No, something happened!
Su Mu and Luo An Ning looked at each other and saw shock and surprise in each other’s eyes.
“go!”
Su Mu rushed forward quickly with a serious expression.
Along the way, he thought of various possibilities, including that Feng Zhengqian and He Guangshao would deliberately harm him.
When encountering danger, Feng Zhengqian let him face it alone, and even if Feng Zhengqian directly tried to kill him, Su Mu would not be surprised at all.
The only thing he hadn’t thought of was the situation before him.
From any perspective, He Guangshao had no motive to return the favor to Feng Zhengqian.
If we were to say who He Guangshao hated the most, it would definitely be Su Mu.
If given the chance, Su Mu believed that He Guangshao would kill him without hesitation.
But Feng Zhengqian was the person He Guangshao had been trying to curry favor with along the way.
He Guangshao gave up the Taiping Division and chose to join the Shennong Baicao Sect. If he wanted to climb up in the Shennong Baicao Sect, then making friends with Feng Zhengqian was a must.
He did the same along the way. As the eldest son of the He family, one of the four major families in the inner city of Wuling City, he served Feng Zhengqian like a lackey and made him obedient.
So when He Guangshao said that he knew the whereabouts of the Xuanzhu grass, Su Mu initially thought that He Guangshao wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him.
He has also been on guard against this matter.
Unexpectedly, after arriving at the place, He Guangshao did not let him explore the way, but chose to open the way himself and directly brought Feng Zhengqian into the cave.
Could it be that He Guangshao really thought there was no danger in the cave, and an accident happened?
Su Mu was puzzled and had already rushed into the cave.
Su Mu suddenly went blind from a bright place into a dark cave.
Swish!
The Thunder Blade was unsheathed, transforming into a dense field of blade beams, making the defense in front of him watertight.
Su Mu stopped his actions only after his vision adjusted to the darkness in the cave and he was sure there were no enemies in front of him.
At this time, Luo Anning also came to his side.
“What about people?”
Luo Anning asked in a deep voice.
Su Mu shook his head.
A fork in the road appeared in front of them.
There is a pitch-black passage on each side, and I don’t know where it leads to.
Just as the two were hesitating about which way to go, suddenly, a scream was heard again from the passage on the right.
Without hesitation, the two rushed towards the passage on the right.
From beginning to end, neither of them considered acting separately.
The situation is unclear, and if we separate hastily, we will only give the enemy the opportunity to defeat us one by one.
The two men moved forward cautiously. The cave became darker and darker, until finally even the last bit of light disappeared, and it was pitch dark when one stretched out one’s hand.
puff.
Luo Anning took out a fire starter and blew it gently to light it.
The flames flickered, tearing a hole in the black curtain, barely illuminating the area one or two steps around the two people.
Su Mu’s Thunder Blade was not unsheathed, but was always held in his hand, ready to strike at any time.
Luo An Ning held a fire starter in one hand, and the other hand had already been placed on the long sword at his waist, looking around vigilantly.
“This way!”
Su Mu whispered and took two steps forward.
Luo An Ning followed closely behind, the fire illuminated the ground, revealing a corpse on the ground.
The corpse had just died, and was covered with marks of being bitten by wild beasts. There was still fear in its eyes.
“Corpse goblins, these are traces of corpse goblins injuring people!”
Luo Anning whispered, his face turning slightly pale.
Just as he finished speaking, a low roar like that of a wild beast suddenly came from the darkness ahead, followed by a strong wind that blew out the fire starter in Luo An Ning’s hand.
Su Mu did not hesitate at all, the Thunder Blade turned into a white silk and slashed forward.
Boom!
The blade hit something, and there was a loud bang of metal clashing.
Feeling the recoil force coming from his hand, Su Mu was slightly surprised.
With a cold snort, the Thunder Blade’s moves changed, and the Kanshui artistic conception was unleashed, transforming into chain-like streams of water. He identified the opponent’s position by sound and entangled him tightly.
At this time, Luo An Ning re-lit the fire, dispelling a little of the thick darkness.
Only then did Su Mu see clearly that his opponent was a tall humanoid creature with black hair and red eyes.
The Thunder Blade hit the opponent’s body, black hair flew everywhere and smelly blood flowed out, but the wound was only a shallow one.
Although Su Mu did not use his full strength, he had already used his artistic conception. Even a steel knife could be easily cut off with just a casual strike.
The body of this corpse goblin is actually harder than steel!
Su Mu knew that there were unknown dangers in the cave and it was not advisable to fight for a long time.
His eyes became fierce, and thousands of drops of dark yellow blood in his body surged and moved like surging waves.
With a “hum” sound, the Thunder Blade cut out a blade shadow.
