The immortal body is called Teevat
Chapter 89 Confrontation
In the following days, Wu Cheng followed the caravan around. From the alchemy map that Wu Cheng brought with him, it seemed that they were heading to Fontaine, but they took too many detours. And sometimes they even went around in circles.
When Wu Cheng asked the head of the Chamber of Commerce, the head of the caravan just explained to him vaguely: "Because there will be treasure-stealing groups blocking the road and robbing people on other shortcuts, for the safety of everyone in the caravan, we can only take a long detour.
Although Wu Cheng was convinced by the caravan leader's statement, the doubts that he had finally dispelled reappeared in his heart. After all, this was Liyue territory, judging by the Thousand Rock Army's law enforcement strength.
It's possible that the treasure-stealing group would steal from the ruins to find cultural relics to sell or to dig for minerals. But they probably wouldn't go so far as to rob a large caravan of more than a dozen vehicles.
Although it is tempting to own a caravan of more than a dozen fully loaded trucks, you have to be alive first. The treasure-stealing group is here to seek wealth, not to die.
But Wu Cheng still didn't want to believe that there was something wrong with this caravan. After all, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like a normal caravan. They were just perhaps being too cautious.
One day, they came to a dense forest and walked along a trail. Suddenly, a group of treasure hunters appeared and the leader shouted, "Don't move. Brothers, we are just asking for money. We want you to load a whole truck with goods."
"We are not asking for your lives, but if you don't hand over the whole truckload of goods, we cannot guarantee your lives."
The caravan that Wu Cheng was in was robbed by a group of treasure robbers. Wu Cheng's first reaction was: How dare these treasure robbers rob in Liyue? Do they want to die? Are there really people who would risk their lives for money?
However, it seems that the leader of the treasure-stealing group is a smart man. He knows that his body is not enough to take in all the goods of the entire caravan, so he chooses to rob a truck.
The leader of this treasure-stealing group, Wu Cheng, believed that with his wisdom, he could thrive in any country except Liyue. However, he should never have chosen Liyue, which had the most powerful military force.
Not to mention the many immortals in Liyue and the most powerful Rock God among the Seven Gods, the Thousand Rocks Army is an organization with a very rich heritage and has fought against demons before. How could these small treasure-stealing groups be their opponents?
But the caravan's loss of the goods in this truck only meant a little less profit. At least they could still make a profit and didn't have to fight the treasure-stealing group to the end just for losing this truck of goods. They could still accept this price after bearing the pain.
But if the treasure-stealing group wants to take over all these goods, not to mention that the Qianyan Army will investigate the matter and launch a siege against them later, the members of these caravans will definitely not agree with the treasure-stealing group's idea of taking over all the goods.
Wu Cheng looked at the ferocious leader in front of him and couldn't help but sigh, "So there are smart people in the treasure-stealing group! It's just a pity that they chose the wrong place to commit the crime. There are smart ones, but not many."
What Wu Cheng guessed wrong was that these treasure-stealing groups were actually Ye Lan who used his authority in the General Affairs Department to summon the nearby Qianyan Army to disguise themselves as treasure-stealing groups to rob the caravans. The purpose was naturally self-evident.
Ye Lan wanted to create a conflict with Wu Cheng so as to test Wu Cheng. However, he found that Wu Cheng was sizing him up, so he tried to provoke Wu Cheng with words. He said to Wu Cheng in a rough male voice: "Hey, you little brat, what are you looking at? Do you want to die?"
Wu Cheng also didn't want to pay attention to the insults from the treasure-stealing group leader in front of him. After all, it would be better for him not to cause trouble in Liyue again. Otherwise, he would definitely be noticed by the authorities, and then he would be in trouble.
Therefore, Wu Cheng was indifferent to Ye Lan's provocation. After all, he just wanted to reach Fontaine and didn't want a bunch of trouble to slow down his pace.
As for the sense of justice in saving the caravan, what does it have to do with him? He paid 25 Mora to ride on this caravan, so what does the loss of the caravan have to do with him?
His relationship with the caravan was not that close, it was just a normal trading relationship. So Wu Cheng chose to ignore Ye Lan's abuse and immediately turned his head away from Ye Lan.
Ye Lan originally thought that her insults would provoke Wu Cheng's anger to fight against her, but now it seems that her plan of provocation has failed.
Ye Lan didn't expect Wu Cheng to have such a tolerant character at such a young age, but she was not a treasure-stealing group who came to rob, but came specifically to find trouble with Wu Cheng.
