Chapter 1270 – Sandworm Beasts
”Brother Han is less than thirty years old, isn’t he? At such an age, he has cultivated that Vajra Skill to such a level, no wonder Leader Zhang holds it in such high regard.” The blue-shirted girl asked with a smile.
”Miss Liu’er is too kind. On the contrary, although I signed the Blood Spell Instrument, I really don’t know much about the Heavenly East Merchant Company, so I wonder if the girl can introduce me to it.” Han Li smiled faintly and said this.
”It seems that Big Brother Han isn’t from our Heavenly Yuan Realm, otherwise he wouldn’t have asked such words.” Liu’er covered her mouth and laughed lightly under the flow of her eyes.
”What, is the Tian Dong Merchant Company famous in the neighborhood?” Han Li’s gaze flickered with some interest.
”Famous? Big Brother Han is really joking. Our merchant house is one of the three major merchant houses within Tianyuan, hundreds of large and small cities have our branches, and our headquarters is even located in the Tianyuan Sacred City.” The corners of the blue-shirted girl’s mouth curled up in a somewhat self-congratulatory manner.
But unfortunately, all of this just ascended to the spirit world Han Li, simply the slightest significance did not.
In his mind, hundreds of cities didn’t seem to be much, in the human realm any small country was far more than these cities. But look at this female appearance but seems to have been remarkable, I do not know is the little girl in front of the frog in the bottom of the well, or the spirit world and the human world situation is not quite the same.
Han Li’s heart was a little strange, but on his face he did not show the slightest difference, instead he nodded his head as if he did not know, ”Oh, in that case our merchant house is indeed not too small. However, I just heard a few girls discussing that the current caravan is going to An Yuan City, I wonder where this city is and how many days away it is?”
”You’re not very honest, you even eavesdropped on our sisters’ conversation.” A red-shirted maiden, who appeared to be the youngest, suddenly heckled from the sidelines.
Han Li coughed lightly, somewhat speechless.
When these girls were talking about it, the sound was so loud, where was the slightest hint of wanting to avoid it.
”Chyuan’er don’t be rude. Brother Han don’t be offended, Chyuan’er is a bit young and actually doesn’t have any malicious intent.” The blue-shirted maiden reprimanded the red-shirted maiden and apologized.
In this woman’s mind, although Han Li was a newcomer to the Heavenly East Merchant Company, but with such a high level of body refining skill at such a young age, he would surely be heavily utilized by the company in the future.
Naturally, she didn’t want her sisters to cross paths with the man in front of her.
Han Li smiled at his words and was about to open his mouth to say something when all of a sudden the carriage shook slightly and the giant turtle unexpectedly stopped.
This time the blue-shirted girl was stunned, but then immediately reacted with a cry, “Uncle Wang, what happened?”
”Several girls, the Red Spirit Sparrow in front has discovered a group of Sandworm Beasts that seem to be eyeing the caravan.” The caravan-like old man sitting outside the carriage replied.
”Just some Sandworm Beasts, they only act on instinct, just send some people to drive them away. Why bother stopping the caravan, we are already a bit late in our journey.” The blue-shirted girl became a little dissatisfied.
”But there is a low-priced bug demon among these bug beasts that has tentatively opened its spirit. If we don’t kill it, I’m afraid we’ll be in big trouble.” The old man let out a bitter smile.
”A low-grade bug demon, that’s a bit tricky. But Leader Zhang’s Tiger Fighter Technique has also cultivated to the fifth layer, right? In that case, in conjunction with the Golden Ying Sword Spiritual Tool that Madam personally bestowed, it won’t be a problem to deal with this demon.” The blue-shirted girl said without thinking.
”What Miss Liu’er said is true, it’s just that there are still a few mutated bug beasts beside this bug demon, so I’m afraid it’s still a bit risky for Leader Zhang and the others to deal with it.” The old man outside the carriage paused for a moment, then hesitantly said.
”Mutated bug beasts! That could be a bit dangerous. However, isn’t there still a few Immortal Cultivators in the caravan, Daoist Nanqizi. Let them strike down.” The blue-shirted maiden pondered for a moment and her tone changed to a softer one.
”Leader Zhang has already requested it, but it was rejected. Several of the Taoist Masters are all cultivators from the hill mountain peaks, and they are unwilling to make a move before the bug beasts take the initiative to attack them.” The old man sighed and said so.
”So troublesome. I told you long ago, don’t hire these cultivators from the hill mountain peak, they have the most restrictions and rules.” The red-shirted girl’s nose wrinkled, a little unhappy.
”It’s not their fault, Daoist Nanqizi. Originally, most of the hill mountain peak cultivators practiced insect repelling aptitude, and they didn’t have so many scruples when dealing with other kinds of demonic beasts, and it was an accident that they ran into the insect beasts. Let’s do it this way, before Madam left, she gave that thing to me to control temporarily. I’ll let it out to help Leader Zhang. You tell him first, and I’ll head out right away.” Liu’er was silent for a moment, and her complexion became grave.
”There’s naturally no problem dealing with bug beasts if that thing is there.” The old man outside the carriage seemed to be relieved when he heard this from the blue-shirted girl.
”Sister Liu’er, do you really want to let that thing out? In case something happens, Madam is afraid that she will chastise you.” Xiang’er, however, was a bit worried.
