"Brother, what do you think about what I said?"
After saying that, Xu Jian looked at Xiao Ming with a smile on his face.
"Oh, I don't think so." Xiao Ming's husky voice had no ups and downs.
"The buzzing mountain fist!" Xu Jian, who had guessed such an outcome, shouted as soon as Xiao Ming's voice fell, and his hands emerged with earthy yellow Dou Qi as he punched towards Xiao Ming's head.
The other people also had an extremely tacit understanding to execute a Dou Technique attack towards Xiao Ming.
Therefore, they took advantage of the conversation time and approached silently.
So the attacks reached Xiao Ming in an instant.
Seeing that the black-robed man was about to die at the hands of himself and the others, the white-haired man in the crowd who attacked, did not forget to sneer, "Little midget, to tell the truth, even if you deliver them, you could hardly have escaped death, hahahaha, die!"
'What a stinky mouth'
The white haired young man was obviously the guy who had been provoking the others in the dense forest, and now he was cursing him, Xiao Ming took a look at him and decided to help his mother educate him properly, the tuition fee was his little life.
Xiao Ming's face did not change as the red Dou Qi surged from the bottom of his feet.
With a roar, he rushed towards them with a speed that Xu Jian could barely comprehend, his body twisted strangely to avoid their attacks, and then dodged between them, heading straight for the white-haired man in the background.
How could he be?
Seeing Xiao Ming's astonishing speed, Xu Jian was incredulous and almost shouted in surprise.
It was clear that his opponent's exposed aura was just a Dou Grandmaster, and he was also a Dou Grandmaster, but his opponent's speed was much faster than his!
The white-haired man looked at Xiao Ming, who was approaching him, and understood that he was fixated on him, and a ruthless tinge appeared on his face.
He injected a large amount of blue Dou Qi into the long blade in his hand, which was originally attacking Xiao Ming, and it glowed with a dark blue color.
''Kid, aiming at me is your mistake, I'm a Dou Grandmaster."
With a fierce smile on his face, the white-haired man ruthlessly brought down the sword in his hand.
When the remaining four heard this, their eyes lit up and they all executed their movement Dou Technique, using all their strength to run in the other direction.
"Oh, you think you can run away by simply splitting up? That's naive, Spirit, kill them for me."
Spirit, who received the order, severely disappeared from the scene, and a few seconds later, the few people running into the dense forest fell one after another with a thud.
Looking at this scene, Xiao Ming shook his head.
Why bother?
If they hadn't run away, they wouldn't have died so quickly, and it would have taken him a little effort if the several people had joined forces.
Waving his hand to retrieve the spirit returning to his body, Xiao Ming bent down and took the storage ring from the index finger of the white-haired man at his feet.
Without checking anything yet, and placing the longsword in his hand inside, Xiao Ming walked over to the other corpses.
A few moments later, after hanging some of the storage rings on his own storage ring rope, he continued his own exploration.
There was nothing left in the small field, and Xiao Ming set his eyes on the only hut in the field.
There were good things in the field, so he thought the hut would have them too.
With this thought, Xiao Ming opened the door of the hut.
As expected, there was nothing special in the hut, but he found a sixth-tier pill on the table in the center of the hut, as well as a stack of second and third tier pill recipes.
These pill recipes also made Xiao Ming realize that the original owner of the hut must have been an alchemist, which was why there were so many medicinal herbs in the small field.
This trip had made him rich!
The Secret Realm was really the right place, and Xiao Ming was in a very good mood when he left the hut.
It could only be said that he was lucky to arrive so early and not have anyone around him at the same entrance of the passage as him.
This was what allowed him to get hold of so many goods one step ahead of the others.
He knew he wasn't as lucky in the simulator, there were too many people around him and he couldn't take too many things.
Standing in the small field, Xiao Ming suddenly felt a hint that something was wrong.
'It's been a short time since I left, how come that white-haired man's corpse has dried up, and also that Xu Jian's?'
The two men who had been lying on the ground had already turned into skin and bones.
Xiao Ming looked at the corpses of the other people and found them all like this.
A shudder ran through his heart.
Damn it, the simulator had overlooked these details again, which was too annoying.
No wonder the self in the simulator often didn't live more than a few years, this constant overlooking of some details by the simulator must be one of the culprits.
After cursing, Xiao Ming quickly jumped over the fence and left the small field to sneak into the dense forest.
