Deep in the jungle, several embarrassed figures stumbled towards the outskirts of the forest, bleeding profusely.
"Huchi - Huchi -"
"Damn it, isn't it said that the golden elixir stage monsters are very independent and never act collectively? How come there are so many golden elixir stage monsters?" Song Hua complained as he ran.
"Who knows, is this useful now? Why don't you run away!"
"It's all you. You didn't have time to buy new ones after using the directional teleportation charm last time, so you forced everyone to enter the dense forest again!"
"Who knew we could encounter such a situation? Ask these two bodyguards, have they ever encountered a collective action in the Jindan period?"
"Four young masters, can you please stop arguing for now? Our top priority is to run to the outskirts of the dense forest and wait until we are out of danger before discussing our faults." The two bodyguards were sweating profusely as they ran. They knew that these young masters were not easy to take care of.
Last time, I encountered a six-tusked white elephant in the Nascent Soul stage. This time, I don’t know why I provoked several monster beasts in the late Golden Core stage.
What kind of luck is this!
In all their years of working as bodyguards, they had never encountered such an outrageous situation. One of their companions had died at the claws of the monster chasing them.
"Ouch--" Among the monsters chasing them was a one-eyed lone wolf with fierce and bloodthirsty eyes. It was it that bit a bodyguard to death.
The four paws of the one-eyed wolf are red, and it runs very fast like flying through the clouds.
It screamed, accelerated again, and rushed towards Song Hua and others.
"Damn it, it's the Red Cloud Wolf, probably the former wolf king. The new wolf king defeated it and drove it out!" Song Hua cursed.
When the one-eyed wolf heard Song Hua's yelling and cursing, his eyes became even colder. He kicked his legs back, jumped up high, and bit Song Hua's neck.
Song Hua turned around and looked at this scene, his face suddenly turned pale and he looked dead.
Just when he thought he was certain to die, he heard the sound of swords ringing in his ears.
Buzz —
The sound of the sword is short and powerful, and contains an inexplicable charm. Anyone who is not a swordsman must not thrust this sword.
A sword stabbed the one-eyed wolf, causing it to turn around quickly.
This sword was too fast, its reaction was too slow, and it was impossible to dodge.
It could only open its bloody mouth and take the sword forcefully.
The Qingfeng sword collided with the wolf's fang, making a harsh sound that made people's scalp numb.
The one-eyed wolf's mouth was full of blood, and only half of its sharp fangs were left.
Lu Yang took out another sword and swung it towards the one-eyed wolf.
At the same time, three other figures met three monster beasts.
Song Hua and others were overwhelmed by the sudden reinforcements. Should they go to help, continue running, or stay where they were?
Without giving Song Hua and others too much time to think, the one-eyed wolf king's head flew flying, and he could not die anymore.
Lu Yang put away the Qingfeng sword, a few drops of wolf blood splashed on his face
"Be careful, there is a monster in the sky!" Song Hua warned loudly.
When they reached the golden elixir stage, they could fly in the air. Song Hua and others originally planned to fly into the sky to escape, but there was a demon bird hovering in the sky. Anyone who flew into the air would be targeted by it.
The demon bird noticed Lu Yang's presence, flapped its wings, turned into a shower of meteors and arrows, and rushed towards Lu Yang.
Lu Yang had long noticed the existence of the demonic bird. Without raising his head, he raised the Qingfeng Sword casually, as if he was stretching in the early morning. The demonic bird directly hit the tip of the Qingfeng Sword, and his head was penetrated.
"Are you okay?" Lu Yang asked concernedly.
"You are..." Song Hua and others were shocked. The realm Lu Yang showed to the outside world was the late stage of foundation building, but how could he kill the one-eyed lone wolf and the monster bird in the late stage of foundation building?
"Tch, I was still a step too late." As he spoke, Meng Jingzhou also killed a monster beast, and his fists were covered with monster blood.
"Meng Jingzhou?" Song Hua widened his eyes and recognized Meng Jingzhou.
"Are you...Song Hua from the Song family?" Meng Jingzhou was a little unsure, mainly because the other party was too embarrassed and disgraced, like a refugee who had run away from somewhere, which was very different from the Song Hua in his impression.
Although the Song family is not as good as the Meng family, it is a big and well-known family in the imperial capital with superior living conditions. The last time I saw Song Hua, they were singing and dancing on a flower boat, and they were even better than the oiran.
"Yes, it's me!" Song Hua didn't expect that Meng Jingzhou would be among the people who rescued him. He heard that Meng Jingzhou had been missing for more than a year and had never been seen.
However, judging from the unhurried attitude of the Meng family, there is doubt about Meng Jingzhou's disappearance.
"Is he Meng Jingzhou, the eldest son of the Meng family?" Several people behind Song Hua exclaimed in low voices. They were from the Song family's side and had never seen Meng Jingzhou before.
"You have done so many bad things, yet you still meet enemies here?" Lu Yang was curious.
Meng Jingzhou rolled his eyes: "What an enemy, let me introduce you. This is Song Hua, the third young master of the Song family in the imperial capital. He is a few years older than me. I played with him a few times when we were in the imperial capital. I guess they come to the dense forest just like us.
It’s for experience, of course, it may also be for gold plating.”
"Nice to meet you, I am Lu Yang from Taoism."
"Taoist sect?!" Song Hua lost his voice, but quickly calmed down, cupped his fists and thanked, "It turns out he is a fellow Taoist sect, no wonder he has such skill."
So, if Meng Jingzhou has been missing for more than a year, is he going to practice Taoism?
That's okay, the Meng family is already a big scourge, and the Taoist sect is an even bigger scourge. Meng Jingzhou has a background in both places, how can he be so full of enemies in the future?
Meng Jingzhou frowned: "Why do I feel that you are thinking about something very rude?"
"Don't dare."
"The two of us are done." Not long after, Taoyaoye and Mangu both killed their respective monsters. Song Hua noticed that these two people were also in the late stage of foundation building. After killing the monsters, their clothes were not torn.
The four of them, Lu Yang and others, have been training in the dense forest for two months. During this period, they only went back to the Demon Suppression Pass three times. The rest of the time was spent training themselves in the dense forest.
Nowadays, ordinary late-stage Jindan monsters no longer pose a threat to them.
"Master Song, tell me, what outrageous thing did you do to make several Jindan stage monsters chase you?" Meng Jingzhou asked lazily.
Song Hua is not a barbarian. He has the blood of an ancient barbarian. He naturally attracts hatred and can only provoke one or two golden elixir stage monsters. How can he be chased by five monsters at the same time?
Song Hua and others smiled helplessly: "We really don't know what's going on. We just went deeper than usual. We wanted to kill a few more high-quality Golden Core-stage monsters so that we can explain it better when we go back."
"It's strange to say that there should be more golden elixir stage monsters deeper in the jungle. As a result, we walked for a long time without encountering them. When we encountered them, you also saw the situation. Five of them appeared directly, one of them
A bodyguard was even eaten alive."
"Thank you for your help, otherwise I might have been found dead in the dense forest today." Song Hua felt lucky for the rest of his life. After this disaster, he made up his mind to return to the Demon Town Pass and take a flying boat back to his family.
.
The harvest they gained from this trip was enough to return to the family for business, so there was no need to take any more risks.
Lu Yang and others looked at each other and realized that something unknown must have happened deeper in the forest.
