Just when Chen Ning and a group of people left Tianyong City, thousands of miles away in Huangge City, the Xiao family, in the spacious meeting hall, Xiao Yun, the head of the Xiao family, was in the first place, and below him, there were more than a dozen young people kneeling.

"Tell the head of the family, we have found out that it is these dozen people who offended Chen Ning's son." A burly middle-aged man arched his hand and said to the head of the Xiao family.

Xiao Yun, the head of the Xiao family, stared at the dozen or so people below with a gloomy face, and his fierce gaze made the dozen or so young people not even dare to look at him.

"The head of the family spares his life, the head of the family spares his life, we don't know that person is from Ouyang Mansion, we just saw a girl in a mountain village who was beautiful, and wanted her to enter the Xiao family to dress the eldest young master, we are all thinking about the eldest young master."

"The head of the family spares his life, the head of the family spares his life, we will never dare to do this next time......"

"Head of the house, please give us a chance, let us go......"

More than a dozen young people also knew that they had fallen into a catastrophe, and knelt there one by one and begged for mercy.

Xiao Yun snorted coldly and said, "Drag them out and break their legs for me." ”

"Yes!" The middle-aged man replied, and then immediately called several guards to drag the dozen or so young men out and break their legs.

"Tie them up, bring heavy gifts, and let's go to that mountain village together to make amends to those villagers." The head of the Xiao family commanded again. The dignified head of the Xiao family personally went to the countryside to make amends to the villagers living in the mountain village, which is enough to prove that the head of the Xiao family attaches great importance to this matter.

……

The Zongheng Mountain Range is the largest Demon Beast Mountain Range on the Xuantian Continent, traversing the entire continent and almost dividing the Xuantian Continent into two, covering an extremely vast area.

In the vertical and horizontal mountain ranges, there are countless demon beasts that live, this is the paradise of demon beasts, the concentration of demon beasts, and most of the fifth-order demon beasts on the Xuantian Continent are concentrated here, and only a small number of fifth-order demon beasts survive outside.

And there is also a legend circulating on the Xuantian Continent, in the depths of the Zongheng Mountain Range, not only a large number of fifth-order demon beasts live, but even many sixth-order demon beasts that have manifested into human form, which is a forbidden area for human beings, and none of the human powerhouses who enter the depths of the Zongheng Mountain Range can come out alive.

Therefore, the depths of the vertical and horizontal mountain range have become a forbidden area in the minds of all human beings thousands of years ago, and even the powerhouses of the Xuanwang realm will never dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

And at this moment, in the depths of the vertical and horizontal mountains, there is a middle-aged man who is three meters tall and naked, the middle-aged man is burly, his upper body naked in the sun is embroidered with a layer of golden lines, the bronze muscles are large and bulging high, very developed, and on his lower body, he is only wearing a pair of shorts that can only cover his knees, and his feet are bare.

The middle-aged man's hands naturally drooped, and he was standing here with a hesitant expression, the light in his eyes flickering, as if he was making up his mind. And where he stood, it was the border between the depths of the mountains and the outside world.

"In the depths of the Zongheng Mountain Range, this king has searched all over, there is no breath of the Heaven and Earth Divine Tiger at all, even the breath of Guinness has disappeared, it seems that Guinness has already left the depths of the Zongheng Mountain Range with the Heaven and Earth Divine Tiger and went to the territory of humans, if you want to kill the Heaven and Earth Divine Tiger, you can only step into the territory of humans." The middle-aged man stood there muttering to himself, his brows furrowed tightly.

"Guinness has violated the treaty we made with the human race back then, should I release the news and let the human powerhouse take action against her?" The middle-aged man pondered, but then shook his head and said; "No, this matter involves the ancient divine beast Heaven and Earth Divine Tiger, the stakes are very high, and the human strong must not be let know, otherwise, once the human strong man tames it in the infancy of the Heaven and Earth Divine Tiger, it will definitely be a huge disaster for my demon beast clan in the future, it seems that the Heaven and Earth Divine Tiger must not stay in the human territory for a long time, and must be killed as soon as possible, but once I step into the human territory...."Saying this, the middle-aged man's voice gradually disappeared, and his eyes showed a deep look of jealousy.

