This indicates that he is going to die. 0
 
Of course, I’m scared, but it doesn’t matter to me. After all, my family is gone, and I’m the only one left. So whether I live or die doesn’t really concern me. But you, my lord, look so dignified; you must have family behind you. If you die, your family will surely be heartbroken. 0
 
The young man spoke earnestly. 0
 
You— 0
 
Chen Anlin listened to these foolish words, yet he felt a genuine pang of emotion. 0
 
Be careful. 0
 
At that moment, someone lunged at the young man before him. 0
 
As a black long sword was about to pierce his chest, the young man’s eyes filled with fear. “It’s over, my lord. I’m really going to die.” 0
 
Run! 0
 
Chen Anlin grabbed him and pulled him back. 0
 
Just narrowly avoiding the attack, Chen Anlin thrust his sword forward. 0
 
Thud! 0
 
The bandit who charged in let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground, clutching his chest. 0
 
“My lord, you saved me!” The young man exclaimed in surprise. 0
 
Chen Anlin patted his shoulder. “Stay behind me.” 0
 
With that, he swiftly turned and struck again, killing another assailant who rushed at them. 0
 
Perhaps sensing that Chen Anlin was not to be trifled with, some of the attackers abandoned their assault here and turned to attack elsewhere. 0
 
However, Chen Anlin was always able to kill with precision. With every swing of his sword, enemies fell one after another in the blink of an eye. 0
 
Who is this guy? How could he take down so many of us in an instant? 0
 
In the bushes, the leader of the undead furrowed his brow. 0
 
Suddenly, he instinctively sensed danger approaching from behind. 0
 
Who? 0
 
He turned around but saw nothing. 0
 
However, this movement exposed his position. 0
 
He decided to charge out and attack Fan Lingxue instead. 0
 
“Ha ha ha! Little girl, surrender quickly!” 0
 
Before he could finish his taunt, something struck his head hard, causing it to drop straight to the ground. 0
 
 
Looking at the person, Fan Lingxue instinctively drew her bow and shot an arrow. 0
 
Thud! 0
 
The leader of the undead was hit squarely in the head. This left his group of subordinates stunned, and they quickly turned to flee. 0
 
The battle ended just like that. 0
 
"Miss, you are amazing!" 0
 
"Long live the Miss! Long live the Miss!" 0
 
But why did he suddenly fall just now? Many people recalled the scene with disbelief. 0
 
"Miss, was it you who did this?" someone approached Fan Lingxue and asked. 0
 
Fan Lingxue naturally shook her head and explained, "If it were me, that would be great, but I didn’t do anything just now." 0
 
"Huh? You didn’t do anything?" 0
 
Everyone was taken aback. 0
 
"It was a soul power attack." 0
 
At that moment, Old Jing walked over and explained, "He has no other external injuries. He suddenly lost his senses and fell to the ground, clearly indicating that his soul power suffered a heavy blow. I have seen masters who use soul power before; those attacked by soul power always react this way!" 0
 
Everyone understood. 0
 
Fan Lingxue frowned in suspicion, "But who attacked him?" 0
 
"That’s unclear." 0
 
Old Jing frowned slightly. Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he looked around the forest and clasped his hands together, "May I ask which senior saved him? We owe you our lives; our Tieshan Escort Agency would like to meet you to express our gratitude!" 0
 
The surroundings were eerily quiet, with no response at all, only the sound of the wind blowing through the trees. 0
 
"Uncle Jing, there’s no one here?" Fan Lingxue murmured. 0
 
Old Jing whispered back, "Miss, you may not know this, but many masters have eccentric personalities. They can choose not to reveal themselves, but we must still express our thanks." 0
 
Upon hearing this, Fan Lingxue realized he was right and began to mimic him: "Thank you for saving us, senior! Our Tieshan Escort Agency will always welcome you as a guest." 0
 
Not far away, Chen Anlin watched this scene and couldn’t help but find it somewhat amusing. 0
 
 
Just now, I merely employed a small trick, yet it seems I have been mistaken for a mysterious expert. However, this is for the best; by concealing my identity, I can better protect myself and the Iron Mountain Escort Agency. Otherwise, once my identity is revealed, I would undoubtedly face endless pursuit. Based on my experience, several routes back to the capital might already be blocked, so returning now would be a dead end. 0
 
I am not in a hurry; I will wait until my strength is restored, and then I can naturally carve my way out. 0
 
Fan Lingxue noticed that the surroundings were still eerily quiet and felt a sense of boredom. She instructed everyone to tidy up and continue their journey. Of course, she had the body of the Dead Man's Leader placed onto the carriage. This person was a wanted criminal, and bringing him back would fetch quite a sum of silver. 0
 
With the Dead Man's Leader dealt with, everyone in the convoy was filled with joy, especially Xiao Qing, who had been rescued by Chen Anlin earlier. 0
 
"Young Master Chen, my name is Huzi. You saved me, so you are my savior! My parents always said that those who save my life are like my second parents! Please allow me to pay my respects!" Huzi exclaimed as he knelt before Chen Anlin. 0
 
"Hey, Huzi, there's no need for such formalities," Chen Anlin shook his head and quickly helped Huzi back up. 0
 
"Young Master Chen, just let Huzi kneel for a moment. Otherwise, with his personality, he probably won't be able to sleep," Fan Lingxue suggested. 0
 
Chen Anlin: 0
 
In the end, Chen Anlin still helped Huzi up. 0
 
"Young Master Chen, I saw you save several people just now. Thank you very much," Fan Lingxue said sincerely. She had indeed caught glimpses of his actions during the recent battle. Chen Anlin had saved quite a few lives. If it weren't for him, they would have surely suffered significant losses. 0
 
"You saved me before; saving others is only right," Chen Anlin replied honestly. 0
 
"Young Master Chen, would you be interested in joining our Iron Mountain Escort Agency?" Fan Lingxue suddenly asked with anticipation. 0
