710 Pegasus Mercenary Corps
Lu Benwei rolled his eyes.
âWhat?â Ji Han cried out, âYour spiritual sense is so strong. Why didnât you discover me earlier? Iâve been eating dry food these past few days.â
As she spoke, she took the leftover meat from Lu Benweiâs fire and ate it in big mouthfuls.
Lu Benwei pursed his lips and watched her enjoy the delicious meal helplessly.
What Lu Benwei did not say was that he had only discovered Ji Han not long ago. When Lu Benwei was fighting with the lord of this place, he heard Ji Hanâs exclamation and realized that she was following him.
He felt strange. Lu Benwei did not discover Ji Han with his powerful mental power twice. It was as if she could automatically block all laws and turn everything into nothingness.
âYou plan to go to Jiao City?â Ji Han ate big mouthfuls of meat, her mouth full.
Lu Benwei responded casually and turned around.
âArenât you afraid that your father will look for you if you come out like this?â
âMy father agreed,â Ji Han said.
âThe Jiang Tribe is preparing to attack our Ji Tribe, but without the Spiritual Lord and our tribe leader, we have no way to fight back.â
Lu Benwei was speechless. If he chose to help the Ji Tribe, the situation would be very different. Lu Benwei felt guilty for a moment.
âItâs okay, I donât blame you,â Ji Han said.
âWhat did you say?â Lu Benwei asked.
âThis is a world where the strong prey on the weak. The weak will be bullied by the powerful races. The stronghold is the place we rely on to survive. My father has been elected as the Tribe Leader, so we canât leave. We swear to die with the Ji Tribe.â
Ji Han raised her head, stars reflected in her eyes. âHowever, my father has already dismissed the younger generation of our Ji Tribe. A single spark can start a prairie fire. As long as weâre still alive, when we become stronger one day, the Ji Tribe will be rebuilt!â
Lu Benwei nodded and said, âIf the land is preserved and the people are lost, the people and the land will all perish. If the people are preserved and the land is lost, the people and the land will all remain. This is the principle. What do you plan to do next?â
Ji Han blinked her bright eyes and smiled. âOf course, Iâm going to follow you around! Youâre a descendant of a great tribe. How about you take me as your slave?â
As she spoke, she stood up and crossed her arms on the right side of her abdomen. She squatted slightly and said, âGreetings, Young Master! This servant Ji Han pays her respects to you.â
Lu Benwei pursed his lips and rolled his eyes. âBe serious, I donât need a servant. Just get along with me normally!â
âYes!â Ji Han raised her voice like a eunuch in the palace.
Lu Benwei was speechless.
â¦
The night was silent, and Lu Benwei closed his eyes to rest until dawn. With the support of the darkness origin bloodline, Lu Benwei could adjust his state without falling asleep. He slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of coldness flashed in the depths of his eyes.
âWhoosh!â
A dark arrow shot toward Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei waved his hand and directly broke it.
âWhoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!â
A rain of arrows fell from the sky. The arrows shone with dark light and rained down on Lu Benwei and Ji Han.
âHoly Light Shield!â
Lu Benwei waved his hands, and a huge holy shield appeared in the sky, helping Lu Benwei and Ji Han block the rain of arrows.
âDing, ding, bang, bang!â
âWhatâs wrong?â Ji Han was awakened by the noise and rubbed her sleepy eyes.
The next second, she was shocked. Lu Benwei held the Holy Light Shield with both hands and blocked the rain of arrows.
âClang!â
The last arrow struck the Holy Light Shield, producing a sharp clang. Lu Benwei threw away his Holy Light Shield and shot a cold gaze forward.
Outside the oasis, sand was dancing wildly.
A group of knights was wrapped in heavy armor that flickered with black light. Only their eyes and mouths were exposed, and they looked ahead like tigers eyeing their prey.
Lu Benwei was very surprised. They were riding on a type of monster called the Scaled Pegasus. It had a pair of wings on its back that glowed with a metallic luster.
âPegasus Corps? Why are they here?â Ji Hanâs mouth was wide open in shock.
âPegasus Mercenary Corps, is that them?â Lu Benwei asked.
âYes!â Ji Han said with a solemn expression, âThey are a group of vicious and evil people. They are like locusts in the northern wilderness. According to the elders in the tribe, they seem to be looking for something. It seems that this is only a small team of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps.â
âNo matter what it is, if they provoke me, they will die,â Lu Benwei said coldly.
At this moment, the leader of the mercenary group stepped forward.
âYo, your skills are not bad! Which tribe are you from?â
Judging from his voice and body shape, he looked like a youth. His words revealed a sense of superiority.
Lu Benwei sneered. âIf my skills arenât good enough, I might be shot into a porcupine by you.â
The young leader licked his teeth and revealed a cold smile.
âFollow me!â
The young man held a black-gold halberd in his hand. It was extremely sharp and shone with a black light.
âWhat reason do I have to let you go?â Lu Benwei said coldly.
The young leader of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps was very surprised. Then, he sneered. âDonât you know about the Pegasus Mercenary Corps? Then Iâll tell you that you have to call me master when you meet the Pegasus Mercenary Corps outside the wasteland of the northern wilderness!â
âHahahaha!â
Behind him, the pegasus mercenaries laughed loudly.
âI see that your skills arenât bad. If you follow us, youâll definitely benefit. As for your female companion, come and warm our beds.â
Lu Benwei also laughed out loud, his laughter surpassing theirs.
âWhat are you laughing at?â The young leader was a little angry. No one had ever dared to be so arrogant in front of him.
âYou said that when I met you guys in the desolate land of the northern wilderness, I had to call you master?â
Lu Benwei smiled noncommittally.
âWell then, let me tell you today. If you meet me in the wilderness, you have to call me ancestor!â
âArrogant!â
The young leader shouted, his eyes emitting a cold light. In the next second, he raised his spear and stabbed it at Lu Benwei.
âClang!â
Lu Benwei directly took out the Ancient Sword of Clarity and slashed diagonally.
âCrack!â
The black-gold spear was directly split into two. The youthâs entire arm was trembling as if it had been bitten by a ferocious beast.
âCrush him!â The young leader roared!
The members of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps shouted in unison and rode their horses forward!
âRumble!â
The earth began to tremble as the black mass of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps pressed down on them.
Lu Benweiâs expression was extremely cold as he revealed a sinister smile.
âJi Han, hold on to me.â
Ji Han was surprised. Could it be that Lu Benwei was fighting the Pegasus Mercenary Corps alone? Then, she heard Lu Benweiâs words pause like an ancient god whispering in her ear.
âTen Thousand Lightning Killing Formation!â