After a while, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed, and the light shot from his eyes made the void in front of him tremble, and he seemed to have finally made up his mind, and said in a low voice: "The human powerhouses are almost hidden, as long as I hide carefully, they will definitely not find me." As he spoke, the middle-aged man stepped forward suddenly, crossing the boundary between the vertical and horizontal mountains and the outside world, and then his body shook slightly, and he had already shot forward at an incredible speed, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

……

Two days later, in the border fortress of the Xiongnu Kingdom, a team of mercenaries escorted a large number of goods into the carriage slowly drove into the fortress, and in the crowd, seven third-order demon beast mounts walked side by side, following the flow of people slowly and slowly, and on the monster mounts, there were six men and one woman sitting respectively, although some people were dressed plainly, but they were magnificent, and they were not ordinary people at a glance, so that the people around them did not dare to get too close to them, and they were all far away, for fear of accidentally offending these people who knew that their identities were not simple at a glance.

After two days of trekking, Chen Ning and the others finally came to the Xiongnu Kingdom, and after entering the territory of the kingdom, Chen Ning and the others did not stop at all, and kept hurrying all the way to Taoliu City.

The third-order demon beast was running at a very fast speed on the land, trampling on the rolling yellow dust along the way, and from a distance, it looked like an earth dragon.

In this way, more than half a day's journey passed, and finally when the moon set in the western mountains, Chen Ning and the others finally arrived at Wacker City, at this moment the hour has come to the evening, the sky is a gray color, and the first line of residence in the distance, the fiery red sun has only left a small half of his face outside, but it still radiates a thousand feet of red glow, reflecting the small half of the sky.

At the wide gate of Taoliu City, there were very few people coming in and out, and there were only a dozen tired soldiers guarding the city gate.

Chen Ning and the others rode the demon beast mount and slowly approached Peach Willow City at the speed of walking, looking at the city wall of Peach Willow City that had become scarred by the attack of the demon beast, the expression on Chen Ning's face also became complicated, and there was a bit of nostalgia in his eyes.

Taoliu City, although it is a small third-level city, but here, it has left Chen Ning's hard work and efforts, here, Chen Ning has left too many profound memories, leaving behind the memory fragments that he has grown up step by step.

Several of them also looked at the somewhat old city walls of Peach Willow City with curious expressions, and Che Guevara suddenly spoke: "Chen Ning, your mercenary group won't stay in this city, right?" ”

Chen Ning nodded and said, "It used to be, but now it's been a long time, and I don't know if they're still in the city." ”

As he spoke, Chen Ning and the others had already entered the city, and then stopped a passer-by and asked, "Brother Tai, I don't know if the Black Panther Mercenary Group is still in Taoliu City." ”

"It's strange for you to ask, the Black Panther Mercenary Group has always been stationed in Peach Willow City, where will it be if it is not in Peach Willow City." The passerby stared at Chen Ning with a strange expression and said.

Hearing this, Chen Ning's face was overjoyed and said; "Great, I didn't expect the Black Panther Mercenary Group to be still in Taoliu City, I'm worried that it will move to another place to develop, this brother, I don't know where the exact location of the Black Panther Mercenary Group is."

"It's in the compound of the Kai family in the southwest." The passerby replied.

"Thank you very much!" Chen Ning bowed his hand at him, then turned over and rode on the third-order demon beast mount, and walked towards the Kai family with the six people according to the memories in their minds. 、

At this moment, outside the gate of the Kai family, a large group of burly men had gathered, standing there with murderous faces on their faces, and the number of people was about two hundred.

Opposite them, there were three middle-aged men and an old man, four of them standing side by side, lined up at the gate, through the gap between the four of them, you could vaguely see a large group of people gathered in the Kai family's compound, all with serious expressions and cold eyes.

