In the center of the battlefield, the black tiger was extremely ferocious. In an instant, two people were killed by its claws and fangs, two people fell to the ground seriously injured, and two people turned around in panic and fled screaming. Zhang Xue, who was running at the end, had already noticed the unusual movements of Wang Chong and the other man and escaped in time. But she did not dare to really leave her back to the tiger. After running a certain distance, she retreated in a defensive posture. There was another man with her. There were only six young men who actually rushed forward to fight the tiger, and they were completely outmatched by these men. The tiger also suffered some minor injuries in this encounter, with its front legs scratched and bleeding. It roared angrily, and its claws flew, immediately knocking away the two people who turned around and fled. Then, the tiger ignored everyone else and pounced directly on the wild boar that was lying on the ground and wailing, and grabbed its throat. Then he dragged his prey into the depths of the dense forest. Zhang Xue and the other two showed expressions of great joy. They stayed away from Wang Chong and the other two and quickly turned around and ran in another direction.
Just as we were about to enter the woods, two men with malicious intentions appeared behind a big tree at the edge. It was Wang Chong and Gao Wan. It turned out that Wang Chong had noticed Zhang Xue's escape a long time ago, and ran towards them to intercept them when they entered the woods. Zhang Xue and the other man were shocked, gripped their weapons tightly, and slowly backed away. Wang Chong and his two companions slowly approached with knives. Zhang Xue’s cold face became extremely solemn. The man next to her asked loudly: "Wang Chong, Gao Wan, what do you two want to do?" "I would like to have a sparring match with you, but the loser will have to pay with his life." Wang Chong replied with a sneer. The man who questioned Wang Chong quickened his pace of retreat, and after only a few steps, he immediately turned around and ran away quickly. But before he could escape far, a knife pierced through his vest and he was knocked to the ground in an instant. "Do you think you can escape?" After throwing the knife, Wang Chong sneered without hesitation. Then, his eyes locked on Zhang Xue. "Brother, since there are three sets of materials, just give this woman to me, your third brother." Gao Wan restrained the lust in her eyes and cast a pleading look at Wang Chong. "This woman is indeed beautiful. No wonder the lustful Gao Wan is so patient this time. Although he is my third brother, he is narrow-minded and fickle. If I kill this woman now, it will probably cause Gao Wan's hostility, which is not what I want. I originally planned to ambush others and kill people to steal the treasures halfway. Now that the materials have been gathered, I am afraid that I will be ambushed and robbed by others on the way back. Keeping these two people may be of great use." Wang Chong thought to himself. "That depends on whether my third brother can accept this girl." Wang Chong stopped and stared at Zhang Xue with interest. "Zhang Xue, are you willing to follow me?" Gao Wan stared at Zhang Xue with his eyes, the naked possessiveness in his eyes was not concealed at all. "I..." Zhang Xue stopped, pursed her lips, and tried hard to suppress her emotions. After a pause, he finally gritted his teeth, threw the sword in his hand to the ground, lowered his head and begged weakly: "As long as you don't kill me, I'm willing to do anything." "Hahaha, thank you so much, brother!" Gao Wan's brows lit up with joy. After thanking Wang Chong, she immediately ran over and hugged Zhang Xue, her hands still roaming freely on her body.
