The handsome man’s eyebrows moved slightly. He didn’t even dodge. He stood there steadily and looked at the three attacks of fighting energy coming at him. He clenched his fists fiercely and a dazzling green light spread from his fingers. The little boy was immediately shocked when he saw this. “A mage?”

“Swish…!” A green wind blade came out of the man’s hand and jumped in the air at an extremely high speed, cutting the fighting energy attacks of the three of them in half! The three of them widened their mouths in shock when they saw this. The handsome man looked up. “Why aren’t you getting lost?”

The hearts of the three of them immediately tightened! This person was obviously stronger than the three of them! It seemed that he was also someone who cared about the potion. With him here, they definitely wouldn’t have a chance!

“Let’s go!” The three of them could only say angrily as they turned around and left at an extremely high speed. The deep alley returned to peace again. The man turned around and looked at the little boy with his light blue eyes. The little boy took half a step back slightly. “You’re here for the potion too? I really don’t have any on me.”

The man frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “I’m here on orders to protect you. I’m not interested in the potion you mentioned.”

The boy was extremely surprised. “You’re here on orders? Whose orders? That seller?”

The man didn’t answer. He looked around to make sure that he was fine. “There’s no need to tell you. Don’t step into an alley like this casually. You’re already delicious food in the eyes of the wolves right now. Even if the potion isn’t with you, you won’t be able to escape.”

The boy nodded as if he understood. “Although I don’t quite understand what you’re saying, I know… The people here are too fierce… It’s better to leave as soon as possible.”

The man raised his brows. “It’s indeed not bad to have such a thought.” Then, his body flashed and he disappeared from the spot. The little boy was immediately a bit flustered. “Where are you? You’re gone? What if someone attacks me again?”

“I’m right here with you. Don’t panic. Do your thing as soon as possible and set off quickly.” The man’s deep voice came. The little boy heaved a sigh of relief. “Got it. After doing what Master asked me to do, I’ll leave immediately!” He looked around with his black eyes and the little boy quickly walked out of the alley, hiding in the crowd.

“My lord, that was…!” The voice was full of surprise. “It seems that it’s not easy to get the potion!”

The man in his early thirties looked extremely gloomy and even colder than before. After hearing what his subordinate said, he said, “The person who attacked just then… was a Magic Beast.”

“A Magic Beast?!” The subordinate was extremely shocked. “My lord, a Magic Beast is following that kid! Who exactly sent a Magic Beast?”

The man in his early thirties had coldness in his black eyes. “No matter who it is, they must be related to summoners to be able to control a Magic Beast like that. ”

“If they’re really a summoner, wouldn’t they be quite tricky?”

The man in his early thirties frowned. “When exactly did this kid have a connection with a summoner? Judging from the strength of that Magic Beast just then, it’s quite strong! This summoner is also quite strong. Is he a master hired by that seller?”

“My lord, I think that’s the only possibility.”

“Humph! Having taken a kid’s words seriously, that seller is just so-so. We must get the Zen Master-level potion for the Alliance Master! If she doesn’t agree to the conditions we made earlier, we can only use force!”

In the Yun house, Yun Feng was sitting in the main hall and thinking. Lan Yi’s voice came. “Master, someone had already attacked just then. As Master thought, this little boy became everyone’s target, but the person who attacked wasn’t what Master said.”

“Yes, got it.” Yun Feng sent a telepathic message. “Protect him well. With your ability, he should be fine.”

“Yes, Master!”

After cutting off the connection, Yun Feng’s black eyes darkened slightly. She had already expected that someone would attack. The news spread on purpose. Those two people were the only ones who could spread the news. She thought they would attack first, but it was someone else. It seemed that the journey with the little boy wouldn’t be safe.

“What’s wrong? You look a bit gloomy.” Qu Lanyi walked in and touched Yun Feng’s cheek. Yun Feng smiled gently. “Nothing. It’s just that my buyer seems to be in some trouble.”

“That kid?” Qu Lanyi raised his brows. “The news spread so quickly. Someone must be unable to hold back and will attack him sooner or later.”

“So, it gives me a headache.” Yun Feng curled her lips. Qu Lanyi smiled. “Didn’t you send Lan Yi there? With Lan Yi’s strength, nothing will happen.”

Yun Feng nodded. Luckily, she was a summoner, or it would really be a headache. She couldn’t be someone’s personal bodyguard all day, could she? “I got some information from Master about the so-called master that that little boy mentioned.”

“What did Senior Feng say?”

“I asked Master if there’s such a person in this world who’s extremely proficient in herbs and can grow a lot of precious herbs, but doesn’t know anything about making medicine. Master told me clearly that it makes sense if the guy grows herbs. After all, being proficient in herbs is just accumulation of Imowledge, but many precious herbs can’t be cultivated manually. They can only be nurtured by nature. In this world, no matter how long ago it was, nobody could grow precious herbs manually.”

“So, is that kid lying?

Yun Feng frowned and raised her black eyes. “Not necessarily. Master said that nobody among humans can do it, but… there’s a Magic Beast that can.”

“Magic Beast?” Qu Lanyi was surprised. Yun Feng sighed. “To be honest, I don’t believe it either. Even if Master said so, I still have some doubts. Even though Magic Beasts and humans are from two completely different races, they’re all life forms after all.”

“There are too many differences between Magic Beasts and humans, and there are huge differences in terms of souls. Besides, Magic Beasts aren’t like humans. They live in a natural and primitive environment. Their understanding of nature should be better than that of humans. A Magic Beast’s physical fitness far exceeds that of humans. This might be the training of nature.” Qu Lanyi raised his brows. “Did Senior Feng say what kind of Magic Beast it is?”

Yun Feng chuckled and said, “Stonemother..”
