Chapter 14: Surprise Encounter!
"Roar!" In the dense forest, Li Yan was fighting with a one-horned buffalo, only to see Li Yan punch out, powerful like a volcanic eruption, a punch hit the head of the one-horned buffalo, directly hit its huge head on the ground, the one-horned buffalo immediately bled from seven holes, the head bones were shattered, and he couldn't die anymore.
"Hey, it seems that if you want to improve again, you can only go to the black bear, this time you must chop off its bear paws and roast it to eat. Thinking like this, Li Yan immediately galloped towards the deeper dense forest.
After Li Yan broke through the eightfold body refining realm, another half a month passed, and in this half a month, Li Yan had already walked through the dense forest within a radius of hundreds of miles, along the way, Li Yan didn't know how many large and small beasts he had encountered, but among these fierce beasts, none of them could only be compared with the black bear he had encountered before, just like the one-horned buffalo that Li Yan had just killed, it also had a powerful strength equivalent to the ninefold of the body refining realm, but Li Yan felt that its combat power was still weaker than that black bear, Li Yan suspected that the black bear should have broken through the boundary of the beast and transformed into a demon beastγ
"Whew!!!" After walking not far, Li Yan suddenly stopped, and immediately, there was a sudden sound in the bushes on the left, and then a huge insect quickly rushed out of the bushes, and bit Li Yan's head with a bloody mouth.
"Huh!" Li Yan dodged the big insect's mouth sideways, and then kicked his feet and jumped backwards quickly.
"Roar!" Seeing Li Yan retreating, the big insect didn't let him go at all, let out a long howl, and then pounced towards Li Yan.
"Brute, look at me as a bully, isn't it!" Seeing that this big insect was chasing after him, Li Yan was suddenly furious, this was just an ordinary big worm, Li Yan didn't want to pay attention to it, but now Li Yan was really angry.
"Boom!" Li Yan blasted out, hitting the head of the big insect, Li Yan didn't spare his hand with this punch, and immediately hit its head to pieces, and it couldn't die anymore.
"Whew!" As soon as he walked out, another violent roar came into Li Yan's ears, and not long after, a black bear with a height of one foot rushed out of the dense forest, and after seeing Li Yan, he rushed towards him without hesitation.
"Hey, isn't this the black bear? Why did he come here on his own, and I went to find it. Looking at the violent bear rushing towards him, Li Yan's eyes couldn't help but light up, and then rushed towards the violent bear.
At this moment, the black bear suddenly let out a miserable cry, and the next moment, a sound of broken bones immediately erupted from the black bear, and then fell to the ground.
"Uh, what's the situation?" Li Yan looked at the black bear that fell to the ground motionless, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, why did it die before he could do it?
"Is it really dead?" Li Yan came to the black bear's side, checked it, and found that it was really dead, which made Li Yan even more puzzled, "How did it die?"
"Huh, what is this?" Li Yan suddenly found that the black bear was holding a vine in his hand, Li Yan walked over and pulled the vine out of the black bear's hand, and found that there was a vermilion fruit growing on it.
"Hurry up, that beast is here!" Suddenly, there was a noisy sound in the distance, and then the cries of several humans reached Li Yan's ears, Li Yan was startled, and immediately found a hidden place to hide.
"Found it!" After a while, several figures came out of the dense forest, a total of four people, three men and one woman, after they found the body of the black bear, they immediately cheered, and then rummaged through the corpse of the black bear.
"No, how could it be, I saw that the vermilion fruit was taken away by this beast, how could it not!" After the four of them rummaged through the black bear's carcass for a while, the woman immediately screamed.
"Could it be that he ate it before he died?" said the other, thinking for a moment.
"It's possible, this beast just transformed into a demon beast a few days ago, has opened its spiritual intelligence, has not weak wisdom, it must understand that it can't escape from us today, and knows that it can't escape death, so it ate the vermilion fruit before it died, and death will not be left to us. Another man spoke.
"What should we do then? If Zhu Guo is really eaten by it, then we won't be working in vain. The woman said again.
"Let's bring its corpse back, this beast just died not long ago, if the vermilion fruit was really eaten by it before it died, the medicinal power should not have been digested now, we ate its flesh, drank its blood, and should still be able to absorb some of the medicinal power." The man at the head groaned for a moment and said to the other three.
"Okay, let's do it!" said the three men, and together they lifted the black bear's huge body, and the group of four left.
After the group left, Li Yan walked out of a hidden bush, looked at the place where they left, and lamented: "Hey, these days, people are more ruthless than beasts!"
"Hmph, sure enough, someone is here!" Suddenly, four figures walked out of the dense forest, looked at Li Yan, and said in a cold voice: "Boy, did you take the Zhu Guo on the black bear just now?" β
Li Yan didn't expect these people to go and return, his face immediately became ugly, and then he asked in a deep voice, "How do you know that I am here?"
"Because the footprints you left behind have not been cleaned up!" replied the man at the head in a cold voice, this man looked to be about thirty-five or sixteen years old, and the other two men looked about the same age as him, only the woman looked younger, she only looked like she was twenty-five or sixteen years old, wearing a pink dress, and her face was heavily makeup, and she looked very bewitching.
"Footprints?" Li Yan heard this, and looked at the place where the black bear died before, and sure enough, there were a few unclear footprints left there, Li Yan could see that those footprints belonged to him, and at the same time, he also scolded himself in his heart, "It's good to run away immediately when you get something, you have to stay here to watch the excitement, now it's okay, even your life is about to die." β
"Then why did you say those things just now, and you also got rid of the carcass of that black bear?" Li Yan asked again.
"We only see footprints, and we're not sure if you're still around, so we're going to do a show, and if you're still here, we're going to let your guard down when you see that scene. The man explained, and then said impatiently: "Boy, don't talk nonsense, it's useless to delay time, with you as a small body refining realm martial artist, it is impossible to escape from under our noses, I advise you to obediently hand over Zhu Guo, I can also give you a good time, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin." β
Hearing the man's words, Li Yan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and then laughed and said: "Hahahaha, if you give it to you, it is also death, if you don't give it to you, do you think I will obediently hand it over to you?"
"You dare!" Hearing Li Yan's words, the faces of the four people on the opposite side changed, and at the same time they took a step forward, looking at his posture, as long as Li Yan dared to do this, they would definitely rush up, and then crush Li Yan's bones to ashes.
"Stop, if you dare to take a step forward, I will swallow it immediately!" Seeing their movements, Li Yan immediately snorted, and then put the Zhu Guo in his hand to his mouth, that posture, as if as long as they dared to take a step forward, he would dare to swallow it.
"Don't!" Seeing Li Yan's movements, the four of them immediately stopped and shouted in unison: "Don't be impulsive, we have something to discuss." β
"That's right, little brother, as long as you hand over Zhu Guo to us, we can guarantee that we will never hurt you at all, how about it?" The woman among the four suddenly spoke, and said to Li Yan in a charming voice.
"What you said is true?" Hearing the woman's words, Li Yan immediately pretended to be moved, and at the same time, his mind was also quickly thinking of a way to get out.
"There is!" Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Li Yan's mind, and he said softly: "Maybe, take them to the place where those things live, maybe, I will have a chance to get out." β
