Lin Qian and the others followed behind Nanshin as they approached the withered forest.
After entering the withered forest, as expected, the dense fog that covered the sky had already dissipated. Under the illumination of the bright moonlight, the withered forest's scenery was completely revealed.
Because of Nanshin's existence, there were many walking corpses moving around them. Although they occasionally looked at them with flickering green flames in their eye sockets, they were still well-behaved and didn't make any rash moves.
After a period of time, Lin Qian estimated that they had almost reached the center of the withered forest. At this moment, Nanshin, who was walking in front, also stopped in his tracks. The walking corpses that were following him also stopped in their tracks.
Nanshin, who was in front of them, extended his hand and silently chanted something. The soil under the withered trees surged and actually moved on its own.
As the withered trees moved, the soil on the ground also rolled and parted, revealing a huge and deep hole. From this dark hole, Lin Qian couldn't clearly see what was at the bottom.
Lin Qian walked to this hole and condensed lightning soul power that flickered with lightning. It turned into a ball that hovered above his palm. Following this, he pushed his hand forward, and the lightning soul power ball continuously expanded as it entered the hole.
The lightning soul power condensed into a ball that flickered with soul light, completely illuminating the situation in the hole.
Below the hole was a long slope formed by soil, and no one knew where it led to.
"The Dangyuan Sect's treasury is below. Let's go." A smile appeared on Nanshin's pale face, and he seemed extremely horrifying.
Lin Qian nodded silently and said, "Before we go down, I still have something to do."
"Huh?" Nanshin looked at Lin Qian doubtfully. He didn't understand what else he had to do.
Lin Qian turned around and looked at Lei Qian and the others with a disdainful expression. "You guys can scram now. You don't have the right to touch this ancient sect's treasury."
Hearing Lin Qian's words, Ye Xin's eyes flashed with a strange light. Then, her expression turned into surprise as she looked at Lin Qian.
Lei Qian and the other four also had ugly expressions as they looked at Lin Qian. Clearly, they were very surprised by Lin Qian's words.
"Lin Qian, what is the meaning of this?" Lei Qian was the first to speak, angrily questioning Lin Qian.
Ding Zhirong and Zhao Haiming were about to speak up, but after hearing Lei Qian's words, they shut their mouths. Beside them, Li Letian and Wang Lanxin were also holding hands tightly, not saying a word.
"On the account that we're from the same sect, I can let you guys retreat to those ruins and have some leftovers. As for this treasury, don't even think about it." Lin Qian waved his hand impatiently at Lei Qian and the rest.
"You …" Lei Qian pointed a finger at Lin Qian. After a long while, he angrily waved his hand. "Lin Qian, I've misjudged you."
After speaking, Lei Qian turned around and left the way he came. The undead army did not obstruct him under Nan Xin's restraint.
Ding Zhirong and the other three also turned around and left, shooting him a disdainful glance before they left.
Nanshin sneered inwardly at the sight of this. "I really couldn't tell that this kid was so greedy and ruthless."
Following that, Nanshin came to Lin Qian's side. "How about it? Do you need me to do you a small favor? Get them …"
"No need. They're from the same sect after all. Just get them to scram." Lin Qian watched from afar. When he saw that Lei Qian and the rest had left the range of the undead army, he turned around and pointed to the entrance of the cave. "Lead the way."
Nanshin nodded with a smile and led the way. Lin Qian tightly held onto Ye Xin's hand as they walked down the cave. When he turned around, he saw that the undead army was also following behind them.
As they walked down the slope, Lin Qian condensed lightning soul power all over his body and illuminated his surroundings with a flickering soul light.
At this moment, after Lei Qian and the others left the army of zombies, they sprinted madly and only stopped when they reached the ruins.
"It seems that this matter isn't that simple. There must be something wrong." Lei Qian turned back to look in the direction they had come from as he stood on the empty brick road.
Ding Zhirong and the rest nodded in agreement when they heard Lei Qian's words.
Lin Qian's previous actions were nothing in Nanshin's eyes, but to Lei Qian and the rest, it was completely abnormal.
They were very clear about Lin Qian's character. He wasn't a greedy person at all.
Back then, the Nirvana Flame Bath was so magical that Lin Qian even took it out and shared it with them. It could be seen what kind of person he was.
Moreover, Nanshin's appearance was really strange. Lin Qian must have discovered something wrong and used this method to help them escape.
"Oh no, look ahead!" At this moment, Wang Lanxin suddenly screamed and pointed at the entrance to the ruins.
The others looked in the direction she was pointing and their faces were filled with shock.
They could clearly see that many undead had appeared at the entrance of the ruins and were rushing towards them.
"Damn it. This is obviously Nanshin's doing. There's something wrong." Lei Qian cursed inwardly as he looked at the two thousand undead in front of him. He immediately armed himself with an origin tool and prepared to fight at any time.
"Kill!"
At this moment, a battle cry suddenly rang out behind Lei Qian and the others. Looking back, they saw an armored general leading a group of soldiers charging towards them.
This general was Zhao Long. The heavily armored soldiers behind him straightened their spears and surged with soul power as they charged towards the undead.
The heavy armored soldiers led by Zhao Long clashed fiercely with the undead.
In the eyes of Lei Qian and the others, Zhao Long and the others were like a sharp spear that fiercely stabbed into the ranks of the undead.
"This …" Li Letian and Wang Lanxin were completely dumbfounded by this scene.
Ding Zhirong and Zhao Haiming came to Lei Qian's side and asked, "Could these be Lin Qian's men?"
Lei Qian, who had seen such a large group before, nodded silently. "That's right. They're all boss's men."
Lei Qian stared in front of him in shock. After a long while, he came to a sudden realization. "I understand now. Why did Boss want us to return to the ruins? It turns out that this group of people exists."
Lin Qian had driven them away not to leave the withered forest, but to head towards the ruins. He probably already knew that Zhao Long and the others were here.
"Let's go too!" Ding Zhirong finished arming himself with an origin tool and looked ahead.
Lei Qian nodded. Purple lightning emanated from his body as he took the lead.
At the same time, Lin Qian was waving his hand randomly as he walked along the slope. Ye Xin was confused. "Little Qian, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, just exercising a bit." Lin Qian smiled and continued looking ahead.
In his eyes, there was a tactical map that others couldn't see. On it, Lin Qian already knew that Lei Qian had met up with Zhao Long and the others.
Looking at Nanshin's back, Lin Qian narrowed his eyes. "I want to see who's going to eat who."
