Wild Dogs

"Hahaha, this is truly a stroke of luck!"

Xue Ming was overjoyed, his expression filled with barely suppressed excitement.

But as soon as he turned to look at the other two, before he could even speak, his expression suddenly darkened.

"Who's there?"

With a sharp rebuke from Xue Ming, Xuan Yang immediately stepped forward.

With a gentle wave of his hands, a blood-red palm print was instantly unleashed, slamming down directly towards the spot where the man was hiding.

"I didn't expect that I couldn't keep it from everyone after all."

The person who had left in a hurry earlier slowly revealed himself from mid-air.

It turns out that he had pretended to leave, but in reality he had been secretly lurking nearby all along.

The plan was to sneak in and take advantage of the situation after everyone broke the barrier.

In the end, the meticulous Xue Ming still managed to discover their whereabouts.

"You treacherous little man, do you really think we can't see through your intentions?"

Xue Ming spoke in a cold voice, then looked at Xue Ji and Xuan Yang beside him.

Without saying a word, the three exchanged a glance and immediately charged towards the man in perfect unison.

"Why are you all being so aggressive?"

The man was startled and hurriedly dodged and retreated.

But the current situation has already exceeded his expectations.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Ming appeared beside him.

Xue Ming unleashed a powerful punch straight down.

"Who do you think you are, daring to try and outsmart us?"

A heavy fist came crashing down, striking the man squarely in front of him.

That person never expected Xue Ming's speed to be so swift.

In a panic, he tried to turn and escape, but Xuan Yang had already blocked his escape route.

Xuan Yang gave a cold shout, and his body suddenly twisted and transformed, shrinking into the shape of a fetus.

Immediately afterwards, a pair of long, eerie arms suddenly reached out and grabbed at the person.

At the same moment, Xuan Yang let out a sharp, piercing screech, like the mournful cry of a night owl in the dead of night.

The man felt a sudden jolt in his mind, his consciousness instantly became hazy and confused, and he lost all strength to resist.

Yang Fan hurriedly covered his ears, his body went limp and he almost collapsed to the ground.

This cry contained an extremely powerful spiritual attack.

Even though it wasn't intentionally targeted at him, Yang Fan was still shaken and felt extremely uncomfortable.

Fortunately, his spiritual cultivation had already reached the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage, and he was only one step away from breaking through to the Core Formation stage, so he was able to barely withstand the impact.

Taking advantage of the man's inability to resist, Xue Ji quickly stepped forward and delivered the fatal blow, tearing out the man's heart with his bare hands.

Xuan Yang followed closely behind, pulled out the man's golden core, opened his mouth and swallowed it directly into his stomach, chewing it carefully.

Seeing such a cruel scene, Xue Ji's expression shifted slightly, but he refused to back down and swallowed the heart as well.

And so, one of them swallowed the golden pill, and the other swallowed the heart, instantly dividing up the spiritual power of the person's body.

Xue Ming, standing to the side, watched this scene unfold with a faint smile, neither stepping forward to stop it nor uttering a single word.

Seeing this, Yang Fan quietly lowered his head, clenched his fists tightly, and his palms were already covered in cold sweat.

At that moment, he clearly witnessed the ruthlessness and cruelty of those people.

Everyone says that Xue Ji is honest, but that's only in comparison to Xue Ming and Xuan Yang, who are both cunning and shrewd.

When it really comes down to it, Xue Ji is just as ruthless and merciless, showing no mercy whatsoever.

After thinking it over carefully, Yang Fan gradually understood the reasoning behind it.

In a place like the Blood Fiend Sect, where would you find truly kind-hearted people?

Even he himself often did cruel things like skinning animals.

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm the turmoil in his heart, then slowly raised his head, pretending to look calmly at Xue Ming.

After dealing with this person, Xue Ming hung the remaining corpse in a conspicuous place nearby.

He then coldly surveyed his surroundings.

"I want to see who else is so foolish as to dare to sneak up here and spy on us."

After speaking, Xue Ming raised his hand, signaling everyone to follow him.

"Alright, everyone come over here quickly."

"Let's open this door completely and go inside to find the treasures."

As Xue Ming spoke, he rubbed his hands together excitedly.

The other two also showed expressions of joy.

However, Yang Fan could tell that Xue Ji was becoming increasingly wary of Xue Ming and Xuan Yang.

Xue Ji was not a fool; he knew that he had to be careful in everything he did.

At this moment, Xue Ming beckoned Yang Fan to come to him.

"Master."

Yang Fan quickly and respectfully spoke.

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming smiled gently and patted Yang Fan on the shoulder.

"My good disciple, I have an important task for you to do in a little while."

"You must obediently follow my instructions when the time comes."

Xue Ming stared intently at Yang Fan.

"If you do as I say, I will reward you handsomely and will not treat you unfairly in the slightest."

"But if you dare to go against my wishes, don't blame me for disregarding our master-disciple relationship."

As he spoke, he pressed his palm firmly on Yang Fan's shoulder.

Do you understand what I mean?

"Yes, Master, rest assured, I understand everything and will certainly follow your instructions."

Yang Fan trembled slightly and quickly and respectfully agreed.

Xue Ming nodded and smiled in satisfaction.

"very good."

"As long as you work for me steadily, I will naturally not treat you unfairly."

He then turned to look at the other two.

"Come on, let's push open the door together and go inside to find out what's going on."

"I wonder what treasure will be hidden in the depths."

Xue Ming stepped forward, walked to the bronze gate, and slowly pushed it forward with force.

A soft "creak" was heard.

The heavy bronze gate slowly opened inwards, and the moment it opened, an exceptionally pure and rich spiritual energy rushed out.

It is conceivable that the area inside the gate must have accumulated a very strong spiritual energy over the years.

Just a gentle inhale made Yang Fan feel refreshed and relaxed.

It must be said that cultivating in such a rich spiritual environment can indeed make one feel relaxed and comfortable, and one's cultivation can be twice as effective with half the effort.

Xue Ming took a deep breath of spiritual energy and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"This is a really nice place."

"The spiritual energy here is indeed incredibly abundant."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Yang Fan and gave him a wink.

Yang Fan dared not delay in the slightest and quickly stepped forward, obediently following behind Xue Ming.

Immediately afterward, Xue Ji also stepped forward, with Lady Lianhua silently following behind him.

Only Xuan Yang stood at the very back, looking hesitantly at the two people in front of him.

"Let's go."

Xue Ming raised his hand in a gesture and took the lead in stepping into the bronze gate.

Xueji and Xuanyang followed closely behind and entered together.
