Chapter 1426: Chapter 375: The Man-Eating City (Part 6)

She turned her gaze to her leader, hoping he would say something to clarify whether the man before them was truly a refugee or just pretending to be one. This was especially crucial because, if he was a bad person, what should they do?

But the leading cultivator didn’t care about this at all. He sipped his tea, contemplating how to capture the most atrocious cultivator behind the soldier. This cultivator had a terrifying power level, being at Foundation Establishment Stage three.

The Foundation Establishment Stage three is a formidable cultivation level, sufficient to lead a sect. However, the strongest among them only reached the ninth level of the Qi Cultivation Realm. They relied on a crossbow from the Celestial Craft Workshop to help them eliminate the terrifying existence before them at Foundation Establishment Stage three.

The woman felt helpless. With the men unreliable, she had no choice but to rely on herself.

She proactively said to Yuchi, "Friend, what are you thinking now? Don’t worry about how to leave; we will surely help you. By the way, we don’t even know your name yet."

Yuchi hadn’t spoken yet when the man beside him frowned instantly, looking discontentedly at the woman beside him, glaring fiercely with his eyes.

His meaning was clear: don’t say such pointless things now, and certainly don’t talk to people with unclear intentions.

What’s there to discuss with a miserable refugee? We’re here to help them, not to ask for their help. They can’t provide us any significant assistance, so we shouldn’t trouble others.

Yuchi had no intention of speaking, nodding shyly at the woman with a smile.

Then he stood up and said, "I won’t bother you anymore. I have other matters to handle now. Please continue enjoying your tea, and thank you for your concern."

After finishing his words, he turned around and left.

The man’s smile gradually faded, and after Yuchi left, he said to the woman, "What are you thinking? Why are you talking to a stranger now? If he were indeed a cultivator, we could recruit him. But clearly, he doesn’t look like one. Why bother talking to others now? Isn’t it just imposing on them?"

The woman felt speechless, wanting to give the man before her a good thrashing, just as she was about to inquire about Yuchi’s background!

But she was interrupted directly by her leader, whom she sarcastically considered as a "divine assist."

A man nearby joked, "Maybe it’s because she hasn’t seen such a handsome young man for a long time and surely has some affection. You know, our camp is full of rough men, so it’s natural she can’t be attracted to them. Hahaha."

After he finished speaking, the rest of his companions couldn’t help but nod:

"Yes, maybe it’s indeed the case. I noticed her gaze at the man just now seemed off. The guy is quite good-looking, so liking him is normal, like us men seeing a beautiful woman and having our hearts stirred involuntarily."

"Why don’t we go help you get him back, brew some warm wine for you two, and let you have a chat here?"

The woman instantly blushed:

"What on earth are you talking about? I don’t know what you’re trying to express. We’re doing serious business right now, so stop joking. It’s not funny, especially considering he’s likely married."

"If he weren’t a married man, how could he be so indifferent when seeing me? He surely has a wife already, so even if I look decent, he has no intention of taking a second glance."

"So stop joking now and seriously consider what to do next."

After she spoke, the others stopped talking.

Yes, they couldn’t rely on this stranger, as he was just a passerby.

There were many matters awaiting resolution in the camp, pressing to address current issues; otherwise, troubles would continue to accumulate.

The woman looked towards the direction of Yuchi’s departure: "If only he were a cultivator, even just in the Qi Cultivation Realm!"
