"But so what if he has the strength of an Iron Sword rank? We are also of the Iron Sword rank, and there are so many of us. Killing him in this place is as easy as flipping a hand!" someone said coldly.
"That's right. Killing him here is as easy as flipping a hand. We must avenge Guo Song!" Lu Bai added.
After that, the four of them continued to search the surroundings. However, this time, they did not move individually, but in groups of two.
Not far away, Linlong frowned. He knew that if there were no changes in this place, it would be difficult for him to escape the four of them. This was because this place was too small.
Unknowingly, an hour had passed.
In this hour, although Linlong had been looking for opportunities to launch sneak attacks, the four of them were extremely cautious, so he had no chance at all.
And now, he was in trouble. Because of his constant retreat, he had retreated to the edge of the forest, and there were no tall trees behind him to hide behind. If the four of them continued to press forward, he would definitely be exposed, and then he would be surrounded by the four of them.
Seeing this, the only thing he could do was to circle to the right, and then charge into the forest on the right while being pursued by the four of them. Linlong calculated in his mind.
This was not a good idea, and he could easily be surrounded by the four of them. However, he had no other choice now, so this was the only way.
Just as Linlong was about to use Iron Stride to rush to the right, there was suddenly a strong spatial fluctuation on the right side.
This is?
Linlong could not help but look to the right.
He was not the only one who felt it. Lu Bai, Wang Ran, and the others also felt it, so they all turned to look.
The moment they turned their heads, a few ferocious beasts suddenly appeared from that place. These ferocious beasts were all Iron Sword rank ferocious beasts. As soon as they appeared, they noticed Linlong, and immediately rushed toward him.
"That Linlong is over there!"
The movements of the ferocious beasts immediately allowed Lu Bai, Wang Ran, and the others to see where Linlong was hiding.
"Let him be trapped by the ferocious beasts first, then we can sit back and reap the benefits!" Lu Bai shouted.
Linlong knew that if he continued to stay where he was, he would really be trapped by these ferocious beasts as Lu Bai said. Then, even if he killed these ferocious beasts, he would still be captured by Lu Bai and the others.
Therefore, he used Iron Stride immediately. However, he did not lead these ferocious beasts toward any one of Lu Bai and the others, but directly ran toward the place where the spatial fluctuation appeared.
The reason was because he could clearly feel that there was a spatial crack there.
When he rushed over, the beasts naturally pounced on him. Linlong didn't dare to fight them head-on. He could only use the Iron Striped Steps to dodge.
However, where could he hide in such a small space? Therefore, in a short period of time, he was injured by these two beasts and suffered quite a bit of injury.
However, Linlong couldn't care less. With the strength of his body technique, he charged forward. Then, he rushed into the spatial rift the moment the beasts surrounded him.
"Where did he go?" Linlong said., "Lin said." Linlong's Sword,.
"Where is the spatial crack?!" Lu Bai and the others, who were more experienced, shouted.
After confirming this, they did not stay where they were, and directly rushed toward the ferocious beasts. After a round of fighting, they killed these ferocious beasts. What made them heave a sigh of relief was that the spatial crack still existed after killing these ferocious beasts.
"Senior Brothers, what should we do?" Wang Ran asked after killing the ferocious beasts.
"Pass through this spatial crack and kill Linlong!" The other three said without hesitation.
Immediately, the few of them passed through the spatial crack.
After passing through the spatial crack, Linlong found himself in a familiar place. After taking a few more steps, he was sure that he was at the place where he met Yan Dong and the others.
Could it be that he had returned? Linlong couldn't help but ask this question.
At this moment, the sounds of people and ferocious beasts fighting could be heard.
Linlong hurriedly walked forward. After walking for a while, he saw a few people. They were none other than Yan Dong and the rest.
Other than Xiao Bing, the others were there.
The few of them were dealing with two ferocious beasts.
At this moment, Yan Dong and the others also saw Linlong. Naturally, they were happy to see him.
After killing the two ferocious beasts, they hurried over.
"Little Brother Lin, we thought we would never see you again," one of them said with a smile.
After smiling, Linlong asked, "Are you guys still at the original place?"
