The reason Lu An frowned was very simple. He did not expect that these people's bodies would be invaded so quickly.
He had the Death Removal Technique, so he could completely remove the Yin energy from Yu Yan and Huo Yan's bodies. This was something he had thought of in advance. However, he thought that they would be very far away and would only appear when the team was scattered. If he appeared so early, he would not be able to treat them at all. Otherwise, when the immortal energy appeared, his identity would be exposed immediately!
He could not make a move now!
Lu An's eyes turned cold, but he did not move. He even used the materials in his ring to refine a black paint in advance and secretly smeared it on his face. This way, he would not be suspected.
In the distance, Teng Biao and the other 20 people were quickly checking their teams. Yu Shi quickly asked Yu Jiang and the others, "Besides your skin turning black, do you feel anything else?"
"Weak, flustered!" Yu Jiang quickly said, "It's a little obvious now. Although it doesn't affect our movement, I'm afraid that it will get worse as we go further!"
Yu Shi frowned even more. Immediately, the 20 team leaders gathered together to discuss. They could not discuss for too long here. Soon, everyone raised their hands to vote. The minority obeyed the majority. Soon, most of them raised their hands.
Seeing this, Teng Biao immediately announced to everyone, "Continue forward!"
After hearing the order, the team members wailed in their hearts. Their expressions became very uncomfortable. However, they could only force themselves to continue forward. As they went deeper and deeper, the Yin energy penetrated the 'Qi' around them and invaded their bodies and consciousness.
Lu An observed the situation of the two women beside him as he flew. The black color on the two women's necks was getting thicker and thicker. It gradually covered their entire necks and spread toward their heads. This was an extremely terrifying matter. This time, after only an hour, an unexpected situation had occurred after advancing for five thousand miles!
"I'm turning black! I'm turning black! "
A scream filled with fear spread throughout the team, causing everyone to stop and look. Everyone's body trembled. They saw that the neck and face of the person who screamed had turned completely black!
Lu An's eyes turned cold. One must know that people who lived in the underground world did not see the light of day. Their skin was much fairer than humans above ground. From white to black, it was as if his entire body had been soaked in ink, turning into a black man. How could this not make everyone panic?!
This was the first person to completely turn black, and the others were not much better. Most of their skin had turned black, including Yu Yan and Huo Yan!
Immediately, a huge wave of panic spread among the team members. Even Teng Biao and his team members found it difficult to deal with such a large-scale loss of control of their emotions. The twenty people immediately gathered together to discuss.
"If this goes on, they won't be of any benefit to the operation at all. Instead, they'll drag us down and make it impossible for us to move!" one of the captains said quickly.
Many of the captains nodded in agreement. This person was right. The reason why they had brought so many people was because they thought that there would be strength in numbers. Although the strength of these people was far inferior to theirs, they had a limited number of people after all. Sometimes, they would be restricted and unable to do anything. These people would be of great use to them, but they did not expect that they would become a burden now.
"Why don't we let them go back?" Yu Shi said in a low voice, "There are signs along the way. It's still not too late to go back the way we came. If we wait until everyone loses control of their emotions, even if we want to send them all out, it will be very difficult!"
As soon as this was said, many people nodded. As more and more people thought about it, they expressed their agreement. Compared to the current chaotic situation, they would rather have twenty people on the operation. This would save them a lot of trouble.
"Then let them go back!" Teng Biao said after seeing that most of the people had agreed. He walked to the front of the three hundred and eighty team members and shouted, "All team members, listen up. Return to the base and wait for further orders!"
After hearing this order, all the team members heaved a huge sigh of relief. They really did not want to go any further. It was too torturous. Immediately, everyone turned around impatiently and prepared to flee back the way they came.
However …
Rumble!!!
Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded. In an instant, a terrifying force swept toward the four hundred people!
