"Chase after him!"
When Nangong Yan saw Du Feng run away, he was even more suspicious that he was the one who picked the Fire Lingzhi. With so many people and Old Ma leading the way, it would be a joke if the Fire Lingzhi was picked by someone else. No matter what, he had to snatch the Fire Lingzhi.
In his opinion, the Fire Lingzhi was already in his possession. Now that it was picked by someone else, it was equivalent to stealing their Nangong Family's things. However, he did not think that this natural treasure was created by nature. Whoever obtained it first would obtain it. Du Feng did not let Old Ma lead the way, nor did he borrow any of the Nangong Family's power. Why would he give it to him?
"Come, come, the Fire Lingzhi is with me. If you have the ability, come and take it."
Well, Du Feng really knew how to cause trouble. He was afraid that the Nangong Family did not enter the Meteorite Forest deep enough and purposely led them inside. Other than Nangong Yan and Old Ma, the others were all at the sixth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm and above for Cultivation. If he did not lead them deep into the Meteorite Forest, it would not be easy to fight.
"Did you hear that? The thing is definitely on this brat."
Originally, the guard captain wanted to persuade Nangong Yan not to be impulsive. Maybe he was chasing the wrong person. In the end, with Du Feng causing trouble, he could not persuade him even if he wanted to. He could only bite the bullet and chase after him. In the Meteorite Forest, it would be better if one was looking for something while walking slowly. A chase like this was the easiest to make people impatient.
In just a short while, Nangong Yan was already out of breath. Like an old ox in the summer sun, he breathed out hot air onto his mask, even his own vision was blocked.
"Ouch!"
In a moment of carelessness, he bumped into a standing meteorite next to him and howled in pain. Other than the pain from the collision, the heat was not light either.
"Young master, are you alright?"
The guard captain hurriedly helped him up and asked about his injuries.
"Don't worry about me, hurry up and chase after him. We must catch that brat."
Nangong Yan was currently in a fit of anger and gave the order to chase after Du Feng. No matter what, he had to catch up to him. Even skinning him alive would not be enough to vent his hatred. It would be best to extract his soul as well and search it thoroughly to find out what secrets he had. Even if he didn't bring the Fire Lingzhi with him, he must have hidden it somewhere. As long as he searched his soul, there was no secret that he couldn't find.
This chase was really lively. The terrain of the Meteorite Forest was complex, like a maze. Du Feng had already wandered in here a few times. Of course, he was more familiar with the place than them. After going around for a period of time, their people were confused.
"Did you see that person?"
The guard captain looked around. Not only was he unable to find Du Feng, but a few of his team members were also missing. Fortunately, he kept dragging Nangong Yan, so he didn't lose the Second Young Master.
"We didn't see anything. We were just following you."
These guards could be considered smart. They were afraid of getting lost, so they kept following the leader of the guards. The rest of the people were wandering aimlessly in the Meteorite Forest, either because they were too confident or because they had bad eyesight. He shouted as he wandered, trying to find his companions.
Pfft!
One of the guards walked and finally saw a companion flashing past in front of him. He was about to shout for him when he suddenly felt a chill on his back. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his back. What was going on? Why did his back feel cold in such a hot place? Following which, he felt a little cold on his chest. He looked down and saw that there was a big hole.
This was strange. The armor he wore this time might not have high defense, but it had strong heat insulation. The reason why he wasn't burned to death was because of this layer of armor. Why did he feel cool when his chest was broken? If he knew this would happen, he wouldn't have worn the armor. Just as he was about to take off the armor, he suddenly realized that his hands were no longer listening to his commands. They had even become a little blurry, and his breathing had gradually become difficult.
"So cold, so cold …"
At this moment, it wasn't as simple as feeling cool. He felt so cold. It was as though the end of the world had arrived. There was only darkness in front of him, and he couldn't see any hope. This was normal because his heart had been pierced through. Losing too much blood would inevitably make one feel cold. No matter how hot the environment was, as long as there wasn't enough blood, one would feel cold.
In addition to the roasting of the meteorite fire, all the blood in his body was dried up in a short while. The armor that had been broken could not withstand the erosion of the meteorite fire. Soon, even his corpse was ignited. The oil in the human body was a very good accelerant. In a short while, it was burned to a handful of ashes. Not even the bones were left. All that was left was a damaged armor shell, lying there quietly. It seemed to be a memorial. Someone had been here before.
"Young Master, use the voice transmission talisman to summon them."
The guard captain was a little worried that he couldn't catch up with Du Feng and got separated from everyone. Therefore, he asked Nangong Yan to use his special voice transmission talisman to summon everyone. His voice transmission talisman was made of special materials. Even in the meteorite forest, it wouldn't be burned. It could directly transmit the message to the divine senses of the guards.
"Everyone, listen up. Gather around me first!"
After Nangong Yan's message was sent out, he waited for the guards to gather around. As long as everyone didn't wander around, they should be able to find him soon. One thing was very strange. The leader, Old Ma, was also missing. Logically speaking, he was the most familiar with the road. How could he get lost?
In fact, Old Ma did have a selfish motive in the beginning. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to look for the Fire Lingzhi. If he found it first, he would hide it and pretend not to know. If it was really stolen by that kid just now, he could kill him first and then destroy the corpse to get the Fire Lingzhi. Therefore, even if he received Nangong Yan's message, he pretended not to hear it and continued to wander around in the meteorite forest.
Pfft!
He suddenly felt the back of his neck go numb. He was still a little confused about the situation and wanted to turn his head to take a look. In the meteorite forest, divine senses couldn't leave the body. He could only rely on seeing and listening. But he didn't know why his neck kept moving. No matter how hard he tried, it wouldn't turn back.
Strange. Could it be that the armor was too heavy or that he had been roasted for too long that his neck was numb? Old Ma tried to use his hands to turn his head back and heard a crisp crack. Then, his vision turned black and he didn't know anything.
This fool. Actually, his cervical vertebra was already broken. Therefore, no matter how his brain ordered it, it couldn't turn back. But his nerves weren't completely broken. His brain could still give orders to his arms. In the end, he didn't even count his strength and twisted his head off.
