"Seniors, I have a suggestion. Since the depths of the forest is so dangerous, we can encounter a demon beast at any time. At that time, I'm afraid my life will be in danger."
As Lin Cheng spoke, he secretly observed the expressions on the faces of the three of them. He could not help but ask, "If that's the case, why don't we go to the outskirts?"
"Go to the outskirts?"
"Our cultivation is so weak. If we were to be discovered by those senior brothers, they would definitely expel us here. If the teachers and elders knew about this, they might even punish us …"
The other two nodded.
Seeing that, Lin Cheng replied, "We're just trying our best to move towards the outskirts. As long as we're too close to the edge of the forest, it shouldn't be a problem, right? Furthermore, even if we were to be discovered, we would be lost, or perhaps, accidentally entered. At most, we would be reprimanded, which is much better than encountering a demon beast at any time while staying here. "
"This …"
Lin City's instigation made the three of them somewhat interested. The other two couldn't help but look at the saber-wielding warrior, waiting for him to make his decision.
As soon as he met these three people, Lin Cheng noticed that although this saber-wielding martial artist was also at the second level of the Arterial Circulation Realm, his elemental energy was clearly stronger than the other two. It was obvious that this person's strength was the strongest amongst the three of them, so the other two had chosen him as their leader.
"Senior, the demon beasts in the depths of the Boundless Forest are not easy to deal with. I heard that some of them are almost in human form and are extremely terrifying. Even the grand elder and the others might not be a match for those demon beasts, right?"
Lin Cheng said, "Although there are still Ten Thousand Sword Sect cultivators nearby, they really care about the Azure Blue Flames. It would be better if we met the person who stole the Azure Flame, but if we encounter a demon beast, do you think the Ten Thousand Sword Sect cultivators will save us?"
"In the eyes of those cultivators, we're no different from ants." A person forced out a smile.
"Senior apprentice-brother …"
Both of them looked at the warrior with the long blade.
"Alright!"
The Long Blade Martial Sister was also moved. She nodded and said, "Then we will try our best to go to the outer regions. Everyone must be careful. If we run into powerful senior brothers and sisters, do not argue with them …"
The few of them agreed on this and immediately headed out.
Lin City only had a cultivation base at the second level of the Mai realm, and coupled with his deliberate restraining of his aura, the other three didn't suspect anything. They all believed that Lin City was the same as them, being ostracized because their cultivation bases were too low.
This caused Lin City to secretly sigh in relief. With these people as a cover, even if someone saw them, they would only think that they were just trying to be lazy, or that they wanted to go to a relatively safe area. However, they would never have imagined that the person they were looking for, the one who had killed Shui Yi and stole the Azure Flame, was right in front of them.
Under Lin City's intentional guidance, the four pretended to search while walking outside. However, none of them noticed that they were all heading in the same direction.
That's where Lin Cheng buried his spirit stones and pills!
After realizing that Shui Yi was going to do something to him, Lin City left the East State Academy under the lead of Lu Yi Wen. Later on, he found out about Lu Yi Wen's evil scheme and killed him, who wanted to do something to him.
After which, Lin City decided to enter Boundless Forest.
Before he entered, he buried Spirit Stones and Medicinal Pills at a place at the edge of Boundless Forest. That place was for Bamboo Hill, and it was also where the two of them passed by when they went to the Boundless Forest to rest.
At this moment, Lin City wanted to go to that place. He believed that since Bamboo Hill wasn't dead, it was very likely that he would go there to retrieve his medicinal pills and spirit stones, and it was also possible that he would be waiting for him there.
Not just that, but Bamboo Hill had jumped down into the Forbidden Land of Martialism. With such a high cliff, she was likely to be injured. Thus, pills and spirit stones were extremely precious to her. She shouldn't miss this chance.
"Pfft!"
Following the chopping of the long blade, a ferocious beast was finally killed.
One of them wiped his cold sweat and could not help but say: "We have already left the depths of the forest, and there is still such a ferocious beast. Brother Lin, it is fortunate that you suggested we go outside, otherwise, we might have already encountered the demon beasts."
Lin Cheng also intentionally wiped off his cold sweat as he replied, "We should hurry up and travel. We're still very close to the depths of the forest, so we might encounter even more ferocious beasts."
Although this ferocious beast did not have any Yuan Power, its speed was extremely fast. This caused them to be in great trouble, causing them to spend quite a bit of energy in order to kill it. If they were to encounter a few fierce beasts at this moment, they would be in trouble.
For the next several days, the four of them continued on their way. Although cultivators would occasionally fly over them, they would not pay attention to them. This saved the four a lot of trouble.
After a few more days, they finally left the depths of the forest. However, the Boundless Forest was vast and boundless. If they wanted to completely leave the forest, they would still need a long time.
Lin City was slightly anxious. He didn't know if Bamboo Hill had really escaped, but when he saw so many people searching along the way, and so many cultivators flying overhead, he couldn't help but worry.
Bamboo Knot could have been injured in the first place. If he was surrounded and surrounded by so many people, he would be in a very bad situation.
