"No, it's been here during the day!"

The man in black in the middle noticed the bloodstains left by the bloodthirsty and poisonous wolf on the ground, as well as the sword marks left by Lu Chengfeng when he chased and killed it, and immediately cried out. As soon as he said this, several other men in black immediately dispersed, looking for traces nearby. Soon, they discovered Lu Chengfeng's main battlefield with the bloodthirsty and poisonous wolf before, and followed the trail to find the corpse of the demonic beast hanging by Lu Chengfeng in the center of the ruins.

"What do you think of Chief Wu?" asked a man on the left who had already drawn his weapon gloomily.

The black-clothed man in the middle, who was called Master Wu, thought for a moment and said his inference: "Judging from the arrangement, there should be some need to hunt the demonic beasts, not like they have discovered us." Otherwise, the man would not have left such a shadowy trace. As for the strength of the other party, if he can release his sword qi and kill the bloodthirsty poisonous wolf, he should be a fourth-order swordsman!"

The man on the left nodded, and then asked, "Then what should we do?" If that person is still in the poisonous ruins and hasn't left, will he have already discovered us?"

A trace of murderous intent flashed in Chief Wu's eyes under his cloak, and he said coldly: "It took us so long to secretly arrange the new lair, and we must not leak it out so easily." Third, you go and call a few more people. Others, search with me. If the man had already left, if he had already left, if he had found out, he would ...... You know what to do! Our cooperation with those cultists will not see the light of day, so any accident will be nipped in the bud. As he spoke, he made a downward slash with his left hand.

"Yes!"

Several men whispered in response and quickly dispersed.

Lu Chengfeng didn't hear their last conversation, but when he saw that these people came back after leaving, they began to search around, and roughly guessed that the other party might have found themselves here. Judging from this posture, most of these men in black are doing something unseemly. In doing so, dividing the yin is suspected of extinguishing the mouth!

Extinguish the mouth?

Lu Chengfeng sneered in his heart, he didn't expect him to come to the poisonous ruins, and he actually found something interesting here. When I get back, I might as well consider gathering information here.

Because he didn't know the strength of his opponents, and he didn't know if they had more helpers here, Lu Chengfeng didn't have the idea of contacting them. With the help of the gap in the other party's search, Lu Chengfeng skillfully covered his tracks and quietly retreated to the outermost corner of the ruined town. Not only is this position easy to ignore, but even if he is discovered, he can quickly retreat to the forest. At that time, if these people still dare to disperse the pursuit, Lu Chengfeng will be unkind.

I have to say that these men in black still have some material.

Not long after Lu Chengfeng withdrew from his original hiding place, a man in black lowered his voice and issued a warning. Then, more than a dozen black-clothed people quickly surrounded him, and then chased all the way towards Lu Chengfeng's location through some unknown tracking method.

"Good Fellow......"

Lu Chengfeng didn't expect that there would be so many people, frowned, and immediately chose to leave.

Fortunately, the poisonous mist of the poisonous ruins helped a lot. Even those in black who were very familiar with the neighborhood couldn't do anything with the poisonous mist. With the help of the cover of this fog, Lu Chengfeng quickly retreated into the forest. After those black-clothed people continued to chase for a period of fruitless time, they probably knew that there was no hope, and Yin Zhi chose to withdraw.

After such a hide-and-seek past, it was almost four o'clock in the morning. For the sake of safety, Lu Chengfeng waited in the forest until it was almost overcast, and then set off to return to Kaiyang.

The journey was fairly smooth, but the weather today looked a little hazy.

Not far from the ruins of the fierce poison, it suddenly rained heavily in Kaiyang City. Lu Chengfeng could only take out the rain coat from the space bag and change it temporarily, but in the wet forest and heavy rain, the effect of the coat was very unpleasant. If he can reach the sixth order, initially form a Dou Qi armor, and the Dou Qi can be released to protect his whole body, he will not have to worry about heavy rain at all.

Of course, at that stage, it is still a bit far for the current Lu Chengfeng!

After a few complaints, just as he was about to return to Kaiyang, light footsteps came from the rain curtain that was getting bigger and bigger. Lu Chengfeng followed the sound and looked over, and when the distance was closer, he suddenly found an elemental mage who was a little short, wearing an ice-blue silver silk robe, holding an ice crystal staff, and wearing a veil on his face. Her face was unclear, but it was vaguely confirmed that it was a woman.

At this moment, her abundant magic power formed a magical shield around her body, and all the water droplets were bounced away as soon as they got closer.

This is actually an elemental mage who is at the peak of the fourth order and specializes in the ice system!

