Chapter 5652 Surrounded

At the foot of Daqing Mountain.

At this moment, a group of people have gathered.

This group of people came from the Zhao family.

Among them, the leader was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face, wearing a luxurious brocade robe, his eyes fell on Daqing Mountain, and there was an unconcealed worry in his eyes.

This middle-aged man was none other than Zhao Yi's father, Zhao Qin.

As the head of the family, Zhao Qin was naturally very clear about how complicated the situation in Devil Ridge was. Therefore, after he learned that his son had lured Lin Huantian into Devil Ridge, he rushed here with his men as soon as possible.

In theory, he should not have mobilized so many troops, because if he did so, the news would be leaked, and then the people of the Lin family would definitely receive the news.

At that time, the situation would become much more complicated.

However, when he thought of Zhao Yi's comfort, he couldn't help it and had to bring people here as soon as possible.

At this moment, he regretted it very much in his heart. If he had known earlier, he should not have let Zhao Yi be responsible for dealing with Lin Huantian.

However, it was Zhao Yi who took the initiative to help share the family affairs, so someone suggested that Zhao Yi kill Lin Huantian. After all, the two of them had always disliked each other. Secondly, Lin Huantian was the genius of the Lin family. If Zhao Yi could kill Lin Huantian successfully, it would also enhance Zhao Yi's confidence, especially his confidence in the road of martial arts.

So, in the end, he agreed to Zhao Yi to kill Lin Huantian.

However, he never thought that Zhao Yi would take such a risk to deal with Lin Huantian and actually choose the battlefield in Demon Ridge. Perhaps others did not know the situation of Demon Ridge, but Zhao Qin knew very well that there was soul-driving fog in Demon Ridge.

It was a black fog that could make countless people despair.

Not to mention that Zhao Yi was just a warrior of human quality, even if a warrior of time and place quality encountered soul-driving fog, it would be impossible for him to survive.

When Zhao Qin thought of the soul-driving fog in the Devil Ridge, his heart tightened. He looked at the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion with a cold face: "Yier, how long have you been in the Devil Ridge?"

Zhao Dadi shuddered all over and said tremblingly: "Master, Master Zhao Yi has been in the Devil Ridge for an hour. Don't worry, before Master Zhao Yi set out, I told him that he must not stay in the Devil Ridge for more than two hours. In addition, I also told him that he must not go deep into the Devil Ridge. I also told him about the soul-driving fog in the Devil Ridge."

Zhao Qin was slightly relieved when he heard this.

Based on his understanding of Zhao Dadi, this dog slave would never dare to deceive himself.

However, what Zhao Qin never expected was that Zhao Dadi did not deceive himself, but his son, Zhao Yi, did not take Zhao Dadi's words to heart at all.

If Zhao Yi could listen to Zhao Dadi's advice, he would not be so confident to lure Lin Huantian to the depths of the Devil Ridge.

If they hadn't entered the depths of the Devil Ridge, they wouldn't have attracted Su Chen's attention.

However, in Zhao Yi's opinion, if he wanted to kill Lin Huantian successfully, he had to go deep into the Devil Ridge. Otherwise, if Lin Huantian ran away, it would be a big mess.

His caution was right.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect that there was a person like Su Chen in the depths of the Devil Ridge.

Moreover, the reason why he was sure of killing Lin Huantian was not entirely due to his own strength, but because he thought that inviting the Ghost Swordsman would be foolproof.

But in the end, he was wrong, very wrong.

In Su Chen's eyes, the fight between Zhao Yi and Lin Huantian was completely a fight between people of the same age. How could he let someone who didn't belong to their age get involved!

So, the moment he appeared, the Ghost Swordsman died.

The Ghost Swordsman's strength was not bad, reaching the level of the Earth Grade, but in Su Chen's eyes, the so-called Earth Grade, in his eyes, was just a finger that could be crushed.

Therefore, the Ghost Swordsman was not even qualified to see Su Chen.

After arriving at Daqing Mountain, Zhao Qin did not stop, but rushed to the Demon Ridge without stopping: "Hurry up..."

Zhao Dadi and the others did not dare to complain. Even though they were very tired, they still followed Zhao Qin's pace.

This is not their fault. Along the way, they almost used the martial arts spirit in their bodies to travel. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such a fast speed.

And their cultivation is a world apart from Zhao Qin.

Zhao Qin is a heaven-grade warrior, who is many levels higher than them. Zhao Qin has a constant supply of martial arts spirit in his body. No matter how it is consumed, it can be replenished in the shortest time.

But they can't do it. Most of their guards are just human-grade warriors, and only Zhao Dadi has reached the earth-grade level.

It is actually very difficult to enter the martial arts level. Most ordinary people, after working hard all their lives, cannot step into the ranks of martial arts level.

The benefits these Zhao family guards have gained in the Zhao Mansion are beyond the imagination of many people, which is why they are willing to stay in the Zhao family and let Zhao Qin drive them.

The reason why Zhao Dadi was able to enter the earth-level ranks was not because of his good talent. In fact, the end of his cultivation was only the entry-level rank. However, during the years when he was the housekeeper of the Zhao family, he had embezzled a lot of money, so he had the opportunity to use his financial resources to exchange for some elixirs that could help him break through the human character.

He also relied on these pills to successfully advance to the Earth Grade.

Did Zhao Qin know about what Zhao Dadi did? Of course he knew part of it, but in Zhao Qin's opinion, as long as Zhao Dadi was still a loyal and obedient dog of the Zhao family, no matter what he did, as long as he was obedient, then he would turn a blind eye.

For example, this time, when Zhao Yi proposed to kill Lin Huantian in Devil Ridge, Zhao Dadi must have known about it, but Zhao Dadi did not stop him. On the contrary, he thought Zhao Yi's method was very good, even including the killer Ghost Swordsman invited by Zhao Yi, who was also introduced by Zhao Dadi.

Zhao Dadi introduced Ghost Swordsman to Zhao Yi. On the one hand, he really wanted to help Zhao Yi solve the trouble of Lin Huantian, and on the other hand, he also wanted to collect benefits from Ghost Swordsman.

After all, this time, Zhao Yi offered a very generous reward to kill Lin Huantian. Ghost Swordsman accepted this task, and after completing it, he would naturally get the corresponding reward.

Part of this generous reward will go into the pocket of Zhao Dadi.

Zhao Dadi's income over the years was entirely from various private pockets to collect the Heaven and Earth Spirit Pills that he needed to consume when he was promoted to a Earth-grade warrior.
