Ch 21: Blood Hall

Although Lei Long explained everything, however, Lei Long was from Light Rain City's side in the end, so the Green Cloud City's side did not believe his words. More than ten minutes later, the Green Cloud City's people who went to scout the city returned.

"City Lord, there's danger inside, but it's fine." One of these people said.

"Alright!"

Lu Sha nodded and turned his head to say: "Lei Guang, since that's the case, let's go our separate ways. This way, we won't need to distribute the things we obtain, and naturally, our previous agreement of dividing the benefits fifty-fifty will void!"

"Lu Sha, are you afraid that I will ask for something very good that you might obtain here? Well, it is good as well. And finding fortunes here will depend on our own luck." Lei Guang chuckled and said with a smile.

Lu Sha only snorted and did not say anything.

The two of them then went their own separate ways.

According to the already-developed plot, since Ye Xiao was related to Lei Guang, he followed the group from Light Rain City and entered the Lost Forest to explore. But he did not plan to always follow behind these people.

He has no idea why the people from Green Cloud City and Light Rain City were introduced in the Trial of First Floor, but he was sure that they are not useless. They must have an important role to play.

Furthermore, since this was his trial, not the trials of City Lords, it would be much better if he go his own way instead of following behind others.

As for what will happen later in the trial, he can deal with them at that time.

.....

Half an hour after the team from Light Rain City entered the Lost Forest, the people from Green Cloud City returned.

After a while, the third group of people arrived. This had a total of six people, all wearing black clothes and having different levels of strength.

"Big brother, you're here." Lu Sha said to the middle-aged man in the lead.

This middle-aged man was also a Chaos Dust Realm cultivator just like Lu Sha and Lei Guang, and at the same time, he was Lu Sha's twin brother, Lu Shan.

It turned out that Lu Sha never intended to come here alone. He already informed everything to his twin brother before coming here. Then taking the opportunity, he separated from the group of Light Rain City, and once the group of Light Rain City entered, Lu Sha's group returned to wait for his brother.

"Little brother, has the team from Light Rain City entered the Lost Forest?" Lu Shan asked.

"Yes, they have entered. But this doesn't matter with Big Brother here. With your help, we will be able to find the ruin of Red Moon sooner than Lei Guang's group. At that time, all the treasures there will be ours, and not only that, we might even obtain the entire Light Rain City as well!"

Lu Sha nodded and laughed evilly.

This time, his luck was pretty good. His brother just happened to pass by the Green Cloud City, so he called him over.

"This time, I brought a few experts from the Blood Hall with me. Lei Guang will definitely die!" Lu Shan's eyes suddenly revealed a violent light.

The Blood Hall was an assassination force and Lu Shan was one of the assassins in the Blood Hall.

"With Big Bro's help, killing him won't be a problem!"

However, at this time, he suddenly felt that there was someone behind Lu Shan whose strength was too inferior, so he asked: "Big Brother, why do you have a Foundation Boundary cultivator in your group?"

Lu Shan's group had a total of six people. Other than Lu Shan, there was one more expert in Chaos Dust Realm and three experts in the different cycles of Chaotic Transformation. Other than these five people, there was one more person whose cultivation was only at the Ninth Realm of Foundation Boundary which was too low for this group of people.

Lu Sha seemed to have remembered that he had seen one such person among the group of Light Rain City as well. And maybe he looked down on Ye Xiao too much, he completely ignored Ye Xiao's existence.

"Don't underestimate him, he's the new assassin of my Blood Hall. Although he is only at the Ninth Realm of Foundation Boundary, he could even kill any expert in the Three Cycles of Chaotic Transformation with his assassination skill!" Lu Shan smiled slightly and explained.

"What?" Lu Sha was shocked when he heard this.

A Foundation Boundary cultivator killing experts in the Three Cycles of Chaotic Transformation?

Wasn't this a joke?

After a short conversation, Lu Sha, Lu Shan, and their group of people joined up before entering the Lost Forest as well.

.....

As the name says, the Lost Forest was a forest. But this was not a simple forest. The paths in the Lost Forest were crisscrossed. Saying that the paths inside the Lost Forest were a gigantic maze would not be wrong.

The team of Light Rain City did not know that they had already been targeted by a group of well-trained assassins.

At this time, somewhere in Lost Forest.

"Father, the terrain of this forest is too complicated. Our abilities don't seem to be strong enough to cross the Lost Forest. Fortunately, I have been leaving a hidden mark along the way so that we could return safely. If we really could not find anything and fall in great danger, we should retreat immediately!"

Lei Long couldn't help but say. He was worried because they have already faced a few Tree Demons. If not for the fact that people in his group were powerful enough, they would have been exterminated long ago.

Ye Xiao was in the middle of this group and had yet to leave them. Because of this group's help in dealing with Tree Demons, he was able to advance to this place safely. This was also the reason why he has yet to leave the place.

"You did good, son!" Lei Guang nodded solemnly. Even he forgot to leave behind a hidden mark along the way. If not for Lei Ling's wise decision, if they really fall into a desperate situation, retreating would have been extremely difficult.

"It's too complicated, we have spent so much time yet we still haven't found anything here. However, we have plenty of time, we might be able to find something very soon." Lei Guang said.

However, there were seven people in their group. It was a bit of a waste for the seven of them to walk together.

"City Lord, why don't we split up?" One of the people suggested.

"Yes, for the seven of us to act together, although our safety is high, the efficiency is too slow. If the people of Green Cloud City were to find the Ruin of Red Moon first, the treasures there would all be in their pockets."

"Yes," said the other.

Lei Guang pondered for a moment, then nodded: "That's fine, let's split our team into four groups. The three groups will have two people each. I will act alone."

Everyone looked at each other. Seven people, three teams, they could all be divided up.

Although Lei Guang said so, he did not want to act alone. He wanted Ye Xiao to go his own way. It is because Ye Xiao has already lost his worth the moment Lei Guang got the map of Lost Forest from Ye Xiao.

It is just that he was worried that Ye Xiao might still have something related to the Lost Forest in his possession. This is the reason why he excluded himself instead of Ye Xiao.

"No!" At this time, Ye Xiao finally reacted. He said, "City Lord Lei, I will act alone. But I still suggest everyone leave a hidden mark to avoid unexpected dangers."

Seeing that Ye Xiao himself wanted to go his separate way, Lei Guang happily agreed. But he did not show happiness on his face. Of course, his suspicions regarding Ye Xiao also increased a little. He could not understand why Ye Xiao wanted to act alone instead of having someone who could support him.

But it doesn't matter.

Staying safe was more important in this unknown forest.

They divided up and everyone soon separated.

Ye Xiao was also happy to act alone. But there were a few things that were on his mind for a long time now.

Is everything here real?

If everything here is real, does it mean that the treasures found here should also be real? And it also meant that if he use those treasures, he could increase his strength.

This place was very strange.

His eight-year-old self seemed to have transformed into a normal adult. He did not look like a child in any manner at all.

Well, Ye Xiao has to admit that this also saved a lot of trouble for him.
