After all, the other party is a great fighting master. Although it is easy to kill him, the noise will definitely not be too small and may very likely attract some attention and chaos.

Although he concealed his face, the conflict between the Sand Mercenaries and the Desert Iron Mercenaries was known to everyone. By then, if it was publicized by someone with ulterior motives, it might be disadvantageous to him.

Xiao Yan would never let this happen.

"I wonder what you want, senior?" Sha Luo lowered his head and said respectfully. He could not imagine how his small Sand Mercenary Group would offend the other party.

"I heard that your mercenary group is the largest in Shimo City. It just so happens that I'm short of money, so I came to borrow some from you."

Xiao Yan spoke casually, preparing for a sneak attack.

"?" Sara was a little shocked and angry. He didn't expect it to be such a reason. He actually suffered an undeserved disaster because of his reputation?

At the moment when Sha Luo's emotions fluctuated, Xiao Yan's soul needle that had been hidden for a long time was released directly and pierced straight into Sha Luo's sea of ​​consciousness.

There was a sudden sharp pain in his head, and his vision went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the "Senior Fighting King" had smashed his temple with both fists.

Sara didn't know why the other party suddenly attacked. He didn't understand how things were going, but he didn't need to understand.

"Baji collapse!"

With a loud snap, Sarah's head was smashed into flat pieces of flesh, and he went to hell without knowing why.

"Huh." Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, searched Sha Luo and Mo Xing, and took out a storage ring and a bunch of keys.

With a slight smile, Xiao Yan pulled down his hood and climbed out of the window silently. Before leaving, he did not forget to close the window considerately.

“I hope you are not too poor.”

The next morning, at the base of the Motie Mercenary Group.

Everyone present had a solemn look on their faces. They all knew that there would most likely be a fierce battle with the Sand Mercenaries today, so they had made preparations early.

But no matter how long they waited, the large force of the Sand Mercenaries still did not arrive.

It was not until a shocking news came from Shimo City that the members of the Motie Mercenary Group knew what had happened.

Just last night, the leader and deputy leader of the Sand Mercenary Group were murdered at their base, and the mercenary group's treasury was looted.

What's even more terrifying is that there were no signs of a fight at the scene, which means that Sha Luo and Mo Xing died before they could even take a single blow.

The one who took action was at least a Dou Ling.

For a time, everyone in Shimo City felt insecure.

Outside Shimo City, the headquarters of the Motie Mercenary Group.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at each other. They had been prepared for a fierce battle, and even the other two powerful fighters in the group were mobilized.

However, they did not expect the reality to develop so dramatically. Before the battle even started, the Sand Mercenary Group was in name only, which made them feel a little unreal.

"Well, isn't this a good thing?" Xiao Yan sat at the table with a smile on his face, chewing a skewer of barbecue, as if nothing had happened.

"Xiao Yanzi, you are so careless. The one who was killed was not just any random person, but a great fighting master." Facing his younger brother, Xiao Li didn't know what to say.

"I'm afraid that the strong man who killed Sha Luo has other purposes." Xiao Ding said slowly.

"There's nothing to worry about. We can deal with it as it comes. Why work so hard all day long?" Xiao Yan didn't know how to explain that the mysterious strong man was himself, so he just started to make trouble.

"You are still so naive."

Just as the three brothers were chatting, a bearded mercenary opened the tent and walked in. Although he was dusty, he could not hide the excitement on his face.

"Three captains, let's find the underground passage!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes immediately sparkled. He stopped eating, quickly stood up and walked out.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at each other, shrugged, and followed.

"Get out of the way!" The bearded mercenary shouted as he cleared a path. Xiao Yan followed behind and took a quick glance. He was surprised to find that a hole about two meters in diameter had been dug out of the sunken area. It was pitch black inside the hole, with a faint sense of heat rising from it.

"Xiao Yan, there is a magma zone below. The strange fire is very likely here." Han Li's voice appeared in Xiao Yan's ears at the same time, reminding him.

Xiao Yan nodded imperceptibly, took out a moonstone from his storage ring, and threw it into the black hole.

After the moonstone rolled a few times, it completely disappeared into the cave.

"It doesn't look like a straight line." Xiao Yan pondered for a moment.

"According to the calculations of the exploration personnel, there are probably dozens of similar passages underneath, intertwined with each other, like the passages through which a giant snake crawls."

"Snake?" Xiao Yan's pupils shrank slightly. He was now quite sensitive to the word "snake".

Especially since this place could only be found through Qinglin's blood sensing, he became vaguely alert.

"To be on the safe side, we have to call Hai Lao over and go down with us." After making up his mind, Xiao Yan quickly gave a few instructions and then quickly left the camp.

After a while, he returned here with a white-haired old man.

"Xiao Yan, who is this old gentleman?"

Puzzled by Xiao Yan's behavior, Xiao Li asked.

"This is a helper I invited."

Xiao Yan opened his mouth to explain.

Hai Bodong did not say anything either. A group of small mercenaries who didn't even have a Dou Ling were not worthy of his special treatment.

There was also considerable controversy over the selection of people to go down into the cave. After all, the entrance to the cave was not very spacious, and if too many people went down, it would be difficult to get out if an accident occurred.

Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong will naturally go down. Another candidate is Qing Lin. Her blood sensing can serve as a good guide.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li started arguing, and in the end, it was Xiao Yan who spoke up to dissuade them.

"Big brother, you are cultivating wood-type Dou Qi, which is not suitable for the environment below. Second brother cultivates thunder-type Dou Qi, which has little impact."

