512: Killing two birds with one stone, the only winner is me

At this very moment.

Shen Bei led the bandits to besiege the You Family's convoy.

This was not a random act on his part.

If one simply believed Shen Bei only wanted to retaliate and implicate the You Family, then their perspective would be too narrow.

Shen Bei also had no intention of becoming a bandit in the catacombs.

He disdained to associate with them.

What Shen Bei wanted to do was to use the You Family's influence to enter the Imperial City.

At this moment, the You Family's Da Shouzi was severely injured, galloping on his horse with blood continuously overflowing from his mouth, but he dared not stop, because the bandits were chasing closely behind him.

From time to time, some of the You Family's guards were caught and beheaded by the bandits.

This made the You Family members flee even more desperately, and the You Family's seventh-rank Da Shouzi, disregarding his injuries, fled while spitting blood.

"Hahahaha! Where can you escape to? You are all going to die!"

The bandit leader was incredibly arrogant, holding a long saber, his Face extremely ferocious. He felt utterly exhilarated; killing people from an aristocratic family was much more satisfying than killing those commoners.

Moreover, this was the most glorious moment in his career as a bandit!

Having a Da Shouzi overseeing things, the feeling of boundless arrogance was truly wonderful!

He rode at the forefront, his long saber cutting off a guard's head, finally catching up to the You Family's formation. He grew even more excited, swinging his long saber with increasing fervor.

If he killed all these people, the adult would surely appreciate him greatly.

The You Family members' Faces were pale, they were in despair.

But at this very moment, a furious shout came: "Bandits, stop! In broad daylight, how dare you commit violence!"

The angry shout made everyone look towards the source of the sound, only to see a young man suddenly appear, walking gracefully towards them.

This young man was Shen Bei; he was not wearing a mask at this time, exposing his entire Face, standing righteously in the Void Realm.

The bandit leader naturally recognized Shen Bei at a glance. He was slightly stunned, muttering in his heart: What did the adult just say?

But... he had no time to think further.

Because in the next instant, a flash of saber light descended.

The saber light was like lightning, swift and sharp, whistling like an electric current.

Shen Bei wielded his saber technique to its extreme. What kind of power would a ninth-rank Martial Artist unleash to their maximum? How could these bandits possibly resist it?

The saber light weaved through, slitting the throats of one bandit after another.

These bandits' eyes widened, watching this scene in disbelief.

"Ad..."

The bandit leader, in terror, wanted to shout something, but before the words could leave his mouth, the saber light, like an electric current, swiftly passed through his neck. His words were abruptly cut off, and he clutched his throat.

His eyes filled with fear and confusion, he fell to the ground unwillingly.

The saber light was like a meteor, weaving among the bandits, who fell one by one.

This was exactly the effect Shen Bei wanted!

Killing quickly and steadily, aiming for everyone to shut up and just die!

Only dead men tell no tales!

"The saber technique of a ninth-rank Cultivator is truly terrifying!"

Fast, it was simply too fast!

It almost seemed like he was fighting a Martial God with all his might!

As for such a grand display of power?

In the You Family's Da Shouzi's opinion, it was like an elephant wanting to step on an ant; it only needed to lift its foot to crush the ant.

But instead, the elephant chose to jump a hundred meters high, then heavily stomp on the ant...

It was truly using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.

But no matter what, while the You Family members rejoiced at their survival, they were also endlessly surprised. Such a young ninth-rank Cultivator was truly rare.

However, seeing Shen Bei descend from the Void Realm, the You Family's Da Shouzi quickly dismounted and bowed to Shen Bei, saying: "I am You Tan. Thank you, adult, for saving our lives!"

He had no idea that Shen Bei was the mastermind who had just organized the bandits to besiege the You Family...

Shen Bei nodded slightly, with the arrogance of a young Genius. He glanced at them and said: "Your surname is You? Do you know Young Master You Feng of the You Family?"

The You Family's Da Shouzi said happily: "Adult, do you know our Third Young Master? I am of the same clan as the Third Young Master, and my son works under him."

Shen Bei's expression softened a little: "So, you are a clansman of Brother You Feng. What a coincidence. Speaking of which, I haven't seen Brother You Feng in a long time. Is Brother You Feng at home? This would be a good opportunity to go find him for a drink."

How cunning Shen Bei was.

Sacrificing the bandits, he managed to get closer to the You Family with just a few words.

As for You Feng... he had already been killed by himself.

Another excuse with no one left alive to contradict him.

