After a long walk in the Snake Forest, the forest became increasingly dark. Yang Ye measured his surroundings carefully, and he noticed his surroundings were covered by towering ancient trees that towered straight up into the sky and his branches and leaves were tightly intertwined. Some strands of sunlight are only able to pass through some places that are not so dense with foliage.
During this period of time, some small snakes sometimes launch surprise attacks against them from the treetops. However, these small snakes did not pose any problems to them, and their group handled the small snakes very easily.
Yang Ye did not fight during this period of time as Qing Hong continued to follow by his side. Once a snake suddenly launched an attack, he would face it alone, and Yang Ye had no chance to move at all. It was precisely because of this that Yang Ye was constantly ridiculed by Xiu Yuan during this period of time.
Yang Ye followed this group for several hours, and he gained a rough understanding of the strength of independent cultivators and disciples of a sect. When independent cultivators were compared to disciples from the sect, the distance was a bit large. Since the disciples of the sect had cultivation resources such as techniques and treasures, whereas, if the four independent cultivators before him were taken as an example, then other than Xiu Yuan weapons were low-level Yellow Ranked swords, that was the case, the other weapons are not judged at all. Moreover, the four of them did not have the proper techniques, and they mostly relied on brute strength to fight.
As for Xiu Yuan's humiliation and ridicule, Yang Ye completely ignored him. Although Xiu Yuan was ranked ninth in the Mortal Realm, Yang Ye did not take him seriously at all. According to Yang Ye's estimation, even a crippled Duan Jun would be able to handle Xiu Yuan.
The gap between sect disciples and independent cultivators was truly huge!
As they entered deeper into the Snake Forest, the number of snakes residing in the trees grew in number. In the end, they were attacked by all kinds of snakes with a distance of every 10 meters more that they traveled.
Feel~
Qing Hong held a dagger in his hand as it flashed from above Yang Ye, and a small snake instantly split into two and fell to the ground.
After he killed the little snake with a single strike, Qing Hong patted Yang Ye on the head and said, “Don't I say that you should always follow behind me? Although the cultivation of this little snake is not high, it contains venomous toxins, and it will be very troublesome if you are bitten by it.
Yang Ye rubbed her nose when she heard this, and she was slightly comforted. Because even if he stood there and let the little snake bite him, they probably wouldn't be able to bite his skin. However, Yang Ye was still moved by the woman's attention. They had only met by chance, yet this woman before him had taken care of him on many occasions, and this caused his heart to feel a little warm.
Bang out!
Just at that moment, a huge python that had two wings on its back suddenly descended not far from them. The body of the python was even larger than the one that Colossal Piton King Yang Ye had killed that day, and its entire body was pitch-black while its body was covered in scales that looked like Black Iron. Moreover, the python had a pair of pitch-black wings.
This Python did not attack Yang Ye and the others. It only blocked their path, and its huge eyes stared at them while emitting a ferocious light.
"That's an eight-level Twin Wing Python, be careful of everything!" When he saw this Twin Wings Python suddenly appear, the Profound Energy within Man'zi's body surged, and his expression became solemn while he immediately warned the others. At the same time, Xiu Yuan and Xiao Hei hurriedly moved several meters to both sides, and they stared at the Twin Wing Python warily.
Qing Hong who was standing by Yang Ye's side hurriedly pulled a bow from his shoulder and drew an arrow before directing it to the Twin Wing Python in the distance.
“Man'zi, kill it. The core in this Twin Wing Python could at least sell for 5,000 gold coins. Moreover, his skin could definitely be sold for at least 1,000 gold coins. What say?" Meanwhile, Xiu Yuan's eyes flickered with greed as he asked in a low voice.
Man'zi's eyes flashed with lumps of greed as well when he heard this, and he hesitated for a moment before he nodded and said, “The three of us will attack together from three directions. Qing Hong, you helped us with your bow and arrow. Attack!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Man'zi, Xiao Hei, and Xiu Yuan instantly attacked the Twin Wing Python because the lone Darkbeast was their favorite.
Qing Hong who was standing by Yang Ye's side instead stared fixedly at the Twin Wing Python, yet the arrow in his hand was not released. He's waiting for an opportunity, a deadly opportunity. Otherwise, his arrow would not have been able to break through the Twin Wing Python's defenses.
However, a lone rank eight Darkbeast had appeared before them, and they were tempted by it.
When he saw them attacking him, the Twin Wings Python looked a little angry. His jade green eyes emitted a ferocious light while his huge wings suddenly flapped towards the ground. A violent storm of wind instantly gushed out and enveloped the three of them led by Man'zi.
