Trapped In The Cultivator World
Task Escort V

After landing on the edge of the ravine after executing the Falling Star Round technique, Li Hao instantly stored the Wind sword and then flowed a certain amount of Qi into both of his legs.

Whooos!

Without much ado, Li Hao immediately jumped into the air as high as possible then manifested the Qi in his sword blade into fire.

Whooos!

A blaze was seen and then towered high into the sky after Li Hao lifted him up using two hands.

"Death..."

Li Hao swung his sword very quickly, and a long blaze of flames shot through the air then entered the artificial abyss.

Duaaar!

A large explosion occurred shortly after, a blaze of heat filled the artificial abyss and its length also extended to exceed one kilometer.

Li Hao landed several tens of meters away from the ravine, with a considerable distance he could still feel the heat as if he was near the lava of a volcano.

"I thought the impact would be much more dire, apparently not..."

Though Li Hao had already used up almost part of his Qi, but the impact was not up to his expectations.

"Well, stop... The important thing is that he's dead and those old men are safe, too." Li Hao turned to the campsite a good distance away, "By the way, they ran away, huh?"

"Haaa... I can't believe the guards are betraying." Li Hao had actually put a little bit of suspicion on We Chi but he was still surprised by that, "Lucky I only drank a few sips, just to say the least, I can't imagine how big an effect it would be if I drank half of it or even ran out."

Li Hao then looked at the system screen and found a notification that he had completed the mission and levelled up, his level rising by 10 levels so that he was now at level 228.

"Motor..." Li Hao muttered, then closed the system screen and went to the encampment.

There, Li Hao found that the parents were still asleep or rather asleep as a result of a high dose of sleeping pills. Not only were they sleeping like that, but the two horses transporting them were also in the same condition.

"Well, I'm fighting it out and you're even good at sleeping? That's nasty..." Li Hao shook his head slowly, then boarded the horse carriage and inspected one of them, "Hm, it looks like they will wake up later in the day or maybe later tonight..."

"Well, that doesn't matter. Besides, I also need time to rest..." Li Hao looked at his clothes which were almost mostly filled with blood, "Haaa... At this price new clothes, if I knew as many attackers as I was supposed to wear my old clothes."

Li Hao momentarily regretted that, then got off the horse carriage to change his dirty clothes. But before that, he had first recovered the outer wounds he had received from the previous battle.

......................

"It's so fresh..." Li Hao lay down near the campfire he had just lit, "Fortunately I kept a few buckets of water in the inventory, I can't imagine how smelly I would be if I had to wait until I got to Luzin."

Li Hao looked at the still pitch-black sky before sighing deeply, "When I hide my identity, where should I go?" he murmured curiously, "Should I look for a place that looks like a Forest Without Edge to be even stronger? But, it's pretty risky to do it..."

Li Hao continued to think about it until the sun began to rise and the dark sky had been replaced with a bright light. When he heard something from the horse carriage, he immediately woke up and found one of the old men already awake but in confusion.

"What happened last night...? My head hurts a lot." The fat old man complained, then circulated his gaze and found Li Hao staring at him from below, "You... Where the guards are, I don't see them around here."

"Haaa... Let me explain, please prepare yourself." Li Hao let out a long sigh through his mouth, then explained the events that happened last night.

The fat old man slightly widened his eyes, it was hard to believe Li Hao's words because the bodyguards called traitors were from a famous Bureau.

Seeing the old man in disbelief, Li Hao could only raise his shoulders indifferently, "As much as you want to believe it or not, but that is the truth, Master Qian."

"Ugh.." mister Qian held his head in pain, he just remembered that last night there was one of the bodyguards who offered him some beer to drink, "Is this the reason why my head hurts so much? Tsk, even though I only drank one gulp."

"You better rest for a while, I will wait here until the two horses come to a realization." Li Hao said calmly.

"What...? The horse fainted too?" mister Qian put on a slightly surprised expression.

Li Hao himself only gave a small nod in response, and a moment passed finally mister Qian rested after taking the pill to speed up the recovery of the pain in his head, however he remained wary of Li Hao's presence as he still could not trust the young man completely.

Li Hao did not care much because he was in the right position, he again lay down near the campfire and waited for the other old man to wake up.

......................

Waiting for several hours, one by one the parents on the horse carriage woke up in a confused condition. Mr. Qian had previously recounted the events told by Li Hao, and they were immediately shocked by it.

A look of disbelief was shown to Li Hao, while the young man showed just how many corpses were around there and one of them was the bodyguard of the White Horse Bureau.

"He's... Otherwise the name is We Chi, right?!"

One of the five old men was surprised, he knew her because the bodyguard was often active in interacting.

"Yes, he should have given you guys a beer last night, right?" Li Hao made sure, and they immediately nodded quickly.

"It's awful... Are you the one who hit them all?"

"Right, besides that I remember that some of them alluded to the name 'Wong'..."

"Wong...? That bastard! They've been planning this, huh?!" master Qian directly clenched both of his hands, Killing Intent even seeping out of his body.

Li Hao purposely said so because he wanted to confirm something and saw the reaction the five old men had in his brain answered questions.

"It turns out to be true, the feud between the two great clans..." Li Hao muttered, "It seems like I'm indirectly creating a new enemy."

Li Hao could only smile bitterly but on the other hand also felt happy because the more enemies the more missions the system gave.

After some time had passed, the old men finally decided to continue the journey. They intend to get to Luzin soon and hold the White Horse Bureau accountable for the matter.

In addition, they also raised several times the pay for Li Hao as a token of gratitude for taking the trouble to save them.

Of course Li Hao was delighted, but before they left from there he asked permission to bury all the corpses. If left unchecked, they will rot and it will pollute the surrounding environment.

The five old men were unwilling to allow it because Li Hao was the only bodyguard who was able to protect them during the trip to Luzin city.

Li Hao buried them in one hole and it only took less than ten minutes. After that, he climbed onto the coachman's seat and rode a horse carriage that was previously done by one of the bodyguards other than himself.
