword body giving off a buzzing noise, the energy force above the sword pierced through the air and struck towards the teenage league member.

By the looks of it, the bandits were in the Energy Shaping Sixth Realm. Energy Shaping Sixth Realm fighters were not considered weak in the Tianwu Kingdom – how dare he come to a place like this to commit these sinful acts?

“I am Lin Kunyuan, league member of the Tiandi League. I received a mission from the league to come here and execute all of you to preserve the safety of these people!”

With a swipe of his long sword, the young league member instantly caused the sword aura to vanish as it zoned in on him. Following that, he struck his sword again. As a light blade flashed by, the leader’s head dropped from his body.

As the dead bandit dropped to the ground, the others behind him roared loudly, all brandishing their weapons as they attacked towards the young league member. “Enemy attack! Brothers, he has killed our second-in-command! Kill him!”

These bandits were all in the Energy Shaping Fourth and Fifth Realm, reaching the level of strengthened bodies.

While they were bandits, they were still trained by the military. They immediately took out their bows and aimed them at the league member.

Their bows were a magical weapon that could be amplified with energy, an extremely powerful weapon.

In a blink of an eye, cutting noises could be heard and tens of arrows pierced through the air, their powers capable of striking through the body of an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm monster.

Had an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm fighter bumped into these bandits, a sneak attack by theses bows and arrows guaranteed death. However, they were fighting against a member from the Tiandi League.

The young league member struck out his sword again, and a light blade erupted, causing a moment of violent trembling as the arrows were instantly stopped in mid-air.

Following that, another sword strike from the league member sent all those arrows back at the bandits at a speed that was many times faster than when they was shot out. Unable to block the attack, the bandits let out multiple pained screams as all of them dropped down from their white horses, instantly dead. As for the naked ladies, all of them froze in shock.
