To everyone's surprise, two late Heavenly God mercenaries who were slightly slower to react were swept up by the gale. Their bodies and armor were torn apart in an instant, and all that awaited them was death.
Fortunately, Xiao Lingyu hadn't fled on his own. He'd brought Miss Jing, Xiong Meng, and the others into the air.
"Send a message to have the mercenaries retreat from the Evil Wind Valley as quickly as possible!" Guan Yiwei cautiously reminded.
Guan Yiyuan did not hesitate. He immediately took out his communication bead and sent out a series of messages.
Perhaps it was because of the changes here, but the gale in the Evil Wind Valley became even more violent. The Heavenly Gods were unable to withstand it for even a moment.
Fortunately, the cultivators of the mercenary group were gathered together in groups. They protected each other and were able to walk out. However, they had to do it as soon as possible because the power of the gale in the valley was still increasing.
What was even more surprising was that after an hour, not only had the large pit that was previously dug expanded by more than a hundred times, but the fierce wind that gushed out from it also carried traces of the smell of blood.
If one looked closely, they would even be able to see the fragments of magic treasures in the gale.
"Those bandits really were hiding down there. However, they were caught in a trap of their own making and ended up losing their lives in the end," Guan Yiwei said with narrowed eyes.
It was very clear that the bandits did not expect the Guan family to be able to discover everything in the Evil Wind Valley. They probably did not expect that they would be swept up by the gale after the hole was dug.
To be able to make such a ferocious wind carry the smell of blood, it proved that the number of people who died below was definitely not small.
The Wildfire mercenaries had already used this half an hour to retreat from the Evil Wind Valley. Moreover, they had cautiously retreated a hundred kilometers away from the Evil Wind Valley.
Because the wind in the Evil Wind Valley was getting more and more violent, to the point where even the Divine Monarch experts were unable to withstand it, Guan Yiwei led the Divine Monarch experts away from the Evil Wind Valley for the time being. Instead, he stared at the constantly expanding crater in the Evil Wind Valley.
After a full three days, the large pit had occupied almost one-tenth of the entire Evil Wind Valley's vast surface area. The gale finally stopped.
Not only did the wild winds that even a Divine Lord master find hard to resist stop, but the entire Evil Wind Valley also became calm and tranquil. Even the wild winds that used to wreak havoc in the valley had stopped.
"This Evil Wind Valley is surrounded by tall mountains. Evil winds wreak havoc all year round. I'm afraid that these evil winds come from underground. Are you interested in going down with me to investigate?" Guan Yiwei asked with a calm expression.
Regardless of whether it was the Sir Gods sent by the Butler or Xiao Lingyu and other Sir Gods with different surnames, their eyes shone as they nodded silently.
"However, after we go down later, I hope that everyone will focus on the big picture and support each other. Don't neglect the danger or start a conflict for some opportunities. If there really is something good down there, then let's work together to obtain it first, and then hand it over to the family. I believe that the family will not mistreat everyone. "
Guan Yiwei gave a few more instructions before leading everyone towards the huge pit in the Evil Wind Valley.
Xiao Lingyu first left Xiong Meng and the others behind, only bringing Miss Jing with him as he flew into the valley.
Although the Evil Wind Valley had undergone a drastic change, other than the large pit and the lack of wind, nothing else seemed to have changed. The ground was still as flat as before, almost as smooth as a mirror. Furthermore, there were no flowers or trees to be found.
The pit was bottomless, and it was pitch-black below, as if it was a bottomless abyss.
The pit was very quiet, so quiet that it was a little deathly.
"Everyone, be careful. No matter what, staying alive is the most important thing," Guan Yiwei said as he took the lead to jump into the pit. In the blink of an eye, he was swallowed by the darkness.
The Sir Gods with the surname Guan naturally followed closely behind.
The only Sir Gods with different surnames present were Xiao Lingyu and Zou Gen. The two of them and Miss Jing stayed behind.
In order to not arouse suspicion, the three brothers, Guan Yiyuan, Guan Yichuan, and Guan Yishan, also followed behind Guan Yiwei.
"Let's go down as well. Don't be in a hurry to fight for any benefits. With a late-stage Sir God expert here, we won't be able to compete."
Zou Gen said with a smile before jumping into the pit.
Xiao Lingyu wasn't in a hurry to leave. He waited until everyone had left before asking Miss Jing, "Did you find anything else?"
Miss Jing shook her head before taking out the bracelet she had put away earlier.
The exquisite multicolored bracelet was still glowing, but it was much more intense than the last time.
The dazzling light almost enveloped Miss Jing, making her, who was already very beautiful, look even more holy.
"The only thing I'm sure of is that there's an ownerless supreme-grade divine treasure down there," Miss Jing said.
