At this point, things have gone beyond just being a welfare task for the Second Detachment.
As pioneers who carry the torch, we must understand what happened here.
Xie Qingyun instructed Zhang Ze and Huang Ya to leave the Firewood Army's secret signals around the area.
And I made a record of the general situation.
"Hurry up and go take a look."
Xie Qingyun made a decisive decision, and everyone immediately abandoned the task of hunting down the strange beast.
They began heading towards the dense forest in Hubei.
Once inside the woods, it was already close to evening, and the light became even dimmer.
This dense forest is the lair of the centaurs.
It was here last time that we were attacked by centaur guards.
We went into the forest for more than ten kilometers, but still did not see any trace of centaurs.
Qin Xiao secretly manipulated the wood of the Jianmu tree, forming a temporary wooden armor on Bai Ling's chest, forehead, and neck.
Although we don't know the situation, it's still better to take some precautions.
He held Bai Ling in his arms and said, "Ling'er, if a fight breaks out later, don't grow bigger. Just find an opportunity to make your move. Don't worry about me."
Qin Xiao first spoke with Bai Ling.
To avoid Bai Ling becoming a target when she grows bigger, and then not being able to rescue her in time if there is any danger.
Qin Xiao was very confident in the Jianmu Escape Technique.
Moreover, there is a life cycle, so it's practically impossible to die if you want to.
The sounds of fighting came from ahead, along with the roars and howls of strange beasts.
The group quickened their pace. Ahead lay a clearing in the woods, surrounded by a scene of utter devastation.
One of them, a giant centaur standing three meters tall, was wielding a weapon.
There were also more than a dozen red wolf-like beasts attacking from all sides.
They kept hitting the centaur, and by now the centaur was covered in blood.
Three figures dressed in red hooded robes were also present nearby, providing support.
"It's the Blood Spirit Society!"
Upon seeing these figures, Zhang exclaimed in his earpiece.
At this moment, there was some commotion among the wolves.
One of the figures in the blood-red robes turned to look in their direction.
"Some little mice have come."
A hoarse voice came through.
Large numbers of blood-red, wolf-like beasts emerged from all around again.
When Xie Qingyun saw the man's clothes and appearance, she knew something serious had happened.
The Blood Spirit Society has always used the blood sacrifice of living beings to feed exotic beasts in exchange for contracts and cooperation.
After committing several horrific blood sacrifices, they were besieged and suppressed by the Huawu Kingdom from multiple directions.
The Blood Spirits retreated into the wilderness, using the numerous, uncontrolled dimensional realms scattered throughout the wilderness as their base, and began operating in the shadows.
This newly created dimensional secret realm must have another passage connecting it to this place.
If these people were to take control of this secret realm, they would definitely cause trouble through the northern exit of Qingzhou.
It's even possible that they'll launch a large-scale attack on Gyeongju.
"Everyone, retreat immediately! Take this message back!!"
Xie Qingyun shouted, her voice cracking slightly in her earpiece.
She controlled the Black Eagle and Shadow Cat to actively confront the Blood Wolf Beast.
There were no melodramatic or tearful scenes of reluctance or entanglement.
The remaining four, Huang Ya and Wang Yan, immediately flew backward and scattered in all directions.
This was already a pre-determined plan.
Qin Xiao took a deep breath; he did not choose to run away.
Instead, he hid in the back, controlling the roots of the Jianmu tree to help Xie Qingyun withstand the attacks.
If he leaves too, Xie Qingyun will surely die.
Although these blood wolf beasts are not of high rank, they are all between the eighth or ninth rank of bronze and the third or fifth rank of silver.
However, their advantage lies in their large numbers and excellent teamwork.
Like a pack of wolves hunting in the wilderness, they gradually compressed Xie Qingyun's living space.
Xie Qingyun also discovered Qin Xiao's secret intervention.
After all, those elusive and incredibly powerful roots are hard to ignore.
Apart from the three men in blood-red robes, there were no other outsiders present.
It was obvious that Qin Xiao was behind it.
