Chapter 485: Chapter 182: Intercepted Halfway, Hunted! (9068 words)

Early morning.

The sun had not yet risen.

A thin fog hung in the air.

A large truck was driving through a mountain road.

On the truck, Chen Fan turned his head and looked at Ye Hao and Shen Daodao silently: “Why are you two here?”

Chu Tiannan had only given Chen Fan ten days.

In these ten days, Chen Fan had been busier than ever, finally managing to cultivate the Guardian Beasts of the three Great Pioneer Groups and the students participating in the escort league.

Unexpectedly, when Bai Tianyu and Chu Tiannan were preparing to quietly take him and Chu Xuan out of East Sea City, Ye Hao and Shen Daodao appeared.

Left with no choice, Chu Tiannan simply brought Ye Hao and Shen Daodao along.

Seeing Chen Fan’s unhappy expression, Shen Daodao hesitated to speak: “Haozi said he noticed that you and Chu Xuan have been acting strange lately. When he called you both to the Secret Realm, you didn’t respond.”

“He wanted to challenge Chu Xuan, but there was no response either.”

“And you, Brother Fan, were so busy…”

“Haozi said it must have something to do with that day when Grandpa Chu sought you out.”

“So, we’ve been secretly following you.”

Ye Hao awkwardly smiled: “Brother Fan, what happened? Even if we’re going to Demon City, we don’t need to be so secretive, right?”

“What do you know?” Chen Fan said angrily, “Nightmare Hall has targeted the Chu Family and me.”

“As soon as Chu Xuan and I leave East Sea City, we could be ambushed at any moment.”

“It’s always best to be cautious – better safe than sorry.”

Ye Hao and Shen Daodao looked at each other and didn’t ask any further.

Chen Fan’s gaze then shifted to the opposite side.

Sitting opposite the group were two women.

Vice Team Leader of the War God Pioneer Group, Zhen Qing;

Vice Team Leader of the Tian Sheng Pioneer Group, Xiao Zi;

Chen Fan opened his mouth for a while before finally saying: “Grandpa Chu and my Senior Brother said everything was arranged… Arranging for you two to protect us, is that considered ‘well arranged’?”

Zhen Qing and Xiao Zi were both at the First Layer Heaven of the Fifth-grade Realm.

Chen Fan had originally thought that East Sea City would at least arrange a Sixth-Rank Realm to escort them all the way.

But there were only three people…

In addition to Zhen Qing and Xiao Zi, there was also Uncle Qian in the driver’s cab in front.

However, Uncle Qian was much stronger than these two. Although he was a Star Martial Artist, he was now at the Fifth-Grade Fifth Layer Heaven, just a step away from the Sixth-Rank Realm.

Zhen Qing and Xiao Zi turned their faces away at the same time, pouting and rolling their eyes.

If anyone else had shown such disregard for them, Zhen Qing might have been okay, but with Xiao Zi’s hot temper, she probably would have started a fight by now.

But the person speaking was Chen Fan…

Over this period, Xiao Zi had also had several encounters with Chen Fan.

The Guardian Beasts of the Tian Sheng Pioneer Group, under Chen Fan’s cultivation, had also seen a significant increase in strength.

So Xiao Zi couldn’t get angry at all.

Seeing Chen Fan’s dissatisfied expression, Xiao Zi couldn’t help but say: “There are spies from Nightmare Hall in East Sea City, and the Black Armor Army has been investigating secretly during this period.”

“But it is impossible to find out all the scum in a short time.”

“There are only a handful of strongmen above the Sixth-Rank Realm in East Sea City, and Nightmare Hall has been closely watching their movements… This is the information we got after interrogating Hong Quan.”

“So, if we send strongmen above the Sixth-Rank Realm to escort you, Nightmare Hall would know immediately.”

“On this trip, the two Pioneer Groups are joining forces to escort a batch of resources to Demon City.”

“Every three months, our several Pioneer Groups take this route.”

“It shouldn’t draw much attention.”

“On the other hand, both Zhen Qing and I have Flying Guardian Beasts. In case of any trouble, we can arrange for the Flying Guardian Beasts to carry you away at the first opportunity.”

Chen Fan nodded slightly, went to the front where the cargo was piled up, spread a blanket, and lay down directly.

He had been helping the Guardian Beasts of the three Great Pioneer Groups during this time and had hardly had any rest.

Now that he was on the way to Demon City, he could finally catch a break.

Unfortunately, ten days were still a bit too short.

After all, there wasn’t enough time to gather all the necessary materials.

Some special materials for the Guardian Beasts had to be waited for several days.

After ten days of frantic beast cultivation, there were still many Guardian Beasts in the Ninth Store that had not been cultivated.

However, fortunately, the East Sea City Beast Trainer Association took over, so there wouldn’t be any major issues.

Chen Fan had already decided that after some time, he would move the Ninth Store to Demon City.

He would ask Old Zhao to bring Zhuo Sheng, Zhang Wei, and Old Blind Man together to Demon City and open a Ninth Store there.

It was only a pity for those Guardian Beasts in East Sea City…

Leaving so many untrained Guardian Beasts behind was like leaving a huge gold mountain untouched for Chen Fan.

He didn’t want to think about it.

But thinking about it made him want to cough up blood.

At this moment, Ye Hao’s smart wristwatch beeped.

Ye Hao opened WeChat and saw a message from his father…

“May you wander for half your life and still be young when you return.”

Ye Hao fell silent.

He had followed Chen Fan onto the truck while trailing him and Shen Daodao.

Not only had they not prepared anything, they hadn’t even had the chance to inform their families.

But it seemed that the City Lord might have already told his parents now.

After all, Blue Star was not like Earth…

Ye Hao had never been far away from home in his life.

Thinking back about the moments in East Sea City, Ye Hao’s eyes reddened slightly.

Shen Daodao leaned over to take a look and said, “To translate it, the meaning of this sentence is: I hope you can mess around for decades and still be the same loser when you return.”
