Chapter 569: Chapter 283: Water? I have plenty of water here! _1 freewёbnoνel.com

Young people always tend to have a strong sense of compassion, and this girl might teach Fang Mu a good lesson.

Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun had no idea that Fang Mu had already sensed the peculiarities of the situation before the girl had even emerged from behind the rock!

When Fang Mu was still a student accompanying his old professor on field trips, he was earnestly warned.

When away from populated areas, it’s best not to respond to strangers who approach or ask for help.

Indeed, there’s a possibility that they’re genuinely seeking help, but more often, the plea for help itself is a lethal trap.

Regardless of whether human nature is inherently good or evil, the malice in human nature can never be erased.

Fang Mu is not devoid of compassion, but he maintains a degree of self-protection after showing mercy.

Upon arrival, Shui Miao, Shu Liangjun, and She Wan immediately smelled a strong scent of blood.

Fang Mu isn’t particularly sensitive to the smell of blood, but after being alerted by the others, he also noticed it.

If this group of people had been hiding here all along, they could not possibly have been oblivious to the killings nearby.

If they were aware of the killings, fear should be their prevailing emotion.

In such a situation, no matter how thirsty or hungry, they would do everything possible to hide themselves, not to ask strangers for water!

And even when the girl asked for water, she mentioned exchanging supplies for it.

Moreover, there was not a hint of fear in the girl’s eyes when she ran over, nor did her running posture suggest that she was weak.

Instead, the girl was shimmying her hips vigorously, giving off a very enchanting vibe.

This poise reminded him of the girls under the pink lights on a whole street of KTV establishments.

A person deprived of food and water would not be able to carry themselves in such a manner.

It seemed he was being treated as a “fattened sheep”! How interesting!

The pervasive smell of blood in the air was likely the handiwork of this very group.

Shui Miao had said earlier that the stench of blood was fresh. Looking around, the only potential hiding place in the vicinity was a large rock.

Those who had previously shown mercy or greed were probably now lying eternally behind that rock.

A Looting Group that kills travelers using compassion as bait indicates they don’t have real skills. This method is adopted in hopes of catching their victims off guard.

Secondly, they fear not having the ability to chase after the targets in case they flee.

Fang Mu detests people who take advantage of others’ kindness and compassion to rob and kill.

By now, the girl had run up to Fang Mu.

“Sir, could you trade some water with us?”

“We’ve been thirsty for a long time, look, my lips have even cracked from the dryness!”

Although the girl’s clothes were ragged from the run, they weren’t revealing.

However, during the run, the girl’s upper garment had somehow torn open a few large holes, which even She Wan found hard to watch.

“Water? I have plenty of it. You can trade as much as you want.”

“But I’m a little curious, who is the man who just showed himself related to you?”

The girl was taken aback upon hearing Fang Mu’s question. It seemed she didn’t expect this handsomely dressed young man with an impressive demeanor to ask her such a question.

But the girl quickly responded, with a pitiful expression on her face.

“That man earlier is my father. We were originally following a caravan, trying to earn a living, but we didn’t expect the caravan to be ambushed by the Looting Group, and everyone scattered!”

“My father’s leg was injured while escaping and hinders his mobility, so I had to go out and beg for water!”

The girl seemed afraid that Fang Mu might question why it was herself, not her father, asking for water, hence she offered an explanation preemptively.

However, this irrelevant explanation proved enough that the girl was feeling guilty at this time.

The Looting Group typically acts decisively. If they intended to attack a caravan, would they give people from the caravan an opportunity to run away?

Furthermore, even if her father were truly injured, using his daughter as an excuse was unjustifiable.

The girl deliberately emphasized that it was only her and her father, yet Fang Mu knew that the number of burly men hiding behind the rock was no less than twenty.

Otherwise, this Looting Group wouldn’t dare to confront them.

Fang Mu didn’t want to waste time talking with the girl, and said directly.

“Take me there. I have some medicinal herbs that can help treat your father’s injuries.”

Upon hearing this, a surprised and grateful look appeared on the girl’s face.

With this caliber of acting skills, she could have won at least three major awards in Fang Mu’s previous life.

“Really? Thank you so much! I’ll lead the way!”

The moment the girl turned her head, her facial expression changed instantly.

This smile bloomed like a wicked flower on her hypocritical face.

Shu Liangjun and Shui Miao followed Fang Mu, their expressions unchanged.

These Looting Groups floating about the border area of the Panfeng Federation usually have up to Gold Tier Guardian Beasts. If they had stronger forces, they wouldn’t choose to be here!

Fang Mu could handle enemies of this caliber on his own.

On the other hand, She Wan found it difficult to look at the girl guiding the way.

Eventually, She Wan decided not to interfere with Fang Mu’s hard-earned opportunity to learn about the wickedness of human nature and to handle the situation on his own.

Otherwise, She Wan would have directly summoned the Silver Void Purple Spider to deal with these people from the Looting Group!

The girl leading the way was busy making calculations in her mind.
