The next morning.

When the people of the ning and Chi families came out of their tents and saw the scene in front of them, they were all shocked speechless.

What … What was going on? In front of them, there were corpses of humans, poisonous bees, poisonous scorpions, and spiders. It was obvious that the battle last night was more intense than they had imagined because some people had died, and there were many of them.

They originally thought that even if the major forces were attacked again, they would at most be poisoned like the previous two times, but their lives would not be in danger. However, they were wrong. The attack last night should have caused a lot of damage to the major forces.

After seeing the situation in front of them, the two families spontaneously searched the scene.

After some observation, the two families found that the Yao family had suffered the most losses, followed by the Wen family. Although the other forces also suffered casualties, their situation was relatively better.

“Elder Yao Wu, are you alright?” Looking at the fifth elder of the Yao family who had wounds all over his body and face, ning Fei tried to hold back the joy in his heart and asked with concern.

After last night, no one from the Yao family who came to the nightmare forest survived except for the fifth elder. He couldn’t help but sigh. The poisonous insects ‘eyes were really sharp. They could actually tell that the Yao family was not a good person! The others were all dead, leaving only the fifth elder behind. It could be seen that those poisonous insects were quite bad.

“I don’t need your fake kindness. Of course I’m fine.” The fifth elder of the Yao family said weakly. Last night, those poisonous bees, scorpions, and spiders had all attacked them as if they didn’t care about their lives. He didn’t know what kind of medicine they had taken. After yesterday, he was the only person from the Yao family who had come to the forest. However, he had already sent the news back to the family. It wouldn’t be long before the family sent people here again. This time, his primary goal was to eliminate those damn poisonous insects!

“Master ning, elder Yao Wu must be in a bad mood right now. Let’s not disturb him.” Chi Rui walked over with a look of sympathy.

“You’re right, let’s go and see the others!” Ning Fei nodded in agreement. Then, the two of them left in front of the fifth elder.

Although they had left, the fifth elder of the Yao family kept staring at them with his venomous snake-like eyes. When he saw that they were all in high spirits and unscathed, the anger in his heart surged up. Suddenly, he felt a sweet taste in his throat, but he swallowed it.

Chi Rui and ning Fei left the Yao family’s encampment, chatting as they walked back to their home.

“Master ning, I’m afraid this old man from the Yao family also hates us.” Chi Rui looked in the direction of the Yao family and said.

“This is very normal. The Yao family has always been narrow-minded. Even if something happens, they won’t find the reason on themselves. However, I’m afraid that the other forces are also dissatisfied with us.” Ning Fei said worriedly.

“You can’t blame us for this. Who knew that it would be so tragic last night!” Chi Rui said disapprovingly. Since they were tied to the ning family, they didn’t think that those people would dare to do anything to them even if they were dissatisfied. So, he was really not afraid. Moreover, it was not their fault that those poisonous insects refused to find them!

“I didn’t expect that either.” Ning Fei said with a frown.

“Master ning, since things have come to this, we shouldn’t think too much. What they will do next is what we should be most concerned about.” Chi Rui reminded. Before he arrived, his grandfather had reminded him to perform well and leave a good impression on Leng ruoxue and the others.

“Yes.” Ning Fei nodded.

After last night’s incident, the major forces suffered heavy losses. However, they all sent the news back as soon as possible. In the next few days, they quietly stayed in the nightmare forest, waiting for their families to send people to help.

During this time, Leng ruoxue and the others had already made all the necessary preparations and were just waiting for the fish to take the bait.

In contrast to the nervous mood of the people in the forest, Leng ruoxue and the others were in a relatively good mood.

Five days later.

The people from the various factions who had come to support them had finally arrived. However, they did not want these people to easily find a place to stay. Hence, Leng ruoxue had specially set up a bewildering formation in the forest.

In the forest.

After the various factions made a few rounds in the forest, they discovered that they had been wandering in the same place. This fact could not help but make them burn with anger.

“Dammit, what the hell is this place? How did this happen?” The fifth elder of the Yao family couldn’t help but curse. He had been to this place a few days ago, and it didn’t look like this. It had only been a few days, and he actually couldn’t recognize it anymore. It was really infuriating.

“Fifth brother, calm down! If I’m not wrong, we’ve entered a bewildering formation. ” The Yao family’s second elder spoke. He had some knowledge of formations, but it wouldn’t be easy to break this bewildering formation.

“Then what do we do?” The fifth elder of the Yao family asked gloomily. He knew nothing about formations!

“Don’t worry, let me think. ” The Yao family’s second elder said with a frown.

“Second elder Yao, I’ve heard that you’re very knowledgeable in formations. We’ll be relying on you this time.” Chi Rui chuckled, his face calm.

