Grassroots Travel: The Star Lord of Another World

The Dark Alliance did not come after them, and the silence around them made them even more nervous. Gao Xingchen and the others hid behind a dense bush, and the atmosphere was terribly depressing.

"Are we worrying too much? Maybe they really just changed their route." Xuan Feng lowered his voice, trying to break the suffocating silence.

"Impossible." Nan Li coldly denied his guess, "The Dark Alliance has always acted cautiously and ruthlessly, and will never let go of any enemy easily, not to mention..."

She paused, and looked around sharply, "The terrain here is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If it were me, I would definitely set up an ambush and capture the enemy in one fell swoop."

Gao Xingchen's heart sank. Nan Li's analysis coincided with his. Could it be that their actions this time had already fallen into the trap of the "Dark Alliance"?

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a burst of footsteps in the distance, which got closer and closer and became clearer and clearer.

"Here they come!" Gao Xingchen reminded in a low voice, and everyone immediately held their breath and clenched their weapons.

However, the expected enemy did not appear, and the one who appeared before them was Lin Feng!

"Lin Feng? Why are you here?" Xuan Feng asked in surprise, "Aren't you responsible..."

Lin Feng's eyes flickered, and he stammered, "I...I was worried about your safety, so I came to check on you."

His tone was obviously a little flustered, his eyes were erratic, and he didn't dare to look at everyone. Gao Xingchen felt a little suspicious. Lin Feng's behavior was too abnormal. There must be something wrong!

"Don't worry about it for now. We must leave here as soon as possible." Gao Xingchen said decisively. He vaguely felt that a dangerous aura was approaching.

Without any hesitation, everyone quickly evacuated their hiding place. However, they had just walked a short distance when they were surrounded by the Dark Alliance!

Countless torches lit up instantly, illuminating the entire forest as if it were daytime. Dense swarms of "Dark Alliance" soldiers poured in from all directions, full of murderous intent.

The leader, wearing a black robe and a hideous mask on his face, was the leader of the "Dark Alliance" - Black Wind!

"Gao Xingchen, you finally fall into my hands!" Heifeng's tone was cold, with a bloodthirsty light flashing in his eyes.

A fierce battle was about to break out, and Gao Xingchen and others fought hard. However, the offensive of the "Dark Alliance" was like a tide, one wave after another, as if endless.

"How can their intelligence be so accurate?" Gao Xingchen thought to himself as he fended off the enemy's attacks, "Is there a traitor among us?"

At this moment, Ling'er suddenly exclaimed: "Oh no! There's something wrong with these supplies!"

It turned out that when Ling'er was counting the seized supplies, she found that some of the items had been tampered with and might pose a threat to the team.

Gao Xingchen's heart sank. Things seemed to be becoming more and more complicated...

Gao Xingchen turned around abruptly and looked at Ling'er, his eyes full of disbelief: "What did you say? Is there a problem with the supplies?"

Ling'er nodded solemnly and held up a bag of opened herbs: "Look, these herbs have been soaked in special potions. Although it is not visible on the surface, if taken for a long time, it will gradually erode a person's spiritual power, and in severe cases it may even lead to obsession!"

Gao Xingchen felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. If these tampered materials were not discovered in time, the consequences would be disastrous! "Lin Feng!" He gritted his teeth and spat out the name, already having a guess in his mind.

Nan Li had been secretly observing Lin Feng's every move. Seeing Gao Xingchen was furious, she stepped forward and handed him a jade slip: "Look for yourself."

The jade slip records the clues that Nanli has investigated during this period, including the footage of Lin Feng's secret contact with members of the "Dark Alliance" and evidence of his passing of intelligence. The truth is now revealed!

Gao Xingchen's hand holding the jade slip trembled slightly. He knew that Nan Li was always meticulous and never fought an unprepared battle. Since she had put the evidence in front of him, it meant that the fact that Lin Feng had betrayed him was beyond doubt.

Anger, disappointment, heartache...all kinds of emotions surged in Gao Xingchen's heart. He never imagined that the brother who had always fought side by side with him would betray the entire team because of personal grudges!

