However, the road was close by and would save a lot of time, which was too dangerous. Not only were there a large number of spirit beast, but there seemed to be bandits stationed here as well, and the leader of the bandits was at the level of a grand achievement in Spiritual Movement Stage. Hence, even if this place was close, not many people would dare to pass through.
Of course, this was only true for ordinary people. This shortcut was like the gateway to "hell". No one dared to go there, but for cultivators, this place was not that terrifying.
Actually, the thing to be explained here was that the bandits here were rather 'righteous', and they usually only robbed money without harming anyone. If the goods were robbed but had no money to give, then it didn't matter, as long as you had the money, the goods would definitely be returned to you unharmed.
Most importantly, they would definitely not rob the weak. As for how the weak should be defined, only they themselves knew. Or rather, it should be decided according to their own way of doing things.
In any case, these bandits were terrifying, but they did not cause anyone to be angry. Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to stay within the territory of the Spiritual Sky Academy. However, there was a reason why they were able to stay.
Originally, it would only take three or four days to complete the short distance. Xian Xiaoguo was willing to choose the latter. Even if this route was a bit dangerous, it was nothing to him.
Later on, under Xian Xiaoguo's insistence, the quest team had followed her to this shortcut. However, they did not know if it was because they were really lucky or not as they did not encounter any bandits on the way, not even a single spirit beast.
Just when everyone thought that the bandits and spirit beast here had disappeared and that they could take this shortcut in the future, Xian Xiaoguo told them that he did not. The reason he did not see the bandits and spirit beast was because she had "greeted" them in advance.
At this point, Ye Xuan could almost imagine the process of Xian Xiaoguo greeting the bandits. He smiled helplessly and said, "You didn't do anything to them, right?"
"No, I just 'played' with them for a while. They are also very 'hospitable', and they were very friendly to me, so I didn't do anything to them." Xian Xiaoguo grinned and added, "What's more, they are bandits. Even if I kill them, it wouldn't be too much."
Xian Xiaoguo's words made sense. Ye Xuan first nodded his head, then shook it and said, "Killing them is indeed not excessive, but they may not necessarily be people who are destined to die."
After saying that, he saw a puzzled expression on Xian Xiaoguo's face. Ye Xuan then continued, "Think about it, whose territory is this? It's the territory of the Spiritual Sky Academy, and the people who act recklessly in their own territory are the ones that they hate the most."
"However, I've heard that the bandits over there haven't existed for a year or two. Say, if they deserve to die, according to the style of the Spiritual Sky Academy, would they still be able to survive until today?"
