Chapter 97

It was getting late, and the remnant sun was like blood.

Twenty miles northwest of Yuyang City, on a hill.

This place already belongs to the realm of the Nine Underworld Mountains, and the towering trees cover the sky and the sun, but this hill is silent, and even the sound of insects can't be heard.

However,

At this moment, a gust of wind swept by, and several figures suddenly appeared out of thin air in the middle of the clearing in the forest.

These few glanced around, full of frustration, and the third child hesitated:

"Where are the people?"

Another person spoke: "Big brother, we seem to have lost people." But I saw that this kid was here, why did he disappear in the blink of an eye?"

Among them, the middle-aged man with a black scarf and a scar on his face frowned.

The third child endured it and said to Scarface: "Big brother, let's lose our target, how can we go back now." But the master told us to follow this man closely. ”

Suddenly-

Without warning, a black light shot out from among the trees, heading straight for the three of them.

Scarface's face changed, and he exclaimed, "Be careful!" As soon as the words fell, Scarface's plainclothes thunderously pushed the third child away, and he rolled to the side.

The black light missed, striking the half-man-thick trunk of the tree. Everyone looked at it, only to find that this black light was actually a strange black flame.

The black flames instantly swept through the entire towering tree, completely devouring it and dyeing it into a black fire tree.

The branches of the tree were constantly crackling and exploding as they burned, and after a few moments, the black flames dissipated, revealing the towering trees.

This green tree, which was still lush and green, was now pitch black. At this moment, a fresh breeze hit.

The entire tree instantly turned into black powder, dyeing the entire world black.

The three of them looked stunned in their eyes, and then turned into shock.

The towering ancient tree, which was more than ten meters high, was only slightly touched by this inconspicuous black flame, and then it was burned down, completely turned into dust, and even a complete and decent stump no longer existed.

What a destructive force!

The frightened third child still has palpitations at the moment, if it weren't for the eldest brother pushing himself, I'm afraid the fate of this tree would be his own!

The smoke and dust covered the sky and the sun, completely covering the three of them.

"Someone is sneaking up, cough cough!" The three of them immediately covered their mouths and noses, and gathered together with their heads and faces. They stand with their backs to each other and face outwards in a triangle, in the best defensive position. The mental power is tense to the extreme, locking the space around it.

The strength of this person has far exceeded their expectations!

Black ash is everywhere.

In the black ash, the silence around them was eerie, and they could even hear their own heartbeats. Scarface couldn't help but frown, "Did you see where he was?"

"No trace of him was found, what about you, the third child?"

The third child also shook his head, just as he was about to answer.

A cold voice sounded softly behind itself: "What are you looking for?"

Hearing this ghostly sound, Scarface's faces changed greatly, and their hearts instantly fell into the ice cellar.

I saw that the three of them were leaning against the vacuum area that formed a triangle, and a black-robed man appeared silently, as if this black-robed man appeared like this out of thin air.

In the peak state of the three of them holding their breath and concentrating with a high degree of mental concentration, the black-robed man successfully avoided everyone's eyes and ears and hid behind the three of them.

In addition to the shock, a thick ominousness rose in the hearts of the three of them.

If this man wanted to kill himself, I am afraid that he would have died many times.

The man was in a black robe and wearing a fox skin mask, and he did not move, gradually disappearing from the black ashes.

Chu Nan took half a step forward, and the dead leaves under his feet were trampled and made a creaking sound, and the three of them immediately retreated three steps back in fear.

Chu Nan grinned, and there was playfulness in his hoarse voice: "The three acquired realms also dare to follow me, let me say what are you good about?" ”

"Let's talk about it," Chu Nan didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, shook his black robe, and slapped the black ash off his body: "Who sent you here, what are you following me for?"

The reason why they didn't solve them on the spot was because Chu Nan felt that the three of them were not hostile to him, and if they wanted to rob him when they saw the wealth, they would have a chance to do it.

Second, he wanted to ask who was behind the scenes.

"I've seen my seniors. The three of them glanced at each other, bent down in gratitude, and then introduced: "The next three are the guards of the Liu family in Yuyang City, thank you for the grace of the predecessors not to kill." ”

"Don't be too busy thanking, I haven't said I won't kill you yet. Chu Nan frowned slightly.

