If Wang Chen really died, this time back, he would be punished inevitably. Now Wang Chen appears to let him see a glimmer of hope again.

  However, at the same time, thinking of the three deaths, the black-clad man's eyebrows furrowed again.

  If it was Wang Chen, how could he have directly killed three people in such a short period of time? Especially when one of them is a third-order spiritual warrior, what's going on here?

  The leader of the Luo family, a third-stage Spirit Warrior, was indeed quite powerful and it wouldn't be easy to kill him off lightly! However, reality had already set in, the middle-aged man from the Luo family had been killed.

  This third-order spiritual warrior plus two ninth-order true martial artists were killed together. What happened here?

  "It's impossible to rise so quickly, at most it would be buying into the ranks of a first-class spiritual warrior, could his secret method really increase his strength that much?" The black-robed man muttered to himself.

  Half a month ago, I saw Wang Chen, who was only a 9th-tier True Martial Artist at that time. Relying on his powerful secret method, he could temporarily boost his strength to barely match that of an initial-stage Spiritual Martial Artist.

  In just half a month's time, it was impossible for Wang Chen to have such a huge improvement! This could only make the middle-aged man suspect that Wang Chen had some secret method.

  A powerful secret technique, combined with a surprise attack, might just make it possible.

  Considering these aspects, the middle-aged man in black hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said to several people behind him: "Notify the people outside to pay attention to finding Wang Chen's trail. In the thorny mountain range, change to five people per group, and search within a distance of 1,000 meters!"

  ……………………

  After more than three months, he finally walked out of the thorny mountain range, and Wang Chen let out a long sigh.

  Looking back at the dense forest behind him, Wang Chen felt a mix of emotions. In just three months, he had experienced too much and learned even more.

  The cruelty of human heart and the greed of human nature are fully portrayed in the thorny mountains.

  Arriving at the outer edge of the thorny mountain range, a small town appeared in front of Wang Chen.

  The Thorny Mountain Range starts from the edge of the Great Departed Empire, passes through the Cang Yue Kingdom, and ends at a small town on the border of the Tian Feng Kingdom, spanning thousands of miles, among which three large towns are naturally the most famous.

  The Star Moon City at the starting point is the most prosperous city! Apart from the three major cities, there are also hundreds of small towns and villages in between!

  At this moment, what unfolded before Wang Chen was one of these small towns!

  Coming over here, it's clear that many adventurers are coming and going, bustling with activity.

  Where there are thorny mountains, there are adventurers. Where there are adventurers, there will never be a lack of excitement. A large group of adventurers spread their adventurous ideology, practice their adventurous spirit, and pursue their dreams of getting rich along the thousands of miles of Thorny Mountains!

  Many adventurers on the road are walking towards the thorny mountain range with their dreams.

  Many adventurers return to this small town with a wretched appearance and a sense of loss. Their dreams are once again buried in the thorny mountains!

  All that was left were bloodstains and the corpses of comrades.

  There were also some adventurers who had a small gain and were excited to loudly boast to the other adventurers!

  In the thorny mountains, everyone is an enemy. Once out of the thorny mountains, everyone becomes friends.

  This is the contradictory adventurer, this is the incomprehensible adventurer.

  In the previous moment, you can die for me, but once you leave the thorny mountain range, you will throw everything behind your head. This is the adventurer's abandon.

  "It's safe here, the Thorny Mountains aren't suitable for you!" Wang Chen turned his head to look at the three people behind him before they arrived at the town and said with a sigh.

  Now Feng Yang and Chen Xin are dead at his hands, leaving three people. The thorny mountain range has become a place of death for them, and going back is naturally the best choice, Wang Chen reminded.

  "Hmm, we'll set off back to Yuehua Gate tomorrow!" A man beside Wang Chen's left hand said with a bitter expression at this moment.

  The thorny mountain range has already frightened them.

  Feng Yang and Chen Xin have not returned until now, they can guess some of the results, mostly ominous! In a place like the Thorny Mountain Range, anything is possible. Now, all that's left for them is their last hope.

  If Feng Yang and Chen Xin still haven't returned by tomorrow, then the outcome is self-evident.

  "Are you Wang Chen?" At the same time, standing on the other side of Wang Chen, Xia Xue opened her big eyes, slightly tilted her head and asked softly.

  Looking at Wang Chen's eyes, there was an inexplicable strangeness and complexity. Wang Chen, was that really his name? This was what Xia Xue had learned from the mouths of those people who were killed by Wang Chen before.

  It seems that they have a vendetta and are still chasing Wang Chen! What's more, there are not a few people. Because Wang Chen said it very clearly, their companions will arrive at the scene soon.

  What kind of person is Wang Chen, and why did he offend those people? Why was he being pursued by so many people?

  A third-order Lingwu practitioner and two ninth-order Zhenwu practitioners! And there are even more companions, among these companions, there must be Lingwu practitioners too.

