Chapter 5: The Elders Protect Us



"Brother Chu, please don't be offended. Junior Brother Wei is a straightforward person, but he actually has no ill intentions."

In the evening, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The convoy that set out from Hushan Town in Fengdu County during the day parked by the side of the road to prepare dinner. During this time, Zuo Cheng, who looked like a cool and handsome guy, was still explaining the unpleasantness that happened in the town during the day.

"Yes! Senior Brother Chu, don't mind me. The fact is that the junior disciples of the academy are ranked in the top 300, and Chu You's name is not on it..."

"Feiming!"

The young girl Shen Wanqing interrupted a certain fool in time.

"Um... that... Senior Brother Chu, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that although you entered earlier than us, your school ranking is still behind... that... that... I don't mean to look down on you."

After all, they were just a group of young people, there wasn't so much intrigue going on. There were some things he wanted to say but he didn't know how to express them, which made Wei Feiming extremely embarrassed.

"Junior Brother Wei is outspoken, I understand." Chu You patted the other's shoulder to show that it was nothing serious.

"There are so many disciples in the academy. The first three hundred are already elite disciples at the warrior level. For someone like me, a junior disciple who entered the academy a year or two earlier than you, if you stay long enough, you will naturally understand."

Senior brother’s words are so beautiful, and he resolved the awkwardness so quickly. In fact, he is also very beautiful. If his cultivation can be like Senior Brother Zuo’s, he will be perfect.

"Oops! I was thinking about something else!"

Shen Wanqing, who was originally staring at Chu You, had her eyes wandering and suddenly blushed.

Fortunately, everyone was attracted by Chu You’s words at this time and didn’t pay attention.

"Brother, there's no need to underestimate yourself. Although you're not a genius disciple, you still have hope of reaching the Huawu realm and becoming a formal disciple of the academy within five years."

Zuo Cheng understood what Chu You meant. The three of them had only been in the sect for a year, but they had already broken into the top 100 of the ninth-level warriors. They had not had much contact with civilian disciples, so Wei Feiming had been embarrassed before.

After all, they are just a group of boys and girls, how could they have any sinister thoughts?

But what you said sounds weird.

"If I wasn't mentally strong, I would probably be silent for a while just because of this sentence." Chu You thought.

As expected, geniuses, even if they are approachable, cannot understand the sufferings of ordinary people. Their ordinary things may be the hurdles that others can never overcome.

"Junior Brother Zuo, please try to stop comforting others in the future. You are more suited to being taciturn and cold."

“???” Zuo Cheng was confused.

But Wei Feiming, who had been extremely embarrassed before, suddenly saw stars, folded his arms and nodded:

"Mm-hmm~ Senior Brother Chu speaks beautifully."

Hey, hey! What the hell are you saying with such sympathy? Don't tell me you, a ninth-level warrior, can still be defeated by him. Aren't you supposed to start from the same starting line?

"Forget it, don't worry about this topic. Let's finish dinner and continue on our journey."

Seeing that Feng Da was packing up the remaining dry food and not eating with the caravan, Chu You secretly felt relieved and calmly changed the subject.

"We'll travel overnight and change people but not cars, so we can reach the mountain city the day after tomorrow." Zuo Cheng no longer minded the joke just now.

“After all, this is Fengdu County, which borders the ghost clan. Although we left from the outer Hushan Town and the chance of encountering ghosts is almost zero, it is better to leave as soon as possible just in case.” Shen Wanqing finally calmed down.

I nodded secretly. I didn't expect this group of people to be so cautious. It turns out there are no fools in this world.

But they still ignored that this was somewhat different from the coldness of a normal night. Warriors have different physiques from ordinary people, so it is indeed difficult for them to notice such slight changes.

It’s good to be cautious, but you lack experience. Even geniuses need to be tempered!

"It seems that we can leave Hushan Town tonight, but the night is cold, so Mr. Feng Da, please put on more clothes and keep warm." Chu You reminded.

He turned around to look at the team members who were also packing up. They seemed to feel the cold and unconsciously pulled their clothes tighter.

There seemed to be an unnatural chill blowing against Feng Da's neck. He shuddered and turned up his collar and tightened it.

"Mr. Chu You, please pay attention too." He was referring to someone's mounted guard during the day.

The motorcycle that was towed by the rack at the end of the convoy belonged to Chu You, although he didn't need to ride it at night.

"Is the night cold?" Zuo Cheng noticed the abnormality in time.

The other two were a little slower, and then they also stared around with serious expressions, and the atmosphere was tense for a while.

Hmm! Not too stupid, the reminder just now finally worked.

Chu You agreed mentally, but a puzzled expression remained on his face: "Huh! What's wrong? For ordinary people, is there anything wrong with being cold at night?"

"Warriors like me have strong physiques and abundant blood, so we can't feel such subtle differences. But it's different for ordinary people. It's just nightfall, and those people are already exhaling white air. They're getting colder too quickly."

"So Senior Brother Chu can detect the abnormality if he feels it carefully."

Hearing this, Chu You suddenly realized something and felt:

"Is this... a ghost?"

"right!"

"Right over there!"

Wei Feiming and Zuo Cheng answered at the same time, but the latter went a step further, as if he had determined the direction of the ghost. He crushed the stones, shot out like lightning, and disappeared into the darkness.

The direction is just behind the left of the group of people in the convoy.

"Bang!"

Although he was a little late, Wei Feiming still rushed over at full speed.

"Brother Chu, please stay and protect their safety. Wanqing will also go and lend a hand to the two brothers." She said it politely, but the eager look in her eyes betrayed her.

He nodded in agreement, and another figure shot out like lightning.

"Young people are impulsive. All three of them went without thinking about what might happen if they were trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain..."
