The two chatted without saying a word, and after moving forward again for a while, several thunder and lightning flashed in the sky, and it started to rain.

Ye Yuxi and Qing'er put on the hats and coir raincoats they had prepared for, and continued on their way.

"Stop!" Ye Yuxi raised her hand and stopped suddenly.

Qing'er, who was following behind, stopped, and whispered to Ye Yuxi who was in front: "Miss, what's the matter?"

shhh

Ye Yuxi made a silent movement, and sent a voice transmission to Qing'er in her heart: "Be careful, two waves of people passed by here just now."

Qing'er walked forward and looked at the footprints in front of him. There were some messy footprints on the ground, but how did the lady judge that there were two groups of people?

Qing'er asked the lady in her heart: "Miss, there are only a bunch of footprints on the ground, how can you tell that there are two groups of them?"

Ye Yuxi held her short knife Soul Eater in her hand, leaned over and picked up a stalk of grass from the ground, and brought it to Qing'er.

"Several plants of grass here have been chopped off by someone with a single knife. It should be left by someone in the front team. Some footprints on the ground are relatively incomplete, and some are relatively new, which proves that there are spirit beasts such as snakes coming from here. After passing by, the previous footprints were destroyed, if it was the same group of people, then all the footprints should be incomplete."

Ye Yuxi finished explaining to Qing'er, took out two black gauzes from the interspatial ring, and handed one of them to Qing'er, "Cover your face, hold your weapon, and be careful."

Qing'er nodded, and followed Ye Yuxi to continue walking forward, but this time, the two walked a little faster.

Ye Yuxi originally thought it was a coincidence, but after turning over a mountain, despite the heavy rain, she could still vaguely see footprints on the ground, which made Ye Yuxi pay attention.

Judging from the direction of the opponent's footprints, the purpose of the two groups of people in front is obvious, the Serpentine Mountains.

The Tianshan Mountains stretch for tens of thousands of miles, and the range is extremely wide. It even spreads in the depths of the mountains. There are spirit beasts that surpass the ninth rank of the spirit beasts. After taking a name, the Serpentine Mountains are one of them.

"stop!"

Ye Yuxi raised her hand again, and the two of them stopped.

Hiss - hiss -

Ye Yuxi didn't use Ye Yuxi to explain the situation this time. Qing'er had already seen the scene ahead. Not far ahead, two big white snakes were dragging a dead body to the side of the grass. Looking at the clothes on the dead body, it was someone A mercenary group of mercenaries.

"Let's go." Ye Yuxi transmitted a voice to Qing'er in her heart, and when they moved forward again, the speed of the two slowed down a bit.

After turning over another mountain, the rain was much lighter.

There was the sound of weapons clashing in the woods ahead.

"Miss, it seems to be the young master in the inn." Qing'er and Ye Yuxi jumped to the canopy of the tree, looking down at the battle below from top to bottom.

Ye Yuxi also noticed that the people fighting below were a little familiar, not only the young master, but also the few people watching them were the tables of mercenaries from the previous Tianshan Inn.

Originally, Ye Yuxi speculated that these mercenaries were invited by Mr. Wen Ya to escort them, but now it seems that he was wrong in his deduction, and those mercenaries have been following here, intending to kill themselves for money.

"Miss, can we help?" Qing'er looked at the situation below. Although the elegant young man was powerful, he was about to be unable to resist.

Ye Yuxi also kept watching the situation below with cold eyes. The old man in the inn was not there at this time, only the elegant young man and two followers. Difficult, surrounded by those mercenaries, unable to escape.
