Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 135: Acquaintance
Seeing that Chen Hai did not recognize Wang Chen, Ye Jiu laughed in his heart: "Go away, your fat legs are smelly and black, who wants to hug them? Don't be long-winded, this is my big brother, he is very powerful."
"Really?" Chen Hai scratched his head, looking unconvinced.
"Very powerful? You, Ye Jiu, are a grassroots person, and we all know what kind of help you can get. Don't you have any idea whether you can get involved in this situation today?"
"Do you have to die in there to be happy?"
A shrill voice came from the side.
Wang Chen looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was a young man covered in thick black silk brocade. He had a pale face, a tall crown on his head, and two silk ribbons hanging from his ears.
There were two companions beside this man. One had disheveled hair and pale skin, and the other had a slightly hunched back and looked listless.
This pair was extremely thin, and exuded a faint chilly aura.
Ye Jiu didn't need to look back, he knew who was talking. Disgust flashed across his eyes and he said, "If we can test the law with our mouth, why should we test it? We can just let you, Xiong Yu, be the deputy hall master."
"You are such a smooth talker. You are a remnant of a ruined third-rate sect. It's already the best you can do to get to this point. Why don't you just lie down and behave yourself? Be careful that someone will kill you."
"And you, Chen Hai, I advise you not to get too close to these grassroots, or you may get into trouble." Xiong Yuyin said miserably.
"It's none of your business." Chen Hai disagreed: "You are a law enforcement officer in the criminal court. When have you ever dared to point fingers at the law protectors? Do you believe that I will slap you in the face?" He actually used his position to bully others.
As soon as these words were uttered, the disheveled man next to Xiong Yu's eyes flashed. Chen Hai felt a terrifying murderous aura coming towards him. His face changed drastically and he took a step back.
Many people around felt the terrifying murderous aura and looked sideways.
"Such a terrifying murderous aura, so cold and piercing, as if it were real. Who did Xiong Yu invite to help?" A team of three people whispered.
"Among the cultivators who have not yet established their foundation, there are only a handful who can have such a terrifying murderous aura. Could it be Xiu Tu?" someone said uncertainly.
"It's good to have a grandfather who is an elder. We can even ask for help like this." A law enforcer said sourly.
Those who have a powerful background in the family naturally have strong network resources, and the help they invite in will definitely be extremely powerful.
"Xiong Yu is not the only one with a background. After we go in, it is better for us to keep a low profile." A young man said in a low voice, which attracted a lot of agreement.
Xiong Yu saw Chen Hai retreating, already losing face, and sneered: "Haha, you are the guardian of the branch? So impressive, but if you break the gang rules, I will still arrest you!"
"You can try." Chen Hai's small eyes suddenly shot out a sharp light.
The gang members care about their reputation, and he would never show weakness in front of everyone even if he died.
"Let's see how long you can keep being stubborn." Xiong Yu snorted coldly. He knew that he was not allowed to take action at this moment, so he looked at Chen Hai with resentment, then glanced at Wang Chen before leaving.
After seeing the three people on Ye Jiu's side, everyone's eyes shifted away. Most of the teams had already classified Ye Jiu and the other two as those who were just participating and trying to pick up some benefits, but were purely weaklings trying to take advantage of the situation.
There was only a young monk with dark skin, closed eyes and wearing a gray monk robe. He looked at Wang Chen quietly for a while before turning away.
"Brother, this time I'm in trouble."
Ye Jiu leaned over and whispered, "That Lin Meng's nickname is Xiu Tu. He ranks much higher than you on the list of villains. He once slaughtered ten cities and killed nearly twenty foundation-building cultivators. It is said that wherever he passes, even the earth will be dyed red ."
"This man's murderous aura is indeed terrifying." Wang Chen nodded. Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he actually found an acquaintance.
"Xue Wentian!"
He actually came here, who can invite him?
Xue Wentian still had his long hair loose, and his black clothes could not conceal his burning and surging true energy, which made his whole body glow faintly golden, as dazzling as the sun.
This was an extremely powerful young master, and Wang Chen couldn't even block his sword that day.
Xue Wentian sensed Wang Chen's gaze, but he did not look back. He was too familiar with these gazes, and he didn't even bother to look back. In his mind, the people here posed no threat to him.
Even the man next to him who asked him for help had a look of fear and trepidation on his face.
"Who is he?" Ye Jiu noticed Wang Chen's solemnity and gaze.
"Xue Wentian." Wang Chen said lightly.
"The Xue Wentian from the Great Sun Sword Sect?" Ye Jiu asked in surprise. These names were well-known to him, but he had never seen them before.
Wang Chen agreed.
"It's over, it's over. It looks like there's no hope this time. How could Han Xiao possibly invite him!" Ye Jiu has always said that his participation is what matters most, but no matter how you look at it, he has high hopes for the position of deputy hall master.
"Do you know that monk?" The monk with his eyes closed and no words gave Wang Chen a strange feeling.
"I don't know him." Ye Jiu frowned and looked for a long time, then shook his head.
Just at this moment, the white fog outside the valley rolled up.
The clouds and mist slowly dispersed, and a figure gradually emerged. The man walked neither fast nor slow, but gave people a sense of stability like a mountain. His expression was very serious, but his tight clothes could not hide his physique with infinite explosive power.
Fang Hongjian, head of the Criminal Division of the Southwest Branch of the Mafia Alliance.
"Greetings, hall master!" In the gang alliance, status and position are more important than sects, and this group of law enforcement officers from the Punishment Hall shouted in unison.
Fang Hongjian said nothing and glanced at everyone coldly.
"Seven days! Go ahead." He accurately expressed the key points in the shortest sentence.
You must leave the Ancient Immortal Battlefield within seven days, otherwise you will encounter the miasma tide and be lost in the battlefield forever.
The first person to step into the moving white mist was a law enforcer who looked like a scholar. As soon as he and his helpers stepped in, their figures disappeared into the mist.
People stepped in one after another. Although the ancient immortal battlefield was huge and the possibility of everyone being teleported to the same area was extremely small, it would undoubtedly be safer to enter first.
Wang Chen's group entered later. He held a jade token given to him by Ye Jiu. This jade token could temporarily unify the aura of the three people, deceive the teleportation formation, and be teleported to the same place.
With a flash of figures, the three disappeared in the white mist.
Wang Chen, who was in the teleportation array, felt a flash before his eyes and the scenery in front of him suddenly changed.
As he released his spiritual sense, he looked around vigilantly.
This ancient immortal battlefield seems like another world.
The sky was dark, with thunder flashing faintly .
The howling wind brought with it a foul smell, and the thick rolling fog made the vision extremely limited. Bare rocks could be vaguely seen in the distance, some of which were actually broken in two. The soles of the feet were covered in black mud, leaving footprints wherever they stepped, making them feel slippery and uncomfortable.
However, this corrupt swamp-like environment did not produce any lush plants. The weeds and trees were very sparse, and the few that did appear to be dry and rotten.
Ye Jiu looked around vigilantly, and after finding nothing unusual, he took out a compass, which marked the direction of the exit.
"Damn, it's a blind spot on the map."
After staring at the compass for a long time, Ye Jiu said bitterly that the ancient immortal battlefield was too large. Although the gang alliance had explored it for decades, the place where they were now was not marked on the map.
