The speaker was a middle-aged man who seemed to be in his forties, with the strength of a high-ranking king.
There is a hideous scar on this man's face, which makes people feel a sense of coldness. His two iron pillar-like arms are also painted with two lifelike snakes and pythons, that reveals a deep scorpion. The teeth felt terrifying, as if the two snakes and pythons would come out to bite people at any time.
The evil spirit on this person's face, a strong murderous aura radiated out, and one glance can confirm that this person has spent the whole year in the killing.
There were more than a dozen people behind him, all of whom were above the king level, and among them there were actually two low-level land emperors.
If such a force is in the northwest or south, it is comparable to the strength of a nine-tier sect.
They are all members of the blood snake mercenary group.
The Blood Snake Mercenary Group is called the third largest mercenary group near the Blood Demon Realm. The leader of the Blood Snake has the strength of half a step, and the middle-aged man who speaks is the younger brother of the Blood Snake, the Green Snake.
Originally, it was an equal and voluntary transaction for business travelers to invest in hiring mercenary escorts.
However, the Blood Snake Mercenary Group has never followed the rules.
They are a group of thugs, and buying and selling is a common thing for them.
Once the fat sheep they admire, few people can escape their palms.
Now this old man and that beautiful young man have become the "fat sheep" in the eyes of the blood snake mercenary group.
The old man turned his head and looked at Green Snake and the group of people behind him, with an approachable smile on his face and said, "This big brother, we have already contacted a good person, so I won't bother you."
Green Snake didn't look directly at the old man, but instead put his gaze on Ling Xiao and the others, his expression skipped a hint of surprise, but it was quickly overwhelmed.
In the end, his gaze was fixed on Ling Xiao, this young man without the slightest breath of warrior in his whole body.
"Dare you rob the business of our Blood Snake Mercenary Group?" Green Snake squinted at Ling Xiao and said.
"Master, the blood snake mercenary group is the local snake here, the group strength is extremely strong, the head blood snake is the strength of the half-step Tianzun," the poisonous scorpion hurriedly said to Ling Xiao.
After Ling Xiao listened, there was no emotion at all, and he ignored Green Snake, turned around and took his own person to leave.
At this time, the old man once again rushed forward and smiled at Ling: "Brother, you can take our grandfather and grandson, we won't cause you trouble."
"You have caused us trouble" Ling Xiao said lightly.
"Why are you like this? When did we cause you trouble, Grandpa Wei, let's find someone else. I really don't know good or bad." The beautiful young man finally couldn't help but speak.
His voice was mixed with the soft and delicate voice of a woman, and anyone with a discerning eye would doubt if he was a woman.
However, Cai Xiayue told Ling Xiao directly and positively, "This is a little beauty, you see, she doesn't have a Adam's apple".
Ling Xiao had noticed it a long time ago, but it shouldn't cause any trouble for the time being when going out.
Looking at Ling Xiao and the others who were about to leave, the old man looked at his "boy" anxiously and said: "Young... Young master, didn't I say that you were not allowed to speak?".
"I'm just not angry with his attitude," the young woman stomped angrily.
The old man sighed and said nothing more.
At this time, Green Snake stepped up and said, "Does this young master want to vent his anger? Only one head of one hundred thousand low-grade Xuanjing is needed."
The green snake has a rich military parade, and it can be seen at a glance that this beautiful young man is a female who is easy to get hooked.
"Sorry, my young master is ignorant, we won't hire anyone for the time being." The old man hurriedly pulled the young woman away.
"Hmph, I don't even want to go. Today, whether you enter the Blood Demon Realm or not, you must bring out 50,000 middle-grade profound crystals, or you two will stay," Green Snake snorted coldly.
The old man had heard the reward Green Snake that Ling Xiao had said before.
Fifty thousand middle-rank Xuan Jing is not a small number, it is equivalent to five million low-rank Xuan Jing.
He saw this Xuan Jing, so naturally he wouldn't let him slip away from his mouth.
"Are you a strong man?" the young woman shouted at the green snake.
"Haha, that's right, I just want to be strong, so I can get the Xuan Jing out quickly, or you tomboy will reward my brothers," Green Snake said with a wretched look on the young woman.
Just when the young woman was about to get angry, the old man had already grabbed the young woman's hand and quickly rushed into the entrance of the Blood Demon Realm.
When Green Snake raised his brow, he was about to lead the crowd to catch up.
At this time, a low-level land emperor approached him and said: "Green snake don't be impulsive, the old guy just now may be a middle-level land emperor."
"What, that old guy is so strong?" Green Snake asked in surprise.
"My feeling can't be wrong, he is stronger than me," the low-level emperor responded.
At this time, another low-ranking emperor said: "The two of us pester him, and then take the tomboy hostage, not afraid that he will not submit."
