"Bastard!"
Ling Yan turned to look at Zhang Shaochuan, who had lost his head, and his eyes blazed with anger.
Being shot in the back was a very unpleasant experience.
Moreover, Ling Yan had kindly spared Zhang Shaochuan's life just moments ago.
But this guy was truly asking for death!
"Big Brother, your strength is already considerable, but you still lack experience in combat. Remember, you must be cautious, extremely cautious. If you can't even handle a character like this, your chances of facing Zǔ Shēn and fighting him will be almost nil!"
Ling Feng's voice emerged.
Ling Yan shuddered and quickly nodded at Ling Feng.
"Alright, I understand. Little Feng, this is the last time. There will absolutely not be a next time!"
Ling Yan's voice was filled with gritted teeth.
Ling Feng nodded. "I naturally believe you, Big Brother. In fact, even if the opponent had fired just now, you could certainly have dodged it. It's just that if you encountered a master, and their sneak attack methods were even more potent, it might not have been so easy!"
Ling Yan nodded repeatedly, his expression indeed very grim.
This kind of thing could only happen once. If it happened a second time, it could very well cost him his life!
However, for something that seemed simple, Ling Feng knew how many times it would take for Ling Yan to imprint it into his body and form a conditioned reflex!
As the group left,
The remaining bodyguards suddenly jolted awake.
"Damn, Young Master Zhang is dead!"
"Quick, quickly notify the boss!"
The men moved in a hurry.
By the time Zhang Shaochuan's father, Zhang Jinhua, arrived, Zhang Shaochuan's corpse had already gone cold!
Zhang Jinhua knelt before his son's body in grief, his eyes bloodshot and crimson.
"Bastards, who exactly are they? They didn't even leave my son with a complete body! Quickly, even if you have to turn Wolong Town upside down, find the culprits for me!"
"Yes!"
Instantly, the entire town became bustling.
It seemed as if scenes of chaos were everywhere.
Ling Feng and the other two followed their previous senses to the eastern boundary of the town, where numerous mountain villages were located.
The scenery was quite pleasing to the eye.
However, the person they were looking for remained unfound.
Instead, they detected that the tranquility of these mountain villages had been disrupted by a group of people.
Cars rushed in one after another.
Many people jumped out of the cars and were inquiring in the farmhouses about the whereabouts of Ling Feng and the other two.
Thus, Ling Feng and the other two's tracks were bound to be exposed!
"Bastards, it must be that kid from just now. I didn't expect his father's influence to be so great, that he'd dispatch people all the way here to find us!"
Ling Yan couldn't help but curse.
He was already feeling quite displeased.
The frustration from not finding the person, coupled with the arrival of these people, further fueled Ling Yan's temper!
Ling Feng naturally sensed his elder brother's anger.
But he reached out and stopped Ling Yan, then asked Ji Yunyue in a low voice, "Have you detected anything?"
"I've sensed it, it's on the mountain!"
Ji Yunyue opened her eyes and pointed to a hillside not far away.
There seemed to be some mist lingering above.
"My蛊 worms can't penetrate deep into it. It seems they've released something that restrains蛊 worms around here. Someone here also practices witchcraft!"
Ji Yunyue's pretty face grew even colder.
Ling Feng nodded slightly. "My蛊 worms can go deeper, but there's no need to investigate cautiously now. Let's go up directly. My people have already confirmed that the Gu Shen Cult's stronghold is up there!"
"Huh? You mean the Gu Shen Cult that the late Zhang Shaochuan mentioned?" Ling Yan's eyes lit up.
"Could it be that Zǔ Shēn has established some influence here?"
Ling Feng shrugged noncommittally. "If that's the case, it's only natural! Big Brother, don't worry, everything will be revealed once we get up there!"
"Alright!"
Ling Yan responded and was eager to ascend the mountain.
Ling Feng, however, stood up and waved his hand at the surroundings.
As figures one by one fell out from the roadside.
"These guys, they even have hidden sentries!"
Ling Yan's expression became even colder, wishing he could go up and kill them!
Ling Feng shook his head. "This further proves that the other party already knows we're here. It seems this is related to the Left Protector mentioned by that young nobleman earlier!"
"Let's go up the mountain, the target is moving!"
Ji Yunyue's expression suddenly changed, and her posture also became more eager.
When Ling Yan heard that the target above was moving, he became even more impatient.
With the three of them advancing at full speed, how could anyone around them keep up?
Those sent by Liu Jinhua to find people only saw three figures, and in the blink of an eye, they were gone.
After finally tracking them to this point, Ling Feng and the other two seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Of course, if they were brave enough, they might be able to catch up by going up the mountain.
However, the villagers here had made it very clear that there were many snakes, insects, and diseases on the mountain, and one could easily die if not careful.
Did they have the courage to go up?
Regardless of whether they had the courage or not.
Ling Feng and the others didn't care at all about shaking off their pursuers.
The group soon arrived around the bamboo forest halfway up the mountain.
Ji Yunyue suddenly stopped, looking at the circle of dead蛊 worms around her, and frowned. "Such poisonous methods, what are these?"
Saying that, Ji Yunyue reached out to pick up the powder on the ground to examine it!
Ling Feng, however, reached out and grabbed Ji Yunyue's small hand. "It's nothing good. If you get contaminated, it won't do your body any good!"
With that said, he led the two of them through the bamboo forest.
Soon, the group saw rows of bamboo houses.
They looked like ancient tribal architecture.
And as Ling Feng and the other two crossed the perimeter of the bamboo house settlement, large stones were hurled at them.
Clearly, they had triggered a mechanism!
Ling Feng had long sensed all of this, but how could these things hinder Ling Feng in the slightest?!
The power of the earth-armored dragon blood he had just fused with emerged.
Scales also appeared on his face, like faint, shimmering tattoos!
As the giant stones smashed down, they were unable to harm Ling Feng at all!
Ling Feng, like a cannonball, shattered all the giant stones!
Bang bang bang!
The sounds of explosion continued!
From the seemingly uninhabited bamboo houses, swarms of people suddenly jumped out!
These people watched as Ling Feng, leading the two beside him, charged forward like a descending war god, and their eyes all turned red!
"Kill!"
A group of people roared and charged forward.
They looked as if they had encountered mortal enemies!
Seeing this, Ling Feng frowned slightly.
He immediately brought the two beside him to a halt on the ground, his expression grim, and said coldly, "Stop!"
