Long Yi led the two of them towards the northwest corner. They did not walk fast because they were worried that accidents might happen at any time in the unknown environment.
At the same time, a group of people in a hidden place in the northwest corner were staring at Long Yi through binoculars.
The leader was Kaili, who had just escaped from the mouth of a young gold-eating beast. His back and buttocks were covered in blood, and he was lying on a stretcher with a painful expression.
If he hadn't happened to meet the people sent by the higher-ups, he would never have been able to leave Guilan Valley with such a strong smell of blood on him.
It turned out that to be on the safe side, Kerry informed the Rockefeller family that the diamond mine had been emptied when he set out for Ghost Valley.
The Rockefeller family, ranked third among the Western Region's tycoons, is a secret society originating from Eagle Country. It controls underground gray industries such as gambling, pornography, and arms smuggling in the Western Region.
In recent years, the Rockefeller family has also extended its reach into the territory of Longguo. The diamond mine under Kaili's name is one of the Rockefeller family's industries.
The Rockefeller family was known for their vengeance, and upon hearing that their diamond mine had been looted, they immediately sent their experts stationed in the capital to provide support. Kaili had arranged for them to be stationed next to the spiritual crystal production area in advance.
"Kaili, I never thought a brat could mess up your desk like this. How can you expect the higher-ups to use you again?"
The person who spoke was a tall and strong white man with a blond crew cut. The blue dragon tattoo on his back extended to his arms and neck, looking very scary.
In terms of aura alone, he looks countless times stronger than a playboy like Kyrie.
This person is Herbert, the gold medal fighter of the Rockefeller family in the town of Jingcheng, nicknamed the Nine-Patterned Dragon because of the tattoos on his body.
Kaili's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he said unwillingly, "I've never heard of this kid's methods before. They're very strange, so I... miscalculated."
Jiu Wenlong said disdainfully: "Strange methods? The martial arts of the Dragon people are all garbage. What's there to be afraid of such superficial martial arts?
I just saw Long Yi through the telescope. This guy's physical strength is far inferior to mine. When he gets here, this Ghost Orchid Valley will be his burial place!"
After Jiu Wenlong finished speaking, his muscles bulged, and a pair of sharp claws made of fine steel appeared out of thin air on the back of his hands. They looked like Wolverine, very fierce!
A hint of gloom flashed in Kaili's eyes. In his opinion, the reason why he was in such a miserable situation was entirely due to Long Yi.
After Jiuwenlong kills Long Yi, he will not only be able to take Long Yi's storage space for himself, but also be able to enjoy the beauty like Ling Bingqian.
In addition to Jiuwenlong and Kaili, there were more than a dozen fully armed mercenaries equipped with heavy firearms in the haystack.
Ten minutes later, Long Yi and the other two arrived at the northwest corner of Guilan Valley.
Ling Bingqian surveyed the surroundings, feeling a faint sense of unease. "Shouldn't this be the source of high-grade spirit crystals? Why is it so peaceful, without even a single ferocious beast guarding it?"
Qin Feng also frowned slightly and said worriedly: "Mr. Long, I feel that the situation is a little abnormal. How about we observe here for a while?"
A sneer appeared on Long Yi's lips. Their intuition was correct. There was indeed an ambush ahead. He had already sensed two auras in the northwest corner.
One of the auras was very familiar, and it was Kaili's aura as expected. I didn't expect that the guy could still ambush me even though his butt had been bitten by the gold-eating beast. He really is a lingering ghost.
The other aura was much stronger, and it should be a warrior from the Western Regions. The strength of his aura was roughly equivalent to that of a warrior at the peak of the Profound Realm, and he was considered a master in the entire capital.
In the hidden place, Kaili said anxiously: "Jiu Wenlong, why doesn't this kid move forward for so long? Isn't the trap we set up in vain?"
Jiu Wenlong didn't show any panic on his face, and said confidently: "Don't worry! This kid finally climbed to the top of the mountain, and he will never give up the spiritual crystal that is right in front of him.
If you want to reach the Spirit Crystal Mine, you must pass through our traps, and sooner or later you will be in our trap!"
Kaili felt a little relieved. After all, if Long Yi escaped this time, it would be difficult to kill him again without anyone knowing.
As expected, Long Yi fell for it and said without any defense: "Bingqian, if we wait any longer, it will be almost evening. Once the sun sets, this Ghost Orchid Valley will become even more dangerous.
It would be better for us to collect the spirit crystals as soon as possible and get down the mountain as quickly as possible."
Ling Bingqian hesitated for a moment and then said, "Okay, Brother Yi, I'll listen to you."
Although the woman's sixth sense told her that there seemed to be unknown dangers ahead, she still chose to believe in Long Yi unconditionally.
Qin Feng also nodded, put aside his inner worries, and walked forward with Long Yi.
Kaili, who was hiding in the dark, saw that Long Yi had been fooled. He ignored the pain in his back and jumped up from the stretcher.
He said viciously, "In ten meters, this guy will be trapped in the Black Gold Immortal Locking Net. When that happens, I will make this bastard spit out all the benefits he has eaten!
Ten meters, five meters, three meters, lock!"
A large net suddenly popped up under the feet of Long Yi and Ling Bingqian, and quickly shrank upwards, sealing them up in an instant, hanging the two of them in mid-air.
Qin Feng, who was walking behind, was horrified and said anxiously: "Mr. Long, someone has set a trap here!"
A trace of panic flashed in Ling Bingqian's eyes. She originally thought that there might be a ferocious beast lurking in the dark, but she didn't expect that there was actually a person ambushing in the dark. This was ten thousand times more dangerous than a ferocious beast!
She drew the dagger from her waist and continued to cut the rope, but even with her full strength at the peak of the Profound Realm, she could not leave even two marks on the rope.
Long Yi also showed a panicked look, "Bingqian, we've fallen into a trap. We didn't expect that someone had been ambushed here at the top of Guilan Valley."
Snap, snap, snap...
There was a rustling sound from behind a dense bush, and a white man came out with a sneer, followed by the limping Carey, who kept clapping.
Kaili had a smug grin on his face and jokingly said, "Miss Ling, I advise you not to struggle in vain. You're bound by the Black Gold Locking Immortal Net. Even a chainsaw won't work with this Earth Realm binding weapon."
Ling Bingqian angrily said, "Kaili, I knew you had bad intentions. It turns out you've already set a trap for us to fall into!"
Qin Feng drew the sword from his waist and said sternly, "Kaili, if you don't release Mr. Long and Miss Ling today, my Lingxin Sect will fight you to the death!"
After saying that, he drew out his sword swiftly and stood firmly in front of Long Yi.