The knife flashed like a silk thread, splitting the air and making a bang.
wow…
In an instant, the knife flashed across the corpse goblin’s neck.
The corpse goblin that was pouncing forward and howling madly suddenly stopped where it was.
The fluffy black head rolled down from the neck, and smelly black blood gushed out, emitting a foul stench.
When Luo An Ning saw this scene, he quietly retracted the step he had taken.
She wanted to help.
Unexpectedly, in just a short while, Su Mu beheaded the corpse goblin.
He seemed to be much stronger than the last time he faced the killer from Jinfeng Tower.
We both had eight times blood transfusion, so why did he feel much stronger than me?
Is it because of the supernatural powers of the physical body?
The supernatural powers of the physical body are mysterious and profound, and most people do not understand the truth about them.
Luo An Ning could only attribute Su Mu’s excessive ferocity to the physical supernatural powers brought about by the limit of body tempering.
“Brother Su, something is wrong.”
Luo An Ning whispered, “This corpse goblin is only at the ordinary Blood Exchange Realm. Feng Zhengqian can easily deal with it with his strength. There may be more than one corpse goblin here!”
Su Mu nodded, he also realized this problem.
Feng Zhengqian himself is an expert at 50% blood exchange, and he is also practicing the Hundred Herbs Blood Exchange Method which has nine times the effect. His strength is even stronger than warriors of the same level.
Moreover, Feng Zhengqian has more than a dozen subordinates in the Blood Exchange Realm and Body Tempering Realm.
A corpse goblin at the blood exchange stage is not enough to threaten them.
The two screams I just heard were clearly made by two people.
If Feng Zhengqian and his group had not gotten separated, then they would have been in real danger.
Looking at the pitch-black passage ahead, it was like the mouth of a ferocious beast that was about to devour everything.
The best option now is to exit the cave immediately, ignore Feng Zhengqian and others, get away from here immediately, and return to the city for help.
But this means that their mission has completely failed.
If Feng Zhengqian died here and they returned safely, it is conceivable that the Shennong Herb Sect would definitely take advantage of the situation.
At that time, forget about the Blood Strengthening Pill, and forget about the Nine Blood Transformation Method. You may even be punished by the Taiping Division.
But this is safer and there is no need to face unknown risks. Just as Su Mu was hesitating, suddenly another shrill scream came from the depths of the passage.
“No, we can’t let Feng Zhengqian get into trouble. This is our mission!”
Luo An Ning let out a low cry, passed Su Mu, and ran towards the direction where the shouting came from.
Su Mu stretched out his hand to stop her, but failed.
He couldn’t help but sigh.
Luo An Ning is not reckless, she is just too serious.
Once she takes on a task, she will complete it seriously and meticulously, without even considering backing off.
In Su Mu’s words, Miss Luo is too idealistic and has not suffered enough from the harsh punishments of society.
Seeing that Luo An Ning had already run away, Su Mu felt helpless. He could abandon Feng Zhengqian and other irrelevant people, but he couldn’t ignore Luo An Ning.
After all, they are colleagues in the Taiping Division, right?
…………
Deep in the cave, the narrow passage suddenly became wide, forming a space that was more than ten feet long and wide.
In this huge space, there are dozens of zombies at this moment, surrounding Feng Zhengqian, He Guangshao and others in the center.
Feng Zhengqian held a cold and terrifying sword in his hand, his face looking so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping from it.
He looked around and found that there were only five or six of his men left. The rest had been separated when they were avoiding the pursuit of the zombies.
“Damn, why are there so many zombies here?”
Feng Zhengqian said coldly, but he was not very panicked.
With his strength, he can still fight his way out here.
Besides, there were two Taiping captains outside to support him. After hearing the noise, they would definitely chase after him.
Although he didn’t like the two of them, their strength was actually quite good, especially Su Mu, who had a strong physique that had been tempered to the limit. He was jealous just looking at him.
“Brother, I really don’t know why there are so many corpse goblins here all of a sudden. When I came here last time, there really wasn’t a single one.”
He Guangshao knelt down in front of Feng Zhengqian with a plop.
“It’s no surprise that demons gather where the black pearl grass grows. It’s not your fault. Get up.”
Feng Zhengqian said casually, “Let’s fight our way out together!”
“Yes, senior brother.”
He Guangshao lowered his head and suddenly, he leaned forward from his kneeling position.
puff!
A knife stabbed into Feng Zhengqian’s abdomen, the tip of the knife came out from his back, and a few drops of blood dripped from the tip of the knife.
“what!”
Feng Zhengqian let out a scream of pain, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.
boom!
In anger, Feng Zhengqian kicked He Guangshao out.
