Chapter 1362: Chapter 1342: Beauty, You Have No Idea How Dangerous the Deep Mountains Are!
"Alright, let’s prepare and head inside first!"
After Ye Huan spoke, he put down the suitcase.
The suitcase was quite heavy, and carrying it would greatly affect combat and movement efficiency, and it would be a big target, increasing the risk of exposure.
So, he tore off a purple deep V gauze dress and two pairs of black lace stockings that belonged to the Empress from the suitcase.
He tore the gauze dress into a standard large square, laid it on the ground, and placed his and the Empress’s daily laundry inside. He then made simple alterations to the resilient lace ultra-thin black stockings, using them as rope and straps, threading them through the four small holes he made at the corners of the gauze dress and tied an extremely complex knot.
He was making a bundle!
Seeing this, everyone realized that Ye Huan intended to enter the deep mountains without joining the group led by the snake head?
For a moment, many people sneered!
"Brother, you’re truly clueless. Boss Wang spent so much effort explaining the situation inside the mountains to you, yet you still plan to go alone? Should I say you’re overestimating yourself or adorably foolish?"
"Tch, this kid must be a naive fool who’s never seen the world. Anyone with the slightest knowledge of the Endless Deep Mountains would never make such a foolish decision. Even after hearing from Boss Wang, he plans to enter the mountains alone to save money. It’s hilarious!"
"If you’re really broke, just don’t go into the mountains. Otherwise, if you run into the Guardians, you’ll be in big trouble!"
The other people along the winding path mocked Ye Huan, thinking he was a big fool.
In fact, it wasn’t entirely their fault for thinking this way.
None of these people had any Ancient Martial strength; they were local tycoons from small towns and villages outside the Endless Deep Mountains.
They wanted to enter the mountains to make money, big money!
The Endless Deep Mountains is the only place left in Huaxia where the ecosystem is preserved exactly as it was ten thousand years ago, a place teeming with spiritual energy, where many precious fruits, herbs, and animals extinct in the outside world can be found.
And once found, there would be a large supply.
As long as they entered the mountains and picked those things, they would sell like hotcakes to eager buyers outside!
There’s no worry about selling, as the profit from selling those things far exceeds the cost of joining the group!
These people became well-known local tycoons precisely because they frequently entered the Endless Deep Mountains to collect those goods.
Generally speaking, their attempts to enter the mountains succeeded once or twice out of fifty times!
Therefore, they were very aware of how powerful and terrifying the Guardians were!
Under Wang Dahai, there were frequently Celestial God Level experts who fell to the Guardians due to misjudging their strikes.
It’s said that a few years ago, an Initial-Tier Divine King was also killed by the Guardians!
The formidable strength of the Guardians is clear to see from this.
That’s why they thought Ye Huan was insane to attempt entering the Endless Deep Mountains alone.
Huang Lin laughed mockingly as well, crossing his arms, gazing at Ye Huan with ridicule.
He felt his great vengeance was about to be fulfilled.
However, it wouldn’t be fulfilled by his own hands!
It would be the Guardians who helped him!
The Guardians, trained long-term by six Half-Step Martial Saints, had become the most terrifyingly experienced group in the Huaxia Ancient Martial Artist community!
To break through their blockade and enter the deep mountains alone, one would need combat prowess on par with the top-tier High-Level Divine Kings, or it would be like handing one’s head to the Guardians!
The Ancient Martial Artists from the major ancient Martial Clans sneaking out of the mountains had to obediently pay to join Wang Dahai’s group if they wanted to return home; otherwise, there was no way back. This had become the unspoken rule for entering the mountains!
"Ye Huan, this boy, trying to deal with the Guardians alone, must think he’s lived too long!" Huang Lin thought of this with a more ridiculing expression, picturing in his mind the scenes where the Guardians captured Ye Huan and scattered his ashes. He felt a sudden surge of satisfaction, as if the grudge had entirely dissipated.
Even though everyone present despised Ye Huan, they all felt a bit anxious.
The love of beauty is universal.
The woman beside this masked young man wearing a mask and sunglasses was of an unbelievably top-tier type, her figure surpassing even the top female stars.
Though her face was covered with a veil, a woman with such a stunning and sexy figure couldn’t have an unattractive face, right?
Without a doubt, she had to be an incredibly beautiful woman!
They didn’t want to see such an exquisite beauty destroyed by the Guardians.
"Let’s go!" At this moment, Ye Huan finished preparing the bundle, tossed the silver suitcase aside, and spoke to the Empress.
The Empress nodded and was about to leave with Ye Huan.
The people nearby began to persuade her hastily:
"Hey, beauty, think it over; don’t risk your life with this reckless kid!"
"Yeah, beauty, you have no idea how dangerous the deep mountains are, nor how strong the Guardian forces are. If you rashly go with that kid, you’ll definitely end up like a beaten dog, thrown out of the mountains!"
"Besides, you’re so beautiful and have such a voluptuous figure—what if the Guardians, in beating you, suddenly have evil intentions and do something bad to you? Although the Guardians generally have high standards, they’re all men, and no one is immune to lust. What if they suddenly act like wolves and do something to you? By then, it’ll be too late to cry!"
"Paying to join us into the mountains is the wisest choice you should make! This way, you’ll have a higher chance of entering the mountains; otherwise, following that kid, your chance of success is 0%!"
Everyone earnestly advised the Empress, unwilling to see such an exquisite beauty perish untimely.
Huang Lin, who had an eye for beauty, harshly eyed the Empress’s beautiful legs, his eyes filled with desire. He stepped forward and enthusiastically pounded his chest, "Miss Empress, if you think it’s too expensive, I can pay the fifty million for you!"
Clearly, he intended to pursue the Empress.
Unfortunately, the Empress wasn’t interested in him at all!
"Let’s go, Brother Ye!" the Empress said.
"Let’s go!"
Ye Huan grabbed the Empress’s hand, remaining on high alert, and they ran towards the depths of the mountains together!
"Foolish woman with no sense!"
Seeing the Empress ignore their advice, everyone cursed angrily.
Huang Lin snorted angrily, his expression equally unpleasant.
"Not joining my team? You’ll regret it later, you pair of fools!" Wang Dahai cursed inwardly, hoping Ye Huan would run into a large group of Guardians as soon as he entered the mountains and get beaten to a pulp!
Afterward, everyone paid their team joining fee to Wang Dahai.
After collecting the money, Wang Dahai immediately began allocating teams based on the fees!
Most people, including Huang Lin, paid fifty million to join the SSS-level team!
This was the safest option, with the highest probability of successfully entering the mountains!
The rest, whose finances were insufficient, chose to pay thirty million to join the S-level team!
No one chose the A-level or B-level teams, because those teams included very few strong members, with the probability of entering the mountains almost as low as Ye Huan and the Empress’s chances, practically 0%. Joining would be wasting money.
Before long, under Wang Dahai’s instructions, the SSS and S-level teams were positioned about ten miles apart, with team members led by partnered experts blasting into Huaxia’s Endless Deep Mountains!
