On the night of Beast Ridge, it seemed particularly quiet.
At this moment, Luo Chen and the other three people all jumped onto a large tree, each finding a branch to sit on, leaning against the huge trunk.
In order to prevent further attacks from monsters like the previous black bear, the four of them chose the same tree for easy and timely support.
"By the way, why did you provoke that black bear?" Luo Chen asked with some confusion.
"It's all because of Han Qing. I don't know where he got the information from, but he said there's a 'Red Spirit Grass' in this forest, and the three of us came for it. Now we can't find the grass, and we almost lost our lives," Lei Man complained.
"Red Spirit Grass..." Luo Chen murmured.
Red Spirit Grass is a kind of spiritual herb that nurtures Positive spiritual energy.
Luo Chen once saw it in the Compendium of Hundred Herbs, and it is said that consuming this herb can refine one's spiritual power.
This is somewhat similar to the 'Falling Sunset Flowers' he swallowed, but the effect cannot be compared to that of the 'Falling Sunset Flowers.'
"Han Qing, where did you get this intelligence from?"
Qin Yue seemed to realize something and asked Han Qing.
"I overheard it from that guy Xiao Yun."
Han Qing looked a little embarrassed, after all, it was the intelligence she had heard herself.
"Xiao Yun! You believe his words too."
Qin Yue seemed a little excited.
"It seems that we have been calculated by him. He must have deliberately let you hear it, in order to use the black bear to get rid of us."
"Heck, it's this guy again. Next time I see him, I'll break his legs." Lei Man was also furious at this point and couldn't help but curse.
"Who is this Xiao Yun?" Luo Chen asked in confusion. If even Lei Man is this angry, it seems like he's not a good person.
"A very annoying person." Mentioning Xiao Yun, the three of them became somewhat agitated.
"His own strength is not that great, but he relies on his brother Xiao Cheng, who is a master on the mysterious list, to act wantonly within the sect, doing all sorts of bad things. He is a complete playboy."
"Not only that, but he has an extremely narrow mind and often hurts people over trivial matters. Many people have opinions about him, but no one dares to say anything to his face because of his talented older brother."
"Among the three of us, Manzi and Han Qing are more straightforward. They once confronted him face to face, which made him hold a grudge against them, so they have always been at odds with him," Qin Yue said angrily.
"I can't believe there are such shameless people." Luo Chen shook his head.
Indeed, he is not a good person...
After chatting for a while, the four of them fell asleep one after another.
The night was slightly cool.
The next morning, a ray of sunlight shone through the layers of leaves and onto Luo Chen's face.
Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes and stretched lazily.
I haven't slept so comfortably in a long time.
In the past few days, Luo Chen has been spending time in the bamboo forest, either traveling or resting along the way.
After a full night's sleep, the weariness on my face has vanished. My eyes have regained their former sparkle.
"You're awake."
Luo Chen heard a voice from above and looked up to see Qin Yue sitting on the treetop.
"I didn't expect you to look so good when you're sleeping," Qin Yue said with a smile, sitting on the branch and looking at Luo Chen.
This was not a lie. Although Luo Chen was only 12 years old, he could be said to be peerless in appearance.
Only to see Qin Yue's jet-black hair casually draped over her shoulders, her hands resting on the tree branches, her two slender jade legs swaying slightly in the air, like a beautiful scenic line.
"Hehe."
Luo Chen touched his nose with his hand and gave a dry laugh, looking a bit embarrassed.
"You are very beautiful too," Luo Chen responded.
Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, Qin Yue was momentarily stunned, then smiled brightly. This smile outshone all the flowers, leaving Luo Chen momentarily dumbfounded.
"Boss, why are you guys up so early?" Lei Man complained, clearly having been woken up by the two of them. Before long, Han Qing also woke up beside them.
"Since everyone is awake, let's Departure then."
In the quiet forest, four figures moved slowly, naturally they were Luo Chen and his companions.
The four of them had been walking for most of the day, encountering several demonic beasts along the way. However, most of them were only at the second and third levels of the Gathering Yuan Realm, and did not pose a significant threat to them.
"We're almost at the exit," said Han Qing ahead.
The three people behind understood, and the surrounding trees began to thin out. It looks like they're almost at the exit.
When the three of them reached the exit, Luo Chen was stunned by the sight in front of him. Instead of the dense forest, there was a huge black fortress.
Several armored figures stood atop the fortress. The main gate of the fortress displayed two large characters: "Jiu Xuan."
"What is this?" Luo Chen asked, somewhat surprised.
"This is the 'Mystic Gate' of the Jiu Xuan Sect, used to defend against the beasts from Beast Ridge. The soldiers in armor on top are from the sect's law enforcement team."
"What a grand display," Luo Chen couldn't help but exclaim to himself.
"Several senior brothers." Qin Yue stepped forward and called out to the people on the fortress. She then took out a delicate token from her possession, on which the characters 'Jiu Xuan' were also inscribed.
"It’s Miss Yue, open the door." The soldiers on the upper floor recognized Qin Yue and shouted to those behind them.
Under Luo Chen's gaze, the heavy fortress gate slowly opened.
"Thank you, senior brother," Qin Yue said again to the person on the fortress.
"Hehe." The person above also smiled at Qin Yue, obviously knowing her.
"Let's go." The three people behind nodded and walked into the fortress.
"sect law enforcement team, do they govern criminal law?"
"Of course, law enforcement team is one of the top forces in sect, they only follow sect rules, and they are extremely strict."
"Not only that, but more importantly, the current captain of the law enforcement team, Ye Hao, ranks third on the mysterious list," Qin Yue said with admiration.
Luo Chen was shocked, third on the mysterious list...
While on the road, the three of them told him that the "mysterious list" is the strictest list in the academy, recording the most outstanding figures in the entire sect.
And the leader of the law enforcement team can rank third on the "mysterious list", indicating his formidable strength.
As everyone passed through the fortress, another scene unfolded before their eyes. In front of Luo Chen, figures flickered and various voices filled the air, creating a lively atmosphere.
Among these people, there are some who carry swords and are ready to enter the Beast Ridge.
There is also a group of people with tattered clothes and various injuries, apparently just returning from their experience in the Beast Ridge.
At this moment, several figures noticed them.
"Hey, isn't this Senior Sister Qin Yue?" At this moment, a harsh voice came from the crowd.
Three people dressed in Chinese costumes walked out immediately, all with a mocking smile in their eyes as they looked maliciously at Qin Yue. The voice came from the middle person.
"This bastard..."
