Su Wen's previous doubts were not unreasonable.

Even if he has an intractable grievance with the Xu family, Su Wen must admit that the Xu family is indeed very important to the defense of the country today.

Or more precisely, Xu Huanzhi is important for the entire defense of the country.

If it weren't for Xu Huanzhi's brilliant appearance like a comet more than twenty years ago, breaking through several realms in one day to achieve the position of a half-saint, which made the Tianlan Empire deeply fearful, I am afraid that the civil war of the human race would have started in advance.

From a certain point of view, Xu Huanzhi's deterrent power to the Tianlan Empire is not weaker than that of Shenmu Mountain.

Therefore, even if Xu Huanzhi broke into the mountain twice and colluded with Qingguo Huasheng to subvert Hongming Academy, Lu Yu still did not kill him, but imprisoned him.

Once the Xu family is in turmoil, the Wei Dynasty will be in chaos, so Emperor Tianlan has every reason to take this opportunity to send troops to the water.

Even if Su Wen is really the hope and future of the country as the Prime Minister said, but now he is just a servant after all, if the civil war really breaks out, with Su Wen's current strength, it is almost impossible to do anything, and he can't even take the lead!

It takes time to defend the country, and so does Su Wen.

Fortunately, at this moment, another more important thing happened for the Ten Kingdoms of the Terran Race, which saved the country from the storm, and also attracted the attention of Emperor Tianlan, who had no time to care about the civil strife of the country for the time being.

Because in the Lost Swamp, a sudden disaster broke out.

As early as two days ago, the academician of Hongming Academy had already embarked on the way home with the trial students, but if you look closely. You will find that there is one crucial person missing from the team.

Mu Xi.

Mu Xi did not leave with the large army, but chose to stay, because she had not found any trace of Tang Ji and the others.

For Mu Xi. What she promised Su Wen, she must do.

Of course, Mu Xi was not left alone in the Lost Swamp, along with her were Liang Shan and Uncle Hua.

It is precisely because of Uncle Hua's preservation that Academician Xie Li and the others can return with peace of mind, they can't let the academy students take risks in Zelin all the time, and the news of Xu Huanzhi's entry into the mountain has already come. Everyone was like an arrow, and they had no intention of looking for the only lost academy team.

So when Mu Xi proposed to part ways, he quickly got everyone's consent.

In addition, the elite of the Xu family led by the little marquis Xu Ke left earlier. Because Xu Ke received the news from Yicheng, he rushed to the Cangzhou Mansion of the Weiguo State non-stop.

The most surprising thing is that at the same time that Xu Ke left, Mr. Xun, who has always been mysterious, also said goodbye to Mu Xi. Disappear alone in the shadows of the jungle.

So the original mighty team was only left with Mu Xi, Liang Shan and Uncle Hua.

But for Mu Xi. If there are fewer people, it can speed up the speed of travel, and it will also be easier to avoid the prying eyes of some middle-level demon beasts with superior strength.

In just one day, the three of them had gone deep into the heart of the Lost Swamp, which was obviously more than a star and a half faster than before.

But at the same time, the three of them also became more cautious as they went, not to avoid the mysterious demon beasts, but because Uncle Hua had already realized that he was in the lost swamp at this time. It's definitely not just the three of them!

"These footprints are completely different from what we have found before, and there is no intention of concealing them at all. Roughly speaking, there are at least dozens or hundreds of people!" Liang Shan gave the final conclusion with his rich experience in surviving in the jungle, and his eyes were solemn.

Mu Xi was willing to stay, naturally because of Su Wen, while Liang Shan's reason was even simpler, because Tang Ji and Ye Yaoyi were originally members of the same group as him.

Hearing Liang Shan's analysis, Mu Xi's brows also furrowed slightly, and he said suspiciously: "Are there still people from Wushuang Academy and Tianlan Academy?"

A hint of deep meaning flashed in Uncle Hua's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "I'm afraid not, the people of Wushuang Academy have almost been wiped out, and even if there are still some fish left in Tianlan Academy, there will not be so many, judging from the neatness of these steps, it is more like a well-trained brigade like the elite of the Xu family, or ......."

Speaking of this, Uncle Hua's gaze at Mu Xi was a little more worried.

Mu Xi understood Uncle Hua's words, so she blurted out: "Holy Dao family." ”

A name suddenly flashed from Mu Xi's mind, she took a deep breath, her face became more cold, and she muttered three words.

"Ouyang Ke!"

Uncle Hua had obviously learned from Mu Xi's mouth about Ouyang Ke's bad intentions before, and nodded immediately: "I'm afraid that the Ouyang family hasn't died yet, so I want to be unfavorable to Miss!"

