Chapter 449 A Pursuer

Yun Zirou sized Han Xuefei up, then turned to Lu Yu and asked, “Is she your friend?”

Lu Yu paused, nodded, and replied, “We’re friends.”

Even though they hadn’t known each other for long, Lu Yu still treated Han Xuefei as a friend.

It was just that when the two of them were enemies at the beginning, their attitudes weren’t too good toward each other.

“Since she’s your friend, I won’t say anything. You’re the captain, so you’d better make the decision.”

They all knew there must be treasures in the holy temple ruins, and those who knew about them would want a share.

At first, Yun Zirou thought Han Xuefei was here to take advantage of Lu Yu but kept silent after finding out she was Lu Yu’s friend.

Lu Yu looked at Xu Yuan and Wang Meng and asked, “What do you guys think? Adding an esper to our team doesn’t seem like a bad idea. ”

“Of course,” Xu Yuan agreed immediately. “It’ll be much easier if we have a strong esper on our team!”

“Why do you say so?”

“First of all, if we need a temporary resting spot, espers can build a wooden house quickly!”

“If we were to do it manually, it would take a lot of time.”

“Plus, none of us can fly. If there’s an esper, then we can just use her telekinesis to assist us in flying.”

“All in all, whether it’s in battle or support, an esper will be of great help to us.”

Lu Yu nodded in agreement. “That makes sense.”

He looked at Han Xuefei and smiled, “Then come with me. Join my team.”

Han Xuefei walked over with an excited smile. With a wave of her hand, her red dress with straps changed into a tight leather combat suit.

“I’m ready. We can leave at any time!”

Lu Yu looked behind him and introduced his friend. “This is Wang Meng, a new student in the same batch as us. This is Xu Yuan, a doctor in the military. He can be our healer and support us with his poison.”

“Then, Yun Zirou…”

Lu Yu briefly introduced the four of them. Han Xuefei smiled and greeted them, “Hello, I’m Han Xuefei.”

“I know you! You’re the daughter of the Han group in Ixdale. What a surprise to see you here.” Yun Zirou exclaimed.

Su Qing, who was at the side, asked in confusion, “Is the Han group powerful?”

“Of course, they are much richer than my Yun family!”

“Alright, since we got to know each other, let’s head out. Once we’re outside, it’ll be just us helping each other out.”

The group of six arrived at the front gate and waited for the massive iron gate to rise.

While waiting for the gate to open, Jiang Ning walked over quickly with two other team members. “Captain, you must be careful when you go out. If there’s any danger, remember to escape as soon as possible and return with the teleportation scrolls.”

She reminded him nervously that one of her missions before coming here was to ensure Lu Yu’s safety. Lu Yu’s survival was more important than anything else.

Lu Yu nodded. “I know you’re saying this for my own good. I’ll be careful.”

With that, the gate opened completely, and the six of them walked out as they moved forward according to their map.

They entered a dense forest not far ahead. The ground in the woods was relatively flat, but the thick trees made it difficult for them to see their path forward.

Lu Yu took the lead to move through the trees, continuing ahead.

As he walked, he took out a compass. As long as he kept moving in the direction of the holy temple, he would soon reach his destination.

They could arrive in less than an hour if they were fast enough. Their speed was different from that of ordinary people, as the speed at which they shuttled through the jungle was similar to an average person’s running at high speed.

Moreover, the physical stamina of cultivators like them was totally different compared to ordinary people.

Lu Yu took the lead and headed off quickly, looking at the map as he walked.

“Everyone, pay attention to your surroundings. If there are any attacks from ferocious beasts, prepare for battle as soon as possible.”

“Brother, don’t worry. The beasts in this area shouldn’t be too strong.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly, agreeing with Wang Meng’s words. All regions had set a strength limit for those who could enter the ancient ruins. As long as one was gold-ranked, the person could enter.

This, in turn, meant that the beasts in the wilderness should not be much stronger than those of gold rank. They only needed to pay a little attention, as their enemies in the holy temple were the ones they needed to be careful about.

Following the map, Lu Yu soon arrived in front of a small, continuously flowing stream.

Lu Yu stood in front of the stream and pointed forward. “It’s just not far ahead, and we will reach the holy temple.”

“It’s great that we have a map. If we were to explore this place by ourselves, who knows how long it would take us to find the temple?”

Xu Yuan sighed and commented.

“Of course,” Lu Yu continued. “Especially in this dense forest, it’s even more difficult to find the place.”

At that moment, a black shadow suddenly sprung from the side toward Lu Yu and his team!

The ground shook slightly due to the enormous black shadow jumping up.

“There’s a beast attacking!” Yun Zirou shouted.

Wang Meng was the first to react. He immediately stood before them and shot out the silver-white spear in his hand!

Swoosh!

An afterimage flashed, and the sharp spear instantly pierced through the black shadow.

Yun Zirou placed her hands on her chest, opened her fingers, and conjured a fireball. She then shot it at the wild boar.

With a loud bang, the fireball exploded on the dying wild boar, burning its body.

Very quickly, the wild boar died, and the smell of roasted meat filled the air.

“The ferocious beasts in the ancient ruins are nothing more than this, huh.”

Wang Meng walked over and pulled out his spear.

Blood sprang out like a fountain. He had punctured the boar’s neck, striking its carotid artery!

The silver-white spear was covered with a thick layer of blood, and Wang Meng casually swung it a few times, holding it back in his hand.

“I’m capable of dealing with the enemies on this level. Let’s continue moving forward, while I’ll be everyone’s bodyguard!” Wang Meng declared confidently.

“Let’s keep going.” Lu Yu nodded slightly.

With that, he led the way through the river stream and continued forward, with the other five following closely behind.

The river stream soon returned to its calm state.

Not long after, there was a rustling sound in the grass, and a wolfhound came out. It came to the corpse of the wild boar, lowered its head, and carefully sniffed the boar’s corpse.

A figure walked out of the grass after that. He realized what had happened when he saw the boar’s corpse on the ground, with blood all over it.

He squatted next to the body and checked the wound, finding that it was a round hole.

He stepped over the stream and came to the opposite side, and the wolfhound that followed him sniffed the ground.

He squatted down again and saw the blood droplets splattered on the ground.

“Someone was here…”
