On the other side, the team leader had just stepped out of the forest when he heard the roars of mutated beasts coming from inside.
At the same time, he heard the miserable cries of his companions.
“A bunch of idiots.”
The team leader wasn’t moved at all.
If a few of his teammates died, so be it. At the very most, he could just get another batch.
With his strength, it would be very easy for him to mingle in the outer area, be it recruiting new members or joining other teams.
Right now, he only needed to guard this exit and wait quietly until the mutated beasts kills all the people alive in the forest.
Even if Fang Yuan could escape from the mutated beast, he would definitely be heavily injured.
At that time, no matter how strange his methods were, or whether he had hidden any trump cards, he could easily take him down.
“This kid seems to be a personal disciple of someone from the Gu Immortal Sect, I cannot let him return alive.”
The leader had only glanced at him, and he did not see what was written on the identity token.
The Gu Immortal Sect was a famous fighting sect, so he had naturally heard of it.
He also knew the consequences of making enemies with a core disciple of the Gu Immortal Sect.
But since they had already gone all out, there was no turning back.
Only by killing Fang Yuan would no one know that he was the one who did it.
The commotion in the forest suddenly became much quieter.
The howling of the mutated beasts could no longer be heard clearly.
The leader was overjoyed: “He died so quickly? It seems I have overestimated him, not all of the Gu Immortal Sect’s direct disciples are strong.”
Right at this moment, a pair of fierce eyes suddenly appeared on the edge of the forest.
Immediately after, a second pair appeared!
And a third pair!
They looked at the leader with bloodthirsty eyes.
They were mutated beasts!
The mutated beasts had chased after him?
The leader was flustered by their gaze and slowly retreated. At the same time, he also had some doubts.
How could the mutated beasts be so far away from their territory?
But the truth did not allow him to question it.
A sharp wolf howl rang out, like a marching order, and countless black shadows scuttled out of the forest.
It was the dark shadow wolf pack, the top hunters at the outer parts of the mystic realm!
Even Gu worms of the same level would have to give way when facing them!
Even though they did not control elemental powers and were not among the demonic beasts, their sharp claws and teeth could easily break through the defense of a third layer Enlightenment Realm Gu master.
“Damn it!”
He cursed, hurriedly taking out a bunch of consumable type Gu worms from his storage ring, throwing them out in an attempt to block the wolf group’s attack.
Unfortunately, these Gu worms were of low quality, and the wolf pack swarmed forward and could eat a worm in a single bite. In just a few seconds, they were all eaten up, showing no effect at all.
A person’s running speed naturally could not compare to a wolf’s, especially in such a dark environment like the Scarlet Flame Mystic Realm.
This leader did not run far before he was surrounded by the wolf pack.
He drew out his long sword and released all his Gu worms to confront the wolf pack.
One of the dark shadow wolves that looked like the leader slowly moved forward and whimpered, causing the twenty wolves to shake and charge forward without giving him any chance.
The leader opened his eyes wide and started to control his Gu worms to deal with the wolves.
But two fists could not fight against four paws, not to mention that he was facing dozens of strong dark shadow wolves.
A 360 degree defense still had flaws.
The dark shadow wolves accurately caught his mistake, opening their bloody mouths and biting down on his arm.
With a light bite, the huge force directly bit off the leader’s entire arm.
“Ah!”
The leader roared and retaliated in anger.
But the right hand holding the sword had already been eaten by the wolves, and more than half of his Gu worms had been consumed.
He had already lost the ability to resist.
The wolves continued to attack relentlessly.
In just a few seconds, the leader’s two legs were bitten into a bloody mess, and not even his bones were left.
Blood splattered all over the ground.
There were even some broken internal organs that fell out from the gap between his pelvis, emitting a fishy smell.
Fortunately, Gu masters had tenacious vitality.
Even if they lost their limbs, as long as they were treated in time, they could still keep their lives.
But at this moment, it was undoubtedly a form of torture.
Just as he thought he was about to die by the wolves’ mouths, the wolf king whimpered, stopping the dark shadow wolves from attacking.
Following that, the leader saw the wolves moving to the sides, and a person he thought was already dead actually walked over from afar.
Fang Yuan!
That Gu Immortal Sect disciple!
The leader’s eyes were wide open, his face was filled with unwillingness, he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but his aura was already on the verge of dying. He only made a ‘eh’ sound.
“It’s me.”
Fang Yuan had a smile on his face. He looked at the leader’s body that only had a head and a torso left, and he did not show any mercy.
The leader’s eyes that were losing their luster were filled with confusion.
How did Fang Yuan do it?
He could actually control the wolf pack?
Fang Yuan asked coldly, “Did Zhang Wenbin send you here? Tell me, I can let you die a quick death.”
The leader was stunned.
Zhang Wenbin?
Who was that?
Fang Yuan saw the confusion in his eyes.
A person’s subconscious gaze would not lie.
He immediately waved his hand and ordered the dark shadow wolf controlled by the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu to end the other party’s life.
“It seems that Zhang Wenbin does not know that I have come to the Scarlet Flame Mystic Realm.” Fang Yuan shook his head.
He originally thought that this person might have been sent by Zhang Wenbin to assassinate him.
Looking at the current situation, the possibility was not high.
It was likely that this leader was just a passerby who wanted money.
If that was the case, this meant that he would not have to worry about others following him and waiting for an opportunity to assassinate him while he explored the mystic realm.
But it was hard to say.
Zhang Wenbin would not let him increase his strength so easily.
It was hard to say. Perhaps the people he sent had not arrived yet.
“In short, I have to be more careful and maintain sufficient spirit essence to deal with any accidents.”
Fang Yuan left the place and retrieved the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu. He then held the True Sight Gu in his hand and began to inspect the place with dense fire element.
“Go north?”
That was the direction to the depths of the mystic realm. Be it Gu worms or mutated beasts, or even the Gu masters passing by, they were much stronger than those in the outer regions.
Fang Yuan frowned and thought for a while.
There was no time in this world that was not risky.
It’s all or nothing!