"I didn't expect your bracelet to be able to detect treasures," Xiao Lingyu said with a look of admiration.
"Hehe, although it can detect the existence and grade of treasures, it's useless against Saint artifacts," Miss Jing said meaningfully.
Xiao Lingyu's expression didn't change at all. He looked at the pit beneath his feet and said, "We should go down too."
Miss Jing cupped her fists and said, "Brother Xiao, please take care of us later."
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "It's not certain who will be taking care of who."
When Xiao Lingyu and Miss Jing reached the bottom of the pit, Guan Yiwei and the other Divine Lords of the Guan family were hesitating. There were two wide underground tunnels in front of them, and they didn't know which one to choose.
No one knew if there was any danger down there. If they separated, it would only increase the risk.
"Let's try our luck. Let's go this way."
Guan Yiwei had the demeanor of a general. He only pondered for a moment before walking resolutely to the left tunnel.
As they were worried that danger might come at any time, they didn't move very quickly. After an hour, they had only walked tens of thousands of feet. However, they had reached the end of the tunnel.
From the tunnel they had walked through, it was obvious that the tunnel was semicircular. At the end of the tunnel, there were also two forks. However, one of them seemed to be the other semicircle, while the other had clearly changed its circular trajectory. Furthermore, it was very straight.
"Whichever tunnel we chose just now, we would have walked here," said a Divine Lord of the Guan family.
After Guan Yiwei walked into the straight tunnel, he narrowed his eyes and sensed a little before reminding them, "Although it's not obvious, I feel that there's definitely danger inside. Everyone, stay alert. Don't be careless."
After everyone had walked for a while in the straight tunnel, Miss Jing, who was walking at the back, transmitted her voice to Xiao Lingyu, "This place is filled with an evil and obscure aura. There must be something ferocious inside. Furthermore, it won't be weak."
After walking for nearly ten thousand feet along the straight tunnel, the group had yet to reach the end of the tunnel when they heard a ghastly wail coming from the front.
Everyone's expression became tense. They even took out their weapons and Dharma treasures.
After walking for a while, the end of the passage could be seen. However, everyone first saw four very wretched cultivators meditating and adjusting their breathing.
The four of them also sensed the arrival of Guan Yiwei and the others. They opened their eyes and became alert.
Two of the four people looked familiar to Xiao Lingyu. After thinking carefully, she recalled that they were the Divine Lord experts who had led the team to intercept the Wildfire Airship.
It was obvious that these four people were the remaining experts of the Evil Wind Valley bandits. They should have been hiding in the underground tunnel like the other cultivators of the Evil Wind Valley.
However, the bandits who hadn't reached the Divine Lord stage had already been killed in the evil wind. The four of them were able to last until now not only because of their teamwork and Divine Lord strength, but also because of luck. Moreover, from the looks of it, they should have expended a lot of energy before.
The two sides had already encountered each other, so the atmosphere was naturally tense. However, the Guan family all had sneers on their faces.
The other side only had half the number of people on their side. Furthermore, they were all in low spirits. It should be easy to take them down.
If it wasn't for the special situation here, the Guan family would have already attacked them.
The other party also knew that they were in a very dangerous situation. One of them said, "I advise you to calm down. Fighting here won't do you any good. Instead, it will bring you great danger. Behind us, there are many fiendish beings. Once the battle here alarms them, you and we will all be buried here. "
"Haha, not only are you good at robbing, but you are also good at scaring people!" A Guan family Divine Lord sneered.
"You know very well whether I'm scaring you or not," the bandit Divine Lord replied indifferently.
Although the atmosphere was tense, it was also very awkward.
The four bandit Divine Lords' way out was blocked by the Guan family's experts. Retreating was even more dangerous. They were already in a desperate situation.
As for the Guan family, they had already found their targets. As long as they got rid of the four of them, their mission would be considered complete. However, they didn't understand the special situation here, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
Guan Yiwei frowned and pondered for a moment. He suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, we didn't come here to kill all of you. We just want to cooperate with all of you for a long time. All of you are proud and arrogant people. Therefore, we attacked forcefully and let all of you see our strength."
"Cooperation? How? "the bandit Divine Lord asked.
"As long as all of you are willing to join the Guan family, swear your loyalty, and serve the Guan family from then on, the Guan family will naturally treat all of you well," Guan Yiwei said.
"This …"
The four bandit Divine Lords appeared to be very hesitant. One of them said, "We have offended many powerful families in Duhu City. If we join the Guan family, I'm afraid it will bring you a lot of trouble."
"Haha, if you don't tell anyone about this, and if the Guan family doesn't tell anyone, who will know that you have joined the Guan family?" Guan Yiwei shook his head and laughed.
"We can agree to this suggestion of cooperation, but we won't swear an oath," one of the bandit Divine Lords said.
