Back then, Poison Scorpion had led Lone Eagle, Li Kuanghu, Leng She, Wei Dai 'er, and the eight generals to the Broken Mountain Range.
They were filled with lofty sentiments and lofty aspirations. They all felt that with the strength of their group, they could carve out a piece of heaven and earth here.
After all, they had all come from the northwest, and their horizons were not wide enough. They all thought that their newly increased strength was already quite good.
However, when they came to the Broken Mountain Range, they realized that they were frogs at the bottom of a well. The outside world was much wider than they had imagined, and there were as many powerful mercenaries as there were hairs on an ox. Martial artists like them were only the lowest level of mercenaries, and only Heavenly Venerable Poison Scorpion's strength could barely make it.
Everyone's morale had suffered a great blow, so they did not immediately join the mercenary teams. Instead, they trained in the mountain range as rogue cultivators, and at the same time, they made use of the fastest time to increase their strength.
At that time, Poison Scorpion had the strength of a mid-level Heavenly Venerable, and could be considered an expert. He had always been scheming and scheming.
He had constantly recruited mercenaries who cultivated alone or were not proud of themselves, and gathered them together. He first formed a small mercenary team and began his career as a mercenary.
He had gathered these people together for the sake of benefits, but now that a disaster had befallen them, they had all flown away. There were only about twenty people who truly followed him, and there were less than five Heavenly Venerables. The rest were at the Earth Emperor Realm.
These people had more or less received favors from Poison Scorpion over the past few years, and they all had a sense of loyalty. Now that they had encountered a life and death crisis, it was commendable that they did not abandon him.
Poison Scorpion saw all of this, and he secretly said in his heart, "Brothers, you will not regret following me today!"
When Poison Scorpion thought of his famous young master, his heart became even more resolute.
No matter how difficult the future was, as long as they endured it and waited for the moment they returned to the young master, who would dare to bully them like this?
Suddenly, several strong auras came from the sky.
Poison Scorpion was shocked. He frowned and said, "It should be the Wind Lion Mercenary Group. Lone Eagle, Kuang Hu, Eight Generals, protect Leng She and Dai 'er and immediately head to Wind Cloud City to find the young master. The rest of you stay with me to face the enemy!"
Poison Scorpion had made the prompt decision to protect Ling Xiao's loyal subordinates. As for the brothers he had recruited, they could only accompany him through this calamity.
"No, it's enough for the Eight Generals to escort Leng She and Wei Dai 'er to find Young Master. Mad Tiger and I will stay behind to lend you a hand!" Lone Eagle replied.
Li Kuanghu also replied firmly, "That's right, Boss Du, this matter is not negotiable, the eight generals will be enough to escort them!
Even if we die in battle, young master will avenge us! "
The eight generals also said that they wanted to stay and fight.
Poison Scorpion was enraged. "Dai 'er is Young Master's woman. If anything happens to her, how can we be worthy of Young Master's care? All of you, leave!"
After saying that, he couldn't be bothered with them anymore. He rode on his scorpion and flew into the air. At the same time, he waved his hand and countless strange auras spread in the air.
Back then, Poison Scorpion was known as the Poison Emperor in the northwest, and his skills in using poison were not undeserved.
After looking at each other, the eight generals could only grit their teeth and protect Leng She and Wei Dai 'er as they left.
They were all riding on rank six Blood Wind Eagles, and their speed was relatively fast.
Just as they left, Rong Fubei and a dozen other Heavenly Venerables had already arrived.
"Run, why are you bastards not running anymore? How dare you kill my son, I will make sure you die a horrible death!" Rong Fubei shouted from afar.
The Wind Lion he was riding was like a gust of wind, and it instantly appeared in front of Poison Scorpion and the others. The mace was smashed towards Poison Scorpion.
Poison Scorpion was already prepared, and a long sword appeared in his hand as he faced Rong Fubei.
Clang!
The weapons clashed, and Poison Scorpion was obviously not Rong Fubei's match. He was pushed back tens of meters.
At this moment, the experts from the Wind Lion Mercenary Group who followed Rong Fubei also charged over.
"Kill for me!" Poison Scorpion regrouped and shouted loudly. His World Energy began to deduce it.
In an instant, countless poisonous scorpions appeared densely, and each of them carried a terrifying poison that made one's scalp go numb.
At the same time, the strength of the few Heavenly Venerables who followed Poison Scorpion also began to rise, and they faced Rong Fubei's people.
Lone Eagle and Li Kuanghu were only peak Earthly Emperors, and they could not participate in the battle. However, they could let their rank six spirit beasts participate.
After all, the battle strength of the Blood Wind Eagle and the Red Tornado Cloud Tiger was a great help to Poison Scorpion and the others!
In the beginning, Poison Scorpion and the others were in a disadvantageous situation.
However, not long after, the people brought by Rong Fubei began to feel dizzy. Fortunately, they were strong enough to support themselves in the battle.
Rong Fubei also noticed that something was wrong. His expression changed slightly, and he shouted, "Damn it, they actually used poison. What a good Poison Lord, do you think that I can't deal with you just like that?
