The Hunted Hunter
Chapter 55. The End of a Mission


"All right! We will bring the head of the Sun Cheng family to the court at Lu town hall." Gongshu Ban.


"Stop! Do not punish my husband! He's innocent." Sun Cheng's wife.


"Mrs Sun! All the evidence has made it clear that Mr. Sun Cheng is indeed the brain of kidnapping girls in this city." Gongshu Ban.


"Mr Gongshu Ban! You two have been friends for a long time, why are you doing my husband like this!?."


"Mrs Sun! If your husband has done nothing wrong, how could I do something like this to Your husband!?."


"All right! We go first, for matters within the Sun family, I leave it to the elders of the Sun family to settle it." Continue Gongshu Ban while walking and followed by all the troops below and also bring Sun Cheng to justice.


Ma Guang as well as elders Sim Lan and Xia Jiao also directly followed the city lord from behind.


After arriving at Lu's palace, Sun Cheng was thrown into prison by the soldiers who took him while waiting for his trial.


While Ma Guang, Xia Jiao and elder Sim Lan sat opposite the general and the commanders of the troops.


While Gongshu Ban sat on his seat of greatness.


"Decider Ma! Since you have solved the problem in our city, you are entitled to 5000 gold coins." Gongshu Ban.


"As for the representatives of the Peach Flower sect. We'll give you 2500 gold coins." Said Gongshu Ban again.


"For master Yuan Gao, this is me handing over his medical expenses along with compensation for him." Said Gongshu Ban while giving 100 pieces of gold to Ma Guang.


"Thank you, Mr. Gongshu Ban!." Say them simultaneously.


"In that case, we resign." Ma Guang.


Ma Guang immediately stood up from his seat while cupping his hands towards the city lord as well as the people who were inside the hall room.


It was also followed by elders Sim Lan and Xia Jiao.


"Decider Ma! Elder Sim Lan! What about the prize?." Ask Gongshu Ban.


"Mr Gongshu! The reward we will take when we will return to our respective sects." Ma Guang.


"Mr Gongshu! If you are pleased, can the gifts for our sect be delivered by the people of Lord Gongshu!?." Said elder Sim Lan.


"Why is it like that?." Ask Gongshu Ban.


"The two of us have not been able to return to our sect, because there are still things we will do." Answer elder Sim Lan.


"All right then! However, the cost to deliver the prize will be taken from the portion of the prize you get. How's it?." Gongshu Ban.


"All right! According to what master Gongshu just thought." Answer Sim Lan.


"In that case, we'll resign first." Say those three people.


The three of them immediately stepped foot to leave the palace hall of Lu town.


A short while later the three of them had finally arrived at the entrance of the inn.


They immediately rushed inside the inn to see the condition of Yuan Gao.


Upon arriving at Yuan Gao's door, Ma Guang knocked on the door.


Yuan Jiali opened the door to the room.


"Back Ma!." Yuan Jiali.


"Miss Yuan! How's your father doing?." Ask Ma Guang.


Elder Sim Lan simply remained silent and did not say - a word, but the look on his face was so worried about the circumstances of Yuan Gao.


"Father's situation is better now. Swordsman Ma, Elder Sim Lan and also Miss Xia! Come on, let's go in first." Yuan Jiali.


Eventually, the three men entered the room.


Arriving inside the room, the three people stared at Yuan Gao's bedridden body.


Elder Sim Lan could not help but feel her feelings when she saw the state of Yuan Gao.


"Gao gege! How are you doing? Are you okay?." Sim Lan asked while kneeling near Yuan Gao's bed while holding the man's hand.


Tears began to wash over the woman's cheeks.


"Lan 'er! Don't you worry, I'm fine!." Said Yuan Gao with a heavy tone of voice as if very forced to make a sound.


"Gee! Don't talk too much." Sim Lan's.


Yuan Jiali instantly received a gift from Ma Guang.


"Miss Xia! Can you concoct medicine in order to quickly recover Uncle Yuan's body?." Ask Ma Guang.


Hearing what Ma Guang said, elder Sim Lan immediately turned to look towards Xia Jiao.


"Jiao 'er! Do you understand the science of medicine?." Ask elder Sim Lan.


Xia Jiao responded to him just by nodding her head.


"Then, please make medicine so that it can quickly heal wounds and recover Yuan Gao's strength." Elder Sim Lan said pleading with Xia Jiao.


"Elder don't be like that, I'll feel very sad if the elder does that again." Xia Jiao.


Finally morning was approaching, Ma Guang and Xia Jiao immediately moved from the inn to head towards the store that sold resources as well as herbs.


After arriving at a store that Ma Guang had entered, the two of them then began to choose herbs and other resources that could help healing and recovery of internal energy.


After finishing, the two of them finally paid for everything, not to forget also Xia Jiao chose materials for herself in order to break through into becoming a holy swordsman.


The same thing was done by Ma Guang, the young man was now ready to open the first gate of the Sacred swordsman, the opening gate.


The Yellow Bamboo sect.


Booomm


The sound of the explosion that the source came from the forbidden region of the Yellow Bamboo sect.


"Who is the ancestor who broke through to become the Sacred Swordsman?."


"There are ancestors who have broken through to become holy warriors."


The words that came out from every mouth of the Yellow Bamboo sect members.


The phenomenon can already be predicted by every member of the Yellow Bamboo sect from early stage swordsmen to high level warriors.


Every member in the sect, was hoping that their sect could already have one who had already reached the holy swordsman.


It was because, so that their sects were more reluctant and would enter the ranks of large sects.


While the Patriarch himself, was very happy with the incident, because he would have the opportunity to break through as well as become a holy swordsman.


A few days later, when ancestor Guang Zhi had finished forming the foundation of his level back then. The middle-aged lung man also directly came out from his meditation spot.


Every elder as well as the members in the sect, instantly paid their respects as well as congratulations to ancestor Guang Zhi.


After the euphoria had calmed down again, finally ancestor Guang Zhi asked the Patriarch.


"Has Guang'er returned?."


"Not ancestors! What is it that the ancestors are looking for Ma Guang?." Patriarch Speaks.


"Our sect will be the strongest in this imperial territory, and it will be because of that child." Ancestral speech.


"There will be some of our warriors who can break through to become a holy swordsman." Saying ancestors again.


"That's very good news for our sect." Patriarch Speaks.


"Yes! But all that would happen, if Ma Guang deigned to help him. I can break through to become this holy warrior because of the direction he has given Me." The ancestors explained it.


Several high-level elders as well as the patriarch himself gasped in shock at hearing that.


"How is that possible?." Ask Patriarch.


"All that is possible! And it was also likely that the current Ma Guang had already become a holy swordsman." Saying ancestors again.


"What's? Why is it like that?." Asked the Patriarch more curious.


"Can! Because by the time he took the mission, the boy had already become a late stage swordsman who was ready to break through into becoming a holy warrior."


The ancestor went back to explaining the things that he and Ma Guang went through.


Everyone who was in the hall immediately fell silent at the thought of the words they had just heard from Guang Zhi's ancestor.


"Patriak Yao! By the time the boy returns, you should have called himself and asked him for a clue that you could break through to become a holy warrior." Ancestral Saying.


"Good ancestor." Answer the patriarch while paying his respects.
