ng and fled far away.The distance between them, which was already close, was now pulled apart significantly.“I'll see how far you can run!”The members of the Heavenly Path Alliance were seething with...After crossing several more mountains, Qin Sang approached the main road and found a place with a wide view to rest his horse.

According to intelligence, the caravan of the Eastern Yang County Lord was stationed in Kun City last night and departed early this morning. It is now past midday, and they should be here soon.

Qin Sang grabbed the ironwood stick. This stick was made of a type of ironwood with a wooden core, which Qin Sang bought at the ferry landing. Its hardness was comparable to that of an iron rod, and it had excellent flexibility. Someone had polished it into a comfortable stick.

One end of the wooden stick was left with a hole, just need to wind the flag surface of the Yama's banner, insert it into the hole, point outwards, and finally tie it tightly with cloth strips. It would be a strange spear.

Qin Sang had confirmed that ordinary humans could indeed not see the King of Hell, but one couldn't be too reckless. One had to cover up in front of people, otherwise, if a celestial master who eliminated demons and exorcised spirits came across them, they would die unjustly.

The city of Sānmù faces east, with countless mountains stretching endlessly. This road winds over hills and valleys, crossing several rivers along the way, making it a truly arduous journey. Traveling merchants would rather take the northern route via Línwù City, adding two days to their trip, than travel this path. Therefore, there are not many pedestrians on the road.

Qin Sang not only focused on the intersection but also looked around, but he didn't see anyone who resembled Jiangshan Lou's informant.

Watching the sun approach midday, despite it being autumn, the heat of the sun was still intense. Qin Sang silently recited the Pure Land Sutra and patiently waited. Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he straightened up.

At the end of the road, a convoy appeared.

Several freight wagons were covered with black tarpaulins, followed by two passenger carriages. There were over twenty mounted guards outside.

These guards disguised themselves as鏢師, wearing swords and daggers on their bodies. Their eyes were sharp and alert, looking very fierce. There seemed to be figures lurking in the woods on both sides.

Their formation was very disciplined, moving along with the caravan without any disorder. They were arranged in an orderly manner around the caravan, ensuring they could cover all directions. From any angle, once enemy activity appeared, they could react immediately.

However, a closer look reveals that the focus of their protection is not the goods, but the people in the carriage.

Although they were still far away, Qin Sang could still see clearly that Bai Jianglan was leading the way at the front!

The water monkey Zhou Ning is also here.

As expected, it was them.

Qin Sang immediately mounted his horse, jerked the reins sharply, and with a whinny, the steed sprang from the forest, racing down the mountain. The sound of hooves thundered behind them.

"Who is it!"

"Halt!"

Before the carriage reached them, Qin Sang heard Bai Jianglan and the others shout.

Upon discovering Qin Sang, the convoy came to an abrupt halt. The guards instantly surrounded the carriage, drawing their swords and pointing them at Qin Sang.

Ahead, everything was brightly lit, with hidden crossbows in the shadows, and a chilling aura of killing intent.

“Oh!”

Qin Sang hurriedly reined in his horse and shouted loudly, "Big Brother Bai, Zhou Ning, it's me, I'm Qin Sang!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Bai Jianglan was startled. Upon closer inspection, he found Qin Sang's face strangely familiar. He suddenly remembered the young man he had rescued from a raft last year.

Last year, Qin Sangang escaped from a dangerous situation, covered in blood and looking very disheveled.

>

Now Qin Sang cultivates the Nether Scripture and practices boxing every day. His appearance and temperament have changed greatly compared to last year.

That's why Bai Jianglan didn't recognize him at first.

Bai Jianglan's side of the water monkeys also remembered, and excitedly shouted with a look of surprise.

“Truly, Brother Qin! Brother Qin, you haven't gone back home I thought I wouldn't see you again, but I didn't expect…”

Bai Jianglan held onto the water monkey, waved his hand backward, grabbed his sword and walked out two steps. He looked up and down at Qin Sang, his eyes flashed, and he politely said: "Brother Qin, I wonder why you stopped us"

He could tell that Qin Sang was coming for them.