He pretended to ask the three people beside him about it, but these three people were originally excluded due to their weak abilities. It was unknown whether or not someone had already been caught.
Anxious, Lin Cheng subconsciously quickened his pace.
"You guys, come over here!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. The four of them were startled and turned their heads to look, only to see a figure in the distance waving at them.
The four of them looked at each other, slightly worried.
"If we're discovered, what should we do?"
"Don't panic. According to the reason we agreed upon earlier, there shouldn't be any problems." Lin Cheng immediately said in a deep voice.
The others couldn't help but feel apprehensive. If it weren't for Lin Cheng's extremely calm demeanor, they would have already turned and fled.
As if he saw the few people from Lin City stop in their tracks, the figure in the distance shouted again, "What are you guys still standing there for? Don't you hear me? Come here! "
Lin Cheng frowned. What an arrogant tone!
When he thought about the fact that he was already close to the outer perimeter of the Boundless Forest and the fact that only experts were on guard, he felt relieved. Regardless of whether it was warriors or cultivators, they were all respected experts.
"Let's go." Let's go. Lin Cheng said in a low voice as he walked towards the man. The three of them hesitated for a moment before following him.
The trees in the forest were simply too lush. Only when they got closer did they see that it was a handsome young man around the age of seventeen or eighteen. He was similar in age to Lin City and the others, but his clothes were gorgeous.
Lin Cheng noticed that between the young man's brows, there was a faint trace of a seductive look. He seemed to have an unearthly aura about him, causing him to faintly feel uncomfortable.
Other than this handsome young man, there was also the corpse of a ferocious beast on the ground. The place was filled with the smell of blood, and the neck of the fierce beast was still dripping with blood.
Lin City immediately became vigilant. Although the beast did not appear to be too ferocious, he knew that the beasts that could survive in the Boundless Forest were not tamed livestock. The handsome young man was alone, it was clear that he had killed this beast.
From this, one could tell that this youth's strength was quite extraordinary.
Lin Cheng stealthily released his perception, discovering that the energy fluctuations emitted from the youth's body were extremely intense. He was probably at the 4th or 5th level of the Arterial Circulation Realm, maybe even higher.
This caused Lin City to be even more vigilant. His hand moved imperceptibly to the hilt of his sword, and his feet even took a small step forward. This was the start of the Seven Star Cloud-Stepping Steps.
"All of you, clean up this beast, skin it, and cut off its flesh." The handsome youth had a proud expression on his face as he commanded, "Also remember to cut off the tendons and muscles. Be more precise."
Hearing those words, the four Lin City elders were stunned for a moment.
Handle the carcasses of wild beasts?
Did he treat them like servants?
"What are you waiting for!" Still not working?! " The handsome youth saw the four of them in a daze, then his face instantly carried displeasure as he reprimanded, "I really wonder how Old Man Su taught all of you. All of you were dumbstruck, like idiots! "Work!"
"This senior brother …" The saber-wielding martial artist was scolded until his face turned red and his heart was filled with indignation. He was about to open his mouth to speak when he was pulled by another martial artist.
"We will definitely follow Senior Brother's instructions. Please rest assured, Senior Brother, we will handle this matter with extreme care."
"Humph!"
However, the handsome youth couldn't help but twitch his lips. "Hurry up, I'm only waiting for the time it takes half an incense stick to burn. If you don't handle it well, be careful of your little lives."
The one who had stopped the long blade warrior gave them a look and took the initiative to deal with the beast's corpse.
The saber-wielding martial artist was a bit disgruntled. That person whispered, "Senior Apprentice Brother, please don't be rash. I have seen this person before. He is a cultivator from the Myriad Sword Sect."
"Cultivator?"
The saber-wielding martial artist's expression changed, "That's not right. Looking at the elemental energy fluctuations coming from his body, it's clear that he's a martial artist at the Arterial Circulation Realm."
Lin Cheng also became vigilant. Cultivators of the Myriad Sword Sect?
"Senior came later, so I don't know. Although this person isn't a cultivator, he has an unusual relationship with the disciple of that elder from the Myriad Sword Sect …" He had a strange expression on his face. His lips moved as he silently uttered two words.
Male pet?
The long-saber martial artist's expression changed several times. A look of contempt flashed through his eyes, and he no longer spoke.
Lin Cheng couldn't help but be stunned. This handsome young man was actually the male pet of a Myriad Sword Sect cultivator?
No wonder this person had a bewitching aura, he was actually a male pet!
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw the handsome youth sitting down not far away. He could not help but shake his head. He did not expect a male pet beside the cultivator to be so arrogant.
"I'll tell you guys, this is meat I've prepared especially for senior brother Cheng."
At this moment, the not so far away handsome youth spoke up again and arrogantly said, "Do you know who senior brother Cheng is? "That's the direct disciple of Elder Zuo Mu of the Myriad Sword Sect. Even your academy's Elder Su would have to smile when he sees Senior Brother Cheng!"
Boom!
These words were like a clap of thunder that exploded in Lin Cheng's ears!
