C5 The Thief Is Here

"The Longevity Sect is the place where the godly person your grandfather met a long time ago was located. That godly person is from the Longevity Sect!"

Zhan Taiyue'er patiently explained to Niu Thirteen.

"Oh, oh, I understand!"

Niu Thirteen gently nodded his head.

"Oh right, why are you here?"

This place was desolate and uninhabited; it was filled with primitive forests full of especially terrifying vicious beasts. Even an ordinary hunter would have a hard time surviving in such a place. Yet, Niu Thirteen was here by himself.

Niu Thirteen laughed bitterly. "Because I live here. It's just that today, I coincidentally met you and those Thieves. Honestly speaking, those Thieves also have enmity with me!"

"What grudge?"

Zhantai Yue'er curiously asked.

When Niu Shisan thought of this, his tone became even heavier. "I, Uncle Qiang, left Niu Village six months ago and I haven't been back since.

We all thought that he was killed by the berserk beasts outside. We searched for him for half a year but still couldn't find him.

However, when I came out to hunt today, I overheard the conversation of those thieves.

Furthermore, the Rogue was even torturing him to force him to tell them the location of Ox-Village.

"Uncle Qiang persisted for half a year before he finally couldn't hold it in and told them the general location of Ox-Village. These Thieves are actually here for Ox-Village!"

"In other words, Ox Village is in danger. I heard that those who get targeted by the Thieves have no good end. The males kill them all, the females take them away, and the Thieves burn them down and rob them of all evils!"

His father was a great general that guarded the borders of the Great Bear Empire. There were many thieves at the borders, so he often fought with thieves. She had heard of their notoriety since she was young.

"En, so I have to go back to Ox-Village before the thieves arrive and tell the villagers about this matter. If I go too late, I don't know what will happen!"

He was on his way back to the village to begin with, but he met her.

Zhan Taiyue looked at him with embarrassment, saying, "I'm sorry, but if it weren't for saving me, you would have probably returned to Niu Village by now.

If you stay here for one more second, your village will be in even more danger. How about you ignore me and go back to the village in the middle of the night to tell them about the thieves! "

Niu Thirteen shook his head and said, "How can I do that? Since I saved you, I must wait for you to have the ability to protect yourself."

"Or maybe you can recover your strength and then leave. At dawn tomorrow, I will take you back to Niu Village first!"

Zhan Taiyue'er was extremely touched. She had met Niu Thirteen so casually, but they were just strangers that didn't know each other. Yet he treated her so well. She sincerely thanked him. "Thank you!"

Just as Niu Thirteen was about to say something, the terrifying sound of thunder came from outside the cave and a torrential downpour suddenly fell from the sky.

"Why is it raining so heavily? I can't even rush back to Ox-Village in the middle of the night!"

At first, he wanted to wait for his clothes to dry before returning to Niu Village that night. Now that it was raining, and with her heavy injuries, he couldn't return to the village in the rain.

Jantai Yue'er's eyes lit up. She said to Niu Thirteen, "It just so happens that the thieves have to find a place to shelter themselves from the rain. They won't be able to find Niu Village overnight!"

"That's right! Haha! The heavy rain has slowed down the Thief's search for Ox-Village. I don't need to worry about them finding Ox-Village for now!"

Niu Thirteen slapped his thigh in excitement. It was a good thing that the rain could slow down the Thief's search for Ox Village.

"Rumble …"

Outside the cave, lightning flashed and thunder roared. A torrential downpour flowed from the cave.

However, outside the cave that Niu Thirteen and the others were in, there was a small group of ten men in black clothes, carrying sabers. They were currently rushing towards the cave in the middle of the mountain.

"There's a cave over there. Let's go in and avoid the rain. The weather can't stop raining!"

A Thief cursed.

It was also at this time that Niu Thirteen's clothes were dried. In order for Jantai Yue'er to be able to take off her clothes and dry herself, he put on his clothes and walked out of the cave.

After Niu Thirteen left, Jantai Yue'er quickly took off her dress and dried it on the flame.

Niu Thirteen arrived at the entrance of the cave. He looked out at the world of thunder and lightning, which was raining cats and dogs.

"Boom …"

There was a clap of thunder in the sky, and the surrounding of the cave was illuminated by the lightning, lighting up the surroundings slightly.

With the aid of the lightning, Niu Thirteen could see the figures of the thieves charging towards the cave from the other side of the mountain.
