The Legend of the Netherworld

Lin Xiao, Mile and the other three were traveling through the forest. Their camp was on the other side of the river. Following their steps, they discussed the battle that had just taken place.

Yi Yuanyue smiled as he approached Lin Xiao. He covered Lin Xiao with his arm and said, "Little brother, it was really nice to cooperate with you in the fight just now. If it weren't for his special move, that guy would have been knocked down by us in less than ten moves."

Lin Xiao smiled slightly. Facing Yi Yuanyue's familiarity, he did not resist and even felt a little bit of intimacy.

He smiled and said, "What a pity! If only we had kept the three of them, we might have found a lot of treasures on them."

The four heard Lin Xiao's money-obsessed look.

"Ha ha ha ha"

Yi Yuanyue laughed heartily.

Mile and the other two chuckled softly.

"Have you four seen the three people who attacked me just now?" Lin Xiao asked with interest.

Mile frowned, his expression solemn. He turned back to look at Lin Xiao and said, "I've never seen this before. The Ancient Forest is so vast that there are all kinds of people. Plus, the Wolf King's secret technique is too powerful, so there are many people who are interested in him. You must be extra careful, little brother."

"That secret technique was framed by the wolf clan. I killed the Wolf King just to avenge my former brother. I got nothing in return." Lin Xiao replied immediately.

He thought to himself, "From this morning's encounter till now, these people seem to be good people, but one must be cautious and careful. It's impossible to tell the truth."

When Mile heard this, he stopped abruptly, his heart trembled, and his face became slightly gloomy, but he immediately continued to move forward. He wanted to say something but didn't say it.

Yi Yuanyue laughed loudly and said, "Who cares if it's a secret technique or not? It's all about personal luck. Now that my little brother has arrived at our camp, we must have a good fight and show them what kind of strength it takes to defeat the Wolf King."

Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with a glint of pride, and he said with a smile: "Then I will definitely go all out and leave no stone unturned."

So, the five of them walked through the forests, crossed the river, and went up along the river bank.

During this time, Fei Er and Ni Xiaozhou picked some wild flowers and made a wreath for Lin Xiao, which Ni Xiaozhou put on Lin Xiao's head.

Lin Xiao's bald head is too eye-catching. Now he is a celebrity in the Ancient Forest, so he needs to avoid unnecessary trouble.

They went up from the main river channel and came to a tributary stream. They continued to go deeper along the stream and finally stopped in an open area.

Lin Xiao looked at the four tents in front of him and asked in surprise, "How come your camp is built here and won't be destroyed by the little demons?"

Mile patiently explained, "Further along this stream is the middle layer of the Ancient Forest. There's a transparent barrier, and neither humans nor demons like to stay at this edge."

Lin Xiao nodded, indicating that he understood.

Yi Yuanyue brought out a large piece of snake meat from a tent and said happily, "Little brother, we just killed a snake demon yesterday, and we are just in time to welcome you."

Lin Xiao replied with a smile: "I've been craving snake meat recently, and now I'm eating it. It's really a double blessing."

Ni Xiaozhou and Fei Er stepped forward to take the snake meat away, and then started roasting it over a fire not far away. Lin Xiao also came over to help spread the ingredients.

Seeing that the snake meat dinner was about to be completed, Mile took out a small jar of wine, opened the lid, and the aroma of wine filled the air.

Mile then poured a glass of wine from the jar into a small cup and drank it in front of the four people. After drinking it, he let out a "hi" and said happily on his face: "Good wine."

Everyone began to eat the snake meat and drink the fine wine. Mile's face flushed, and with a smile on his face, he asked, "Little brother, when you were fighting the Wolf King, you were clearly knocked off the cliff. How did you get back up again? We couldn't help but worry about you when we were watching from afar."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao took a big sip of his wine and laughed boldly, "Actually, there's a small tree in the middle of the cliff. You can't see it from up high. You'll only know if you jump down. I've fought the Wolf King once before, and I escaped by jumping off the cliff."

After listening to this, Yi Yuanyue gave Lin Xiao a thumbs up and said with admiration, "Good, that's amazing."

Fei Er and Ni Xiaozhou looked at Lin Xiao with admiration on their faces.

Mile smiled knowingly and said, "Heroes have always emerged from youth. This is truly the true nature of a hero. Let us toast to the hero again."

The four of them picked up their glasses and toasted Lin Xiao. Seeing the atmosphere was right, Lin Xiao couldn't refuse, so he raised his glass one by one.

"The Wolf King is nothing. I will fight with the Green Water Snake Queen and see who is stronger," Lin Xiao boasted proudly.

Yi Yuanyue said with a smile: "Then little brother, you must fight with me first. Today, I will toast you."

Lin Xiao was secretly alert and realized that the atmosphere was a bit weird, but he couldn't resist their enthusiastic persuasion.

He drank the fine wine and boasted about his heroic fighting deeds, and drank glass after glass of wine under the admiration of the four people.

After a while, he was drunk and felt as if he was standing in the world and could become the king at any time.

Lin Xiao was already unsteady on his feet, but he still stood up, picked up his wine glass and walked over to Mile, saying drunkenly, "You can't do it, none of you four can. I can easily beat all of you here."

After saying that, he staggered and fell directly to the ground, falling heavily.

Although the four of them also had flushed faces, reeked of alcohol, and were swaying from side to side, they immediately stood up and went forward to see Lin Xiao.

Mile stepped forward, shook Lin Xiao's head and said, "Little brother, little brother, get up and continue drinking. The wine is not finished yet."

Seeing that Lin Xiao did not respond, Mile reached out to his red neck to check Lin Xiao's strength and pulse.

His face suddenly darkened, and he said solemnly, "There's no energy flowing through my body. I'm not using any energy to counteract the effects of the alcohol. I must be really drunk."

"Little brother, little hero, get up and let's have a sparring match." Yi Yuanyue pinched Lin Xiao's nose and said.

Seeing that Lin Xiao had no reaction and was still breathing normally through his nose, he immediately began to search Lin Xiao's body. He reached into Lin Xiao's leopard skin and took out a package, which contained three relics.

Mile immediately stopped him upon seeing this, angrily scolding, "What are you doing? This young man has so much trust in us, yet you're still coveting his treasures. If we become friends with the young hero now, and he achieves great things in the future, maybe we can also benefit from it."

Yi Yuanyue then put the package back into Lin Xiao's leopard skin.

Immediately afterwards, Mile and Yi Yuanyue helped Lin Xiao up, carried him into the tent, and placed him on a wooden bed covered with animal skins.

"Little brother, you look strong, but I didn't expect you to be so light. I can pick him up by myself." Yi Yuanyue said softly.

"That's not your concern," Mile said.

Mile called Ni Xiaozhou over and said seriously, "I'll leave this little brother to you. Take good care of him."

After saying that, Mile and Yi Yuanyue left the tent and closed the tent curtain. The two smiled at each other at the door.
