"Old Yang, Gao Yue has escaped into the snow forest. It seems we have no chance of obtaining that treasure. Should we inform Lord Lin about this?"
The two stopped their pursuit, and Niu Kaishan sighed and said.
Yang Guanglin shook his head and said:
Don't forget, we are Lord Li's men. If we hadn't informed Lord Li beforehand, you should know what would have happened to us.
Previously, Lord Li told us that if we discovered a second-grade spiritual item, we should inform him immediately, and afterwards, he would reward us with two Breakthrough Pills.
And what Gao Yue possessed was very likely a second-grade spiritual item; otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life to escape into the depths of the snow-capped mountains.
"That makes sense. So, who should inform Lord Li?"
Nodding, Niu Kaishan said.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared, and a small sword-shaped magical artifact shot towards Niu Kaishan's chest.
Niu Kaishan's expression changed, and he hurriedly retreated, but it was too late. A deep gash was immediately cut open on his chest, and blood splattered everywhere.
Niu Kaishan's face turned deathly pale. Enduring the excruciating pain, he roared angrily, saying:
Old Sheep, how dare you resort to such underhanded tactics! Do you know...?
ah!
Before Niu Kaishan could finish his angry words, Yang Guanglin attacked again, unleashing a powerful spell that slammed into his opponent's chest.
In an instant, a sandstorm spell, as if condensed into a sharp arrow, pierced through the wound in Niu Kaishan's chest and shattered his heart.
Bang!
Niu Kaishan collapsed and died.
"Brother Niu, please don't blame me."
If you and I each had one Breakthrough Pill, we could only cultivate to the early stage of the ninth level of Qi Refining at most.
However, if I could obtain two Breakthrough Pills from Lord Li, I would definitely be able to break through to the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining. At that time, I might even have a chance to become a Foundation Establishment Immortal Master.
Glancing at the corpse on the ground, Yang Guanglin muttered something under his breath, then waved his hand and cast a spell.
call!
A deep pit appeared on the ground, and he buried the body in it.
On the other side, in the snowy forest in the darkness, a person, panting heavily, ran wildly, turning his head several times to make sure no one was chasing him before stopping.
"Finally, we've shaken off the bull leader and the sheep leader."
With a low voice, Gao Yue leaned against a large tree, took a deep breath, and frowned, his heart filled with worry again.
My secret has been discovered.
If the bull and sheep leaders were to inform Lord Lin of this matter, they would be hunted down and severely punished, possibly even imprisoned in a dungeon.
Looking at the package in his hand, which contained five earthworm fruits, Gao Yue's eyes flickered, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope again.
"This kind of spiritual fruit can quickly help me break through my cultivation level."
As long as I hide well in the snow forest and am not caught in a short period of time, I can break through to the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining within fifteen days.
"Then we'll leave this dangerous place and wander the world."
With these thoughts in mind, Gao Yue slowly nodded, his gaze hardening.
This spiritual fruit was incredibly tempting to him, and he was truly reluctant to hand it over.
If he can break through to the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, he will have the opportunity to enter the Foundation Establishment stage, and his lifespan will be extended by at least 150 years.
However, his strength was still somewhat lacking, making it difficult for him to escape this snow-covered forest.
Therefore, he planned to hide in the snow forest, improve his strength, and then consider leaving quietly.
Then, worried that Niu Kaishan and Yang Guanglin would come after him, he chose a direction and headed into the depths of the snow forest.
After burying Niu Kaishan, Yang Guanglin quickly took out a communication array plate from his storage bag and sent a message:
"Lord Li, I, Yang Guanglin, while cultivating the spirit fields with Lin Xiaofei, inadvertently discovered a second-grade spirit item."
"A second-grade spiritual item? Where are you now? I'll be right there."
Immediately, Li Guanghui's voice came from the communication array.
...
On the edge of the cultivated spiritual field, next to a large tree.
Lin Xiaofei sat in front of a pile of firewood, roasting the flesh and blood of the red-eyed snow bear alone, when Jiang Xin ran over, bowed slightly, and said:
"I have something to report."
"What's up?"
Lin Xiaofei said it casually.
"Lord Lin, the five leaders you asked me to keep an eye on last time."
Two of them, Yang Guanglin and Niu Kaishan, had just returned here to rest with the others half an hour earlier. A short while later, they headed towards the snow-covered forest where they were cultivating the spiritual fields.
I thought they went to pee, but they didn't come back for half an hour.
Moreover, I just counted the number of people and found that one person is missing.
Jiang Xin said.
"One person is missing? The two leaders went towards the snow forest?"
Nodding, Lin Xiaofei frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss, and slowly said:
"Jiang, it's already dark. You said they're going to the snow forest? What are they going to do there?"
"My guess is that they're not going to cultivate spirit fields; perhaps they've discovered some treasure?"
Jiang Xin, standing to the side, hesitated for a moment before saying, "
"Lord Lin, should I gather everyone now and search for them? If we find those three hiding treasure, we should arrest them immediately?"
Lin Xiaofei shook his head and said calmly, "
I'll handle this personally. You can go and rest.
With that, Lin Xiaofei took a step forward, leaped into the air, and headed towards the snow forest where the spiritual fields were being cultivated.
In a snow-covered forest, Lin Xiaofei leaped swiftly across the branches and leaves, casting illusions with his eyes, turning the surrounding dark forest into daylight.
Soon, a figure could be seen in the distance, standing under a large tree, looking around as if waiting for someone.
"Why is there only one person?"
Lin Xiaofei, puzzled, continued his footsteps, treading on branches and leaves, without stopping. He leaped forward, landing behind Yang Guanglin, and coldly shouted, "
"Hey, leader of the sheep, what are you doing here?"
Immediately, Yang Guanglin's body trembled, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly turned around and hurriedly said:
"I have met Lord Lin."
"Sheep leader, you haven't answered my question yet."
Lin Xiaofei's gaze sharpened, and a powerful spiritual pressure erupted from his body, enveloping Yang Guanglin.
Although he didn't know why Yang Guanglin was there or what the other party wanted to do, he knew that this person was Li Guanghui's man and certainly wouldn't do anything good.
Yang Guanglin's body trembled violently as he was enveloped by an invisible spiritual pressure, as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
"Go easy on him."
Just then, a deep voice came from the darkness not far behind.
Immediately afterwards, two figures approached from afar, one after the other, leaping across branches and leaves to quickly get closer and land near Yang Guanglin.
