"This young man is really infatuated with her." Du Feng commented on Young Man in his heart after seeing this. That was an iron-striped snake. Although it was very small and only as thick as a human thumb, it was extremely poisonous. It was fine to use a sword to cut it off, but to use his hand to block it was equivalent to courting death.
"Ah!"
Seeing the iron-striped snake coming at her, Qing 'er screamed in fear and closed her eyes. Young Man, on the other hand, looked like a martyr. She planned to block the iron-striped snake at all costs. At worst, she would be bitten. The iron-striped snake was a very strange poisonous snake. It could only bite people once in its life. Under normal circumstances, it would not attack with venom. It would only catch some mosquitoes, geckos, and other small things to eat. But once it attacked, it would inject all its venom into the enemy's body, and it would not stop until it was exhausted.
Therefore, if Young Man was bitten, Qing 'er would naturally be out of danger. However, it would be very difficult to detoxify this kind of poison in the primeval forest. Just when the two of them thought they were going to die, they saw Du Feng reach out his hand and grab the vital part of the iron-striped snake. He squeezed it to death with his fingers. Then, he opened the weak part of the neck with his fingernails and skillfully took out the snake's gallbladder and inner core.
"Ah, I'm not dead!"
After a while, when she felt that she was not bitten, Qing 'er opened her eyes. She found that Young Man was staring at Du Feng in a daze, as if she was looking at a monster.
"I've been poisoned before, so I'm not afraid of this thing."
Du Feng also knew that his behavior was too abrupt, so he hurriedly explained. Fortunately, he had just made up a story, saying that he was disfigured by some kind of bufotoxin. Some bufotoxin did have a restraining effect on snake venom.
"Wow, it turns out that you have such an ability."
Looking at Du Feng with admiration, Qing 'er almost rushed over and kissed him. People who were disfigured by bufotoxin had such an advantage. They were not afraid of the horrifying iron-striped snake.
"Nonsense. If you have such an ability, why don't you let the snake bite you?"
Originally, the three of them cooperated well, and Young Man was also impressed by Du Feng. However, someone stirred up trouble, saying that he was not afraid of snake venom. Since he wasn't afraid of the snake's venom, why did he grab the Iron Thread Snake's weak spot and kill it? Wouldn't it be better to bite it directly?
"Are you out of your mind? Do you have to be bitten by a snake just because you're not afraid of the snake's venom? Why don't you let the snake bite you instead?"
Before Du Feng could open his mouth, Qing 'er scolded him back. The person who was scolded was a skinny, tanned male martial artist in his thirties. This person didn't look strong, but his eyes were especially bright. A pair of triangular eyes flashed with a cold light, revealing a bit of viciousness.
At that moment, a group of Iron Wire Snakes emerged from the ground without any warning. Because there were some fallen leaves and dried branches under their feet, no one noticed them. Attacks from above could still be blocked with weapons. With so many Iron Wire Snakes suddenly burrowing out from under his feet, it was really hard to resist.
"Not good!"
All of a sudden, Du Feng's strength rose, and he directly pushed Green 'er and Young Man into the air, while he himself dashed forward at full speed. Unfortunately, he was still one step too late. A dagger was silently stabbed into Old Zhong's back. Then, the dagger was twisted violently.
Bam!
At the same time, Du Feng had already rushed to the front and killed the person who stabbed him in the back with a palm strike. He took out an elixir pill and fed it to Old Zhong. Unfortunately, he was still one step too late. The person who stabbed him in the back was clearly prepared. He smeared the dagger with a lethal poison that could seal one's throat upon contact and deliberately stirred it.
Old Zhong's heart had already been smashed into pieces, and the poison had already spread throughout his body. His physical body was already beyond saving. Du Feng didn't say much. He waved his hand and kept Old Zhong's soul. Everything happened very quickly. Qing 'er only reacted when she knew everything was over.
"Father!"
"Master!"
She and Young Man shouted almost at the same time, but it was all too late. Even Du Feng, who reacted so quickly, couldn't save Old Zhong, let alone the two of them who were new. If they couldn't even deal with the Iron Wire Snakes, how could they talk about saving the enemy?
"The few of you are so vicious. Aren't you afraid of retribution for attacking an old man?"
Du Feng returned to Qing 'er and Young Man's side and opened a Genuine Elemental Shield to cover them. Since he learned the Nine Cycles Golden Dragon Body, he rarely opened a Genuine Elemental Shield. Because his body was stronger than the Genuine Elemental Shield, he didn't need to wear any armor or shield.
Today, he opened the Genuine Elemental Shield purely to protect Qing 'er and Young Man. Otherwise, with their skills, they would definitely die here. There were 20 people in this team. Except for Old Zhong, Qing 'er, Young Man, and Du Feng himself, the rest were all from the other side. Now that Old Zhong was disabled, there were only three of them left to fight against 16 people. The situation was indeed not optimistic.
"They are just a few untouchables. I advise you not to intervene."
It was the triangular-eyed male martial artist who spoke. To a certain extent, a person's appearance reflected his character. This man had a vicious look. Sure enough, he was as terrible as a poisonous snake. He felt that Du Feng was very strong and not easy to deal with, so he suggested leaving Qing 'er and Young Man alone.
"You haven't learned your lesson about Li Qiuchan. What's the benefit of continuing to be the lackeys of the aristocratic families?"
Du Feng's words enlightened Qing 'er and Young Man. Only now did they understand what was going on. It turned out that the team that Old Zhong had painstakingly organized had actually been taken advantage of by others. These people who joined the team looked like ordinary civilian martial artists. In fact, several of them were Childes in disguise, and the rest were their attendants. These attendants were responsible for killing Old Zhong and the others, and then using them as bait.
"Li Qiuchan is a good-for-nothing. If she hadn't failed, we wouldn't have had to spend so much effort."
The triangular-eyed male martial artist was very strong. Even Li Qiuchan didn't take him seriously. In fact, the two of them were doing the same thing. It was just that Li Qiuchan directly led the team of Childes and took one or two poor martial artists as bait. He pretended to be a civilian martial artist, and then killed the innocent people in the team and used them as bait. In a word, they were killing civilian martial artists to provide services to the rich.
"Brat, did you kill Li Qiuchan?"
Another fat man in the team stared at Du Feng with a pair of big, bell-like eyes, as if he wanted to eat him up. This person was also very familiar with Li Qiuchan. He could be considered as her secret admirer. The person who could kill Li Qiuchan was certainly not weak. Therefore, the fat man was a little nervous, and he stared at Du Feng.
"So what? Today, none of you will leave alive."
