“We’ve got company, everyone, be careful.” Wang Zhong warned.
Soon, the four of them came face to face with another team. This other team also consisted of four people; two males and two females, all of whom were inside the ‘Transformation’ layer.
Out of the two women, one was quite tall, had a very slender and elegant body. Her refined features would probably earn her the tag of a ‘stunning beauty’.
However, this woman was, at this moment, wearing a very cold look on her face, as she probably didn’t like being around strangers.
The other woman’s long, jet-black hair, were dangling down from her shoulders to her back in a very glossy fashion. She had an oval face, which was studded with two big and round eyes, which gleamed in a ray of intellect. Her nose was quite small and delicate, while her lips were a shade of cherry-red, which looked juicy enough for any man to start drooling at their thought. Her body was quite exquisite as well, while her satiny skin looked like it was made of jade.
These women seemed quite talkative, as they had been hearing their chatter and laughter from a distance while they were approaching.
The two men had a very bold look on their faces, which were quite handsome in their make, while their postures were smart and refined.
Now that these two teams were face-to-face with each other, they were both on alert.
Human altercations were a common thing inside the Devil’s Abyss, so it was important to be on guard at all times in the presence of unknown company.
“The other team belongs to the Zheng Qi Sect!” Lone Leaf was a bit surprised.
Blue Dragon asked: “You know them, ah?”
“No, but they are wearing Zheng Qi’s symbol, the flaming phoenix.” Lone Leaf explained.
“Oh, so that’s what that symbol means!”
The leader of the other team saw Lone Leaf and Blue Dragon whisper amongst themselves, and thought that they might be plotting against them, owing to which he started getting a little tense.
“I’m Li Xuan Feng from the Zheng Qi Sect, may ask for your introduction?” He, nevertheless, restrained his anger, and introduced himself in a polite manner.
Lone Leaf was even more surprised now, since he hadn’t expected the other side to introduce themselves first.
Li Xuan Feng was one of Zheng Qi faction’s most well-known youngsters. Even though he wasn’t as well-known as Yuan Shi’s Yuan Feng, but he too was considered as one of the leading figures of their generation.
Lone Leaf politely introduced himself: “I’m Bei Ming faction’s Lone Leaf.”
Since their team had been backing each other for a while, Lone Leaf wasn’t afraid of the other side. Ever since he had started following Bi Fan, he had started embodying himself with confidence.
“Wang Zhong, no particular sect.” Wang Zhong also introduced himself, in a rather matter-of-fact tone.
“Oh? The Wang Zhong who goes around challenging people?” Li Xuan Feng had obviously heard of Wang Zhong’s name before.
“Yes, the very same.” Wang Zhong’s tone carried no trace of arrogance, and on the contrary, was quite calm.
Before entering the Devil’s Abyss, Lone Leaf was only into the ‘Enormous strength’ layer, therefore, he really hadn’t made any name for himself yet, which is why Li Xuan Feng hadn’t heard of him.
On the other hand, Wang Zhong had a relatively famed name, and a lot of disciples, even in the bigger factions, knew about him.
“Bi Fan.” Bi Fan introduced himself humbly.
“Blue Dragon.”
Blue Dragon and Bi Fan hadn’t yet reached the ‘transformation’ layer, so Li Xuan Feng didn’t really pay much attention to them.
“These guys actually have a Jiu Yu Da Sect disciple in their ranks, so maybe we should let them go.” Li Xuan Feng said in a low voice.
“Or, we could just kill them Brother. As long as we don’t leave any witness alive, no one will find out.” The other man said; his name was Tian Long Yu.
Li Xuan Feng’s team was no stranger to robbery, but they always targeted students who were not a part of the Jiu Yu Da Sect Schools.
Li Xuan Feng asked: “Sister Yan Ren, sister Ling Long, what’s your take on them?”
“Brother, they have a Jiu Yu Da Sect disciple, and Wang Zhong isn’t going to be easy to handle either. Killing them all won’t be very easy, so I think that we should let them go, as they may cause unnecessary trouble later on.” Yan Ren said in a cold undertone.
Li Xuan Feng’s brows creased as he considered Yan Ren’s words.
Ling Long smiled, but didn’t register her opinion.
Tian Long Yu turned to his leader and said: “Brother Xuan Feng, you make the decision.”
“Well, we will give these guys a pass.” Li Xuan Feng had finally made up his mind.
Although he wasn’t happy about it, he was forced to resist the temptation of starting a fight.
