Xu Xiwang continued cultivating tirelessly. After a quarter of an hour, the spiritual energy in his body was completely exhausted, leaving only some residual spiritual energy in his dantian!
"I'm alright now, thank you, Yueyao."
Xu Xiwang smiled at Su Yueyao.
I've been unconscious for two days?
Doesn't that mean we've already exceeded the time we agreed upon with Uncle Three?
Xu Xiwang couldn't help but feel worried.
Xu Xiwang looked around and saw that all around him was dense forest with no end in sight, and he had no idea where he was.
"Yueyao, do you know where we are right now?"
Xu Xiwang looked at Su Yueyao and asked.
"North of the city."
How far is it to the place where we first met?
"About forty kilometers,"
How far is it to where we met?
"It's about forty kilometers, and you have to cross half a forest to get there."
"So far?"
"After you were injured, I was afraid that the monsters nearby would eat you, so I had to take you to a more secluded place to hide. This place is indeed very far from where we started."
"Let's go, let's go there."
"Your body cannot support it."
"It's okay, look at me, I'm lively and energetic now. There are still people waiting for me there."
"girlfriend?"
Su Yueyao's words made Xu Xiwang's lips twitch slightly.
He thought of his kind third uncle, who appeared gentle and kind like a spring breeze, but what was he really like?
Turn around and dump yourself in this godforsaken place!
"We're just family. Let's go, I'll take you with me."
The two traveled through the city together, encountering many small monsters along the way, all of which were blasted to death by Su Yueyao with a single shot.
Xu Xiwang couldn't help but sigh that if he went out next time, he should bring some powerful equipment, at least a few rocket launchers, they looked really useful!
"You two, stop right there."
Inside the abandoned city, several servant-like figures rode up on giant unicorn wolves, glaring at the two with murderous intent.
Xu Xiwang frowned and looked at them, asking, "Who are you?"
"You two have enemy signals marked by our Mercenary City! A group of adventurers perished a couple of days ago; it was you two who did it, wasn't it!"
City of Mercenaries?
Upon hearing this name, Xu Xiwang couldn't help but frown.
Could it be one of the mercenaries' companions?
Xu Xiwang looked at them and said, "You've mistaken me for someone else! I'm just an ordinary adventurer, how could I possibly have anything to do with people from your Mercenary City!"
"The people of the Mercenary City have always been domineering. If anyone is marked or considered dangerous, they will kill them on the spot and then collect the bounty."
Su Yueyao said softly.
"Come with us."
Several mercenaries sneered, staring menacingly at Xu Xiwang.
Su Yueyao stood in front of Xu Xiwang, watching the mercenaries warily. To be honest, she was a little afraid, but she was even more unwilling to put Xu Xiwang in danger because of her.
Xu Xiwang looked at Su Yueyao and gently patted her back to reassure her.
He wanted to see what they dared to do to him.
"What do you want? If you dare to hurt him, I'll fight you to the death!"
Su Yueyao shielded Xu Xiwang and took a few steps back, glaring angrily at the man in front of her, looking as if she was determined to defend Xu Xiwang to the death.
"You'd better be sensible, or don't blame us for being impolite!"
At the mercenary leader's command, several horses pounced towards Su Yueyao.
Upon seeing this, Xu Xiwang conjured a long spear in his hand.
However, his body had not yet recovered, and the spear remained broken.
He punched a giant unicorn wolf away.
But when he turned around, he found that Su Yueyao had been captured by the mercenaries.
"Yueyao!"
Xu Xiwang was shocked and rushed over in a flash, thrusting his spear fiercely at the mercenary leader!
The mercenary leader was already on guard against Xu Xiwang. With a flick of his wrist, he drew a long sword from his waist to block Xu Xiwang's attack!
The spear and the longsword clashed together, producing a piercing, sharp sound!
Xu Xiwang paused slightly, the force coming from his hand was more than twice as strong as before!
Xu Xiwang gritted his teeth, pushed off with his feet, and leaped into the air, unleashing a powerful 'Ten Thousand Miles of Sky' strike aimed at the mercenary leader's neck!
He was incredibly fast, and the mercenary leader reacted just as quickly, immediately swinging his longsword to parry!
Two figures clashed in mid-air, creating a deafening roar that shook heaven and earth!
Xu Xiwang's gun skills were incredibly sharp, one move after another, incredibly fast, forcing the mercenary leader to retreat repeatedly.
"I don't want to mess with you, let her go!"
Xu Xiwang said as he launched the attack.
He was seriously injured, and if the fight continued like this, he feared he would lose. He didn't want to implicate innocent people.
"Release them? Weren't you all so arrogant just now? Why are you scared now?"
The mercenary leader scoffed mockingly, "Begging for mercy now? Too late! Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of those brothers! I'll show you what true power is!"
The mercenary leader brandished his longsword, and a white light shot towards Xu Xiwang!
Xu Xiwang dodged the white light with a flash, but the mercenary leader's longsword had already slashed across Su Yueyao's shoulder, and a bloody mark immediately appeared on her fair skin!
"Yueyao!"
Xu Xiwang felt a pang of heartache and immediately pushed the mercenary leader away with a palm strike!
Xu Xiwang picked up Su Yueyao and ran away quickly.
"Damn it, stop him!"
The mercenary leader's face turned ashen when he saw Xu Xiwang take Su Yueyao away!
Several mercenaries surrounded Xu Xiwang from all sides!
Xu Xiwang stopped and looked at the group of people in front of him, coldly saying, "I don't care if you're from a mercenary city or a mercenary group, just get out of my way now, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Heh, how laughable! A brat who hasn't even grown his first beard dares to be impolite to our Mercenary City?"
The mercenaries scoffed and said coldly.
"You're courting death! Chaos Without Limits!"
Xu Xiwang roared angrily, and the spear in his hand transformed into several afterimages, sweeping towards them one after another!
