This is a not-wide dirt road that lies southeast of the Ziling Mountains. It is not deliberately developed by man, but is caused by people who have been traveling around all year round. It is next to it with dense jungle, and there are not small monsters passing by.
A group of people continued to rush forward. At the front of the team, Lin Xi talked and laughed with the mercenary man next to him. These people were different from what they had met before. They were not care about the details and were generous in character. Lin Xi had a good impression of them.
"Little brother, you are quite brave. You didn't walk the road when you went to Yongfu Town. Instead, you passed through the Ziling Mountains. Although this is just the periphery, the danger is quite large. If you are not careful, you will die of the mouth of the monster."
The leader next to Lin Xi grinned and his voice was heavy, and he patted his shoulder. Lin Xi already knew that his name was Lu Qing, a small leader of the Qianfeng Mercenary Group, and was sent to complete this guide mission.
"The road is too far. If time is delayed, my friend will be anxious." Lin Xi smiled shyly. In the conversation with the other party, he told the other party that he was going to Yongfu Town to meet a friend before he appeared in the Ziling Mountains.
"You have courage. Judging from your appearance, you should be a child of a big family." Lu Qing looked at Lin Xi's clothing, and it was not difficult to see this from the latter's temperament.
"What kind of big family is this? I'm just a side-segment. Forget it." Lin Xi sighed, as if there was something unspeakable.
Lu Qing knew that it was a side-class. In a family with strict hierarchy, the status of the side-class children is far inferior to that of the direct line. This is an iron rule anywhere in the mainland, unless you have high-profile talents and strength.
"I will arrive in Yongfu Town in less than one day. That town is amazing. It is a relatively rich place around Sword God City, but the place is a little remote." Lu Qing looked ahead and turned around and smiled. He had a good impression of this young man.
"Yeah." Lin Xi nodded with a smile, with a little careful in her eyes. Since this task is at the golden level, it means that they will never be peaceful along the way.
The team continued to move forward, and there were not many pedestrians on this road. They walked for a long time and only met one or two. Lin Xi looked around and nodded in his heart. It was indeed a good place to ambush halfway.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
It seemed as if confirming what Lin Xi was thinking. After more than an hour of walking, the team suddenly burst into the air and heard from the woods next to it. Following the dense rain of arrows, the target was Lin Xi and his group.
"Be careful! The enemy attack!" Lu Qing's reaction was quick. As soon as the arrow rain appeared, his expression changed, he shouted loudly, and then his wrist shook. The spirit sword started and cut off an arrow coming towards him.
These mercenaries were obviously not ordinary people. After being unable to defend, the team was not confused, but instead formed a defensive state in the shortest time. The dinging sound echoed around, leaving arrows all over the ground, most of which had been cut off.
Only two people were injured and shot through their shoulders and arms by a bow and arrow. However, they did not say a word, and their brows frowned and broke the arrow exposed to their bodies to avoid affecting their actions.
Lin Xi reached out and pushed away three arrows, looked at the people around him, and looked surprised. The mercenary team was obviously well-trained, and it seemed that they had some background.
However, he did not take it lightly. In the face of absolute strength, everything was floating clouds. The most powerful person in this team was Lu Qing, who was in the half-step sword saint. As long as a sword saint appeared, they would have no power to resist.
"kill!"
A wave of arrows hit, and a loud shout sounded from the jungle on both sides, accompanied by dozens of figures rushing out with swords, the target of which was the last carriage.
"Protect Miss Feng!" Lu Qing roared, lifted his sword and rushed towards the carriage first, blocking several figures. The clanging metal sound resounded, the sword element was free to shine, and the light flashed, and a melee was in a place of battle.
Lin Xi turned his head, stepped on his feet, and shot out quickly, and instantly arrived at the other side of the carriage. With the whistling wind in his right foot, carrying the fierce wind, he rushed towards a swordsman who was about to approach the carriage.
"Click!"
A sound of bone shattering sounded. Without reacting, the man was completely kicked by Lin Xi, flew out of his body, vomiting blood, mixed with a few pieces of internal organs, and smashed on the ground in the distance. The blood stained the ground and obviously suffered a fatal trauma.
The people who followed closely were shocked and couldn't help but stop, looking at the young man slowly retracting his right leg next to the carriage in shock. He could kick their man seriously injure them. This strength really scared them.
However, the atmosphere was frozen only in the short message. The few people then looked cold and rushed up again with fearlessness as they held the sword. The light of the spirit sword in their hands shone brightly, piercing Lin Xi's vital points.
