Chapter 93 Horse Thief

Hearing this, Lin Chen frowned.

The sect actually issued a four-star task to kill and wipe out this group of horse thieves.

You know, four-star tasks are generally accepted by warriors in the late Tiangang realm and above. According to Yuan Fei, it has been a while since the four-star task of eliminating horse thieves was issued, but these horse thieves are still living leisurely on the grassland. In this case, either the sect disciples died at the hands of these horse thieves, or no one dared to accept it because of fear in their hearts.

The four-star task is also quite difficult for Lin Chen now.

"It's really a trouble. How long will it take to take a detour from here?" Lin Chen said after a pause.

After hearing Lin Chen's words, Yuan Fei thought for a while and said, "This grassland is very large. If we take a detour, it may take about ten more days. At that time, we should still be able to attend the auction."

Now there are less than fifteen days before the auction starts. They are rushing there now. If they are delayed during the period, they may miss the auction.

You know, medium-sized auctions are rarely held. If you miss this time, Lin Chen will have to wait a long time before he can participate in another auction.

As for small auctions, although the interval between them is very short, the items auctioned in this kind of auction are not of high value and are not very useful to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Go straight!"

If he could avoid a conflict with this group of horse thieves, Lin Chen would naturally not conflict with them, but he did not want to miss this auction because of a detour.

As for this group of horse thieves, they are indeed strong, but Lin Chen has been practicing hard for two months and his strength has also become much stronger.

Yuan Fei hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay! If you encounter this group of horse thieves, teach them a lesson by the way."

Yuan Fei practiced low-level Xuan-level martial arts, so he was not too afraid.

After the two discussed it, they went straight forward.

After passing through a jungle, two days later, Lin Chen and Yuan Fei came to a vast grassland.

This grassland is so vast that you can't see the end at a glance. The grass on the grassland is as tall as a person, green and beautiful.

However, when Lin Chen and Yuan Fei came here, they looked a little alert.

Lin Chen released his soul power, covering the area within 100 meters centered on him.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Lin Chen exclaimed, turned around, and walked towards the grassland not far away.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Fei didn't know that Lin Chen had mastered the soul power. At this moment, seeing Lin Chen walking to the other side, he immediately asked with a puzzled look while following Lin Chen forward.

However, when he came to where Lin Chen was standing and saw the things on the ground, his expression became a little solemn, and he said in a lost voice: "Why is there a warrior's body here!"

In the grass in front of the two, there was a body with a thin cut on the throat, as if it was cut by a sword.

And the blood on this body has not yet coagulated, it should have died not long ago.

Lin Chen observed for a while and said, "This warrior should have been killed by the horse thieves."

"How do you know?" After hearing Lin Chen's words, Yuan Fei couldn't help but speak, looking extremely puzzled.

Just based on the sword marks on the throat of this corpse, can we tell that this person was killed by horse thieves? How is this possible! It is still a question whether the horse thieves can use swords.

Lin Chen smiled, raised his hand and pointed to a large area in front of him, saying, "There are many horse hoof prints on the ground in front. In addition to the horse thieves, who else would ride a large number of horses here to chase this person?"

After a pause, Lin Chen continued, "Moreover, this warrior should be the guard of a caravan, and was chased to this place by the horse thieves."

According to Lin Chen's statement, Yuan Fei searched a large area in front and immediately found many horse hoof prints. In addition, Yuan Fei also found another warrior corpse not far away.

The two warrior corpses were wearing the same clothes, and there was a small sword engraved in the corner of the clothes. They were indeed the guards of a caravan.

However, Yuan Fei was immediately more puzzled and surprised.

How did Lin Chen find out all this?

This is too amazing!

You know, he had been with Lin Chen just now, and the latter had not searched in this area. This ability that seemed to predict the future made Yuan Fei feel terrified.

Yuan Fei couldn't help but feel a little fortunate. Fortunately, he was Lin Chen's friend, not an enemy.

Shaking his head, Yuan Fei said solemnly: "This group of horse thieves is not far away. Let's be careful."

As he said, the two slapped the Qingwu horse under their crotch and rushed forward again.

Qingwu horse's running ability is not strong, but it is better than nothing. However, less than half a day after Lin Chen and Yuan Fei walked, they saw a group of figures flashing in the distance.

Dongdongdongdong...

At the same time, waves of galloping horses came.

"It's a horse thief!"

Yuan Fei's face changed slightly, and his voice was quite solemn.

In the distance, the group of figures seemed to have seen Lin Chen and Yuan Fei, and rode their horses towards them. However, in a few breaths, they were less than a few thousand meters apart.

This group of people, wearing coarse linen clothes, each equipped with different weapons, the first one is a Tiangang Realm late cultivation, and next to him, there are dozens of Tiangang Realm warriors with different cultivations, and behind him are hundreds of Lianti Realm warriors.

With so many people, they must have come out in full force, which means that this time they are preparing to rob the passing caravans on the grassland.

Although their cultivation levels were different, the horses they rode were all snow spirit horses. Snow spirit horses were good at running wildly and had strong explosive power in short distances, which was much stronger than the blue and black horses of Lin Chen and Yuan Fei.