"One-armed man, your anti-heaven mercenary group is really too deceitful, although the strength of my Black Panther mercenary group is not as strong as before, but it is not so easy to bully, believe it or not, before you destroy us, we can also let your anti-sky mercenary group suffer heavy losses." The old man standing at the gate stared sharply at the group of people opposite and said in a deep voice.

The middle-aged man standing at the front opposite, with only one right arm, sneered and said: "Black Panther Mercenary Group, if it was half a year ago, you still have the ability to compete with our Anti-Heaven Mercenary Group, but now, to be honest, my one-armed man really didn't take you seriously, if you don't want to die, you should obediently cooperate with us, and from now on you will be merged into our Anti-Heaven Mercenary Group, and our Anti-Heaven Mercenary Group will definitely not treat you badly." ”

"Hmph, just because you want to annex our Black Panther Mercenary Group, it's just a fool's dream, our brothers in the Black Panther Mercenary Group are not cowards who are greedy for life and afraid of death." A middle-aged man standing in front of the Kai family's compound said coldly.

"Arthur, my one-armed man knows that you are not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, you are a real man, I respect you as a one-armed man, but your Black Panther mercenary group can't fight our anti-sky mercenary group, it is better to merge into our anti-sky mercenary group, and grow the anti-sky mercenary group together in the future, once we become the first mercenary group of the Hun Kingdom, then you are a hero, and from now on you will enjoy endless glory and wealth, why not do it, you can't lose your life for this matter." The one-armed man laughed.

"Hmph, if it weren't for the absence of the leader of our Black Panther Mercenary Regiment, where would you still be able to tolerate your anti-heaven mercenary group to run rampant in Peach Willow City and drive you out early." Pang Hua gritted his teeth and said.

"The head of the Black Panther Mercenary Group, what you said about Chen Ning, I have heard of this person before, first destroyed the Zhou mercenary group and the Zhou family alone, and then destroyed the Pan family, the first family in Taoliu City, and finally showed his skills in the siege of demon beasts, and fought with fourth-order demon beasts, tsk, this strength is really good, so I have to admire the one-armed man."

Speaking of this, the one-armed man showed a mocking look in his eyes, and continued: "But it's a pity that your head of the regiment is not here, but went to Tianxia City to participate in the trial road conference two years ago, hmph, he is really an arrogant and arrogant boy, he doesn't know the height of the sky, relying on his own achievements in the small city of Taoliu City, he thinks that he is invincible in the world, and he even goes to the trial road conference without knowing whether he is alive or dead, you must know that even if it is a half-step Xuan King, he only has the ability to save his life, How could he participate in such a level of battle, he would have died in Tianxia City a long time ago, where would he come back! ”

The one-armed man's words made the faces of the four people standing in front of the gate of Kai's house change, and then Arthur immediately opened his mouth and shot back: "One-armed man, Xiu's nonsense, how strong our head is, how can you understand." ”

"Hehe, indeed, my one-armed man is just hearsay about Chen Ning's strength, what is his real strength, I haven't seen it yet, but one thing is certain, that is, he must not have reached the realm of the half-step Xuan King, and he wants to participate in the trial dao conference with such strength, hmph, I am really impatient, it just so happens that it is a long time before the end of the trial dao conference, if your Chen Ning head is still alive, then why hasn't he come back yet." The one-armed man sneered.

Seeing that the Kai family was silent, the one-armed man continued: "I think you already have the answer in your hearts, but you haven't dared to accept it, so let me announce this answer to everyone now, that is, your head has already died in Tianxia City, and he will never come back alive." ”

The one-armed man's words made the faces of the more than 100 members of the Black Panther Mercenary Group who stayed in Kai's house change, but they quickly calmed down.

Seeing this, the one-armed man shook his head in disappointment, he wanted to use this to demoralize the people of the Black Panther Mercenary Regiment, thus affecting their minds, but in the end he did not succeed.

But how could he understand that the more than 100 members of the Black Panther Mercenary Group in the Kai family's compound were all led by Pang Hua, Arthur, Guo Jia, Chaoyun, Wu Tian and other five great Xuan masters, as well as the head of the Kai family, Kyle, and the gas of the Dole family, in their hearts, these seven people are the leaders, as long as the seven people do not die, their confidence will not fall.