Ye Lan simply stopped pretending, took out a Liyue-style flying sword, quickly approached Wu Cheng, and slashed him. However, Ye Lan did not use his full strength in this slash, after all, he just wanted to test Wu Cheng's strength.
If Wu Cheng could take it, or even counterattack his own attack, then the murderer of the murder case would basically be identified. The next step was to arrest the criminal named Wu Cheng.
If not, Ye Lan would replace the sharp blade with the blade the moment it approached Wu Cheng's neck, then slap him on the back of the neck to knock him unconscious, and then pretend nothing happened. As for the rest of the stall, leave it to the caravan leader to deal with it.
Although Wu Cheng did not have eyes on his back, he saw Ye Lan swinging at him at a rapid speed with a one-handed sword. However, he had been constantly tempering his body in the belly of the evil dragon Usa, and not only had his physique and strength been greatly improved, but his other six senses had also been enhanced.
Wu Cheng did not see Ye Lan approaching from behind, but his body instinctively told him that there was danger behind him and he needed to get out of the way immediately. Wu Cheng immediately followed his body's instinct and jumped off the carriage to avoid Ye Lan's one-handed sword attack.
Then he turned around and saw that the leader of the treasure-stealing group, dressed as Ye Lan, had embedded the Flying Sword into the carriage's board. When Wu Cheng saw this scene, the nameless anger that had just been suppressed rose up again.
He just didn't want to cause trouble and delay his trip. It wasn't that he was afraid of these treasure-stealing guys. Since the guys were determined to die, there was no need for him to endure it any longer. It would only add to some useless battles.
So the expression of the child who had just had a very sunny and innocent look in his eyes immediately changed to a bloodthirsty and cold expression mixed with a morbid smile and madness when he looked at the treasure thief leader dressed as Ye Lan.
After seeing the change in Wu Cheng's temperament, Ye Lan became more convinced that Wu Cheng was the murderer of the Liyue dismemberment case. After all, Ye Lan had only seen such eyes in desperados who killed people without blinking an eye.
Moreover, the looks of those desperate criminals were not as scary as the way Wu Chengcheng looked at Ye Lan at this moment. Ye Lan could feel that it was a primitive murderous look.
Wu Cheng had no intention of wasting time talking to Ye Lan. He thought that there was no need to put all his strength into the fight against the small fry in the treasure-stealing group in front of him.
Therefore, Wu Cheng did not expose all his cards in front of others. These guys who were not even qualified to be his enemies were not even worthy of using his newly acquired special weapons.
So Wu Cheng immediately used his rock element to transform into a sickle suitable for his current height, held it tightly in both hands, and pointed the blade forward to prepare for a battle with Ye Lan.
When Ye Lan saw that the Flying Sword in his hand was stuck on the carriage's board, he immediately used the elemental power of water to transform it into a one-handed long sword and prepared to fight Wu Cheng.
Although Ye Lan is good at using bows and arrows to fight, it does not mean that as a spy of Liyue General Affairs Department, he cannot use other weapons. Although his proficiency in other weapons is not as good as that of bows and arrows, he is also considered to be a leader among ordinary people.
There was no boring and tedious conversation between the two, but they started fighting directly. Wu Cheng immediately flew close to Ye Lan and swung his sickle in an attempt to cut Ye Lan in half and kill her.
Ye Lan was also shocked by Wu Cheng's swift and ruthless attack, but after years of walking between life and death, Ye Lan was no pushover. She used the power of her one-handed sword to deflect Wu Cheng's sickle attack on her waist.
Wu Cheng then continued to use the sickle's slashing death spin to try to kill Ye Lan, but it seemed to be ineffective, and the leader of the treasure-stealing group in front of him could even fight back and forth with him.
Wu Cheng never expected that the guy he thought was just a small fry in the treasure-stealing group could actually withstand his attack and even fight to a balance. It seems that the enemy in front of him is probably not just the leader of the treasure-stealing group.
When Ye Lan was fighting with Wu Cheng, he realized that Wu Cheng's martial arts level was not something that could be defeated in a short time. Wu Cheng's fighting style of exchanging life for life and injury for injury also made Ye Lan more cautious.
And Ye Lan was also afraid that Wu Cheng would suddenly go crazy and crazily kill other people around him. After all, as the murderer of the Liyue dismemberment case, he himself was very dangerous, and other people should not be allowed to participate in their fight.
So Ye Lan consciously took Wu Cheng away from the entire caravan, so that their battlefield would be away from these irrelevant people. At this time, Wu Cheng's murderous mood once again took over and he did not realize that Ye Lan's real intention was to lead him away from the caravan.
