In the pitch-black forest, a faint bonfire was dancing briskly, bringing a trace of warm light to the silent night.
A few people sat around the bonfire.
An Yufeng was leaning against a big tree. The branches in his hands stirred the bonfire in front of him from time to time. From the previous conversation, An Yufeng learned a little more about the three of them.
The three of them came from a city called Qingshan City, which was the closest city to the Li Sword Sect. Barbarian and Qing Hong were biological siblings. The two of them had been born as mercenaries for several generations and relied on hunting Xuan Beasts to support their families. As for Little Black, who had never spoken, it was not because he was cold, but because he was mute!
"Brother An, are you really not a sect disciple?”At this moment, Barbarian looked at An Yufeng and asked curiously.
Hearing Barbarian's words, Blackie and Qing Hong looked at An Yufeng. It had to be said that the scene of An Yufeng splitting the Two-Winged Snake in half with a single sword strike had truly shocked them. This kind of strength was definitely not something that an ordinary rogue cultivator or a disciple of a small aristocratic family could achieve.
Thinking of how they had asked An Yufeng to clean up the battlefield, the three of them felt their faces burn.
An Yufeng stopped the branch in his hand and looked at the three of them."Your former teammate Xiuyuan, what are you going to do if you meet him in the future?”
Hearing the name Xiuyuan, the expressions of the three of them turned ugly.
Qinghong snorted coldly, her face full of disdain.""This kind of person joined us with impure motives. I originally thought that he was just a little arrogant, but I didn't expect him to be so cowardly. He actually abandoned his teammates to survive.”
Looking at the angry Qing Hong, An Yufeng shook his head and smiled. It seemed that Xiu Yuan, who had escaped alone, had really made her angry.
Barbarian shook his head and sighed."Forget it. I won't interact with such a person in the future.”
"Forget it?" "Brother, if it wasn't for An Yufeng, the three of us would have been killed by the Two-Winged Snake," Qing Hong said angrily. How can we let this matter go?"
Blackie, who was standing at the side with a gloomy face, held the dagger in his hand and casually cut the air a few times. He was also using his own method to express his dissatisfaction with Xiuyuan.
Looking at the two angry people, Barbarian shook his head and sighed."How could I forget about it? Qinghong, you're right. If Brother An wasn't here, he would've killed us all. But you don't know that his brother is a general in Qingshan City. If we deal with him and word gets out, we won't be able to stand in Qingshan City.”
Hearing this, the two of them moved their lips, but in the end, they remained silent. The generals of Qingshan City needed at least Inborn experts. Inborn experts were not people they could resist.
After a moment of silence, Qinghong snorted and said,""We can't just let it go like this. When we return to Qingshan City, we'll spread the news that he abandoned his teammates and see who will let him join the guild in the future.”
Hearing this, Barbarian and Blackie both nodded. If they did not express anything, they would feel a little aggrieved. Just as Qinghong had said, as long as the news about Xiuyuan spread, Xiuyuan would definitely become a disgrace to the mercenary world in Qingshan City. After all, deserting and abandoning teammates were taboos in the mercenary world.
Is Qingshan City near Jiangbei City?" An Yufeng suddenly asked. The three of them were stunned. They didn't know why An Yufeng would ask such a question. Barbarian smiled and said,"Although we haven't been to Jiangbei City, it shouldn't be too far away, because we sometimes see mercenaries from Jiangbei City who come to Hundred-Thousand Mountains to hunt Xuan Beasts.”At this point, Barbarian looked at An Yufeng and said,"Could Brother An be from Jiangbei City?”
An Yufeng nodded and looked at the three of them thoughtfully.
An Yu and Feng Ye had no interest in talking, so the three of them tactfully stopped asking.
After a moment of silence, Barbarian seemed to feel that something was wrong. He got up and looked around. It was pitch-black and silent. He frowned and thought for a moment. Then he looked at the silent Blackie and said,"Xiao Hei, let's go and sprinkle some Beast King feces around. This is too... It's quiet. Something's wrong."
Hearing this, Blackie nodded and the two of them walked into the distance.
An Yufeng was thinking about something when Qing Hong suddenly sat beside him. She looked at An Yufeng and a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes. An Yufeng's face was slightly thin, and his facial features were delicate. Coupled with his flowing black hair, although he was not a handsome man, he was worthy of the audience. Of course, the most important thing was An Yufeng's strength. Although An Yufeng was only a seventh level cultivator, his strength could only be described as terrifying.
She had a good impression of An Yufeng because he didn't look at her with the same aggressive gaze as the others, so she had taken care of him along the way. However, when she saw An Yufeng standing in front of her like a god of war and splitting the Two-Winged Snake in half with his sword, she knew that at that moment, she had a strange feeling about this young man.
In the Southern Mountain Range, powerhouses were always attractive.
