There are eight people on Yuanran's side. Such a large team would actually ask them for help. There is only one possibility: they encountered an ambush by multiple forces.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou immediately flew towards the direction of the distress signal. When they were almost at their destination, they heard the sound of fierce fighting in front of them.

The two rushed out of the tall and dense forest, and a demon flew towards them with a ferocious face, as if he had expected their appearance.

"A late Jindan and a middle Jindan? So these are the reinforcements you invited." A demon standing on a tall rock, with a look of enjoyment, glanced at the two people and showed a contemptuous expression.

After Zhongli Tingzhou broke through to the late Jindan stage, Gao Han also broke through to the middle stage. However, among the more than ten secret realms where the late stage and the great perfection could be easily reached, the middle stage could only be regarded as the bottom. No wonder the demons looked down on them.

Unlike the demons' disdain, the disciples of Zixiao Sect showed extremely happy expressions when they saw the two people appear, especially Chang Xiaoxiao, who was as happy as if she had seen her own parents.

"Uncle master, you are finally here. These people actually bullied us. You must avenge us." Chang Xiaoxiao complained to them in a coquettish tone without hesitation.

The call of "Uncle Master" sounded very smooth, because the disciples of Zixiao Sect were of lower generation than them, and other elders were mostly of the same generation. Usually, they were the only ones who acted as elders, and elders could not act like spoiled children to the younger ones.

"I'll do it!" Gao Han shouted, and without hesitation, he rushed forward with the long sword in his hand and slashed at the demon in front.

Seeing that Gao Han was only at the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, the demon sneered and slashed back with his own sword, but flew out with a scream the next second.

Gao Han's knife did not take his life immediately, but there was no intact skin on his body, just like what happened to his companions when they dealt with the disciples of Zixiao Sect.

When dealing with human monks who are weaker than themselves, demons always like to kill them cruelly. They will not kill the opponent easily until the opponent has only one breath left, and then they will give the human monk a quick death.

Seeing that Gao Han almost killed their companion in a single encounter, the demon Dashitou immediately stopped smiling and stared at him with a gloomy look.

"You actually have some skills. I allow you to name yourself."

"Haha." Zhongli Tingzhou said sarcastically.

"This young master is not talking to you." The demon glanced at Zhongli Tingzhou with cold eyes.

He didn't make any move, so the demons didn't take him seriously.

"Idiot, you haven't gained any intelligence after suffering such a loss." A sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.

The demon's sharp eyes shot towards the Zixiao Sect disciple who spoke, "Weaklings have no right to speak."

Tian Yijun's face turned red.

Yuan Ran thought he hated Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou, but he didn't expect him to say this.

"What's going on?" Gao Han didn't even look at the demon on the big rock.

"We were ambushed." Yuan Ran said simply. After they left the cliff, they found a place to help Junior Brother Zhao and the others heal their wounds. Later, they contacted Gao Han. Their injuries were almost healed and they were ready to start looking for resources again. They didn't expect to encounter this group of demons that specialized in killing human monks.

"They deliberately dropped some resources to lure passers-by. By the time I found out, we were already surrounded."

Gao Han asked: "Did Chang Xiaoxiao and Tian Yijun get fooled?"

Chang Xiaoxiao's eyes widened when she was called.

Yuan Ran was also surprised, "How did you know?"

"Others won't act on their own without your advice." Gao Han said lightly. Chang Xiaoxiao and Tian Yijun are of higher seniority, and they have long developed the habit of doing things their own way. Even if their elders tell them to listen to Yuan Ran, Yuan Ran can't treat them as ordinary disciples.

"You have no strength, but you keep dragging others down. You are unique." Zhongli Tingzhou said with a smile.

This time even Chang Xiaoxiao lowered her head in shame, and Tian Yijun's face was already red enough to look like blood.

"Actually... it's not like that. They actually did it for us." Senior Brother Zhao with the broken arm whispered to the two of them that the thing the demon used as bait happened to be a kind of medicinal herb that could help a broken arm regenerate. It was not known whether the demon did it on purpose or it was a coincidence. The two of them were so happy at the time that they did not think too much about it.

The demon on the big rock was so angry that his face turned blue. He was actually ignored by a human, and these humans even started chatting in front of him.

"Okay, very good. Today I will make you regret coming into this world!"

Gao Han glanced coldly at the demons around him. In addition to the demon that was seriously injured by him and lost the ability to move, there were still fifteen demons. With such a large number and a sneak attack, it was no wonder that Yuan Ran and the others almost got caught.

"Have all demons been like this in the past?"

Yuan Ran nodded, "There are always some demons who aim to kill human monks. They don't care about finding resources. After all, they can get their resources by killing human monks."

