Chapter 513 Soul Shadow
...
The group completely ignored the young King Ranking Expert, who dragged his injured friends out of the restaurant. They didn't see him as a danger to them at all, so they didn't kill him, and they didn't even give him any attention.
"When we finish eating, let's explore the city and see what interesting things are here." Yan Xiaobao said with a smile. He had eaten some delicious food too much.
"Let your brother take you around." Deng Wu said proudly. When he pushed his chest away and tried to look important, everyone laughed at him again.
In the past few years, Deng Wu has visited the Sunset Mountains many times. Every time, he will join various adventure groups to capture the strong soul shadows of various wild beasts.
Because he often came to Sunset Mountain, Deng Wu had also visited this city. However, this was a very short stay and he was not really familiar with the location.
"So, in that case, we will trust you." Sha Yun smiled. "But if you take us to a entertainment venue with many beautiful maids, don't blame us for telling Xing when we go home."
Hearing her words, Deng Wu's body became stiff and a worried smile appeared. "Yun, my dearest Yun, you are my brother's good wife, how can you tell your husband's good brother?"
Everyone laughed, their laughter rang throughout the quiet restaurant. Many had not yet responded to the fact that the young man and his man were so miserably beaten by a young woman. Looking at the entire group in front of them, they all seemed equally terrible.
After finishing the food, everyone stood up. Yan Xiaobao included the money on the table, and then they left the restaurant and prepared to see the city they are currently in.
Walking down the street, most people rushed out. Some looked at them with fear; others looked at them with curiosity. Everyone had heard of the group and a beautiful woman who managed to destroy a large group with just one move.
Arriving in the city center, they found a square full of merchants and mercenaries for sale and purchase. Surprisingly, Yan Xiaobao began to look at many stalls and bought several items there, mainly rare herbs and wild beast cores.
Yan Xiaobao was not the only one to buy items. Qiao bought snacks at all the stalls she could find. Her eyes were shining and her face was filled with a smile. "Continue to eat like this, you will come soon." Laos said affectionately as he satirized Joe's hair, but all the reward he received was Qiao sticking out his tongue to continue eating her snacks.
Listening to the two children, Yan Xiaobao smiled, but he did not interfere. It really made him happy to see his brothers and sisters carefree. Walking through the market, they bought a lot of things and food; even Laos were inspired by Joe and bought some snacks he ate, but his biggest focus was the merchants who sold pills. Laos was always looking for pills that could help him gain elemental affinity. He also looked for herbs that could give Yan Xiaobao so that his father could make more pills for him.
Everyone is interested in the market, but almost all the items for sale are what people find on the mountain. Most of Yan Xiaobao's projects can also be obtained in Muchuan City; only it is cheaper here than in the capital.
They were respected everywhere by merchants and mercenaries. Rumors of this toxic woman have spread throughout the city and no one wants to insult them. After all, this is a small city, with not many strong farmer.
After completing their shopping, Yan Xiaobao and others walked through the town, saw various stalls, and bought things here and there. Although there was not much to watch after leaving the market.
"Let's go home and rest." Yan Xiaobao said with a smile, and the others nodded.
Relax in this small city, once the rumors about Wang Julong spread, no one dared to cause disputes. Because of this, they encountered no interference and managed to fully rest in the small city in a short time.
Early in the morning, the groups gathered in front of the hotel door. Their eyes were glittering with excitement, and their faces could not hide their smiles. They finally set out and nodded to each other as they looked at the world around them. No one said anything, but together they walked out of town and headed straight for the Sunset Mountains. It was a huge mountain range and forest, full of many strong beasts, bordering the city where they lived.
In the suburbs of the forest, at the foot of the mountain, they met many groups, but none of them foolishly enough to deal with Yan Xiaobao and his friends. Everyone in Yan Xiaobao's group has a very domineering halo, and their group is definitely not small, which makes all other groups dare not even look at them.
They also encountered many low-level magical beasts, but like humans, these beasts avoided the expert group as much as they could. Even relatively powerful beasts avoided them because of their aura. The first day of the trip passed quickly and they did not have to play any beats.
At this time, the group had penetrated into the Sunset Mountains, and the only thing they could hear was the sound of wild beasts. These strong beasts were more alert than the weak beasts, and they usually avoid such a large group as much as possible. The long-lived beasts were by no means stupid. Even if their group moved to their territory, they would try their best to avoid them. These beasts were kings and queens in the forest, but they were just creatures after all. Yan Xiaobao's group had many experts, so if they wanted to fight them, they would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage. So they stayed away.
Yan Xiaobao also made sure that while they kept moving forward, they were also very careful not to destroy any surroundings, and they were far away from the homes of the local king and queen. He had no intention of making them feel endangered, so mutual understanding appeared between Yan Xiaobao and the beast. As long as neither of them fought against the other, they would maintain a neutral relationship and pretend that they did not see the other.
"How far do we need to go to this mountain range before we reach the Central Palace?" Yan Xiaobao asked curiously on the fifth day of his trip. He could feel that they often became farther and farther, but he had never been here before. Although he led this team, the person who really decided his path was Deng Wu. He was the most familiar person in the Sunset Mountains and had been to the Central Palace before.
"We are about half the mountain. When we reach the top of the mountain, we will have to go west, and then we should reach the Central Palace. Unfortunately, I think it will take about a week's walk before we arrive. In addition, I'm worried that the closer we get to the Central Palace, the more dangerous it will become. Remember that the Dragon Legion has a road to the Central Palace. They may leave their underground world from time to time to collect materials, train or perform missions. If we encounter the Dragon Legion, we can't let them know that we are going to the Central Palace. Although the palace may be abandoned now, it is Anhe and Long's home legion very loyal to that hole." Deng Wu continued, and Yan Xiaobao nodded.
