Chapter 649: Kill him!
"Brother Mu, this decision is inappropriate."
Xiahou Tie immediately rejected Ye Mu's proposal, "We are walking on the official road, and they don't dare to deal with us openly."
"You mean... once we enter the trail, they will actively attack us?" Ye Mu was slightly stunned.
"good."
Xiahou Tie said shrewdly, "Only if they attack us first can we destroy them all at any cost."
"Young Master Xiahou, according to my investigation, they have a team of at least fifteen people, at least five of whom are at the Void Realm." Qiu Jicheng stepped forward at this time.
"No problem."
Xiahou Tie smiled mysteriously, "As long as we can lead them into the small path, I have a way to destroy them all!"
Ye Mu and others were greatly surprised when they heard this.
But in a moment, Ye Mu suddenly smiled.
Xiahou Tie comes from a weapon-making family. With thousands of years of inheritance, it is natural that he has some unexpected magic weapons to protect himself.
"Then let's go." Ye Mu gradually felt relieved.
However, he always kept his mind focused, detecting the hidden auras nearby.
When his cultivation reached the Void Realm, he had a vague understanding of the laws of the world. As long as he thought about it, he would know everything that happened within a radius of 100 meters.
Everyone continued on their way.
Qiu Jicheng and Xiahou family's guard Yan Jing and others also chatted and got to know each other on the way.
About two hours later.
"Master, there's a post station ahead. Why don't we take a break and eat before setting off again?" Yan Jing leaned against the carriage and said carefully, "This is the last post station on the official road. In another half an hour's journey, we will turn onto the road to Longhu Mountain. Then..."
"Okay." Xiahou Tie responded.
Soon, a group of people entered the post station.
Inside the post station, several groups of passing merchants were having a meal and they did not pay much attention to the arrival of Xiahou Tie, Ye Mu and his party.
Correspondingly, Xiahou Tie and Ye Mu did not worry about this wave of passing merchants.
Both sides ate on their own, and after lunch, everything was calm.
But just as Ye Mu and Xiahou Tie were about to leave, a passing merchant happened to come in. After entering the door, he smiled and asked loudly, "Excuse me, who is from the Xiahou family?"
All of a sudden, everyone in the Xiahou family saw the person coming.
This is a fifty-year-old man. Behind him walked in another old man and a graceful woman.
However, the old man and the young man, one wearing a black robe and the other wearing a white robe, both had their heads covered by the robes and their faces were not shown to the public.
"What's up?"
Yan Jing, the guard of the Xiahou family, stared solemnly at the fifty-year-old man.
"To be honest, we were just passing by here, and suddenly saw the words 'Xiahou' on the carriage, so we became particularly interested and wanted to make friends with him. May I ask, who is your master?" the fifty-year-old man asked with a smile.
"Why don't you introduce yourselves?" Yan Jing's eyes were cold and expressionless.
"Haha, we are just passers-by, with ordinary backgrounds and no reputation, so it's better not to tell us." The fifty-year-old man shook his head and smiled, his eyes focused on Ye Mu and Xiahou Tie.
"That's outrageous!"
Yan Jing couldn't help but get furious. He wanted to make friends with their master without even introducing himself?
absurd!
"Leave."
In order to conceal Xiahou Tie's identity, Ye Mu stood up and greeted Yan Jing.
Before they are sure of each other's identity, they cannot be sure whether the other party is an enemy or a friend.
At least from now on, the other party is not sincere enough, so Ye Mu put these two old men and one young man on the blacklist.
“Wait!”
However, at this moment, the old man who had remained silent all this time, accompanied by the young woman beside him, walked towards them and said with a smile, "I guess this is the young master of the Xiahou family?"
"Set off."
Ye Mu did not give the other party a good look.
He felt more and more that these two old men and one young boy had come with ill intentions!
If you want to make friends, be straightforward and sincere!
He was very annoyed by the fact that he hid his true face under the robe and spoke in a self-centered tone.
At Ye Mu's call, everyone, including Xiahou Tie, stood up and walked towards the door.
“Hehehe!”
The old man in the black robe suddenly looked up and smiled.
The woman next to him had a complicated look in her eyes.
The fifty-year-old man followed Ye Mu and others out.
"Everyone, we have no ill intentions. We just want to make friends with the young master of the Xiahou family in a low-key manner, and then we will go to Zhongshan City, and we can have your company on the way." The fifty-year-old man said loudly.
However, Ye Mu and his group did not answer at all.
After they got on the carriage, they headed forward as planned.
"Brother Mu, what do you think of the identities of those three people?" Xiahou Tie's face was full of doubt.
"The way you talk is so vague and insincere, I'd rather not make friends with you." Ye Mu said bluntly, "Actually, I'm from another region and I'm not familiar with their attire. You're a local, so you should know better than me."
"Judging from the carriage they were riding in, they seem to be the county magistrates appointed by Zhou Jin in the Eastern Region, members of the Wu family." Xiahou Tie said solemnly.
"The county magistrate is higher than the Duke of Donghuang, right?" Ye Mu raised his eyebrows.
"good."
Xiahou Tie explained, "During the previous dynasty of the Ji family, there were only four princes. After Zhou Jin changed the dynasty, there were four more county governors."
"Zhou Jin wants to control his power through mutual restraint." Ye Mu nodded.
"So, to put it bluntly, the Wu family is in cahoots with Zhou Jin. We can't anger them openly, but we can't give in to them too much either." Xiahou Tie said with a sigh of relief.
Ye Mu smiled and said, "Doesn't that mean that those who have been following us before are not from Zhou Jin's guards, but from the county governor Wu family?"
"Maybe it's true." Xiahou Tie raised his eyebrows again.
Ye Mu pondered in silence.
Sensing the atmosphere nearby, the group of people who had been following them were still a hundred meters away from them.
"Young Master, we are about to leave the official road and enter the small road. In two more hours, we will reach Longhu Mountain." At this time, Xiahou family guard Yan Jing reported.
"Find a good place to park and give him a shot!"
Ye Mu pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head, "We can't remain passive like this. We must destroy those people, otherwise our plan will be shelved."
"Then give him a try."
Xiahou Tie had already made his decision.
He did carry a magical weapon with extremely strong offensive power. As Ye Mu thought, every member of the Xiahou family had magical weapons of different qualities to protect them.
As a direct descendant of the family, he is heading to Zhongshan City today. In order to avoid danger on the road, the magic weapon he carries with him is extremely lethal.
He had already thought it over.
Except for the fifteen people who followed from Jing'an City, there were five early-stage Dongxu Realm powerhouses, and the remaining dozen or so were all Jindan Realm cultivators.
As for the two old men and one young man who came later, except for the woman who was at the Golden Core Realm, the other two old men were at the early and middle stages of the Dongxu Realm respectively!
All in all, there are seven powerful people in the Void Realm on the other side.
On their side, except for Ye Mu, Qiu Jicheng and Yan Jing who are at the Dongxu realm, the rest are Jindan realm cultivators.
In terms of numbers alone, they are indeed no match for the Wu family.
However, he knew that Ye Mu had the ability to fight against opponents of higher levels!
Ye Mu was more than capable of dealing with the strong man whose face was covered by a cloak.
It was no problem for Qiu Jicheng and Yan Jing to deal with one each.
He used attacking magic weapons to protect all his followers.
However, the other side has a large number of people, including four cultivators in the Cave Void Realm. It would be very difficult for them to win this battle calmly.
However, the arrow is on the string and must be shot!
What he was most looking forward to were the magical artifacts in Ye Mu's hands!
