As the sun sets, a team is walking in the middle of a not-so-wide road. The wheels of the car make a creaking sound as they pass over the stones on the road, but this cannot hide the joy on everyone's faces.
"Uncle Lu, I didn't expect the herbs dug in the village to sell so well this time."
The young man pinched the bulging purse at his waist and said with delight.
"yes."
On the side, Lu Meng also smiled and nodded.
His Lujia Village usually dug some medicinal herbs in the mountains and then transported them to Yunmeng City for sale. They usually made three or four deliveries a year. However, the speed at which the herbs sold this time was indeed a little beyond his expectations.
The herbs that would have originally taken at least three or four days to display were successfully sold out in just one day. Faced with this situation, everyone was naturally delighted, because it meant they could return to the village earlier.
What made Lu Meng feel pity was that this time when he left the city, he did not see the family with the huge blue wolf beast, otherwise he could have followed them again.
But Lu Meng didn't care too much. After selling the goods, the team moved much faster and it wouldn't take too long to return to the village. They probably weren't so unlucky as to encounter the ferocious beast on the way back.
Seeing that it was getting dark soon, Lu Meng, like before, asked the other members of the team to set up camp and prepare to rest.
There were only a small number of warriors in the team, and with so many horses, it was not convenient to travel at night.
When others started to set up camp, Lu Meng began to walk around the camp, preparing to check the safety of the camp.
"Um?"
The unusual movement in the bushes not far away quickly caught Lu Meng's attention.
Seeing the constant movement in the bushes, Lu Meng's calm mind was slowly lifted up, a hint of solemnity appeared in his eyes, and then he slowly approached the bushes in front.
When he was only half a meter away from the bushes, Lu Meng suddenly pushed away the obstacles in front of him. What he saw made Lu Meng feel relieved.
It turned out that there were only two small black gold beasts in the grass doing what they loved to do.
After being noticed by Lu Meng, the two black gold beasts fled away in a hurry.
Just as Lu Meng felt relieved and was about to check other places, he suddenly heard a shrill scream in his ears.
"ah!"
Lu Meng immediately turned his head and saw a ferocious beast about ten feet tall, covered with hard scales and with sharp horns on its head, coming out from nowhere. At this moment, the beast was holding a villager in its mouth.
“Crack.”
As the beast exerted force, a crisp sound came from its mouth.
After easily killing one person, the beast casually threw the villager in its mouth aside and turned towards the other villagers who were fleeing in all directions.
"Lu Shan!"
Lu Meng's eyes were red as he watched this scene, because the person who died was the younger generation he had watched grow up.
This ferocious beast had a powerful aura, and it seemed that it had already reached the innate realm. However, seeing his companion die in its mouth, Lu Meng rushed forward without hesitation.
Because he knew that if he escaped, no one present would be spared.
Following Lu Meng's move, several villagers in the Body Tempering Realm quickly stood up among the fleeing villagers, and tried to stop the rampaging beast in front of them.
The two sides were fighting in a group, but the beasts in the innate realm had strong blood and energy, and the beast in front of them was even bigger. A light slap or a bite from its claws with nails would kill a villager tragically.
Even the few Body Tempering Realm warriors who stepped forward to stop him did not last a single round before being seriously injured.
In just a few breaths, the team suffered heavy losses. Even Lu Meng, who was in the middle stage of the Blood Coagulation Realm, was knocked away by the beast after two rounds of fighting.
Watching the ferocious beast slaughtering the villagers wantonly, Lu Meng roared and rushed forward again, but it was still in vain. His attack couldn't even hurt the ferocious beast in front of him.
Seeing several more villagers die tragically, Lu Meng cursed:
"You damned beast!"
"Come towards me!"
Lu Meng's curse quickly attracted the attention of the beast. There seemed to be a hint of anger in the beast's eyes. It stopped attacking other villagers and instead pounced towards Lu Meng.
Lu Meng felt cold all over as he was stared at by the beast, but he had no way out at this moment, so he could only shout to the others:
“Run!”
Before he could finish his words, the ferocious beast in front of him pounced towards him. Lu Meng hurriedly dodged, but he still felt a sharp pain in his waist.
Before Lu Meng could turn his head, another strong wind blew from behind him. The rich energy and blood even made Lu Meng smell the scent of death.
But years of wandering experience made Lu Meng lower his head decisively. The moment Lu Meng lowered his head, a chill came over his scalp, and countless strands of hair were destroyed by his blood and qi.
If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would probably have been beheaded by now.
But even though he dodged this fatal blow, Lu Meng's face was still pale.
Even if it was a ferocious beast in the middle stage of the Blood Coagulation Realm, he didn't dare to say that he could win, let alone the ferocious beast in front of him was in the Innate Realm!
Is he going to die like this? If he dies, will the other villagers be able to escape the clutches of this vicious beast?
If they had known this earlier, they should have waited for two more days before setting off, and perhaps they would not have encountered this ferocious beast at that time.
Lu Meng felt regretful, but it was too late.
Just as Lu Meng was about to fight to the death to save some time for other villagers to escape, the ferocious beast in front of him suddenly became quiet and looked into the distance.
Seeing this, Lu Meng turned his head and looked. He saw a dozen tall green wolves leaping in the mountains in the distance. Above the bodies of the green wolves, there were also shadows.
“It’s them!”
A glimmer of hope appeared in Lu Meng's eyes, and he shouted loudly, trying to attract the attention of Chen Tianyu and his group.
But the blue wolves were too fast. Before the shout reached them, the dozen or so blue wolves had disappeared from sight.
Watching those green wolves leave without looking back, obviously they didn't hear his voice just now, nor did they notice the situation here, which made Lu Meng's already gray face even more desperate.
Seeing the green wolves leave, the ferocious beast once again turned its gaze towards Lu Meng in front of it.
"This beast!"
Lu Meng cursed again, just because the ferocious beast in front of him was so smart. If it had taken action just now, it might have been noticed, but this beast seemed to have noticed it long ago. When the green wolves passed by, it actually restrained its own energy and blood.
Is this the vicious beast in the innate realm?
Damn it!
Lu Meng's curse made the beast in front of him look unfriendly, and it pounced towards Lu Meng again.
How could Lu Meng, who was already injured, withstand the attack of the ferocious beast in front of him? He could only silently accumulate energy and blood, preparing to deliver a final blow before he died, adding another scar to the beast.
