Luan Jingfu and Sun Huang rode out of the city gate, traveling along the official road. The sky was just starting to lighten, and it was quiet outside the city, with the morning chill floating in the mountains and fields.
Sun Huang was at the Great Success Realm of the Inner Breath Fourth Level, while Luan Jingfu was a strong cultivator in the True Qi Realm. Both had become almost indifferent to the seasonal cold.
Sun Huang was a poor drinker, and having been heavily intoxicated by Luan Jingfu the previous night, he was still muddled atop his horse.
"Leader Sun, are you alright? Your drinking capacity is really quite poor!" Luan Jingfu looked at Sun Huang, chuckled, and said.
Sun Huang waved his hand while seated on the horse, saying, "No problem, just a bit dizzy — it doesn't affect the journey."
At that moment, suddenly two dark figures darted out from the roadside wilds at lightning speed, weapons in hand, attacking the two on horseback!
