The middle-aged man's voice made everyone stunned.
The woman in the white dress also immediately fixed her gaze on the place where the dust gradually dispersed.
The dust dispersed, gradually revealing the figures of Ye Qingchen and Mo Shan.
Mo Shan's palm was pressed tightly against Ye Qingchen's chest, and except for a few traces of blood flowing from the corners of Ye Qingchen's mouth, his aura was not weak at all!
"You! How can you be okay?!"
Mo Shan was shocked.
Sensing something was wrong, he wanted to quickly withdraw his palm and retreat, but was tightly grasped by a strong palm.
"You slapped me and you still want to leave? How can it be so cheap?"
A low sneer sounded in his ears, and then a black sword shadow quickly enlarged in Mo Shan's pupils!
"!!"
At the moment of life and death, Mo Shan wielded a long knife with his other hand and struck hard at the Xuan Yun Sword, while at the same time his body suddenly turned sideways!
Chi!
The sound of blood splattering sounded.
A broken arm flew across the sky!
"ah!!"
Mo Shan covered the broken part of his arm, his face almost distorted.
If his rich experience of escaping life and death many times had not saved him, he might have been stabbed through the heart and died!
"The response is pretty quick."
A sneer suddenly sounded, and Mo Shan suddenly raised his head and saw Ye Qingchen walking towards him with the Xuan Yun Sword in hand!
"Go! Kill him! He just received a slap from me, there is no way that nothing happened to him!"
Mo Shan's expression changed and he shouted sharply.
The mercenaries behind him responded in unison and attacked Ye Qingchen.
Ye Qingchen frowned slightly.
Even he found it a bit difficult to face so many people at once.
"Hurry and help that young master!"
At this time, a cold drink sounded.
Behind the mercenary group, the guards of the woman in the white dress rushed out with a roar, killing the mercenary group by surprise.
Seeing that more than half of the people he brought were dead or injured, Mo Shan's face turned livid.
He knew that the situation was over at this moment, and if he stayed here any longer, he would just be waiting for death!
"Just wait! Our Yin Blood Mercenary Group will not let you go!"
After saying harsh words to Ye Qingchen, Mo Shan covered the wound of his broken arm and ran away in a hurry.
"Want to escape? Did you ask for my permission?"
"Overturning the Cang!"
A cold shout suddenly sounded from behind.
Mo Shan quickly turned his head and looked pale.
A black sword light was approaching rapidly, and it flew behind him in the blink of an eye!
"No!"
Mo Shan drew his sword to block, but how could the long sword, which had already been cut with many gaps by the Xuan Yun Sword, be able to block this sword light? It shattered with a cracking sound!
And that jet-black sword light continued unabated and penetrated Mo Shan's body fiercely!
The horrified expression on Mo Shan's face suddenly froze, and his body was split into two and fell to the ground on both sides!
In an instant, the sound in the air seemed to disappear in an instant.
Everyone was almost stunned, looking at Mo Shan's body with eyes full of disbelief.
"Actually...killed Mo Shan..."
The woman in the white dress covered her cherry red lips with her bare hands, her beautiful eyes also filled with strong surprise.
Although this young man in black robe looks young, he has extremely rich combat experience.
He obviously has a pair of armor with extremely strong defense. Relying on this armor, he dared to take a palm from Mo Shan and cut off his arm with a sword, greatly reducing his threat!
At such an age, with such courage and courage, one day he will surely become a hero!
"The deputy commander is dead! Run! Run away!"
Li Qi's face turned pale, he glanced at Ye Qingchen in horror, screamed strangely and led others to run away.
Ye Qingchen frowned and was about to chase after him when he suddenly coughed violently.
Although Xuan Roujia helped him withstand most of the impact of the "Yin Devil Palm", a full blow from a strong man in the Guiyuan Realm was not that easy to bear.
In this short moment, Li Qi and others had already fled.
"This is the 'Rejuvenation Pill', which can quickly stabilize injuries."
Suddenly, a soft voice came to his ears, and at the same time, a slender white palm appeared in front of his eyes.
On the creamy palm, there was a light yellow pill.
Ye Qingchen glanced at the woman in the white dress and said lightly: "Thank you."
After saying that, he took the pill.
Seeing Ye Qingchen accept his elixir, a soft smile bloomed on the pretty face of the woman in the white dress.
She said softly: "My name is Ning Suyan. Thank you very much, sir, for taking action to repel those thieves... I wonder what I call you?"
Ye Qingchen thought for a moment and said, "My surname is Ye."
"It turns out to be Mr. Ye."
Seeing that Ye Qingchen didn't want to reveal his full name, Ning Suyan didn't care and smiled slightly: "Young Master Ye came to the Wuxin Mountains to experience and improve himself, right?"
Ye Qingchen nodded.
"Master Ye is really powerful and has extremely rich combat experience. He is far from being comparable to ordinary Ningzhen Realm warriors."
"At such a young age, he has endless potential."
Ning Suyan chuckled lightly, and then her pretty face turned slightly serious.
"Young Master Ye may not know something, but the one you just killed was Mo Shan, the deputy leader of the Yin Blood Mercenary Group."
"The Yin Blood Mercenary Group is a group of mercenaries rooted near the Wuxin Mountains. There are two strong men in the Guiyuan Realm, Mo Yue, the group leader, and Mo Shan, the deputy group leader, as well as a large number of people in the Ningzhen Realm."