"Gao Xingchen, are you okay?" Nan Li looked at Gao Xingchen with a trace of worry in her eyes. She knew Gao Xingchen. He was a man of great loyalty and loyalty, and he must be suffering at this moment.

Gao Xingchen took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart. He knew that now was not the time to hold Lin Feng accountable. The most urgent task was to resolve the crisis at hand first.

"Ling'er, check all the supplies immediately and destroy all those that have been tampered with. We must not let them flow into the market and endanger more people!" Gao Xingchen gave the order decisively.

"Yes!" Ling'er nodded solemnly and turned to devote herself to her busy work.

"Everyone else, follow me to break out!" Gao Xingchen gave an order, and everyone stopped hesitating, drew their weapons, and launched a fierce attack on the encirclement of the "Dark Alliance".

The battle was extremely fierce. Although Gao Xingchen and others were powerful, the "Dark Alliance" had more people and was well prepared, so they were stuck in a tough fight.

"Hahaha, Gao Xingchen, you can't escape today!" Heifeng laughed wildly and directed his men to besiege Gao Xingchen and others.

At this moment, in order to protect Gao Xingchen from the attack, Xuanfeng was unfortunately hit by the hidden weapon of the "Dark Alliance" and fell in a pool of blood.

"Xuanfeng!" Gao Xingchen's eyes were bloodshot, his heart was filled with grief and self-blame. If he had not been so careless and failed to discover Lin Feng's conspiracy early, Xuanfeng would not have been injured!

The offensive of the "Dark Alliance" is getting more and more fierce. Gao Xingchen and his companions are fighting and retreating, and the situation is precarious...

Xuan Feng groaned, his body swayed, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He covered his chest, his face as pale as paper.

"Xuanfeng!" Gao Xingchen was shocked and hurriedly supported the staggering Xuanfeng.

"It's okay, just a minor injury." Xuan Feng forced a smile, but his violent coughing made his speech intermittent, "Cough cough... Don't worry, you won't die..."

"You are still trying to be brave at this hour!" Ling'er anxiously checked Xuanfeng's injuries, frowning, "The hidden weapon is poisonous, you must treat it as soon as possible!"

Gao Xingchen's heart sank. Xuanfeng's injury was more serious than he thought, and the poison had begun to spread. Right now, they were surrounded by the "Dark Alliance" and could not break out to find a doctor.

"Damn it!" Gao Xingchen pounded the ground hard, his eyes full of self-blame and worry. If he hadn't discovered Lin Feng's betrayal in time, Xuan Feng wouldn't have been injured.

"Hahaha, Gao Xingchen, today is the day you die!" Seeing this, Heifeng laughed triumphantly, "Brothers, kill them all! Don't spare any of them!"

Members of the "Dark Alliance" came like a tide, and Gao Xingchen and others stood back to back, fighting desperately.

"Roar!"

A deafening roar of beasts was heard, and suddenly several huge beasts appeared beside Gao Xingchen. They bared their fangs and claws, looking extremely ferocious, and instantly tore the "Dark Alliance" members who rushed up into pieces.

"This is..." Ling'er looked at these suddenly appearing beasts in surprise, her eyes full of disbelief.

Gao Xingchen took a deep breath, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He was a beast tamer and had the ability to communicate with wild beasts. In order to protect his companions, he released his power and summoned nearby wild beasts to help.

With the addition of the beasts, the situation of the battle turned around instantly. The pressure on Gao Xingchen and others was suddenly reduced, and they took the opportunity to break out.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly fell from the sky and blocked their way.

"Lin Feng!" Gao Xingchen spat out the name with gritted teeth, his eyes burning with rage.

"Gao Xingchen, just surrender, you have no way to escape!" Lin Feng looked at Gao Xingchen coldly, without a trace of emotion in his eyes.

"Why did you betray us?" Gao Xingchen asked, suppressing his anger.

"Betrayal?" Lin Feng sneered, "I have never been loyal to you, I am just using you!"

"You..." Gao Xingchen was furious and clenched his fists.

"Stop talking nonsense, today it's either you die or I die!" Lin Feng drew his sword and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Gao Xingchen.

A war is about to break out...
