A Good Romance
.bqg6.cc
This was a herbalist team, with seven martial artists as guards and twelve herbalist farmers, all carrying bamboo baskets. There was also a red-clothed beauty who looked like the owner, a total of twenty people.
A herbalist team of this scale could only be considered a small-scale team in the Dark Demon Forest, with over a hundred or even over a thousand herbalist teams.
Ling Han's eyes swept over them. The seven guards were actually all in the Spiritual Ocean Tier, which was quite impressive. The one who sent the invitation was a sturdy man in his forties. He was tall and well-built, his arms were so thick that they surpassed Ling Han's waist, and his muscles were shockingly strong.
Without waiting for Ling Han to answer, the red-clothed woman spoke first, somewhat displeased, "Guard Wu, you want to recruit people into the team, why don't you ask for my opinion first?"
The burly man laughed and said, "Before we set off, we agreed that we would recruit a total of ten guards, but now we have only recruited seven. As the captain of the guards, of course I have the right to recruit people."
"That's because the others aren't qualified," the red-clothed woman said.
"He's qualified." The sturdy man pointed at Ling Han. "The fifth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, still not enough?"
What, such a youngster was actually at the fifth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier?
The others were shocked, feeling that Ling Han was too young.
"Miss Ding, let him join the team."
"Yeah, the fifth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, not weak."
The other guards all urged. The cultivation of the fifth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier wasn't high, but advancing to this level in his teens meant that Ling Han's background wasn't simple.
Although this was an extremely chaotic place, if there were sects like the Winter Moon Sect or the Half Moon Sect, then they could save lives at crucial moments. So, these people obviously wouldn't oppose Ling Han joining, adding insurance to their lives.
The red-clothed woman thought, and said, "Alright, but Guard Wu, you're responsible for making sure he doesn't cause trouble."
"Deal!" The sturdy man nodded with a smile, then cracked a smile at Ling Han, and said, "Little bro, how about one Origin Crystal a day? Such a good job isn't something you can encounter every day!"
Spiritual Ocean Realm warriors could only condense one Origin Crystal a month, but now, they could get one in a day. The treatment was indeed not bad.
Ling Han couldn't help but laugh. "You guys are talking to yourselves. I don't think I said I wanted to join you."
"Hmm, so you still have an opinion?" The woman in red wasn't very happy to begin with. When she heard that Ling Han was against joining them, she immediately became even more dissatisfied. "How dare you! Slap his face!"
Ling Han shook his head. He felt that he was really unjustly implicated. He was just taking a stroll and didn't provoke anyone. How did he get into trouble? Could it be that he really had a troublesome constitution and would cause trouble wherever he went?
"Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Angered, he raised his hand and slapped the red-clothed woman.
"Stop!" The seven guards shouted at the same time and moved to block Ling Han.
These people's tier varied, but the weakest was at the sixth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, while the strongest reached the ninth layer. However, none of them had battle prowess that surpassed their tier. After all, most of them were very normal.
Ling Han laughed lightly, and instantly, sword intent burst forth. Xiu, xiu, xiu, xiu, seven flashes of Sword Qi shot out, slicing towards the seven guards.
What was his battle prowess? When he was at the first layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, he had sixteen stars, and now it shot up to twenty stars. Compared to the strongest person on the other side, his battle prowess surpassed eleven stars. This was an absolute suppression. Thus, within the seven flashes of Sword Qi, the seven guards were sent flying at the same time.
Fortunately, Ling Han was merciful and only left a wound on each of their chests. Otherwise, one strike would've taken their lives.
Pa, the red-clothed woman's face was slapped solidly, and three of her teeth were knocked out.
"Don't always look at people with dog eyes. This slap is a small lesson for you. If there's a next time, I'll take your life," Ling Han said coldly.
The red-clothed woman clenched her teeth and had an expression of disbelief on her pretty face. Firstly, Ling Han was only at the fifth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, yet he could send her seven guards flying with one strike. Secondly, this guy actually dared to hit her!
She was a noble daughter of the Ding Family, and she was as beautiful as a flower. Was this guy blind to even lay his hands on such a beautiful face?
Ling Han turned and left.
Whether it was the seven guards or the farmers, they were all silent. Ling Han's strength surpassed their imagination, and they still hadn't recovered from the shock.
"A bunch of trash!" the red-clothed woman rebuked angrily. She covered her red and swollen pretty face, and said, "Quickly go to Rising Wind Stronghold, Clan Brother Gao Yang is there. Ask him to deal with that damned brat!"
"Miss Ding, that youngster has the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier at such a young age, and his battle prowess is even more shocking. He definitely has a great background, so why don't we just let it go?" the brawny man surnamed Wu advised. Since he was the one who invited her, he felt somewhat responsible.
"Hmph, in the Dark Devil Forest, so what if he has a great background? He died in vain!" The red-clothed woman's gaze was bitter; she couldn't swallow this insult.
"Let's go!"
The group continued forward.
After walking for half a day, a stronghold appeared in front of Ling Han. This was the territory of the Gust Demon Clan, providing a place to shelter from the wind and rain for martial artists. Ling Han also wanted to inquire about the Crimson Red Chilling Ice Grass, so he entered the stronghold at the price of one Origin Crystal.
The stronghold wasn't too big, but it had the area of a small village. The outer perimeter was made of sturdy tree trunks as a defensive wall, while the houses inside were made of bamboo, with extremely poor soundproofing.
This place really had all sorts of people. Ling Han noticed that there were a great many women dressed in revealing clothes standing by the roadside, casting flirtatious glances at the passersby. If they caught their eye, they would leave in a group, and very soon, moaning sounds that could make one's blood boil could be heard from within the bamboo houses.
For martial artists, after experiencing a tense adventure, they naturally hoped to "relax" a bit. Where there was a need, there would be a market. Even in a dangerous place like the Dark Devil Forest, the most ancient industry was nurtured.
As Ling Han walked, he was obviously teased by these women. He ignored them and directly arrived at a restaurant.
He casually ordered a few things, mainly to find people to inquire about the situation.
"Hey, did you guys hear? The famous Fairy Zhu came here a few days ago."
"What, Zhu Xuan Er, known as the number one beauty in the north region?"
"Is she really that beautiful?"
"More than that, I think she should be called the number one beauty in the world!"
"However, since she dared to come to the Dark Devil Forest, isn't she afraid of walking into a tiger's den?"
"Hehe, don't know how many people want to take this beauty as their personal pet. Moreover, this is the Dark Devil Forest. If someone is lost here, even the Half Moon Sect can't do anything …"
"You don't have a share, anyway."
"Pei, you don't have a share either."
Hearing everyone's words, Ling Han shook his head. Zhu Xuan Er was only in the Spiritual Pedestal Tier, and if she encountered a Flower Blossom Tier warrior, she wouldn't even have the chance to escape. To think she dared to come here alone.
He raised his wine cup, moved closer to a table of three, and said, "Brothers, let me ask you guys, is there a place where cold and heat interweave?"
