My chat group is full of female losers

Chapter 381 Approaching
Chu Lu cautiously looked around.

The eerie smell of the potion permeated the night air, while the rustling sounds in the forest grew increasingly dense, as if countless tiny claws were parting the grass and rapidly converging on his location.

Suddenly, a sharp buzzing sound came from afar, breaking the silence of the mountain forest.

Suddenly, a dark cloud appeared out of the grass ahead. It wasn't a cloud at all, but a swarm of thousands of fist-sized poisonous insects with scarlet compound eyes and ferocious mouthparts, swarming towards Chu Lu like a tidal wave.

Chu Lu neither dodged nor evaded, but simply and casually struck out with his palm in front of him.

The palm strike is invisible, yet it contains immense power.

The surging swarm of insects seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall, exploding instantly. Countless poisonous insects turned into a cloud of green dust, unable to get even a fraction of them near Chu Lu.

However, just as the swarm of insects dispersed, several enormous, glaring tigers leaped out, their eyes bloodshot and emitting threatening growls from their throats.

Meanwhile, in the more distant mountains and forests, the commotion grew louder and louder. Trees swayed, the ground trembled, and the roars and stampedes of countless wild beasts merged into a torrent, like a massive beast tide migrating towards the area.

Seeing this scene, Chu Lu instantly understood the purpose of the potion.

"Isn't this the potion Xiao Jiu used before? The kind that attracts wild animals." He couldn't help but think to himself, "How come Su Lian Yue has it too?"

"As I mentioned before, all sorts of potions with strange and unusual effects are common, basic types found everywhere in the female protagonist's cheat system," Qin Su explained.

As they spoke, the tigers could no longer contain themselves and roared as they pounced, their claws gleaming with a chilling light in the moonlight.

Chu Lu stopped talking nonsense. He casually took off the coat that was stained with the smell of medicine and threw it forcefully into the deep ravine.

He then moved swiftly and met the horde of beasts.

Facing the charging tiger, Chu Lu didn't even glance at it, casually sidestepping and throwing a punch. The fist struck the tiger precisely in the abdomen, breaking its spine instantly, and its massive body flew out like a ripped sack.

Another tiger attacked from the side, its jaws wide open, aiming for his neck. Chu Lu grabbed its upper and lower jaws with his backhand, his arm muscles slightly tensing.

Tear!

With a sickeningly loud tearing sound, the ferocious wolf was ripped in two, its hot blood and entrails spilling onto the ground.

He pressed onward. Any wild beast that dared to approach, whether a mighty black bear or a swift cheetah, could not withstand a single blow from him. Some had their skulls smashed by a punch, others had their bones broken by a kick; blood and flesh flew everywhere, and screams of agony filled the air.

Before long, all the wild beasts were killed. The beasts that arrived later were also frightened and retreated after smelling the strong smell of blood.

"It seems that's all they have to offer." Qin Su breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

However, Chu Lu looked at the ground and suddenly said, "So that's it, that's her purpose."

"What's wrong?" Qin Su asked.

Chu Lu pointed ahead.

Qin Su looked in the direction he pointed and saw that the path ahead was a mess, with countless wild animal footprints crisscrossing, completely covering the traces left by Su Lianyue and the others.

Meanwhile, deep within the Black Wind Mountains, inside a long-abandoned, dilapidated temple.

When Su Lianyue and her group arrived at this place, everyone looked exhausted.

"Madam, let's rest here for a while," a guard said.

With the plan successful and the trap in place, Su Lian Yue was no longer in a hurry. She nodded, found a relatively clean stone step, and sat down, feeling incredibly smug. The potion carried by the assassin was indeed not intended to kill the group leader. She knew very well that a beast attack of that level wouldn't be able to harm the group leader who could easily defeat the Third Princess.

Her goal was clear from the beginning: to use the out-of-control beast tide to completely destroy all traces they left behind. The Black Wind Mountains are so vast that once they've disappeared, it won't be so easy for the group leader to find them again.

All I need to do now is wait patiently for Fei Wu to arrive.

Thinking of this, Su Lianyue's smile grew even more smug.

Just then, one of the guards on guard suddenly pointed to the sky outside the temple and exclaimed, "What's that?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked in the direction he was pointing.

Su Lianyue also got up in confusion and walked to the entrance of the dilapidated temple to look outside.

In the distant sky, a dazzling red streak of light ripped through the night, hurtling towards Black Wind Mountain. Wherever the red light passed, the stars and moon dimmed, and the night sky seemed to have been ripped open with a scarlet wound, with fragments of light falling like blood rain before dissipating before hitting the ground.

Seeing this astonishing phenomenon, Su Lianyue was first stunned, then a wildly joyful smile appeared on her face.

—It's Minister Fei Wu! She's here!

Meanwhile, Chu Lu and Qin Su also noticed the striking red streak of light on the horizon.

That undisguised aura was incredibly flamboyant and arrogant.

"Is that Fei Wu?" Chu Lu asked inexplicably calmly.

"Hmm." Qin Su nodded heavily. "In this world without magic, only the female lead can cause such a commotion. And among all the female leads, only she dares to come straight for you so openly."

Just as turmoil was brewing at Black Wind Mountain, in another world, at the headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Sect, a completely different scene unfolded.

In the empty and desolate hall, Hua Honglian looked at Shen Miaomiao at the hall entrance, her heart filled with doubt and vigilance.

"I'm very satisfied that you were able to remain clear-headed amidst the longing to be loved, and instead of choosing either side, you resolved the problem in a more rational way." Shen Miaomiao walked over slowly, her tone full of approval.

Hua Honglian felt increasingly uneasy. The Heavenly Demon Sect's headquarters was heavily guarded and had numerous mechanisms. It was impossible for an ordinary outsider to enter her place so easily.

Moreover, considering that she sounded like an examiner just now, and that she was the one who changed her mind back then, Hua Honglian sensed a conspiracy.

"Who exactly are you?" Hua Honglian asked seriously. She secretly opened the chat group, intending to tell everyone about this.

However, as soon as the interface opened, a pop-up window appeared saying that the chat group was temporarily unavailable.

Hua Honglian was shocked.

"Don't be nervous." Shen Miaomiao's voice came from ahead.

Hua Honglian looked up and saw Shen Miaomiao say with a gentle smile, "I'm not a bad person, you don't need to rush to inform others. I'm on your side."

She paused, looked at Hua Honglian's confused eyes, and slowly uttered a shocking statement.

"I was the chat group owner two years ago."
