The man on the ground said, “Li Xinghe is at the Fourth Rank Second Layer, and this time he brought two Fourth Tier Third Heaven Guardian Beastmasters with him… They have already reached the Dusty Mist Canyon in the Flashing Firefly Swamp.”
“We are escorting this group of people, and our destination is the Dusty Mist Canyon…”
“Pff!”
Chen Fan’s long knife cut across the man’s neck.
The man covered his neck with both hands, staring at Chen Fan with wide eyes before falling to the ground, no longer breathing.
Chen Fan quickly returned to the mountain road after jumping through the jungle.
On the mountain road, the bound group of people had somehow managed to break free from their ropes!
Chen Fan’s expression shifted slightly.
It seemed there were Star Martial Artists among these people?
At this moment, seeing Chen Fan return, a woman in her mid-twenties walked out from the group and said, “Thank you, kind sir, for saving us!”
Chen Fan sized up the woman and cocked his head to ask, “Are you a Star Martial Artist or a Guardian Beastmaster?”
The woman hurriedly replied, “I am a Star Martial Artist, Grade 2 Heavenly Realm 2.”
Even Grade 2 Heavenly Realm 1 Star Martial Artists were captured as bait, this Demon City Li family…
Chen Fan glanced at the group of people behind the woman and asked, “Aside from you, is anyone else a Star Martial Artist or Guardian Beastmaster?”
The woman replied, “There are three others who are Star Martial Artists, but their cultivation levels are only at the First Rank Five Heavens.”
Hearing this, Chen Fan furrowed his brows.
Most of the monsters in the Flashing Firefly Swamp had a level of 8 or above.
One Grade 2 Heavenly Realm 2 Star Martial Artist, plus three First Rank Five Heaven Star Martial Artists, would have a very hard time protecting such a large group of people.
Chen Fan felt a headache looking at the group of people.
He was also being hunted down right now.
Escorting such a large group of people was unrealistic.
However, Chen Fan could not just abandon these people to fend for themselves.
After a moment of silence, Chen Fan pointed to the pile of corpses and said, “The people I killed still have some intact armor on them. They also have shield-type bracers and high-level weapons on them…”
“You guys go and get those equipment, do you have the confidence to make it out of the Flashing Firefly Swamp?”
The woman gave a bitter smile and said, “It will be very difficult, but we have no other choice.”
Suddenly, a little girl walked over and said, “Big brother, thank you for saving us… Can you take us with you?”
Chen Fan sighed softly and said, “I am also being hunted down right now. Taking you with me would be very inconvenient… It might even bring disaster upon you.”
“Moreover, Li Xinghe kidnapped another group of people as well. I have to go and check on them.”
The little girl’s eyes widened, and she nodded vigorously, “Then… then you go!”
“We… We will make it out of this swamp on our own!”
“Good girl!” Chen Fan smiled slightly and patted the little girl on the head.
He then looked at the woman and asked, “Do you know the way to the Dusty Mist Canyon in the Flashing Firefly Swamp?”
The woman nodded and said, “From here, go in the northwest direction for about 180 miles, and you will find the Dusty Mist Canyon.”
“They want to capture us and take us there so they can use us as bait to catch the Shadow Giant Beasts.”
Chen Fan nodded slightly, “You guys take another route then, head northeast, and be careful along the way.”
After leaving that piece of advice, he dashed into the jungle and went in the northwest direction.
Just a little further ahead was the Flashing Firefly Swamp.
Chen Fan quickly moved through the jungle.
In his mind, he couldn’t help but think of the desperate, helpless gazes of the children he had seen earlier.
An indescribable killing intent rose in his heart.
At this moment, Chen Fan’s eyes became somewhat terrifying.
He had never wanted to kill someone as badly as he did right now!
He desired to kill them thoroughly!