"That's right, we have to go in anyway, get rid of the old guy first, and then find the previous group of people to settle accounts. There are a few beautiful girls there, we absolutely can't let it go" Green Snake said with a sinister smile.
"I have no problem, but we have to wait for the flame snakes to converge before catching up. The other team is not so easy to swallow," a low-level emperor responded.
…
The Blood Demon Territory is the only way to the Central Territory from the Southern Territory and Northwestern Territory.
The ancestors here have opened a safe way.
This road to safety was uncovered after countless walking experiences.
On the road, they tried to avoid the realm of high-level spirit beasts. As long as ordinary people don't provoke those spirit beasts, they will not take the initiative to attack people.
Of course, encountering the Bloodwind Eagle is another matter.
In the reckless jungle in the Blood Demon Realm, the roar of the spirit beast kept coming out, and the strong blood of the evil spirit left by the perennial tearing and killing made people can't help feeling irritable.
Can Leopard, who had been low-key, said to Ling Xiao: "Master is very murderous here, in case there are resentful souls."
"Well, I know" Ling Xiao responded indifferently, and then said loudly to everyone: "Attention, everyone, there are so many tyrannical spirit beasts, you can't leave the team without my order."
"It's Master!" everyone responded in unison.
The prodigal boy wielded a musket, playing like a naughty child. He turned his face to Ling and smiled and said, "What the boss is afraid of? They dare not attack us if I am here."
Few people at the scene knew the identity of the prodigal son, only if he was bragging, then forget it.
Ling Xiao patted the head of the prodigal son and said, "Know that you are great, don't show it in front of the boss."
At this moment, the poisonous scorpion said: "The two are following."
Ling smiled without replying, "Let's leave and we'll just leave them alone."
No need to guess, Ling Xiao knew what the two of them were going to make.
However, this road must not have been driven by him, so just follow along.
The group walked for a whole day, and night gradually fell!
The young and old behind Ling Xiao and others still followed slowly.
At this time, Ling Xiao asked everyone to sit down and rest.
It is really not suitable to drive at night, because many fierce spirit beasts will choose to ambush at night.
Ling Xiao and others chose a place to sit down, the old and the young did not hurry, and chose a place not far away to sit down.
Bai Yuxi couldn't bear to say to Ling Xiao: "Master, they are two of them, it's better to...".
"Why not?" Ling Xiao asked as she looked at her.
"It's better to let them go with us" Bai Yuxi whispered while pinching the corner of his clothes.
Ling Xiao hadn't spoken yet, Cai Xiayue had already grabbed Bai Yuxi's hand and said, "Life is sinister, we can't easily trust others".
Wei Dai'er also said from the side: "Yu Xi, sister Yue is right, we must be careful when we go out."
After several months of getting along, the five women Feng Xianyun, Cai Bayue, Ji Beixin, Bai Yuxi, and Wei Dai'er have become sisters who say nothing.
They all really love a man, knowing that their man doesn't like what they are unpleasant behind, so the women are also very witty and didn't cause Ling Xiao any trouble.
Ling Xiao looked at the woman next to him with satisfaction, and then stroked Bai Yuxi's hair and said: "Yu Xi, you are too kind, but... I just like your kindness!".
When Bai Yuxi was said so in public by Ling Xiao, a sense of shyness appeared on her delicate face.
Ling Xiao stood up and walked in front of the old man and young woman.
The young woman glared fiercely, Ling smiled and said, "What are you doing here?"
Ling Xiao ignored her, but looked at the old man. There was also a jug of strong wine in his hand and handed the old man a drink, "Old man?"
The old man smiled and took the jar of spirits over and said, "Thank you, brother, for causing you trouble!".
"It's already troublesome, it's useless to say more, a toast" Ling Xiao raised the wine in his hand and said to the old man.
The old man and Ling Xiao touched, and the two poured down the wine.
The young woman said nonchalantly on the side: "You don't need to escort us. When will we cause you trouble? You are so unreasonable."
"Brother, don't share your common knowledge with her. It's our fault first, but I still said that. If you can escort us to the other side, there will definitely be a big reward," the old man said from the side.
"Are you from there?" Ling Xiao asked.
"Yes, this time we just came back to save our relatives. Unexpectedly, we ran into some trouble. Now it's our grandfather and grandson." The old man nodded and responded.
Ling Xiao naturally knew that the old man didn't tell the truth, but he didn't expose it either. He just nodded and said, "Well, since you are from there, then escort you for a ride."
The old man was a little excited and said, "Thank you so much, brother."
"Grandpa, he must be uneasy and kind, we don't want them to escort you," the young woman said uncomfortably.
"What do you know?" The old man glared at the young woman and said.
Ling Xiao smiled and ignored the young woman, and then faintly said in the direction where she came from: "It's time to come. Lao Zhang will give you this first battle. How about we take care of her safety?".
