23: Chapter Twenty-Three: The Treasure Hunting Team
“Miss, I have just investigated the surrounding areas.
There are many soldiers ambushed over there, and mbers of the Lin Family have also arrived.”
The speaker was a man with a head full of white hair, yet he had a vibrant spirit and ruddy complexion, appearing to be in his pri.
“Elder Xuan, this ti Daddy asked
to co with you for treasure hunting.
You are an elder, respected and esteed, so we will follow all your arrangents!”
This voice sounded as clear and pleasant as an oriole, making people feel very comfortable.
This group was the ones who had just set fire in the jungle.
The team consisted of about six people: a beautiful woman, an old white-haired man called Xiao Mi, and four people dressed in black clothes.
One of them, sitting under a tree with a sullen face, had a fire pit in front of him with so black smoke still rising, indicating that it had just been extinguished.
He tapped the fire pit with a stick and said, “Elder Xuan, our Shangguan Family is one of the top families in Tianhe City.
Why are we sneaking around like this in Yunhai, this small place?”
“If I had known it would be this boring, I, Shangguan Hong, wouldn’t have co.
Xue’er, why did you insist on coming here?”
The beautiful woman turned out to be Shangguan Xue’er.
She looked at the sulking Shangguan Hong and said, “I ca here for training, to improve my strength and help Daddy share the family’s responsibilities.”
Elder Xuan wore a smile of gratification as he looked at Shangguan Xue’er and said, “It’s good that the young mistress has such thoughts.
The Family Head will surely be very pleased to know.
On the other hand, the young master, all he does is indulge in pleasure, sigh!”
“Why bring
into this again?
The family will be fine with just Xue’er!”
Shangguan Hong looked disgruntled and continued to play with the fire pit.
On the other side.
Ye Tian listened to the conversation between Mu Yunlong and the other person, roughly understanding the situation.
It turns out that the base was empty because the soldiers were ambushed around Yunwu Mountain to capture the blood-sucking demons.
Ye Tian looked at Yunwu Mountain with a curious gaze, thinking to himself, “It seems tonight won’t be peaceful.
According to Mu Yunlong, these demons all have so cultivation.
What happened during my years of seclusion?
It seems coming down the mountain was the right choice.”
Then, Ye Tian seed to rge with the night, disappearing from where he stood.
After Mu Yunlong left the military base, he ca to a forest area in Yunwu Mountain.
There were dozens of fully ard soldiers hidden inside, exuding a sense of pride from their bones, their eyes filled with confidence.
As soon as Mu Yunlong arrived, they quickly stood up and saluted him.
Mu Yunlong said sternly, “Brothers, this mission is challenging.
The enemy is strong.
Below are the country’s flowers, and we must complete this task swiftly.
Those demons are ready to co out now.
Pick up your gear and follow .”
Upon hearing Mu Yunlong’s words, the soldiers quickly tidied up their outfits, picked up their weapons, and moved lightly, constantly scanning the surroundings.
Not long after Mu Yunlong and the soldiers left, four n walked out of the forest they had been in.
The leader was a finely dressed man with phoenix eyes, long white fingers, and a hidden fierceness in his gaze.
“Mr.
Lin, it seems those soldiers are out to catch so demons.
This shouldn’t conflict with our actions.
We don’t need to heat them up.
The most important thing now is Shangguan Xue’er and her group.”
“This ti, the Shangguan Family Head sent Elder Xuan to help her.
It might be difficult to seize the treasure.
I heard Elder Xuan recently had a breakthrough, and I might not be his match!”
The speaker was a middle-aged man with a peculiar appearance, having a unique circular pattern on his forehead.
“Mr.
Lei, my father always speaks highly of your great divine skills.
This ti, my father gave you that item.
Rest assured.”
This was the Lin Family’s eldest son, Lin Yao, who, along with Shangguan Xue’er, was known as one of Tianhe’s Double Beauties in Tianhe City.
“Indeed, we will get the Cloud Mist Pearl this ti.
Those cowardly families in Yunhai City were scared away by a few demons.
What a bunch of cowards.”
Mr.
Lei sneered disdainfully.
“Alright, we are in the dark, while the Shangguan Family and those soldiers are in the open.
We’ll follow behind them.
Maybe we can seize it effortlessly.”
Lin Yao said smugly, then quietly followed behind them.
On Yunwu Mountain’s mountainside, several people with eyes emitting an eerie red light, as if controlled by soone, were sniffing around and occasionally digging furiously on the ground.
Behind these people was a man dressed in purple clothes with a black scarf covering his face and holding a piece of paper filled with dense runes glowing with yellow light.
Pointing at the paper, he muttered sothing under his breath.
Suddenly, he stopped, looked down the mountain, and slightly raised the corner of his mouth into a contemptuous smile, muttering to himself, “A bunch of fools.
Do they really think they can stop Netherworld Hall’s actions with a few small fries?
They’re courting death.”
“But the Hall Master, honestly, what kind of experint requires absorbing blood to level up?
Although they break through quickly, their consciousness must be controlled manually, or they’ll go berserk.”
“For the sake of you families taking
to find the Cloud Mist Pearl, I’ll handle you personally when the ti cos.”
The man in purple clothes grinned viciously.
Dark mist enveloped Yunwu Mountain, but inside, undercurrents were surging as various forces fought openly and secretly.
However, little did they expect that the Divine Martial Pavilion Master, the War God Ye Tian, was also on this small Yunwu Mountain.
All that they did was dood to be in vain, rely paving the way for Ye Tian.
At that mont, a white light suddenly erged from Yunwu Mountain before vanishing again.
The moonlight seed to lose its luster in front of this white light.
The classmates sleeping at the foot of the mountain naturally missed this scene.
Shangguan Xue’er, Mu Yunlong, Lin Yao, and the man in purple clothes all looked up at the place where the white light had disappeared simultaneously.
The faces of Shangguan Xue’er, Lin Yao, and the man in purple clothes were filled with smiles, while Mu Yunlong’s eyebrows furrowed, eyes filled with concern.
“You three, co with .
The rest, continue to search for the demons’ whereabouts.
Rember to protect the freshn below.”
Mu Yunlong pointed at three soldiers and hurriedly walked up the mountain.
Shangguan Xue’er and Lin Yao erged from the darkness, their steps hurried, fearful of falling behind, rushing straight up the mountain.
The man in purple clothes controlling the demons on the mountainside turned around and vanished into the forest with them.
Hidden in the night, Ye Tian was the first to notice the anomaly, understanding that there must be a treasure on the mountain, explaining the attraction of the three factions.
However, to Ye Tian, these so-called treasures were just ordinary objects.
His interest was in watching the excitent.
Ye Tian ascended the mountain unhurriedly.
His deep eyes, containing the vastness of the stars and sea, shone like the moon, making night no different from day for him.
“Bang…..”
A loud noise was heard.
