Moreover, it’s the Green Realm leading the group.
Compared to so minor forces led only by the Green Realm, he indeed has the right to be proud.
At this mont, among these forty to fifty people, a dozen tightly guard around Zhu Li, remaining vigilant against any unexpected events.
anwhile, the rest are dispersed everywhere, conducting a search. Although they aren’t far apart, the tall wild grass and trees obstruct the view, making it hard for anyone to see through.
Suddenly, one of the people carefully searching saw a shadow flicker before him. Before he could react, his mouth and nose were tightly covered, and then a ’crack’ sounded from his neck, causing his entire body to collapse on the ground in a twisted position.
The body was dragged into the grass and concealed, while the figure in black disappeared again, searching for the next target.
The person’s death didn’t alarm anyone.
The team continued their search while the searchers beca more and more scattered. They all firmly believed that only when night falls does this forest beco a killing demon. By day, it’s absolutely safe!
When one of the searchers grew tired and leaned back against a large tree to rest, a shadow silently descended over his head, swiftly drawing a sharp dagger across his neck.
Instantly, blood spurted from his neck, soaking the grass before him. The man couldn’t even utter a sound before falling back, eyes wide open, dead.
Such scenes unfolded across different regions of the forest.
So people didn’t even know how they died, so saw the murderer but failed to warn their companions.
Three hours later, Zhu Li suddenly stopped, sensing sothing amiss, and turned back suspiciously to look behind him.
"What’s wrong, Young Master?" The Green Realm expert quickly approached him and asked.
Zhu Li frowned and said, "Why have all the searchers disappeared?"
The Green Realm expert lifted his gaze and glanced around, indeed seeing no signs of people but didn’t think much of it, guessing, "Perhaps they walked a bit too far."
Zhu Li nodded, also inclined to think this was the reason.
Imdiately, he ordered, "Then send a few people out to find them, tell them not to wander too far. Protecting is the most important, as for that scoundrel nad Mu, with Nie Xiong here, he cannot escape. It’s only a matter of ti before he’s caught!"
The Green Realm expert accepted the order and imdiately dispatched seven or eight people to search while he continued leading the remaining eight or nine to protect Zhu Li further in.
"I want to tear his foul mouth apart!" A voice as thin as a mosquito’s hum suddenly issued from within the tree branches.
Another female voice also ca through: "I feel the sa. But we must not forget Lord’s words."
The previously speaking woman fell silent for a mont before reluctantly saying, "Alright. Let’s go and slaughter those seven or eight first!"
"Pfft, your speech is getting rougher."
"Hmph, this is being influenced by the company one keeps!"
Their conversation faded into silence, seemingly indifferent to Chu Sheng, who was similarly lurking in the dark.
Naturally, Chu Sheng didn’t hear their conversation. He wasn’t even aware that not far from him, two beautiful serpents were hiding.
At dusk, when everyone gathered as previously arranged by Nie Xiong, they realized that surprisingly one or two hundred people had gone missing that day!
"What’s going on?" Nie Xiong frowned in displeasure.
He seed to think those who disappeared had retreated despite his warnings.
Such behavior was clearly a provocation to him!
However, before he received an answer, an accusing voice interrupted. "Nie Xiong! Didn’t you say it was safe during the day? All of my people vanished without a trace!"
