<h4>Chapter 1125 A deal with the bounty hunters</h4>
With Ren Xiaosu’s current strength and vignce, it was impossible for normal people to steal anything from him without his knowledge.
So the moment someone bumped into him on the street, he took advantage of the situation and allowed the other party to steal his tracker.
The thief had taken possession of a small tracker from Ren Xiaosu, but he did not know what it was, so he could only take it back and hand it to whoever was pulling the strings.
This helped Ren Xiaosu sessfully locate where Chen Cheng and the young sorceress, An’an, were hiding.
Chen Cheng and An’an were caught off guard by this. Their original n was to steal Ren Xiaosu’s wallet or belongings to learn more about his background.
But instead of finding out anything about him, Ren Xiaosu found their secret residence.
Vaduz was an important city, and the cksmith’s workshop these bounty hunters had set up in Vaduz was actually one of their more important “safe houses.”
If any of theirpatriots encountered danger, they could hide in the basement of the cksmith’s forge until the danger had passed.
There was enough food stored in the cer, as well as a fresh change of identity prepared for them.
This safe house was what gave them the confidence to escape being tracked by the magus order over the years.
But now the safe house had been located by Ren Xiaosu. The cksmith in charge of concealing the safe house had also been knocked out by Ren Xiaosu in a single strike. The burly man, who stood nearly two meters tall, could not even stand up.
Chen Cheng and An’an felt a sense of defeat. Ren Xiaosu said with a smile, “You don’t have to look so surprised. After all, you’ve already learned from the sheeple that I’m not from the Kingdom of Sorcerers, right? I’m afraid that the Central ins’ pace of development is probably much faster than y’all expected.”
An’an was first to regain herposure. “Why are you looking for us?”
“Wait a sec, let me correct you there.” Ren Xiaosu found a chair and sat down. “Y’all deliberately left the trade caravan knowing I was aware and deliberately led me away. I should be the one asking this question. Why’re you looking for me?”
Chen Cheng went over and helped the cksmith up. Then he said to Ren Xiaosu, “Who exactly are you? What’s your rtionship with Ren He, the rider you mentioned?”
Ren Xiaosu gave it some thought. “I only ryed the information to y’all because I wanted to know what my rtionship with him is. So have y’all ryed my information to your otherpanions yet? Can you tell me about your organization and what y’all know?”
Chen Cheng and An’an looked at each other. Then the young sorceress said, “We don’t know who the person you’re talking about is, but we’ve heard of the name.”
“That’s good news.” Ren Xiaosu said with a smile, “Tell me in more detail.”
“But we don’t know the details yet. We only heard our father and his generation’s people mention it. If you want to know more, you’ll have toe with us to Ghent City,” An’an said.
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment before smiling happily. “Are you trying to lure me to Ghent City to make use of me?”
An’an’s hands that were at rest by her sides suddenly balled up into fists. She always felt the young man in front of her could guess what she was thinking when she spoke with him.
This feeling was really ufortable. She was constantly put in a passive position.
“To be specific, we’re not trying to make use of you, but we need that person who’s protecting you. He’s really strong. We’re willing to use him as the foundation for our deal with you. Go to Ghent City and help us with a task, and we’ll tell you what you want to know,” An’an said calmly.
Ren Xiaosu thought back for a couple seconds beforeughing. “Are you referring to the person who killed the fleeing bandits?”
So they were thinking about making use of Old Xu’sbat strength. However, what they did not know was that Old Xu was actually just one of his powers.
Ren Xiaosu did not want to exin either. He believed Old Xu, the pinnacle of close quartersbat, would greatly surprise all the physically weak sorcerers.
“Yes.” An’an’s voice turned cold. “It doesn’t matter if you’re unwilling to go to Ghent City, but I’m afraid you’ll have to find out for yourself what you wish to know.”
Ren Xiaosu looked at An’an with great interest. “I believe that y’all don’t have any reinforcements here in Vaduz. Since I can locate your hideout and am brave enough toe here alone, where do you get the confidence to talk like this to me?”
An’an sneered, “We have two sorcerers over here. If you think you’re so strong, why don’t you try us?”
As soon as her words trailed off, Ren Xiaosu rushed Chen Cheng and An’an. He grabbed their necks with his steely hands and forcefully lifted them before mming them against the walls of the cksmith’s workshop.
In that instant, the Eyes of True Sight Chen Cheng and An’an were furtively holding in their hands dropped to the ground.
Russell had written in the Introduction to Sorcery that when he faced the Central ins rider, he did not even get a chance to recite any incantations.
If even a talented and experienced archmage like Russell was not able to fight back, there was even less of a chance that young sorcerers like Chen Cheng and An’an could.
Chen Cheng and An’an struggled with all their might, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not break free from Ren Xiaosu’s control.
Just as the cksmith and his apprentice were about to sneak an attack on Ren Xiaosu, Ren Xiaosu suddenly let go and took a step back, leaving Chen Cheng and An’an to fall to the ground.
Ren Xiaosu snatched the cksmith’s broadsword from his hand and snapped the de with both hands. “You can’t even hold your own weapon properly, so don’t talk to me about your tactics. Tell your elders that I’ll go to Ghent City. And if your goal is to pit yourselves against the sorcerers, let’s just say we share amon interest. As for your intention to make use of me, it’d be better if you put that on the back burner.”
Ren Xiaosu turned around and left the cksmith’s workshop, leaving the cksmith, An’an, and the others looking at one another.
Before this, they had nevere across an enemy as strong as this based purely on physical strength. As such, they were utterly defeated by Ren Xiaosu.
It was also at this moment they understood the young man was actually extremely powerful. “Why would such a person be willing to be a fringe sorcerer’s steward? What’s his goal ining to the Kingdom of Sorcerers?” Chen Cheng said in a daze.
An’an looked unconvinced. She looked at the cksmith and said, “Uncle Gris, please ry this news about him to Ghent City and tell Father and the others to be careful.”
“Mhm.” Gris nodded solemnly. As someone who did physical work, he naturally understood how terrifying the power Ren Xiaosu had just disyed was. Everyone in the organization had to treat this variable that was about to arrive at Ghent City seriously
Ren Xiaosu, having left the cksmith’s shop, heaved a sigh of relief. When he was just about to break the metal sword, he really was a little worried he couldn’t do it. Fortunately, the other party’s forging skills were not that good.
And thus, another problem came up. Ren Xiaosu had found the cksmith’s workshop with the GPS tracker, but he did not put a tracker on Melgor. He had lost his way.
