Chapter 3817: 4.1417 Breaking the Formation?

The young woman's face was delicate and gentle. As her eyes swept around, she felt like a feather, softly brushing across everyone's hearts.

Especially the tear mole at the corner of her eye, it perfectly accentuated her gentle demeanor.

She was truly a naturally alluring beauty.

The blatant gazes of a few mercenaries angered Lin Zhen'er, and she roared at a few members of the Shi Lang mercenary group, "Are your eyes blind?! How dare you look at our junior sister like that? Do you know who she is? She is the daughter of our Shadow City's great city lord, Mu Jinghong!"

"The Fourth Miss, Mu Xiaoxue."

The mercenaries immediately retracted their ill-intentioned gazes.

Shadow City! That was a truly formidable power that no one dared to provoke.

A reclusive, powerful sect beyond the three states, with countless experts. Who would dare to provoke them casually?

Moreover, it was said that their great city lord, Mu Jinghong, was a very unreasonable and fiercely protective parent.

People from such a large sect each had a life lamp. If their life lamp went out, Mu Jinghong would naturally receive the information.

Then, they could only wait for misfortune. Those who dared to challenge Shadow City would eventually be hunted down by countless experts sent by Shadow City until they were annihilated.

At this thought, those audacious mercenaries couldn't help but shiver and quickly withdrew their gazes.

"Hmph," Lin Zhen'er smiled triumphantly.

Mu Xiaoxue, on the other hand, spoke gently, "My sincere apologies, everyone. My senior sister has a fiery temper, but she only meant to protect me, not to intentionally target you all."

"May I ask why everyone is blocked here? We wish to go deeper into the forest to gather some medicinal herbs. Is it impossible to pass now?"

Mu Xiaoxue was beautiful and spoke very politely. Combined with her soft, gentle voice, the surrounding mercenaries felt quite comfortable, and some even eagerly explained to her what was happening here.

After listening, Lin Zhen'er frowned and turned to Zhao Yi and Qi Fa, saying, "Two senior brothers, what should we do now?"

Their purpose for this trip was to collect phoenix flowers.

Xiaoxue was worried about them, fearing they wouldn't be able to distinguish the true phoenix flowers, so she came along. The journey had been quite arduous, and they didn't want to recall their experiences at Ox Head Mountain.

Unexpectedly, after finally reaching Phoenix Wood Forest, their path was blocked by some broken formation, preventing them from proceeding.

Mu Xiaoxue was also very anxious. The map indicating the phoenix flowers clearly showed that they had to pass through this spot to move forward.

If they remained blocked here, what was she to do?

"Perhaps everyone should listen to my suggestion," Shi Lang's eyes darted around, and he said with a smile, "Since there are so many of us here, there's no reason we can't even break a small formation."

"How about this: each of our teams sends out three of their strongest members, and they work together to shatter this formation? What do you all think?"

"That's a very fair method," Wang Kuang, embracing his woman, smiled and waved his large hand, pointing out the three strongest mercenaries from his team.

Thus, each team present sent out three members. With a whoosh, over twenty people stepped forward and lined up against the formation's shielding barrier.

Simultaneously, they gathered their power and launched a punch.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom!" A massive tremor echoed throughout the entire Phoenix Wood Forest.
