The route that Xiao Jie was leading was precisely the place from which that mysterious aura emanated.
"Elder Hu, hurry, Chen Xuanfeng and the others are just ahead."
Xiao Jie led the way, constantly turning back to greet Hu Qingniu and the others.
Hu Qingniu also noticed that something was wrong with Xiao Jie and whispered to Ye Feng.
"Young Valley Master, Xiao Jie wasn't like this before. I feel like something's off about him today."
Ye Feng said.
"Looks like you're not entirely useless."
Hu Qingniu, "..."
Soon, led by Xiao Jie, the group arrived at a forest deep in Ghost Valley.
This is an ancient primeval forest.
The tall trees, with their lush branches, intertwined with each other, almost completely blocked out the sky above.
The dappled sunlight fell in scattered spots.
The forest was shrouded in a thick layer of poisonous miasma, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of leaves.
Over the years, it has emitted a musty smell.
The woods were quiet; there wasn't a soul in sight.
Hu Qingniu looked around warily and deliberately asked Xiao Jie, who was standing next to him.
"Xiao Jie, where are Chen Xuanfeng and the others?"
There was no movement behind him.
"Xiao Jie..."
Hu Qingniu turned around and was immediately taken aback.
Xiao Jie, who was just standing behind him, mysteriously disappeared, as if he had never existed.
"not good!"
Hu Qingniu's expression changed, and he instantly realized something was wrong, so he stood in front of Ye Feng.
Whoosh whoosh!
Suddenly, a dense volley of arrows shot out from the depths of the forest, heading straight for their group.
"Everyone be careful."
"court death!"
Ye Feng snorted coldly and flicked his sleeve.
A gust of wind rose up, forming a wall of air that instantly enveloped the cold arrows and flung them back.
Suddenly, a series of screams echoed from the depths of the dense forest.
"Ah ah..."
People kept falling from the trees.
These were the people who had previously hidden in the tree, intending to secretly kill them.
Judging from their clothing, one can tell that they are all disciples of Guigu.
Of course, they have all now chosen to betray Guigu.
Ye Feng never shows mercy to traitors.
"Get out here!"
Ye Feng stared intently at the deepest part of the forest and shouted angrily.
The poisonous miasma was most concentrated in that direction, and even with Ye Feng's Purple Heaven Divine Eye activated, it was difficult for him to see the scene clearly inside.
It seemed as if there was an invisible barrier inside, isolating it from the outside world.
The mysterious aura that Ye Feng sensed just now came from that direction.
Soon, shadowy figures could be seen emerging from within the poisonous miasma, with people constantly walking out of it.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion and a slightly overweight build, with a sinister smile on his lips.
Upon seeing him, Hu Qingniu's eyes instantly blazed with fury.
“Young Valley Master, look, that sallow-faced fellow is Chen Xuanfeng, the former Vice Valley Master. He colluded with Che Haohan, the chief physician of South Korea, to seize control of our Ghost Valley.”
"They also killed many of our elderly people and secretly sold the elixirs of Guigu to South Korea."
"This man is a sinner from Guigu, guilty of heinous crimes!"
Behind Hu Qingniu, a group of old men from Guigu Valley glared at Chen Xuanfeng across from them with hateful eyes.
Chen Xuanfeng looked at Hu Qingniu with disdain, then glanced at Ye Feng, raising his eyebrows and smiling.
"Hu Qingniu, you guys managed to escape last time. If I were you, I should have found a secluded corner and hidden away."
"What, you think you're scared of me just because you've brought in reinforcements?"
Hu Qingniu said angrily.
"Chen Xuanfeng, stop being so rude. This is the young master of the valley."
"Why don't you hurry up and step forward to pay your respects?"
Chen Xuanfeng burst into laughter, looking at Ye Feng with disdain.
"Ye Feng, right? I've heard of you. Don't think you're something special just because you've made a name for yourself in the secular world."
"This is Ghost Valley, not a place for you to run wild."
"To tell you the truth, I knew you were coming, so I made preparations in advance."
"Today, none of you are leaving."
After saying that, Chen Xuanfeng clapped his hands and stepped aside to make way for Chen Xuanfeng.
Soon, another figure flashed out from behind him.
It was Yu Canghai, the former sect leader of Qingyun Sect, and several other elders from within the sect, each of whom exuded an aura at the peak of the Martial Soul realm.
One of them had already stepped into the level of a Martial Saint.
Yu Canghai looked at Ye Feng with a cold smile.
"Ye Feng, I am the former sect leader of Qingyun Sect. Your senior sister killed my sect leader Cang Xuanzi, and you also killed He Longyu, the prodigy of my sect."
"I've wanted to settle this score with you for a long time."
"Hmph, are you ready to die?"
Ye Feng said with a sneer.
"From this day forward, there will be no more Qingyun Sect in this world."
Ye Feng was too lazy to waste words on such trash.
"What arrogance!"
Two elders rushed out from beside Yu Canghai, one a peak eighth-grade Martial Soul cultivator and the other a peak ninth-grade Martial Soul cultivator.
The two sides joined forces and launched a fierce attack on Ye Feng.
"court death!"
Ye Feng slapped the two men into a bloody mist, as if he were swatting two ants.
The earth suddenly trembled.
A huge handprint was left on the spot, and a violent shockwave swept outwards.
The surrounding trees were snapped in half by the shock, and dust billowed into the air.
