The danger from the Deathly Forest was extremely high and not comparable to the Spirit Forest that could be considered a playground by cultivators who were currently one group with Jian Chen.

However, Jian Chen knew very well for sure, the more dangerous the place was, the more chances he would be able to obtain that made him excited to enter the Deathly Forest.

“Ayo departing!” Yan Zhong shouted and he immediately jumped towards one tree and onto another.

The subordinates of Yan Zhong were all directly following from behind.

“Xiao Yu, let's go. Probably many good opportunities that we will get in the Deathly Forest.” Jian Chen said and immediately moved following Yan Zhong.

Xiao Yu simply nodded following without commenting as he naturally knew that the Deathly Forest was a suitable place for them to increase their strength at their current level.

The group led by Yan Zhong continued to move, the day was approaching the afternoon and their distance to the Deathly Forest was already very close. There were no obstacles at all on the way because on animals did not dare to provoke a Group filled by high level cultivators.

“We are almost there. All around here was a small town that was almost abandoned. It is certain that the place must have been occupied by cultivators from the Yan Kingdom and some other powers.” Inner Yan Zhong and thought about whether they should come to the city. He naturally understood that if the cultivators of the Yan Kingdom knew of their existence, a fight would be unavoidable because earlier when Yan Shi was exiled from the Yan Kingdom, the battle would be unavoidable, The current king had warned that if Yan Shi and his subordinates were to be seen, then they would hunt him down.

This was an order received by all the soldiers from the Yan Kingdom. However, no one knew where Yan Shi and all of his subordinates were exiled, otherwise, they would hunt him down because the head of Yan Shi and all of his subordinates had a price.

This was what Yan Zhong was thinking at the moment. He would not sacrifice any of his subordinates because they lacked the current manpower. He immediately thought of Jian Chen and Xiao Yu. He was well aware that Jian Chen and Xiao Yu could not simply be given an Order. But he had to give it a try, he just needed to talk in the right way so that the two would go to the small town to see the situation in that place.

Yan Zhong immediately stopped as he had moved to lead the group an hour later. It was like he was staring at all the places. He immediately turned around and saw all his subordinates who were a little exhausted from moving nonstop.

“We will rest here and in the morning, we will directly enter the Forest of Death!” Yan Zhong's Order.

“Good!” Without being given any other orders, many of them instantly moved in different directions to monitor the situation at a distance of about thirty meters. This was a custom that Yan Zhong instilled into all his subordinates when they were going somewhere.

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu who were not exhausted in the slightest were just sitting on one of the tree branches. Both of them did not care whether to rest this time or continue on.

The resilience of Jian Chen and Xiao Yu's bodies was certainly noticed by Yan Zhong which made him slightly amazed by the two young cultivators. He wanted to know what kind of training the two were doing so that they reached such a level at such a young age.

Without wasting any time, Yan Zhong moved towards the two. When he stood beside the two, he immediately spoke, “I want to give the mission to the both of you. Are you interested?”

“Hm? What kind of mission is that? You must understand how Yan Shi hired us.” Reply Jian Chen.

“Yes, I get it. When the resources we get have a very large amount and anything that appears in the middle of the Deathly Forest, I will give an addition to you two if you successfully complete the mission.” Reply Yan Zhong.

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu stared at each other. To Xiao Yu, he did not understand what Yan Zhong's true purpose was. As for Jian Chen, when he took a quick glance at the situation of Yan Zhong's subordinates, he immediately knew why Yan Zhong had sent them.

However, Jian Chen was still trying to listen to what mission Yan Zhong was going to say.

Seeing Jian Chen and Xiao Yu silent, Yan Zhong again spoke, “This mission is very simple. I want you to find information about anyone who will enter the Deathly Forest in the city about 15-20 km from here.”

“The city has been abandoned even though there are still many residents living there. Despite being neglected, they are all very strong and do not do anything careless. If you manage to get information, come back immediately and if it is too late to return to this place, enter the Forest of Death and we will meet there.” Yan Zhong spoke in a patient tone.

“Good, we will try it.” Jian Chen nodded then stood up and Xiao Yu also did not mind at all.

“Good, if so, be careful.” Yan Zhong said then pointed to a certain direction where the city is located.

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu nodded then both of them immediately moved in the direction pointed at by Yan Zhong.

Gazing at the departure of the two, Yan Zhong was still wondering why neither of them were trying to negotiate nor ask about any other specifics or perhaps argue a little with him.

“It seems that I should be wary of those two boys! If they have other thoughts and or maybe both come from certain powers that exist, when meeting I will finish him.” Inner Yan Zhong. He would not believe it just like that with Jian Chen and Xiao Yu since both of them were outsiders. Ever since the betrayal of Yan Shi's father, Yan Zhong had always been cautious of anyone.

**

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu continued to move. Not until an hour later, the two of them had even closed in on the direction of the city that Yan Zhong had said.

The two stopped at a tree then gazed towards the small town that looked very worn out, but there were very many great powers present inside.

Looking at the city gate, Jian Chen was speechless as the city was named in a strange way.

“Texas City?” Xiao Yu muttered in a surprised tone as the name was very strange to him.

While Jian Chen, his lips twitched slightly as he did not expect that there would be a Texas town on the island of Lizawa because on the map, the city was completely unrecorded.

“Let's go inside there.” Jian Chen immediately jumped up and walked slowly towards the city nearly twenty meters away from him. He stared at the city gate which was just a pole and there was a board that almost fell from the top pole that read Texas City.

When Jian Chen and Xiao Yu walked towards the city gate, the two narrowed because even before reaching the city gate, there were some figures who instantly watched over their existence.

“This is indeed the real city of Texas.” Inner Jian Chen.
