Supreme Grandpa

Chapter 127 - Disappearance

Seeing that the two giant beasts did not intend to do anything to him and his team, Xie Tong and the others breathed a sigh of relief secretly.

But as the big bird looked ever, Xie Tong's body shuddered uncontrollably. Just as he was sweating profusely, the giant bird suddenly beckoned towards the giant green wolf before turning around, and leaving.

In that second, Xie Tong managed to muster up his courage and let out a shout that scared his teammates, "Wait!"

Xiao Laofei and Xiao Lang stopped their steps and looked back with wonder.

Seeing this, Xie Tong took a deep breath and bowed slightly, "Thank you… for saving us! If there's anything we can help with, please contact my numb…"

Before he could finish his words, Xiao Laoxu who was standing on Xiao Laofei interrupted, "Squeak, squeak…"

Hearing the squeaking sounds, Xie Tong and the others looked at Xiao Laoxu confusedly. Didn't he just talk in human words earlier? How come he talks in the mouse language now?

In fact, it had to do with the carelessness of Xiao Laoxu. Yang Song warned him again and again that he must never speak human words in front of outsiders, he actually did it not long ago. So now, Xiao Laoxu could only act ignorant and squeak constantly in the language of the mouse.

Xiao Laoxu knew that these humans could not understand his current words, so he pointed to the corpse of the big silver wolf and squeaked again.

Xie Tong and the others understood instantly.

"I see; I will carry it for you. But please wait for my teammates to recover first," Xie Tong looked at his several teammates who were still lying on the ground and said.

…

Not long after, a group of people was walking behind a group of big beasts. There was no torch or flashlight, only the light of the silver moon that guided the group along the way.

But that was only limited to the group of humans behind, the three beasts in the front had no problem in finding the way back.

Soon, they came to a vacant place where trees were quite scarce. But what caught the humans' attention was that there was actually an old man with a long white beard and long white hair standing there silently.

The gust of wind rushed past and made the old man's ancient-looking robe and white hair dance flutteringly in the wind.

Looking from afar, he was no different from an old celestial who came to inspect the lower world.

This old man was none other than Yang Song, it was just that he had transformed his appearance to look like a worldly and urbane expert.

Currently, he was looking at the moon with his hands behind his back. As if feeling the breaths of other people, he slowly exhaled and turned around.

Xie Tong and his teammates saw Yang Song and were about to say something, but the giant wolf and the giant scavenger along with the golden mouse suddenly walked to the side of Yang Song.

Then, an incredible scene happened before their eyes. The giant green wolf suddenly became smaller and smaller, and soon, he became a puppy and stood beside Yang Song.

The giant scavenger was also the same. The original four meters high body suddenly shifted and became the size of a little chick.

The puppy and the scavenger stood beside the golden mouse and stood beside Yang Song docilely.

Xie Tong and the group instantly understood that these beasts were the pets of this old man. Immediately, Xie Tong came back to his senses and took the initiative to speak, "H-hello senior, thank you for helping us earlier."

In Xie Tong's opinion, the giant beasts saved him was ultimately because of the consent of their owner, in other words, this old man. So there was nothing wrong with thanking Yang Song.

Yang Song nodded noncommittal and said softly, "Are you familiar with this White Mountain forest?"

Xie Tong hurriedly said, "I am not, nor are my teammates. This is actually our first time here. If senior did not take action to help us this time, I am afraid…"

Yang Song waved his hand casually and continued, "What is your purpose of coming here, then?"

Xie Tong looked at Zhou Xiang and the others slightly before he decided to tell the truth, "We… we came here in hope to find treasures. Along the way, we indeed found a corpse of giant snake, which can be said to be a treasure for us. But before that…"

Without Yang Song asking, Xie Tong recounted what happened including the fact that he tried to find the person who killed the giant snake so as not to generate any possible conflicts with the other party.