Hearing this, Yan Dong could not help but sigh. Then, he said, "That's right, we are still at the original place. After searching for so long, we still could not find the way out."
After a short pause, he asked, "Little Brother Lin, you should have gone to the space created by the Runic Storm, right?"
"It should be the space created by the Runic Storm within these incomplete Runic Formations." Linlong nodded. "This space is very small. I found a spatial crack and walked out. Then, I met you guys."
Although he met Wang Ran, Lu Bai, and the others in the space, Linlong did not plan to tell Yan Dong and the others. Of course, he would only tell them if they could follow him out.
"From the looks of it, it will be difficult for us to leave this place." Ah Sheng could not help but sigh.
At this moment, a series of footsteps came from behind him. At the same time, there was the sound of people talking.
Linlong's brows immediately furrowed. He could tell that the people behind him were Lu Bai, Wang Ran, and the others. They had obviously followed him out after killing the ferocious beasts.
Lu Bai, Wang Ran, and the others quickly walked in front of Linlong, Yan Dong, and the others.
Seeing that Linlong was actually walking together with Yan Dong and the others, and seemed to be on good terms with them, Lu Bai, Wang Ran, and the others could not help but frown.
At first, they were happy to see Linlong. Who would have thought that Linlong seemed to know Yan Dong and the others?
They knew Yan Dong and the others, and knew that there were three Iron Sword rank people among them.
If Linlong joined forces with Yan Dong and the others, the four of them would be the ones at a disadvantage.
"Eh, Lu Bai, are you guys also trapped here?" Seeing Lu Bai and the others, Yan Dong could not help but ask.
"That's right, we are also trapped here." Lu Bai nodded, then continued, "However, when we were fighting with Linlong just now, he killed one of our people, Guo Song!"
The reason why he said this was naturally to find out how Yan Dong and the others' relationship with Linlong was. If it was just average, then they would not have to worry about dealing with Linlong.
"Guo Song?" Hearing Lu Bai's words, Yan Dong and the others revealed surprised expressions. They knew that Guo Song had the strength of an Iron Sword rank.
"That's right, he killed Guo Song, so we must find him for revenge!" Lu Bai said coldly.
"Not just Senior Brother Guo Song, he might have even killed Senior Brother Fang Yue, Senior Brother Sun Ming, and the others," Wang Ran said.
"That can't be right?" These words caused Yan Dong and the others to be even more stunned, and they subconsciously looked at Linlong.
"What Fang Yue, Sun Ming, I don't know." Linlong directly shook his head.
He was not so foolish as to admit that he had killed those two.
"Regardless of whether you killed Fang Yue and Sun Ming, you killed Guo Song, so you must pay with blood!" Someone beside Lu Bai said coldly.
He did not have the intention to kill Linlong, but Guo Song's death made him even more determined. After all, he had a good relationship with Guo Song.
"Yan Dong, we want to deal with Linlong, so I hope that you can move aside!" Lu Bai looked at Yan Dong and said coldly.
This...
Yan Dong could not help but hesitate. Not only him, but the others also felt the same way.
They had only met Linlong by chance, and their relationship was not good enough to the point of risking their lives for him. Moreover, Linlong had killed one of their people.
Lin Long smiled indifferently, then suddenly turned around and bolted away.
"Chase!"
Seeing Linlong escape, Lu Bai and the others hurriedly gave chase.
However, how could they catch up to Linlong? Very quickly, Linlong disappeared without a trace.
After all, Linlong had escaped first, and he had already mastered the Iron Striped Steps. Moreover, he was more familiar with the terrain here than Lu Bai and the others.
Helpless, Lu Bai and the others could only stop and walk back to Yan Dong and the others.
The reason why they did so was naturally to understand the situation here through Yan Dong and the others so that they could chase after Linlong.
Seeing that the people behind him did not chase after him, Linlong also stopped.
However, this situation did not make him heave a sigh of relief. Because the terrain here was not big, and it was easier to be surrounded. Once the other party familiarized themselves with the terrain, he would be in trouble.
In the following period of time, after understanding the terrain, Yan Dong and the others continued to chase after Linlong.