Lin Chen's expression remained unchanged, and he just looked at them indifferently.

After a few breaths, this group of horse thieves had already stood hundreds of meters in front of Lin Chen and Yuan Fei. Then, as if they had been trained, they surrounded Lin Chen and Yuan Fei layer by layer, completely blocking their way back, and looked at Lin Chen and Yuan Fei greedily.

"Hmm? Wuji Sect inner sect disciples?"

In front of Lin Chen and Yuan Fei, there were dozens of Tiangang Realm warriors. One of the middle-aged strong men frowned when he saw Lin Chen and Yuan Fei, and made a buzzing sound.

This middle-aged strong man was in the late Tiangang Realm and was the leader of this group of horse thieves! He held a heavy-looking hammer in his hand, and his whole body was full of momentum.

"Tianji Sect inner sect disciples, I guess you two have accepted the mission issued by the Tianji Sect inner sect, and want to wipe us out, but you two are at the peak of the eighth level of the body refining realm, and the other is at the early stage of the Tiangang realm. With such cultivation, you dare to accept a four-star mission. Do you really have no idea, or have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?"

After the middle-aged man noticed the cultivation of Lin Chen and Yuan Fei, the gloom on his brows was swept away, and he laughed loudly and said mockingly.

Obviously, this group of people thought that Lin Chen and Yuan Fei had accepted the sect mission, so they came here.

"Hehe, big brother is right, these two guys are looking for death!"

"They are really young and fearless. Last time, an inner disciple of the late Tiangang realm came to Tianji Sect, but he was killed by big brother. They are so low in cultivation, and they dare to come here to die?"

"Big brother, I want to fight! Leave the kid in the early Tiangang realm to me!"

"Big brother, let me go, I will kill these two guys together!"

...

As soon as the middle-aged strong man finished speaking, many horse thieves who had been silent all the time laughed and ridiculed unscrupulously.

Among them, more than ten Tiangang realm warriors beside the middle-aged strong man were eager to try and wanted to kill Lin Chen and Yuan Fei.

"Brothers, you have fought with the sect disciples several times before, this time, let me fight! See how I teach these two guys a lesson!" Just as the noisy voice fell, suddenly, a slightly immature voice sounded, and then saw that next to the middle-aged strong man, a young man in the early Tiangang realm shouted excitedly.

As soon as the young man finished speaking, a middle-aged man next to him frowned and said in a low voice: "Xiaofeng, don't mess around!"

Hearing this, the young man couldn't help but say sullenly: "Brother, aren't they just two sect disciples? The one at the peak of the eighth level of the body refining realm is nothing to be afraid of. Besides, I am also in the early stage of the Tiangang realm, with the same cultivation level as that person. I can deal with them."

The middle-aged man who spoke just now was the young man's elder brother. His cultivation level was as high as the middle stage of the Tiangang realm, and he was also the backbone of the horse thieves. After hearing the young man's words, he opened his mouth and wanted to dissuade him, but at this time, the other horse thieves with the cultivation level of the Tiangang realm laughed.

"Old Wei, what are you worried about? Your brother is also in the early stage of the Tiangang realm. His strength is not weak. Isn't he still a match for those two sect disciples?"

"Yes, Old Wei, it's not a good idea for you to protect Xiaofeng like this. Xiaofeng also needs training."

"Xiaofeng, we support you, go and kill those two sect disciples!"

...

This group of people seemed to be quite familiar with the young man and his brother, and they all said exhortation.

After hearing what these people said, the middle-aged man Lao Wei was also a little hesitant. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Then listen to Big Brother."

The leader of the horse thieves saw that everyone agreed, so he didn't waste words. He didn't take Lin Chen and the two sect disciples seriously. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Okay! Xiaofeng, it's been a while since you broke through to the early stage of Tiangang Realm. It's a good time to exercise. Go."

"Thank you, Big Brother! Everyone, just watch how I kill them." The young man's face flushed, and his expression was excited, as if it was easy to deal with Lin Chen and Yuan Fei.

As he said, the young man pulled out a big knife and rushed towards Lin Chen and Yuan Fei.

Seeing the young man rushing over, Yuan Fei looked angry. This group of people was too arrogant. They didn't take them seriously!

Yuan Fei said in a low voice: "Lin Chen, leave this kid to me!"

"Okay, you be careful!"

Lin Chen nodded slightly. This group of horse thieves was a group of big thieves who had no discipline and robbed the passing caravans. The disciples sent by the sect came to wipe them out, but they were blocked by them. This actually helped to boost their arrogance.

Yuan Fei pulled out the big knife in his arms with a clang, jumped off the horse, and also ran towards the young man.

Many bandits around looked at the three people in the encirclement with interest. In their opinion, dealing with Lin Chen and Yuan Fei was just a piece of cake. However, at this moment, the young man took the initiative to ask for a fight and wanted to use these two disciples of the sect to train themselves. They were also happy to watch the excitement, which was also a spice of their life after robbing the caravan.
