Chapter 12: Weighing the Pros and Cons

Pei Xuanjing's target this time is Anping Prefecture. After all, Anping Prefecture is the nearest big city to him and the place where most Northwest Road warriors are entrenched.

As for the purpose of this trip, of course, it is for the secret blessed land more than a year later.

Although the results of many life simulations about the secret blessed land are not very good, they are full of huge risks and crises. But the same huge crisis will also be accompanied by huge rewards.

Regardless of whether to enter the secret blessed land next, at least arrive in Anping Prefecture first, and then make a decision.

However, since there is still a long time, he is riding on the horseback, but he did not urge the horse under his crotch to gallop, but just swayed forward.

Although it is said that with the help of the life simulator, the practice of martial arts has made great progress, but Pei Xuanjing has never put all his efforts on it.

Internally cultivate the three realms, nourish the five internal organs and bone marrow with true qi, and wait for the realm of great success. Even if you swallow gold and iron, you will not hurt your internal organs.

The main practice of the sixth-grade warrior is to nourish and strengthen his five internal organs with true qi.

While studying the martial arts notes he got from Jiang Yan, he refined and accumulated Dao Yun, while nourishing his true Qi and five internal organs.

Then he went with the flow, advancing during the day and resting at night, observing the changes of day and night, feeling the nature, and understanding the world.

He had been traveling for more than half a month, and he had accumulated a lot of Dao Yun, whether it was refining the martial arts notes or feeling the nature of the world.

However, due to the breakthrough in his realm, the Dao Yun value required for his next life simulation also increased, and he needed to accumulate 2,000 points before he could start.

Along the way, including the previous retention, it is only 1,430 points now, which is far from enough to start the next life simulation.

One day, when passing through a narrow valley, Pei Xuanjing, who was originally studying the martial arts notes, suddenly looked condensed, put away the notes in his hand, and looked forward.

As a sixth-grade warrior, he had sharp ears and eyes and heard the sound of fighting from afar.

‘I remember this happened during the last life simulation. It seems that a caravan was robbed by bandits.’ Pei Xuanjing thought.

After some consideration, he chose a hidden path and slowly approached.

Pei Xuanjing never thought that he was a good person, and of course he didn’t think that he was a bad person.

If someone wanted to hurt him, he would fight back without hesitation; if he had the ability to rescue someone when he encountered unfair things, he would not hesitate to help, but he couldn’t sacrifice himself to save people.

As for the description of this incident in the life simulator, Pei Xuanjing didn’t care too much about it when he easily solved these bandits.

The existence of the life simulator was originally an accident. Is the self in the life simulation the real self?

Yes and no. It was just one of the countless branches of his next life choice.

So even if he encountered these caravans being robbed by bandits, he would have to weigh whether he had enough ability to take action. If these bandits were not strong, then he would undoubtedly choose to help.

But if the strength of these bandits exceeds Pei Xuanjing's ability to target them, then he will not take action, even if the people in these caravans may be innocent.

Kill the rich and help the poor, act on behalf of heaven, and eliminate harm for the people.

All kinds of words are placed on those bandits, but they are just used to cover themselves with a layer of disguise. In any case, they can't cover up the brutal, disorderly, chaotic, and evil nature of these bandits.

Standing on a high place, Pei Xuanjing can easily see the scene in the distance.

The bandits holding various weapons are divided into two groups and block the two ends of the valley, blocking a caravan in the middle.

The number of bandits is obviously more than that of the caravan. In addition to the bandits who are fighting, there are seven or eight bandits led by a bandit who is obviously dressed as a leader, looting on the side.

Two eighth-grade, five ninth-grade, and the rest are all bandits who are not in the stream.

After weighing it, Pei Xuanjing has been sure in his heart that this group of bandits has no existence that can threaten him, so he can take action.

After making up his mind, Pei Xuanjing went down from the height, returned to the main road, and rushed over on a fast horse.

"If I can go back this time, I will definitely file a complaint with the Lord of the Mansion. Are those people in the Qianhu Office just eating dry food? No one knows that so many bandits have gathered here." Looking at those arrogant bandits, Shen Xiang thought viciously in his heart.

He is the third shopkeeper of Anping Mansion of Shen's Chamber of Commerce. He was born in the second branch of the Shen family. Originally, this kind of escort of goods was done by his younger brother Shen Chu, and he didn't need to do it himself.

But just before departure, Shen Chu broke his leg in an accident, so he had to make this trip himself.

Originally, it was a safe journey when he went there, but Shen Xiang never expected that on the way back, when he was about to arrive in a few days, something unexpected happened.

These bandits have unusual origins. Even if he offered a bribe, the other party refused to agree, as if he had to kill him and others.

"Shopkeeper, look there." The guard next to him pointed to an exit of the valley.

Shen Xiang looked over and saw that the bandits, who were originally aggressive, suddenly lost their composure, as if they were attacked.

"Are there reinforcements?" Shen Xiang was overjoyed.

No matter what the person was like, at least he had hope of survival.

"Quick, charge over there." Shen Xiang commanded immediately.

On the other side of the valley, Pei Xuanjing was spotted by the bandits when he was still a hundred feet away from the bandits.

When the bandits saw that Pei Xuanjing was alone, the bandit leader immediately commanded a dozen bandits to ride towards Pei Xuanjing.

Seeing this, Pei Xuanjing did not dodge. He unsheathed the ancient pine-patterned sword, the sword light was sharp, and he galloped. As a sixth-grade warrior, he almost crushed those ordinary bandits, and they couldn't even do the simplest block.

The horses met and came ten feet away from the bandit leader. Pei Xuanjing jumped from his horse, several feet high in the air, and the true energy flowed on the sword body. A green sword energy about three feet long slashed down in the air.

The bandit leader, an eighth-grade warrior, was beheaded by Pei Xuanjing before he could even say a word.

The bandits were originally a mob. Seeing their leader dead, they no longer had the will to fight and immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

Seeing the bandits disperse, Shen Xiang did not ask the guards to chase them. He only asked them to gather and rescue the guards who were injured or dead, and he walked towards Pei Xuanjing.