However, what made them depressed was that with the Iron Striped Steps, Linlong did not give them a chance to surround him. There were many times when they were about to trap Linlong, but he still managed to escape in the end.
After the four of them gathered together, Lu Bai furrowed her brows and said, "This won't do. We have to find a way."
"I have an idea," Wang Ran suddenly said.
"Oh, what idea do you have?" Hearing his words, the other three shifted their gazes to him.
"We can kill one of Yan Dong and the others," Wang Ran said.
"What idea is that?" The person on the right of Lu Bai was puzzled.
"Are you trying to frame Lin Li?" Lu Bai asked after regaining her composure.
"That's right, frame Lin Li and let Yan Dong and the others join forces with us to deal with him. When that time comes, he will not be able to escape even if he has three heads and six arms!" Wang Ran sneered.
"That's a good idea." Lu Bai nodded, then said, "But, how can we make Yan Dong think that Lin Li killed them?"
He did not have a good relationship with Yan Dong and the others, and their deaths did not matter to him at all. Hence, he naturally did not mind this idea.
"Leave it to me. I have a good relationship with one of them. When the time comes, I will promise him some benefits. When we kill the other person, he will stand out and insist that it was Lin Li who killed them. Yan Dong and the others will naturally believe it." Wang Ran smiled.
"Alright, let's do it that way." Lu Bai nodded, then reminded, "But, Wang Ran, is that person reliable?"
If he was not reliable, and the truth was revealed, they would be going for wool and coming home shorn.
"Don't worry, that person is reliable. In fact, he has a conflict with the person I want to kill. Hence, after I make this suggestion, he will definitely do it." Wang Ran patted his chest and said.
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you." Lu Bai and the others said.
After that, Wang Ran found a chance to interact with one of Yan Dong and the others. This person was called Xu Xin, and he had spoken to Lin Long previously.
"Wang Ran, what's the matter?" Xu Xin was a little puzzled seeing that Wang Ran wanted to meet him in private.
"Xu Xin, I need you to do something for me." As he spoke, he took out a small piece of Mystical Crystal Stone.
"Wang Ran, tell me what it is." Xu Xin did not take it, but said cautiously.
He did not want to lose his life over this Mystical Crystal Stone.
"You will definitely not reject what I want you to do." Wang Ran smiled.
"Oh, what is it?"
"I want to kill Lei Qiu." Wang Ran said.
Lei Qiu was one of Yan Dong and the others. Like Xu Xin, he was only at the bronze sword rank.
Because of certain things, Xu Xin and Lei Qiu had a deep conflict. Although the two had reconciled with Yan Dong's intervention, Xu Xin still bore a grudge.
Previously, he had been looking for a chance to kill Lei Qiu, but he did not have absolute confidence. Also, he was afraid that Yan Dong and the others would suspect him, so he did not make a move.
Therefore, after hearing Wang Ran's words, his eyes immediately lit up, and he immediately said, "Alright then."
Then, he asked doubtfully, "Why do you want to kill Lei Qiu?"
"It's very simple. I want to frame Lin Li," Wang Ran said.
"Oh, then what should I do? Do you want me to kill Lei Qiu myself?" Xu Xin asked.
"There's no need for that. Yan Dong would be able to see through it if you were to make a move. Our men will do it. After we kill Lei Qiu, we will accuse Lin Li of being the culprit. By then, not only will you not be suspected, we can also join forces with you to deal with Lin Li." Wang Ran laughed.
"That's good!" Xu Xin immediately nodded.
How could he let go of such a chance to kill Lei Qiu without being suspected?
Because of his hatred for Lei Qiu, he even pushed Wang Ran's small piece of Mystical Crystal Stone back.
"Wang Ran, you helped me with this, so I can't accept it," Xu Xin said.
Seeing that Xu Xin was serious, Wang Ran naturally did not insist. He took the small piece of Mystical Crystal Stone back and said, "Then it's settled."
"Mm, it's settled." Xu Xin nodded, then asked, "When do we do it?"
"When Lei Qiu goes to scout the way, we will do it. Then, you take the opportunity to get close. After we kill Lei Qiu, we will all frame Lin Li," Wang Ran said.
"Alright." Xu Xin did not hesitate.
