"Phew, should we go?" Lin Xuan said to Jue Hen after moving around on the spot.
"Why are you panicking? Can't you see that I haven't finished eating yet?”At this moment, Jue Hen was holding a rabbit leg in each of his hands. He was gnawing on it with one hand and the other with the other. His mouth was full of oil, and he looked as ugly as he could be. It was precisely because he saw Jue Hen's dirty eating that Lin Xuan ended his lunch 'sweep' early.
" As expected of a hungry ghost that ran out of the deep mountains," Lin Xuan muttered softly with his head lowered.
"What did you say?" Jue Hen, who was eating with relish, suddenly turned his head and looked at Lin Xuan fiercely as if he heard Lin Xuan's words.
" Oh, haha, it's nothing. Continue." Seeing Jue Hen suddenly speak, Lin Xuan hurriedly waved his hand and smiled awkwardly. So the ears of hungry ghosts are so sensitive, Lin Xuan thought. However, he seemed to have come from the deep mountains.
It was already noon, and the bright sunlight shone on the Great Haze Forest. The warm atmosphere made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
"Alright, let's go." Jue Hen wiped the stain from the corner of his mouth and threw the bone in his hand into the distance. He slowly stood up and said to Lin Xuan who was lying on the tree.
"Tsk, so slow." Lin Xuan pulled the bag in his hand and jumped down from the tree unhurriedly. His elegant long hair fluttered with the downward pressure, appearing especially dazzling under the sunlight.
"Kid, you really have a lot of nonsense now. Follow me.”Jue Hen scratched his ears and said indifferently. Then, he walked into the distance alone.
"Depressed…" Looking at Jue Hen's back, Lin Xuan smiled bitterly and followed him slowly.
The two of them walked for half a day in the forest and finally saw the end. Along the way, they killed some low-tier exotic beasts and fished out some energy crystals. When the time came, they could sell them for a good price. Energy crystals were the source of energy in the bodies of exotic beasts, and it was the same principle as the original Essence Core.
"This forest is really big. It is simply a maze…" The two of them had already arrived at the periphery of the Great Haze Forest. It was already close to evening. Looking at the weeds and trees on both sides, Lin Xuan said with some dissatisfaction. Looking at Jue Hen, who had been silent all along, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.
"Uncle, where do you plan to go when you're outside?”Seeing that they were about to walk out of the forest, Lin Xuan still asked the question he wanted to know the most.
Jue Hen turned his head and glanced at Lin Xuan indifferently,""You'll understand when the time comes. It's better to settle the matters in front first.”After saying that, he didn't say anything else.
"What happened before?" Hearing Jue Hen's inexplicable words, Lin Xuan's perception could not help but probe into the distance. There was actually someone.
Outside the Great Haze Forest.
"Motherf * cker, he actually asked us to stand guard here every day. How aggrieved!”On the small path leading to the Heavenly Imperial City, there were 7.8 people standing in all directions. Each of them was holding a large bottle of wine and drinking there. Each of them was red in the face, and their mouths were venting their extreme dissatisfaction.
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with a stocky build. He had a cocktail hairstyle, and his face was filled with anger. He drank large mouthfuls of wine, and his face was so red that it seemed to be dyed red. His rough voice came out of his mouth, bringing with it a mouthful of dirty saliva.
"What can we do? People like us who have a low status in the group can only do this kind of thing.”A skinny man who was leaning against the bushes said fiercely. His words were filled with anger, and his small eyes revealed traces of haze. However, he was drinking wine in small mouthfuls.
"Reid, Ka Ba, both of you should speak less. This is an order from the higher-ups. It is our honor to be able to stay in this mercenary group.”Another man who looked extremely steady said. His voice was quite low. From the aura that he vaguely emitted, one could tell that this person was not weak.
Hearing the man's words, the others immediately fell silent and drank their wine.
"Eh, there's someone up ahead!" The steady man suddenly frowned and looked up into the forest.
When the others heard the man's words, they put down their wine bottles one by one and hurriedly stood up from the ground. "Haha, after guarding for so long, we finally found a prey.”The man named Reid was full of excitement. His clenched fists made cracking sounds. The others were also eager to try.
"Let's go!" The steady man seemed a little flustered and hurriedly said to the others.
"Leave? What are you talking about? We've been waiting here for so long. It's not easy for us to report our mission, and you're asking us to leave now?”The short-haired man at the side clearly did not like him and said sharply.
"That's right. Let me tell you, Xin Yue, don't think that you can order us around just because you're a squad leader!”The group of people had obviously been dissatisfied with the steady man. Seeing someone take the lead, the others also said unhappily.
"Then you can do whatever you want…" Xin Yue shook his head and said indifferently. He was planning to leave.
"Everyone, don't leave." The figures gradually walked out of the forest. It was a white-haired youth and a tall man. The two of them looked ordinary, but the murderous aura emitted from their bodies made people feel at ease. Especially the man who spoke. The murderous aura from his entire body seemed to be unconcealable, causing the surrounding air to become a little cold. It was Jue Hen and Lin Xuan who had walked out of the forest.
When the group of people saw the imposing manner of the two of them, they were momentarily afraid. However, the dissatisfaction and accumulated anger in their stomachs had long gone to their heads, and they did not consider anything else at all. Only Xin Yue frowned, but he had no intention of leaving.