“Young master Chi, I only have a superficial knowledge of formations. I can’t be considered to have studied them. Moreover, it’s difficult for me to get out of this maze by myself, so please don’t stand by and watch!” The second elder of the Yao family hurriedly said.

“Second elder Yao is too humble. Who doesn’t know that you’re the most proficient in arrays in the divine mainland?” Ning Fei said with a smile.

“Yup! That’s right! We all know that second elder Yao has the most knowledge in formations. ” Hearing ning Fei’s words, everyone quickly agreed.

When the second elder of the Yao family heard this, his nose almost went crooked from anger. Were these people planning to be hands-off managers? This was preposterous!

“Second elder Yao, you can slowly observe this bewildering formation. We’ll go to the other side to stay so as not to disturb you.” Chi Rui said with an evil smile. Then, he pulled his family members to the other open space. Before he left, he gave ning Fei a look. Ning Fei understood and immediately followed him with the elders of his family. The others also hid to the side.

In the blink of an eye, only the Yao clan members were left in the middle of the bewildering formation.

“Second brother, should we also go over there?” The fifth elder of the Yao family probed as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Other than the second elder, the rest of the Yao family didn’t know anything about formations, so they wouldn’t be of much help here! He thought to himself with some apprehension.

“I’ll break the legs of anyone who dares to leave!” The second elder of the Yao family roared with a face full of anger. With this roar, all the people of the Yao family who had wanted to slack off became obedient.

Chi Rui and ning Fei couldn’t help but laugh in their hearts when they saw the Yao family’s cautious expressions. However, they were not members of the Yao family, so the second elder would not vent his anger on them even if he was angry. That old man was much smarter than the fifth elder.

Just like that, Chi Rui and the others watched the second elder of the Yao family looking for the formation core in the maze every day while they enjoyed the good food and drinks and watched the fun. From time to time, they would also ask about the progress of the maze. However, every time they asked the second elder of the Yao family, the old man would pull a long face, obviously not liking to hear this question.

A week later.

Everyone was still trapped in the bewildering formation. Other than the Chi and Yao families, the other powers could no longer sit still. They constantly sent people to ask the second elder about the situation of the bewildering formation. In the end, they only dared to speak after being scolded by the second elder.

The second elder of the Yao family was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Other than pacing around, he didn’t seem to have any good ideas.

Seeing the second elder walking back and forth, Chi Rui couldn’t help but whisper to ning Fei,””Master ning, it looks like the second elder of the Yao family can’t do anything about this array! I don’t know how long we’ll have to stay here. ”

“AI! We’ll run out of food if we stay here for a few more days. ” Ning Fei sighed and said helplessly. He didn’t know how long miss Leng was going to keep them here. Many of them were about to break down.

“Don’t worry, she won’t let us starve to death here. ” Chi Rui said with confidence.

“Yeah, you’re right.” Ning Fei agreed.

At this moment, someone shouted,””The formation seems to have disappeared.”

After Chi Rui and ning Fei heard this, they quickly walked to the second elder of the Yao family and said with a smile,””Second elder Yao is indeed proficient in array techniques. In such a short time, you’ve solved this bewildering array. Congratulations.”

“Hehe!”

The Yao family’s second elder was rather calm when he heard their words because he knew very well that he wasn’t the one who had solved the maze. It had disappeared on its own. Although he didn’t know what had happened, he was smart enough to remain silent.

However, some people weren’t as low-key as him. When the fifth elder heard their words, he raised his head proudly and said loudly,””Of course, everyone knows the second elder of our Yao family’s skill in formations.”

“Is that so?” At this time, a calm voice rang out in everyone’s ears. Everyone turned their heads in unison and saw a devastatingly beautiful woman standing not far away from them. Instantly, everyone was stunned.

“Who are you?” The Yao family’s fifth elder, who had regained his senses, asked with a stunned expression.

“Elder Yao Wu, don’t you know who I am?” Leng ruoxue smiled and asked instead of answering.

“You’re Leng ruoxue!” The second elder of the Yao family said with certainty.

“Hehe! Second elder Yao is the smartest!” Leng ruoxue gasped in admiration, then turned to everyone and said,””I was afraid that you would get lost in the forest, so I came to welcome you.”

“Hmph! Would you be so kind?” The second elder of the Yao family said with a look of disdain. He was now very sure that the bewildering formation was set up by Leng ruoxue. Otherwise, the bewildering formation wouldn’t have disappeared without a trace. Facing the enemy who had trapped them for several days, he really didn’t have a good expression.

“Why not? I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to find me, so I came to you myself!” Leng ruoxue chuckled, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears. Everyone’s hearts immediately softened.

Such a stunning beauty was looking at them pitifully, which man could refuse her! Furthermore, they had imagined countless scenarios where they would meet Leng ruoxue and the rest, but they had never expected that they would be so stunned by Leng ruoxue …