Wang Zhong’s reputation had gotten to him, and Li Xuan Feng was afraid that they may not be able to kill him off.
Bi Fan and his companions weren’t thinking about attacking them at his moment, but weren’t afraid of them either. If the other team decided to go to war with them, then they were ready to fight back.
“I don’t think they will attack us.” Wang Zhong was observing their gestures, and had already understood that the other side had abandoned the idea of a battle.
Li Xuan Feng said: “Gentlemen, it’s time for us to take our leave now. Goodbye.”
Li Xuan Feng’s team turned around, and sped away towards the deeper parts of the Devil’s Forest.
Bi Fan forced a smile: “They didn’t engage us this time, but we might bump into them again.”
The Chimera was asleep. If they had attacked the other team in his absence, then they may not have been able to kill them all.
They may not have been successful in killing the other side, and on top of that, they all belonged to a major martial arts sect, so naturally, attacking them first was out of question.
Bi Fan was fairly strong now, but he still didn’t want to get involved in any unnecessary scruples.
As the other side vanished into the forest, Lone Leaf breathed a sigh of relief, and color return to sweat studded cheeks.
“Fortunately, they didn’t pick a fight with us, otherwise, we could have had a lot of trouble later on. Li Xuan Feng is considered a very important man in the Zheng Qi Sect. If we had gotten in a fight, and even one of them had escaped, then we would have faced a huge amount problem later. Li Xuan Feng is very well backed, even more so than Gu Feng and Mo Li.” Lone Leaf exhaled, and was finally looking a bit relaxed.
Wang Zhong said: “If the Chimera hadn’t fallen into a slumber, then I would have fancied the thought of attacking them. Those four were quite strong, so naturally, they would be carrying a fair amount of valuables. Plus, these people have definitely been robbing other people, so they were probably laden with precious items, and we could have made an absolute fortune here.”
Wang Zhong was trying to assess their wealth, even though he didn’t know them that well.
Bi Fan and his friends continued to proceed through the forest, but they changed their direction since they wanted to avoid running into that team again.
The Devil’s Secret forest was a vast territory, with no shortage of treasures, and competing with others was quite unnecessary.
They, at least temporarily, didn’t want any rivalry with the Zheng Qi Team, as the Chimera was fast asleep.
This was a small interlude, and no one was thinking about it seriously. They continued to look around for precious herbs, and carried on hunting the Devil’s Race beasts.
The dense vegetation of the Devil’s Secret Forest was studded with a variety of herbs, but most of these herbs were quite common in the outside world as well, which is why Bi Fan was acting a little lazy, as he didn’t unearth many.
Whenever they encountered a powerful beast of the Devil’s Race, Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf would fight the beasts to train. They were careful while killing these beasts, as they didn’t want to spoil the market value of their carcasses.
Ever after acquiring the Jungle Python eggs, the four of them were suddenly very keen on acquiring a nucleus.
After killing the beasts, the four of them would always divide the kills, and then search the carcasses of their respective kills, in the hope of obtaining a nucleus.
Unfortunately, they hadn’t had any luck in that department so far, as they hadn’t been able to obtain a nucleus until now.
However, they had managed to obtain a decent number of precious herbs, and their faces were beaming with smiles.
“Following Brother Bi Fan has been such a great experience. I’ve managed to procure so many treasures, so many herbs, and even a Beast pet.” Lone Leaf smiled, as he continued: “Now, all I need is a pretty girl. That’d be really cool.”
Blue Dragon smiled: “Those two girls from the Zheng Qi faction were quite beautiful, how were you able to keep your hands of them, Brother?”
“Brother Dragon, you’re a naughty one.” Lone Leaf said: “Those girls are too strong; I won’t be able to impress them.”
Blue Dragon encouraged him: “You’ll be entering into the ‘Emerging from the Womb’ layer soon Brother, you still believe that you can’t win them over?”
“Well, Jiu Yu Da Sect women, especially the pretty ones, have no shortage of strong suitors. Most of these strong men are often backed very heavily by their factions. I really don’t want to go around stirring trouble, and offending men I can’t match up to.” Lone Leaf shook his head as he explained.
Blue Dragon was quite excited now: “Brother Lone Leaf, tell us, which of the Jiu Yu Da Sect schools has the best beauties.”
Bi Fan and Wang Zhong also turned their ears towards their conversation, and start listening attentively.
Lone Leaf looked rather pleased with himself, as he cleared his throat, and then started recounting his sightings.
“We’ve got company, everyone, be careful.” Wang Zhong warned.