"One-armed man, you don't have to work in vain, our head is life and death, it's not up to you to decide, in a word, our Black Panther Mercenary Group will never merge into your Anti-Heaven Mercenary Group, if you insist on this, then there will be a war between us." Kyle said in a deep voice, although the strength of the Black Panther Mercenary Group is not as good as before, and it is also on the front line compared to the Celestial Mercenary Group, but if they fight, the final solution will only be a lose-lose situation.

The one-armed man's face sank, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I have already given you the opportunity, but you still don't cherish it, since this is the case, then don't blame me for the ruthlessness of the one-armed man, brothers, do it!" With the one-armed man's order, a group of big men standing behind him took out their weapons one after another.

"Brothers, do it!" Kyle and the others were not far behind, and at the same time issued an order to attack, but just as his words fell, in the courtyard of the Kai family, more than a dozen people immediately took out a jade bottle from the space belt at the same time, and fell directly to the ground, the jade bottle fell to the ground and shattered, and suddenly, a faint green smoke floated out from the broken jade bottle, and disappeared into the air in an instant.

The actions of these dozen people made the members of the Black Panther Mercenary Group standing around full of puzzlement, and they all stared at the dozen people with surprised expressions, not suspecting him at all.

Noticing the movement behind him, Arthur looked back, just in time to see a faint green smoke wafting out of the jade bottle and then gradually dissipating into the air, after being slightly stunned for a while, he came back to his senses in an instant, his face changed suddenly, and exclaimed: "Be careful of poison, everyone hold your breath." ”

"Hahaha, it's late, it's too late." Outside the gate of Kai's house, there was the unbridled laughter of the one-armed man.

"You ....." Wu Tian glared at the one-armed man angrily, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and the strong killing intent in his eyes was even more undisguised, and he gritted his teeth and said: "One-armed man, I thought you were a man, but I didn't expect to use this kind of indiscriminate means, I, Wu Tian, saw the wrong person." ”

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter what kind of means, let me tell you, as long as it is a means to win, it is a good means, if you want to survive on the Xuantian Continent, your brain must not be too rigid, otherwise, it is destined to not live long." The one-armed man laughed.

"Take the antidote! Kill these dozen traitors for me. Kyle immediately turned to the Black Panther mercenary group behind him.

Needless to say, when they learned that the smoke was poisonous, the members of the Black Panther Mercenary Regiment took out the antidote from their spatial belts and took it, and then immediately rushed towards the dozen or so traitors who threw the poisonous smoke, one by one with full of anger, and their eyes were full of strong killing intent.

However, just as they rushed out a few steps, their faces changed at the same time, and a muffled snort came out of their throats, and at the same time a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the poison in their bodies had already attacked.

Seeing this, Pang Hua, Arthur, Guo Jia, Chaoyun, and the faces of the four changed in unison, and they couldn't help but exclaim: "What a violent toxicity!" ”

The one-armed man smiled proudly and said: "Of course, this is a combination of poison that I bought from outside at a high price, not an ordinary poison, this combination poison is divided into two steps, the first step is called planting poison, planting poison is to leave a highly toxic seed in your body to lurk in your body, and then slowly grow, and take root in your body, step by step growth, and at the same time will not be noticed by you, and then, in a special way to trigger all the toxins planted in your body, The toxin attack is very violent, and the way to trigger the poison in your body is the smoke you just had. ”

"Actually, that kind of smoke is not poisonous smoke at all, they are just a trigger for the poison planted in your body, this smoke does not need to be inhaled at all, because as long as it is close to your body, it can cause the poison that has been buried in your body for a long time. And when the poison breaks out, it is also very ferocious, you can only last for two hours at most, and after two hours, you will die in Huangquan. ”

Speaking of this, the one-armed man smiled sinisterly and continued: "Another thing I forgot to tell you is that the antidote to this combination poison is not available in the world at all, so don't waste your efforts, you take those antidotes are just ordinary goods, they can only remove ordinary poisons, and they can't remove my combination poison at all." ”