Xiao Ding nodded helplessly and said, "In that case, the four of you can go down. Don't worry about the safety above."

"As long as I am here, I will not let your retreat be cut off."

Chapter 89 Hai Bodong vs. Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake

In the dark passage, Xiao Yan held Qing Lin in his arms and continued to slide down. In front of the two of them, several moonstones emitted a faint and soft light, clearing the obstacles in front of them.

Xiao Yan continued to slide down along the slope of the passage. He was somewhat surprised that the passage seemed extremely smooth, with hardly any stone protruding from the cave wall. It looked as if it was violently pierced through by a huge energy pillar.

After sliding down for two or three minutes, Xiao Yan could already see the bottom of the passage. He bent his feet slightly, and after a moment, with a muffled sound, his body bent into a bow shape and fell to the ground, using the bend to dissipate the impact of the landing.

After landing on the ground, Xiao Yan put Qing Lin down from his arms, nodded to Hai Bodong and Xiao Li who had already come down, and then swept his eyes towards the road ahead.

The two who came down early had already arranged the moonstone, but what was reflected in front of Xiao Yan were dozens of dark tunnels.

"It will take a lot of time to search these dozens of passages one by one." Xiao Li shrugged and said casually.

Xiao Yan smiled, patted Qing Lin on the shoulder, and said, "Just sense it. Otherwise, it will take us four or five days to finish the exploration."

"Yeah." Nodding, Qing Lin pulled Xiao Yan and blinked his eyes slightly. Three extremely tiny light green dots appeared silently around his emerald pupils. Due to the dim light, no one among the four people present noticed this except Xiao Yan.

As Qinglin slowly closed his eyes, the atmosphere around him calmed down temporarily. After a moment, Qinglin opened his eyes, pointed his little hand at the passage on the left, and said:

“Although there are some auras in other passages, it is the strongest in that direction.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes swept towards the dark passage. The passage was obviously very long. It was a deep darkness. Seeing this situation, Xiao Yan couldn't help but frowned slightly.

"It's very hot down there." Hai Bodong held onto the cave entrance, sensed it and said.

"It seems that there is indeed something strange down there." Xiao Yan murmured, with a burning heat in his eyes. The weirder it was, the greater the chance of the existence of strange fire, which was actually good news for him.

But it's always better to be careful.

Seeing Xiao Yan's appearance, Xiao Li swallowed some of his words of advice to be careful.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look first. If we find something wrong, we will withdraw first and make long-term plans. After all, we already know the common sayings here. There is no need to take too many risks later. Just spend more time." Xiao Yan said in a low voice.

The strongest Hai Bodong led the way, followed closely by the second strongest Xiao Yan. Xiao Li looked after Qing Lin, and the four of them walked into the passage.

Walking into the dark passage, Xiao Yan felt his whole body getting a little cold. He licked his lips, narrowed his eyes slightly, and quickly scanned the smooth cave walls around him. He stuffed several pills such as the Qi-recovering pill and the power-storing pill into his mouth without leaving any trace.

This has become Xiao Yan's habit. After all, no one knows when this increase in power and fighting spirit will take effect.

Every fifty meters or so, Xiao Yan would place a moonstone on the cave wall to illuminate it so that he wouldn't get lost on his way back.

Every little thing was firmly under control, and this flawless operation also made Hai Bodong and Xiao Li nod secretly.

With the help of the light of the moonstone, they walked slowly in the dark passage. Since they didn't know what the danger was, they all remained silent. Along the way, except for the slight rustling sound of footsteps, there was almost silence.

In the dark and silent passage, there seemed to be no concept of time. The four of them walked forward in a somewhat stiff manner.

As the distance deepened, Hai Bodong at the front suddenly said, "The temperature is starting to rise."

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then with his keen perception, he sensed a faint burning sensation, licked his lips, and said solemnly:

"The fire energy here is very strong. It looks like this will be a success."

"Brother, Qinglin, why don't you stay here? If we continue, I'm afraid we'll spontaneously combust..."

Qing Lin shook his head and said, "Master Xiao Yan, I can still hold on."

Xiao Li also grinned and said, "If you can do it, then I, your second brother, can do it too."

Seeing that the two had no intention of retreating, Xiao Yan had no choice but to say, "If you feel something is wrong, tell me immediately."

After going deeper for about ten minutes and turning a corner again, a red light appeared at the end of the passage not far away.

The four of them sped up, quickly passed through this short distance, and then came to the end of the passage.

A fiery red world appeared before them!

In the huge underground cave, the fiery red magma was flowing slowly. Occasionally, huge bubbles emerged from the magma. But after a moment, with a slight sound, it exploded with a bang, and the hot magma burst out from it, as gorgeous as a fiery red firework.

"It's actually magma." Han Li, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke in surprise and understood.

"Teacher?" Xiao Yan lowered his voice, somewhat puzzled.

"The underground magma world covers the range of my perception, and some subtle places are difficult to detect." Han Li explained:

"But Xiao Yan, pay attention to the wall. There should be living creatures here."

Xiao Yan looked over and found a scratch on the rock wall that appeared and disappeared with the rise and fall of the magma.

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I didn't expect... that there is such a horrible place hidden under the ground outside Shimo City." The surface of his body was wrapped in a layer of deep blue light. Xiao Li wiped the sweat off his face and was a little amazed.

"Yes, it's spectacular." Xiao Yan continued.
