After the secondary occupation reached the maximum level, I wore it

Xie Cheng looked unhappy and asked, "Were you the ones who controlled the snakes and insects in the poisonous swamp?"

The three Wu Hao brothers laughed a few times but did not deny it.

Although the poisonous clam was a bit troublesome to deal with, it was no match for Xie Cheng. The three brothers were good at controlling poisonous creatures, and knowing that he cared about Xie Zhixun's safety, they deliberately summoned many poisonous creatures hidden in the mud and swamp to attack Xie Zhixun in order to distract him.

Sure enough, in his anxiety, Xie Cheng was hit by the poisonous clam, and the poison invaded his meridians.

The poison was not serious, and after taking the detoxification pill, he would have recovered by regulating his breathing overnight. However, Wu Hao and the other two took advantage of his unpreparedness, crushed the poison pill and used their breath as a guide, which catalyzed the toxins in his body, causing the spiritual energy in Xie Cheng's body to collide violently, damaging his meridians and greatly reducing his strength.

As for the others, they were also careless in guarding against the attacks, and were stung by the Spirit-Sealing Bees released by the three brothers while they were half asleep, and most of their magic powers could not be used.

——These are what happened when Shi Yu used the excuse of going to the bathroom to leave and pick dragon bamboo grass.

Hiding behind a tree, Shi Yu's eyes flickered with a thoughtful look.

She was definitely not the kind of person who would risk her life to save others. Besides, she and Xie Cheng, master and servant, were just casual acquaintances and did not have much friendship between them.

Besides, even if she wanted to save them, the three Wu Hao brothers had the cultivation level of the sixth level of Qi Refining, which was far beyond her reach. Why bother trying to be a pointless hero?

only……

"These three people had this plan a long time ago, and they must have seen me leaving."

At this moment, it seems that Wu Hao and the other two are good at using poisons. Shi Yu is not sure whether he has been tampered with or contaminated with something strange.

"Let's wait and see." Her heart sank and she made some plans.

"Xie Cheng is, after all, a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining. Even if he fell into a trap, he should not be completely defenseless."

She took out the only two spiritual talismans she had and held them in her hands. She continued to restrain her breath and observe the situation while speeding up the refining of the Condensed Dew Pill - picking the dragon bamboo grass and going back and forth had consumed most of the spiritual energy in her body.

Over there, Wu Hao shifted his gaze away from Xie Cheng and the other two, looked at the others and spoke, his tone sounding quite sincere:

"The three of us brothers have all reached the sixth level of Qi Refining. Although we are better than you, we are outnumbered. If you join forces, we will naturally be defeated."

He paced back and forth, a smile on his rough face: "But now you are bitten by the Spirit Sealing Bee, and your spiritual energy is stagnant and difficult to flow... But you still want to guard Xie Cheng and risk your life for him?"

Most of the people's strength had been sealed, and they were already frightened and terrified. After hearing what Wu Hao said, they thought he was giving them a choice.

Thinking they had a way out, some people immediately became delighted and said hastily, "Fellow Daoist Wu, what are you talking about! We were hired to take the reward and make this trip to earn a few spiritual stones to make a living. Why would we lose our lives!"

Someone else, with tears streaming down his face, echoed, "Yes, yes, Brother Wu, please let us go. We will just pretend that we didn't see or hear anything."

Xie Cheng stood in front of Xie Zhixun, covering his chest with a grim look on his face.

Wu Hao looked at his two brothers, his eyes full of mockery.

He pointed at his own magic weapon, as if he was thinking.

"It's not impossible." But the next second, Wu Hao's magic weapon suddenly activated, and two poison-tempered sleeve arrows shot out with a "swoosh", flashing two cold lights.

The two people who had just begged for mercy covered their necks in disbelief and tried to open their mouths, but they could not say anything. They only made some "ho ho" sounds and then fell down and died.

The brothers Wu Qian and Wu Shi standing nearby laughed heartily along with Wu Hao when they saw this. It was a laugh that came from teasing others and being pleased by it.

