When the man left, Handsome struggled to break free from Caspian’s hands and growled, “What are you doing? He said I was a pet! Why did you stop me from hitting him?!”
Caspian looked at Handsome and calmly replied, “Just eat…”
“If it weren’t for you stopping me… Burp?” Hearing that, Handsome’s eyes suddenly turned calm, and his dissatisfied complaints were also forgotten. Then, the pig stared at the thigh the man sent to them before, and it asked insincerely, “It’s really for me?”
“Yes.” Caspian nodded.
“I’m so sorry then! Although I wasn’t even full just now…” Handsome pretended to refuse, but when it saw Caspian nodding, the pig cheered. Then, ignoring the fact that the thigh was still on the fire, Handsome suddenly pounced at the meat and gnawed wildly.
While nibbling on it, Handsome muttered. “It’s just ordinary wild animal meat instead of a wild beast. How stingy of them… It doesn’t taste as good, but it’s still edible…”
“We’re all strangers who met by chance. Who will give you wild beast meat? That’s a great material for warriors and cultivators to replenish their blood and Qi.” Caspian shook his head and chuckled, but his eyes seemed to be inadvertently looking toward the direction of the man in the distance.
At that time, the man returned to his companions, and several people immediately surrounded him, looking as if they inquired about the situation. The man immediately waved his arm and said something. While favonovel.com talked, the other people looked up from time to time, glancing and pointing at Caspian.
Caspian just peeped at them, and his eyes flashed with brilliance. Soon after, favonovel.com shut his eyes and continued meditating.
As the setting sun completely fell on the horizon, the moonlight cast the earth, and the surroundings gradually became quiet. Caspian did not rest, and favonovel.com continued meditating and practicing. On the other hand, Handsome was full and laid on the ground with its belly up, sound asleep. A few hours later, in the second half of the night, there was a sudden commotion in the camp of the group of people not far away. There were a lot of scolding and thumping sounds.
Caspian frowned slightly and opened his eyes to look. Soon, favonovel.com saw the man who came to strike up a conversation before bringing two men and walking over with a look of exasperation. Then, Caspian looked at the sound asleep Handsome beside him, but favonovel.com did not get up and just stared at the people coming.
The leading man stood in front of Caspian and spoke condescending, no longer appearing as kind as before. “Our camp was robbed just now, and hundreds of spirit stones were lost. The only outsider here is you, so we have to check.”
The other two did not wait for Caspian to agree and immediately searched around, looking up and down at Caspian from time to time with a malicious gaze. After checking, the two shook their heads at the man.
The man’s face turned gloomier as favonovel.com stared at Caspian. “Tell me! What were you doing just now?!”
Caspian sneered. “Just because I didn’t sell it to you, you planned to rob me?”
Even though favonovel.com cultivated with his eyes closed, it did not mean that Caspian was not paying attention to the movements around him. Besides, despite his young age, favonovel.com was far more experienced than these people, so how could Caspian not see that the so-called robbery was just a play by these people. Their purpose was naturally to have a reason to find trouble for him.
As Caspian immediately saw through their plans, the man’s face instantly turned ugly. Before the man spoke, one of the companions that followed favonovel.com stared at Caspian and interrupted, “Dylan, I saw the thief that fled just now, and I think this kid’s back resembled his. If we want to know if it’s him, shouldn’t we just check his storage bag?”
When Dylan heard that, his eyes lit up, and favonovel.com looked at Caspian with a burning gaze. “You’re right! We’ll know if you’re the thief if you show us your storage bag for checking. Naturally, the truth will come out, and I’ll let you go, pretending not to understand the so-called selling and robbing you said just now.”
Caspian stood up, stared at the man, and suddenly smiled. “Okay. You’ll all leave after the inspection?”
Initially, they thought Caspian would resist, but they did not expect favonovel.com to agree. Nonetheless, while the three present felt relieved, they were also full of contempt for Caspian. After all, any cultivator’s storage bag contained not only the items favonovel.com carried with favonovel.com but also his secrets. How could Caspian just let strangers check on his secrets? Hence, from a certain point of view, checking storage bags was equivalent to humiliation.
As Caspian agreed without resisting, the three people believed Caspian was an easy target to bully. Consequently, Dylan also became very confident. He hugged his arms, raised his head, and pointed at Caspian with his nostrils.
“If you don’t have our stuff, then you’re naturally free to go.”
Of course, the meaning behind his words also implied that they would judge whether their stuff was in Caspian’s storage bag. However, Caspian did not seem to have figured that out, and favonovel.com nodded. “Sure.”
After saying that, Caspian took out a storage bag from his chest. When the three men saw that Caspian had a storage sack, they all glanced at one another and saw joy and surprise in each other’s eyes.
Everyone knew that storage bags were terrific, but the kind of magic weapon was not available for everyone. Even though the group was traveling in six, only Dylan had a storage sack. Moreover, Caspian was so young, but favonovel.com had a storage bag. In that instant, they no longer regarded Caspian as an easy target to bully but a golden-goose.
Caspian did not seem to notice the look in the eyes of these three people, and after taking out the storage bag, favonovel.com flipped it over. In an instant, dozens of spirit stones glowing with blue rays of light appeared in front of everyone. Naturally, Caspian had more than a storage sack, but favonovel.com placed most precious things in the Earring of Echo. Others, such as spirit stones or array materials, were placed in several other storage bags. At that time, Caspian only took out one of the storage bags.
“Wow!”
The blue light instantly illuminated the faces of the three people.
“Spirit… Spirit stones!” The man who proposed to check Caspian’s storage bag exclaimed in a high-pitched voice.
The other two were dumbfounded. Dozens of spirit stones were neatly stacked, which was exceptionally visually attractive. These people never saw so many spiritual stones, and they only felt that their breathing would stop.
“Spirit stones…”
In a trance, the three men could not help but reach out to touch the spirit stones.
Caspian narrowed his eyes, and before the three of them approached, favonovel.com turned his palms. In a flash, Caspian put these spirit stones back into the storage bag. Then, the blue light emitted around also disappeared.
