The Urban Medical Martial Immortal
Chapter 2076 - 2066: Temporary Alliance (Second Update)Travel together?
Muu Xinrui’s words made everyone in the pavilion look at each other in surprise.
Especially Xing Yin—her delicate brows knitted tightly as she sensed danger.
Her injuries still hadn’t healed; if they ran into a slightly stronger existence, it would be almost impossible for her to cope.
And the few people before her, each one of them gave her an extremely dangerous feeling.
Facing these people, it was as if she were being targeted by hunters!
On this point.
Xing Yin’s perception was not wrong.
Muu Xinrui and the other two were still fine, but the one leading them, Chen Zijie, was a Cultivator at the Qi Refining Ninth Level!
And she was a Core Disciple from a Major Sect!
An existence like that—dealing with a Martial Arts Grandmaster would be more than easy!
So for an Assassin as terrifyingly bold as Xing Yin, the pressure she felt from Chen Zijie was extremely intense!
Traveling together with people who were dangerous to her?
As an Assassin, Xing Yin’s first reaction was to refuse!
Lin Tian, on the other hand, didn’t care; he smiled and said, "It’s already light now—broad daylight. Where are the bad guys supposed to come from?"
"They’re there! Up on Sunset Mountain!"
Muu Xinrui hurriedly shook her head hard, speaking to Lin Tian very solemnly: "Sunset Ancient City is only the Outer City that’s open to the public; on the surface, that’s all! But in reality it’s a very scary place. Some bad people have secretly taken it over! And now that it’s autumn, Sunset Mountain is basically closed to outsiders. Why are you going there at this time?"
Obviously, before coming here, Muu Xinrui had already learned quite a lot about Sunset Mountain from Chen Zijie.
It was so detailed that even Lin Tian hadn’t known this much before!
At the side, Chen Zijie frowned slightly, a trace of hesitation in her expression.
She didn’t want to travel together with Lin Tian and the others, because she was worried accidents might happen—too troublesome!
But thinking of how Lin Tian was Muu Xinrui’s savior, she felt it was a bit hard to outright say words of refusal.
Hesitating for a while, she looked at Lin Tian and said, "It really isn’t suitable to go to Sunset Mountain at this time. How about you go another day?"
As for what the situation was over at Sunset Mountain now, Chen Zijie didn’t know either.
But it was certainly very dangerous.
If Lin Tian and the others went over, even with some Skill of their own, they might still end up losing their lives!
She wouldn’t be able to watch over them!
"We only want to go over today; it’ll be fine!"
Lin Tian gave a faint smile and shook his head at Chen Zijie as he spoke.
The boy himself might be fine, but what about the other two?
Seeing Lin Tian insist, Chen Zijie no longer tried to dissuade him, but she was filled with suspicion toward Xing Yin and the other companion who would be traveling along.
However.
Seeing that Lin Tian had no intention of introducing Xing Yin and the other, she didn’t ask.
She then said, "If you insist, we have no problem! Since we’re all heading to Sunset Mountain, we’ll be taking the same boat anyway."
Xing Yin didn’t speak; if Chen Zijie and the others wanted to go, she couldn’t stop them anyway.
Right now the only thing she needed to do was avoid unnecessary complications.
As time passed,
there finally appeared a wooden boat out on the sea.
That’s right!
A wooden boat!
And it was a wooden boat driven by a motor.
The whole boat was carved with Dragon and Phoenix patterns, looking antique.
The boat wasn’t small; it could probably hold twenty to thirty people, and it had two decks.
Lin Tian followed the group to the boarding area at the port.
There was only an old man on the boat who piloted it. He walked onto the deck and shouted, "Two hundred per person for the fare. Swipe your card or drop the cash yourselves—everyone, be honest! It’s a bit off-season now with fewer people, so don’t complain it’s expensive!"
The old man was wearing a sweat-soaked undershirt, with three-quarter pants below, and a pair of slippers on his feet—completely casual.