What news does she want to tell me, and I only have a one-sided relationship with her, what news does she want to tell me?

"Tell me, what are you going to do with me. Chu Nan waited for the following without moving.

The Scarface man was stunned when he heard this, and his heart couldn't help but feel bitter, and his words were quite respectful: "The young master said that he was afraid that the senior Chu would not be familiar with the place when he first arrived, so he sent the next three people to come to the senior for you to order at will." ”

Who knew that Chu Nan immediately smiled coldly after hearing this, and said, "Do you think I will believe your words?"

It's a big joke, and they can come up with such a lame excuse.

Speaking of this, Chu Nan's tone suddenly became stern, his eyes narrowed, and he burst into tears: "Dare to play tricks in front of me?"

Chu Nan suddenly became angry, and the three of them were so frightened that they were jumped, and they were uneasy in their hearts.

This senior Chu has only seen the strength himself, if he lies in front of him again and angers him, the three of them will really explain here today.

Scarface kept beating drums in his heart, and his face kept changing.

Seeing this scene, Chu Nan believed in Fang Cai's conjecture even more, shook his head, his eyes became cold, and his words were full of threats: "It seems that you really don't die in the heart of the Yellow River." ”

Seeing Chu Nan's aggressiveness, the Scarface man looked panicked, and his heart began to panic.

He believed that if he didn't tell the truth again, this person would definitely not hesitate to kill him. He thought about it and finally decided that saving his life was the most important thing, and Scarface hurriedly said: "The seniors are happy and angry, and the juniors are not malicious. What he said was true, but—"

"It's just what, say it quickly!" Chu Nan no longer had the patience to consume it with them, and the internal force in his hand was flowing endlessly.

Seeing this scene, the Scarface man no longer dared to hide it, and hurriedly told all the truth: "The young master received news in the past few days, and you have been followed. Therefore, the young master sent the three juniors to protect you secretly, and instructed us not to disclose the news, and not to disturb you unless we had to. ”

"Huh. Chu Nan smiled noncommittally.

What are you kidding, if you want to tell me the news, why do you keep secretly following yourself and not showing up?

It must be Liu Lingsha who sent someone to follow him, and he also said that he protected me and planted the accusations on the head of others.

Chu Nan shook his head, his face was full of disbelief, and he sighed slightly: "Since you are bent on looking for death, then I will fulfill you!"

As the words fell, two black flames rose from Chu Nan's hands. The killing intent that rushed to the sky instantly enveloped the three of them.

The latter's face changed drastically, and his mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

Seeing Fang Cai's terrifying scene, they were now almost certain that this black-robed man must be an innate powerhouse, at least much stronger than themselves.

In the hands of this person, they don't want to run away, even if they can't even give birth to the ** who escaped!

The three of them knelt down in front of Chu Nan, and said with a frightened face: "Senior Chu, what the junior said is true, if there is half a lie, he will be hit by five thunders from the sky! ”

The three of them wept bitterly and begged for mercy, as if they were really frightened, and their expressions were not fake.

Could it be that what these people say is true?

Chu Nan was silent after hearing the words, thinking in his heart.

But if it's true, what does Liu Lingsha mean, is it reminding herself?

How did she know that someone was following her, and even if she knew, she had nothing to do with her, so why should she help herself.

Chu Nan couldn't figure out the strangeness for a while.

"Get up," Chu Nan waved his hand and said casually.

After hearing the amnesty, the three of them stood up gratefully and thanked them again and again, before they walked away at the ghost gate, and at this moment they were all wet with cold sweat behind them.

In front of such a strong person, but people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat. One sentence will let you live, or one sentence can condemn you to death.

It's definitely strength, the gap is too big, and they don't even have the slightest ability to resist.

"What else did you young master say?" Chu Nan asked again.

The crowd just shook their heads desperately. Chu Nan looked frightened when he saw them, and he was scared out of a cold sweat, giving him a few dares, and they didn't dare to lie anymore.

Chu Nan said impatiently: "Okay, get up." By the way, I will bring a message to your young master for me, and thank her for her kindness. Also, I don't like people stalking me, this time it's just your luck, you know? ”

As if they were about to be amnestied, the chickens nodded like rice, ran away, and disappeared into the forest after a while.

......

This matter Chu Nanquan regarded as a small episode and did not take it to heart.