This force came without any warning. It was formed completely suddenly! Moreover, it did not come from afar. Instead, it suddenly formed a huge black fog whirlwind around the four hundred people! The terrifying Yin energy instantly swept over the four hundred people. Even the twenty captains could not react in time!
This Yin energy was extremely terrifying. It was enough to severely injure all the team members in an instant! Fortunately, everyone had a dense 'Qi' around them. This' Qi 'offset a portion of the strong impact, causing their bodies to suffer from the Yin energy's heavy impact!
"Ah!!!"
In an instant, screams filled the black fog. After the 'Qi' was destroyed, the light disappeared. Only the 'Qi' around the twenty captains was still shining. Everything happened so suddenly. In an instant, all the team members were swept into the whirlwind and disappeared without a trace. This caused the twenty captains to panic!
"Save them!"
Teng Biao roared. Immediately, the twenty captains attacked together, releasing their strongest energy forms! In an instant, twenty energy forms that were ten thousand feet tall appeared. They stood in the middle of the whirlwind and attacked their surroundings, trying to force the whirlwind to stop!
Rumble!!!
All the attacks were inserted into the whirlwind. Instantly, the whirlwind let out a huge roar! The terrifying force caused the twenty captains' energy forms to become unstable. Everyone tried their best to hold on. Finally, after ten breaths, the terrifying whirlwind was forcefully stopped!
"Huff! Huff! "
The twenty captains were panting heavily. But very quickly, their bodies trembled as they looked at their surroundings in disbelief!
Under the huge energy form, the light could reach very far. But within a few thousand feet, where were their team members?!
All 380 team members had disappeared. They had been swept far away by the whirlwind! Once they were swept away, they would lose all markings on the ground and be lost in the Dark Ghost Territory!
The twenty captains panicked. None of them had expected the attack in the Dark Ghost Territory to be so sudden. They were caught off guard! The 380 team members had been swept away in all directions. Furthermore, they did not know that the whirlwind was at least ten thousand feet wide. Even if they wanted to find them, it would be extremely difficult!
"What do we do?" Someone hurriedly asked Teng Biao. "Do we go and look for them?!"
Teng Biao's face was grave. If they went to look for their team members, it meant that the twenty of them would be completely separated. That way, they would be like a sheet of loose sand, unable to face the situation together. No one knew what would happen. More importantly, no one could guarantee that they would be able to find their team members. The risk and reward were too great!
"Why don't we just abandon them and rush to the core of the Dark Ghost Territory?" At this moment, Chen Tuo suddenly spoke. "If we don't bring them along, with our speed, we can quickly rush to the central area. As long as we can find the core of the Dark Ghost Territory and destroy it, the entire Dark Ghost Territory will collapse. At that time, they will also be saved. Perhaps this will be faster than looking for them!"
Hearing Chen Tuo's words, everyone's hearts trembled. Without a doubt, every team member was the elite of the organization. They were the future mainstays of the organization. It was extremely difficult to nurture even one of them. Abandoning them like this made the hearts of the captains bleed.
However … as Chen Tuo had said, the fastest way was to gather everyone's strength and destroy the Dark Ghost Territory as quickly as possible!
"Same old rules, raise your hands!" Teng Biao's eyes turned cold as he said solemnly. "The minority obeys the majority!"
As soon as he said this, Chen Tuo immediately raised his hand. Seeing that Chen Tuo was so decisive, after some hesitation, several others raised their hands. In the next ten breaths, more and more people raised their hands. Soon, there were more than ten people.
Once there were more than ten people, even if some people did not raise their hands, the decision could not be changed. Obeying the majority's opinion and not leaving the organization to act alone had long been agreed upon by the entire League of Mercenaries. No one could violate this agreement.
"Okay!" Teng Biao took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "In that case, let's not be careful anymore. Full speed ahead! Since we won't give up until we destroy the Dark Ghost Territory, please put aside your life and death! "
Then, Teng Biao turned to the north and said loudly, "Let's go!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The twenty people moved together at full speed, heading deeper into the north!