"Hurry up and leave!" Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly shouted loudly.

Yuan Ran was startled, and when he saw Zhongli Tingzhou's frightened expression, he was stunned. What was going on? Was he dazzled? How could his arrogant uncle show a frightened expression?

Gao Han's eyes twitched. I wonder if this acting genius is going to start performing again in front of so many people.

"They have so many people, and we only have ten, and four or five have lost their combat effectiveness. This is not a solution. They have so many people, and four of them are commanders in the great perfection stage, and five are commanders in the late stage. We are definitely not their opponents. You guys should run as far as you can. Gao Han and I will do our best to stop them." Zhongli Tingzhou said in a hoarse voice with a heroic expression.

The demons on the opposite side wanted exactly this effect. They thought these human monks were afraid of them, and they laughed triumphantly.

"Look at this human, he's so pretty when he's scared."

"I'm already trembling all over. I really want to see him begging for mercy."

"Eleanor, give the order quickly, I can't bear it anymore."

"That's right, there are so many of them, enough for us to play with for a while, we can't let them run away."

"Don't be anxious. There are ten people here. Almost everyone has a share." The stone demon Eleanor was stunned for a moment, then he grinned grimly. He was also deceived by Zhongli Tingzhou's superb acting skills.

"If we kill ten human monks at once, it will be equivalent to one-fifth of the number of people hunting for treasure in this secret realm. This merit will be great enough, right? And I heard that if we can kill a human genius, the merit will be even higher, right?" A demon standing next to Eleanor with a haughty look on his face suddenly said.

Eleanor glanced at him and nodded. "Of course, in addition to having fun this time, we still have to calculate our merits. If you want the merits of a human genius, then do it yourself. Others will not help you unless you can't do it."

"Of course, I don't want anyone else to snatch the credit from me. I'm determined to take the head of this human genius." The demon stared at Yuan Ran with a confident murderous look.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou were just ignored.

All the disciples of Zixiao Sect were stunned. These demons were actually distributing heads in front of them. It would have been fine if they were just distributing heads, but they actually just ignored the two great-grand masters.

"Why don't you leave? Stay here and prepare for the New Year!" The actor made a sad and angry expression and shouted at them to run away.

Although no one knew what the Chinese New Year meant, it sounded like it was not a good thing. No one knew whether they should listen to their uncle-master or not. They always felt that things were heading in some strange direction.

"Don't any of you even think about leaving!" Eleanor waved his hand, and six demons immediately rushed out, blocking their retreat. Their movements were quick and decisive, and their cooperation was very tacit. It was obvious that this was not the first time they had done this. In order to hunt down human monks, they already had their own set of methods.

The drama queen sighed and said in despair and sadness: "I told you to leave, but you refused to leave. Now we are surrounded by them. It's over now. No one can escape."

His words and expressions were so infectious and expressive that even Chang Xiaoxiao, Tian Yijun and the other three who saw him easily kill several demons almost doubted whether what they had seen before was an illusion.

What my uncle (ancestor) said sounded like it was true, as if they really couldn't escape. These monsters were indeed very powerful, and there were so many of them. It seemed that my uncle (ancestor) had to launch a sneak attack last time to kill those monsters in one fell swoop?

"Uncle-master, that..." Yuan Ran looked embarrassed. He was the most sober among all the people. Although he was full of doubts, he didn't understand why his uncle-master did this.

"Yuanran, you are their senior brother. I asked you to take them away, why didn't you go? Now you can't leave even if you want to. If you are the only one who gets out alive in the end, how are you going to explain to the elders?" The drama queen had a gloomy face.

When Yuan Ran saw the demons letting down their guard, an idea suddenly occurred to him: Could it be that his uncle-master wanted to numb their vigilance?

Watching Zhongli Tingzhou's passionate performance, this was the only explanation for why he suddenly seemed like a different person. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

Even Yuanran got caught up in it. The acting spirit is really scary.

Gao Han, the only clear-headed person at the scene, sighed in his heart. He underestimated the drama queen. It was ok that he only performed in front of him before, but now he actually started to expand the scope of his business.

"Uncle-master, don't worry. If my fellow disciples die, I will never let them go. Even if I die, I will take a few of them with me." Yuan Ran shouted with shame.

Gao Han had nothing to say.

"Okay, let's die together. Today, we will kill these monsters and avenge the Zixiao Sect's disciples who died before!" It's that simple to be addicted to acting.

Eleanor looked at these faces full of grief and anger, as if they were humans struggling on the edge of a cliff. Her hands began to tremble slightly. The demon became excited and shouted loudly.

"Guys, the game has begun!"
