Chapter 90: The Predicament of the Mercenary Group

"Nie Feng not only has an inextricable relationship with Fama, the president of the Alchemist Guild, but also has a mysterious master that even the Imperial Family fears. We are indeed not far from death." Dali sighed and smiled bitterly.

"It seems the cause of death of the mercenaries we sent out has been found." Ji Lei sighed and said.

"Damn, who spread the news, causing us to suffer heavy losses and also face the danger of being destroyed at any time. If I know who did it, I will definitely kill him!" Laman slapped the table and roared.

"Hehe, even if he is standing in front of you, you wouldn't dare to take action." Ling Yun listened to Laman's words and smiled bitterly.

"You know who it is?" The three people in the tent all looked towards Ling Yun.

"We have been used as that stone to test the path!" Ling Yun sighed and said.

"What do you mean?" The three leaders looked at Ling Yun in confusion.

Only when Yao Ye asked him would he answer, and every time he answered, he was very serious and careful.

"I think it shouldn't be. Powerhouses have their own bottom line. As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke them, he won't take action against us weaklings. We just need to deliberately reveal flaws when searching. I think after he sees it, he will let us go. After all, people who have nothing to do won't take the initiative to step on ants." Ling Yun shook his head and said slowly.

"Yes!" The man in black retreated.

"What method?" The three mercenary group leaders asked in unison.

"This... this is death if we leave, and if we don't leave, we have to face Nie Feng's mysterious powerhouse at any time, and we may disappear inexplicably at any time like those missing people. Tell me what to do?" Laman was at a loss.

Until the early morning of the next day, a golden light appeared on the horizon, which broke the silence here.

Xiao Yan's side was calm, but the Imperial Capital side exploded directly. The major forces in the Imperial Capital had always been paying attention to Xiao Yan's situation, especially the Imperial Family who spread Xiao Yan's news.

After all, people had already raised the white flag to surrender. If Xiao Yan was still unforgiving, that would not be good.

I saw hundreds of mercenaries slowly entering the Magical Beast Mountain Range at the entrance of the Magical Beast Mountain Range. These mercenaries searched carefully as soon as they entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

"Drag it!" Ling Yun slowly spat out a word.

"Stupid! Ling Yun means let us pretend." Ji Lei heard Ling Yun's method and immediately clapped his hands and cheered.

"What? More than two thousand people disappeared all at once, and no traces were left!" Yao Ye stood up instantly, a bit incredulous.

"Retreat?" Ling Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Why? Is there anyone blocking it?" Laman also wanted to retreat at this time. After all, he really didn't dare to wade into this muddy water.

"Then let's just retreat directly! Although the loss this time is great, the main force is still there. As long as we retreat in time, it won't take long to recover our vitality." Dali said.

"Leaving now is death, and not leaving might be able to live. As long as we drag Nie Feng out of this area of the Imperial Capital, then we can escape this disaster. From now on, we must carefully search for this youth named Nie Feng, search through the entire Magical Beast Mountain Range, search carefully, don't even let go of a cockroach nest." Ling Yun said his thoughts.

This middle-aged man called Liang Ye by Yao Ye had an extraordinary appearance, a burly figure, and black armor, looking very majestic.

"Don't you understand yet? The letter says that Nie Feng once politely declined the solicitation of the three top forces of the Empire, and later followed President Fama to his residence. Since then, he has never appeared again. The Imperial Family and the three major clans of the Empire all ate closed doors and didn't even see his face. But facing such a person with potential, and the force behind him, these people must be desperately trying to establish a relationship with Nie Feng. Not to mention the force behind Nie Feng, just the favor of President Fama is enough to make them feel moved." Ling Yun explained.

But Xiao Yan waited on the tree for a night, except for the occasional roar of magical beasts, it was unusually quiet.

"Liang Ye, you say what level of strength is needed to kill more than two thousand people so easily without leaving a trace." Yao Ye, who was walking back and forth in the hall, suddenly said to the middle-aged man beside her.

If he really forced people into a corner and came to a fish-dead-net-broken situation, Xiao Yan wouldn't have any good fruit to eat. Xiao Yan was powerful, but he was only a Dou Zhe now. Wanting to take action against a Great Dou Master was wishful thinking.

Liang Ye was the personal guard of Princess Yao Ye. Whether it was battlefield experience or knowledge, he was first-class. He didn't talk much usually, just silently guarding Yao Ye's side.

"What, still searching? Isn't this looking for death?" Dali instantly felt that Ling Yun must be crazy.

"Hehe, it seems that those people in the mercenary group are not all stupid. Someone can see my intention! Alright! You go down!" Yao Ye chuckled twice.

"Those people were thinking of using stones to test the path, but when they lowered their heads, they found that the stone was gone. Tell me, how will they deal with that disobedient stone?" Ling Yun said in a deep voice.

Ji Lei and Dali also cast their eyes on Ling Yun.

In the Imperial Palace of the Imperial Capital.

"Are you saying that their purpose in spreading Nie Feng's news first was to let us chase Nie Feng, and then he would take action to kill us?" Ji Lei widened his eyes, a bit understanding.

"So that's how it is!" Dali also understood instantly.

"But what if the person behind Nie Feng comes to seek revenge?" Dali asked worriedly.

"They are searching the Magical Beast Mountain Range carefully now, but they are just pretending." The man in black replied seriously.

There were also those who climbed trees, finding that they wanted to see if Xiao Yan was hiding in a tree hole.

"There is only one way now!" Ling Yun pondered for a while, then said.

"What is the reaction of the three major mercenary groups at this time?" Yao Ye asked.

Xiao Yan saw these mercenaries searching so carefully, pondered for a while, and then smiled and said: "It seems that there are not all stupid people in this mercenary group! This is obviously knowing that I have someone behind me and not daring to provoke me!"

"There are no stupid people in this world, only people who think others are stupid!" After Xiao Yan said this, he turned and left directly.

The search was quite careful. Some mercenaries didn't even let go of ant nests, using hoes to shovel them open, wanting to see if Xiao Yan was inside.

It was just that in his eyes, a trace of sharpness was revealed, as if it would erupt at any time.

"Alright! Then we will arrange for people to enter the mountain tomorrow." Ji Lei and Dali nodded after hearing Ling Yun's words.

"Yes! This matter has already spread in the Imperial Capital. All major clans are discussing it now, guessing how these two thousand mercenaries disappeared, and the result of the guess is about the same, thinking it was done by the mysterious master behind Nie Feng." The man in black knelt on the ground and replied respectfully.

"Are you saying it's dragging time?" Laman asked with some doubt.

Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Princess Yao Ye, dressed in military uniform, sat in the center of the hall, listening to the report of the man in black under the hall about Xiao Yan's affairs. When she heard that the two thousand people sent into the Magical Beast Mountain Range by the three major mercenary groups had disappeared inexplicably, her heart was suddenly shocked.

"Yes! As long as we force Nie Feng into a desperate situation, they will immediately jump out to rescue. In this way, whether it is Nie Feng, President Fama of the Alchemist Guild, or the powerhouse behind Nie Feng, they will be grateful to them." Ling Yun nodded.

In the dark night, a black human figure stood on a big tree, looking towards the entrance of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Since all the people of the three major mercenary groups left, Xiao Yan had been watching that direction, wanting to see if anyone entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range at night.