Qin Sang could feel the alienation and vigilance in Bai Jianglan's tone, but he didn't mind. He dismounted, taking off the crossbow arrows, soft sword, and wooden stick from his body. He walked a few steps to Bai Jianglan's side and whispered, "Brother Bai, I have something important to report to Dongyang County Master!"

Bai Jianglan's face suddenly changed, "You!"

Qin Sang hurriedly waved his hand and glanced at the guards behind him. "Brother Bai, don't misunderstand. I only guessed the county lord's identity later, and I really have something important to report. There are many people here, and it's noisy. If Brother Bai trusts me, follow me over here."

Bái Jiānglán, confident in his martial arts skills, gave a hand gesture to those behind him and followed Qín Sāng to the roadside.

"The county lord's whereabouts are no longer a secret. There are assassins from Jiangshan Lou ambushing at Luoma Mountain, targeting the county lord. Qin Sang unexpectedly received the news and, thinking of the county lord and Big Brother Bai's life-saving grace, came to repay their kindness."

After speaking, Qin Sang quietly looked at Bai Jianglan.

Bai Jianglan remained expressionless, staring at Qin Sang. He looked for a while, and Qin Sang met his gaze calmly.

Just then, an old woman walked up behind him, her voice raspy, "Lord Bai, Miss asks you this: who is the visitor, and what business do they have to report"

Bai Jianglan stared at Qin Sang, taking a few steps back and whispering something in the old woman's ear.

The old woman's eyes flashed, she glanced at Qin Sang and said, "Please trouble General Bai to search the young man first. This old one will go back and report to the young mistress."

The old woman turned and went back.

Qin Sang let Bai Jianglan search him, the Nether Scripture, Yanluo Banner, and Wumu Sword, etc., were wrapped in packages and placed on his horse. Bai Jianglan indeed did not investigate further.

Moments later, the old crone’s voice boomed, "Attention all! Halt and rest your horses."

A few people quietly slipped into the woods, and then they saw an old woman accompanied by a young woman dressed as a man walking over.

When Qin Sang first saw this Dongyang County Princess, she was wearing a beautiful gourd-shaped hat adorned with jewels. Her features were exquisite, her figure tall and slender, dressed in silk, with an incredibly tiny waist. A peony cloud bun was tied around her waist, adorned with a piece of jade. At first glance, Qin Sang thought she was a handsome young man from a world of turmoil.

Qin Sang bowed politely and said, "Qin Sang pays respects to the County Princess."

Qin Sang secretly sized up the Dongyang County Princess, and the princess was also sizing him up.

East Yang County Princess nodded slightly, a faint smile on her lips, and said to Bai Jianglan, "Lord Bai, I didn't expect that the person you rescued on a whim could be so kind."

Here is the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Bai Jianglan's face remained calm. "Your Highness is too kind. It was Your Highness who gave permission that day, so I dared to jump in and save the person. Brother Qin is grateful for Your Highness's great kindness, which is why he made this selfless gesture."

Then Dongyang County Princess shifted her gaze to Qin Sang, turning to the old woman and saying, "Li Granny, find a quiet place and have this valiant warrior Qin elaborate on the whole story. I've only read about stories of 'a drop of water repaid with a spring' in books; I've never witnessed one myself."

Mrs. Li looked around and pointed to an open space in the woods, saying, "Miss, come with me."

Qin Sang was watched by Bai Jianglan and Li Popo, walking into the forest with them. He kept his attention on Dongyang County Princess. Seeing that she knew someone was assassinating her, she remained calm as ever, with not a shred of anxiety or fear on her face. This kind of mindset was extraordinary.

They were not in a hurry, Qin Sang even less so. Walking into the dense forest, Qin Sang then carefully explained the reason.

On his way here, he had already made up his mind and planned to erase the existence of the Netherworld Scriptures and the King Yama's Banner.

As for him, a mere year of martial arts training, how could he possibly kill the assassins of Jiangshan Tower