However, Mu Xi shook his head and said categorically: "It's not aimed at me, otherwise Ouyang Ke wouldn't have summoned people with such fanfare, they were probably looking for something else." ”

Liang Shan, who was on the side, heard this, and immediately said, "Could it be that they discovered the demon relics?"

Liang Shan's words immediately made Mu Xi's heart tremble, but she quickly calmed down and said, "In short, we still try to avoid these people as much as possible, and once we find Tang Ji, they will leave immediately!"

Uncle Hua nodded, and the three of them were about to set off, but suddenly heard a beast roar from afar.

"Wow!"

The longbow in Liang Shan's hand tightened, and he said urgently: "Mid-level demon beast!"

Uncle Hua's answer was even more accurate: "Iron Armor!"

According to the previous strategy of the three of them, once they encounter a middle-level demon beast in Zelin, they will naturally avoid it, and try not to start unnecessary battles, not to mention that the ironclad beast is a relatively powerful category of middle-level demon beasts, and it is only one step away from being able to advance to the storage of high-level demon beasts!

If it is an ironclad beast in its heyday, its attack power can even be comparable to that of a human bachelor!

However, Mu Xi did not choose to flee at the first time, but stood in place with a puzzled look, because she found something unusual.

Judging from the roar of the ironclad beast, the other party was at least a hundred feet away from the three of them, but Mu Xi clearly heard a burst of heavy and urgent footsteps rapidly approaching in the direction where she was, could it be that the ironclad beast was chasing some prey?

Mu Xi came from the Lesheng family, and her ability to hear and discern sounds was outstanding, so under her breathlessness, she soon heard more things.

For example, the sound of tree trunks breaking, the sound of the earth cracking, and the sound of insects and beasts fleeing, as if the ironclad beast was chasing a rampaging rhinoceros, or rather, a humanoid fortress.

And the reason why Mu Xi and the three of them appeared here was also to find the humanoid fortress.

So she paused, hoping her guess was correct.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, like thunder, which made Liang Shan's heart rise to his throat, but his hand holding the longbow was still steady, and the arrow was aimed at the dense pine forest.

The next moment, a tall figure jumped out of the forest first, more than two meters tall, and the body was covered with flesh all over the body, making this person look like a huge ball of meat.

And Mu Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he shouted: "Fatty!"

At this time, Tang Ji was soaked with sweat, his disc-like face was flushed, his body was covered with all kinds of stumps and rotten leaves, and the mud was splashed all over his body, and he escaped from a refugee who had fled from the war.

The pursuit battle that lasted for more than ten days really made Tang Ji's body improve considerably, but what made people helpless was that even so, his figure did not show any tendency to lose weight, but seemed to have become fatter.

Hearing Mu Xi's familiar voice, Tang Ji's footsteps couldn't help but pause, and then he squinted a pair of small eyes, and finally saw three familiar faces on the other side.

"Mu Xi!

Tang Ji's shout was full of excitement for the rest of his life, but he quickly came back to his senses, waved his hand, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Run!"

Soon, as Tang Ji ran out of the pine forest, Ye Yaoyi, Chai Nan and others also appeared one after another, but unfortunately, several other students of Ming Academy unfortunately fell behind on the way to escape, and they have become food for the iron armored beasts.

At this time, the bodies of the three of them were already on the verge of exhaustion, and even Chai Nan's steps began to become heavy, and the fatigue between his eyebrows gradually appeared.

And the culprit who caused this qiē was the ironclad beast that followed closely!

Seeing that Mu Xi was unmoved, Tang Ji suddenly became a little anxious, and hurriedly shouted again: "Run! Run!"

However, the next moment, Mu Xi appeared in front of Tang Ji, stopped him from continuing to flee, and said softly, "I finally found you." ”

Tang Ji was almost fainted, stretched out his hand and prepared to carry Mu Xi on his shoulder, and said urgently: "It's not like this time, that big guy is going to chase after him!"

Chai Nan was also a little out of breath at this moment, and pulled Ye Yaoyi to run to the two of them, and scolded angrily: "What are you doing!"

Mu Xi glanced at Chai Nan coldly, gently dodged Tang Ji's palm the size of a fan, and said, "It's just an ironclad beast, don't worry." ”

At this moment, Tang Ji and Chai Nan were both stunned, after this delay, the ironclad beast that was originally a hundred feet away had already caught up, and its roar was getting closer and closer.

"Wow!"

The next moment, a demon beast with red-eyed eyes jumped out of the forest, the leather armor on its body glowed with cold and cold, and it rushed towards everyone fiercely, however, at the same time, a pair of plain palms lightly pressed on the top of its head, so that it could not get closer than half a step!

In front of Mu Xi and the others, there was an extra figure, it was Uncle Hua.
