Ji Ning suddenly dragged Blackbeard over a mile, instantly scaring the other high-ranking members of the Huoying tribe to jump in fright. They all dismounted their rides, trembling and kneeling down, shouting: "Young Master Ji Ning spare our lives!" "Young Master Ji Ning calm your anger!" "Master calm your anger ah!"

  The tribal warriors in the back who were not affected by the wave saw that the high-ranking officials had all knelt down, and naturally they also knelt down one after another. At this time, the wave also disappeared, and those tribal warriors who were knocked to the ground by the impact also knelt down in fear one after another.

  At this moment, a large number of people knelt down in unison, with only Ji Ning holding up the black-bearded man.

  "Slap." Ji Ning casually threw it out, causing the black-bearded man to roll on the ground twice.

  "Prince Ji Ning." The black-bearded man trembled with fear.

  "Dont you recognize me?" Ji Ning looked at him.

  The black-bearded man shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, Ive long heard of Master Ji Nings great name."

  "Then you still ordered the attack?" Ji Ning frowned.

  "I, I..." The black-bearded man was at a loss for words for a moment, which made Ji Ning even more puzzled. The leader in front of her obviously knew his own name and was also afraid of him, so why did he dare to give orders just now?

  Ji Ning asked: "I ask you, why did you attack the Black Tooth tribe?"

  The black-bearded man hesitated suddenly.

  Someone from the higher levels of the other tribes nearby immediately said, "Ji Ning Gongzi, this Hei Ya tribe is just a small tribe. Our Huo Yi tribe didnt want to come and attack at all! Its just that the tribal leader insisted on coming, and for the sake of a small tribe, we others didnt oppose it anymore."

  "This is just the will of one clan leader."

  "We all oppose it."

  "Half a month ago, the tribe leader also disregarded our opposition and forcibly took the warriors from within the tribe to wipe out another small tribe with only a few hundred people. He sold all the men, women, children and elderly of that small tribe as slaves to his good friend, Zhihui! Look, the one next to the tribe leader is Zhihui, the tribe leader trusts him very much!" A silver-haired old man in beast skin pointed at the young man with flowing hair beside Ji Ning.

  Whoosh!

  The young man with disheveled hair who was originally kneeling suddenly shot out a black light from his long sleeve, shooting towards Ji Ning who was within arms reach.

  "Clang!" Ji Nings body was clad in beast hides on the outside and had a magical treasure armor on the inside, naturally blocking this blow.

  "Hmph." Ji Ning looked at the long-haired youth, but found that the face of this long-haired youth suddenly began to turn black. At this time, several high-ranking officials from the Huoyi tribe who were kneeling on the side roared and grabbed the long-haired youths hands, wanting to capture him: "Dare to sneak attack the young master, you deserve to die."

  "Dont touch him!" Ji Ning shouted repeatedly.

  But the first to rush out was the Fire Wing tribes burly man, whose right hand had already touched the long-haired youths hand. In an instant, the dark energy from the long-haired youths hand was transmitted to the big mans right hand.

  "Hiss!" Ji Ning pointed with his finger, and a sword light flashed out, directly cutting off the right arm of that big man.

  Only to see the young man with disheveled hair lying softly on the ground, his entire skin was completely black, and the seven orifices had also flowed out black blood. The big man who had been beheaded by Ji Nings hand, his severed hand also flowed out black blood.

  "Poison!"

  The surrounding Fire Wing tribe people were shocked and retreated one after another.

  Ji Nings expression turned grave: "A highly potent poison."

  "Ah." The leader of the Fire Wing tribe, a black-bearded man, suddenly shouted, pointing at the corpse on the ground. "It was him, it was him! Ji Ning, hes the one who did everything. He just blew smoke in my face and I lost my mind. Although I knew everything, I treated this traitor as my master and listened to his every command. He told me what to do and I did it without hesitation. When I heard the young masters name earlier, it was him who ordered me to attack. I didnt dare offend the young master, but he gave an order and I immediately followed."

  The black-bearded man glared at the corpse on the ground: "It was just one puff of smoke."

  The high-ranking members of the surrounding tribes were shocked and amazed one by one.

  "What." Ji Ning was also startled.

  Some drugs that control people, only the Black Fire Sect has in the entire Yan Mountain. The most famous of the Black Fire Sect is the Sacred Flame Pill, as long as you eat the Sacred Flame Pill, you will be extremely loyal to the Black Fire Sect and not afraid of death! However, the Black Fire Sect has a lot of Sacred Flame Pills, its not just a puff of smoke.

  "Those who can refine this stuff are all very powerful wizards and alchemists." Ji Ning was secretly shocked, and immediately turned his head to look at the leader, "Tell me, what did this Zhi Yu come to you for?"

  "Buy slaves!" the black-bearded man said repeatedly, "He first bought two batches of slaves from us, with over 2,000 slaves! Then he controlled me and made me swallow some small tribes. He sold all the men, women, children and elderly people of these small tribes as slaves to him. He will arrange for someone to take them away."