Feeling the beautiful woman's gaze, An Yufeng turned to Qing Hong and said,""What? Is there a flower on my face?"
Qing Hong quickly looked away, her face slightly red. Fortunately, it was night, so no one could see clearly. After a moment of silence, Qing Hong looked at An Yufeng and said,"Little brother, you're so strong. Why didn't you resist when we asked you to clean up the battlefield and Xiuyuan mocked you time and time again?”
Hearing this, An Yufeng smiled and said,""It's better to keep a low profile. It's fine if you're super powerful, but there are at least countless people in the Hundred Thousand Mountains who are stronger than me. If I keep a high profile, I'll really be courting death.”A year of living as a servant disciple had made him understand many things. If a person did not have much strength and was high-profile, that was really courting death. Just like that Steward Xiao and Xiao Yun. If the two of them had kept a low profile in Xiao Mountain Peak, they probably would not have ended up like that.
Qing Hong's eyes flashed with surprise. She had seen many geniuses in her years as a mercenary, and those geniuses with strength were basically arrogant, afraid that others did not know their strength. However, this young man in front of him did not have the arrogance of those genius disciples at all. Moreover, he knew how to keep a low profile.
This temperament and maturity really surprised her.
After chatting for a while, everyone went to bed except for Barbarian. Although there were Beast King feces around them, Barbarian and the other two did not dare to be careless at all, so they took turns to defend.
It was late at night, and the forest was pitch black. The bonfire in front of An Yufeng was like a ghost fire in the quiet and dark forest, looking a little gloomy and terrifying.
"Hiss!"
Suddenly, in the originally quiet forest, there was a hissing sound. At first, there were only a few, but after a moment, there were hundreds of hissing sounds. After a moment, it was as if the entire forest was filled with hissing sounds!
An Yufeng and the others woke up when the first hissing sound came. Just as An Yufeng was about to stand up, Qing Hong, who was beside him, placed her hands on his and shook her head gently.
Seeing Qing Hong's solemn expression, An Yufeng looked at Barbarian and Blackie, who were also solemn. Seeing them shake their heads at him, An Yufeng knew that he couldn't move. He nodded slightly and sat down to observe the situation.
For a moment, the four of them were like statues.
The hissing sound did not stop. On the contrary, it was getting more and more. With the help of the weak fire, they could see that things were squirming around them. Fortunately, there was the Beast King's feces. Those squirming things did not crawl towards them. Instead, they squirmed around the Beast King's feces.
Looking at those squirming things, An Yufeng and the others felt their scalps go numb. Those lumps were of course snakes. If there were dozens of them, they wouldn't be afraid at all. But now, there were at least tens of thousands of snakes around. There were also some huge pythons.
An Yufeng wanted to ask the beauty beside him what was going on, but he didn't dare to ask. He was afraid that if he asked, those snakes would rush over without any scruples. Although he was not weak, if he was surrounded by these snakes at night, even he would die.
He didn't know how many snakes there were in the Myriad Snakes Forest, but he was sure that there would be a lot of them. When he thought of how many snakes were surrounding him, An Yufeng felt his scalp go numb.
It wasn't just An Yufeng who didn't understand what was going on. Even Barbarian and the others didn't understand what was going on. They had rested in the 10,000 Snakes Forest countless times in the past, but they had never encountered such a situation. Therefore, Barbarian and the other two were both afraid and confused.
More and more snakes appeared around them, and they surrounded them continuously. The snakes suppressed the snakes, and they were piled up one after another. The scene made Barbarian and the others feel like their hearts were about to break. Fortunately, those snakes did not dare to break through the area of the beast king's feces. Otherwise, they would definitely be dead.
Qing Hong's hand held An Yufeng's hand tightly, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat. In the end, she closed her eyes, but the countless hissing sounds still made her afraid. Then, she turned her fear into strength and rubbed An Yufeng's hand with her jade-like hands.
Even An Yufeng, who was covered in copper skin, felt the pain. He turned to look at Qing Hong and saw that her eyes were closed, her face was pale, and her body was trembling slightly. He then turned to look at Barbarian and Blackie and found that both of them were in the same state. An Yufeng frowned. He knew that if this continued, they would definitely go crazy from the pressure of the atmosphere. It was fine if they didn't move now, but once they moved, the snakes around them would definitely not have any scruples and surge towards them like a tide.
At that time, they would really be unable to escape!
"Calm down, calm down!"
An Yufeng forced himself to calm down when he thought of the scene of being besieged by ten thousand snakes. He knew that this situation had never happened before. Otherwise, they would not be resting in the Ten Thousand Snakes Forest. It had never happened before, but now it had happened. It should be that they had provoked these snakes.
"Provoke these snakes?"
Thinking of this, An Yufeng frowned and tried hard to think.
"Shua Shua."
At this moment, the snakes no longer cared about the beast king's feces. They rushed towards An Yufeng and the others in waves.
