On 15th of August.
August was supposed to be the hottest period of the year. However, since the Setting Sun Gate was located in the north of the entire Lunia, even at noon, when the sun was shining, the road between the mountains and forests would not make people feel hot.
This road was the official road to Lunia. However, because there was no big cities nearby, no one passed by under normal circumstances. But today, a motorcade appeared on this road.
The motorcade was composed of five horse carriages. On the mottled official road, they moved forward unhurriedly. From the looks of it, this was a merchant group that was rarely seen. If they had not been walking on this remote official road at this moment, no one would have looked at them. Because it was too ordinary.
After walking for a distance, the coachman in charge of driving on the front bus pulled off a piece of cloth covering his face, revealing his fair and fat face.
“Senior Brother…”
As soon as the fat man uttered the two words, favonovel.com was stopped by someone beside favonovel.com with a stern look.
Lion Morgan reacted in an instant and quickly changed his address. “Shopkeeper, are we being too careful since we act like this?”
The driver was Lion Morgan, the deputy head of the Setting Sun Gate. Next to favonovel.com was the head of the Setting Sun Gate, Jones Henry.
Most of Jones Henry’s face was covered with a cloth, and his eyes were also narrowed, as if favonovel.com was taking a nap because of the long way. However, only Lion Morgan, who was sitting next to him, knew that his Senior Brother, the head of the sect, had been watching a radius of more than a dozen miles without any slack. However, it was also because of this that Lion Morgan became more and more confused.
Who were they? They were cultivators of Heavenly Spirit Realm!
Since they were cultivators of Heavenly Spirit Realm, why did they have to be so secretive?
What’s more, the path they were taking now was within the boundaries of the Setting Sun Gate. In other words, with their status, they could walk freely on this land, climb and roll, and no one would say anything.
It was just a deal with shape-shifting demons and exchange resources with each other. The two sides could find a secret place to fly over and exchange for a while. Then they could go back to their own homes. How relaxed and easy it was!
But now, they were merchants dressed as mortals and walking slowly on the official road. Wasn’t it unnecessary and making trouble for themselves?
And at such a slow speed, Lion Morgan couldn’t stand it anymore, so favonovel.com asked.
“Five shopkeepers,” Jones Henry said lightly.
“Hmm?” Lion Morgan was confused.
He knew that when they came out this time, not only did they have to learn from ordinary businessmen, but they also changed the way they addressed each other. All Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivators were replaced by shopkeepers, while Jones Henry was the chief manager. The dozen or so trusted Holy Land Realm disciples who came with them were all shop assistants.
Lion Morgan knew each word Jones Henry said just now. But when favonovel.com put them together, favonovel.com didn’t understand what it had to do with the question favonovel.com just asked.
“What do you mean?” Lion Morgan couldn’t help asking again.
Jones Henry’s narrowed eyes slowly opened a gap. In an instant, the blade-like cold light rushed over. Lion Morgan felt his scalp tingle and couldn’t help but shrink back. However, Jones Henry didn’t seem to blame him.
He still said in a faint voice, “Since you don’t understand, I’ll change another way. Don’t you worry about those demons?”
“Of course not,” Lion Morgan shook his head without hesitation.
Not only Lion Morgan, but also all the people present were very careful to prevent demons from making a sneak attack.
“It’s because we’re worried about them that we agreed to make a deal in Ox-Head Valley,” Lion Morgan added, “It’s open on all sides and no one can play tricks there.”
“Yes, I’m also very wary of demons, so I asked the five of us to come together,” Jones Henry said, “Five Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivators, even if demons want to play tricks, they should think twice. Since the five of us come together, do you think we all show our identities and appear in front of demons or not to let the demons understand how many of us come? Which one do you think is more deterrent?”
Lion Morgan thought for a while and immediately understood. He stood up and looked at the carriages behind him.
He and Jones Henry were sitting at the front of the car, with goods on the three carriages behind them. Of course, those in the carriage were all common merchants.
As for the other three Elders of Setting Sun Gate, Angela Lia, Ria Dam, and Polo Danie were all sitting in the last carriage. But, if one used his divine thoughts to explore, favonovel.com could only perceive one Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivator in the last carriage. The other two withdrew their auras.
“I understand,” Lion Morgan nodded and sat down again. “Brilliant! The chief manager’s idea is brilliant! It makes those demons whose minds are full of muscles and bones dare not have any other thoughts.”
“Yes, we must be careful, especially when Holly Logan suddenly disappeared. We have to be more careful,” Jones Henry said lightly.
Hearing the words ‘Holly Logan’, Lion Morgan’s body suddenly trembled. In fact, favonovel.com should be the first one to find Holly Logan missing. However, at that time, favonovel.com had other thoughts and did not tell Jones Henry about it. When others found that Holly Logan was gone, Lion Morgan chose to keep silent in order not to take the responsibility himself. Therefore, at this time, favonovel.com was very guilty about this issue.
What made Lion Morgan feel lucky was that Jones Henry did not continue to talk about this problem.
“Forget it. Holly Logan is about to die. He should know that there are also treasures in the goods we exchanged with demons to help favonovel.com extend his life. So as long as he’s not stupid, favonovel.com won’t betray us. Maybe there is something else so that favonovel.com must hide first ”
After a pause, Jones Henry continued, “Anyway, it won’t be long before our plan is completed. What we need to do now is to focus on the following time.”
He glanced at Lion Morgan and asked, “How far away are we from our destination?”
“We have just passed through the forest. If we continue forward for an hour, we will arrive at the Shadowmoon Lake. At this speed, we will be able to reach the Ox-Head Valley in about four hours,” Lion Morgan hurriedly said.
“Okay,” Jones Henry nodded. “You ask Angela Lia and the others to be careful. The further we go, the more vigilant we should be.”
“They can tell the severity of the matter,” Lion Morgan said immediately.
At the thought of the closing deal, favonovel.com could not help but look excited. After spending so much effort and worrying for several months, favonovel.com even committed the crime of killing the disciples of the Upper Sect to silence them in order to make sure that everything went well before the deal. It was just for this day!
Thinking of this, Lion Morgan suddenly felt itchy and couldn’t sit still.
The motorcade continued to move forward. An hour later, a calm lake appeared in front of them.
