I've seen the leader, Yun He, before; he's also a bounty hunter. Their extraordinary legion is quite large, and this Jiang Hao is a squad leader.
“Miss, this must be something good, otherwise the Extraordinary Legion wouldn’t be here,” Yunhe said happily to her master.
Qian Youxue stared intently ahead. That guy named Jiang Hao was quite capable; he actually used his spiritual power to erect a two-meter-high barrier, and with his other hand, he used his spiritual power to send out a strong gust of wind, blowing all the smoke into the cave.
Jiang Hao's move quickly took effect.
After a series of crawling sounds, the cave entrance suddenly became lively. Jiang Hao saw what was crawling out and got goosebumps all over his body. He then gestured to his men.
In an instant, the team members who had been watching the show at the cave entrance fled frantically toward the entrance of the forest, as if their lives depended on it.
Before the Dongming brothers could figure out what was going on, Yunhe understood the gesture and grabbed his master and Mei'er, running for their lives.
"Why are you running?" Mei asked, puzzled.
Yunhe did not answer, but quickened his pace. When he was almost at the edge of the woods, he slowed down and stopped.
However, just as they stopped, they heard running sounds behind them, and the group quickly jumped onto a large tree and hid there.
The one who caught up was none other than Jiang Hao, who was the last to retreat. At this moment, Jiang Hao was covered in blood, and a huge creature was chasing after him.
A huge black snake, as thick as a man's waist, was running furiously after Jiang Hao. With a sweep of its thick, long tail, all the saplings were destroyed.
Mei breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that she had run fast; otherwise, the giant black snake would have swallowed them all.
At that moment, Yun He and Qian Youxue both smiled strangely, staring intently at the large black snake with greedy glints in their eyes.
"Master, you wouldn't..." Mei'er pointed at the big black snake, her mouth agape.
"We came out here to gain experience, so how can we just stand by and watch when there are good things?" Qian Youxue said leisurely, watching Jiang Hao easily dodge the attack of the big black snake, and thought that Jiang Hao was quite skilled.
“Master, he’s a squad leader in the Extraordinary Legion. If he didn’t have some skills, he would probably be dead in the forest long ago.” Yunhe could see Qian Youxue’s appreciation for Jiang Hao. However, not everyone can be used by them, especially squad leaders in legions who are extremely loyal to their legions.
That's right!
Qian Youxue simply sat on the tree trunk, where she could see perfectly how Jiang Hao and the others dealt with the giant black snake.
Jiang Hao was clever. He led the big black snake around the forest a few times, exhausting its energy, before leading them to an open space not far from Qian Youxue and the others.
It has to be said that large legions are different; the seamless teamwork among their subordinates speaks for itself. After Jiang Hao brought the giant black snake into the open area, the team members began a series of eliminations.
Now it seems that Jiang Hao's series of actions just now were not only to exhaust the black snake's stamina, but also to buy time for his team members to set up more traps.
Whoosh whoosh!
One end of the bamboo was sharpened to a fine point, the sharp points piercing the thick scales, causing the large black snake to writhe in pain in mid-air. And just as it opened its mouth, the team members hidden in the shadows threw two large packages into it.
"Miss, what are they throwing into the big black snake's mouth?" Mei asked curiously.
"Firearms, I wonder how powerful they are?" Yunhe was no stranger to these things.
Qian Youxue was no stranger to firearms, but she was surprised to find them here, which made her quite excited.
Boom!
Two loud explosions ripped through the black snake's mouth, leaving it mangled beyond recognition. In agony, it ran frantically, trying to escape the enemy's encirclement.
Unfortunately, once you enter this place, you can't leave easily. Jiang Hao and his group were determined to get their hands on this huge creature. The inner core alone could fetch a lot of money, and the rare black snake gall could also significantly increase their income. Therefore, they were very focused on dealing with the giant black snake.
The poor black snake's mouth was blown apart. It rolled on the ground for a short while before being struck by a burst of spiritual energy, rendering it unable to move. Then, its inner core was ripped out while it was still alive. Finally, after struggling a few more times, it collapsed into a pool of blood.
It's a pity that the blood of the big black snake is a top-grade tonic. Qian Youxue felt uncomfortable seeing that, and when she saw them take out the snake gall, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"Brother Hao, we've got two snake gallbladders! We're really rich this time!" One of the henchmen grinned happily after receiving the snake gallbladders.
Jiang Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling that he had wasted the black snake's blood. But there was nothing he could do; his abilities were limited, and he had already reached his limit by getting his hands on this thing.
"Brother Hao, we got the stuff. Shall we go back and report?" Another henchman handed Jiang Hao a pot of water.
Jiang Hao tilted his head back and took a big gulp, wiping the water from the corner of his mouth as he said casually, "This is just the prelude. However, this big black snake was most likely guarding that thing. Now that the big black snake is dead, that thing should be able to come out tonight."
"What?" The younger brother scratched his head in surprise. This difficult thing was just the prelude; there was more to come?
Jiang Hao didn't say much, and led his group back to the cave entrance before nightfall.
At this moment, the Dongming brothers were already waiting near the cave entrance. Seeing Jiang Hao's men leave and then return, they guessed that the big black snake must have been killed by them.
That takes real skill; most people couldn't do that!
The Dongming brothers clicked their tongues and shook their heads, took a few bites of the specially prepared spirit beast meat, and one of them stood guard while the other dozed off.
Qian Youxue and her two maids had just found a place to squat down when they sensed the unusual nature of the Yin-Yang Sword. Normally, they would only summon the Yin-Yang Sword when needed; this was the first time they had encountered it in such a situation. Therefore, they felt even more curious about what was in the cave.
...
"You said the princess and the others went into that forest?" After listening to Wuyai's report, Bu Yu's expression became more worried.
If an ordinary person went in for training, he wouldn't think much of it. But Qian Youxue's identity was special. He had finally found someone who could understand the curse on Ye's body. If she died, he would really want to bang his head against a wall.
Why……
He let out a long sigh of relief and paced back and forth, hands behind his back, looking dejected. He turned to Wuya and asked, "Does Your Highness know about this?"
"They probably don't know that Leng Qing and Leng Yu are trapped in the formation," Wuya reported truthfully.
"That's good. Go and follow them. The princess must come alive." After saying that, Bu Yu handed a spatial ring to Wuya.
Wuya's eyes lit up when he saw the ring. He had followed the young master for many years and naturally knew what was inside. Now, for the safety of the princess, the young master was making a great sacrifice.
no!
This thing must never be seen by the princess, otherwise, it will be gone forever.
