Chapter 179 Encountering Danger on the Return Journey

After the few of them had packed their luggage, it was already evening. Norton and the others temporarily found a place to rest for the night. They planned to hire a few carriages to go home during the day.

When the time came, the few of them would ride fast horses. However, since the Old Ancestor had not specified the time, and they had already found the clansmen, there was no need to be anxious on the way back.

Norton and the others were about to go to the resting place. It was very secluded. On the way to Winterfrost, there were many mountain roads in the middle.

It was said that bandits often appeared near the mountain path. They had not encountered them on their way here. However, these bandits were lucky. To these bandits, they were not a match for Norton and the others at all, and they also did not intend to sacrifice themselves.

Norton and the others had some lunch before they continued their journey. In the afternoon, they finally completed that difficult stretch of road. There was only a small forest left before they could get to an inn to rest.

Norton and Charles sat separately in two horse carriages. Karuman rode in front to clear the way. This really made Karuman feel a little aggrieved. A dignified expert of the Divine Power Realm was actually riding a horse to clear the way. However, there was nothing to complain about. After all, he was just a servant.

Unexpectedly, in the few days since he had come out, Karuman missed the time when he had nothing to do in the Nicholas palace.

As Karuman was thinking about these messy matters, he suddenly discovered something abnormal. “Who is it?” He quickly reined in the horse and pulled it to a stop, and the carriages behind him also stopped.

The two carriage drivers looked at Karuman in confusion. Norton lifted the curtain and looked outside. “Karuman? What has happened?”

Karuman did not look good. “There seems to be an ambush ahead. Everyone, be careful.”

Norton and Charles’ expressions changed when they heard this. They quickly got out of the carriages. Both of them looked around solemnly, but they could not sense anything wrong.

Soon, Herbert and the others had also arrived at this place. They asked in panic, “What’s going on?”

The others were also panicking.

Karuman quickly calmed everyone’s emotions. “Everyone, get into the carriages. All of you, just guard the carriages.” As soon as he finished speaking, Karuman flew directly into the air and looked down at the entire forest. A powerful energy erupted from his body, and a small portion of it formed a protective barrier around the carriages.

The two carriage drivers stared with widened eyes as if they had seen magic. Herbert was also very stunned. “Could this be the legendary Divine Power Realm?”

He had not expected Karuman, who was only a servant of the Nicholas family, to be of the Divine Power Realm.

Suddenly, Karuman looked in a direction and said, “Come out, it’s not too late yet, otherwise, you will all know the consequences. Unless all of you kill me, otherwise you bunch of trash won’t be able to touch anyone else.”

After Karuman had finished speaking, there was still no response from the other party. The entire forest fell into a dead silence. Norton and the others started to become nervous. They carefully observed their surroundings, but they did not find any traces of the enemy. After waiting for a while, it was still dead silence. Karuman sneered and started to erupt with the energy in his body. He raised his hand and waved it in a direction.

With a swoosh, golden light gathered in the air and instantly appeared in the distance.

Wherever the golden light went, all the branches of trees were cut off. In the next second, two panicking and fleeing figures suddenly appeared in the woods about a hundred meters away. However, their speed was no match for the speed of the golden light. Instantly, the two of them fell to the ground.

Karuman did not think much of the other party because to him, killing them was as easy as killing two ants. “Are you still not going to come out? Do you really want me to finish off all these useless people before coming to deal with you?”

These assassins lurking in the surroundings were all very powerful, but in front of Karuman, everything was meaningless. They were only of the Innate Realm. No matter how powerful their concealment techniques were, they could not escape Karuman’s eyes.

“I didn’t expect Karuman, who has always killed without blinking, to be willing to be a dog for others.” Suddenly, a voice sounded from afar and reverberated throughout the entire forest, appearing somewhat sinister and terrifying

And this voice seemed to come from every direction, making it impossible to tell which direction it was coming from.

Even in the face of such unpleasant words, Karuman was not angry. He just sneered again. “Stop hiding. You know your skills. You’re far from being able to sneak attack me.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Karuman activated his magical power again. Countless swords with golden light appeared around his hand, and his energy had already locked onto all the assassins lurking in the surroundings.

This time he did not even bother to warn them, but the enemy had already seen through Karuman. The moment before Karuman attacked, an even more powerful energy suddenly appeared in the woods ahead of him. It made a loud sound in the air, and a bolt of lightning appeared, slashing down at Karuman.

Karuman was still very serious. He thrust most of his swords upward, and only then did they counteract the lightning. A huge burst of energy erupted in the air, and only a small portion of the swords stabbed at the surroundings. In an instant, several people fell to the ground.

“All of you, die!” Suddenly, a figure appeared in the woods on the right side and erupted with huge energy. A huge net formed in the sky and covered Karuman.

Through Karuman’s perception, he discovered that the other party was actually at level-5 of the Divine Power Realm.

Karuman had not expected the other party to be of such a high level, so he began to think that things were not that simple. However, he did not back down at all and continued to resist with all his might.

At the same time, in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family, Romo had also seen this scene through the Visitation Talisman. “I didn’t expect all of you to be so tenacious,” Romo said calmly.

Previously, Ron had been ambushed by the people from the Mu Guang Pavilion. Romo had long thought that this group of people would not let the matter rest, so he specially called Karuman to accompany Norton and the others. Unexpectedly, they still attacked as Romo had expected.

[Ding! Warning! Warning! Found descendants in danger.)

As Romo was thinking of a solution, the System notifications sounded in his ear again.