"One-armed man, all this was planned by you, and you let these traitors poison our food a month ago!" Kyle said hatefully, his face was gloomy and terrifying, the toxins in his body had already begun to kick in, and a line of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Yes, but it's no wonder to me, who let you Black Panther Mercenary Group not submit to me, if you Black Panther Mercenary Group people submit to me as soon as possible, then nothing like this will happen today." The one-armed man said with a smile, then took out a palm-sized jade bottle from the space belt, and said: "Now you only have two hours, those who follow me prosper, and those who go against me die, you choose whether you live or die, the antidote, it's not much, first come, first served, it's over, it's gone." ”

Everyone in the Black Panther Mercenary Group fell silent, the toxins in their bodies were indeed very violent, and at this moment, everyone's faces became pale, and blood continued to flow from the corners of their mouths.

"One-armed man, you don't want to subdue us in this kind of indiscriminate way, my Arthur will not let you have a good time even if I fight for this life." Arthur let out a loud cry and wanted to rush forward with his weapon, but as soon as he moved, he let out a muffled snort, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his body.

"I advise you not to use the power of the Xuan in your body, it will only make the speed explode faster and hasten your death." The one-armed man said with a smug expression.

He immediately looked behind him and said loudly: "While the toxin has not completely invaded the heart, if you want to live, you should come out and surrender as soon as possible, and surrender to our anti-heaven mercenary group, otherwise, in one night, when the toxin completely invades the heart, even if I have an antidote, there is no way to return to the sky, and the number of antidotes is limited, first come, first served, and then it will be per serving." ”

After a while, there were finally some mercenaries in the Kai family compound who didn't want to die like this, and walked out of the Kai family compound one after another.

Watching these people leave, Kyle and the others just sighed secretly in their hearts, and did not blame them.

As they walked out of the Kai family's compound, more and more people from the Black Panther Mercenary Group chose to surrender to the Anti-Heaven Mercenary Group in order to survive, and in the end, the Black Panther Mercenary Group, which originally had more than a hundred members, was left with only sixty or so people left.

The one-armed man looked at the four Kyles, and said with a smile: "Pang Hua, Arthur, Guo Jia, Chaoyun, Wu Tian, how are you thinking about it, there are not many antidotes, if the four of you are willing to join my anti-heaven mercenary group, then the treatment will definitely not be low." ”

"If you want the four of us to join, you really don't have the ability to do this with your one-armed man's ability." Arthur looked at the one-armed man with disdain.

Charles slowly raised the giant sword in his hand, turned to look at the more than sixty pale brothers behind him, and said proudly: "Brothers, I, Charles, am proud of you, you are real men, iron-clad men, brothers, death, is not terrible, since the left and right are death, then take up our weapons and defend our dignity, even if it is death, we will die vigorously, even if it is death, we will pull a few cushions, It definitely won't be so cheap, a bunch of crumbs from the Celestial Mercenary Group! ”

Wu Tian also raised the long sword in his hand, burst into the clouds, and said loudly: "Brothers, let's fight side by side for the last time!" ”

"Fight! War! War! Dozens of members of the Black Panther Mercenary Group in the Kai family's compound let out a heaven-shattering echo in unison, responding to the words of Wu Tian and Arthur, although everyone was pale and had blood stains on the corners of their mouths, their eyes were extremely firm, full of a spirit of fearlessness of death, and they had put life and death aside.

Seeing this scene, the one-armed man's face sank, and he snorted coldly: "Since you want to die, then I will fulfill you, kill, and leave no one!" ”

A group of big men standing behind the one-armed man rushed towards the Kai family's compound at the same time with a fierce beast with a murderous aura.

However, at this moment, a fiery red light flashed away, and I saw a long sword burning with flames flying from the end of the street at an incredibly fast speed, and instantly came to the gate of the Kai family, and then shot on the ground with a "boom", and a powerful wave of qi erupted, turning the members of the anti-heaven mercenary group who rushed towards the Kai family on their backs.