And at this moment, the You Family's Da Shouzi was even more delighted. This young man was actually good friends with the Third Young Master, so their lives were guaranteed.

"The Third Young Master should be in the Imperial City," the You Family Grandmaster said. "If the adult wishes to see the Third Young Master, I'm afraid you'll have to go to the Imperial City. It's just a pity that our supplies were stolen; otherwise, we would be delivering supplies to the Imperial City this time, and we could have conveniently taken the adult with us."

The You Family's Da Shouzi had a hidden agenda, hoping that Shen Bei would help him retrieve the supplies.

Shen Bei naturally understood his hidden agenda and replied: "Your supplies are still there. I passed by earlier, and those bandits attacked me, so I dealt with them casually. I just wanted to return the supplies to you, which is why I hurried here."

The You Family members were even more delighted, and at the same time, they asked: "There was a ninth-rank Cultivator among them. Did the adult also deal with him?"

"One saber strike was all it took!" Shen Bei lied without batting an eyelid, even with a hint of arrogance.

This made the You Family's Da Shouzi overjoyed. He turned to his subordinates and said: "Ride quickly and tell Lord Sixth what happened, and ask Lord Sixth to send more people to escort the supplies!"

After seeing his subordinate leave, he turned to Shen Bei again and said: "Please wait, adult. Our You Family will immediately send people to escort the supplies to the Imperial City, and then we can take the adult to see the Third Young Master."

Shen Bei nodded slightly, still maintaining an arrogant expression.

And the You Family's Da Shouzi saw this and had no dissatisfaction. A ninth-rank Cultivator so young naturally had his pride.

As a seventh-rank Cultivator, he was a big shot in front of ordinary people, but in front of Shen Bei, he was nothing. In front of ninth-rank Cultivators, apart from Martial Gods, only those with status were worthy of their high regard.

He guessed... that the other party would step in to save them. He probably guessed that they were from the You Family, after all, the You Family's seal was used on all those supplies.

This time... it was thanks to the Third Young Master!

Soon, people from the You Family arrived.

Leading them was an eighth-rank Cultivator, riding not an ordinary horse, but a Dragon Horse with horns.

"Greetings, Lord Sixth!" Seeing the Cultivator riding the Dragon Horse, the You Family's Da Shouzi quickly stepped forward to bow.

The man called Lord Sixth, You Zhi, nodded to him and said: "Where is Feng'er's friend?!"

The You Family's Da Shouzi led him to where Shen Bei was resting. Lord Sixth, You Zhi, dismounted and smiled at Shen Bei, saying: "Thank you, Young Master, for your righteous intervention this time."

Shen Bei reined in his arrogance, a smile on his Face, and politely said: "Senior, what are you saying? Brother You and I are close friends. How could I not help when I see his clansmen in trouble?"

"Hahaha! You Feng is truly fortunate to have a friend like you. May I ask your esteemed name, Young Master? And where did you and Feng'er meet?"

Shen Bei said: "Junior Shen Bei. Brother You and I met in a restaurant."

Shen Bei spoke vaguely like this. If the Third Young Master dared to press further, it would be disrespecting him.

You Zhi nodded naturally, without asking for details about how they met, because he never thought anyone would impersonate him.

He only saw that Shen Bei was a ninth-rank Cultivator, so he curiously asked: "May I ask where you are from?"

"This..." Shen Bei's Face showed a troubled expression.

Seeing Shen Bei like this, You Zhi was not angry. Some people liked to hide their origins.

"Hahaha, if it's inconvenient, then don't say it."

Shen Bei breathed a sigh of relief and bowed, saying: "My family has a rule not to casually reveal our origins to avoid trouble."

"No matter!" You Zhi did not delve deeper. This person wanted to see You Feng, so he could just ask You Feng when they met. Since they were good friends, You Feng should know some of his background.

You Zhi chatted with Shen Bei for a while longer, then he said: "I heard Senior is going to the Imperial City. May I ask if you can take me along? I have never been to the Imperial City, and I haven't seen Brother You in a long time, so I'd like to reunite."

"Of course!" You Zhi agreed. "You don't have to call me Senior anymore. Since you and Feng'er are good friends, just call me Uncle."

"Thank you, Uncle!" Shen Bei said politely.

Look, a self-directed and self-acted good show, and the only winner was himself.

Didn't he just blend in?

Not only his identity, but also accommodation, food and drink, connections, etc., everything was resolved!

Killing multiple birds with one stone!
