Chapter 1558: Mystery man

Zhang Yifeng is not a fool. Xu Liang's words just now seem to tout his importance in the team, but in fact they subconsciously imply that Zhang Yifeng is a potential threat to them.
Those who can come here are all arrogant people. Although they are on the surface now, they will only be exposed when the benefits are distributed.
Xu Liang has repeatedly emphasized his importance in the team, but invisibly released a message to everyone that they can obtain treasures through Zhang Yifeng.
Maybe it's nothing once or twice, but if everyone listens too much, it will inevitably be grudged in their hearts.
He knew that Old Xu had picked himself clean and let him act as a shield in front of everyone. When the conflict broke out, at the critical moment, he came out to make peace again, which not only solved the team's conflicts, but also won the conviction of everyone, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
In Lingyue Continent, many cultivators used each other's relationship and could become true friends. Few, this was the cruelty of Lingyue Continent, and Zhang Yifeng had long been used to and accepted this.
In his view, as long as they don't provoke him, everyone can get along and get what they need.
Otherwise, he is definitely not a soft persimmon kneaded and calculated by others at will.
Faced with the compliments from the crowd, Zhang Yifeng just smiled at the crowd without speaking.
Upon seeing this, Xu Liang's eyes flashed with a strange color, and then he smiled: "Well, there is nothing worth exploring in this second area. Let's go to the third area as soon as possible."
When everyone heard the words, they all nodded, looking at the rolling mountains ahead, the light of expectation appeared in their eyes.
At this time, in the third area, a group of seven people leaned against a big tree for a moment to rest. The leader was a handsome man in white clothes and a big knife.
The man looked tired, regardless of whether his clothes were soiled or not, sitting on the ground without an image and panting slightly.
If Zhang Yifeng were here, he would definitely be able to recognize that the person in front of him was Guan Mufeng of the Crazy Blade Sect, but at this moment, Guan Mufeng no longer looked arrogant and arrogant.
Beside him, there were also six listless monks, one of whom had a pale face, as if poisoned.
"Brother Guan, we must detoxify Liu Tian as soon as possible, otherwise he will die." The only female monk in the team said to Guan Mufeng with a solemn expression.
Guan Mufeng showed a touch of irritability in his eyes, and asked, "How far are we from the center of the third area?"
Several monks looked at each other. One of the monks on the first floor of the Nascent Soul Stage said: "Even if we are on the road as fast as possible, I am afraid it will take two hours to arrive, but in our current situation, there are not three hours. Can't get there."
"Damn it!" Guan Mufeng's eyes became more irritable, "Why is there a level 8 beast on the edge of the third area?"
Although he is arrogant, he is not stupid. The reason why he dared to go directly to the fifth area is because the monk who had been to the Sunset Mountains in the sect told him about the situation of the Sunset Mountains. The real danger in the Sunset Mountains is the fourth to sixth level areas, and the first to third level areas, except for some formations, do not have too powerful beasts.
Even in the third area, the most powerful beasts are no more than level 7. As for the beasts of level 8 and above, they have long been extinct here.
But just now, they encountered an eighth-level beast!
The eighth-level beasts are equivalent in strength to the Yuanying-period. There are several Yuanying-period monks in their team. Guan Mufeng alone has the peak cultivation base of the Yuanying-period. If it were ordinary eighth-level beasts, they would not be so embarrassed .
But what they encountered was the Xuanming Giant Scorpion!
The Xuanming giant scorpion is not considered a powerful beast among the eighth-level beasts, but it is the most difficult beast, because its vitality is very tenacious, unless its head is cut off, it can't be killed at all.
It’s not easy to cut off the Xuanming Giant Scorpion’s head, because the hardest part of the Xuanming Giant Scorpion’s body is its head. Even if Guan Mufeng is holding a level 9 weapon, killing the Xuanming Giant Scorpion takes a lot of money. Some effort.
In addition to the difficulty of the Xuanming giant scorpion, the most frightening thing about it is the poison on its body. Once it is stabbed or bitten, if it cannot be detoxified in time, even a monk in the Nascent Soul Stage can be poisoned to death.
Under the combined efforts of everyone, although the Xuanming giant scorpion was killed, Liu Feng in the team was stabbed by the scorpion tail and poisoned.
Guan Mufeng's question was destined to not be answered, because everyone didn't know why the eighth level beast appeared in the third area.
"Someone!"
At this time, Guan Mufeng's expression moved, and with his keen perception, he felt a faint aura piercing the back of his head.
"Be careful, someone attacked!"
Guan Mufeng only had time to remind everyone, and then suddenly drew out his broadsword, suddenly turned and moved forward.
Keng!
A poison-quenched dagger hit the back of the knife, making a crisp sound.
"He hurts people behind his back, what a hero, he has the ability to come out!" Guan Mufeng snorted coldly, looking at the direction from the dagger.
"Jie Jie, Guan Mufeng, Mad Saber, is indeed well-deserved, and it is so powerful after the battle with the Xuanming Giant Scorpion. It is really amazing." Deep in the dense forest, a gloomy voice came over.
Hearing this voice, Guan Mufeng's expression became serious, and he could not lock the opponent's position!
"Who are you, why can't you get through Guan Mufeng with me?" Guan Mufeng asked in a deep voice.
"Jiejie." The voice let out a ghastly laugh, "Guan Mufeng, how does that Xuanming giant scorpion taste?"
Guan Mufeng was taken aback, his face changed abruptly, and he said sharply, "The Xuanming giant scorpion, did you bring it here?"
He is not a stupid person. From what the mysterious man said just now, he instantly realized that the appearance of the Xuanming Giant Scorpion was too weird.
"Jiejie, the old man just killed the brutal cub, but he didn't expect to be chased here. The old man asked himself that he was not its opponent, so I can only trouble you to help me solve it."
Hearing the words of the mysterious person, Guan Mufeng's eyes were cold and his killing intent was awe-inspiring.
He has always been the only one to call on others, but he did not expect that today he would act as a shield for others.
"Huh, the villain who only dared to calculate people behind his back, I swear by Guan Mufeng that I will kill you!" Guan Mufeng said coldly.
"Kill me? Guan Mufeng, you members of the Mad Blade Sect really have no brains, you can't even find the old man anywhere, why kill me?" The mysterious voice sneered.
Guan Mufeng's face twitched, his face as cold as frost.
