“Since that's the case, we must work together. As for other matters, we'll discuss them when we encounter them.”
“I agree,” Han Weiguo stated.
Before Xie Qiye could speak, he stepped forward to declare his stance.
However, even in this situation, he would still be threatened.
It was just that what they had to face now was not what they had imagined, and there might even be greater threats.
“You… what kind of attitude is that?”
“There’s no particular attitude. My meaning is very clear. Of course, I want to travel with you and advance and retreat together.”
“Huh! This kid has finally seen the light!” Xie Qiye exclaimed in surprise.
They hadn't expected such an outcome, as none of them fully understood its implications.
If everyone had such thoughts, it would be impossible to deal with anyone, and this was the most obvious point.
“Hmph! I’m just considering my own safety,” Han Weiguo said anxiously.
He had seen everything unfold. If problems arose, it would affect them all.
However, he had no choice. He couldn’t rely on Jiang Feng anymore. If he faced trouble here, no one would take him in.
“Alright, alright, let’s find a place to settle down, or we’ll be in trouble tonight.”
Seeing that they were still arguing, Yun Lang, who was standing nearby, suddenly intervened to stop them.
Ultimately, all matters were observed, and if trouble arose, it would not be their concern.
However, relative to them, Jiang Feng and Su Xin, who were currently in the Demon Den, were not feeling as at ease.
The Demon Den was enveloped in demonic energy, with corrosive power permeating everywhere.
A single misstep could truly endanger their lives. They were all aware of this.
If they continued to face danger, it would be far worse than they imagined and even more troublesome.
“Senior Brother Jiang Feng, it’s too dangerous here.”
“Exactly, we must remain vigilant.”
“Otherwise, a single mistake could lead to our demise.”
“This…” Su Xin hesitated.
It wasn't that he wasn't being careful, but he was worried that such caution would be useless.
Everyone knew how much trouble they would encounter, and if things continued like this, everyone would be in danger.
Yet, they still had to proceed, or more critical issues would arise.
“Then… then how should we face this?”
“Yun Lang and the others have been here for so long, why haven't they found us yet?” Su Xin asked, confused.
Given the dangerous situation here, Yun Lang and the others had inexplicably not appeared.
If that freak Yun Lang were here, their situation might have already taken a turn for the better.
“It’s better they don’t come. Do you want them to come and reap the rewards?” Jiang Feng said fiercely.
Jiang Feng hadn't forgotten about the Wang family's affairs.
If he had the chance, he would definitely get revenge on them. This was the clearest intention.
After all, everything was observable, and surely someone knew their circumstances.
“But… but I fear neither you nor I can deal with the danger here.”
“Just try your best. Whether it’s impossible or not, we don’t know yet,” Jiang Feng stated.
It was just a Demon Den, and he had no worries.
Moreover, he even interpreted the current situation as the treasures within the Demon Den possibly belonging to them.
Seeing this, even Su Xin didn't know what to say and simply closed his mouth, remaining silent.
He understood the extent of the trouble they might face and how many things could go wrong.
If problems arose in the future, it might not be as simple as it seemed now.
“This…”
Hearing this, he could only follow Jiang Feng’s plan.
If they encountered danger, with their strength, even if they weren't a match, escaping would be effortless.
Whoosh!
Just then, a powerful force emanated from within the Demon Den.
“What was that?”
“It’s… it’s demonic energy,” Jiang Feng said in great pain.
His veins bulged on his face, and it was clear he was in danger.
But even so, they still showed expressions of agony.
Ultimately, however, there was nothing they could explain.
“Are… are you alright?” Su Xin asked urgently, seeing Jiang Feng’s condition.
Because Jiang Feng was closest to the Demon Den, he had absorbed the surge of intense demonic energy when it erupted.
It was precisely because of this that they all began to suffer.
“Don’t worry, my vast righteousness can definitely suppress that demonic energy.”
“Are you sure?” Su Xin asked, full of doubt.
She understood the current situation, but since Jiang Feng claimed to be fine, she didn't need to doubt him further.
If real problems occurred, it would undoubtedly be a greater blow to them.
They might not even know how to handle it in the future, and this was the most crucial point, with no explanation in sight.
Seeing this, they couldn't help but start to doubt. If danger arose in the future, it would certainly not be as they said.
“You guard me here.”
“Alright!” Su Xin understood that he wanted to expel the demonic energy from his body and quickly stood by his side to protect him.
Jiang Feng, on the other hand, sat cross-legged and began to meditate, secretly channeling the cultivation techniques of the Taichu Sect to expel the demonic energy from his body.
However, even with this effort, his strength seemed insufficient to expel the demonic energy completely.
“Oh no, if this continues, won’t I be controlled by the demonic energy?” Jiang Feng worried, thinking this. After all, he was still a disciple of the Taichu Sect.
If he were to become a demonic cultivator in the future, anyone would look down on him.
“Senior Brother, how are you?”
“I… I’m fine.” Jiang Feng wiped the sweat from his brow.
At the critical moment, he couldn’t expel the demonic energy, so he had to suppress it with his true qi.
Fortunately, the demonic energy was relatively dormant and hadn't caused him significant harm.
Otherwise, if trouble arose in the future, it would certainly be dangerous for him.
“I-I’m glad you’re okay,” Su Xin nodded.
However, a black mark, resembling three eyes, still hung on Jiang Feng’s forehead.
Su Xin knew that was where the demonic energy had converged.
But since Jiang Feng said he was fine, they would certainly not doubt him.
“Let’s continue our journey.”
“Yes!” Su Xin nodded.
As Jiang Feng continued to walk deeper into the Demon Den, a chilling, eerie laughter suddenly echoed from within.
“Hahaha, two little brats, daring to enter my Demon Den.”
“Who’s there?” Jiang Feng exclaimed in surprise.
At the same time, Su Xin, who was following behind him, was equally astonished.