  Ji Ning was perplexed, whats the point of buying so many slaves? Generally, tribes buy slaves just to use them as labor or servants, and its not easy to provide food for so many people either.

  "What about his men?" Ji Ning asked in a row, "Didnt you say that he sent his men to take away the slaves? So many male and female slaves, old and young, advancing slowly in front of the mountain forest, should have found their traces."

  "They can be found, they can be found." The black-bearded man nodded repeatedly. "Ten days ago, his subordinates took away that batch of slaves and headed east. Two days ago, my tribes hunting team saw that slave group too. I reckon in two days time, they wont have gone too far, and well find them soon."

  Ji Ning nodded.

  "Desolate and gloomy, autumn leaves." Ji Ning turned his head to look into the distance.

  Mo Wu and Autumn Leaf also rushed over together.

  "Gongzi." The two looked at Ji Ning.

  "I have something to attend to," said Ji Ning. "You first send a message to the nearest Black Armor Guard outpost, and let the 100 Black Armor Guards from that outpost escort you and Qing Shi to Wing Snake Lake. My father has also arranged for people to build accommodations on the other side of Wing Snake Lake, so you can temporarily stay on the island in the middle of the lake."

  "Yes." Mu Wu and Autumn Leaf both replied.

  "As for you." Ji Ning looked at the black-bearded man, "You immediately arrange for two people from the hunting team to escort me, I want to find that slave troop."

  "Yes, young master." The black-bearded man replied in succession, then shouted back, "San Dao, Ka Bu, come over here."

  ……

  Ji Ning brought two guides, all riding black qilin, day and night, swiftly pursuing, while that team was carrying hundreds of old and young people, naturally advancing much slower, a days progress of a hundred miles was already good.

  "Your Highness, there are obvious footprints here." A dark-skinned man with a braid said continuously, "The footprints are so clear, it should have been less than a day since they passed by. We will catch up soon."

  "Uh-huh." Ji Ning nodded.

  All the way tracking.

  Soon, a large group of scattered figures came into view. Men and women were all bound by their hands to a tree trunk, forming a line carrying the tree trunk. This way, if one person tried to escape, they would inevitably drag others along, making a big noise, and the slave escort team could easily spot them.

  "Hurry, hurry." The people in the escort team held whips and other weapons, occasionally lashing out with the whips. Some children were even tied to the saddles, with ten or eight children tied to one saddle. This could also speed up their progress.

  Each man and woman looked sorrowful, their eyes filled with a desperate gaze.

  Just half a month ago they were still living happily in their own tribe with their families, but now they are about to become slaves and be sent to an unknown place.

  "You two take these three black panthers back, and have your tribe arrange for someone to send them to the Winged Snake Lake." Ji Ning flipped his hand and took out two pieces of beast head gold. "Follow me on a run, and I wont treat you unfairly."

  "Thank you, young master." The two families were deeply grateful.

  Ji Ning nodded and immediately patted the black panther under him, he had been riding this black panther when he came out to make a name for himself, and after a long time, he couldnt bear to part with it.

  "You guys go ahead." Ji Ning dismounted the Black Wind Leopard and began to follow them alone, after all, this team was moving slowly, he didnt need to ride the Black Wind Leopard anymore.

  ……

  The slave convoy continued to advance in the mountains, and although they encountered some ferocious beasts along the way, the escort team was composed of formidable masters, almost all of whom were post-heavenly cultivators with three being post-heavenly divine body cultivators, easily beheading some ferocious beasts.

  "As expected, its strange." Ji Ning thought to herself, "Theyre buying slaves on a large scale and using some kind of medicine to control the tribal leaders to capture even more slaves. Even the escort teams have masters who have achieved post-heavenly perfection through demonic cultivation."

  "Hurry up!"

  "Hurry up."

  "Well be there soon." The people in the escort team also seemed a bit happy.

  Ji Ning quietly followed behind, this area already belonged to the border of Ji and Tie Mus territory, in front was a continuous mountain range.

  And this slave army was being driven towards those mountains.

  "Advance into the mountains." The troops continued to move forward.

  Ji Ning was behind, and just as he reached the foot of the mountain, what was originally a bright and sunny day suddenly changed dramatically. It was as if it had suddenly turned from daytime to nighttime, with everything around him shrouded in darkness. He could only vaguely make out some of the surrounding terrain, with wisps of black fog drifting through the air.

  Dark fog is pervasive, and gloomy atmosphere is dense.

  "Formation." Ji Ning immediately understood that he had entered the formation.

  "Hahahaha! Someones actually looking for death!" A piercing, evil laughter suddenly echoed around, "Human baby, your flesh must be very tender and delicious. Ill savor every bite of you slowly."

  Ji Ning stood in place, gazing out at the endless black fog that surrounded him, barely able to see three zhang away, and beyond that, nothing was visible. In his hands appeared two Northern Frost Swords.
