Under the guidance of the four practitioners, they soon arrived at the real assembly point. The so-called assembly point he had arrived at before was obviously just a cover. After arriving there, there would be practitioners leading them to the real assembly point.
Eleven practitioners were gathered in the clearing in the forest, led by a middle-aged man in a light grey robe, whose aura had already reached the peak emperor level.
Looking at the middle-aged man in the lead, Yang Qi's eyes fixed and he said in a deep voice, "You guys are really careful enough. Even the assembly point is a cover."
"Please don't blame me, Brother Yang. This matter is of great importance, so we have to be careful." The middle-aged man bowed slightly.
Um
As soon as these words came out, several eyes not far away fell on Yang Qi. The middle-aged man in front of them was the leader of this operation, and also a strong man at the peak emperor level. It was a little beyond their expectations that he was so polite to Yang Qi.
What they didn't know was that after Yang Qi arrived, the middle-aged man felt an aura from Yang Qi that was no weaker than his own. It was obvious that Yang Qi had the strength to not fear the peak emperor, which was why the leading middle-aged man was so polite to Yang Qi.
"Now can you tell me what kind of war beast we are going to deal with this time?" Yang Qi looked at the middle-aged man and said.
"Not yet, I'm afraid."
The middle-aged man shook his head slightly and continued, "But I can assure you that you only need to deal with high-level emperor-level war beasts. If you encounter danger that you cannot resist, you can retreat directly, and the reward you deserve will not be less."
"A pack of war beasts?"
Yang Qi's eyes narrowed. Although the middle-aged man did not say what kind of war beast they were going to deal with, so many practitioners gathered here, and they only needed to deal with high-level emperor-level war beasts. Yang Qi did not understand that this time they were going to deal with war beasts that lived in groups.
Through what he learned in Xuanzhou City, Yang Qi was not completely ignorant about war beasts. Some of the war beasts in the God of War Continent lived in groups. These war beasts might not be very strong individually, but they were definitely beings that practitioners did not want to provoke.
Yang Qi nodded and finally chose to stay, but he didn't even ask about the identities of the middle-aged man and his group. The middle-aged man and his group were so careful, maybe their appearance and identities were all disguised, so there would be no point in asking.
"There is still a friend who hasn't come yet. We will set off after he arrives." The middle-aged man in the lead looked at Yang Qi and the others and said.
The high-level emperors summoned this time were not just Yang Qi, but also other practitioners. Some of them even arrived at the assembly point before Yang Qi.
After waiting for about two days, the last cultivator arrived, who was also a high-level emperor. Then everyone, led by the middle-aged man and his group, headed towards the depths of the forest.
As the group continued to go deeper into the forest, the war beasts they encountered became stronger and stronger. However, among the practitioners present, the weakest were all high-level emperors. Some low-level emperor-level war beasts could not pose any threat to Yang Qi and others at all.
During this period of time, Yang Qi also discovered that the middle-aged man's side had a total of ten people, and the other side recruited seven high-level emperors, including Yang Qi. The three peak emperors were all from the middle-aged man's side.
After traveling for more than half a month, the middle-aged man and his group stopped and gathered Yang Qi and others together.
“Everyone, this is the reward promised to you.” The middle-aged man moved his hand, and seven storage rings fell into the hands of Yang Qi and his seven companions. Inside the storage rings were the rewards promised by the middle-aged man.
A cultivator looked at the middle-aged man and nodded slightly, "Sir, aren't you afraid that we won't work hard after we get the reward?"
"I said, if you encounter a danger that you cannot resist, you can leave. But if anyone takes the reward and does not do the work, I will let him know that some things are not so easy to get." The middle-aged man in the lead said calmly.
The middle-aged man and his group obviously had a complicated background, while Yang Qi and his seven companions were mostly independent cultivators without any major power. If they took the reward but did nothing, even if they returned to the human territory, the other party would have a way to deal with Yang Qi and his six companions.
Immediately, everyone swore a blood oath that they would not attack each other before leaving the territory controlled by the war beasts. At the same time, Yang Qi and the other six also promised that the cooperation would never be leaked.
After they swore the blood oath, the middle-aged man looked at Yang Qi and the other seven and said, "This time we are going to deal with the Blood-Patterned Demon Wolf."
Blood-marked demon wolf.
As soon as these words were spoken, Yang Qi and the other seven couldn't help but frown. The Blood-Patterned Demon Wolves were indeed pack-living war beasts, and the wolf king among them was only at the peak emperor level. The middle-aged man did not lie to them on this point.
However, the Blood-Striped Demonic Wolf is the most elite group of pack-living war beasts. Among a group of Blood-Striped Demonic Wolf, there are quite a few high-level Emperor-level Demonic Wolfs, and even some Demonic Wolfs close to the peak Emperor level. Therefore, the Blood-Striped Demonic Wolf group is also praised by the cultivators of the God of War Continent as the most difficult pack-living war beasts. Even if all the strong men in some cultivation families with peak Emperors come out, they may not be able to do anything to the Blood-Striped Demonic Wolf.
And this time, the middle-aged man actually only wanted to rely on the seventeen of them to deal with the blood-veined demon wolves. This is an extremely dangerous thing. If one is not careful, even a high-level emperor will die here.
"The Blood-Veined Demonic Wolves are not so easy to deal with. I'm afraid we can't do anything to the Wolf King just by ourselves?" A cultivator frowned slightly. Although he hadn't taken action yet, he understood that they were no match for the Blood-Veined Demonic Wolves.
"You only need to deal with some high-level emperor-level magic wolves. As for dealing with the Magic Wolf King, we will do it ourselves. What you have to do is to help us buy as much time as possible." The middle-aged man said lightly.
Dealing with high-level emperor-level demon wolves
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, and immediately understood that the middle-aged man's group was definitely not just trying to deal with the Demon Wolf King, but the other party's real purpose was not something they intended to tell outsiders from the beginning.
Therefore, Yang Qi and his seven companions were only responsible for blocking the supporting high-level emperor demon wolves on the periphery. As for dealing with the Demon Wolf King, there was no need for Yang Qi and his seven companions to take action at all.
All the people present were high-level emperors who had lived for many years. Yang Qi could find this out, and the other six people naturally found it too. However, they were not as strong as the middle-aged man and his group, and they took money from others, so it was not easy to ask. They just needed to do what they agreed to do.
Seeing that Yang Qi and the others had no objection, the middle-aged man fixed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
As the middle-aged man finished speaking, seventeen figures flew out and rushed towards the forest where the blood-marked demon wolf lived. (To be continued)
