The commotion caused by the Blood Battle Gang and the Wind and Rain Tower group was enormous, and the death scream of that Body Tempering Realm martial artist before he died was especially shrill, carrying far into the night.
Yang Kai and Xia Ningshang heard it clearly, and both of their expressions changed as they turned their heads to look in that direction.
They truly hadn't known that so many enemies had been tailing them these past few days. Wen Feichen's tracking methods were quite good, maintaining a distance that was extremely safe, with absolutely no worry of being discovered. Although Xia Ningshang was at the peak of the Separation-Union Realm, she couldn't perceive movements this far away. When the calculating side is taking the initiative, Wen Feichen's plan naturally proceeded smoothly.
"Why would others come here?" Xia Ningshang's delicate brows furrowed slightly, somewhat confused.
Yang Kai's face also turned cold. According to this little senior sister, this place was normally just an ordinary valley. Only on the seventh day of the seventh month each year would a strange phenomenon occur in heaven and earth, which wouldn't attract anyone's attention at all.
In other words, those people not far away were either nearby by chance, drawn over by the changes here, or they had been planning this all along, following the two of them here step by step.
The latter possibility was extremely high! Because there were quite a few people coming, and some of them actually died from the fall when jumping down!
This was deep within Black Wind Mountain. If these people had truly just come into the mountains to find herbs or hunt demon beasts, they absolutely wouldn't have brought along people with such low strength, nor would they have moved in such a large group.
"There might be trouble!" With his thoughts racing, Yang Kai realized something was wrong. "Let's avoid them first!"
"Okay!" Xia Ningshang nodded obediently.
"Want to leave?" A cold shout suddenly came from behind, and immediately a figure appeared a dozen meters in front of them. A palm wind split the air and attacked, blocking Yang Kai and Xia Ningshang's path.
Yang Kai and Xia Ningshang were startled by the high strength of the newcomer. They jumped back simultaneously to dodge, circulating the Yuan Qi within their bodies and remaining secretly vigilant.
Before understanding the newcomer's true intentions, Yang Kai did not plan to completely fall out with them.
Wen Feichen was the first to arrive here and block Yang Kai and Xia Ningshang. Seeing them behaving themselves, he didn't attack further, just watched them quietly like this.
Yang Kai wasn't worth his notice, but the veiled Xia Ningshang made Wen Feichen's eyes light up. He thought, what a delicate and pure young girl. Although her face couldn't be seen, those eyes as clear as stars were definitely not something an ordinary woman could possess. Furthermore, this young girl's figure was also first-rate outstanding.
Looking at these eyes, even Wen Feichen, who wasn't particularly fond of women, couldn't help but feel a bit of a flutter in his heart. If it were Long Hui instead, who knew what ugly demeanor he would show.
The three of them were at a stalemate for quite a while. Yang Kai kept looking for an escape route, but discovered that this middle-aged man in front of him was extraordinarily powerful. He just stood there, yet seemed to block all of his retreats.
"This person is a Zhenyuan Realm expert, Junior Brother, don't act rashly." Xia Ningshang saw what he was thinking and whispered to Yang Kai.
Zhenyuan Realm! Yang Kai slowly took a breath, forcibly suppressing the restless urge in his heart.
In this short time, the group from the Blood Battle Gang and the Wind and Rain Tower had finally caught up. The crowd dispersed around Wen Feichen, all looking at Yang Kai and Xia Ningshang with hostile expressions.
"Who are you people?" Yang Kai narrowed his eyes to size them up, only to find he didn't recognize a single person coming. Doubt filled his heart, and he couldn't help but ask.
