Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 89 Bounty

swoosh~

Han Yi found a stream in the mountains and washed himself all over. After checking his body with a scent-finding insect and finding no odor, he quickly rushed out of the mountains and ran towards Anyan City.

As for the fragrance-seeking insect inside the green bamboo tube, Han Yi had already examined it and found it to be just an ordinary insect, without any yin energy that it could absorb.

After much deliberation, he decided to destroy it.

After all, the scent-seeking insect might have characteristics he didn't know about. If he carried it with him, it might be noticed by the person behind the scenes, causing him to alert them. It would be better to give it up!

We'll be reaching Anyan City soon.

Today, instead of entering through the west gate belonging to the Crimson Flame Sect, he took a detour and arrived at the north gate.

After thinking for a long time, Han Yi decided to return to the city.

Needless to say, the wilderness is fraught with danger, and the area around Anyan City is no longer safe either.

Take the official roads for example. Recently, the Black Wind Bandits have been rampaging through the area. He had heard from the manager of Fulinlou that all the official roads outside the city had been robbed by the Black Wind Bandits.

After that, the Crimson Flame Sect and several other major powers joined forces to send people to patrol the official road in an attempt to protect the caravan.

Strangely enough, the Black Wind Stronghold bandits always managed to find a weak point in the guards to attack the caravan, causing headaches for several large trading companies.

Therefore, these bandits not only did not quiet down, but became even more rampant.

Looking back now, it's no wonder that the Crimson Flame Sect had high-ranking spies like Elder Li, and other forces might also have spies from the Black Wind Stronghold. Under such circumstances, it's no wonder they couldn't protect the caravan!

Therefore, Han Yi did not intend to act rashly before knowing the strength of these bandits.

Therefore, even if there are treacherous people like Elder Li in Anyan City, the fact that they are sneaking around and dare not expose themselves means that there must be someone who can keep them in check. At the very least, as long as we act carefully, the city is still relatively safe!

On the north side of Anyan City, a tall man, much taller than the average person, walked towards the city gate.

He was completely wrapped in an ill-fitting, oversized robe, with a tattered cloth wrapped around his head, revealing only his eyes; he didn't look like a good person.

He was carrying a round object in his hand, with blood seeping out of the black cloth, and even a few drops of blood dripping out. He looked like a notorious bandit who had just committed murder and arson, his whole body exuding ferocity.

At this time, at the North Gate, many farmers were already queuing up with melons and fruits and pushing carts full of vegetables, waiting to enter the city.

The crowd, which had been queuing noisily and pushing anxiously to enter the city, lowered their heads and spontaneously made way for the big man as he approached.

Clang!

The guards at the city gate unconsciously gripped their sword hilts tightly, and some of the more timid ones even drew their standard long swords early on.

"Come, who goes there?"

A guard who looked like a squad leader mustered his courage and shouted.

patter

A token was left on the table where the soldiers were registering.

"Martial Alliance..."

"Lord Niu, please come in!"

But after the big man showed his Martial Alliance identification badge, the gatekeeper breathed a long sigh of relief. It turned out he was someone who made a living off the Martial Alliance's bounties; no wonder he was so fierce.

The squad leader bowed respectfully and signaled for the gate to be opened.

"Hmm." The burly man nodded slightly and strode away.

"I really envy those powerful martial artists. I heard that completing a bounty can earn at least several dozen taels of silver, which is equivalent to several years' salary for us..."

One of the guards said sourly.

"Wang Er, if you have that ability, I'll grant you permission to leave the team right now!"

"Hehe, Captain, you know my capabilities. Besides, completing those bounties would mean risking my life. Nothing beats the comfort of having my wife, kids, and a warm bed..."

"Then why don't you hurry up and register them!"

The squad leader gave Wang Er a sharp rap on the head.

"Phew, finally in town..."

Han Yi looked at the bustling crowds in the city and slowly exhaled.

He was really afraid that before he even entered Anyan City, Elder Li would suddenly make a move and slap him to death!

After all, Elder Li's cooperation with Black Wind Stronghold was superficial, and his intention to deal with Han Yi was merely speculation.

Just in case, he didn't enter through the west gate belonging to the Crimson Flame Sect, but went to the north gate instead. He even disguised his appearance by using the clothes that the bandits wore.

But when he arrived at the North Gate, he was a little worried because he didn't have any travel permits or tokens!

He used to be able to enter and exit the West Gate at will, all because of his status as a disciple of the Crimson Flame Sect!

Fortunately, Han Yi searched his body for a long time and found a waist token given by the Martial Alliance.

This was the name tag he gave to the officers when he last went to the Martial Alliance to collect Wu Awei's bounty, using the pseudonym "Niu Li"!

"Wu Awei, even in death you can still shine and make contributions. I am deeply grateful. I will definitely go to your grave to burn some paper money for you another day!"

Han Yi made a decision.

Ruidefang, Martial Alliance.

People come and go at the entrance of the Martial Alliance. On both sides stand stone lions, each taller than a person, with bared teeth and claws. The plaque above the gate has two large gilded characters, "Martial Alliance," which looks very impressive!

Tear!

Han Yi walked easily to the notice board in the lobby and casually picked up a wanted poster.

He planned to collect the bounty for Tie Sha first. He was carrying a blood-dripping package, and he felt disgusted with himself.

'Wanted: Outside An'yan City, in the Black Rock Mountains, Tie Sha, the second-in-command of Black Wind Stronghold, status unknown, strength: early stage of Blood Refinement, skilled in swordsmanship, reward: two hundred taels of silver.'

"Look, look! Tie Sha's bounty poster has been removed!"

"Is Zun Du fake?" "Of course it's fake! And what's that man holding? Could it be the head of that Iron Killer?"

"How is this possible? Could it be that a martial artist in the Meridian Opening stage made a move?"

In an instant, the already noisy lobby became as chaotic as a quarrel in a vegetable market.

Martial Alliance, back hall.

The back hall is a place specifically set up by the Martial Alliance for bounty missions.

At this moment, a burly man, two meters tall and with a fierce demeanor, stood in front of the counter, preparing to hand over the task to the official.

In his right hand, he held a massive, incredibly sharp axe with a blade shaped like two crescent moons.

The axe was still stained with steaming hot blood, which dripped onto the ground.

The official witnessed this scene, but his expression remained unchanged, still extremely respectful. The burly man made no attempt to conceal himself, revealing his true face directly, clearly demonstrating his great confidence in his abilities.

"Lord Feng, please take your reward."

After confirming the deceased's identity, the officials presented the thirty taels of silver with both hands.

"Ah."

Feng Wu gave a casual reply and put the silver into his pocket.

For a professional bounty hunter like him, thirty taels of silver is just a small task!
