"I am Jiang Lei, Master of the Eagle Martial Arts School. Thank you for saving my life, young sir."
The middle-aged man stared at Lin Langtian, who had descended from the heavens to hammer and kill two Leopard Crocodile Kings. His expression was stunned for a moment before he quickly stepped forward, cupped his fists, and said.
With the deaths of the two Leopard Crocodile Kings, the surrounding hundred Demonic Beasts completely collapsed and retreated in disarray. Within minutes, all the Demonic Beasts had fled.
Seeing this, the members of the Eagle Martial Arts School also stared dumbfounded at the green-shirted youth before them.
At such a young age, he could instantly kill a Shaping Realm Demonic Beast. Could this person be one of the top geniuses of the Great Yan Dynasty?
"Mm." Lin Langtian jumped off the Leopard Crocodile King and chuckled, "There's no need to be so polite, sir. I am Lin Tian. I'm lost here. Could you possibly guide me?"
Lin Langtian's name was too famous. When traveling, he didn't want to attract too much attention, so he chose to use a different name.
As for the group before him, Lin Langtian recalled and found them familiar. It seemed that in his original timeline, Lin Dong had met them and they weren't bad people, which was why Lin Langtian chose to help.
"You saved our lives, young sir. This small matter is certainly possible." At this moment, the beautiful woman also walked up, holding the little girl's hand. Her beautiful eyes swept over Lin Langtian, and she smiled charmingly.
"Sister, how can someone as powerful as big brother get lost?" the exquisitely carved little girl whispered from the side.
Hearing this, Lin Langtian choked. He had never been to this Misty Forest before, and even his Spiritual Power was blocked. Due to his carelessness, he had lost his direction.
The beautiful woman shot the little girl a look and said softly, "Yinyin, if you can't speak properly, don't speak. This young sir is from out of town, so it's normal for him to get lost in the Misty Forest."
At this time, the middle-aged man also chuckled and cupped his fists towards Lin Langtian, "Young sir, this is my eldest daughter, Jiang Xue, and this is my youngest daughter, Jiang Yinyin. Yinyin is still young and doesn't understand things, so I hope you'll forgive her. As for guiding you, you saved the lives of my entire martial arts school, so consider it done."
"Thank you, old brother. You can just call me Lin Tian from now on."
Lin Langtian smiled. This was the first group he had encountered in days, and he naturally wouldn't let them go easily. He really didn't want to stay in this damned place any longer.
With someone to guide him, Lin Langtian completely relaxed his mind. All he had to do was follow this large group to get out of the troublesome Misty Forest.
Sitting in the relatively most luxurious carriage in the group, Lin Langtian ignored the surprised glances cast his way by the disciples of the Eagle Martial Arts School.
Back in the Lin Clan, he had long been accustomed to such looks of awe and admiration.
"Big brother, you killed the Leopard Crocodile King with one punch just now. You're so amazing, and you're so handsome too. You're nothing like those guys in the martial arts school who look good but are useless."
Beside him, little Yinyin stared at Lin Langtian with her large eyes full of admiration, almost as if stars were twinkling in them.
"Heh heh, you've said that dozens of times already..." Lin Langtian chuckled as he patted the little girl's head.
"Yinyin, don't disturb big brother while he's resting." The graceful figure walked over gently. The woman named Jiang Xue tapped little Yinyin's head with her jade hand, her voice carrying a hint of scolding.
Lin Langtian looked up. Jiang Xue's long hair was slightly messy from the intense battle during the day. There were some bloodstains on the fair skin revealed by her clothes, but she didn't look disheveled. Instead, she had a very special charm.
Perhaps because he had saved the Eagle Martial Arts School, this seemingly proud woman's clear and beautiful face did not show the usual coldness she displayed towards the martial arts school's disciples. Instead, there was a hint of gentleness.
With light eyebrows and simple makeup, this woman, while not as stunningly beautiful as Ling Qingzhu, possessed her own unique allure.
Their eyes met briefly. Looking at Lin Langtian's handsome face, Jiang Xue paused before quickly looking away, a faint blush appearing on her pretty face. She then lowered her head slightly and took two steps back.
"Heh heh, Young Master Lin Tian, we only have one more day before we leave the Misty Forest." Jiang Lei, riding his horse, came to the carriage and said to Lin Langtian with a smile.
A day passed in the blink of an eye. When the warm sunlight once again broke through the mist and shone upon their bodies, the exhausted members of the Eagle Martial Arts School let out cheers of survival.
Lin Langtian stood on the carriage, feeling the warmth of the sun on his body, a smile on his face.
He gazed into the distance. Great Desolate Commandery, he had finally arrived.
"Young Master Lin Tian, why don't you come back to Great Eagle City with us first? Since you're new here, I think it's best to rest for a while in Great Eagle City."
Jiang Lei was clearly quite happy to have escaped the Misty Forest. He smiled, then turned to Lin Langtian in the carriage and said.
Hearing this, Lin Langtian pondered for a moment before nodding.
Although his purpose was to capture the Demonic Spirit of the Ancient Dragon Ape, it wouldn't run away. It was better to rest in Great Eagle City first and conserve his energy.
Seeing Lin Langtian nod, Jiang Lei was clearly quite excited. After letting everyone rest properly, they set off again. The caravan, carrying a full load of spoils, headed towards Great Eagle City.
Great Eagle City was located northeast of Great Desolate Commandery. It was somewhat close to the border, but this did not affect Great Eagle City's prosperity.
Cities like this, while not comparable to Lin City, were considered mid-tier within the Great Yan Dynasty.
By the time the caravan arrived at Great Eagle City, it was already approaching evening. Lin Langtian looked at the majestic city before him and nodded.
Under Lin Langtian's gaze, the caravan slowly entered the city.
However, just as the caravan was about to enter the city center, Lin Langtian noticed the caravan's pace slow down. He looked up and saw a group of people approaching them not far ahead.
On the chests of these people was a martial arts school badge, embroidered with a blood-red vulture.
"Blood Vulture Martial Arts School." Seeing this, Jiang Lei, at the head of the caravan, his expression turned extremely grim.
"Heh heh, so it's the people from the Eagle Martial Arts School. What a coincidence. I thought you wouldn't be able to get out of the Misty Forest."
At the forefront of the Blood Vulture Martial Arts School group, a middle-aged man stood on his horse. He was lean, dressed in thin clothes, with deep-set eyes. Although a faint smile played on his lips, his eyes were extremely sinister.
Lin Langtian stood up, looking at the two martial arts schools on the verge of conflict. He raised an eyebrow, then shook his head.
Wherever he went, there was conflict. Was he also enjoying the protagonist's treatment?