Just when he was about to step forward and finish off He Guangshao once and for all, the intense pain caused him to stagger and half-kneel on the ground, with blood spurting out of his mouth.
“Senior Brother Feng!”
The disciples of Shennong Baicao Sect brought by Feng Zhengqian exclaimed and rushed forward, supporting Feng Zhengqian in panic.
Feng Zhengqian covered the wound on his abdomen and stared at He Guangshao who was crawling up in a panic in the distance.
“Why?!”
He growled with all his remaining strength.
“Brother Feng, don’t blame me. Blame it on why you came to Wuling City at this time!”
He Guangshao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said grimly, “If you die, I will kill Su Mu and Luo An Ning to avenge you. By then, I will be your benefactor, Senior Brother Feng, and the Feng family will definitely repay me greatly. I will definitely be able to make a name for myself in the Shennong Baicao Sect!”
“you–“
Feng Zhengqian was furious, his face turned red, and he couldn’t help but spit out another mouthful of blood.
“You’re going to kill me just for this? Didn’t I promise you—”
Feng Zhengqian couldn’t believe it.
He couldn’t believe that someone wanted to kill him for such a ridiculous idea, and someone actually dared to kill him!
“Why should I be your dog when I can be a decent person? Do you think I’ve been very comfortable serving you these days?”
He Guangshao roared, “Let me tell you, the water you drank these days was all drugged by me!
The disciples of Shennong Baicao Sect are just like this. They can’t even detect my medicine!”
A smug look appeared on He Guangshao’s ferocious face.
The faces of the Shennong Herb Sect disciples around Feng Zhengqian suddenly changed. They had been feeling weak before and originally thought that it was because the foul smell in the cave was too heavy.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be poison!
Everyone took out detoxification pills from their pockets and stuffed them into their mouths.
The thing that the disciples of Shennong Herb Sect have the most of is medicinal pills.
Someone also stuffed a few pills into Feng Zhengqian’s mouth.
The wound on Feng Zhengqian’s abdomen actually stopped bleeding.
“It’s useless. Even if you can detoxify, you can’t escape.”
He Guangshao sneered and suddenly whistled.
Accompanied by a whistle, footsteps were heard from the passage, and a man walked out of the passage.
The man looked like a beggar, with disheveled hair. He held a xiao carved out of bones in his hand and began to play it in a sobbing voice.
Those corpse goblins suddenly rioted, roaring and rushing towards Feng Zhengqian and others.
“Brother Feng, you go first!”
The members of the Shennong Herb Sect roared and used their remaining strength to fight against the zombies.
Feng Zhengqian gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain in his abdomen, and staggered into the passage on the other side.
He could hear screams from his men and fellow apprentices behind him, but Feng Zhengqian didn’t dare to look back. He endured the pain and ran forward. The wound on his abdomen began to bleed again, and blood dripped all the way.
“Brother Feng, why bother? Why can’t you just accept your death? This way, both of us can save trouble. If you die, Su Mu and Luo An Ning will be buried with you. Isn’t that good?”
He Guangshao’s voice came from behind, getting closer and closer.
Feng Zhengqian was so angry that his blood was boiling. He held on to the wall with one hand to avoid falling to the ground. He could not help but spit out another mouthful of blood.
“From the moment you enter the cave, you can’t escape.”
He Guangshao finally appeared in Feng Zhengqian’s field of vision, accompanied by countless zombies.
“In order to make you die, I even exposed the biggest secret of the He family to you. How could you not die?”
He Guangshao said coldly, “Not only you, but everyone will die, including Su Mu and Luo Anning, and I, the eldest young master of the He family, will escape back to Wuling City with a seriously injured body.
Su Mu and Luo An Ning were greedy for money and killed you, Senior Brother Feng. I will fight to the death to avenge you and bring back the elixir that Shennong Baicao Sect needs. I will be a great hero of Wuling City and Shennong Baicao Sect!”
He Guangshao stretched out his arms as if to welcome the cheers from the whole city, with an intoxicated expression on his face.
“For my glory, Senior Brother Feng, please die.”
He Guangshao opened his eyes, looked at Feng Zhengqian and said seriously.
Several zombies roared and pounced on them.
Feng Zhengqian’s face showed despair. He had never thought that one day he would die in such a miserable way.
suddenly.
A figure flew over the heads of the corpse goblins and landed lightly in front of Feng Zhengqian. With a flash of sword, several corpse goblins were forced back.
“You can’t kill him while I’m here.”
Feng Zhengqian looked at the slender figure in front of him, with strong emotions welling up in his heart. At this moment, he felt that Luo Anning was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life!
“You’ve come just in time. You can die with him!”
He Guangshao shouted, the sound of the xiao rang out, and countless zombies rushed up like a tide.