  Has he been on the run for these three months? Was it because of being pursued by these people that I saw him so wretched before?

  Upon hearing Xia Xue's words, Wang Chen furrowed his brow slightly: "If nothing's wrong, I'll take my leave first!"

  Nowadays he faces a bad situation, the fewer people know his identity, the safer he is.

  "Which sect are you a disciple of?" Seeing Wang Chen about to leave, Xia Xue showed a hint of anxiety and quickly followed up, then asked.

  At this moment, Xia Xue slightly pouted her mouth, giving people a lovely feeling.

  When Xia Xue caught up again and asked about this matter, Wang Chen didn't tense up, his face suddenly turned cold: "There is no sect!"

  "You... why didn't you tell me? Am I that detestable?" Xia Xue asked with a hint of grievance.

  Wang Chen, a young man of similar age to herself, made Xia Xue's emotions complicated at this moment.

  Just now, in the thorny mountain range, she was desperate and gave up. Wang Chen's appearance made her see hope and saved her from under the devil's claws.

  If it weren't for Wang Chen, she would have been a cold corpse by now. Without Wang Chen, she wouldn't be able to walk out of the thorny mountain range alive.

  The Tianxuan Continent, every girl has a dream! That is to find a man like the God of War when they grow up. Their own man steps on the floating cloud from the sky and descends, killing the bad guys and saving them when they are in danger.

  Heroes saving beauties is often the easiest way to win their hearts.

  Wasn't what Wang Chen did before like this? Any girl would be moved when facing such an excellent man. Especially Wang Chen, who can be considered handsome, with a knife-cut face, carrying some vicissitudes and coldness.

  People are often like this, the more they feel it's hard to get close, the more they want to get close! The colder the other person is, the easier it is to provoke that stubbornness in one's heart. Especially for a girl like Xia Xue.

  "I want to marry you!" Then, before Wang Chen could respond, Xia Xue said something that left both Wang Chen and her two senior brothers stunned.

  As soon as her words fell, Xia Xue took a step forward and seized Wang Chen's hand before he could react: "Marry me!"

  It wasn't until this moment that Wang Chen reacted, almost choking, and stared at Xia Xue in disbelief with a strange expression.

  The two Moon Gate men behind Xia Xue were at a loss for words at this time.

  This weird and wonderful junior sister is here again! Don't be fooled by Xia Xue's elegant appearance, that's just a phenomenon after arriving at the Thorny Mountain Range.

  At Yuehua Gate, she was notorious for being a mischievous spirit! She never did anything evil, but belonged to the cute and playful type. Even though they knew Xia Xue's personality, hearing her say this still left the two of them stunned and incredulous!

  "This joke isn't funny at all!" Hand in hand with Xia Xue, feeling the girl's smooth skin, Wang Chen sighed.

  "It's not a joke, I'm serious. Xia Xue never tells jokes!" At this moment, Xia Xue seemed to have completely shaken off the previous fright and returned to the coquettish appearance that Wang Chen had seen for the first time, slightly tilting her head and looking at Wang Chen with sparkling big eyes, innocently saying in a serious tone.

  "You..." This time, Wang Chen didn't know what to say. Such a direct and bold statement left Wang Chen unsure of how to respond.

  Xia Xue's firm gaze made Wang Chen feel uneasy: "If nothing's wrong, I'll leave first. It's very safe here, you should hurry back to Yuehua Gate!"

  "No way, I'm going with you! You don't have a sect, do you? Come with me to the Moon Flower Gate and I'll get Master to make you an inner disciple of the Moon Flower Gate! It's better than being an adventurer here!" Xia Xue said stubbornly.

  Listening to Xia Xue's words, Wang Chen felt a bit powerless and turned his head to look at the other two people in front of the Moon Flower Gate, revealing a pleading gaze.

  He really didn't know how to deal with a girl like Xia Xue. After all, Wang Chen was still a young man at this time.

  "Summer sister, I think... let's go in and find a place to settle down first!" Seeing Wang Chen's embarrassed expression, the two male disciples hesitated for a moment before walking up and looking at Xia Xue.

  "Come on, let's go together!" Xia Xue tightly grasped Wang Chen's arm and said to him.

  "I still have things to attend to!" Wang Chen directly refused.

  "I'll go with you! Xia Xue obviously had no intention of letting go."

  The two male disciples were at a loss whether to laugh or cry! They exchanged awkward glances, revealing a hint of bitter smile. Had their junior sister really done it this time? Looking at Wang Chen's eyes, which had become somewhat strange and envious.

  Xia Xue is a beauty, there's no doubt about that! Plus her lively and cheerful personality, she's well-known within the Moon Flower Gate, and the title of Moon Flower Gate's number one beauty isn't undeserved.

  "I can handle it myself!" Wang Chen explained weakly.

  "Then I'll be watching you!" Xia Xue continued to say innocently, her innocent expression making it impossible for anyone to get angry or refuse.
