"Thank you for your hard work!"
Ling Feng said in a deep voice.
Ji Yun Yue was a powerful individual and wouldn't be easily killed.
At the same time, he felt a greater sense of respect for Ji Yun Yue.
Ji Yun Yue's strength was the strongest among the three, yet she was ultimately trapped in the Xuan Formation.
This could only mean that she had given the chance to escape to the other two.
Everyone who sacrificed themselves for others deserved respect, especially such a powerful individual!
"Fortunately, we survived."
Ji Yun Yue took a deep breath, feeling a sense of surviving a disaster.
She took out a white pill and swallowed it, supporting herself as she walked towards Guan Ya and the other.
Ji Yun Yue's steps were already unsteady, but she walked with great determination.
The battle just now had consumed all her energy, yet she still had to persevere.
Not falling was the path every strong person had to take.
In contrast, the mysterious girl and Guan Ya, relieved to have escaped and joyful and at ease seeing Ling Feng and the other, had completely relaxed and collapsed.
"Saintess!"
"You're alive, that's great!"
Both of them looked at Ji Yun Yue with immense excitement.
After the life-and-death battle just now, their revolutionary friendship had advanced by leaps and bounds.
"Don't speak, take the medicine. This is Gu Ling Pill, personally concocted by Master, which can restore vitality to the Gu spirit!"
Ji Yun Yue took out two pills and personally fed them to the two, specially giving Guan Ya two more.
If it weren't for Guan Ya's life-saving protection this time, she wouldn't have been able to break through.
Guan Ya had made no small contribution to all of this.
The mysterious girl beside them was also the key to this battle. If she hadn't left a hand on Shan Han Yi beforehand, no matter how closely they cooperated today, none of them would have escaped.
This battle against the Gu poison Xuan Formation was inextricably linked to the efforts of the three.
It was only at the last moment that Ji Yun Yue was able to save their lives, and Guan Ya and the mysterious girl were naturally grateful.
After the thrilling battle just now, all three were exhausted, but there seemed to be a hint of warmth in the air.
Ling Feng looked at the three of them squatting together and couldn't help but recall the brothers-in-arms he had fought alongside on the battlefield. Most of them no longer had the chance to sit with him.
But they were by Ling Feng's side, within Ling Feng, and within Ling Feng's life!
This life was built upon their lives.
Ling Feng had promised not to let his companions, his comrades, fall before him again!
Today, Ling Feng had almost broken his promise!
And all of this was because of one person!
Shan Han Yi!
He turned to look at Shan Han Yi, his eyes filled with surging killing intent.
"Die!"
Ling Feng's voice echoed through the sky, like the wrath of a god.
Ji Yun Yue and the other two were startled, and simultaneously turned to look at Ling Feng.
They saw Ling Feng rapidly leaving, leaving only an afterimage.
The three quickly stood up and, with surging killing intent, rushed towards the hillside.
However, the three had just experienced a life-and-death battle, and only now had they recovered some strength. When they rushed up, they were still quite a bit slower than Ling Feng.
Ling Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his face so cold it could freeze at any moment.
The three looked down at the ground and were stunned.
Dead bodies everywhere!
These were all Shan Han Yi's subordinates.
Their bodies were still warm, their blood was still hot, and the temperature had not yet dissipated. They must have… died just now!
Ji Yun Yue's face turned pale. She walked to Ling Feng's side and asked in a deep voice, "Did you do all this?"
Ling Feng shook his head and denied it.
The three were even more confused.
Ji Yun Yue furrowed her brows tightly!
The mysterious girl, supporting Guan Ya, walked around and couldn't help but exclaim with a dark expression, "No! Shan Han Yi is not here!"
Indeed, Shan Han Yi was nowhere to be found. Only Shan Han Yi's subordinates were dead.
Who exactly was it?
Within the short span of one or two minutes just now, these people had been killed without a sound.
Suddenly, Guan Ya showed a look of understanding and said loudly, "It's Shan Han Yi, it must be him! Only he would be so cruel and despicable! He must have been worried about the matter of him ambushing us with the Gu poison Xuan Formation being exposed."
At this point, Guan Ya's tone became even more certain.
"Later, when he saw Senior Ling Feng, he knew his plan couldn't succeed, so he ruthlessly killed these people to silence them, so he could deny everything."
The mysterious girl agreed with this reasoning and nodded slightly.
Ji Yun Yue crouched down to examine the bodies, then shook her head and said with certainty, "It wasn't Shan Han Yi!"
"He didn't kill them? Then… could there be someone else?" Guan Ya was even more astonished.
"No need to guess. Let's go to his tent on the mountainside to find him, and all the answers will be revealed!"
The mysterious girl was eager to confront Shan Han Yi and demand an explanation. Judging from the situation just now, Shan Han Yi must have been injured as well.
Moreover, with Ling Feng present, it wouldn't be difficult to deal with Shan Han Yi.
But Ling Feng raised his hand to stop them.
"No need to go. The person is no longer here."
This made the three even more surprised and uncertain, and they all looked at Ling Feng.
He was the first to arrive here, and if he could make such a conclusion, he must have discovered something.
Ling Feng raised his hand, picked up a corpse, and gently felt its forehead. He pulled out a bronze needle.
"What… what is this? A hidden weapon?" Guan Ya's eyes widened.
"I think I've seen this somewhere before!" The mysterious girl's originally fair face turned even paler, as if she had recalled something unpleasant.
Ji Yun Yue also felt the forehead of a corpse on the ground and quickly pulled out another bronze needle.
"They were killed by this thing. On it…"
Seeing that Ji Yun Yue was about to touch the tip of the needle.
Ling Feng immediately shouted, "Don't touch it! There's corpse poison on it!"
"Corpse poison?" The three exclaimed in unison. Ji Yun Yue instinctively dropped the bronze needle she was holding.
Unbeknownst to them, the corpse whose bronze needle had just been removed at Ji Yun Yue's feet suddenly opened its eyes!