Lin Xi looked calm, and the opponent's fierce attack did not change his expression at all. He turned his head and avoided the tip of the sword that was rushing towards him. Then his right hand slashed out like lightning, and his palm knife slashed hard on the man's arm.
The scream sounded, and the man held the arm that had been curved and kept retreating, and was already disabled.
At this time, two spiritual swords continued to pierce, one straight into the heart and the other straight into the right chest. Lin Xi took a step forward, raised his hands, bounced his fingers, bounced the sword body away, and swung his fists, and the thick sword element swept out, shaking the two of them together, landing not far away, spitting blood.
He kicked the last man away with one kick. Lin Xi looked around. There were no enemies on the side of the carriage, and only a few guards with spirit swords were left. They all opened their mouths and looked at him incredibly.
He had a bare hands and punched the opponent in a short period of time without any backhand power. Even their leader had no such strength. Who was this young man who joined the middle?
Lin Xi looked to the other side, Lu Qing was still in the battle. He looked at the people standing aside and said with confusion: "Your leader is still fighting, why are you standing here?"
When the few people heard this, they came to their senses instantly and hurried to join the battle group. Before leaving, they looked at the black figure in awe.
These people are not strong, most of them are in the middle stage of the Sword King, and there are only two or three in the late stage of the Sword King. This lineup should be able to cope with it, so it is no problem, so Lin Xi gave up the idea of continuing to take action.
"It seems that the woman named Feng Rou is really of some origin."
Lin Xi looked at the carriage and there was no movement inside. The old man in front was still sitting there quietly, as if nothing would happen, he would not let him leave. However, his eyes were on Lin Xi, who had just finished the battle, with a surprised expression.
The battle ended quickly, and the other party escaped, most of them stayed here completely, and only a few people were injured and there were no casualties.
"Haha, Brother Lin, you really made me look at me with admiration." Lu Qing put away his spiritual sword, his body was stained with blood, probably the enemy's blood stains. He walked over and said with a big smile, with a deep surprise in his eyes.
I just heard my subordinates' report and learned about what happened on the carriage. Although the enemy is weak on this side, it is quite rare for a young man to be able to do this level.
"Just a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals, Brother Lu praised it." Lin Xi smiled. Although he had a short battle, there was no trace of battle on his body, which was exactly the same as before.
Lu Qing naturally discovered this. Although he did not point it out, his eyes at the other party were no longer as casual as before. The identity of this young man was probably not simple.
"Thank you, my master, for taking action. You could have stood by and watched." At this time, a woman's voice came from the carriage, graceful and ethereal, very beautiful.
Lin Xi looked at the carriage. The woman who could make such a sound should be a very beautiful person.
"Miss Feng is serious. Since I have joined this team, of course I won't stand aside and watch the fun." Lin Xi smiled and said.
The team moved forward again, and Lin Xi's position among these people became significantly different. Some careless mercenaries were no longer as bold as before, and even spoke to Lin Xi with caution and respect.
This change made Lin Xi a little helpless, but he didn't say anything. The powerful people in the Seven Sword Continent are respected. This principle has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, indelible and cannot be changed.
"Miss, these people should have been found by the Lu family. I really didn't expect that they would move so quickly. I wanted to use you to threaten the head of the family." The old man in front of the carriage looked at the door curtain and spoke with a serious expression.
"The Lu family is already in trouble and can only use this despicable method. But if they want to catch me, they are not that capable." A woman's voice came from the curtain.
"With that being said, I'm still a little worried. I just hope there will be no more variables." The old man frowned, with a hint of worry in his voice.
"Let's take a look at each step. This place is not far from Yongfu Town. My father should send someone here." The carriage was silent for a while, and the voice sounded.
"Well, this is all I can do." The old man nodded. In this case, he could only continue to move forward, and there was no way.
Lin Xi walked in front, looking around cautiously, and talking less. He felt a vague feeling that the attack just now was just a test, and the real master should be behind.
He looked back at the carriage and couldn't help but become curious about the woman's identity.
The team walked forward a few miles again. At this time, three men appeared in front of Lin Xi's sight, with slow steps and restrained breath, and a sense of pressure came towards him.
Lin Xi's pupils shrank, and his intuition told him that these three people were coming for them.
"stop!"
Lin Xi shouted coldly and waved his hand to stop the steps of the people next to him. The team's progress came to an abrupt end, and the carriage behind him also stopped.
"Brother Lin, what's wrong?" Lu Qing, who was standing beside him, looked at Lin Xi, whose expression suddenly became solemn, and asked out loud.
"There's trouble." Lin Xi let out a light breath, his eyes still staring at the three people not far ahead. He knew that the real person had appeared.
