"It's here, I finally found it."
Xiao Yang heaved a sigh of relief.
After checking the environment of the Three Pine Mountain, he checked the surroundings of the Three Pine Mountain. After confirming that there was no danger, he decided to make a trip up the mountain.
Just as Xiao Yang was about to make a move, he immediately heard a movement not far away.
Xiao Yang couldn't help but frown and temporarily held back his actions.
He scanned with his Divine Sense and immediately saw the place where the movement came from. It was a half-bloodied person squirming and looked somewhat familiar. The other party's expression was filled with fear and regret. His eyes were filled with tears and his face was covered in blood.
He could clearly see that his face had two deep scars from sharp claws. They were so deep that his bones could be seen. His nose was cut off and half of his mouth was missing. He looked extremely miserable.
This person was the leader of the Leopard Mercenary Group, nicknamed Leopard.
"So miserable?"
Xiao Yang muttered to himself.
Xiao Yang didn't take these people, including Qiu Wanjin, Chen Dalong, Chen Dahu, the three mercenary groups, and many rogue cultivators, to heart. It was only because everyone came to the Beast Forest that he temporarily accompanied them.
However, Xiao Yang actually felt pity for the leader of a mercenary group now that he had fallen to such a state.
"Forget it, I'll help you."
Xiao Yang temporarily put aside the idea of going up the Three Pine Mountain. His figure flickered a few times and instantly appeared in front of Leopard.
"Do you have any last words? I can help you bring them out."
Xiao Yang looked at Leopard calmly, squatted down, and spoke slowly with an expressionless face.
"Human, human?"
Leopard raised his head and saw clearly that it was a human cultivator.
He was somewhat in disbelief. Then, he immediately burst into tears and cried until he was in a mess.
"My people are all dead, sob sob …"
"And my mercenary companions, they died so miserably, so miserably …"
"I regret it so much. If I could do it all over again, I would definitely not enter the Beast Forest."
Yes, in a short span of a day, the Leopard Mercenary Group, Wolf Hound Mercenary Group, and Tiger Cat Mercenary Group were completely annihilated. Not a single one of them survived, and these mercenaries all died in front of the leopard. The leopard could only watch helplessly as they died miserably. In the end, with half of his life left, he jumped off the cliff and came here. He didn't expect to see Xiao Yang here. He thought that there were no more humans in the Beast Forest.
Thinking about it, his three mercenary groups had been completely annihilated. What kind of human could survive in the Beast Forest?
Therefore, when he saw Xiao Yang, a human, one could imagine how excited he was. This was a rare opportunity. He thought that he would never have the chance to see a human again.
Xiao Yang calmly waited and didn't rush him.
He could see that Leopard didn't have much time left. Right now, it was just the final radiance of the setting sun. With Leopard's injuries, even Xiao Yang was helpless. Moreover, Xiao Yang didn't intend to save Leopard. One must be clear that this was the Beast Forest and not the territory of the human race. It was already difficult for a human to survive, not to mention that he had to bring along a half-dead stranger.
Yes, to Xiao Yang, Leopard was just a passerby, a stranger. He was only willing to listen to Leopard's last words out of pity because they were both human cultivators.
After Leopard cried for a while, he had vented enough of his emotions and gradually calmed down. He knew that his injuries were serious and he didn't have much time left. He looked at Xiao Yang with a pleading gaze and said, "Fellow Daoist, I'm going to follow my brothers. Before I die, please go to the Xiao family and tell them that the Leopard Mercenary Group has failed and was completely annihilated."
"Okay."
Xiao Yang readily agreed.
For such a presumptuous request, Xiao Yang didn't feel embarrassed, so he didn't even think much and directly agreed.
"Hmm? You mean the Xiao family? "
After agreeing, Xiao Yang immediately became alert and caught a key word in Leopard's words — Xiao family.
Xiao Yang was a member of the Xiao family, whose home was in Donglin Town of Wuyang City.
Since when did the Xiao family have the ability to command the three major mercenary groups? And the mission location was actually in the Beast Forest? Xiao Yang knew nothing about this matter. This didn't make sense.
"What mission are you on? Xiao family is the Xiao family in Donglin Town of Wuyang City? "
Xiao Yang hurriedly asked.
Leopard nodded, then shook his head and said in a weak and feeble voice, "It's the Xiao family, but it's not the Xiao family in Donglin Town of Wuyang City. It's the Xiao family in the Middle Region. We're here to find the ancient jade of the Xiao family. Please."
Uh, puff.
After saying this, Leopard made a sound and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth. Then, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. Then, his head went limp and he fell to the ground. His whole body was motionless and he completely lost his vitality.
This person was dead.
Xiao Yang's eyes were unfocused. Even Leopard's death didn't make him take a second look. At this moment, he was shocked by the news Leopard had revealed.
When he left the Xiao family in Donglin Town for the first time, the Xiao family had given him an ancient jade and told Xiao Yang that the Xiao family in Donglin Town was just a branch of the Xiao family.
All this time, Xiao Yang couldn't find any news about the Xiao family's main family. He didn't expect to hear news about the Xiao family in the Beast Forest of the Beast Tribe's territory.
According to Leopard, the Xiao family's main family was looking for the ancient jade of the Xiao family.
It was easy to understand that the other two mercenary groups, the Wolf Dog Mercenary Group and the Tiger Cat Mercenary Group, must have been sent to the Beast Forest by the Xiao family because of this mission.
It turned out that the Xiao family's main family was in the Middle Region.
Xiao Yang's mind was greatly shocked and it took him a long time to calm down.
Awoo.
Roar.
Not far away, the roars of the Beast Tribe could be heard. Those auras were rapidly approaching Xiao Yang. Xiao Yang immediately became alert. It must be Leopard's blood and aura that attracted them.
Xiao Yang knew that he shouldn't stay here for long. He immediately stood up and said to the already dead Leopard, "Leopard, don't worry. I'll bring the news to the Xiao family."
After saying that, Xiao Yang immediately turned and left.
As soon as Xiao Yang left, several fierce beasts appeared around Leopard. They were the Double-Headed Tiger, Single-Horned Wolf, Long-Tongued Toad, Golden Python, Yin-Yang Lion, and other beasts.
They wandered around, sniffed, and looked around. Finally, they lowered their heads and walked in front of the leopard. They opened their mouths and ate it bite by bite. Soon, not even the bones of the leopard were left.
Xiao Yang had already arrived at the foot of Three Pine Mountain. He raised his head and looked at the towering Three Pine Mountain. He immediately used his movement technique and quickly flew up.
Although the mountain was high, Xiao Yang's current cultivation was not bad. In less than three minutes, Xiao Yang had already arrived at the top of the mountain and saw three pine trees with his own eyes.
"It's here."
Xiao Yang furrowed his brows as he looked at his surroundings and muttered to himself.
There was no one here. If other people came here, they wouldn't be able to find anything. However, Xiao Yang was different. He knew the Time Reflection Technique. This technique could reconstruct what had happened in the past.
