After the hearty laughter, the white-clothed young man Ye Xingchen appeared.

Xiaohua's face changed, her two eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, and she ran to Ye Xingchen very happily. coquettishly rubbed Ye Xingchen's pants with her little face.

Brother Liu reacted at this time, hugged his fists and said, "Little brother, this leopard cub is your friend?" Especially the word friend, Brother Liu accentuated his tone, and seemed to be very unconvinced. Even Dali and Xiaoqian behind him were a little unbelievable.

"Well, my friend"

Ye Xingchen replied with a smile. His relationship with Xiaohua is not a pet at all, and the relationship between man and beast can be sublimated into a friend. Even in modern times, there are many people who love "pets", although they have pets, but that person does not regard the so-called pets as their own family? Small animals have a status in many families, so Ye Xingchen naturally does not treat Xiaohua as an ordinary small animal or pet. What's more, Xiaohua ate the Bone Pill, which is definitely not comparable to a pet.

Brother Liu sighed, and asked with a strange expression, "Little brother, are you sure it's your friend? Not a pet?" Obviously, he hadn't reacted yet, because he found that the cultivation of the young man in white was only at the fifth level of Qi cultivation, and this little leopard didn't seem to have any cultivation.

In the Huaxia Continent, there are generally fierce beasts in the Northern Regions, or demon beasts, and a very small number of cultivators will have pets, and such pets can also be cultivated. People often call it a spirit pet. However, because of the different paths of humans and beasts, the name of a pet may actually be a timed time around you**. In case one day, the spiritual pet around him will not only have a higher cultivation than the master, but will also have a mind, and is more likely to backfire on the master's cultivation. After all, fierce beasts and monsters are all beasts, and all beasts always have an uncontrollable side.

Of course, all of this is except for the Zhongzhou Beast Control Sect. The Beast Control Sect is the only sect in the entire continent that raises spirit pets and has a unique way of controlling beasts. Their banner is the coexistence of humans and beasts, and because of their sectarian thinking, it has attracted the dissatisfaction of many sects that have participated in the invasion of the Northern Regions to resist demon beasts, and the sects that have been excluded everywhere.

With Brother Liu's knowledge of Dali Xiaoqian, he naturally would not have learned about the Zhongzhou Beast Control Sect. They just couldn't believe it, in a small village like Dongzhou, there are still cultivators who make friends with animals, even if they are friends, they still find little leopard cubs to be friends, which is a bit unbelievable.

Ye Xingchen paused, secretly amused, and asked rhetorically, "Brother, is there anything wrong with this?" Brother Liu put the axe in, signaled Dali and Xiao Qian to lower their guard, sat on the stone that he had just sat on, and said, "Man and beast have different paths, I'm just worried that little brother, you don't have to be deceived by fierce beasts, they can eat people in their bones." After saying that, he threw a wolf's leg to the former,

"Thank you" Ye Xingchen took the wolf's leg, and he didn't know if he could do anything about Brother Liu's words. glanced at the small flowers with shiny eyes, and said with a wry smile, "Let's eat it for you." Immediately, I saw Xiaohua eating there with her teeth and claws. Glancing around, he said, "Two old brothers and this girl are killing wolves here?"

Brother Liu then said, "Yes, my name is Liu Han, just call me Brother Liu, this is Dali, this is Xiaoqian, I and the other three are from the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, dare to ask what the little brother is called?"

"Ye Xingchen" Ye Xingchen replied lightly. His mind wasn't here. Where to find it on the fire of learning alchemy, what to do with the third wordless book in the divine consciousness. Xiao Qiandai frowned slightly, what a strange person. Said cautiously, "Where does Ye Gongzi want to go?" Xiao Qian is extremely smart, and she is afraid that Ye Xingchen is also a member of the rest of the mercenary group, and it will not be good to fly when the time comes.

Not long after Xiao Qian asked, Brother Liu and Dali's eyes narrowed, and their breath locked on Ye Xingchen, if he was from another mercenary group, then he would do it directly. Ye Xingchen retracted his thoughts, and said lightly, "I'm the one who went up the mountain to collect medicine," and patted his "big belly".

Brother Liu's face was slightly gloomy, and he said, "What is that?" At the same time, his left hand was already holding the handle of the axe. The three of them are all people who lick blood on the knife edge, this kind of trick to attract attention, and suddenly make a move, so the color sank down the spot, obviously thinking that Ye Xingchen might be the one who attacked Xiaoxiao. Brother Liu just glanced at him, and Dali and Xiaoqian held their respective weapons. Seems ready to make a move.

The cold wind whistled, and the atmosphere that had been slightly bloody in the air suddenly froze. Ye Xingchen naturally found the abnormality, but he didn't think so, and took out the medicinal materials in his clothes, which caused the eyes of Brother Liu and the others to tighten, and said "This" to himself. "Is it really a medicinal herb?" said vigorously. After Ye Xingchen bowed his head, when he saw that the faces of the three of them had improved and the atmosphere was not so embarrassing, he said lightly, "I have no intention of being enemies with the three, and naturally I will not harm you." Speaking of this, Ye Xingchen paused, raised his eyes and looked at Brother Liu and the three again, and then said, "What's more, we don't have any conflict of interest at all." After saying that, he put away the medicinal herbs.

