The noisy shouts got closer and closer, and soon a figure appeared in front of Cao Chuan through the bushes.
Different from what he saw in front of the entrance of the Demon God Forest, at this moment, Yu Shengnan's armor was completely shattered, and the spear in his hand was also broken. At the same time, the aura in his body was disordered, and there was not much spiritual power left.
But even at this point, Yu Shengnan still hugged the dragon's breath grass tightly in his arms.
Dragon's breath grass appears in the alchemy annotations. It is a medicinal material that can be used to refine the fifth-grade elixir "Yangji Xuandan". It also has good detoxification and health care effects when taken alone, and because of its relatively rare quantity, it is not available on the market.
The price has remained high.
A good-quality dragon's breath grass can sometimes even be sold for 100,000 mid-grade spiritual stones.
However, if you take a closer look at the one in Yu Shengnan's arms, you can see that the leaves are incomplete and yellow, so it is obviously not of good quality and can only be regarded as inferior.
"No matter how she got the Dragon's Breath Grass, she can at least persist until now despite being chased and intercepted by the mercenary group, which is enough to show her tenacity. If she can have the opportunity to practice well, her future achievements will definitely not be low."
Secretly sighing, Cao Chuan, who felt some movement below, was about to lower his head to see what Yu Shengnan was doing.
A flash of white snow suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, causing Cao Chuan to quickly turn his already red face away, not daring to lower his head again.
Under the tree, Yu Shengnan, who had been nervously waiting for a long time to see the mercenary group catch up, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After seeing a pool of spring water in front of him, he immediately took off his broken armor and blood-stained clothes, regardless of who was responsible for the body of the monster that fell on the shore, and revealed the body that he had never shown to outsiders.
Her graceful figure was soaked in the cool spring water.
But fearing that the mercenary group would catch up at any time, Yu Shengnan did not enjoy the hard-won tranquility. Instead, he cleaned the dirt on his body and immediately returned to the shore, then took out new clothes from his storage bag and put on them.
.
Only when his beautiful body was covered by clothes did Cao Chuan finally dare to turn his head.
Yu Shengnan, who had buried the armor and clothes she had replaced, was preparing to leave. She wanted to leave the Monster Forest as soon as possible.
But just when Yu Shengnan picked up the half-length spear and prepared to leave the monster forest.
The footsteps that had clearly gone away before suddenly echoed deafeningly around.
The next second, a dozen men wearing mercenary uniforms were seen emerging from the bushes with swords in hand, and then surrounded Yu Sheng's men.
One of the men with a scarred face walked forward a few steps with a huge sword on his back, confronted Yu Shengnan and said: "Yu Shengnan, just now was the last chance we gave you. Now, as long as you are willing to hand over the Dragon's Breath Grass,
Give it to us, and I can make the decision to let you go, otherwise today will be your death anniversary next year for Yu Shengnan!"
"Death anniversary? Hahahaha... Ridiculous!"
Even though he was surrounded by more than a dozen people, Yu Shengnan remained undaunted. He even laughed wildly and said, "I, Yu Shengnan, obviously found and picked that Dragon's Breath Grass, but you relied on the strength of your numbers to use force to force it."
I, Yu Shengnan, handed over the Dragon's Breath Grass, but you are still a bunch of grown men. If I tell you this, won't you be embarrassed?"
"What's more, do you really think that I, Yu Shengnan, will be afraid of you?"
The broken spear pointed directly at the person in front, and Yu Shengnan shouted sternly: "If you want to take away the Dragon's Breath Grass, you must first defeat me, Yu Shengnan!"
"Okay, okay... That's great! Yu Shengnan, you are asking for death!" The scarred man's expression suddenly became gloomy, and then he shouted: "Brothers, come on! If anyone can kill this stinky bitch and find the Dragon's Breath Grass,
I’ll give him 10,000 middle-grade spiritual stones!”
As the saying goes, money can make the world go round, and mercenaries are certainly not immune to this.
That was 10,000 mid-grade spiritual stones, which was already one-tenth of the price of Dragon Breath Grass.
When the scarred man finished speaking, the jealous mercenaries immediately rushed towards Yu Shengnan brandishing their swords.
No one gave in, and they all used their full strength to cut Yu Shengnan into pieces with thousands of knives.
A flash of panic flashed in Yu Shengnan's bloodshot eyes, which was then replaced by a strong fighting spirit.
She clenched the spear in her hand, used the little spiritual power left in her body, and planned to fight these mercenaries to the death.
The scarred man carrying a giant sword stood on the outside, looking ahead with a sneer on his face, as if he was very confident that Yu Shengnan would definitely die this time.
On the tree, Cao Chuan, who had never exposed himself, shook his head helplessly, secretly sighing at Yu Shengnan's misfortune.
Originally, he thought it was Yu Shengnan who had snatched the Dragon's Breath Grass from others, but he didn't expect that it was the other way around.
Mu Qingqiu's voice sounded at this time, and he said with regret: "If she were in her prime, this girl might not be able to break through the siege. However, she was seriously injured before, and there was not much spiritual power left in her body. Now
If I try to force it to run again, I'm afraid I won't be able to last even a few breaths."
"What Senior Mu said is right..."
While listening to what Mu Qingqiu said, Cao Chuan looked at the scarred man standing outside the crowd and said silently in his heart: "Although this scarred man has reached the seventh level of the innate realm, his aura is not stable, and he may not necessarily have it.
With corresponding strength, if you can attack with thunderous force, you should be able to defeat it with one move."
Perhaps because what happened to Yu Shengnan reminded Cao Chuan of the hardships he experienced at the ruins of ancient ferocious beasts, he could not helplessly watch Yu Shengnan besieged to death by mercenaries.
So he planned to capture the thief first, capture the king, deal with the scarred man, and then help Yu Shengnan.
Mu Qingqiu heard Cao Chuan's muttering, but unexpectedly did not say anything. He just let Cao Chuan gather his spiritual power and prepare for a move.
······
Time passed bit by bit.
Yu Shengnan, who was surrounded by mercenaries, had not yet recovered the spiritual power he had consumed during his previous escape, and was besieged by dozens of people, so he gradually fell into a disadvantage. He could only rely on life-threatening counterattacks to gain an extremely small chance for himself.
Hope of survival.
The scarred man standing outside the crowd was still smiling, and he never noticed Cao Chuan hiding in the tree behind him.
Cao Chuan, on the other hand, was well prepared and had already drawn the Heaven-Destroying Sword and held it in his hand.
Ahead, the crowd began to hear the voices of Yu Shengnan who was exhausted.
The scarred man's slightly raised corners revealed an even more arrogant sneer.
"Yu Shengnan, are you still thinking of being tough now?"
"Don't you really want to live?"
"Okay! Since you are really looking for death, then I will..."
The scarred man was only halfway through speaking when he saw a dazzling white light flashing past his eyes.
"Ugh!"
A severe pain followed and spread to the whole body in an instant.
The next second, his pupils shrank, and he realized that the scarred man had lost contact with his body. He opened his mouth slightly and wanted to say something, but was split into two when a figure rushed towards the crowd. He turned around after hearing the noise.
He fell to the ground in front of the mercenaries.
