Chapter 275: Dark And Windy Night!

Boundary Mountain.
At the border of the boundless world.
Outside the Boundary Mountain were countless forbidden lands for life.
At the same time, the Boundless Dynasty also strictly prohibited cultivators from crossing the Boundary Mountain!
Therefore, ordinary people did not know what was outside the Boundary Mountain.
A thousand years ago, a first-rate sect felt that there were endless treasures outside the Boundary Mountain.
The Boundless Dynasty forbade others from crossing the Boundary Mountain also because he wanted to monopolize the resources!
However, when that first-rate sect crossed the Boundary Mountain, no one came back…
At the same time, that first-rate sect was destroyed just like that…
No one knew what had happened.
However, because of this matter, no one had any designs on the outside of the Boundary Mountain.
The dog’s life was more important…
At this moment, night fell.
The Yang family members rested in a valley on the Boundary Mountain.
He would leave the next day.
After starting the fire, the Yang family’s guards were scattered around to prevent them from being ambushed by the other families.
He Lin was assigning tasks to the other five members of the Scales Mercenary Group.
“Gao Yun, your movement technique is the most agile. Go and investigate the surroundings of the valley.”
“Dao Bei, set up some formations around here.”
“And you…”
As a mercenary, since he had accepted the mission, he had to work hard to complete it.
As a mercenary group, He Lin was naturally a professional.
Of course, whether it would be effective or not was another matter.
When Yang Qi saw all of this he could not help but nod. He leaned against the carriage and smiled. “Helin and the others are trustworthy. It’s right to let the Scales Mercenary Group take on this mission. If there’s any work in the future, we can try to cooperate again.”
“Little sister, you should rest well.” A pleasant voice came from the carriage.
“Big Brother, I’m also a martial cultivator. I’m not that weak.”
“What about the Cottage Mercenary Group? Why didn’t you mention them?”
Speaking of the Cottage Mercenary Group, Yang Qi looked in the direction of Ye Qiubai and the other two.
Instantly, he was enraged!
Ye Qiubai and the other two were cultivating with their eyes closed!
He had no intention of protecting them at all!
Yang Qi walked over with an angry expression and shouted, “What exactly are you doing?!”
“Don’t you know your mission?”
Ye Qiubai didn’t open his eyes and said indifferently, “Don’t be so nervous. I’ll be the first to know if there’s any movement around.”
Of course, if even Ye Qiubai didn’t notice it immediately, no one here would be able to notice.
However, Ye Qiubai didn’t say this.
He Lin clearly heard Ye Qiubai’s words.
He frowned and snorted coldly. “Kid, even we have to make careful arrangements in the surroundings to be at ease. Yet you’re cultivating here peacefully?”
Ye Qiubai didn’t answer.
Seeing that the three of them were so stubborn, Yang Qi waved his sleeves and snorted angrily, “Don’t even think about getting paid!”
“When the time comes, I’ll report to the Mercenary Guild. You guys can wait to be dismissed!”
Ye Qiubai felt a little helpless.
Why didn’t he believe it?
However, it was not difficult to understand.
He only revealed strength at the Peak Stage Qianyuan Realm after all, not even a Void God Realm expert.
His words were naturally not convincing at all.
This world was one that only the strong were respected.
Only the strong could convince others.
At night in the Boundary Mountain, it was very quiet.
Insects chirped in the surroundings, and a breeze would occasionally blow past.
The leaves rustled.
In the Yang family’s encampment, the flame was the only light that illuminated this place.
The flames swayed in the wind, making them look graceful and graceful.
The sound of burning trees.
Sizzle…
From time to time, there would be the sound of sparks exploding.
However, it was abnormally quiet.
Ye Qiubai opened his eyes.
Shi Sheng and Blackie opened their eyes at the same time.
“Did you notice something?”
Under the cover of the sword domain, Ye Qiubai didn’t discover anything abnormal.
However, the surrounding environment was indeed not right!
Blackie looked around and frowned slightly. “There’s a faint killing intent in the air.”
The third level of the Eternal Demon Body.
It was condensed from killing intent!
Therefore, Blackie’s perception of killing intent was naturally stronger than others.
Shi Sheng looked at the sky.
There were stars in the sky!
What he cultivated was the power of stars.
As long as it was night time, his perception would also be stronger than during the day!
“We should have fallen into the array…”
Ye Qiubai also nodded and said, “Avery brilliant shielding array. The person who set up the array probably has some strength.”
“Moreover, the other party used a medium like a jade pendant to carve a formation in advance and released it here.”
It was impossible to set up a shielding array in front of Ye Qiubai and the other two.
Unless the other party’s strength far exceeded theirs and reached the Martial Monarch Realm, a formation of this level should not have been created by a Martial Monarch Realm.
Therefore, it could only be the possibility that Ye Qiubai had mentioned.
Blackie turned to look at Ye Qiubai.
“Senior Brother, what should we do?”
Shi Sheng also looked at Ye Qiubai with 100% trust in his eyes.
Ye Qiubai thought for a moment and stood up to Yang Qi’s side. He said, “There’s a possibility that this place is isolated by an array formation.”
Yang Qi was slightly stunned.
Then, he sneered and said, “You’re a junior at the Qianyuan Realm and you’ve been cultivating here. How can you know?”
Ye Qiubai was also a little helpless. He reminded again, “I’ve been using my methods to be vigilant of my surroundings. Someone will probably attack in half an hour.”
Yang Qi frowned looking at Ye Qiubai’s expression.
It didn’t seem like he was using her to intimidate others.
Since he wanted to become a mercenary and survive in this boundless world, it was impossible for him to do such a meaningless thing.
As the son of an aristocratic family, Yang Qi was not a brainless person.
Moreover, this was a critical period.
Nothing must go wrong with his little sister’s safety!
In this way, the Yang family’s plan would fail.
For the current Yang Family, it was absolutely unbearable!
Due to these reasons, Yang Qi still decided to discuss it with He Lin.
Hence, he came to He Lin’s side.
She told him what Ye Qiubai had said.
During this time, He Lin frowned and glanced at Ye Qiubai.
He then took out the voice transmission jade pendant.
“Gao Yun, Dao Bei, did you find anything unusual?”
“No.”
He Lin nodded. “Continue to be vigilant.”
After saying that, he turned to look at Ye Qiubai and said, “How did you discover it?”
He really did not believe it.
A junior at the Peak Stage Qianyuan Realm.
If they sat here without moving, they would be able to discover something that they could not detect by setting up array formations outside.
Yang Qi was also a little suspicious.
Could it be that he was really borrowing the might of a tiger to make his presence known?
Seeing that the two of them didn’t believe him, Ye Qiubai could only shake his head and stop persuading them.
Instead, he told Blackie and Shi Sheng to be prepared to fight at any time.
He had also pulled out the Dark Demon Sword!
