The procession moved forward in a grand procession, the heavy sound of its wheels echoing far and wide through the mountains and fields.

Almost all the eyes in the shadows were on the carriage heavily guarded by soldiers.

But Lin Feng was certain that the carriage was 99% empty.

Prefect Wu Bin would never have placed such a hot potato as the White Jade Token in such a conspicuous escort team unless he had lost his mind.

This is just a smokescreen to draw fire.

Not only him, but others probably harbored the same doubts.

Despite their doubts, the immense allure of the Jade Token was enough to make many people suppress their reason and choose to take a gamble.

What if Wu Bin does the opposite and finds the most dangerous place to be the safest?

This gambler's mentality, where they fear the worst, drives them to follow relentlessly, like hyenas that have caught the scent of blood.

Lin Feng followed at a leisurely pace, secretly observing as he went.

These people are not very strong, and even their agility is not very good.

After all, someone who could be seen through by Lin Feng at a glance must not be very strong.

Alternatively, those cunning old foxes are more patient and stay hidden in the shadows, preparing to be the ones who catch the prey.

In addition, they also saw through the trap and didn't bother to steal the empty car.

Those who can cultivate to the Innate Realm are rarely truly foolish; they possess considerable experience in the martial world, keen insight, and sound judgment.

He didn't deliberately speed up his pace; in fact, he seemed quite leisurely.

Gradually, the team ahead left him further and further behind, eventually disappearing around the bend of the winding mountain road.

Under the blazing sun, the soil on the official road was almost hot.

Lin Feng had no interest in following along and getting his hands dirty, much less in being exposed to the scorching sun.

Instead of taking the official road, they plunged into the nearby forest.

The lush trees in the mountains provided ample shade, and the air was much fresher.

Strolling along the forest paths and enjoying the mountain scenery of Huayang Prefecture was quite pleasant.

Before you know it, night falls.

The surrounding visibility was getting darker and darker.

As he was walking, Lin Feng suddenly stopped, his ears twitching slightly.

A very faint rustling sound came from the bushes to the side.

Similar sounds also began to emanate from different directions, subtly indicating an encirclement.

The commotion didn't seem to be human; due to the dense trees and the dim moonlight, only a vague outline could be seen.

With a thought, he took out a portable infrared night vision device from his spatial storage, quickly put it on, and scanned the direction from which the sound came.

In the night vision goggles, the originally dark jungle was suddenly outlined by different shades of red.

In my field of vision, there were wolves all around. A quick glance revealed about twenty of them, all large and robust, with their fangs faintly visible in the dim light.

They had clearly surrounded Lin Feng, treating him as prey.

The low whimpers and the sound of claws scratching the ground showed their restlessness before attacking.

"Tsk tsk, it's been a while since I've stretched my muscles, my hands are a bit rusty."

Lin Feng was not flustered at all; on the contrary, he became quite interested.

With a light tap of his feet, his body floated up as if weightless, landing steadily on the horizontal branch of a large tree beside him, looking down from above.

He was still wearing night vision goggles, and his vision was clear.

He casually took out a three-stone longbow and arrows from his spatial storage.

Draw the bow, nock the arrow, and aim at the nearest wolf below that is raising its head and growling.

"Whoosh"

The arrow left the bowstring with a sharp whistling sound.

The gray wolf below didn't even have time to react before the arrow pierced its eye socket with pinpoint accuracy.

It only managed to let out a short, mournful cry before collapsing to the ground with a thud, its limbs twitching a few times before falling still.

The wolf pack instantly became agitated.

Lin Feng did not let them go. Standing on a tree branch, the night vision goggles provided an excellent view, and the bowstring in his hand kept humming.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Every arrow hits its mark.

With each arrow shot, a wolf howls and dies.

Precise, ruthless, and efficient.

In the blink of an eye, eight wolf carcasses lay beneath the tree, and the heavy stench of blood permeated the night air.

The remaining wolves were stunned by this one-sided massacre and began to retreat.

Just then, a powerful wolf howl came from a small mound about a hundred meters away: Awoo!

Upon hearing this, the remaining wolves below immediately tucked their tails between their legs, lowered their bodies, and began to retreat rapidly in the opposite direction from the sound of the howl.

That was clearly the wolf king.

Lin Feng put away his bow and arrows, and with another thought, a jet-black M2 sniper rifle appeared in his hand.

He skillfully installed the high-efficiency muffler.

Lin Feng held his breath and gently pulled the trigger.

"puff!"

A soft, muffled sound, after being silenced.

Almost at the same time the gunshot rang out, in the scope, the wolf king's head exploded like a watermelon hit by a heavy hammer.

Its massive body swayed and then collapsed limply onto the mound.

One shot, and he was dead.

After sniping the wolf king, Lin Feng did not stop. He slightly moved the muzzle of his gun and with two more soft "thuds," he also killed the two smaller alpha wolves that were running slower.

After doing all this, he put away his sniper rifle and nodded in satisfaction.

The wolf pack, having lost its leader and core members, has completely disintegrated and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.

Since we've gone hunting, we can't waste the opportunity.

Lin Feng jumped down from the tree and walked to the wolf carcasses.

A black lotus phantom flashed in his palm and began to devour them one by one.

Although ordinary wild beasts provide far less energy than demonic beasts and acquired masters, they are fresh and plentiful.

The essence was transformed and absorbed by the black lotus, and fed back into Lin Feng's body.

A moment later, Lin Feng felt warm all over, full of energy, and his whole body was radiant.

Night had fallen, and the forest had returned to silence, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Because the dense forest was too dark, Lin Feng jumped continuously from treetop to treetop.

About ten minutes.

As we passed through a relatively sparse woodland, a clear metallic clanging sound, mixed with shouts and screams, reached our ears.

"A fight has broken out?" Lin Feng's spirits lifted, and he immediately quickened his pace.

He quickly climbed a nearby large, leafy tree, using the height to look in the direction from which the sound came.

At the same time, he put on night vision goggles again.

A few hundred meters ahead, a denser mixed forest stretched out, its surface glowing red under the torches.

The escort team from Huayang Prefecture was indeed intercepted.

At this moment, the conspicuous carriage was surrounded by layers of soldiers, forming a circular formation.

Meanwhile, on the outer perimeter, dozens of martial arts practitioners dressed in various colorful outfits were engaged in a fierce battle with the guards.

Swords flashed and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

The soldiers were well-trained, coordinated perfectly, and formed a stable formation.

However, the martial arts practitioners are individually more powerful, agile, and ruthless, specializing in attacking weaknesses.

The two sides were locked in combat, with people constantly being injured and falling to the ground. There were already no fewer than ten corpses lying in the clearing in the woods.

Lin Feng noticed that although the martial arts practitioners launched a fierce attack, they could not break through the tight defenses of the city guards, and the carriage remained intact.

Night fighting is indeed disadvantageous to regular troops, as visibility is obstructed and command and coordination become much more difficult. However, thanks to their numerical advantage, they managed to hold on.

Lin Feng had no intention of making a move; he simply hid among the tree canopy and branches, carefully scanning every corner of the battlefield with his night vision goggles.

Soon, Lin Feng discovered that there were several other people hiding in the woods, who were just observing.
