The Swallow Mountain Merchant Group was a local merchant group.

The so-called local business groups referred to the business groups that had been established on this planet. Haoyuan Star was a savage and migratory planet, so the Swallow Mountain business group wasn't a branch of any large business group.

However, local business groups had the advantages of local business groups. As the saying went, a small ship could be turned around easily, and a business group like the Swallow Mountain business group often operated very flexibly and rooted in the local area. Regardless of the size of the business, they were all willing to do it, fully filling the management gap of the large business groups.

As he said that, he turned around and glanced at Nie Feng, who was following behind the caravan. His eyes were filled with vigilance.

Zhao Hong laughed, shook his head and said, "Even the Black Fire Bandit can't send such a spy."

Black Flame Bandits were a famous group of mounted gangsters on Haoyuan Star. They often robbed homes to attack the merchant brigades. Although the Imperial Army stationed on Haoyuan Star had surrounded and annihilated them several times, they were still unable to completely destroy them.

The mounted gangsters didn't have the strength to forcefully attack a heavily defended city. They only attacked the passing merchants and farmers on the outskirts of the city. They were extremely cunning in their crimes.

In the past, there had been cases where the mounted gangsters had sent spies into the caravan, and then joined forces on the way.

Therefore, the young guard's suspicions were not without reason.

Furthermore, he felt a little displeased with Nie Feng.

However, Zhao Hong did not think so, because this place was not the territory of the mounted gangsters, and no spy would use such an eye-catching method to join the caravan.

Most importantly, he couldn't see through Nie Feng's cultivation.

Secondly, Nie Feng's cultivation was too high, making it hard for Zhao Hong to see through him. However, experts at that level were definitely not that young, and there were also other special features that allowed him to see through them.

Therefore, the only explanation for this was that Nie Feng practiced a cultivation technique that could mask the fluctuations of his Star Energy!

A cultivation technique that could mask the fluctuations of Star Energy was not a common thing. Furthermore, Nie Feng had concealed it well. Zhao Hong could clearly sense that he was not ordinary, but he couldn't tell that there was anything wrong with it.

High level cultivation techniques were usually only controlled by large sects, wealthy clans, or empires. Ordinary rogue cultivators simply could not obtain them.

Since Nie Feng was fully armed and was riding the Blue Horn Horse, Zhao Hong naturally treated him as a disciple from a sect or clan that was out on a experiential learning. That was why he politely invited him.

Firstly, it could increase the strength of the caravan, and secondly, it was a good opportunity to form a good relationship with the caravan. It was a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

However, Zhao Hong couldn't tell the young guard next to him about the secret in detail. However, with him acting as the guarantor, the manager of the caravan would not object.

It was like a drop of water falling into a deep pond. Nie Feng's joining did not cause much of a stir in this caravan. The wheels rolled forward. Although their speed wasn't as fast as Lu Chence's on his Mercedes-Benz, it wasn't too slow either.

Travelling far away in the Boorish Desolate, a slower speed meant a more dangerous situation. A slow caravan would not survive in the Boorish Desolate unless the size and strength of the caravan were extremely great.

The strongest, Zhao Hong, was only a High Silver grade, but he did not have that kind of capricious qualifications. Their carts were not very heavy, and their travelling carriages were all light type, their ability to gather strength was mainly due to the horses that were good at galloping.

When night fell, the caravan set up camp beside a lake.

The camp was well-chosen. It was far away from the mountains where berserk beasts ran rampant, and had a wide field of vision. There was no need to worry about being ambushed. The people in the caravan surrounded the carriage, creating a simple barrier.

This defense alone was far from enough. A gray-robed man stepped out of a carriage and placed bronze colored metal plates around the temporary campsite.

The opponent's action was obviously setting up the magical formation!

Zhao Hong smiled and said, "Our small caravan can't afford to hire a astrologer..."

It turned out that this grey robed man was a Star Division Apprentice that belonged to the merchant group. He held a completed array disc in his hand and was responsible for setting up the temporary defensive star array.

Savage star was too dangerous. The caravan traveled in the wilderness for a long time, and if they didn't have the protection of the star array at night, they would be easily ambushed and destroyed.

A local caravan like the Swallow Mountain Merchant Group could not afford to hire a few Star Magisters, so they would usually hire a lot cheaper Star Pagoda acolytes to bring the specially purchased formation plates to each caravan.

Even though it was only a temporary star formation, it was enough to protect the caravan from most threats. As long as they didn't run into a high rank savage beast or a strong group of mounted bandits, they would be completely safe under normal circumstances.

Of course, whether it was hiring disciples from the Star Pagoda, buying array discs, or maintaining them, they all cost a lot.

Zhao Hong's detailed explanation opened Nie Feng's eyes a little bit. He couldn't help but feel that reading ten thousand books wasn't as good as walking ten thousand miles down the road — — How could he have seen such a thing in Nanyuan city?

However, Zhao Hong was secretly muttering in his heart. According to common sense, disciples from sects and clans should be aware of this. Perhaps, it's because Nie Feng is too young.