Zhang Xue's delicate body trembled slightly, but her face showed only aggrieved expression. Wang Chong saw Zhang Xue's actions and raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect Zhang Xue to be so flexible. "Quickly kill the rest of the people and search their bodies for the materials they have." After Wang Chong gave the order, he stepped forward, drew his knife, and looked around vigilantly. At the same time, he sneered in his heart: "Haha, I was just thinking about how to get rid of these people, but I didn't expect that two of them would attract Black Tiger. God is really helping me!" On the other side, Yi Han kindly gave the tiger skin material to everyone for free, and then took Chu Yaoer for a long distance before stopping. In the dense forest, Yi Han moved forward cautiously. He was now wearing a white shoe on the foot where he lost the shoe. On the way, they encountered a corpse that had just died. Yi Han compared the sizes and tore off one and put it on his feet. Chu Yaoer, who was traveling with us, looked around along the way. From time to time, he would excitedly pull up a blade of grass, look at it carefully, and then throw it away in disappointment. "Is Jiancao playing hide-and-seek with me?" She stroked her little mouth lightly, looking thoughtful. Looking at Chu Yaoer's actions, Yi Han was no longer surprised. Along the way, Chu Yaoer never asked about going back to snatch the materials, and Yi Han did not remind her deliberately. From the very beginning, Yi Han had no intention of going back to steal the materials. After all, there is the risk posed by the tiger as well as the threat posed by a dozen teenagers. No matter whether everyone was defeated and eaten by the black tiger, or they had joined forces to surround and kill the black tiger. Yi Han would naturally not take such a risk which was right in front of him but full of uncertainty. In comparison, it is obviously safer to intercept and kill the right "destined person". Yi Han smiled slightly and said, "Miss Yao'er, our hunting time has begun." At noon, the sun was high in the sky. The scorching sun shines through the lush treetops, casting down in patches. From time to time, the roars of wild beasts could be heard in the forest. Even if the sun was scorching and warm, it still made people feel cold. A young man of about sixteen or seventeen was walking quickly on the forest path, heading towards the golden palace of Yunxi Sect. The boy had an ordinary appearance and was dressed in coarse linen clothes. But he had a firm gaze, a strong and sturdy figure, and his steps were steady and powerful. He held a long sword in his hand, with bloodstains on the blade. The coarse cloth shirt on his upper body was in tatters, with several large holes torn in the front, revealing his strong abdominal muscles.
His whole body was covered in blood, and he looked extremely tough. There was a layer of folded tiger skin on its back, and judging from its thickness, the tiger was unusually large. The tiger skin was tightly tied with leopard tendons to form the shape of a backpack and hung on his shoulders. The boy shrugged and muttered to himself as he strode forward. "It's been half a month. It's been a full half a month!" "There are so many wild animals in this forest, and they are so huge that it is unbelievable." "No, they are not wild beasts, but monsters!" "I remember half a month ago, we formed a team of twelve to look for materials. We thought we could do whatever we wanted in this forest. Even wild animals had to avoid us when they saw us." "Who would have thought that a tiger would chase us for two miles, killing or injuring half of our men." "If it weren't for a few teammates who foolishly fought to the death, sacrificing their own lives to die together with the tiger, I would probably not have been killed by the tiger, and I would not have been able to complete the mission." "I thought sword grass was the easiest material to obtain, but I didn't expect there would be a giant snake accompanying it. For three sword grasses, I lost another teammate. Unfortunately, I didn't get the snake venom." "Later, two people died while killing the leopard, leaving only me, a man and a woman." "Haha, there are three of us in total, but we only have one set of materials." "Please don't blame me, I was forced to do this!" "It's just a pity for the female companion. She is beautiful and graceful, but she is too stubborn and would rather die than obey." The boy recalled the dangers and hardships of searching for materials, and felt filled with emotion. I feel very sorry about the suicide of the girl I secretly love. He raised his head and looked at the five majestic peaks in the distance and the little golden dots, sometimes feeling happy and sometimes sad. "I heard that in Yunxi Sect, if you can't get a cave on the mountainside and a flying sword for traveling, you can't even find a female companion." With a sigh, the boy smiled at himself. "A man of great ambition, to run east to the sea, why should he worry about not having a wife?" "I, Lu Ming, come from a humble background, but I will never be willing to be a mediocre person." "I want to complete the mission! I want to kill those who stand in my way! I want to become an immortal cultivator! I want to be the best among men! I want to stand proudly here... between heaven and earth!" Lu Ming lowered his voice, but his bold words were like a roc spreading its wings and soaring into the sky.
