C84 (1/2)

There were clearly many teams that entered the mountain range. Just from Gu Feng's direction, they could see over a dozen groups. These groups, more or less, were quite cautious of each other. After entering the mountain range, they separated.

Dongfang Shang and the rest were clearly well-prepared as they carried with them an extremely detailed map of the Flame Sun Mountain Range. Therefore, they did not need to explore the area meaninglessly. The group directly travelled in a straight line and swiftly headed towards the depths of the mountain range.

As the group swiftly advanced, the noise behind them gradually disappeared. At the same time, the expressions of Dongfang Shang and the rest became solemn and alert.

At this point, they had already reached the depths of the Sunscorch Mountain Range, where powerful demonic beasts were roaming about.

Gu Feng's face was calm and composed, but he spread out his divine sense to scan the surroundings.

”There's the smell of blood?”

Gu Feng frowned slightly. The smell of blood was too strong. Something extraordinary had happened just now.

”Muir, go ahead and investigate.” Dongfang Shang's eyes focused, and he said to the armored guard behind him.

”Swish.”

That Tie Yi Hall guard quickly rushed forward. However, he didn't have any time to react. In fact, if he didn't carefully investigate, he wouldn't even be able to detect his aura.

Gu Feng couldn't help but sigh. The City Lord's Mansion was indeed filled with talented people. Such an exquisite concealing technique was rare even in the large sects. If such a person were to become an assassin and hide in the shadows, even a level seven or eight Pure Body Realm martial artist would not be able to escape his pursuit.

A moment later, Mu Er and the Iron Robed Guard came back. They said to Dongfang Shang, ”Sir, there is a group of about 40 people in front of us. There are some corpses of demon beasts on the ground, which should be sent by them.”

”Yes.” Dongfang Shang nodded, ”Continue.”

There were many forces that had entered the Sunscorch Mountain Range. All of the people here were here for the remains of the Soul Condensation expert. With so many people entering, all the demonic beasts in the Sunscorch Mountain Range would surely go berserk. This situation was understandable.

Seeing that Dongfang Shang didn't intend to take a detour, those Tie Yi Guards didn't object. As the elites of the City Lord's Mansion, when had they ever been afraid of others?

Gu Feng's eyes narrowed as he stared at the lush greenery. Not far away, he could sense the presence of quite a few people. In fact, he even sensed an extremely powerful aura over there. That aura had already reached the eighth level of the Pure Body Realm. Such a figure also possessed quite a bit of status within the large sects.

While Gu Feng was silently sighing, the group had already passed through the trees. After which, dozens of figures appeared in the empty space in front of them.

”Heh, I never would have thought that someone would come to die.” Amongst the dozens of figures, a skinny young man looked at Gu Feng's group and grinned. There was a hint of ridicule on the corner of his mouth, as well as a hint of bloodlust.

”Big brother, should we make a move?”

A middle-aged man in a black robe asked a man beside him with a blood-red blade. There were only a dozen or so people on the opposite side. Although their auras were extremely ferocious, there were forty people on their side who were completely capable of devouring Gu Feng and the others.

The atmosphere had become much tenser in an instant.

Gu Feng's gaze swept across the crowd before coming to rest on a man standing in the middle. This man was tall and sturdy, with a sturdy build, and his arms were bare. Numerous vicious scars covered his entire arm, causing him to appear extremely fiendish.
