Chapter 1119: Duan Mu
When Li Luo and his group landed on the hill, there were multiple wary eyes looking at them. However, their looks of vigilance turned into pleasant surprise as soon as they saw familiar faces like Feng Lingyuan and Li Hongyou.
Li Luo took a look at the surrounding area. There was quite a number of people here, roughly seven to eight teams.
However, some of the teams were incomplete. They had most likely suffered from the same ambush as Li Luo's group.
Since these teams were all from the Heavenly Origin Ancient College, they were delighted when they saw Feng Lingyuan. Everyone rushed up to welcome her.
"Sister Feng!"
"It's great to see you here, Sister Feng. We're so lucky to have you with us. Our next mission will be easier with you around."
"There's Sister Hongyou too. Did the two of you team up?"
"As expected. The mission has been strange and unfathomable. It's safer for the stronger fighters to team up and work together."
"That's great news. We have Brother Duan Mu here. He's ranked third. With such a formidable group, there's no tiger's den that we dare not venture into... right?"
The people discussed amongst themselves. Their faces were evidently full of fear as the shocking situation earlier had left a deep trauma in their hearts.
No one had expected the Others to give them such a painful welcome as soon as they arrived.
With the frightening memories still fresh in their minds, they had all halted before the black swamp. No one dared to enter it. nove(l)bi(n.)com
As the crowd continued to chat amongst themselves, Feng Lingyuan looked straight past them towards the back. There was a slender and beautiful figure standing there. His hair was shoulder-length and his eyes glittered like cherry blossoms. With both of his hands in his pockets, he appeared really cool.
The feminine young man was Duan Mu, ranked third in the Upper Hall.
"Duan Mu, how's the situation on your side?" Feng Lingyuan asked.
At this moment, Duan Mu walked over with a group of people. The other teams gave way to him, and the two leaders came together. The feminine youth took a glance at Feng Lingyuan. "Things went alright. We were caught by surprise, but there were only two Greater Evil Spirits. In the end, we managed to kill one of them whilst the other was forced to retreat."
As he was looking for the familiar figure, a girl's arrogant laughter echoed in the air.
"Is this all? The Heavenly Origin Ancient College's teams look so pathetic."
As soon as her disdainful words left her mouth, the faces of those from the Heavenly Origin Ancient College turned furious.
Feng Lingyuan's brows narrowed a little as she loudly said, "Dear friends from the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College, why don't you come down for a chat since you're here?"
Their resonant power subsided as the new arrivals landed from the sky.
The original group quietly observed as they landed. Amongst them, there were three figures that stood out.
One girl and two guys.
The girl was young and beautiful. Her body was voluptuous and her legs were shockingly long. In between her eyebrows was a diamond-shaped crystal that emanated a fearsome holy aura.
It was Yue Zhiyu, ranked third in the Upper Hall of the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College's Heavenly Star Hall.
The other two were no slouches either. One was a youth with short hair. He appeared ordinary but he seemed to possess extraordinary grit and determination.
It was Wang Kong, ranked second in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College.
His rank was higher than Yue Zhiyu's, but he was clearly one who preferred to keep a low profile. He stood at the side as if he was just accompanying her.
In contrast, the last fellow was the most eye-catching. Even the beautiful and arrogant Yue Zhiyu was unable to steal the limelight from him.
He was tall and handsome with a head of fiery hair. A blazing heat flowed around his body, giving off a tyrannical aura.
He smiled as he took a glance at the crowd, then he introduced himself as if he was the leader.
"Dear friends from the Heavenly Origin Ancient College, it is my pleasure to meet you. My name is Wei Chonglou, and I'm ranked fourth in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College's Heavenly Star Hall."