Before reaping the power of the ancestors' world from various laws in the world, the Dragon Legion followed An He's orders. It was obvious that their willingness to do anything for their masters would indeed cause them some problems.
After quieting down, the group continued to travel through the dense forest, and suddenly a light shone in front of them. A sense of danger came to the group, and they all gathered behind Yan Xiaobao.
Yan Xiaobao stood in front with Cai Jie and Deng Wu. Behind him were jo, lao, wang ju long and sha yun, they were like diamonds in Laos in the distance.
A force surged into them. A shock wave filled with pure energy, the energy was so pure that Yan Xiaobao had never encountered anything like before.
He held his cold storm sword with one hand and the blood sword he took out from Cooling with the other, and the two swords formed a cross in front of Yan Xiaobao's head. With a shout, his own Wu Wei shot upwards, catering to the descending energy.
His martial power alone is not enough to block the incoming energy waves, but they are enough to slow it down and cause it to lose some power. In turn, this allows Yan Xiaobao to use his two swords to block the remaining power.
"Keep the formation and move forward slowly!" Yan Xiaobao took a step forward. Another shock wave was moving towards him and was blocked in the same way again.
From his cold storm sword, a blizzard slowly emerged from nowhere. The snow fell into the quiet forest, while the sword from the blood flowing out of the other hand buzzed, as its killing intention rose from the inside.
Taking a step forward at a time, Blizzard Prison blocked the sight of those who attacked them and protected them from attacks. While more shock waves began to descend, none of these shock waves fell on Yan Xiaobao or his companions. Snowstorm Prison once again proved to be worthy of the attack hidden in the cold Storm Sword.
Walking forward, the sound of their steps was overshadowed by the heavy atmosphere brought by the Blizzard Prison, and they soon arrived at the person who attacked them. Although each attack was blocked by Yan Xiaobao, the closer they approached, the more they attacked. As they got closer, he used Wu Wei more and more, but he still succeeded in making sure no one was injured.
Around him, Deng Wu and Cai Jie were doing the same thing to stop them from moving forward.
"Stop the attack!" Deng Wu suddenly shouted out. His voice was full of surprise, but also full of excitement. His words confused Yan Xiaobao, but after hearing his words, he withdrew from the Blizzard Prison and now face to face with their attackers.
The moment he stopped attacking, his face was clumsy. Soon he smiled on his face because he understood why Deng Wu asked him to stop attacking.
"Please stop attacking! We are the ones who saved you!" Deng Wu shouted, his words shocking the characters in front of them before they stopped attacking.
Although these people were shocked, they were not that bad. They stared at Yan Xiaobao and his party. Although they were hostile, they were not attacked.
As someone gets closer, a commotion can be heard from behind, and soon a little girl appears. This little girl is the one they remember from the dungeon. She is very beautiful; her skin is like porcelain, her big eyes are completely black. She is the law of clouds, and she has been tortured by the Dragon Legion. It is obvious that she is one of the higher-ranked laws in this group, and what she says is obviously the orders that others follow.
The moment they saw Yan Xiaobao and Deng Wu, the little girl's eyes widened a lot. Although they didn't see Yan Xiaobao for a moment, they had all seen Deng Wu. Due to his unusual appearance, it was hard to forget him. After all, there were not many blue-haired men.
"This is true!" she said with a trembling voice and smile on her beautiful, petite face. "It was them who saved us!"
Hearing her words, the others who also knew Deng Wu nodded. Their faces were no longer full of hostility, but full of excitement.
Although many laws are excited, the little girl seems to be bothering.
"Although we thank you for your help, we live alone in the Sunset Mountains. We are so far apart that humans will never enter our area. Why are you all here? If you need help, we will, if we can help you, we can help you." The little girl's words were full of sincerity, but Yan Xiaobao and his friends were very clear that although she was sincere, she obviously didn't know why they were here. If it weren't for their help, why would anyone enter the Sunset Mountains so deeply?
"We are not here to ask for your help..." Yan Xiaobao said clearly. "We met your territory by chance. Our goal is to reach the Central Palace, where we have some tasks to be completed. We happen to be illegally invading. We apologize and hope that you can live a peaceful life now." Yan Xiaobao sighed and bowed slightly to the little girl.
The girl was shocked to see his behavior, but she quickly pulled herself together and nodded. "In this case, we won't bother you anymore." She said, as she turned around and made several gestures with her hands. In front of Yan Xiaobao and others, all the laws slowly disappeared from sight and returned to the protection of the Sunset Mountains.
Seeing the law disappear, Yan Xiaobao couldn't help but recall the many days he had experienced in the Holy Dungeon. Looking at the law, Yan Xiaobao felt a strange energy around him. He couldn't help but recall that they were lying again and again, waiting to be killed again and again.
Seeing them again today, it was obvious that they had changed. In the past, Yan Xiaobao encountered the law with gentleness and kindness; however, the people he saw today were alert and hostile to humans. Thinking of this Yan Xiaobao, you cannot miss them. After experiencing what they did, it was natural that they found their own refuge in the vast sunset mountains.
"We have two or three days to travel before we reach the Central Palace." Deng Wu said as he looked around and then continued on. Although they comply with the law, they had no time to accompany them. They could not delay at all, and their excitement was obvious when they closed in the Central Palace.
The next few days were blurred, and finally, they reached the top of the mountain range. After reaching the peak, they continued to move eastward, getting closer and closer to the Central Palace. On the third day, they finally saw the two towers of the palace.
Unfortunately, they also found this part of the Sunset Mountains full of experts guarding the area.
