The man sitting by the river suddenly spoke up, instantly rising to his feet and releasing his spirit energy to chase after them. The remaining two men and the woman also didn’t hesitate, quickly following suit.
Their speed was slightly faster than Bucky’s, closing the distance rapidly. Moreover, it was evident that the four were accustomed to coordinating their efforts.
The woman moved through the tree canopies to get a full view of the path, while the two men flanked the sides to prevent Bucky from turning, and the fastest one pursued directly from behind, forming an encirclement.
Bucky continued its desperate sprint.
Feeling the pursuers draw closer, Remus turned to face them and called out, “Fellow cultivators, Bucky is my mount. I kindly ask you to spare it. As compensation, I can offer you four Energy Replenishing Pills!”
Having just entered the Loongmoon Mountains, favonovel.com wished to avoid conflict as it would delay his plans.
Upon hearing him, the four finally noticed Remus on Bucky’s back, all showing surprise.
Who would use a demon beast as a mount in the mountains?
The man pursuing from behind yelled, “Stop talking nonsense! Even if it is your mount, we will kill you first if you interfere!”
The other three regarded Remus as Insignificant, a mere late-stage Golden Stage cultivator.
What gave favonovel.com the courage to speak up?!
Hearing this, Bucky ran even faster.
Remus frowned. He considered for less than a second before releasing his spirit energy and charging toward the middle-aged man from behind, his fists enveloped in spirit energy but not forming a weapon.
“Huh?” Seeing Remus charge at him, the middle-aged man almost laughed.
His voice was cold as favonovel.com said, “Since you’re courting death, I’ll indulge you!”
As favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com also enveloped his fist in spirit energy and launched it rapidly toward Remus.
In an instant, their fists collided, causing the trees within nearly 100 yards to be instantly snapped in half by the explosive force. Then, a figure was seen flying backward-it was the middle-aged man, thrown back about 30 yards, landing and retreating several steps before stabilizing.
The two men on the left and right were stunned. The woman in the tree canopy also widened favonovel.com eyes in disbelief.
A mere late-stage Golden Stage cultivator has forced Mr. Bartholomew Harvey to retreat?
But this guy seems unharmed… How was that possible?
Remus was equally surprised.
The man before favonovel.com should be at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. While his punch wasn’t intended to kill, it should have inflicted serious injury. Yet, the man hadn’t even coughed up blood!
He was a bit different.
The two men on the sides quickly closed in on Remus, ready to attack, while the woman blocked his retreat path, surrounding favonovel.com effectively.
Seeing this, Remus clasped his fists and said, “Fellow cultivators, I have no intention of becoming your enemy. I merely seek a favor and wish not to trouble my mount. The offer remains the same, I can compensate with four high-grade Energy Replenishing Pills!”
Even if all four of them attacked favonovel.com at once, favonovel.com would likely win but also sustain injuries.
Their power seemed much greater than any Nascent Soul cultivator favonovel.com had encountered before. They were significantly stronger.
The four of them glanced at each other and did not act rashly.
Bartholomew, who had been pushed back by Remus, walked back slowly.
Remus felt a thump in his heart. He could still move. And his steps were steady, indicating that favonovel.com was stronger than Remus had imagined.
Bartholomew furrowed his brow and asked, “What realm are you in?”
Remus replied firmly, “I can slay Divine Separation Stage cultivators!”