This strength itself is nothing, but the magic robes on her body, the magic ornaments and magic staff in her hands made Lu Chengfeng a little surprised. With his eyes, he could naturally see that this woman had at least three or four pieces of rare-level magical equipment on her. Each of these pieces of equipment is worth a lot of money. With such an equipment bonus, this powerful ice technique was enough to compete with any fifth-order master.

Even if Lu Chengfeng is facing her now, he may not be able to take too much advantage, because her magic power is enough to completely suppress it.

It's really rich!

When Lu Chengfeng looked at her, the ice method also glanced at Lu Chengfeng. However, unlike Lu Chengfeng's surprise, this Bingfa obviously didn't see anything of interest. So, after a faint glance, he calmly staggered by.

It's just a small episode on the way.

In Kaiyang City, where there are many masters, the masters of the sixth and seventh orders can often be seen. Although the eighth-order powerhouse is rare, he may be able to bump into one at any time. A fourth-order pinnacle ice method would not move Lu Chengfeng. The only thing he was curious about was the luxurious equipment of the ice method. can have such equipment when he was in the fourth order, and it is estimated that there is also a mage family behind that mage to support it.

It would be difficult to do this if it was an individual effort, after all, the cultivation of a mage was more expensive than that of a swordsman.

Next, after finding Sinda with the corpse of the bloodthirsty and poisonous wolf, Lu Chengfeng completed the agreement. After initially establishing contact with this forging master, Lu Chengfeng thought about it and came to the mercenary union again to begin to collect information related to the poisonous ruins. After all, the extermination of those black-clothed people has revealed that there is something invisible in the ruins.

It doesn't matter if you don't investigate, as soon as you investigate, Lu Chengfeng really found something.

Before that, at the beginning of last year to be precise, although the poisonous ruins were dangerous, there were still mercenaries coming in and out from time to time. Of course, there will inevitably be people who will lose it inside, but there is still news coming out. From last year to this year, the ruins of the poisonous poison seem to have become dangerous, and rumors of dead people have appeared one after another. Over time, it seemed that no one was going in or out of the country anymore.

At first glance, it doesn't seem like much, after all, the poisonous ruins are also the most dangerous area near Kaiyang City. If you go in and take risks, it's normal for a few people to die. But after seeing the man in black with his own eyes, no matter how stupid he is, he can know that there is a problem inside. It's just that Lu Chengfeng didn't have the impulse to investigate again, there are many dark corners on the mainland, and he doesn't have the ability to do it one by one and doesn't have so much spare time.

The most important thing is to do your own thing.

Of course, Lu Chengfeng did not forget to write down his experience and inferences, and then threw them into the anonymous information box specially set up by the mercenary union. This has only become popular in recent decades, and if some mercenaries have investigated something, but are unwilling to show up in person, they can put the news in it. Every half day, the mercenary guild will clean up. As for whether the discovered matter should be handled by oneself or transferred to the corresponding organization of the Lanwu Empire, that is the business of the trade union.

After finding some unhappiness for the black-clothed people who were chasing and killing him, Lu Chengfeng returned to his hotel satisfied. But what he didn't expect was that there were already two people waiting for him here in advance.

After being told the news by the people in the hotel, Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but be surprised.

If it is in the current Tian Yuan Empire, that is, the place where the predecessor lived before, it is understandable that there are acquaintances looking for it. But this is the Lanwu Empire, and I am not familiar with life. After Lu Chengfeng came, he didn't make friends with anyone except Xu Yinjie, how could two people come to him?

With some doubts, Lu Chengfeng returned to his small courtyard.

The people who wanted to meet him were two men dressed as mercenaries. One of them was only a third-order in strength, and he looked a little fine, but he didn't have the calmness that a swordsman should have. Lu Chengfeng only glanced at him, then ignored this guy and turned to look at the main master.

Compared to the errand runner, this man in his forties is a bit extraordinary.

He was carrying a one-meter-and-a-half long giant sword behind his back, and there was an oblique scar on his face, which looked crooked and scary, but it added a bit of ferocious momentum to him. Since he only wore a short shirt on his upper body, the exposed muscles looked full of strength and were not easy to mess with. Lu Chengfeng looked at the yin, this is a fifth-order sword master!

This guy is definitely not inferior to Wang Xuan, who was hired on the Tianhong at that time.

At this moment, seeing Lu Chengfeng walking straight towards him, this fifth-order sword master realized something, glanced at him coldly, and asked with a bit of scrutiny, "Your Excellency is Wang Feng?"

Wang Feng?

Lu Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the other party was talking about the name of his predecessor.

This man has looked into himself!

The other party's attitude of no kindness made Lu Chengfeng's heart ripple, but his face did not change. Considering that the rank gap between the two sides was placed there, even though Lu Chengfeng was not afraid of him, he still said in a friendly tone: "I am Wang Feng, do you have anything to do with me?"
