While they were groping around in the mist, they all keenly sensed a chilling aura nearby that sent shivers down their spines.
Zaun was even prepared for battle, but unfortunately, the opponent never made a move, allowing them to successfully escape from the formation.
"I also sensed danger, but I don't know the extent of the opponent's strength." Yu Yanluo, after all, was the head of a clan and possessed the bloodline of Medusa, making her more sensitive than the other younger generation present.
“At least a Grandmaster,” Zuan said in a deep voice.
"Grandmaster?" Yu Yanluo was startled. She thought that with their strength, they could easily get here, but she never expected that there would be a Grandmaster here.
"Grandmasters are nothing special," Yun Jianyue said coldly. "Now that my injuries have healed a bit, coupled with Xiao Anzi's combat strength and the abilities of your Medusa clan, we are not without a fighting chance against a Grandmaster."
"What about me?" Yan Xuehen was speechless. The other party was deliberately ignoring her, which was clearly an insult.
Yun Jianyue smiled proudly: "You just need to be in charge of cheering us on from behind."
Yan Xuehen: "..."
That vixen is so annoying!
At this moment, Yun Jianyue spoke up again: "Originally, I didn't have high hopes for this so-called treasure, but now it seems there might really be something in here."
Whether it was the eerie misty forest or the powerful presence lurking in the shadows, everything about this place revealed its extraordinary nature.
At this moment, exclamations came from the other side, and a group of people rushed forward. It turned out that there was a big mountain in front of them, and they could feel the rich energy and vitality on it from a distance.
Various exotic flowers bloomed on the mountain, wafting out medicinal fragrances, and many unusual trees were laden with bright red, plump fruits, which were clearly not ordinary.
Even Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue were surprised, recognizing that some of the items on it were rare, even in Baiyujing and the Holy Sect.
The other demons went berserk, rushing towards that direction in a frenzy.
Boom! A golden fist slammed directly in front of everyone, kicking up a cloud of dust.
It turned out that the Lion Spirit had already blocked their way.
The expressions of many demon experts immediately turned ugly: "Lion Spirit, what do you mean by this? Do you intend to take it all for yourself?"
Although Lion Spirit was young, he stood there with his hands behind his back, his face full of arrogance: "It doesn't mean anything. It's just a rare treasure, and the capable should own it."
This incurred the wrath of the crowd: "What a joke! Does Lion Spirit think he is the Demon Emperor, capable of suppressing all heroes by himself?"
Lion Spirit replied, "Of course not. It's just that we went through so much trouble to get here, so what right do those who didn't contribute have to share the spoils?"
As he spoke, Princess Soren, Prince Silver Shark, Jin Shi, Princess Changning, Qiao Heng, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, Ma Huang, Duan Tiande and others stood silently by his side, clearly sharing the same thoughts.
They were the ones fighting head-on when they crossed the swamp, but a number of people took advantage of the opportunity to slip over, which annoyed them quite a bit.
Lion Spirit also said to Wu Liang, who was slumped on the ground, "Fatty, don't worry. You did a lot of work just now, so you'll get a share of the food later."
Of course, it wasn't out of kindness, but rather because this place was far too eerie, and the fat man's actions just now were terrifying, proving his worth. Perhaps he would need to use him again in the future, so naturally he wouldn't send him away at this time.
Wu Liang chuckled and naturally accepted the offer.
Yan Xuehen frowned and said, "We were fighting side by side just now, but they turned their backs on us as soon as we escaped danger. These demons are really cold-blooded."
Yun Jianyue, however, disagreed: "I admire their approach. Ice Stone Girl, you are of noble birth and have lived in a comfortable environment all these years. Everyone around you treats you like a fairy, so naturally you only encounter good people. Unfortunately, the cultivation world is inherently cruel. The law of the jungle is the way of heaven."
"There aren't many spiritual herbs here. With so many people sharing, there's not much left. If I hadn't been injured, I probably would have cleared everyone out immediately instead of leaving some people to share like he did."
Yu Yanlu stuck out her tongue. After being together for so long, all she remembered was her bickering with Yan Xuehen like little girls. She almost forgot that she was a great demon feared throughout the world.
Seeing these scions of noble families banding together, the other independent cultivators all changed color, realizing that they were no match for these guys when they joined forces, and their momentum immediately faltered.
Someone couldn't help but say, "If you send us back now, aren't you just sending us back to that misty forest to die?"
Lion Spirit said indifferently, "You can simply go around to the side. I don't think the forest is ridiculously large. As long as you don't go in and trigger the formation, it's not impossible to go back around to the side. Or you can wait here until we come back. When we do, we'll take you out alive because we're all demons."
The other rogue cultivators snorted. The situation was beyond their control; if a real conflict broke out, they might perish here before even seeing the treasure.
One by one, they stopped arguing with the lion spirit and all went around to leave.
They certainly wouldn't choose to stay put and wait for these scions of noble families to return; instead, they wanted to try their luck on other routes.
Soon the crowd dispersed, leaving only a dozen or so people behind.
Apart from the scions of noble families, the rest were their guards and servants.
Then Lion Spirit turned his gaze to Zu An and the others, and Yan Xuehen said coldly, "What, are we not qualified to stay either?"
