However, Qiao Suinian remained unmoved. Having learned from Lin Wanling's experience, he avoided any woman who took the initiative to approach him like the plague.
But in order to lower Pang Hongxin's guard, he pretended to enjoy it and put his arm around Anya's slender waist, which made the men around them envious.
They came to Mati Mountain risking their lives, while Qiao Suilai came to Mati Mountain to enjoy a life of luxury.
Pang Hongxin felt reassured when he saw Qiao Suifen start making unwanted advances towards Anya.
Don't underestimate the allure of women to men; otherwise, how could there be the saying, "When awake, one holds power over the world; when drunk, one rests on the lap of a beautiful woman"?
Supreme power and unparalleled beauty – this is almost every man's lifelong pursuit.
Of course, some men are more straightforward and only want beautiful women.
As long as Qiao Suinian is interested in women, Pang Hongxin is not afraid of not being able to control him.
The reason why ancient emperors preferred to use corrupt officials was because corrupt officials had desires, and people with desires are easier to control.
The mountain wind below the cliffs was chilly.
Pang Hongxin and his group continued upwards. After the incident with the mountain spring water, many other groups also chose to follow behind Pang Hongxin and his group.
"Everyone be careful, something's not right around here!"
Pang Hongxin seemed to sense something, gripping the iron fan tightly and scanning his surroundings warily.
Qiao Suinian naturally noticed that something was wrong; the surroundings were far too quiet.
Logically speaking, there should be no shortage of birds and insects on Horseshoe Mountain, but from the moment he heard it until now, he had not heard any birdsong or insect chirps.
In this situation, there is basically only one possibility: there is something extremely terrifying in the vicinity that makes insects and birds afraid to roost nearby.
But even if there were other races, they shouldn't be able to scare away birds and insects, since most other races are only interested in humans.
"No, could it be one of those things...?"
Qiao Suinian's expression suddenly changed as she recalled a terrifying possibility.
I hope I'm wrong; if it really is that kind of thing, then it'll be troublesome.
As they continued forward, the group discovered a stark white skeleton nearby—a human skeleton!
What's intentional is that this human skeleton has not a single piece of flesh or blood on it, as if it had been butchered by the most professional butcher, leaving only some bloodstains.
Pang Hongxin's eyes narrowed, and his expression turned serious.
As they continued forward, they encountered more and more skeletons, each one stripped of all flesh and blood, which only deepened the horror in everyone's hearts.
Just then, a series of clicking sounds suddenly rang out. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a large dark shadow sweeping towards them like the night sky.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that these were not shadows at all, but countless black ants, each about the size of a thumb!
