"My father doesn't know whether this is true or not, so he sent my sister to Shenwu City to visit His Majesty. She should be arriving in the next few days." Liu Ruyan was fiddling with the flame casually with a wooden stick in her hand.

"Don't worry, I'm here, sister will be fine." Li Xingyun comforted with a smile.

He knew that Liu Ruyan was just worried about the safety of her sister, Li Xingyun's sister-in-law Liu Wumei. Li Xingyun was not the only one who had gained some insights from the Sky Burial Domain.

The King of Beiliang seems powerful enough to threaten the throne, but after knowing these inside stories, Liu Ruyan knows very well that Beiliang is just a slightly larger chess piece!

"Well, I believe you." Liu Ruyan nodded with a smile.

While a few people were chatting, suddenly there was a sound of fighting.

"It seems like there are bandits robbing people on the road." Bai Jie tilted her head to listen and then turned back to explain to everyone.

"I'm free anyway, so I'll go over and take a look. Does anyone want to join me?" Li Xingyun clapped his hands, stood up, and looked at everyone.

"I'll go with you." Liu Ruyan stood up, and the others shook their heads.

Li Xingyun and Liu Ruyan haven't been alone for a long time, and everyone is deliberately creating space for them.

Seeing that no one wanted to join him, Li Xingyun took Liu Ruyan's hand and walked towards the source of the sound. Logically, there shouldn't be any robberies here, after all, there were more than 300 people here.

"Looks like a scholar?" After walking for a while, Liu Ruyan pointed to the front and said in a low voice.

Li Xingyun looked forward.

Two or three hundred meters ahead, there was a small group of bandits. There were not many bandits, only about ten of them. Among them was a man and a woman. The man was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing a long gown, and looked like a scholar.

Standing next to the man was a girl of about sixteen or seventeen. The girl seemed very scared and shrank back, holding the man's arm tightly.

Li Xingyun expressed doubts about the business capabilities of these bandits. Who would rob scholars? They didn't look rich.

"My dear friends, we are just passers-by and we don't have much money. Please let us go!" The man dressed as a scholar took out a piece of straw paper and a brush, dipped it in a small pot at his waist, quickly wrote two lines of words, and spread it out for the bandits to see.

Li Xingyun looked at the small pot on the man's waist. It should be filled with ink that had been ground long ago, so that he could write at any time.

"It's quite interesting. A mute scholar, I've never seen such a thing before." Li Xingyun smiled and shook his head and continued to walk forward, watching the excitement.

"What?" A bandit leader leaned over to take a closer look.

"Fuck you, what are you looking at? Do you even know him?" A leader behind the bandits kicked him on the butt and cursed.

"Hehe..." The bandit who was kicked scratched his head embarrassedly and kept grinning at the leader.

"You are a fool, kid. If we could read, we could still become bandits!" The leader became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He felt that his dignity was offended, so he pointed at the scholar and started cursing.

puff!

Liu Ruyan, who was standing by, couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard this. At this time, the two of them were less than ten meters behind the group of bandits. The sudden laughter immediately caught their attention.

"Who?" Several bandits immediately turned around and looked at Li Xingyun and the others.

"Sorry, I couldn't help it. You guys continue, we came over to see the fun." Li Xingyun waved his hands and smiled, signaling the bandits to continue with their own business, indicating that he would not disturb them.

"You guys are smart." The younger brother who had just been kicked turned his head triumphantly and really didn't intend to pay any attention to Li Xingyun and the others.

"Hand over the money quickly, and leave that woman with you." The younger brother turned around and looked at the scholar again, threatening him fiercely.

"You are such a fucking idiot! Don't bother with him, let them make fun of us. Besides, that woman is so cool, we have to bring her back to warm the beds of our brothers!" The bandit leader slapped his younger brother hard on the back of his head again.

Li Xingyun couldn't help but suspect that this little brother was so stupid because he was beaten by the bandit leader every day!

"Yes! Take them all back!" The younger brother nodded and bowed quickly.

"Boy, leave your money and this woman behind, and then crawl through my pants, and I will let you go. How about it?" The bandit leader spoke arrogantly.

Li Xingyun and Liu Ruyan turned a deaf ear to the bandits' words. The gap in their levels was too big, so it was unnecessary to pay attention to each other.

The two men did not respond, but the mute scholar behind them became anxious. He took out another piece of straw paper, picked up the brush and started writing.

After writing, seeing that no one paid attention to him, he reached out and patted the bandit leader's shoulder.

"Fuck...are you fucking crazy!" The bandit leader was about to get angry at Li Xingyun and the others for ignoring him, but was interrupted by the mute scholar. He immediately became furious!

Seeing the mute scholar waving straw paper in front of him, he became even more annoyed and snatched the straw paper and tore it into pieces.

"Fuck! I've already told you, you can't read! You're still writing endlessly, I think you're looking for death!"

The bandit leader angrily cursed the mute scholar. He could not read, but Li Xingyun could.

The words just written on the paper were not gentle!

"Let them both go, and you guys get out of here too, or else! Die!!!"

Seeing that the bandit leader was still talking nonsense, the mute scholar's face gradually became gloomy. Just when the other party was about to put the knife on his neck, the mute scholar came to life.

The soft brush in his hand instantly turned into a sharp dagger, and pierced into the throat of the bandit leader without mercy. Then he pulled it out immediately and stabbed the other bandits again. In just a dozen breaths, many bandits were holding their throats and struggling to death!

After doing all this, the mute scholar had no intention of attacking Li Xingyun and the others, but instead began to write quickly with the blood-stained brush.

Li Xingyun was not in a hurry and just watched quietly.

[The bandits have been eliminated. You are safe now. Go home!]

Looking at this line of words, Li Xingyun and Liu Ruyan looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths rose a little at the same time. This mute scholar is really an interesting person!

"We are not in a hurry. Where are you going so late? If it's on your way, we can go together." Li Xingyun asked.

Isn’t this mute scholar the perfect candidate to inherit the Mo language?

Now that the bandits were dead, the woman behind the mute scholar was no longer so scared. She stuck her head out and looked at the two of them curiously.

Seeing that the two men did not seem to be bad people, the mute scholar did not hide anything and quickly wrote another line of content and handed it to Li Xingyun.

【Let’s go to Shenwu City! 】

"Haha...what a coincidence, we are also going to Shenwu City, shall we go together?" Li Xingyun laughed and invited.