But Lin Tian couldn’t help giving the old man an extra look.
Because this guy was also a Cultivator!
Even though he was only a small Qi Refining First Level Cultivator!
From this, it could be seen that the old man running this boat and route must have some background.
"This isn’t an ordinary boat!"
Lin Tian boarded with the rest, speaking softly as he did.
"His name is Zhang Bin, a descendant of a fallen merchant family in Mizhou City. Last century, they controlled the entire route to Sunset Mountain."
Beside him, Chen Zijie explained to Lin Tian, saying, "It’s just that later, better routes were developed, so there are very few boats coming here now. Nowadays it’s basically only his boat..."
Hearing this, Lin Tian immediately understood.
But he also guessed that the Zhang Family Zhang Bin had belonged to before probably wasn’t an ordinary family.
For someone to be able to reach Qi Refining First Level, the Zhang Family was most likely a Cultivation Family!
Once they boarded, the group sat on the first deck.
From Xing Yin, Lin Tian had already learned that Sunset Mountain was an island out at sea, with Ancient City ruins on it.
Wanggeshan’s Huaxia Branch was hidden there.
Sunset Mountain was over ten li from Sunset Port, so the wooden boat sailed for nearly an hour before finally approaching an island.
The island wasn’t large—about the size of a University City.
On the island sat a giant mountain,
and at the foot of that mountain stretched a cluster of buildings, very old and dilapidated; that should be the remnants of Sunset Ancient City!
However.
Beside those old structures stood several modern Gao Lou, half-hidden by green trees.
When the wooden boat docked and they walked onto the island, Lin Tian noticed that the main gate at the entrance to that Gao Lou complex bore a huge plaque—Sunset Travel Co. Ltd.!
"A travel company?"
Lin Tian raised his brows, speaking in surprise.
But soon his eyes narrowed slightly.
Because from those buildings, he sensed a trace of killing intent, and he could faintly smell blood in the air.
"On the surface it’s a travel company; in reality it’s Wanggeshan’s branch!"
Xing Yin shook her head and said coldly.
After saying that, she stopped and turned to look at Chen Zijie.
But not seeing any people from Liuusha or Wanggeshan, she was a bit puzzled.
Since Chen Zijie had come here, it was definitely for Wanggeshan.
"You know about Wanggeshan, so I’m guessing you’re with Liuusha?"
Chen Zijie glanced over Xing Yin, not caring in the slightest, and said directly, "There was a fierce fight inside; quite a few people must have died! But right now... both your Liuusha and Wanggeshan have probably retreated into the buildings halfway up the mountain! They’re being besieged!"
"What!"
Xing Yin’s face changed drastically, exclaiming in shock.
But Chen Zijie ignored her and continued striding toward that cluster of Gao Lou.
Lin Tian narrowed his eyes; his Divine Sense had already enveloped the entire island, and at the same time he saw two groups of people who had pulled back into the broken-down buildings halfway up the mountain, roughly fifty to sixty in total.
But they all had various injuries on them and were currently fending off an attack from a dozen people outside!
Those attackers were all blond and blue-eyed, wielding either hot weapons or Swords, looking vicious and murderous.
Moreover, all of them had strong Skill; each one could face Xing Yin alone without being defeated!
In particular, with Lin Tian’s Divine Sense covering them, he could feel a strange aura from these people.
It was the first time he’d ever encountered it!
"Liuusha originally came to wipe out Wanggeshan’s branch, right? But in the end, some other party came in as the oriole behind the mantis, so Liuusha and Wanggeshan have temporarily formed an alliance and are resisting the powerful enemy together!"
Chen Zijie gave Xing Yin a cold look as she walked, saying, "Although I’m not fond of your Liuusha—with nearly half of the foreigners in charge—at the very least, it was founded by Huaxia Pleople! We’ll go up and pay them a visit..."