With five thousand spirit stones, Chu Nan spent one thousand two hundred spirit stones to buy more than thirty Hui Yuan Dan. Another two thousand spirit stones were spent and twenty quenching pills were purchased.

Needless to say, the natural effect of the Quenching Pill can temper the body and enhance strength.

After taking the Hui Yuan Dan, he can quickly condense his internal force and improve the efficiency of meditation, which is much better than the spirit stone.

Although Chu Nan can refine these pills, the difficulty is that he has no prescription.

You must know that these elixir prescriptions are all created by the alchemist's lifelong efforts.

The alchemist is also a broom, even if it is a first-order prescription, they may not be willing to take it out, let alone a good elixir prescription.

Even if there are pills on the market, the price is extremely expensive, and most of them are first-class pill pills, which are completely chicken for Chu Nan. It's better to buy the finished product directly, which saves a lot of time.

All preparations were made, Chu Nan took his little senior sister and finally walked towards the forbidden place of the Fengyue Continent - Nine Stygian Mountain.

......

It was cold in the Nine Hells Mountain.

The mountains here are very different from other places, and countless towering trees are very dense and extraordinarily lush, and they are evergreen all year round, and they are a faint green as far as the eye can see.

The autumn wind hits, the forest sea rises and falls, and the waves are swirling.

But except for the occasional insect song and bird call, Chu Nan didn't see any trace of demon beasts all the way down, let alone demon beasts, even ordinary beasts didn't see it, and his heart became more and more strange.

Isn't this Nine Hells Mountain known as a million demon beasts, a forbidden place for human beings, how could it suddenly be so deserted?

On a cliff full of creepers.

Chu Nan turned his back to the cliff and sat in the shade of the tree with his eyes closed.

In the past few days, in order to quickly track down the traces of the third senior sister Ye Bing, Chu Nan and Xiao Xin have been urging them to hurry with their internal forces.

Xiao Xin had already started to complain, but she couldn't help it, so Chu Nan decided to rest for a while, and he took the opportunity to meditate and recover his internal strength.

In this dangerous situation, you must always keep yourself at the top of your condition.

"Little Senior Sister?" Chu Nan's first reaction after opening his eyes was to look around, and suddenly one head and two big. Full of helplessness.

Before resting, he told her to stay honestly, and it was only half an hour, and she disappeared again.

Chu Nan walked down the cliff, looking for her traces all the way.

Fortunately, although Xiao Xin is playful, she is also sensible, and she knows that the danger in the Nine Styx Mountains has not gone far. When Chu Nan found her, she was hiding behind the bluestone by the pond, and she didn't know who she was playing hide and seek.

Chu Nan walked over and patted her on the shoulder angrily: "Little senior sister, didn't I explain ......"

Hearing Chu Nan's voice, Xiao Xin's body stiffened suddenly, and then she turned around like lightning, raised her index finger and made a silent gesture to Chu Nan.

"Shh

"What's wrong?" Chu Nan saw that she kept looking behind the bluestone sneakily, and was also aroused, and curiously looked at the bluestone.

He actually found that there were seven or eight hidden figures hidden in the thorn bushes less than three feet away from him.

They held their breath and did not make a sound. The dense bushes concealed their bodies completely.

If it weren't for Chu Nan and the others behind them, they would definitely not be able to find it.

What surprised Chu Nan even more was that when he used his spiritual power to probe the past, he couldn't find the breath of these people at all, as if it didn't exist at all.

Then there is only one possibility - these seven or eight people are all innate powerhouses!

Chu Nan secretly asked, why did so many innate powerhouses suddenly appear in this Nine Hells Mountain!

Could it be that they are the rumored soul cultivators who are hiding in the Nine Underworld Mountains and specialize in hunting cultivators?

However, Chu Nan soon denied his idea again, and the number of soul cultivators was scarce, and he even had a fight with the alchemist.

Moreover, soul cultivators have always been alone, and looking at these seven or eight cultivators, they are all serving the same, and they should be people of the same force.

But what are these people trying to do here?

Chu Nan narrowed his eyes, and with a twist of thought, he mobilized the slightest internal force into his pupils.

The tiny capillaries at the corners of his eyes bulged out and were dyed pale blue.

At this time, Chu Nan's vision became clearer and clearer, and he looked through the bushes and looked at it, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

It turned out to be them!
