They were thrown into the hands of Bu Yingjun and the other two.

Um?

What?!

"Holy crap! Body Restoration Pill! So many Body Restoration Pill!"

Bu Yingjun rubbed his eyes. "Am I seeing things?"

After rubbing it in, he discovered that the Body Restoration Pill was still there, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Shen Xu Yi Tang were also completely unsettled.

To be precise, I haven't been calm since I learned that Jiang Fan possessed a spatial ring.

It's really exciting, one thrill after another!

With hearts pounding with excitement, the three of them gazed at Jiang Fan, their curiosity reaching its peak.

Who exactly is he?!

"Kill the enemy first."

Jiang Fan's words brought the three of them back to reality. They immediately swallowed the Body Restoration Pill and stood guard beside Wei Cangyue with Jiang Fan.

"This--this-this--"

Lu Hen opened his mouth wide, wide enough to stuff his entire body inside.

His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and they were covered in bloodshot veins.

"Just who is this kid?" His teammates were also extremely shocked.

Upon hearing this, Lu Hen stared intently at Jiang Fan, scrutinizing him from head to toe, his brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly.

" Captain Lu, what do we do now? It looks like Wei Cangyue is about to break through. Are we just going to stand by and watch?"

"Yes, why don't we strike while he's weakened and launch a surprise attack to stop Wei Cangyue from breaking through?"

"No." Lu Hen's gaze shifted from Jiang Fan to Wei Cangyue.

"Why?"

"Are you brainless? If we rush out now and get discovered, they might associate it with the fact that we lured the Crimson Abyss Bird here."

"Then let's clean them all out. That way, even if they're discovered, they'll all be dead."

As soon as his teammate finished speaking, Lu Hen kicked him away.

"You really are brainless, haven't you forgotten what I said before? The higher-ups have already sent people to secretly investigate the Sharp Edge Squad. If we rush out now, are we just walking into a trap?"

Upon hearing these words, the teammate who had been kicked immediately shut up.

Just then...

"Boom--"

The earth-shattering sound was like a thunderbolt striking everyone's head.

You've broken through!

All eyes turned to Wei Cangyue at that moment, and feeling the terrifying pressure emanating from Wei Cangyue, everyone fell silent.

Even the Crimson Kite Bird that were fighting desperately stopped for a moment, as if a pause button had been pressed.

"Hahaha--"

Having successfully cracked the code, Wei Cangyue let out an incredibly hearty and cheerful laugh.

"I've finally broken through!"

For some reason, what Jiang Fan heard in that voice was not joy, but a release of long-suppressed emotions, a pent-up frustration that he couldn't express to anyone else.

" Captain Wei, I... I... I... I..." Bu Yingjun's lips trembled, and as soon as he uttered the words, tears streamed down his face as if they were free.

"Useless." Shen Xu muttered.

"Exactly," Shen Xu agreed.

Then the two turned their heads to one side and began wiping their faces.

Looking back, Wei Cangyue, as a promising rising star, should have already broken through to the Sixth Rank, and might even have broken through to the Seventh Rank.

However, he sacrificed himself for their Sharp Edge Squad. Over the years, he has been busy with the squad's affairs and neglected his cultivation, which is why he is only at the High-Stage Fifth Rank now.

If it weren't for the massive amount of Qi and Blood Raw Stone that Tang Fan gave them, given the resources their team has accumulated so far, it would probably take Wei Cangyue a very long time to break through to the Sixth Rank.

Thinking of this, the three of them felt an unprecedented level of gratitude towards Jiang Fan.

"Stop crying, everyone, run!"

Although Wei Cangyue is now at the Early-Stage Sixth Rank, he knows that even if he exhausts himself to death, he cannot kill all the Crimson Kite Bird that are as numerous as the stars.

"Who's crying! I just got sand in my tears!"

Wei Cangyue was too lazy to expose them. "Now the sand's been squeezed out, right? Run!"

It must be said that Wei Cangyue's strength increased One Star after breaking through to the Early-Stage Sixth Rank.

Under his leadership, it took him more than half an hour to finally lead all his teammates to safety.

They were just running, focused only on escaping for their lives, and didn't pay attention to the direction they were running, which led them into a very strange peach grove.

"Hiss--" Bu Yingjun hugged his arms and rubbed them, getting goosebumps all over. He looked around warily, trying to find something that seemed strange to him.

"Don't you guys feel like there are a lot of eyes watching us?"

"You sensed it too?" Shen Xu also observed his surroundings with a wary expression.

Wei Cangyue walked to Jiang Fan's side and whispered something in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"Did you find anything?"

Jiang Fan shook his head, his expression serious.

"I just released my Psychic Power as much as I could, but I still can't see the end of the peach grove."

Upon hearing this, Wei Cangyue's face showed surprise.

With Jiang Fan's current Psychic Power, which can cover an area of over 10,000 square meters, he still couldn't see the end of the peach grove?

Just how big is this place?

"I have a feeling something's off about this place, let's get out of here first."

"Yes, that's what I think too."

Jiang Fan led the way, with Wei Cangyue following closely behind, so that he could protect Jiang Fan as soon as possible.

However, after walking for more than an hour, they still hadn't left the peach grove.

What Jiang Fan found even stranger was that, with his current Psychic Power, after walking for so long, even if he couldn't get out of the peach grove, he should have been able to see the end of it by now, within the maximum possible coverage of his Psychic Power.

Stop.

Wei Cangyue didn't want Jiang Fan to continue wasting his Psychic Power.

Like Psychic Power energy also needs time to recover after it is depleted.

Continuing to waste resources is undoubtedly unwise.

"What should we do now?" Jiang Fan asked.

"I've never heard of this place before. After all, the Outer Wilderness Zone is so vast that humans haven't fully explored it yet, not to mention the many unknown and mysterious spaces that exist there," Wei Cangyue said.

"Something like a folded space, like the Zhou Family Cultivation Secret Realm?" Jiang Fan asked again.

"More or less." Wei Cangyue explained while looking around, his brows gradually furrowing.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Fan quickly asked, "Did we accidentally stumble into a folded space?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other teammates all changed drastically.

Wei Cangyue, in particular, frowned even more deeply.

Because Jiang Fan had guessed exactly what he was thinking.

"So what should we do now?" Jiang Fan asked.

"It's getting dark soon, let's rest for a while." At this, Wei Cangyue paused, squinting as he looked around at the blooming peach trees, his eyes filled with wariness.

"I have a feeling there's something strange about these trees; everyone should stay away from them."