The three of them were shocked when a strong wind appeared, and they hurriedly circulated their Profound Energy to their weapons before slashing down the storm.
In a short time, the three of them had broken through the strong wind and approached the Twin Wing Python. They seemed to be very experienced, and they did not directly fight him. They were endlessly avoiding the tail of the Twin Wing Python and liquid gushed from its mouth. Moreover, every time the Twin Wings Python pounced towards the three of them, the arrows carrying Profound Energy would whistle, causing the Twin Wings Python to have no choice but to ignore its attacks. For a time, the four of them fought the Twin Wing Python equally.
As he watched the battle, Yang Ye shook his head in his heart. Their cooperation was not bad at all, but their combat strength was really too weak. The three of them seemed to have occupied a favorable position as they fought the Twin Wings Python while moving around it, but they were completely unable to cause any injuries to it. Moreover, after the Twin Wings Python attacked one of them, even if that person did not die, it would still cause heavy injuries!
Moreover, once one of them was injured, the other two would be in danger!
When he had the three of them as a point of comparison, Yang Ye finally realized how great he was to be able to kill the sixth rank Darkbeast, the Colossal Python King, on that day. Because he used his fist to break through that Darkbeast defense!
This is not gonna work. This Twin Wing Python's defense was truly too formidable. The three of us are simply unable to defeat him! As he stared at the sparks caused by his sword hitting the Twin Wing Python, Xiu Yuan's eyes flickered as he pondered in his heart.
It was not only Xiu Yuan who had such thoughts at the moment, and even Man'zi and Xiao Hei had the same thoughts. At first, they thought that with their strength, the four of them would be able to deal with this eighth rank Darkbeast, but now, they realized that the four of them were simply unable to break through its defenses.
It doesn't seem easy being a mercenary! Yang Ye spoke in a low voice as he watched them fight fiercely. Just as he was intending to go and lend a hand, an unexpected event happened all of a sudden. Xiu Yuan who was originally in charge of the rights had taken the opportunity given to him when the Twin Wings Python attacked Man'zi, and he suddenly retreated quickly. Xiu Yuan retreated very quickly, and he left the battlefield in an instant. After which, he turned around and disappeared within the forest with a few jumps.
"How shameless!" Xiu Yuan's sudden departure caused the other three to be instantly exasperated. Qing Hong's pretty face reddened in anger, and she had the intention to shoot an arrow at Xiu Yuan. However, when he saw the Twin Wings Python attacking Man'zi ferociously, he could only immediately abandon this thought and quickly release many arrows into the Twin Wings Python.
As he watched Xiu Yuan escape, Yang Ye quietly shook his head. He originally thought that Xiu Yuan was only a little arrogant, yet he never expected that Xiu Yuan was cowardly and afraid of death until it instantly left his friends and fled for his life!
With the sudden departure of Xiu Yuan and the loss of someone to pin the Twin Wings Python from the right, the pressure that Man'zi and Xiao Hei felt instantly increased by several folds. However, the two of them did not choose to retreat because once one of them retreated, then the last person left would actually die!
"Yang Ye, hurry up and go." Meanwhile, Qing Hong turned around to roar loudly at Yang Ye. After which, he turned around and pulled his bowstring before releasing many arrows into the Twin Wing Python. He definitely could not leave because once he did, then Man'zi and Xiao Hei would definitely perish without him pinning down the Twin Wing Python from afar.
Yang Ye's heart warmed when he heard Qing Hong because even at this moment, this woman in front of him was still thinking about him. Yang Ye clenched the Black Iron Sword in his hand, and just as he was about to make a move, another unexpected event occurred. One of the arrows that Qing Hong shot out whistled through the air and directly entered into the right eye of the Twin Wing Python.
Feel it!
The excruciating pain he had suffered caused the Twin Wings Python to instantly go berserk, and his huge body twisted wildly on the ground. It stopped paying attention to Man'zi and Xiao Hei, and its huge wings suddenly flapped and caused a strong wind to appear as it pounced towards Qing Hong who was still mounting an arrow on his bowstring.
When he saw the Twin Wing Python directly pouncing towards him, Qing Hong's face immediately turned deathly pale. The Twin Wing Python was fast like a bolt of lightning, and practically arrived before Qing Hong in less than a moment. After which, his huge mouth opened wide before his bloody mouth bit down towards Qing Hong.
"NO!!" When he saw the Twin Wing Python's mouth biting towards Qing Hong, Man'zi was absolutely horrified, and he roared hysterically in anger while charging wildly towards the Twin Wing Python.
