The sudden sound woke up all the mercenaries who were recovering, and when they saw the cluster of arrows inserted in the broken wood, their faces couldn't help but change, if this was directly nailed to them, I am afraid that they would be seriously injured if they did not die.

Turning to look at Lin Yun's gaze, he couldn't help but be a little more grateful.

"What's going on?"

The guards of the Xia family also rushed over, looking at the tree trunk lying on the ground, a little puzzled.

"Someone sneak attacked, thanks to Brother Lin's quick response, otherwise there would have been many casualties. A middle-aged mercenary from the Eightfold Spirit Gathering Realm stood up and told him what had happened before.

Hearing what the middle-aged mercenary said, the Xia family guards also changed their faces slightly, if it was a demon beast attack, it would be easy to say, it was inevitable in the Gods and Demons Ridge.

But this time someone secretly attacked, which is more dangerous, it seems that someone deliberately targeted their Xia family.

At this time, Xia Tingting also walked out of the convoy, and glanced at the young man standing on the treetop without a trace, and flashed a touch of surprise.

"Are you okay, everyone?" looked back, and Xia Tingting's soft crisp voice sounded in the convoy.

The whole team looked at it in unison, looking at the girl who did not have the slightest impurity in her smile, and everyone shook their heads.

A moment later, Lin Yun fell from the treetops, looked at Xia Tingting who was looking at her, shrugged helplessly, and said, "They are very fast, and after an arrow is fired, they will immediately retreat, this kind of assassination quality should be specially trained." ”

Hearing Lin Yun's words, the mercenaries around him trembled, if they were to fight head-on, they might not be afraid, but if they let go of the cold arrow, they would be a little unbearable, plus in this God and Demon Ridge, they need to defend themselves against the attacks of various demon beasts, this is simply an extremely difficult task to complete.

Xia Tingting nodded slightly, looked at the middle-aged man behind her, and said, "Uncle Ye, what do you think?"

The middle-aged man walked over to the broken trunk, took off one of the arrows from it, put it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Feeling the strong spiritual power fluctuations on the middle-aged man's body, Lin Yun didn't react much, after all, a beautiful woman like Xia Tingting couldn't say anything if she didn't have a powerful existence around her.

"I'm not sure, although there is residual spiritual power on this arrow, but if you want to use the method of tracking spiritual power to know the identity of the user, this spiritual power is still not enough. After a moment, the middle-aged man shook his head and put the arrow back.

"Doesn't that mean we have to be on the lookout for their sneak attacks?"

Hearing what the middle-aged man said, the mercenaries around him were suddenly a little vague, after all, they were just mercenaries, not dead soldiers, and if they were to pay for this, this was what they didn't want.

As if sensing the changes in everyone, Xia Tingting frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "The current situation is indeed a bit dangerous, if you are not willing to continue to move forward, you can put it forward, our Xia family will respect your choice." ”

As soon as Xia Tingting's words came out, some mercenaries were a little ashamed, but compared to these, their lives were still important.

"Miss Xia, I'm sorry. ”

A young man in his early twenties walked out, arched his hand at Xia Tingting, and then walked back.

With the lead, more than ten people left one after another, including a few people who were injured in the previous battle, for these people who left halfway, the Xia family was also extremely humane, and gave them the deposit that had been said before.

The originally huge team, after the withdrawal of these people, instantly became a lot more deserted, but at this moment, most of the people who were willing to stay here were some mercenaries whose strength had reached the eightfold level of the Gathering Spirit Realm, plus the original guards of the Xia family, although the number was small, but they were all elites.

After resting for a while, the Xia family and his party continued on the road, this time Lin Yun was not as leisurely as before, but cautious, if he hadn't reacted quickly last time, that arrow would have been unbearable even for him.

The team walked less than 800 meters before everyone was attacked by the demon beast again.

The three-headed second-order demon-eye snake hung on the trunk of the tree, and taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the people below, like lightning, it was very easy to inject fire poison into the bodies of the three mercenaries, and suddenly, the three men with fiery faces scorched and softened all over their bodies.

Attacked again, everyone immediately shot out angrily, and in a moment, the three-headed second-order demon eye snake was beaten to death by everyone, and after killing the three-headed second-order demon beast, they did not find the beast core from their bodies, and in this regard, the mercenaries only sighed slightly and did not say anything.

Killing demon beasts in the wild, the chance of a beast core appearing is extremely small, and it is often a great price to pay, and you may not necessarily get a beast core.

After walking out of the half-day journey, the frequency of demon beasts appearing more and more, although it is not to the point of one demon beast at a time, but it is almost the same.

"Uncle Ye, do you feel that the frequency of this demon beast is a little wrong?"

In the team, Xia Tingting's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, she hadn't walked through the Gods and Demons Ridge a hundred times, but she had more than ten times, and this time the frequency of demon beasts was too frequent, so frequent that people didn't dare to relax.

If there is nothing strange in it, no one will believe it.

"It seems that the matter of the Divine Dragon Liquid has been known by several other major families, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of dangers along the way. The middle-aged man sighed with emotion, looked into the distance, and couldn't help but feel a touch of coldness.

Divine Dragon Liquid, a cultivation resource that is rare to see for thousands of years, this spiritual liquid can only be derived from places that have been nourished by dragon qi all year round.

If it can be refined into medicine or directly refined, it will undoubtedly have the effect of rebirth for the monk, and if you are lucky, you can also collect the dragon qi in it into the body, forming a faint dragon power.

Once this kind of thing is refined, it will follow it for the rest of its life, which will be of great help to break through the Five Great Heavenly Realms in the future.

And this time, the reason why the Xia family wanted to return to the Northern Regions in such a hurry was to send this divine dragon liquid back, such a rare spiritual liquid, before it arrived at the Xia family, it was like a hot potato, and it was still not allowed to stay.

"It will take at least a month to reach the Northern Regions from here, even if there is a strong person in the family to pick it up, I'm afraid it will be more than ten days later, you must be more careful during this time, if you really can't avoid it, Miss, you will take the dragon liquid and go first." The middle-aged man looked at Xia Tingting solemnly and admonished.

Whether it is Shenlong Liquid or Xia Tingting, they are all innocent existences of the Xia family, they can die in battle, but Xia Tingting and Shenlong Liquid must return to the Xia family, this is the death order given by the elders of the Xia family before leaving......
