"Chase!"
Xiao Huohuo finally broke through the encirclement, but the toxins he had inhaled were already making him feel slightly dizzy.
"Hateful..."
Feeling the group of people chasing after him from behind, Xiao Huohuo no longer dared to slow down.
After storing the Heavy Xuan Ruler in his Storage Ring, his speed increased significantly, and he swiftly fled into the distance among the tree branches.
"Chase him! No one's there to help him at this level; looks like he's all alone!"
Inside the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, Shi Yang watched Xiao Huohuo flee alone and finally felt relieved.
Without knowing how many people were secretly involved, ambushing and killing Xiao Huohuo was undoubtedly the best solution.
Regardless of whether there are people lurking in the shadows, taking steady and cautious steps is always the right approach.
Moreover, judging from what just happened, Shi Yang had already realized that this kid probably hadn't been away from home for long and had never experienced the dangers of the outside world.
"Another pretty face who grew up at home!"
A hint of disdain flashed in Shi Yang's eyes, but more than that, there was a hint of jealousy.
The fact that the opponent was able to reach the level of Three-Star Dou Zhe at such a young age shows that, in addition to talent, resources are also indispensable.
Moreover, Shi Yang clearly felt the power of Xiao Huohuo's Suction Palm when she made her move; it was clearly the fluctuation of Black Tier Dou Technique.
This strengthened Shi Yang's resolve to kill Xiao Huohuo.
After obtaining a Black Tier Dou Technique, combined with my contributions this time, I will definitely have a share!
With that in mind, Shi Yang no longer hesitated and led his team to chase after Xiao Huohuo.
"Haha, Captain, don't worry. That kid's been poisoned by me. The longer this drags on, the weaker he'll become!"
The mercenary who had fired the sneak arrow and then used poison to slow down Xiao Huohuo spoke with a sinister smile.
"Everyone, be serious! We can't afford any more mistakes!"
Shi Yang nodded, and then continued chasing ahead.
In terms of survival skills in the wild and familiarity with the mountains, Xiao Huohuo is no match for the mercenaries of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, even if he tries to outdo them.
After all, they depend on this mountain range for their survival.
Unlike Xiao Huohuo, who was a newcomer to the area.
Moreover, each mercenary has been fighting their way through the Magical Beast Mountain Range for many years, and those who can be led by Shi Yang are the elite among them.
Therefore, Xiao Huohuo's escape route was very obvious to them, with no trace of concealment whatsoever.
"Relax a bit. When you're escaping, try to set up some small traps to confuse the enemy, and observe your surroundings for any geographical advantages you can take advantage of."
Having just taken the Poison Pill, Xiao Huohuo, upon hearing Xiao Yan's voice beside her, couldn't help but complain:
"You just watched me get beaten up? It was so dangerous just now. If I had reacted even a fraction slower, I would be dead."
Hearing Xiao Yan Xiao Huohuo's complaints, Xiao Yan couldn't help but chuckle:
"Do you even believe what you're saying?"
Xiao Huohuo didn't speak again, after all, just as Xiao Yan said, she had mastered the Earth Tier Dou Technique Flame Splitting Wave Ruler, and now she also had Xiao Yan's Soul Skill.
If it came down to a fight to the death, Xiao Huohuo had plenty of trump cards up his sleeve to deal with this group of mercenaries.
Following Xiao Yan's instructions, Xiao Huohuo tried her best not to leave any traces in the forest while surveying the surrounding conditions that could be utilized.
"Are you crazy? Can't we use that Magical Beast over there? If we stir up trouble, they'll chase after us and end up fighting that Magical Beast!"
Xiao Yan watched as the figure in the forest began to change shape, trying to avoid breaking branches or leaving marks, and said with exasperation.
"But... that Magical Beast doesn't have much combat power..."
"You're running for your life right now, who cares if they can fight? Make a scene first! Like this..."
As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a Poison Pill landed where Xiao Huohuo had just passed, and purple poisonous mist instantly filled the area.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Huohuo's expression turned somewhat grim. "This... this directly exposes that I'm here?"
"Do you really think you've gotten rid of them now?"
Xiao Yan spoke calmly:
"To counterattack, you need to be in the dark while the enemy is in the open, or there might be natural traps along the way that you can set up. What you need to do now is to make it as difficult for them to track you as possible while you are escaping their pursuit."
From behind, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group members could be heard cursing and swearing.
The Poison Pill left behind by Xiao Yan successfully slowed down their pursuit.
Xiao Huohuo nodded as if he understood, glanced back at the commotion behind him, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
He and Xiao Yan share the same soul.
In addition, due to her perspective from her previous life, she was able to react immediately with just a reminder from Xiao Yan.
The reason he was tricked by the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was ultimately because he didn't realize he was in a world where people could draw their knives and fight at any moment.
So they weren't on guard.
As he walked along the way, Xiao Huohuo produced several jade bottles in his hand, which he skillfully left behind along his escape route.
When the Wolf Head Mercenary Group members passed by, they immediately sensed that something was wrong.
"Bro, you smell so good..."
A murmured voice rang out, and the burly man with overflowing chest hair looked at the mercenary in front of him, his gaze fixed on the man's shapely buttocks.
On a whim, I reached out and touched the other person's wicked peach!
"Ah!!!! Hu Laosan! You're asking for it!"
Screams rang out from within the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's ranks, and only then did everyone realize what was happening.
"Watch out on the road!" Shi Yang immediately reminded everyone.
Not only did they have to hunt down Xiao Huohuo along the way, but now they also had to guard against the Poison Pill and traps he might have left behind. The members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group could clearly feel the resentment.
"Call out!"
An arrow was shot toward Xiao Huohuo, but it was easily dodged.
Xiao Huohuo turned around and met Shi Yang's gaze.
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Huohuo's eyes as he made a decapitation gesture towards the other party.
Even when surrounded, Xiao Huohuo had ways to escape, and now...
The enemy's pursuit was precisely what allowed him to compensate for his lack of combat experience.
Therefore, in Xiao Huohuo's heart...
It was no longer Shi Yang and his group chasing him; instead, they were using the other party to continuously improve their own experience.
Xiao Huohuo possessed Yao Lao's ring, which contained a multitude of strangely effective pills.
With Xiao Yan occasionally helping him avoid powerful Magical Beast, and his ability to identify the properties of medicinal herbs along the way, he was able to thrive in these mountains.
Furthermore, they set some traps, luring some Magical Beast to attack the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
Soon, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group suffered casualties.
"Retreat!"
Shi Yang made a quick decision; he had already figured it out.
Although the opponent lacked experience, the chances of them being able to surround and kill them again were slim.
Despite his immense anger, Shi Yang managed to suppress his emotions and give the order to retreat!
