Beauty and the Bodyguard

Moreover, the individual strength of these people was not outstanding, and escaping into the dense forest would only be like drinking poison to quench one\'s thirst. The various dangers hidden in the forest would definitely be much more than those on the main road. Even Ling Tianyou could not guarantee that he would be able to escape unscathed, let alone the others.

Compared to Ling Tianyou\'s miserable state, Duanmu Yu\'s state wasn\'t any better. There were much fewer people on her side, but their strength was generally not weak. They were all disciples of the archaic Alliance who were both courageous and ambitious.

In the eyes of most people, Duanmu Yu was strong, but he couldn\'t be compared to Lin Yi and the others. Even Ling Tianyou, who was at the peak of the late Foundation Stage, could suppress her. Choosing to go with her meant that they had chosen the path with the least security, but at the same time, it also meant that they had chosen the path with the most competition. If they encountered any treasures, everyone would be able to fight for it.

If it was the other two paths, especially Lin Yi\'s path, they wouldn\'t even need to think about it. Unless they avoided the main road and went into the forest alone, they wouldn\'t be able to get anything from Lin Yi\'s group. However, Duanmu Yu\'s path was different. Not only could they fight for it, but they also had a real chance to get it.

One thing worth mentioning was that health-maintenance Fei was one of them. He could\'ve gone with Lin Yi and the others, at least compared to the other unrelated disciples of the ancient Alliance. He had a higher chance of getting the soup, but his ambition wasn\'t limited to that.

Unfortunately, health-maintenance Fei and the others didn\'t get any opportunities or treasures. Instead, they got a giant one-eyed bear. Just like the other powerful spirit beasts that appeared, this was a powerful existence comparable to a Jindan stage expert. To Duanmu Yu and the others, this was an out-and-out disaster.

In the end, Duanmu Yu was lucky enough to escape the calamity. Everyone else, including Fei Yangwei, was collectively turned into Tributes. None of them were spared.

The heaven raising wall was the only precipice in the entire primordial trial grounds. To other spirit beasts, it was a forbidden zone that they could not approach easily, as it was the base camp of the primordial goumang race.

The Atlas wall was densely covered with caves of different sizes, and each cave had a goumang. There were hundreds of them, and the owner of the giant cave at the highest point was the primordial King goumang.

"My King!" All the goumang\'s were shocked when they saw King goumang return with heavy injuries. Although King goumang was not invincible, he was at least a rare opponent in the air. Normally, even if he was no match for King goumang, he would not be at such a disadvantage. What was going on today?

"You\'re injured?" An old goumang hurriedly came forward. It was the oldest and wisest think tank here, as well as the most skilled physician. It immediately began to examine King goumang\'s injuries.

"I\'ve encountered some trouble," King goumang couldn\'t keep his face straight anymore. No matter what, it wasn\'t a good thing to be scared off by a human like Lin Yi.

"Could it be the work of the red-scaled snake?" The red-scaled snake\'s territory was just next door, and it was common for them to fight each other. The snake\'s strength was indeed enough to seriously injure the ancient king goumang, but it would definitely not be in a good state.

"It\'s already dead," King goumang mumbled.

"Really?" Not only old goumang, but all the other goumang\'s faces lit up with joy when they heard this. The red-scaled snake was their mortal enemy, which was a great thing!

"No wonder you\'re so seriously injured. You even used escape. It\'s not a loss, not a loss." Old goumang nodded and said,""Should we send some goumang to take over the red-scaled snake\'s territory? otherwise, we\'ll be giving it to others for free?"

The red-scaled snake was a solitary creature. Once it died, its territory would naturally be empty. This was a piece of fat meat.

"I\'ll leave this matter to you. " King goumang said casually.

"Yes!" Old goumang replied happily, then paused before continuing,""Oh right, my King. That Lord\'s special envoy is here. He\'s waiting for you in your cave."

"I understand ..." King goumang\'s heart sank. What he was afraid of really happened. How was he going to explain this to the envoy?

He stepped into an extremely spacious cave. Carved beams and painted rafters could be seen on all four sides. It had an ancient style and was rich and magnificent. Even in the world, there were few places with such style. If an outsider were to enter without knowing the situation, they would definitely not think that this was the cave abode of King goumang from the primordial age.

This was the work of King goumang of the primordial age. Although the goumang tribe had the face of a human and the body of a bird, they had spontaneously adopted the human\'s way of thinking and customs. They all advocated human culture. Any goumang with a little status or status would have a certain aura of the primordial human culture in their cave abodes, and King goumang was the pinnacle of them.

Of course, even though they admired humans, it did not change the status of humans as food in their eyes. They learned what they needed to learn, and they still ate what they needed to eat. These were two different things.

In the past, the primordial King goumang would always be in a good mood when he returned to his cave abode. This time, he was trembling with fear as if he was walking on thin ice. If not for the fact that he knew he could not escape, he would have turned around and fled.

As King goumang walked into the cave abode with a perturbed heart, he immediately saw a tiny figure on the table. At first glance, it looked like a white and chubby little insect, but he did not dare to let his guard down. In fact, his heart trembled, and he almost knelt down on the spot.

"Lord special envoy, please excuse my rudeness." The primordial King goumang bowed respectfully.

"Speak clearly, were you impolite or did you lose?" The little white bug\'s voice was sharp and thin, giving people the feeling that it was a child\'s voice, but it inexplicably revealed a heart-palpitating aura.

"Uh ..." The primordial King goumang\'s expression froze. He knew that since the special envoy was here, he must have already grasped the situation."Lord special envoy, I have failed."
