It seemed that this freak was indeed an unsolvable freak. This forest should be its enchantment!
The enchantment of an unsolvable freak had its own rules. If the freak set this forest as endless, then this forest would really be endless. One would never be able to walk out of it by normal means!
After taking a break at noon, everyone continued on their journey.
Xu Yan was still following behind the team, staring at the forest in front of him. His eyes were faintly glowing with a golden glow.
Based on the experience of the past few days, these traveling merchants should have their memories erased by the freak somewhere. Then, they would be sent back to the dilapidated temple.
However, Xu Yan was following them this time. If the freak attacked again, it would be completely exposed to Xu Yan.
Time gradually passed. The sun was also in the west. It seemed that it would set soon.
Xu Yan frowned. This freak was really difficult to deal with!
For the entire afternoon, Xu Yan did not sense anything unusual. His eyes, which were filled with spiritual vigor, did not see anything either.
Could it be that the freak was not going to let them return to the dilapidated temple because Xu Yan had followed them out?
…
The sky had completely darkened.
However, there were still seven people in front of Xu Yan. None of them were missing.
Was this freak trying to imitate yesterday and capture a person in a moment of rain?
Xu Yan sneered in his heart. If that was the case, just wait for me to find you!
Whoosh …
It started to rain. The few people in front began to run, trying to find a place to take shelter from the rain.
In order to lure the freak out, Xu Yan did not remind them to be careful of the freak. He allowed them to run forward.
Xu Yan followed behind the team at a moderate pace. His golden eyes were fixed on the seven people in front of him. He wanted to see if this freak dared to come!
In the heavy rain, the formation of the seven people in front became more and more scattered. However, none of them disappeared.
Xu Yan could feel the spiritual vigor he had left in them.
How patient!
Let's see how long you can endure. Xu Yan sneered.
"There's a fire in front. There should be a place to take shelter from the rain. Follow me!"
The leader at the front seemed to have discovered something and shouted to the back.
Xu Yan raised his head and looked ahead. Suddenly, he was stunned. A familiar dilapidated temple appeared in his field of vision. There was even a familiar bonfire burning inside!
While Xu Yan was in a daze, the freak finally made its move!
Xu Yan could only feel that the Spiritual Opportunity that he had used as a marker was rapidly leaving. Furthermore, it seemed to be being obliterated by a strange force!
However, it was still a Worldly Immortal level Spiritium. How could it be destroyed so easily?
Xu Yan looked in the direction where the Spiritual Tablet was moving and could not help but reveal a ferocious expression. "I've finally caught it!"
Xu Yan bent his legs and stomped on the ground, creating a huge crater!
With the help of this rebounding force, Xu Yan's figure shot towards the direction of the Spiritual Opportunity like a cannonball!
"Let's see how you escape this time!"
In the blink of an eye, Xu Yan arrived at the location of the Spiritual Opportunity. He landed on the ground and blasted out a large crater!
Without hesitation, Xu Yan punched the air in front of him!
"Huala …"
The enchantment in front of him was shattered like glass by Xu Yan's punch, revealing the freak behind him and the traveling merchant who had just been captured.
At the same time, Xu Yan reached out with his other hand and snatched the traveling merchant from the freak's hand.
Casually throwing the traveling merchant to the side, Xu Yan carefully looked at the freak that had wasted so much of his time.
This freak was humanoid. It had no hair and its body was completely black. It was similar to Xiao Hei in Conan.
"Why aren't you running anymore?"
Xu Yan looked at the freak and sneered.
It was unknown whether the freak could not speak or was unwilling to communicate with Xu Yan. It roared at Xu Yan and rushed over.
"How dare you attack a strong person like me. Should I say that you are brave or stupid?"
Xu Yan roared. Golden Spiritual Opportunity erupted and the entire sky was dyed golden.
Engulfed in the surging Spiritual Opportunity, Xu Yan appeared in front of the freak in an instant. He grabbed the freak's head with his big hand and rushed back with it.
All the trees on the way were knocked down by the violent force. They could not stop Xu Yan at all. In the end, they only stopped when they hit a small hill.
The freak's head was pressed into the hill by Xu Yan. Only two eyes could be seen through the gaps between his fingers.
"Do you know that I hate it when people make fun of me?"
Looking at the freak that was still struggling in his hand, Xu Yan's smile gradually became ferocious.
"How dare you still struggle!"
Xu Yan pulled the freak out of the crack in the hill and slammed it on the ground angrily.
Xu Yan only stopped when the freak was on its last breath.
Looking at the broken freak in his hand, Xu Yan's anger subsided a lot.
"Don't be afraid. I'll set you free now."
He grabbed the freak's head and squeezed it hard. The freak's head was crushed.
As the freak died, the enchantment surrounding the forest gradually disappeared, revealing the starry sky.
Xu Yan retracted the surging spiritual vigor in his body and took a deep breath.
"It's finally over!
I almost screwed up this time. It seems that I have to be more careful next time. "
Taking the traveling merchant that he had casually thrown aside, Xu Yan was ready to go back and meet up with the remaining traveling merchants.
…
Hearing that the fierce battle in the forest had stopped, the traveling merchants hiding in the dilapidated temple could not help but quiet down. They looked expectantly at the gate of the dilapidated temple, praying that Xu Yan was the winner.
Clap, clap, clap …
A series of footsteps gradually came from afar. Everyone's faces gradually showed joy.
Sure enough, Xu Yan's figure appeared in front of the temple gate, holding the captured companion in his hand.
Everyone immediately cheered and rushed to Xu Yan. They asked expectantly, "Little brother Xu Yan, did you win?"
"Of course I won. We can leave now!" Xu Yan said with a smile.
After receiving Xu Yan's affirmation, everyone immediately carried their luggage and left with Xu Yan excitedly, regardless of the tiredness from a day's journey.
They rushed from the small forest to Small Mountain Town in one breath. When they saw the other people in Small Mountain Town, they were relieved.
After helping them find an inn to settle down, Xu Yan turned and walked back to the Xu family.
He had been trapped in the small forest for so long. He did not know what had happened to the Xu family.
Because the gate of the Xu family was not open at night, Xu Yan flew directly to his house from the air and looked at the small house next to his house. The light was still on in the house.
Feeling that Xiao He's breath was still in the house, Xu Yan was relieved. It seemed that what he was worried about did not happen.
Originally, Xu Yan thought that since he had not come back for such a long time, the second elder and the others might think that he was dead and then vent their anger on Xiao He.
Now it seemed that they were quite sensible. It was not in vain that he kept them alive.
Landing in front of Xiao He's house from the air, Xu Yan reached out and knocked on the door. He looked at Xiao He who opened the door with a face full of surprise.
