Chapter 48 Going down the sect mountain
Morning came quickly; standing in the courtyard was Leon in his sect robe and white pants, his hair tied up by a thin white fabric, and the rest of his hair fell behind him like a waterfall.
Quin Xuxu stood in front of her house and gazed at Leon with an angry expression that Leon found funny but didn't dare to mock her about it.
"Hmph! I heard you'll be going on your mission today, here is a storage ring I got for you. It's a low-level storage ring with only a square meter space, Inside are some pills, food, and some money in case you need it, make sure to protect yourself"
Quin Xuxu snorted and tossed a small ring at Leon before entering her house with light steps and closing the door behind her.
She was visibly angry and Leon could understand why he had gone back on his words last night and ended up shoving his entire length into her, ignoring her begging.
Leon caught the ring and said his thanks with an awkward smile on his face even though Quin Xuxu was no longer in front of him.
He wore the ring on one of his fingers and sent a wisp of Shi into it. The space inside wasn't big and there were only a few things inside.
"Sadly, my sword won't fit." Leon sighed.
With his sword scabbard tied to his waist, he exited the courtyard before going down the mountain.
He was to meet with the other prime disciples at the foot of the Falcon sect mountain before they set off.
Leon encountered a lot of disciples who greeted warmly and passionately, Leon returned their feelings with bright smiles on his face.
He soon reached the location where the others were waiting.
Wanxu, Linxu, Muging, Yue, Rongyu, and Feifei were already waiting for him there.
Leon saw that each of them was carrying a small traveling bag and various weapons; he stared at them in confusion as he got closer.
"Oi, junior brother is here!"
Feifei announced with an energetic look on her face.
The others turned to look at him as well. Wanxu, Muging, and Rongyu welcomed him with casual nods; Linxu and Yue only glared at him coldly before looking away.
They soon left the sect perimeters and left the coverage of the sect barrier, it was Leon's first time seeing the barrier.
It was a blue transparent curtain that shot high into the air, and Leon wasn't able to see the top of it; their bodies easily passed through it after taking out their sect tokens.
They continued moving and were soon hundreds of kilometers away from the sect after many hours of running and were now inside a huge forest with tall trees and footpaths.
"The town we are going to is called the Broken Sword Town, and it's a town with the most blacksmiths aside from farmers. The town chief is a level 4 expert, and there are many families with martial artists as well.
For a group of bandits to push them into such a situation means that they have a large force of martial artists as well and probably high leveled martial artists, so we'll not expose ourselves after reaching there and secretly investigate them," Rongyu informed them as they ran through the forest.
They encountered a few beasts, but they were very weak beasts, so the group didn't bother with them and continued moving.
They continued running for the rest of the day and only stopped when dusk was approaching to recuperate.
They settled in an area not far from a footpath and had a lot of trees. The group picked trees with thick branches to rest and restore their stamina.
'But I can still go for the rest of the night, maybe it's because I have Qi?' Leon thought to himself as he stared at the others who were sitting cross-legged on branches of different trees.
Nobody was sleeping and they only closed their eyes to absorb Shi.
Suddenly, the sounds of fighting rang from a distance ahead of them. Everyone's eyes immediately snapped open and they looked in the direction that the sounds were coming from.
"Bandits?"
Feifei's voice sounded from a tree not far from Leon.
"Let's go take a look," Rongyu said before jumping away in the direction of the sound.
The others quickly followed and moved in the direction of the sounds, the sounds of swords clashing and screaming of people becoming louder the closer they got.
They finally arrived after running two thousand meters through the forest.
Standing in tree branches, they were finally able to see the source of the fighting.
On the footpath, four large caravans could be seen lined up in front of each other, and around them were fifteen men. Ten of them were in cheap plate armor while the other five were in ordinary clothes.
