CHAPTER 240
Ancient Devil Bug
Seeing that Lin Sen and Yang Xiao also wanted to join the team to search for the Seven Star Flower, Huang Shu was furious. He sternly stared at Yang Xiao and said, "Yang Xiao, what is the meaning of this? Isn't your mission to hunt the Ghostface Venomspiders? Why are you interfering with my business?"
"No comment!"
Lin Sen's words were always so irritating. If Ye Fei hadn't seen Lin Sen's attack just now and understood that this person didn't have any ill intentions, he would have misunderstood Lin Sen.
Huang Shu was even angrier. However, Lin Sen and Yang Xiao were determined to go, and he couldn't stop them. Huang Shu could only hold back his anger and say, "Very well, you can go, but you can't take the Seven Star Flower."
"If you don't want to take it, then don't take it. It just so happens that we are very interested in the Ancient Demonic Insects there. Who knows, we might even encounter the Ghost Face Venomous Spiders there." Yang Xiao chuckled and did not argue with Huang Shu.
This time, Huang Shu didn't even have an excuse to stop them. The two of them had already expressed that they didn't want the Seven Star Flower. What else could he do?
Huang Shu decided to vent his anger on Ye Fei. He pointed at Ye Fei and ordered, "You, go to the front and scout for us!"
"Huang Shu, what do you mean by that? The deeper regions of the Seven Treasure Woods are filled with tenth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm beasts. Ye Fei's cultivation is so low. What if he's in danger when you ask him to scout ahead?" Yang Xiao said unhappily. She then turned to Ye Fei and whispered, "Ye Fei, you are the weakest here. You won't be able to help even if you go up. Just hide behind us."
Eh!
Ye Fei's face darkened. I'm weak. I don't dare to say anything else, but against Huang Xie, the so-called seventh ranked inner sect disciple, Ye Fei was still very confident.
In the end, in the eyes of Yang Xiao and Lin Sen, he actually became a complete weakling, and the weak needed protection.
They didn't even give him a chance to explain himself. Ye Fei was already depressed to discover that he had been pushed aside by the two of them.
The one in charge of scouting ahead was Lin Sen. His face was cold as he carried a very heavy spear and walked in front. Huang Shu's face was dark as he walked in the second place. He was in charge of the side defense.
Yang Xiao and Ye Fei were at the back of the group. Yang Xiao held a green wooden bow in her hand. His gaze was as sharp as an eagle's, seemingly able to penetrate the surrounding fog.
At this time, Ye Fei really couldn't understand these two people. Lin Sen and Yang Xiao's actions clearly meant to protect him.
But Ye Fei was sure that he didn't know these two people at all. Seeing that Yang Xiao was easy to talk to, Ye Fei kept talking to Yang Xiao on the way.
"Senior Brother Yang, you seem to be protecting me. Why?" Ye Fei asked.
Yang Xiao did not answer. Instead, he revealed a look of reminiscence. "Three years ago, Lin Sen and I had just joined the inner sect. In the end, we accidentally offended someone and were sent to the Seven Treasures Forest to die. In the end, we met Jing Wushou, who beat us up and threw us back to the inner sect …"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei broke out in a cold sweat. Jing Wushou beat you up, and you're still helping me? Could it be that these two people were here to be more of a hindrance?
…
With these inner sect experts scouting ahead, Ye Fei's journey in the Seven Treasures Forest finally became smoother. Soon, he arrived in front of a very large valley.
The sky above the valley was similarly filled with thick fog. And within the fog, one could vaguely see the light of the stars. Huang Shu's eyes immediately lit up when he saw the starlight.
Lin Sen and Yang Xiao exchanged glances. Their eyes were also filled with surprise. "There's actually a Seven Star Flower here? And we even encountered it. "
"Why? Is it very difficult to find a Seven Star Flower?" Ye Fei was a little puzzled. He had seen Huang Shu accurately find this place.
Huang Shu looked at Ye Fei with extreme disdain and said coldly, "What nonsense are you spouting? You can't scout ahead, but you can pick a Seven Star Flower, right? Go in immediately and pick the Seven Star Flower!"
"You're crazy. If you want to go in, go in yourself!" Ye Fei said coldly. At this moment, he could faintly sense that the task of picking the Seven Star Flower was definitely not that simple.
Yang Xiao hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "We're all from the same Sacred Ground, so there's no need to hurt our friendship. Furthermore, when a Seven Star Flower appears, there will definitely be a gathering of Demon Insects. Even if these Demon Insects are not of a high level, we still have to be careful."
Huang Shu sarcastically said to Ye Fei, "They're just some Ancient Demon Insects of the second or third Martial Ancestor Realm. Even if there are many of them, it's nothing to worry about. If he can't even deal with these Ancient Demon Insects, what right does he have to obtain the Seven Star Flower?"
"Let's go!"
Ye Fei stepped forward and said. He knew that Huang Shu was deliberately trying to provoke him. However, what Huang Shu said made sense. If he did nothing and just stood back and watched, it would indeed be a little unreasonable.
"You'll be courting death if you go in!" Lin Sen glanced at Ye Fei with a mocking smile.
Ye Fei's face turned black.
Yang Xiao also smiled bitterly and continued to smooth things over. "Junior Brother, don't misunderstand. He's just too straightforward. Do you understand how straightforward he is? How about this? Everyone will go in together. You can still follow behind us."
With that, Yang Xiao was the first to enter the valley. Lin Sen hurriedly followed behind. Huang Shu glared at Ye Fei as if he was looking at a dead man. He also walked into the valley unhappily.
Ye Fei completely ignored Huang Shu's stare and walked in leisurely. He also felt that it would be good to let the two experts, Lin Sen and Yang Xiao, take the lead.
After all, this was his first time coming to a dangerous place like the Seven Treasure Forest. It would be easier to complete the task with experienced people leading the way.
In the end, Ye Fei also walked into the valley. The moment he entered, a very pleasant fragrance wafted into his nose.
"What a fragrant smell. There's also an ethereal smell."
"This is the fragrance of a ripe Seven Star Flower! It's also the easiest to attract Ancient Demon Insects to gather here. I hope that the Ancient Demon Insects gathered here won't be too powerful, "Yang Xiao explained to Ye Fei as she lagged behind.
"They're here!"
Lin Sen's aura changed. His long spear turned into a long dragon and pierced forward.
"Boom!"
The fog in the entire valley disappeared under this spear attack. The sky emitted a faint light. Ye Fei could finally see the full appearance of this "valley".
How was this a valley? It was clearly a huge beehive. The tragedy was that the four of them had stepped into it.
Ye Fei was covered in cold sweat when he saw this. Lin Sen and Yang Xiao's expressions were not any better. When they sensed the intruders, the beehive instantly exploded.
"Buzz!"
The loud buzzing sound reverberated through the area within a hundred miles. The Demonic Beasts that were hiding nearby were so frightened that they all ran away as fast as they could, trying to escape from this place.
"How could this be? There are actually so many Ancient Demon Bees here. Even a half-step Martial Saint would die here. Huang Shu, you actually didn't tell us!" Yang Xiao roared angrily.
"Retreat! There's still time!" Lin Sen's expression was extremely grave.
"It's already too late!"
A bitter smile appeared on Ye Fei's face. Behind him, there were already hundreds of Ancient Demon Bees the size of hounds surrounding them.
"Strange, where's Huang Shu? Why did he disappear?" Suddenly, Yang Xiao realized something. Originally, four people had entered, but now, only the three of them were left!