"Haha, the little brother is right. Brother Liu gradually reassured in his heart, put down the axe he was holding gently, and then smiled heartily, so that the atmosphere would not be so embarrassing, and then hugged his fists and said, "It's that I'm too worried, Brother Ye forgive me." Ye Xingchen could see that it was this Brother Liu who was in charge of the three of them, nodded and said, "It's okay"

This confident calmness made Xiao Qian's beautiful eyes a little surprised, and muttered, "Isn't it just a medicine picking boy who practices the fifth layer of qi? Brother Ye can reach the fifth level of Qi cultivation at a young age, and his talent is not lower than ours. The latter sentence is that actual combat experience is not necessarily comparable to ours.

Of course he wouldn't say that, and all three of them thought so in their hearts. Cultivation is proportional to actual combat, and it is the strongest. This world will always be respected by the strong, and hard fists are king.

After knowing that Ye Xingchen was no threat, Brother Liu and Dali obviously had a better attitude towards Ye Xingchen, and they also wanted to ask Xiaohua to play together twice, but Xiaohua didn't care, which made Brother Liu and Dali unhappy and secretly scolded Xiaohua for being a little brute. Ye Xingchen naturally didn't know about these. However, when he got it, it was a bounty task, and the three members of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group took on a C-level task to get the beast fire. The attraction of beast fire to Ye Xingchen is not insignificant. Because it seemed that some alchemists would obtain flames through beast fire in the early stage of alchemy, so as to carry out alchemy, Ye Xingchen was full of interest and wanted to go to Sanfeng Mountain with Brother Liu.

Sanfeng Mountain is the third peak of Wutai Mountain, Sanfeng Mountain is headed by the tiger group, Sifeng Mountain is headed by the lion group, and the last peak of Wufeng Mountain is headed by the snake group. Among the five peaks, only the snake group has no leader, and each snake in the five peaks has its own snake hole, and I don't know what the reason is, which causes the three-peak mountain tiger group and the four-peak mountain lion group to often tear each other, which gives the leopard group of the first peak mountain and the wolf group of the second peak mountain a chance to breathe. And the reason is likely to be because the first peak mountain and the second peak mountain are relatively close to humans.

Thinking of this, Ye Xingchen finally knew the situation, he really wanted to go together, but Brother Liu seemed to be more difficult, and the mission of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group this time was to obtain the beast fire delivery task, so Ye Xingchen was not good at showing too much. What's more, there may be a lot of mercenary groups competing for beast fire in the past two days, and it is impossible to say who will end up with it, Ye Xingchen will naturally not make a head bird. The laughter and laughter are gone.

There was no word in the middle of the night, and the bonfire had long since been extinguished. I don't know if it's because the weather is getting colder, or because of the biting cold wind, Ye Xingchen didn't sleep well, and even faintly heard the voice of people in the wind. Ye Xingchen raised his eyes slightly and looked at the three of Brother Liu, although they all had their eyes closed, they were always holding their respective weapons in their hands. "It's really worthy of being a member of the mercenary group, so cautious" After secretly admiring it, Ye Xingchen closed his eyes and let go of his divine sense.

In the divine consciousness, it seems that there are two groups of people stepping into Erfeng Mountain, one group is closer to him, about three people. The other group didn't seem to be able to determine the exact number of people when they just came in, because they were just within the limit of their divine sense. Ye Xingchen shook his head, opened his eyes, touched the sleeping Xiaohua's forehead, let Xiaohua wake up directly and shook her hair, and muttered, "It seems that you have to be cautious, set off early to find a good position, Xiaohua, let's go" Xiaohua got up lightly and followed Ye Xingchen away.

... ...

The next morning, the first rays of sunlight had not yet illuminated.

Brother Liu and the three of them had already woken up, and Ye Xingchen and Xiaohua had long since disappeared.

Brother Liu rubbed his eyes and said, "Dali, what about Brother Xiao Qianye?" Shaking his head vigorously, "Brother Liu, when I woke up, Brother Ye was gone." Xiao Qian nodded and looked at Brother Liu and said, "Brother Liu, don't worry, that kid is just a medicine picker, not to mention the fifth layer of Qi training, how big a wave can it set off, which of the three of us is not the seventh layer of Qi training, don't worry so much." Brother Liu was right when he thought about it, and said, "In that case, let's set off quickly, don't let other mercenary groups take the lead, especially the Lihuo mercenary group!" Immediately, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the three of them, among the many mercenary groups, the most feared is the Lihuo mercenary group.

Three Peaks Mountain. Compared with the bloody smell of Erfeng Mountain, Sanfeng Mountain is obviously stronger. There was a faint smell of blood in the air. It may be that there were too many sudden intruders, causing the whole group of tigers to resist. Brother Liu and the three of them walked all the way, and there were almost tiger corpses everywhere. Even the corpses of tigers whose skins were stripped off and only flesh and bones remained. Even if the three of them licked blood on the tip of the knife every day, there was a churn in their stomachs. Brother Liu and Dali are a little better, but Xiaoqian really can't stand it, and she covered her mouth several times and wanted to vomit.

"Brother Liu, the bloodstains are not far ahead, we seem to be going to the end," shouted vigorously. Although I came late, it doesn't mean that I don't have a chance, so I'm still a little excited.

Brother Liu's face was overjoyed, and he finally walked to the end, nodded and said, "Let's continue", and then looked back at Xiao Qian, who was walking at the end, and said, "Xiao Qian, are you okay?"

Xiao Qian's face was a little blue, obviously caused by too much nausea. forcibly squeezed out a dry smile and said, "Brother Liu, I'm fine, let's keep going"

Suddenly, an arrogant voice came into Brother Liu's three ears,

"Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, long time no see!"