And when Wu Cheng once again engaged in a battle of strength with Ye Lan, the two sides were deadlocked and retreated dozens of steps together, staring at each other.
Wu Cheng began to realize that he had been transferred very far away by Ye Lan, with only dense forests left around him. Wu Cheng speculated that the reason why the leader of the treasure-stealing group wanted to do this was simply because he was afraid that the fight between them would hurt his men, so he transferred him away so that the two of them could fight without any worries.
But if that's the case, then I have nothing to worry about. After all, as long as I kill the person in front of me, who can know how many cards I have in my hand? In my heart, Wu Cheng couldn't help but laugh at the enemy in front of him. Isn't this just finding a grave for himself?
After all, Wu Cheng also realized that the identity and background of the leader of the treasure-stealing group in front of him must be extraordinary, and he is very likely to belong to the official forces of Liyue.
As for the possibility that the treasure-stealing group really had such a strong person, Wu Cheng directly denied it. Wu Cheng really didn't dare to compliment their strength.
Then Wu Cheng would have to re-evaluate the guy he was fighting with. After all, if it was the leader of the treasure-stealing group, he would just kill him, and no one would come to trouble him.
But if the person in front of him is an official figure of Liyue, then if Wu Cheng wants to kill him, it will inevitably attract the attention of Liyue's official forces.
Wu Cheng spoke first: "Humph, what a tough opponent. Very interesting."
After saying this, Wu Cheng dissipated the rock element sickle in his hand, and then took out the treasure left by Willy from his own Rock Element God's Eye space.
Wu Cheng just wanted to hold the blood sickle tightly in his hand, and he could feel the cool touch on the palm of his hand, as if the weapon was also conveying to him his urgent desire to fight.
Wu Cheng couldn't help but say harshly to Ye Lan beside him: "Whether you are from the official forces of Liyue or sent by other forces, I have no intention of conflicting with you. It's best not to force me to take action."
After hearing Wu Cheng's words, Ye Lan's eyes were filled with shock. Could it be that her identity as the General Affairs Department of Liyue had been seen through? Ye Lan didn't care about Wu Cheng's warning, the murderer, and just continued to fight back.
Ye Lan simply used her own voice again and said to Wu Cheng: "You really are the real murderer of the Liyue dismemberment murder case. I admire your sharp insight. No wonder it is so difficult to find your whereabouts. Since you are unwilling to fight like this, why don't you surrender?"
Ye Lan was in a very proud mood at this moment. All his inferences were completely correct. He really enjoyed drawing out all the connections of the matter and then reviewing the whole facts by himself.
Wu Cheng felt the voice sounded familiar for some reason, but he couldn't remember who the voice belonged to. However, this did confirm his suspicion that he had been targeted by Liyue's official forces.
Wu Cheng said with disdain: "Liyue's official forces investigated very quickly, but the people I killed were all evil, not good people. Why bother with me? I've already said that I have no intention of conflicting with you."
Ye Lan righteously rebuked Wu Cheng: "Shut up, the justice you speak of is nothing but the crime of lynching. Even if they are extremely vicious villains, they should be judged by the justice of Liyue law, instead of you ending their lives."
"To put it bluntly, you are nothing more than a psychopathic demon who likes to kill people. What you said about slaughtering evil people is just an excuse for your perverted hobby. There is no need to hide it."
Wu Cheng did not listen to a single word of Ye Lan's meaningless words and said impatiently: "What I think is justice is justice. I don't need you to judge my justice. I have my own set of rules for judging, so please don't bother with it, young lady."
"Since you've said that, it seems like there's nothing left for us to talk about. Let's just have a fight first."
Then Wu Cheng didn't say anything else. He instantly opened his Sharingan and rushed towards Ye Lan with a sickle, ready to continue fighting with Ye Lan.
From Ye Lan's perspective, Wu Cheng was flying towards her quickly, and at this moment she suddenly sensed the danger and immediately dodged to the left. Wu Cheng swung a sickle to try to harvest Ye Lan. If Ye Lan had not dodged, she would probably have been cut in half.
But this time, the blade of the sickle cut through Ye Lan's mask. Seeing that there was no need to keep the mask since it was cut, Ye Lan immediately took off the hood to reveal his true appearance.
After all, Ye Lan believed that Wu Cheng had seen through her identity, and the mask had lost its original effect and there was no need to keep it.
Wu Cheng saw the Liyue spy in front of him who came to spy on him. The girl had blue bangs and slightly green pupils, and was as beautiful as an emerald. She had a good figure and face, and she exuded the temperament of a queen.
