Led by Little Fairy Doctor, they quickly arrived at the Wolf Head Mercenary Group stationed in the Monster Beast Mountain Range.
Their leader, Mu She, also desperately wanted the key in Xiao Yan's possession and the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture in Little Fairy Doctor's hands,
so he had established a base here to conduct a large-scale search for Xiao Yan.
If it weren't for the influence of the Myriad Medicines Hall behind Little Fairy Doctor, Mu She would probably have already stormed into Green Mountain Town and executed her on the spot…
Mu She glared fiercely at his subordinate, shouting, "This idiot who only knows how to play with women! Knowing we're at a critical moment, he's still flirting! Does he really think she's easy to bully?!"
Under his deafening roar, the subordinate was already terrified, his legs going weak, and he lay on the ground, not daring to utter a sound.
"Father, Hermon is an eight-star Dou Zhe. Even if he really encounters Xiao Yan, he might just take care of him!"
Standing next to Mu She was a middle-aged man with a lewd appearance. This man was the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, and also a veritable strategist.
Mu She slammed his right fist on the table and snorted angrily, "With that guy's brains, I'll be more satisfied if he comes back alive!"
Mu Li narrowed his eyes. Hermon's strength was obvious to all. Although he was not as strong as his father, he was not someone that could be compared to ordinary people.
Even if Xiao Yan was strong, he couldn't possibly kill Hermon.
However, at this moment, a mercenary ran over anxiously. From his movements, it could be seen that this mercenary's strength was around three-star Dou Zhe. He
said in a terrified voice, "Leader, young leader…"
"What's the panic?!"
Mu She glanced at the mercenaries he had arranged in the mountains.
"Reporting to the commander... our mercenaries sent to the Monster Mountain Range have sent word back..."
"Oh?" Mu She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did they capture Xiao Yan?"
"Commander... Commander..." The messenger hesitated, looking at the fierce-looking commander before him, a look of horror creeping into his heart. He hesitated to speak.
"Speak!"
Mu She felt a sense of foreboding, his eyes flashing with light. With a sharp shout, he nearly knocked the mercenary to the ground.
"All the mercenaries we sent out are dead... and... and the Third Commander also..."
"Also what?"
Mu She rushed forward, grabbing the man by the neck. "What happened?!"
"The Third Commander was also tortured to death by the He Yuan, and his body was eaten."
Upon hearing this, all the powerful figures present gasped, their eyes filled with astonishment.
The eight-star Dou Zhe, He Meng, had actually been tortured to death by the He Yuan; probably few would believe it.
Mushe glared angrily and said, "If you're going to lie to me, at least come up with a plausible reason! Hermon is burly and has a lewd appearance. How could He Yuan possibly like him!"
"He really is the captain. Even Madam Lan couldn't escape his clutches and was... defiled on the spot... Moreover, he's a man. He's the one who commands those magical beasts."
"A man?"
Mushe's expression subtly changed. Who could control magical beasts?
Whoever killed the third leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group would face the group's relentless pursuit!
However, just as Mu She was about to give the order, deafening screams and explosions suddenly erupted outside the mercenary group. Before
Mu She could react, the heavy door in front of him collapsed with a deafening roar as one of his men flew in.
The entire Wolf Head Mercenary Group was engulfed in flames, the clanging sounds echoing throughout, yet it was all so easy for the newcomer. With just one step forward, the surrounding mercenaries felt as if boulders had crashed down, instantly turning into a pile of minced meat.
Hearing the commotion, Mu She rushed over anxiously, but seeing his mercenary group, built up over a lifetime, destroyed, his eyes turned bloodshot.
"Bastard!"
Mu She's gaze shifted to Little Fairy Doctor, his expression ferocious. "It's you! I never expected you to dare come to my Wolf Head Mercenary Group! Are you courting death?!"
"So you're Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?"
Jiang Cheng looked at the burly Mu She and said calmly, "Just a lowly Battle Master. I thought you had some kind of superhuman strength."
Mu She's pupils shrank, and he involuntarily took two steps back, his eyes filled with malice.
However, the feeling emanating from this person was so terrifying that even a simple glance at him made him feel as if his body had been hollowed out.
Mu She swallowed hard, realizing the newcomer was no ordinary person. He straightened his clothes and respectfully cupped his hands, saying,
"May I ask who you are, and why you have trespassed on the territory of my Wolf Head Mercenary Group? I have not offended you, have I?"
"You have not offended them, but the Wolf Head Mercenary Group has," Jiang Cheng said calmly. "Your third leader trespassed on my territory and cut down my peach trees. Tell me, have we offended each other?"
Upon hearing this, Mu She gasped. So that's how it was; He Meng had died at this guy's hands.
Mu She took the crescent-shaped blade handed to him and said viciously, "If you leave now, I will let this matter go. Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you; my blade spares no life."
Jiang Cheng simply smiled. What a fine phrase, "spare no life." Dealing with this group was far too unbecoming of a scholar. He snapped his fingers, and a fourth-tier magical beast wielding a wooden club swaggered in.
The moment Mu She saw the fourth-tier magical beast, he was certain that Hemon had died because of him, and he immediately flew into a rage. "You bastard, I'll kill you to avenge Hemon!"
"Take care of the magical beast beside me first,"
Jiang Cheng said, turning to the side. "Little Fairy Doctor, begin your treasure hunt."
"Okay."
Little Fairy Doctor nodded happily, put her hands behind her back, made a face at Mu She with a grin, and turned to walk towards the room where the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had accumulated its wealth.
Mu She tried to stop him, but was sent flying by a single blow. The power of a fourth-tier magical beast was terrifying, even comparable to a five-star Dou Ling in humans, while the so-called leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was just a minor Dou Shi.
In front of it, he was like a toy, pinned to the ground and brutally beaten, emitting suppressed growls.
On the other side,
Little Fairy Doctor opened the room containing the treasure, and looked at the room filled with golden light, revealing a look of surprise.
"Wow, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group has so much wealth! Looks like they've been plundering the people's riches all these years."
"Yeah, that's true."
Jiang Cheng nodded. There were at least a million gold coins here. He'd thought the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was just a third-rate group, but he hadn't expected them to be so rich.
