Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 568 - Journey

Mo Fan and the others were stunned by what Ren did. Either Ren was an incredibly stupid person to fall asleep in front of strangers or an incredibly powerful person who didn't see them as a threat at all. After witnessing Ren's fight against the Sand Dragon it was obvious that Ren was the latter of the two.

"Are we really going to bring him back to the city?" One of Mo Fan's men spoke as he looked at the unconscious Ren. "We could just leave him here and based on what he said it doesn't seem like he knows his way around here, so he wouldn't be able to find us."

"So you want to leave behind the person who saved us?"

"You heard what he said it was just a coincidence that he rescued us. Also, are you sure we should bring such a dangerous person back to the city?"

"Even if that's true, it's also true that if he didn't come we would've been eaten by the Sand Dragon. I don't know about you, but I don't want to be the kind of b*stard that doesn't know how to repay a life debt. Not to mention, have you ever thought of what would happen if we leave him here without fulfilling our end of the deal?... It would be good if he doesn't find his way to our city but once he does he would take revenge. Even if our Clan could stop him, how much will we sacrifice? By then we'll become the sinners of our clan. So knowing all that, do you still not want to bring him?"

The person who suggested leaving Ren behind became silent, and so did the others who had similar thoughts as him. After a short pause, Mo Fan asked a question.

"So does anyone still object to bringing him back to the city?" Everyone shook their heads in response.

"Alright, since we all agree let's get going, if we're lucky we could catch up to Mo Ye before he reaches the teleportation array."

Mo Fan then approached Ren's body and carried him. He could not risk the others carrying Ren since it was possible that they might have some ill intent. Since Ren had already warned them, Mo Fan was afraid to risk it. What if, they just had a single thought of attacking Ren for just a moment, and Ren suddenly moves to kill them all. Just the thought of that made Mo Fan nervous.

Even though they already resolved themselves to die just moments ago, the situation right now was different and if they died because of something stupid, then wouldn't it have been better to die honorably in the Sand Dragon's claws.

...

During their journey, Mo Fan who was carrying Ren was constantly being surprised by the unconscious Ren. Despite being unconscious Ren was absorbing the origin energy in the area much faster than any other person Mo Fan has ever seen. Even the genius of the Mo Clan could not absorb so much origin energy in so little time, and Ren was doing it while asleep.

That wasn't all, during their journey to the Teleportation Array the group had not encountered any beasts. Which was different from what their initial journey was like where they would spot beasts in every corner, but now it seems like these beasts were actively avoiding them. It was obvious that it was Ren the beasts were avoiding. Despite being unconscious Ren's sheer presence made the demon beasts and even the divine beasts walk the other way.

When the others saw this scene they felt relieved that they followed Mo Fan's advice and did not do anything to Ren. If they did anything, it was obvious that even asleep Ren could've killed them all.

...

The journey towards the Teleportation Array was quite long. It would've taken them at least five days to reach it, but due to Ren's deterrence, it seems like it would only take them three days at most to reach their destination.

On the second day, the group felt Mo Ye's presence but it was weakening. The group quickly dashed towards the place where they felt Mo Ye's presence, they then saw Mo Ye fighting a group of people. Mo Ye had even lost an arm to these b*stards.

"You people, what do you think you're doing to a member of the Mo Clan?!"

Mo Fan roared at the bandits. Seeing Mo Fan and the others, the bandits stopped attacking, on the other hand, Mo Ye could not help but tear up as he approached the group.

"Elder, everyone, you're alive!"

"We already told you we won't be too far behind." When Mo Ye heard their voices he started smiling.

"I knew you guys would come, I knew it!"

"So what happened to you, who are these b*stards?"

The bandits outnumbered Mo Fan's group but they did not dare get closer. The aura the newcomers were emitting was beyond the body forging stage, the old man, in particular, was someone they should never mess with.

As Mo Ye was explaining how the bandits attacked and cornered him, Mo Fan's expression grew worse and worse. The moment when Mo Ye told how the bandits had cut off his arm, Mo Fan and the others were having a hard time holding their killing intent. Still, they needed to hold it in, as even though it wouldn't be directed at Ren, it might anger him.

"Each one of you cut off an arm and leave, if you don't wish to do so then you can leave your lives here today."

The Bandits hesitated as they did not like either option. As they continued to hesitate another group of bandits arrived.

"Oh, you're telling my men what to do, who gave you the balls to do that?" Mo Fan looked at the newcomer who was riding a tenth-level body forging demon beast. Mo Fan frowned as he could sense that this newcomer was a level above him.. Aside from him, the other bandits were all at the beginning level of the Qi gathering stage.