Yang Song listened quietly without interrupting him. When Xie Tong finished speaking, Yang Song nodded slightly and pointed in a certain direction, "Well, if you want to leave, go straight in that direction. You young people should cherish your life more. It's not bad that you could step into this place despite knowing the danger inside. But if you want to explore for treasures, go to other safer places. Your level of strength is far from having the qualification to enter here. You should thank your great luck and your loyalty."

With that, without waiting for Xie Tong and the others to say anything, Yang Song immediately turned around. With a wave of his hand, Xiao Lang, Xiao Laofei, and Xiao Laoxu were lifted into the air by an invisible power and fell into the bag that had appeared without anyone knowing.

Then, in the astonished eyes of Xie Tong and the others, Yang Song gestured slightly and a blue sword manifested, and without a word, Yang Song jumped up and stood on the sword before flying away magically.

Whoosh!

After a moment, the sword increased its speed and Yang Song flew out like a meteorite, disappearing into the depth of the forest.

Only then did Xie Tong think of something and he shouted, "Senior! Thank you for saving us! But the silver wolf…"

Zhou Xiang suddenly tapped on Xie Tong shoulder and reminded, "You don't have to shout. That senior has already taken it long ago. Well, let's repay back his kindness in the future if fate permits."

It was until Zhou Xiang said this did Xie Tong notice that the giant silver wolf that was placed on the ground behind him earlier had already disappeared.

Xie Tong then looked at his several teammates, and his teammates also looked back at him. They could see the mass of astonishments in each other's eyes.

What they had encountered today had completely refreshed their worldview, but the near-death experience they had encountered today left a psychological shadow on them. However, it still did not stop them from being enthusiastic about the fact that they had met an incredible person today.

"Not only could he tame those strong beasts, but that senior could also fly on a sword like a… like a…" Xie Tong scratched his head and tried to think of that word.

"A sword immortal?" Zhou Xiang helped him.

"Right! Sword immortal! He looks like a sword immortal mentioned in the "Legend of the Immortal Jade Sword" displayed on the Runningnovel site."

"Speaking of this, so there are immortal cultivators in this world too?"

"The point is that we saw a sword immortal in the flesh and talked with him today!"

"Tsk, stop lying. It's our leader who talked with him, not you!"

"…"

Xie Tong saw this and sighed secretly in relief. It was good that these guys did not become depressed because of what they had experienced today.

Soon, Xie Tong said to them, "Let's end the word here. We have to leave this place as soon as possible."

"But leader, the giant snake and our backpacks…"

"Tsk, don't be greedy, it's good that we can leave there alive. Do you still want to go back there? Well, if you regret those backpacks and the giant snake, you can go back there alone. We're leaving first…"

"No, Zhou Xiang, you big bully, don't leave me alone. Wait for me…"

…

The encounter earlier was just a small episode. Fate was just a small part of the reason that made Yang Song save them. It was the heroic act and loyalty of those young people that Yang Song decided to save them.

In the face of death, Xie Tong decided to sacrifice himself in order to let his teammates have a chance to escape. Yang Song loved this kind of loyal people the most, so he decided to save them.

Yang Song whizzed like the wind over the forest. Soon, he came to the place that Xiao Laoxu had told him. It was the place where the man who injured Xiao Laoxu battled with the giant snake. And it was also the place that Xie Tong and his team first encountered the wolf pack.

But seeing the clean ground in front of him, Yang Song asked Xiao Laoxu suddenly, "Are you sure this is the right place?"

Xiao Laoxu climbed on Yang Song's shoulder and looked at the place in front of him with a stunned face, and he nodded, "Squeak, this is the right place. Laoxu is very sure…"

Yang Song fell into silence. Xiao Laoxu had the best treasure hunting talent and his ability to remember the place of treasure was absolutely unrivaled. So what happened to this place? Who took the corpse of the giant snake?

And Yang Song also remembered that Xie Tong had told that his backpacks were also left here. But where were the backpacks? Could it be that Xie Tong lied? No, the possibility was almost close to zero.

So who took away everything here?