"The two of you, hand over everything you have and follow us obediently.”Reid snorted heavily and walked out with a fierce expression. His footsteps swayed slightly as he came in front of Lin Xuan and shouted.
Smelling the strong alcohol smell on the other party, Lin Xuan frowned, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. From the aura on the other party's body, he could tell that this group of people were inheritors, but they were all useless people.
"Didn't you two hear me? And you, white-haired brat, what are you looking at!”Reid's fist landed on the tree next to him, and a shallow fist mark instantly appeared. He shouted at Lin Xuan with his rough throat, and his saliva splattered everywhere, landing on Lin Xuan's face.
"Bang!"
"What the f * ck are you doing? Learn some manners before you talk to me.”Lin Xuan pulled Reed up with one hand. The arm wrapped in cloth was extremely powerful, and it was not difficult for him to pull the man who was much stronger than him.
" You brat!" Reid's feet left the ground, and his nasal voice was heavy. The difficulty of breathing made his already red face even more unbearable. His hands desperately wanted to push Lin Xuan's hands away, but he couldn't.
When the surrounding people saw this scene, their minds immediately cleared up. No matter what, Reid was still a Tier 4 Inheritor, yet he was lifted up by a young man with one hand. Moreover, it seemed like Reid had no way of resisting at all. Some people shook their heads, and their footsteps immediately retreated.
"These two friends, he just wanted to joke with you on a whim. Please show mercy.”At this moment, Xin Yue walked out and said to Jue Hen and the other man with a smile on his face, but his heart was also in a mess.
"Who are you?" Jue Hen said indifferently, ignoring the other party's answer.
"Hmph, we are from the Scarlet Mercenary Group. I advise you not to go against us.”The skinny man Ka Ba said anxiously. He wasn't stupid. He knew that these two weren't to be trifled with just by looking at their emotions. Compared to wealth and status, life was more important. He understood this very well.
"Scarlet Mercenary Group?" Jue Hen looked at Ka Ba and asked in confusion. Lin Xuan had already put Reid down. At this time, he didn't dare to be as arrogant as before. He glared at Lin Xuan and ran away resentfully.
"That's right, we are a branch of the Sage Emperor's Palace!”Seeing Jue Hen's surprise, Ka Ba smiled proudly and said.
" Sage Emperor's Palace?!" The Sage Emperor's Palace was a name that he had not heard for an unknown period of time. To Lin Xuan, it was definitely a taboo in his heart. It was a synonym for causing him to suffer incomparable humiliation. Half of the motivation for him to obtain strength came from this place. It was to return the humiliation he had suffered back then to them.
"That's right, haha." Seeing the other party's shocked expression, the group of people who were originally a little timid became active again. Other than Xin Yue, everyone looked at Lin Xuan arrogantly.
"Good, very good." Lin Xuan revealed a playful smile and turned to look at Jue Hen with a questioning gaze. The latter nodded and pointed at the back of his head.
After receiving Jue Hen's reply, the trace of hesitation in Lin Xuan's heart disappeared.
"Whoosh!"
The energy in his body spread throughout his entire body, and a powerful force surged.
"What are you doing!" Seeing Lin Xuan's sudden change, the powerful energy fluctuation made them stunned. A trace of fear flashed in the sharp-mouthed Ka Ba's eyes as he asked tongue-tied.
"What are you doing? You won't have the chance to know anymore." Without waiting for the other party to react, Lin Xuan's figure instantly appeared in the middle of the few of them. A gust of wind blew, and Lin Xuan's fists were like lightning, carrying a powerful force as they smashed into everyone's bodies.
"Bang." "Bang." Bang!
Every collision would bring about miserable howls, forming a rhythmic symphony in the forest.
Not long after, other than Xin Yue, who was standing at the side, everyone else was hit in the back of the head by Lin Xuan. They were all foaming at the mouth and only fainted. However, when they woke up, they would also become idiots. This wasn't to say that Lin Xuan was abnormal. If Ka Ba and the others had reacted earlier, they wouldn't have been defeated so easily by Lin Xuan.
He looked at Xin Yue with his cold eyes and found that Xin Yue was not surprised at all. He stood there quietly as if he was watching a monkey show. Aren't you afraid of revenge?" Xin Yue said, his tone still calm.
"Revenge? Sorry, this word is not suitable for me.”Looking at the man in front of him, a trace of seriousness flashed across Lin Xuan's eyes. He was not simple. From the aura that the man was faintly emitting, Lin Xuan could determine that the other party's strength was definitely not too weak.
"Brat, let's end this quickly." A hoarse voice entered Lin Xuan's ears. It was Jue Hen who had transmitted his voice to him. He nodded and slowly walked to Xin Yue.
"In that case, I have nothing to say. However, please don't compare me to those people just now.”Xin Yue squinted at Jue Hen who was sitting on the ground and said coldly to Lin Xuan. A light blue aura gushed out from his body, and the ancient character 'Six' was printed on his forehead. His eyes were flashing green, and he was a Type 6 Inheritor of the Wind Element. A powerful aura surged from his body.
"Don't be so wishy-washy." With a loud shout, Lin Xuan's energy and aura suddenly rose. He took another step and arrived in front of Xin Yue. A powerful punch landed ruthlessly.
"Bang!"
