Chapter 21: Fighting in Groups (Three)

  The green light revolved and transformed, slowly shrinking into a beam that pierced through the dense fog at an angle, heading downwards. A winding mountain path appeared faintly in the green light, stretching deep into the mountains as far as the eye could see, until it disappeared into the valley.

  "Misty Valley is open, Misty Valley is open."

  Many people cheered, hundreds of eyes lit up at the same time, and they rushed forward in a swarm. Suddenly, nearly half of the men in green clothes drew their long swords, forming a sword array with a loud whooshing sound, sealing off the narrow path into the valley, the sharp blades making one's heart tremble with fear.

  The sword array was exquisite, and the long swords on the wrists of the people in green clothes were straight, looking at ** with icy eyes.

  The rest of the men in green clothes followed the leader, laughing coldly as they rushed into the valley and disappeared into the thick fog in an instant.

  The Qin family obviously made it clear that they would take the lead and monopolize the resources in the valley. Everyone was anxious, and some even cursed loudly:

  "Your grandma's! Are you Qin family so unsympathetic? You eat meat and won't even give others a sip of soup?"

  "What's that supposed to mean? You're trying to block the way into the valley with just your family's power?"

  "Come on everyone, let's push forward, we'll make it through."

  The "treasure" in the Misty Valley had opened its doors to them, but at this moment they were blocked at the entrance. Everyone was about to burst with rage. A few bold ones charged forward with a whoosh, and all that could be heard were a few light rustling sounds. The man in green clothing shifted his feet slightly, and the sword's edge flashed dazzlingly. Those few people fell into a pool of blood in an instant.

  The crowd of people on the periphery were shocked at the same time, and those in front retreated hastily to the back. However, those behind continued to surge forward, causing the crowd to become chaotic instantly. The hundreds of people on the periphery were leaderless, and with hundreds of people against these dozens of people, they were surprisingly unable to do anything.

  Chaos erupted for a while, and several more people rushed up to be killed by the sword formation. No one dared to come forward again. Those men in green clothes who had entered the valley were already unknown how far they had gone. All the good things on the way would be taken away by them, and many people's eyes turned red.

  In his previous life, Li Ruo had entered the valley but got nothing. In this life, he was still blocked by these green-clad men here. Seeing the spiritual medicine in the valley being obtained by others, Li Ruo's heart was also somewhat anxious and angry. He coldly smiled and slowly walked into the crowd, his hoarse voice shouting loudly amidst the chaos:

  "I'll count one, two, three, and we'll all rush together. I don't believe they can stop so many of us."

  "Right, let's charge together."

  "Damn it, we have hundreds of people, and we're still afraid of these few bastards?"

  Li Ran shouted loudly: "One, two, three, let's charge!"

  The enraged crowd suddenly erupted, with many people rushing forward in confusion, brandishing knives and guns. The sound of clashing metal filled the air as dozens of men in green robes formed a rotating sword array, somehow withstanding the immense pressure and blocking wave after wave of attackers outside. Many of those who charged from the periphery were stabbed, blood gushing out, and let out loud cries of agony.

  This round of morale is about to be exhausted, and many people have already retreated.

  Just then, Li Ran's dagger was hidden in the crowd, his body flashed past the person in front of him, a short crossbow was cocked in his hand, and an arrow made of refined steel was swiftly loaded onto the crossbow. The vital energy surged into the crossbow like a bursting dam, and with a whooshing sound, a powerful gust of wind shot out.

  A man in a green robe was exchanging positions with someone else, when suddenly an arrow pierced his leg, and before he could even react, the arrow had shot through his leg bone. One of his legs immediately lost all sensation, and he fell to the ground with a thud. A hunter standing next to him swung down with his long knife, beheading the man in green robes with one swift stroke.

  The arrow shot by Half Spirit Archer was too fast, and even everyone didn't notice.

  The swordsman was stunned for a moment, having just narrowly escaped being stabbed by his opponent's sharp sword and had resigned himself to certain death, only to see his opponent inexplicably fall over and save him.

  Hunter's momentary madness: Is heaven helping me?

  The deceased green-robed man suddenly disrupted the entire sword formation, and the sword formation was continuous front and back. The sword light was instantly swept away by the surging crowd.

  "Haha, the Qin family is finished, let's charge!"

  "The Qin family can't stop us now, kill them, wipe out these bastards."

  A loud shout, hundreds of people's morale greatly boosted, roaring and rushing forward.

  Dozens of men in green clothes changed their faces and looked at each other. One of them shouted coldly: "Withdraw, we enter the valley."

  The men in green robes formed a column and retreated quickly into the Misty Valley, hundreds of people rushing like a tide, afraid to fall behind and have all the treasures found by others. They followed closely behind the men in green robes, shouting and rushing into the Misty Valley.

  Li Ran's heart was burning with anxiety, as the large group of people rushed past the small road that must be taken to enter the valley, the entire mountain valley was filled with a faint mist, and visibility was limited.

  Everyone knows that the valley is treacherous, and hidden dangers may lurk everywhere in the thick fog. Each team cautiously gathered together and probed inward.

  Li Ruo took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, and he swiftly hid behind a mountain wall. He then climbed up along a steep slope, heading upwards at an angle. He had been here in his previous life, so he was quite familiar with the roads around the edge of the valley.

  Following the direction of the crowd, he moved forward tentatively, but all the good things had already been taken by those who arrived earlier. The Misty Valley was so vast, and taking a different path might just lead to another hidden paradise.

  Crossing a slope, a sparse and strange forest appeared before his eyes. Li Ranno knew that the edge of the forest was almost devoid of anything valuable, so he didn't waste time here and strode into the depths of the forest.

  The trees in the forest were all strange and weird, with sparse leaves and twisted gray-brown branches that curled up towards the sky like a giant snake. Li Ran had been running in the forest for a while, his speed gradually slowing down, he had already run deep into the misty valley, if he went further forward, he didn't know what kind of danger he would encounter.

  Li Ruo carefully made his way forward, venturing deeper into the strange forest, where the trees and grass grew increasingly lush.

  Li Ranno's heart was slightly excited, with lush vegetation, it was possible that spiritual medicine could grow. Li Ranno's spiritual medicine technique was one of the best in the world, and he was known as one of the most famous alchemists on the entire Qin Feng continent. To put it bluntly, even if all the hundreds of people in the valley were tied together, they still couldn't match Li Ranno's ability to identify medicines.

  Li Ruo's eyes, mouth and nose all moved, fearing that he would miss the spiritual medicine. Just then, from the dense fog in the distance, the sound of two people's conversation faintly came over, and judging by the sound, they should be walking towards him.

  Li Ruo's heart skipped a beat, if someone could penetrate so quickly here, it must be those Qin family's green-clothed men. Those people were all strong and hard, in case they encountered them, he didn't know whether they would take action against him or not. Li Ruo didn't dare to take the risk, hastily turned around and sprinted in another direction. After running several steps far away, fortunately, the fog concealed him, and he was not discovered by the other party.
