Chapter 41: Chapter 40: Destined Confrontation: The Caravan Ambush and the Ethereal Ascension Rune

A few moments earlier.

With a quick nod from Xie Fang, Luo Tian commanded Radiant Hawk to swoop down towards the source of the blood-curdling scream. He made sure to keep their altitude high enough to remain invisible, while still having a clear view of the situation below.

As they flew closer, Xie Fang was the first to spot the chaos unfolding on the ground. "Look brother Luo Tian, there are bandits attacking some people down there!" he exclaimed, pointing towards where a group of men were ambushing a helpless group of people.

'Bandits!' Luo Tian thought grimly, his mind immediately recalling his own encounters with bandits before in the 'mortal world'.

It was clear that these ruthless bandits had ambushed the other group of people and were now mercilessly attacking them. This was not an uncommon occurrence in both the cultivation world and the 'mortal world'.

"Let's go down there and help them," Xie Fang urged, his voice filled with determination.