The others felt a chill in their hearts, knowing that they could not escape this disaster today.

After laughing enough, Wu Hao walked up to the two corpses and searched around, finding some scattered belongings and a storage bag.

A cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining beside him trembled and took out his storage bag on his own initiative: "Wu, Fellow Daoist Wu, all my belongings are in it, can you spare me——"

Wu Hao took the storage bag, and before he could finish speaking, he stabbed it with a knife and then pulled it out without any care.

Shi Yu, who was hiding in the distance, narrowed his pupils, knowing that the three brothers were not only out to take money and property, but also intended to kill them all.

Although Xie Cheng has never revealed his identity, judging from his words and actions, it is not difficult to guess that he is of great importance and there must be a powerful force behind him.

Therefore, in order to avoid today's incident from being exposed and being sought out for settlement by the forces behind them in the future, Wu Hao and others must kill all the people present.

She left under the pretext of going to the bathroom and avoided the Feng Ling Bee's plot. Probably because of her low cultivation level, Wu Hao and the other two didn't care and let her leave.

But if the three of them wanted to kill her and silence her, she must be among them.

If nothing unexpected happens, I should have something similar to the tracking technique on me.

Sure enough, just as Shi Yu finished his thought, he heard Wu Qian say, "Brother, there is a young boy who has gone to relieve himself."

Wu Hao smiled jokingly after hearing this and looked in the direction of Shi Yu: "Oh, isn't he back?"

really.

She was some distance away and was deliberately concealing her breath. The range of a sixth-level Qi Refining cultivator's spiritual awareness was very limited, so he should not have been able to discover her.

It seemed that just as she had guessed before, these three people had already used some means without her knowledge, which made it easy for them to find her.

If that was the case, even if I wanted to leave, I would be tracked by several people.

There was a difference of three levels in cultivation, so it was unlikely that he could escape. Shi Yu tightly grasped the Spirit Traveling Talisman, came out from behind the tree, and flew to Xie Cheng's side.

Xie Zhixun was so frightened that his face turned pale and his eyelashes trembled. He grabbed Xie Cheng's arm, then turned his head to look at Shi Yu silently with tears in his eyes, with a look of pure helplessness.

Xie Cheng smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry for causing trouble for you, little Taoist friend. I didn't know how to restrain myself and act too flamboyantly."

"Yeah." Shi Yu glanced at him, acknowledging what he said, with a look that said, "It's good that you know."

It's not that she is without temper. Xie Cheng doesn't understand the principle of not showing off one's wealth. Just when he was accompanying the young master to pick herbs, he spent a lot of money to hire so many people to protect him. He also served him with third-grade spiritual grains and vegetables along the way, as if he was afraid that others would not know how wealthy he was.

Now, it has attracted covetousness and put many people's lives in danger.

It's not that the victim is guilty, but that the metaverse is just so cruel, and the competition for cultivation resources has always been the main theme. She thought that Xie Cheng was older and should understand this principle better.

"..." Xie Cheng was choked by her reaction and looked away awkwardly.

He was feeling annoyed and regretful at this moment.

Because of the young master's illness, the master and servant have lived in the ice room for many years and rarely interact with people. This time, it was a rare opportunity for them to take the young master out for a walk, and they could not resist his request to come to the mountains to look for spiritual plants.

Xie Cheng originally thought that they were just wandering around the outskirts of the mountains, and since he had issued a reward to recruit so many people to protect them, there would be no danger.

But I didn’t expect that… human hearts are hard to predict.

Over there, Wu Hao and the other two could no longer hold back.

The Soul Sealing Bee has miraculous effects, but they are short-lived, and the higher the level of cultivation, the lower the effect.

"Everyone is here, big brother, let's do it."

Wu Hao nodded and glanced at Shi Yu: "Be careful, I wonder if this kid has any more talismans on him."

Previously, snakes and insects were swarming in the poisonous swamp, and everyone saw Shi Yu use a talisman to clear out a space.

After saying this, the three men flashed into the crowd and started killing with their swords.
