Chapter 461: The Ravine (1/2)

Although Xue Wei was not too keen on following Lan's suggestion after what happened with the Monarch Piranha Flower, he also knew that they had no other option.

They needed to find the army, and they could not fight them alone, so teaming up with someone would be the best solution. While Lan was very mischievous, he had never lied to them before, so when he had said who was gathering, they did not doubt him.

So, instead of resting, the group hurried towards the direction that Lan had pointed out. They were solemn and alert. Things had taken a strange turn, and they did not know what they could expect any longer.

But their trip was surprisingly easy. They did not encounter any soldiers along the way; neither did they come across many villages, and those they did cross were either avoided or quickly left behind.

During the rush towards the other members of the Demon Phoenix Continent's army, they did not rest at all, and the trip which would have taken them quite some time to travel if they had been relaxed was finished in three days when they rushed.

”They are around here,” Lan said with a smile, and Xue Wei could not help but curse. Right, they were around here, but where exactly?

Also, would they believe in them being soldiers from the Demon Phoenix Continent when they arrived? Would they even be able to join them, or would the experts of this group think that they were spies and eliminate them right away?

Xue Wei had not considered it much before because Lan was the one who told them where these people were, but after thinking about it for some time, he realized that it was not actually so easy to join the other Demon Phoenix Continent's soldiers.

And it soon turned out that he was correct. They had just arrived at a big meadow where the lush grass was swaying gently in the breeze, but a horrendous killing intent locked onto Xue Wei and his friends as they entered the tall grass.

”Here they come,” Xue Wei muttered while preparing himself for a futile battle, but the killing intent vanished as quickly as it had appeared, and Xue Wei looked up to see a familiar face.

The person who walked towards them was the Ghost Sword Lin Xuan, the primordial beast that Xue Wei had helped mutate in the palace's inner chambers.

Seeing that one of the King ranked experts present was actually him, Xue Wei was quite surprised. He had not thought that Lin Xuan would have such a swift breakthrough, but he was even more astonished that this was the guard that had been sent to guard the meadow.

With him present, they would be safe, so he heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