”Don’t worry, that thing has been domesticated by Madam for so many years, it already has some spirituality. It’s the one that won’t be at a disadvantage against low level demonic beasts, and it’s absolutely no problem to use it to deal with a few mutated bug beasts.” The blue-shirted girl, however, smiled and said with confidence.
Then the person pushed open the door of the carriage and walked out.
”I’m a little less assured, I need to go over and take a look.” The young red-shirted maiden bit her lip and with a flash of her figure, she actually followed her out.
Xiang’er and the last white shirted girl looked at each other and smiled bitterly, the two of them had a heartfelt feeling and didn’t say anything, but under the light lotus step, they also walked out of the carriage together.
In the blink of an eye, the large carriage was left with Han Li alone.
He sat on a chair and looked at the half-covered door of the carriage, but his eyes narrowed in a pensive expression.
A few moments later, an ear-piercing tiger roar came from nearby, the sound filled with a bloodthirsty tyrannical intent.
Han Li’s expression moved, and under a flash of his gaze, he slowly stood up and walked towards the door.
Gently pushing the car door, Han Li unhurriedly walked outside the carriage and stood at the edge of the giant turtle, raising his head to look around.
Under the bright moonlight of the seven clusters in the air, Han Li could see everything in the vicinity clearly.
The entire caravan meanders and twists, enough miles long, every distance there is a giant beast like the giant tortoise under the feet, there are more than thirty.
Most of the giant tortoises all bulging on the back, carrying a volume not less than the giant tortoise itself huge cargo box, and each giant tortoise body are four or five dressed in various types of armor, holding weapons of the strong man, at the same time in the two sides there are a number of riding a giant wolf rider back and forth patrol, a look of strict vigilance.
However, all of this is not as interesting as what is next to a giant turtle not far away, allowing Han Li to be more interested.
Beside the giant turtle, a bunch of people had surrounded it, among them the Nanqi Zi, the scar-faced man, and the four young girls such as Liu’er, who were also standing there.
In the middle of this group of people, there was a two feet high quadrilateral object, wrapped in an oily glowing black cloth. And from inside that black cloth, a low beastly roar was faintly heard.
This cloth surface runic flashes, surprisingly is still a low-grade magic weapon.
At this time, it was seen that the blue-shirted girl was holding a token in her hand, and was spewing out a piece of blue haze, as if she was casting spells.
To Han Li with spirit liquid cleaned spirit eyes, even so far apart, still as close at hand, a glance to see in this young girl wrist with a turquoise bracelet, above inlaid with a number of tiny spirit stone, glittering.
See here, Han Li color a movement, revealing a thoughtful expression.
It seems that this so-called “spirit tool”, it seems to be necessary to first use another thing under the excitement, before allowing mortals to use. Since it is set with a spirit stone, then surely the spirit stone in the aura once depleted, this spirit tool will lose its usefulness.
Han Li is secretly guessing when, that piece of black cloth in sucked enough of a certain number of blue light, suddenly turned into a piece of black smoke collapsed and disappeared, revealing a beautiful silver-white beast cage.
Inside the cage, there was a crimson tiger-shaped beast, lying on its back.
This tiger beast from the appearance, in addition to the body fur bright red like blood, and ordinary tigers have no difference, but the surrounding people look at the eyes of this beast, but can not help but with a hint of fear.
The beast saw outside the cage is still standing so many people, eyes fierce light flashed, suddenly without the slightest sign of fierce scurry, the body shape ruthlessly hit the cage frame, so that the whole cage a burst of chaotic shaking.
Surrounded by people, face changed, all can not help but retreat two steps.
Blue shirt girl lightly inhaled a breath, but will be in the hands of the token once again raised, and then the token only flooded with crimson blood to.
Strange to say, that tiger beast a see this red light, suddenly vicious phase all go, immediately honestly lying in the beast cage no longer move.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Kui and other people immediately heart a relief.
Just at this moment, suddenly from the air came a few clear chirping sounds of birds, chirping sometimes tightly and sometimes slowly, seems to be transmitting what information.
”Those bug beasts have increased their speed and have already surrounded us. Everyone prepare for battle immediately, surround the cars all in a circle, just hold fast and don’t take the initiative. Just wait for me to lead the people to kill that low level bug demon. These bug beasts don’t have a spirit, as long as the bug demon dies, they will disperse on their own.” Under the tightening of Zhang Kui’s face, he hurriedly shouted.
As soon as these words were uttered, there was a commotion throughout the entire caravan.
The middle part didn’t move, the giant turtles at the front and at the end immediately drew closer to the center, the guards on the car also had to light up their blades, and the knights riding the giant wolves on both sides quickly converged on the center.
While the blue-shirted maiden gave an order, one person went forward and opened that beast cage, releasing the tiger beast.
”Little brother Han, your body hasn’t recovered yet, so it’s safer for you to return to the carriage. Those sandworm beasts aren’t good at jumping, and the carriage is made using sunken ironwood, so there won’t be any major problems for a while in there.” The old man sitting at the front end of the giant tortoise driving the car turned around and grinned at Han Li before saying.
”Thank you for your kindness, but I’ve never seen a Sandworm Beast before and would like to see what it looks like. If it’s truly dangerous, I’ll return to the vehicle myself.” Han Li let out a light laugh and lightly replied.