"Deputy Captain Mo Shan is at the first level of Guiyuan Realm, while captain Mo Yue is at the fourth level of Guiyuan Realm."
Hearing this, Ye Qingchen's brows moved slightly.
"However, they pretend to be mercenaries, but their true identities are bandits. I don't know how many people have been murdered by them over the years."
Ning Suyan sighed softly: "Now they are becoming more and more courageous, and they are starting to hit the Ning family of Yunfeng City."
Seeing that he had moved out of the background behind him, Ye Qingchen could not turn his head. A flash of surprise flashed across Ning Suyan's beautiful eyes, and she immediately continued:
"Young Master Ye has now completely formed a relationship with the Yin Blood Mercenary Group. Su Yan suggests that Young Master Ye should give up this experience and leave the Wuxin Mountains as soon as possible. Otherwise, Mo Yue will never let go of Young Master Ye."
"If Young Master Ye really has nowhere to go, you can come to my Ning family. The whole Ning family will treat Young Master Ye as a distinguished guest and receive Young Master Ye with the highest standards!"
After Ning Suyan finished speaking, a pair of beautiful eyes looked at Ye Qingchen expectantly.
However, the result disappointed her, and Ye Qingchen rejected her without hesitation.
"No need."
Ye Qingchen said two words calmly and continued to walk forward.
Ning Suyan looked at the retreating figure. Beside her, the injured middle-aged man walked over and said in a deep voice:
"It's very difficult to win over young people like this who have great potential but are aloof."
"Yes, but if we meet again next time, I will definitely let him feel the sincerity of our Ning family!"
Ning Suyan turned around and cast her gaze into the distance, anger suddenly burning in her beautiful eyes.
"Now quickly reorganize and return to the city! I want to see who dares to attack my Ning family?!"
————————
The second day.
It's just dawn.
In front of a hidden cave.
"Roar!"
A shrill roar sounded.
In front of the cave, a huge demon ape suddenly fell to the ground.
In front of the demon ape, stood a young man in black robe holding a sword.
This young man in black robe is naturally Ye Qingchen.
After calming down for a while, Ye Qingchen took out the demon ape's core, put away the Xuan Yun Sword, and walked towards the cave.
After entering the cave, Ye Qingchen did not immediately prepare to break through, but first took out a lot of green spiritual grass from the Qiankun Ring.
This kind of spiritual grass is called "mixed breath grass", which has the effect of confusing breath.
Spreading a large amount of mixed breath grass at the entrance of the cave can completely cover up his breath and smell, thereby escaping the smell of the monster.
After the hiding work was ready, Ye Qingchen entered the depths of the cave entrance and sat cross-legged on the ground.
He stretched out his hand and waved the Qiankun Ring, and six beast cores that had not yet completely dissipated the smell of blood appeared in front of him, suspended in mid-air.
Including the Demonic Ape Beast Core we just obtained, there are seven in total!
"By absorbing all the energy of these seven beast cores and successfully refining them, I should be able to break through to the fifth level of the Condensation Realm!"
Concentrating his mind, Ye Qingchen began to absorb the energy in the beast's core.
The morning passed slowly by.
At a certain moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from the cave.
Immediately afterwards, a momentum suddenly spread in the cave.
"Level 5 of Ningzhen Realm!"
Feeling the growing strength, Ye Qingchen smiled slightly, stood up and walked out of the cave, put away the mixed breath grass, and started heading towards the next target.
What he was going to was an area infested by many third-level low-level monsters.
For Ye Qingchen, every small improvement in realm brings about a huge improvement in strength.
Now, even against second-level high-level monsters, they probably wouldn't pose much of a threat to him.
Therefore, he wanted to try to challenge those third-level low-level monsters!
After walking for a while, Ye Qingchen suddenly heard some footsteps in front of him.
He stopped immediately, jumped up, and hid on the roots of the big tree, hiding his breath.
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and four figures suddenly appeared in Ye Qingchen's sight.
"Oh, I didn't expect that the deputy captain would die after not seeing him for a few days."
"According to what that guy Li Qi said, the young man who killed the deputy captain only had the cultivation level of the Ningzhen Realm!"
"Tsk! Just listen to his nonsense. The deputy captain is at the Guiyuan Realm. How can a guy at the Ningzhen Realm kill the deputy captain?"
"No matter what, the leader has given a death order, asking us to quickly search for the murderer. Once found, our status will be greatly improved!"
"Let's go, let's go find that guy quickly."
Ye Qingchen narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched the four figures walking past below.
Unexpectedly, just one night later, the Yin Blood Mercenary Group began to conduct a large-scale search for him.
If it is found, I'm afraid there will be some trouble.
Suddenly, his eyes changed.
He saw a fiery red ferocious goose suddenly flying in his direction!
Ye Qingchen was slightly shocked and couldn't figure out why he was suddenly targeted by this ferocious goose!
At this time, a subtle chirping sound came, and Ye Qingchen quickly looked sideways.
It turned out that there was a bird's nest next to him, and there were many baby geese in it that were very similar to that ferocious goose.
Obviously, the ferocious goose thought he was going to take away its children!
"What bad luck!"
The corner of Ye Qingchen's mouth twitched a few times, and he immediately jumped down from the tree without thinking about it.
The wild goose failed to pounce on Ye Qingchen as expected.
But it made such a huge noise and attracted the attention of the four mercenaries of the Yin Blood Mercenary Group.
They quickly looked back and saw Ye Qingchen who had just stood up.