You underestimate me, Rong Fubei! "
After saying that, he withdrew his lower abdomen, and a strong force began to condense. His face became a little bloated.
Roar!
Suddenly, he opened his mouth, and a sound wave that resembled a lion's roar rushed out from his mouth.
The powerful sound wave attack caused heaven and earth to tremble slightly, and Poison Scorpion and the others were shaken to the point that their eardrums hurt.
"Die!" Rong Fubei took the opportunity to raise his mace and ruthlessly smash it at Poison Scorpion.
By the time Poison Scorpion came to his senses, the mace had already greeted him.
Bang!
Poison Scorpion's waist was smashed by Rong Fubei, and his body fell to the ground like a cannonball.
Lone Eagle instantly sped up and rushed to catch Poison Scorpion.
Unfortunately, Rong Fubei's attack was not something that an ordinary person could withstand. The moment Lone Eagle caught Poison Scorpion, he only felt a terrifying force of qi, and the impact made him lose feeling in his hands.
In an instant, both he and Poison Scorpion were sent flying.
Li Kuanghu quickly rushed over, and he had already prepared elixirs in his hands.
All these years, they had worked closely together, and they already knew what to do next.
"Hmph, since you are so loyal, then die!" Rong Fubei roared in the sky. He was prepared to kill Poison Scorpion, Lone Eagle, and Li Kuanghu again, but he felt that his body was starting to weaken.
Although he was strong, he was in too much of a rush just now, and he forgot that the surrounding air had already been poisoned by Poison Scorpion.
In terms of strength, Poison Scorpion was not as strong as Rong Fubei, but in terms of using poison, he was confident that even if the Mystic Thearch was poisoned by him, it would be difficult for him to force it out in a short period of time.
Rong Fubei and the others were also experienced mercenaries who had been through life and death for many years. They were always prepared with all kinds of spirit elixirs, and they naturally had plenty of antidotes.
As their movements became sluggish, Poison Scorpion endured his injuries and shouted to his brothers, "Hurry up!"
His poison would not be able to stop Rong Fubei for long, and their side had obviously lost the upper hand. It was not a good idea to fight them head-on, and they could only hope to escape to Broken Sword City as soon as possible.
Once they reached there, private fights were not allowed. Even the Wind Lion Mercenaries did not dare to act rashly.
Poison Scorpion and the others tried their best to escape, but Rong Fubei and the others could only worry. They had no choice but to use the antidote to force the poison out of their bodies. Otherwise, if the poison spread to their organs, they would not have it easy either.
"Damn it, if I let you escape, I will write my name upside down!"
Rong Fubei recovered the fastest, and he could not be bothered to wait for his men. He took the lead and chased after Poison Scorpion and the others.
The others quickly followed after him.
Poison Scorpion and the others ran in a different direction from the Eight Generals.
They were not stupid enough to lead Rong Fubei and the others there.
The two groups chased after each other. Rong Fubei's Wind Lion was a tier-six upper-tier and had the wind attribute. It was very fast, and it did not take long to catch up with Poison Scorpion and the others.
Rong Fubei did not say anything as he deduced the power of his world and used it to envelop Poison Scorpion and the others.
Poison Scorpion had been injured before, and although he had taken the elixir, his recovery speed was not as fast. He could only grit his teeth and fight.
For a moment, the sounds of intense battle rang out in the periphery of the Thousand Broken Mountain Range.
Following that, Rong Fubei's men also caught up. Poison Scorpion, Lone Eagle, Li Kuanghu, and the others were already at the edge of danger, and they could be killed at any time.
Poison Scorpion seemed to realize that his side no longer had any advantage. He hesitated for a moment, as if he had made up his mind.
Finally, he shouted, "All of you retreat, I will fight them to the death!"
Poison Scorpion restrained Rong Fubei and increased the power of his world, attempting to block Rong Fubei's companions as well.
His face contorted as he roared, "Thousand Poison Disintegration!"
All of a sudden, with Poison Scorpion as the center, clouds of stinking poison gas began to spread out, and Poison Scorpion himself turned into a living poisonous man. His entire body became covered with poisonous boils, and the stench was overwhelming!
He had been refining poison for many years, and he was already a poisonous person. Now, in order to stop Rong Fubei and the others, he was willing to disintegrate his poison techniques. Even if he did not die after this move, he would become a cripple!
Rong Fubei and the others' expressions changed, and they all retreated at the same time.
However, Poison Scorpion's poison spread even faster. Two low-level Heavenly Venerables could not retreat in time, and they were instantly corroded by this terrifying poison, turning into a pool of blood.
"Boss Poison!" Lone Eagle and Li Kuanghu cried out in sorrow.
The rest of Poison Scorpion's followers also revealed extremely moved expressions.
They did not expect Poison Scorpion to be willing to sacrifice himself to stop Rong Fubei and the others.
"Hurry up and go!
You must tell Young Master and ask him to avenge me! "Poison Scorpion turned around and ordered Lone Eagle and Li Kuanghu.
At this moment, the eight generals who were protecting Leng She and Wei Dai 'er returned together, and there were more than ten people following behind them.
