“Old man, which way did that group of mercenaries just take?” He asked a small stall owner nearby.
“Mercenaries? Oh, this way.” The old man pointed to a road.
“Many thanks.” Guan Xilin thanked him while at the same time leaving a gold coin on the stall.
That old man was stupefied to see the gold coin. When he returned to his senses, the big man had already left…
Ahead, in an inn, Ye Jing’s beautiful face was cold. Her hands were tied behind her, and her spirit energy breath seemed to be sealed. She still looked gorgeous and dignified even if her white dress was slightly messy and her hair was in disarray.
However, she was still very conspicuous sitting among those mercenaries. Even at a glance, people would feel that this woman was incompatible with this team of vicious mercenaries.
Because the woman looked exquisite and noble and was tied up, some people in the inn could not help staring at the mercenary team and wondering, how could this mercenary catch such a woman and brought their captive into the city so brazenly?
“Obviously, the girl must have been captured by the mercenaries.” A man in luxurious clothes said. His eyes were fixed on the elegant woman who had been escorted to the table. One could imagine what would happen to such a beautiful woman in the hands of these fierce mercenaries.
“I advise you, Young Master, to mind your own business. This mercenary group is notorious in this area.” “One of the cultivators whispered.
“No one dares to provoke them?” The man in luxurious clothes was stunned. He looked at the cultivator at the next table and asked, “Do you recognize this mercenary group?”
“That’s the Nine-headed Wolf Mercenary Group. Do you see the nine men sitting around the two tables? Those nine’s strengths are at the Nascent Soul Peak level. The eldest among them is said to have just advanced to become a Celestial Strong Exponent not long ago. Aside from those nine, there are thirty to forty mercenaries possessing Golden Core rank cultivation. Their battle strength is famous in this area and no one dares to provoke them. ”
“They often went after some female loose cultivators, especially, capturing beautiful female loose cultivators and selling them. That woman is so beautiful and her strength is not their match. Since she’s on her own, it’s normal that she fell into their hands.”
The man in luxurious clothes didn’t dare to take another look at the woman after listening to their words. He was afraid if he took another glimpse, he would stand up. However, his strength didn’t allow him to act as a hero rescuing a beauty.
Ye Jing sat quietly while paying attention to the people in the inn. She wanted to see if anyone would save her from these people’s hands. At this time, not only was her spirit energy was sealed, she couldn’t even speak. Even if she wanted to ask for help, she had to look for the opportunity so as not to provoke these mercenaries.
However, as she looked around, although most of the people in the inn looked this way, none of them dared to take the initiative. In particular, those people’s strengths were no match for the mercenaries. Thus, even if she wanted to ask for help, it would be very difficult.
She recalled being captured by these people and being brought here all the way while being told that they would sell her somewhere. She was frightened but she didn’t dare to show it on her face.
She knew they would be happier if she showed panic, but that would not help her at all.