As time went on, Qin Xiao found himself struggling to control the three roots.
Xie Qingyun's black cat, severely wounded by the wolves, has retreated into the shadows.
The Black Eagle, its wings broken, stumbled back to Xie Qingyun's side.
Fortunately, with Qin Xiao's help, Xie Qingyun was not seriously injured.
"Ten minutes have passed, retreat!" Xie Qingyun said decisively into her earpiece.
Qin Xiao used his roots to pierce another blood wolf.
He flipped over, mounted Bai Ling's back, and retreated in different directions from Xie Qingyun.
However, because Qin Xiao deliberately stayed late, most of the Blood Wolves came looking for him.
After circling the woods, Qin Xiao didn't intend to run away, but instead went back.
"Hey, the little bug is back again."
The figure in the blood-red robe in the middle looked at Qin Xiao riding Bai Ling and said something strange.
Qin Xiao ignored the blood wolves behind him and headed straight for the three of them.
When they were about thirty meters away, he opened the Root Void Passage and suddenly appeared behind the blood-robed figure.
The roots of the Jianmu tree immediately sprouted, and one tree was used to bind each person tightly.
Once bound by the roots of the Jianmu tree, it is almost impossible for someone of the same level to break free.
These roots, in addition to their formidable strength and flexibility, can also absorb the spiritual energy and mental power of those who are bound.
"Ling'er, kill these blood wolves!"
Qin Xiao casually gave the order.
If it weren't for the need to conceal one's strength and the difficulty in explaining oneself, one wouldn't have needed to escape just now.
Bai Ling's body grew larger, topped with Qin Xiao's wooden armor, and her enormous body swept across the room.
A dozen or so blood wolves were thrown out, and even silver-rank blood wolves couldn't stop them.
This is the dominance of the mythical beast template.
A bluish-white foxfire appeared, burning the blood wolves to ashes as if they were in a bone-deep flame.
Qin Xiao, on the other hand, controlled the roots to contract and burrow into the opponent's flesh.
As if taking root, it pierced and tore the three people apart, draining them dry with its roots.
Three silver-ranked blood-robed figures and more than ten blood wolves were utterly powerless to fight back.
Qin Xiao didn't even use his full strength.
After checking the surroundings, I confirmed that there were no other survivors.
He lifted the hood of the man in the blood-red robe and took a look.
They both have one nose and two eyes, so it's hard to tell the difference.
As for keeping prisoners alive to extract information...
Qin Xiao couldn't be bothered to care.
Now that everyone knows it's the Blood Spirit Society, what's the point of asking?
The rest is up to the Firefly Army to investigate.
After touching the corpse, Qin Xiao took out three spatial beads and probed them with his spiritual power; they were the smallest kind.
"Ma De Poor Ghost".
"I'll dig out some spirit crystals, Ling'er, you set fire to the corpse and burn it clean."
Qin Xiao instructed them to put the beads away and check them later.
"Yes, Master."
Bai Ling hopped gracefully through the trees, and when she saw Qin Xiao take out a spirit crystal, she released a ball of foxfire.
Qin Xiao quickly harvested all the spirit crystals from the blood wolf and then came to the giant centaur.
"Huh?"
The centaur was still alive, but he was too badly injured and lay on the ground, his blood staining the ground.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a centaur girl with long, brilliant golden hair and delicate, refined features.
He was over a meter tall with an explosive physique; the armor on his chest was swollen and bigger than Qin Xiao's head.
The horse was about two meters tall and three meters long.
He was wearing full-body armor, which was also torn apart by the blood wolves' claws and bites.
A series of muffled gasps, accompanied by astonishingly undulating throbbing.
The centaur girl opened her eyes shakily.
Her bright golden eyes, the same color as her hair, looked at Qin Xiao.
"Thank you for avenging my clan, but unfortunately I don't have long to live and will be unable to repay you..."
Huh? Qin Xiao was taken aback.
Key information captured, rewarded!
You saying this will make me feel less sleepy.
"Ling'er, treat her."
A white light flashed.
