Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Goodbye
Early the next morning, Ye Chen and his group were already out of the door.
As soon as they opened the door, they saw a graceful figure standing at the entrance.
It was Profound Maiden.
Profound Maiden wore a light blue long dress, perfectly complementing her delicate face.
Seeing Ye Chen coming out, Profound Maiden greeted him with a smile.
Beside her, Hong Ye urgently summoned her pet and shouted, "Junior Brother Ye Chen, be careful!"
She was about to order the Extreme Flame Demon to act.
Ye Chen quickly said, "Senior Brother Hong Ye, no no no, this is my friend, Profound Maiden!"
"Ah! Your friend?" Hong Ye was momentarily stunned.
Profound Maiden had now reached Level 42, while the last time she was only Level 35.
Although no one knows exactly how much experience or growth is needed for monsters to level up, Profound Maiden’s speed of leveling is undeniably fast.
Profound Maiden smiled and said, "This place is really hard to find. If it weren’t for my Spirit Communication Race’s strong sense abilities, I would’ve gone to the wrong place."
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "Sorry, I didn’t make it clear to you."
"It’s okay."
Profound Maiden glanced at Jia Mu, with a hint of surprise in her eyes, which then turned into a meaningful smile.
Jia Mu, seeing Profound Maiden looking at her in such a way, instinctively took two steps back, hiding behind Ye Chen.
Hong Ye looked at Ye Chen with even more admiration.
"Junior Brother, you’re amazing. You have so many monster connections, and each one is prettier than the last. It’s incredible."
Ye Chen took out the Water Wood Bead and handed it to Profound Maiden. "Here, this thing helps with Wood Attributes. Keep it."
"Oh? Water Wood Bead, a good item, thanks."
Profound Maiden was not polite and took the Water Wood Bead from Ye Chen’s hand, consuming it immediately.
Now the team has expanded to five members.
With the addition of Profound Maiden, the team’s strength increased by several degrees.
The five continued to move forward.
Gradually, they discovered traces of someone having passed by.
"Ye Chen, look here," Zhang Zheng pointed to a spot on the ground.
In a corner, there was a pile of chopstick-like items thrown there.
Now, within the team, Ye Chen has become the centerpiece, and for any matters, they call on Ye Chen to make decisions.
Ye Chen glanced at it and nodded, "It seems we’re getting closer to them."
"Should we keep following them?"
Ye Chen thought for a moment, looked at the fork in the road ahead, and said, "Let’s go with the flow."
With that, Ye Chen chose a path and went in.
The other four followed.
Zhang Zheng glanced at his phone, smiling wryly, "Meng Fan is calling me again, what should I do?"
"Send him our location and tell him we’ve gone to the neighboring path."
Zhang Zheng rolled his eyes but did as he was told.
Ye Chen looked at the map and found that less of the Land of Extreme Ice and Snow had been illuminated.
Less than half of the Thousand Stars Forest.
"Ye Chen," Profound Maiden suddenly frowned and called Ye Chen’s name.
"What’s wrong?"
Profound Maiden looked ahead and slightly frowned, "There’s movement ahead."
Profound Maiden’s hearing was exceptionally strong, capable of hearing sounds from a great distance.
This was also why Ye Chen asked Profound Maiden to accompany him.
"Hmm? Movement? What kind of movement?"
"Sounds of battle, very intense!"
The group was momentarily stunned.
It seems they have walked onto the same path as Xiang Yin and the others.
"Let’s go and take a look."
The five quickened their pace, rapidly advancing forward.
The road became narrower and narrower. After walking for ten minutes, it was only wide enough for three people to walk side by side.
A cave entrance gradually appeared ahead; the five emerged from the cave to see the view ahead suddenly open up.
They found themselves back on the snowfield.
Clearly, they had left the Underworld.
They were currently amid a mountain range.
The sounds of fighting were very close, seemingly just a hundred meters ahead.
"No way, we can hear the sounds this clearly, yet why can’t we see anyone?" Zhang Zheng frowned, a puzzled look in her beautiful eyes.
"There!"
Profound Maiden pointed at the mountain wall ahead.
An invisible air blade shot forward, creating an opening in the mountain wall.
Inside, suddenly, appeared over a hundred figures.
"Go!"
The five quickly moved towards the cave.
This cave seemed to be an ice world, with layers of crystal-clear ice covering the entire cave, from the ceiling to the walls, and even the ground, all had thick ice layers.
Xiang Yin and his group were in a fierce battle with a horde of monsters.
"No, these monsters are too strong, I can’t beat them!"
A rough glance showed that there were sixty-five monsters that Xiang Yin’s group was fighting against, while they only had fifty-five people.
All the monsters were between Levels 41 to 51, sixty Elite-level monsters, and five Lord-level monsters.
The difference in combat power between the two sides was significant.
Xiang Yin looked at the numerous monsters and his already injured teammates, feeling a surge of regret.
"It’s all my fault! It’s all my fault! If I hadn’t led the wrong way, we wouldn’t have ended up like this!"
Regret weighed heavily on Xiang Yin’s mind.
"Am I going to end up here today?"
Someone showed a look of despair.
Regardless, they had all come together, and Ye Chen couldn’t just ignore them without feeling something.
"Let’s go! Jia Mu, Profound Maiden, it’s up to you!"
After speaking, Ye Chen had already wielded the Thunder Shocking Blade in his hand.
Dark Princess Blood Asura, along with Genggeng, were summoned simultaneously.
Ye Chen took a look at the strongest among the monsters, Geli.
Level 51, Lord-level monster, clearly the strongest combat power among the monsters was him.
"Genggeng, you go and hold him off!"
Ye Chen said to Genggeng, pointing at Geli.
"Okay!"
Genggeng was never one to fear, and she would do whatever Ye Chen asked of her, even if it meant taking on Tower Mother from yesterday, she wouldn’t back down.
Genggeng ran up to Geli and shouted, "You idiot! Take this punch from this girl!"
Geli was pressing down on a Level 43 pet and, seeing Genggeng, showed a disdainful expression.
This pet belonged to the Three-Refinement Army’s Qian Yi.
It had already suffered severe injuries.
Genggeng said to Qian Yi’s pet, "You, step back, leave this to me!"
Qian Yi’s pet gave Genggeng a suspicious look but eventually nodded and retreated to the side.
Qian Yi finally felt relieved.
He clasped his hands to Ye Chen in thanks.
Jia Mu stepped forward and said, "Brother Ye Chen, let me help them recover some blood volume."
Ye Chen looked at Jia Mu in surprise but nodded.
"Holy Wood Tier Two, Rebirth of All Things!"
Jia Mu’s body glowed with a green light, giving off a very soothing sensation.
Instantly, the green light transformed into countless green light spots flying forward.
The spots floated to each pet, gently landing.
As the light dots merged into the pet’s body,
Blood volume instantly experienced a tremendous recovery!
