In the morning, the official road outside the town of Winter.

The sky was snowing heavily, and Winter Town was now covered in snow. Zhao An has lived in Huangzhou since he was a child, and he has never seen this kind of heavy snow. The snow is fluttering, and the natural scenery of Hokuriku Prefecture is unmistakable.

What would Xiao Yu be happy to be when she saw it? The beautiful scenery in front of him couldn't help but make Zhao An think of Xiao Yu and his father, and it had been a while since he left Ningling.

"Brother Zhao, they're here. ”

Song Lei's voice interrupted Zhao An's thoughts and pulled him back to reality. Zhao An responded and saw that it was the people who went to the frozen canyon with them who came, but why only two of the four people came.

Song Lei and Gao Mu stepped forward to talk to them, while Zhao An and Qiaoqiao watched from the side.

Seeing that only two people were present, Song Lei frowned and asked, "Why are there only two of you here, and the other two?"

It was the Seven Star Division and his party who cooperated with Zhao An and his party. Mo Qi replied quietly: "The two of them are not in a hurry, they left first with another group of people yesterday." ”

Gao Mu was a little annoyed and said, "Go first, aren't you dishonest? There are only two of you, how can you pass through the frozen canyon now." ”

Mo Qi replied: "Although those two people left early, the strength of Li Ang and I is the strongest of the four, so it shouldn't be in the way." ”

"This ......"

Gao Mu was a little unsure, pulled Song Lei aside, and said, "Brother Song, what do you think." Do we want some insurance, delay our departure for a few days, and find a few more people?"

Song Lei thought for a moment and replied, "Your Royal Highness, insurance is important, but don't forget, we have been delayed in Winter Town for several days, and the prince's lackeys may have caught up." ”

Gao Mu looked up at the sky for a moment, then lowered his head and said to Song Lei: "Let's go!"

Frozen canyon, in a cedar forest on the official road.

There were some dried blood stains scattered on the snow, and the red was particularly conspicuous on the snow-white ground, as if there had just been a killing.

Shangguan Yan squatted down and picked up a small handful of bloody snow with her hands, put it next to her nose and sniffed it, her expression began to become strange.

After throwing away the blood snow on his hand, Shangguan Yan stood up and said to Wu Kun beside him, "Just now I used the secret method of the Northern Han Sect to check the blood stains here. If nothing else, the bloodstains here should belong to the Seven-Star Warriors. ”

Wu Kun touched his chin and asked Shangguan Yan, "Are you saying that the Seven Star Division also knows about the existence of blood beasts?"

Shangguan Yan replied, "There is a certain possibility. ”

Wu Kun said: "That's difficult, we are not the opponents of the Seven Star Division!"

Wu Kun may have the idea of retreating, but Shangguan Yan himself does not want to give up. This is a chance to surpass Xue Ji, and I will not give up if I agree.

Shangguan Yan organized the wording a little and said, "Shopkeeper Wu." In my opinion, even if someone from the Seven Stars Division comes over, the strength should only be between us and us, at most it may only be three hundred household commanders, and we may not have no chance. ”

Wu Kun looked at his subordinates, twenty-five experts of the Blood Marrow Realm plus his nephew Wu Jun of the First Heaven of the Secret Treasure Realm, and then himself and Shangguan Yan of the Second Heaven of the Secret Treasure Realm, whose strength was enough to rival the powerhouses of the Three Heavens of the Secret Treasure Realm.

This kind of strength may be able to snatch the female beast under the hands of the Seven Star Division, but it is not hopeless.

Wu Kun smiled and said to Shangguan Yan: "It's the old man who has retreated, and he doesn't have the momentum of a young man. Miss Shangguan, I'm sorry. ”

Shangguan Yan just smiled and didn't speak. Wu Kun didn't care much, turned around and said to his subordinates: "Keep going." ”

The sun sets, the moon rises, and night falls.

Before night came, Zhao An and his party found a clearing in the cedar forest. There are only two landforms in the frozen canyon, frozen land and cedar forest, and cedar forest accounts for more than eighty percent.

Taking advantage of the time to sprinkle animal repellent powder, Mo Qi and Li Ang avoided Zhao An and the others to find a place to discuss what to do next.

"Master Mo, now Xiao Jin and Lao Hei don't know what happened. What should we do next?"

Mo Qi took a heavy breath, and the sudden change made him a little overwhelmed. It stands to reason that Xiao Jin and Lao Hei are both martial artists of the First Heaven of the Secret Treasure Realm, and there are not many demon beasts in the frozen canyon that can threaten their lives.

Mo Qi really can't think of what happened, and now the plan is only to take one step at a time. Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said to Leon, "Angzi." Now that Xiao Jin and Lao Hei are nowhere to be found, we can only stand still and wait for the opportunity to appear. ”

Li Ang could only express his agreement, and his eyes were a little lost. Li Ang originally thought that Master Mo would have some clever plan, but he didn't expect that he couldn't do anything.

Cedar Grove Camp.

Because they couldn't light a fire at night, Zhao An and his party began to take turns keeping vigil and resting after hurriedly eating cold dry food.

Zhao An, who was asleep, was woken up by Gao Mu, and it was time for him to keep vigil. Zhao An rubbed his eyes and looked up at the full moon in the sky. Judging by the position of the moon, it should be around 2 o'clock in the morning.

Zhao An came to the position of the vigil, and it was dark and silent all around. Although he was on the edge of the frozen canyon at the moment, there was no trace of any demon beasts. It's weird, maybe something bad is going to happen.

