"Should we continue?"
Gongsun Yaoqin glanced at Shi Wenshan and said, her eyes filled with a chilling coldness that seemed to freeze the air.
Her figure was like a plum blossom braving the snow, aloof and proud.
If Shi Wenshan, that scoundrel, could be sensible enough to stop now, she wouldn't want to get entangled any further. After all, she was out with her master, Fang Han, and the others to relax today, and she didn't want this pointless dispute to ruin her mood.
Shi Wenshan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Beautiful ladies, let's stop fighting, really let's stop fighting. Just now I was just pretending to be that lecherous fellow to test your skills. I didn't expect that you were all hidden masters. In this light, it seems that our help in driving away the wild boars earlier was a bit unnecessary."
"However, you must not underestimate this Sunset Grassland. Once night falls, many dangers will quietly emerge. It would be quite unsafe to camp here."
"In my opinion, we should join hands. Such a strong alliance will greatly improve our safety. Besides, we brought tents, while you don't seem to have prepared any."
As he spoke, his eyes darted around, secretly plotting something. He appeared friendly on the surface, but in reality, he harbored ill intentions.
"We have no interest in uniting with you."
Fang Yingxue frowned, her eyes filled with disgust and wariness. Before Gongsun Yaoqin could refuse, she spoke first and snorted coldly at Shi Wenshan.
She knew perfectly well that Shi Wenshan had ill intentions, and she had no desire to travel with such a scoundrel; she felt disgusted even if she stayed with him for a moment longer.
"Zhou Chi, stop fighting, let's go."
Gongsun Yaoqin turned to look at Zhou Chi, who was still locked in a fierce battle with Shi Yujiao, and exclaimed sweetly.
At this moment, Zhou Chi gradually gained the upper hand in the battle, suppressing the arrogant Shi Yujiao and forcing her to retreat step by step.
Although the knife in Shi Yujiao's hand could be considered a high-grade treasure, it was inferior in quality to the sword in Zhou Chi's hand.
At this moment, Shi Yujiao was already in a completely defensive state.
"good!"
Upon hearing Gongsun Yaoqin's shout, Zhou Chi suddenly turned to the side, dodging Shi Yujiao's hasty thrust of her sword. Then, with lightning speed, he instantly withdrew from the fierce battle and steadily returned to his horse.
He stood tall and straight, his eyes were firm, and with a flash of cold light, he sheathed his sword, displaying the demeanor of a master.
Soon, Fang Han and the others prepared their horses and left this dangerous place.
The clatter of hooves echoed, raising clouds of dust.
"If you've got the guts, leave your names!"
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Shi Yujiao was both angry and anxious. Her face turned red, and she shouted loudly, her voice filled with resentment and anger.
"The wild geese cry in the cold city."
Fang Han sat upright on his horse, his expression calm, and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
He wanted to see if these two really had the guts to chase him all the way to Yanming City.
He had come out for a stroll today and did not intend to kill any living beings, lest he spoil his wonderful mood.
But if these brother and sister are reckless and dare to chase him to Yanming City, he will not be merciful and will make them pay a heavy price for their actions.
"Fang Han from Yanming City, I'll remember you."
Shi Yujiao gritted her teeth and snorted coldly, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes. She squeezed her legs against the horse's belly, as if to give chase.
Just as Shi Yujiao was about to spur her horse to give chase, Shi Wenshan stopped her with a solemn expression and said, "Don't chase after them."
"Brother, are you just going to let them go like that? You don't want those two beautiful girls anymore? They look so fresh and lovely. It's such a waste to let them go like this."
Shi Yujiao stared at Shi Wenshan with wide eyes, her face full of surprise, as if she couldn't believe her ears.
In her opinion, it would be unacceptable for Shi Wenshan to let his "prey" slip away so easily. After all, she knew that her brother wanted to possess any beautiful woman he saw, and he wouldn't let such a beauty escape in such a remote place.
"These people are all experts. If we catch up with them and fight them head-on, even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses."
Shi Wenshan said with a sinister smile, "We'll just follow them at a distance that's neither too close nor too far. It's almost dark, so we'll wait until nightfall to make our move. That way, we can take them down without shedding a drop of blood."
He paused for a moment, a meaningful smile appearing on his face, and said, "Little sister, why were you so eager to catch up just now? Could it be that you've taken a fancy to that kid named Fang Han?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yujiao bit her lower lip and muttered softly, "Brother, you understand me best. Although I didn't see any obvious fluctuations of true energy on Fang Han, and guessed that his cultivation level was probably not high, his blood and qi were exceptionally pure, exuding a unique charm. Therefore, I really don't want to let them go just like that. Tonight, I must obtain Fang Han's essence. I think that after obtaining this man, my cultivation level will directly break through to the mid-level Martial Grandmaster!"
Her eyes were filled with greed and desire.
"What's so difficult about that?"
A ruthless glint flashed in Shi Wenshan's eyes, and he sneered, "Find an opportunity tonight to poison them. Then, Fang Han will be at your mercy, and you can 'play' with him to your heart's content."
His tone was full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.
"Brother, you're amazing! That bloodless method of killing is truly brilliant!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yujiao's face immediately lit up with a joyful smile, a smile that appeared somewhat eerie in the afterglow of the setting sun.
So Shi Wenshan and his group followed Fang Han and his companions at a distance of several miles, so as not to lose them or arouse their suspicion.
