Chapter 241: You are so brave to rob my patriarch
"Did you see them buying things at the Chamber of Commerce just now? They didn't even ask the price, they just bought them right away."
Five black shadows were wearing black robes and had hoarse voices. Their gender and age could not be distinguished. They moved nimbly through the dense forest and were not noticed by Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.
"He has a fair complexion, and the clothes he wears don't look like the ones we wear here. He looks like a disciple from a sect or family who has come out to meet the world."
The other sneered, like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark: "Let them see the world, then let them see how dangerous the world is."
"Did you hear what that pretty boy said just now? He said they have the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building. Considering their status, their combat power can rival that of the late stage of foundation building."
"So what if we are in the late stage of foundation building? The five of us are all in the late stage of foundation building and are experienced. How can these two little guys be our opponents?"
"It's better to be careful."
"Remember those sect disciples we met last time? They took three months off after doing one job. Now that we have done this job today, we can rest for another three months!"
"Not only that, I think they have more spiritual stones than we thought. They are really a big fat sheep."
"It's about here. Usually there are not many people coming here."
"Get started!"
At a command from the leader, five figures spread out and surrounded the two men with swift movements.
They stood in pre-determined positions to ensure that the two would not leave in any direction.
From their skillful movements, it can be seen that they have done this countless times.
"Stop!" the leader shouted sternly, using a sonic spell that could shock the mind.
"Who are you!" Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were obviously frightened. Although they were alert and vigilant, the fear in their eyes was not hidden well.
“You are really a newcomer. You don’t even know the name of our Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain, yet you dare to hang around in the dense forest.” The leader lifted his hood, revealing a thin face, a hooked nose, and cold eyes.
As they were talking, the five of them released the fluctuations of the late stage of foundation building, so that the two would not put up any unnecessary resistance.
“I don’t know which aristocratic sect trained you. You can’t even tell what we do. How childish.” The other man’s voice was terrifying and sinister. He lifted his hood, revealing one of his eyes was blinded.
"In the dense forest, the five of us surrounded you, what else do you two think it could be?"
"Just now I saw you bought a lot of things in the Chamber of Commerce. You two are quite rich."
"Tell me how many spirit stones you have. If the price satisfies us, this matter can be discussed."
“If the spirit stones are not enough, don’t blame us, the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain, for being ruthless!” At the end, his voice became unusually cold, revealing a hint of cruelty.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou smiled at each other and spread their hands helplessly.
Unexpectedly, the first enemy encountered in the dense forest was not a monster, but a human.
"Let's do it, let them know how powerful we are!"
At the command of the leader, the five of them attacked together. They cooperated well and had never encountered an opponent in the Foundation Establishment Stage. They were about to capture Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.
Unexpectedly, the two of them attacked at the same time with astonishing speed.
"Draw a circle on the ground to make a prison!"
"Draw a dungeon!"
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou quickly drew circles and cast similar spells. An invisible barrier appeared around the five people, blocking their way, and then they were pulled into the dungeon.
"What kind of trick is this!"
"The legendary prison made of a line of paper?"
"No, we are in a dungeon. This is a space spell!"
"It's the way of painting, it must be the way of painting!"
The five people were discussing the matter at once. They were trapped in the dungeon and the invisible barrier, and were at a loss as to what to do with this sudden change.
"Now you're being robbed and this is your fate. Are you tired of living?" Meng Jingzhou sneered.
"You're so brave to rob my leader!" Lu Yang sneered.
Meng Jingzhou turned back in surprise: "I'm still just the helmsman, when did you give yourself a promotion?"
The Immortal Sect went bankrupt due to poor management and bad luck, how can you get a promotion? "What do you mean by giving yourself a promotion? This is a special approval from the immortals." Lu Yang said confidently.
Meng Jingzhou understood when he thought that there was an immortal living in Lu Yang's body.
He was quite envious of Lu Yang, who had an immortal soul in his body. This meant that he could ask questions to the immortal at any time and get guidance from the immortal. What a great opportunity this was.
"Tell me, how many times have you robbed people? Have you ever killed anyone?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? He must have killed someone. Look at his face. Does he look like he has never killed anyone?"
"Send him directly to the government, and let them judge whether to kill him or imprison him."
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
"Wait, wait, wait, young men, there is a misunderstanding between us!" The hook-nosed boss said quickly, "I can't decide what I look like, and we are not here to rob."
Meng Jingzhou didn't believe the hook-nosed boss's lies: "What a misunderstanding! He followed us since we left the Chamber of Commerce, and even deliberately hid outside the range of our spiritual awareness when we arrived in the dense forest. He followed us all the way to this damn place and surrounded us! Isn't this robbery?"
Lu Yang also added: "He also told us that the world is dangerous, and that you also encountered sect disciples last time, and that you can take a break for three months after doing a job."
The five people were shocked. They didn't expect that their whereabouts were exposed from the very beginning.
They should have always been outside the range of the Foundation Establishment Stage's spiritual awareness.
Where did these two people get trained to be so sharp?
What they didn’t know was that Lu Yang’s spiritual awareness had long been comparable to that of the Jindan stage, and he could hear the conversation between the five people clearly.
"We are really not robbers, we are bodyguards, bodyguards!"
"What the hell?" Neither Lu Yang nor Meng Jingzhou reacted.
"We noticed that you two didn't even ask for the price at the Chamber of Commerce. You must be disciples from aristocratic families who came here to train and have never worried about spirit stones. We were afraid that you might be unfamiliar with this place and suffer a great loss, so we came here to be your bodyguards!"
"So what do you mean by letting us see how dangerous the world is?"
The hook-nosed boss stammered, "It's because you have money, so the fee is raised. If you make a lot of money this time, you can take a few months off after this is over."
"Then why are you asking us how many spirit stones we have?"
“That’s a good price.”
"What do you mean by saying that if the spirit stones are not enough, then don't blame the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain for being ruthless?"
"If you go further, you will reach the activity area of a half-step golden elixir monster. If you don't have enough spirit stones, we won't remind you and let you continue to move forward."
"Where's the action you just mentioned?"
"Seeing you guys spread your hands, I thought you were going to refuse to let us be your bodyguards. We are going to lure out the Half-step Golden Core Stage monster in front of us and have a fight to show the strength of the five of us."
Another person muttered quietly, "But judging from the way you are doing, you may not need us as bodyguards."
"Then why did you insist on talking to us about being bodyguards in the jungle?"
“No taxes.”
Lu Yang: “…”
So you guys treat the dense forest as a bonded area, right?