Time passed slowly, minute by minute, and it was almost four o'clock in the morning, and the next vigil was the Mo Qi vigil. At this time, a subtle smell of blood entered Zhao An's nasal cavity, and Zhao An's tired brain suddenly became vigilant.

The smell of blood is not strong, and it may be far away. Just as Zhao An was thinking like this, there was a low sound of feet and hooves in the distance, although the sound was small, it could be heard that its momentum was huge. If nothing else, it should be a large number of demon beasts.

Zhao An jumped down from the cedar of the vigil and shouted to the sleeping people in the camp, "Wake up, there is a situation." ”

Everyone who was sleeping got up one after another, after all, everyone was a master of the Secret Realm, and their brains cleared up quickly.

After learning about the situation, Gao Mu wondered, "Could it be a demon beast riot?"

Song Lei denied: "Impossible, there should be no demon beasts in the innate realm in the frozen canyon, and it is impossible for such a thing as a beast tide to happen." ”

Mo Qi listened to the voice coming from afar, and estimated it with all the means of the Seven Star Division. There was about half an hour left, and the group of demon beasts was about to arrive.

Mo Qi said: "Let's evacuate first, there will be half an hour at most, and they will arrive." ”

Song Lei and Gao Mu both replied, "Okay." ”

Just as everyone was about to evacuate, Zhao An spoke: "You wait first, maybe we don't need to leave here." ”

"Huh?" When everyone heard Zhao An's words, they couldn't help but raise doubtful voices.

Zhao An opened his mouth to explain: "Don't you feel that the smell of blood in the air is getting worse, and the sound from the distance is slowly decreasing?"

After feeling it carefully, everyone felt it too. Everyone is a martial artist in the Secret Realm, and there is no obvious gap in perception. It's just that everyone was thinking about leaving right away, so they didn't feel the subtle difference.

Mo Qi thought for a moment what Zhao An said, and said, "Brother Zhao." Are you saying that the monsters in the distance are being hunted down?"

Gao Mu interjected: "It should be." ”

Zhao Andao: "I think we can see how the situation is and then decide what to do." ”

Everyone replied, "Just listen to Brother Zhao." ”

As time passed, the situation was indeed as Zhao An expected, the sound in the distance became smaller and smaller, but the smell of blood gradually became stronger. After about half an hour, the sound died down completely, and the smell of blood was extremely thick in the air. The breathing of the people was affected.

Gao Mu said: "It should be fine." ”

Song Lei reminded: "No, the situation is far from so simple. ”

When Mo Qi saw Song Lei like this, he knew what he was worried about: "Brother Song." You're not thinking that those things that hunt down monsters will also do something to us. ”

"Naturally. Those things can torture and kill demon beasts, and naturally they can also torture and kill us. ”

At this time, Qiao Qiao, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke: "Why don't you go and see what the situation is? Our strength is not weak!"

Zhao An: "Qiaoqiao is right. Born to die, blindly escaping may not be as good as rushing up to do a wave. ”

Frozen canyon, somewhere inside a cedar forest.

Shangguan Yan and Wu Kun also heard the sound of the demon beast tide in the distance, but the position was behind them.

Wu Kun touched his chin and said, "Miss Shangguan." It seems that the range of activities of the blood beast is beyond our imagination. ”

Shangguan Yan didn't reply, but asked rhetorically: "Isn't Shopkeeper Wu going to retreat again?"

Just as Wu Kun was about to refute Shangguan Yan, a noisy sound came from the top of the cedar, and everyone looked up at the air. Countless large mosquitoes, that is, polar blood beasts, were in the sky above them. The horde of blood beasts circled for a while, and then struck down from the sky like rapidly falling raindrops.

Wu Kun shouted loudly: "Do it, fight back." ”

The crowd took out their weapons one after another, while Shangguan Yan took out the long sword from the storage ring. Shangguan Yan took the lead, his whole body was running with all his strength, and the long sword in his hand slashed into the air.

Martial arts ~ heavy snowfall.

As Shangguan Yan's long sword slashed out, the snowflakes on the ground fluttered up, turning into sharp flying knives and striking at the blood beast among the cedars. Snowflakes pierced through the bodies of the blood beasts, and disgusting green bodily fluids erupted from their wounds.

Seeing this, Wu Kun shouted loudly: "Quickly avoid, these body fluids are poisonous." ”

Naturally, the people in the weapons industry did not question the words of their shopkeepers, and they all tried their best to avoid the green liquid falling from mid-air. And Shangguan Yan didn't avoid it, on the contrary, it was another sword move.

Martial arts ~ heavy snow covers the mountain.

The deep cold qi struck out with Shangguan Yan's long sword, forming an extremely cold wind, freezing the falling green liquor into ice cubes. Shangguan Yan only needed to use his long sword to push away the ice cubes that were smashed at him, and he didn't need to avoid them.

Seeing that their companions had been killed in large numbers, the blood beasts that attacked from the air became even more manic, letting out bursts of high-pitched hissing sounds, and descending faster. Seeing that the blood beast was even more crazy, Wu Kun hurriedly commanded his subordinates to fight back.

Waves of qi struck into the air, forming a dense and airy defensive net, strangling the attacking blood beast herds one after another. The green liquor that falls is handled by Shangguan Yan, so that there are no worries.

A quarter of an hour later, the group of blood beasts that attacked Shangguan Yan and his party was finally cleaned up.
