C1924 Struggle
Very quickly, Meng Yun and Meng Li returned to the place where Lin Long used to be. Lin Long, who was following closely behind them, saw from afar that there were clearly three more people surrounding them.
Taking a few steps forward, Lin Long saw clearly where the few people were standing and his expression immediately became ugly, because the three people were clearly at the entrance of the ancient ruins.
Furthermore, the three of them had clearly sensed the aura of the ancient ruins, so they had been searching for it. Based on this situation, the three of them would very quickly discover the entrance to the ancient ruins.
Meng Yun and Zhang Lu also saw this, so they immediately rushed towards the three people.
Lin Long followed closely behind the two of them.
Very quickly, Meng Yun and Meng Li arrived in front of the three people. Seeing these three people, Meng Yun couldn't help but frown. He turned his head to look at Zhang Lu, his gaze clearly showing his dissatisfaction and confusion.
The reason for this was because one of the three people in front of him clearly had Silver rank strength.
Knowing why Meng Yun was like this, Zhang Lu hurriedly said, "Senior apprentice brother Meng, just now, senior apprentice brother Mo and co. were not here!"
The senior apprentice brother Mo he mentioned was the one with Silver rank strength in front of them.
"That's right, I wasn't here just now." Senior apprentice brother Mo said, "There was someone else who was here first, but he was chased away by the three of us."
Hearing senior apprentice brother Mo's words, Meng Yun and Han Ying naturally understood.
Senior apprentice brother Mo asked doubtfully, "From what you've said, you guys came here before, but why did you come back after leaving?"
At this time, he was naturally very depressed. If the Meng Yun duo didn't come, then the things inside the ancient ruins would definitely be his.
Who would have thought that these two would appear at such a crucial moment?
"We went after someone just now and didn't catch up, so we came back." Meng Yun said with a frown.
Meng Yun was naturally depressed as well, because if it wasn't for Mo Kai, the things inside would have been his.
Mo Kai laughed, "Since we came here together, it could be considered fate. Later on, we can rely on our strength to obtain the fragments that might be contained within."
"Alright." Meng Yun said without hesitation.
Immediately, the group began to search the area. Very soon, one of them opened the entrance.
With a "kacha" sound, the person below opened an entrance, revealing a flight of stairs leading downwards.
When they saw the staircase, they all rushed in, regardless of whether there was any danger.
Lin Long naturally followed suit and rushed in, since the situation inside was more or less the same as before, the box with the broken part was just outside, whoever went in first would get the upper hand, and if he came in late, the box would probably be taken away.
Below was a stone room, which was obviously even larger than the one Lin Long saw before. There wasn't anything unnecessary within the room, it only had a stone table, and on the stone table, there was a black box with no words written on it.
Obviously, it was a box with fragments inside.
The five people in front were naturally the first to charge in, while the person on senior apprentice brother Mo's side was the first to rush towards the stone platform.
However, just as he was about to grab the box, the sword qi from the cloud attack had already arrived behind him.
"Ahh ?"
After the scream, the person was sent flying. After falling to the ground, he lost consciousness and died.
At this time, Mo Kai happened to be on the other side, so he didn't seize the opportunity to attack Meng Yun.
For a time, the four of them stood in a stalemate. None of them dared to take a step forward, because once they did, they would inevitably be attacked.
Mo Kai was naturally furious at this moment. If he had not rushed down in the wrong direction and taken the opportunity to attack Meng Yun, this box would have been his.
"Meng Yun, you're so ruthless. You actually did this to your junior brother!" Mo Kai said coldly.
"Same here ?" Just now, Mo Kai, if you didn't use a ruthless method to force those few people who came here first away, how could the three of you monopolize this ancient ruin? " Meng Yun said calmly.
"Humph!" Mo Kai coldly snorted.
"Mo Kai, let's not fight any longer. Should we chase away the others?" At this time, Meng Yun said.
"Alright." Mo Kai said.
As he said this, the two of them turned their gazes towards the entrance. There stood a person.
They could feel it from the very start, but because their attention was on each other, they did not have the time to pay attention to it.
When they saw this person, they could not help but frown. That was because this person was covered by a mask. It was impossible for them to tell who it was.
To their relief, their opponent seemed to only have the strength of an iron sword, because he had a rune iron sword hanging from his waist.
This person was naturally Lin Long. The reason he had covered his face was because he did not want Meng Yun to be even more hostile towards him.
"Brat, I don't care who you are, get the hell out of here right now. Otherwise, we don't mind killing you!" Mo Kai said coldly.
"That's right, get lost now or we'll kill you immediately!" Meng Yun also said coldly.
"I'm sorry, I won't leave until I have the box." Lin Long smiled indifferently.
"Hahaha ?"
Hearing Lin Long's words, Meng Yun, Mo Kai and the rest could not help but burst out laughing.
"Tsk tsk. Boy, you're quite funny. Do you think you have a chance to snatch this box from the hands of the four of us?" Meng Yun mocked.
If the four of them were fighting now, the other side would probably have a chance. However, since they were all going out together, how could the other side have a chance?
"Are you sure you're not leaving?" Seeing that Lin Long had no intention to leave, Mo Kai sneered.
"Brat, you're quite bold to actually dare to oppose us." After saying that, Meng Yun looked at Mo Kai and said, "Mo Kai, there's someone coming out from your side, while there's someone from my side, how about we chase this kid away first?"
At this time, it would naturally be better for the two of them to go up and deal with Lin Long. However, he was afraid that would use this opportunity to rush forward and snatch the box from him.
Mo Kai was also worried about this, so he immediately nodded, "Alright!"
After saying that, the two of them turned to the person beside them and said, "Go out and deal with that brat."
Immediately, Zhang Lu and another person stood up. Zhang Lu was very unwilling, but at this moment, he did not dare to say no.
Following that, the two of them walked towards Lin Long.
"Brat, let us teach you a lesson. We will let you know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is!" Another person said as he walked.
Seeing the two approaching him, Lin Long could not help but frown. Although he was stronger than the two of them by himself, it would be dangerous for him to be entangled by them at a time like this.
However, he had already planned this beforehand. He pointed at the stone box and shouted, "Did someone take that box away?"
Although they did not believe Lin Long's words, Meng Yun and the other three still turned their heads towards the stone platform. Looking over, their faces immediately became gloomy, because the stone platform was empty.
"Brat, looks like you're really courting death!" Meng Yun couldn't help but shout in anger.
Zhang Lu and Wang DeCheng walked over quickly.
At this moment, Meng Yun suddenly felt a shadow flash past his body. He quickly looked towards the stone platform and his expression changed when he saw it. A black monkey had already jumped onto the stone platform and grabbed the box.
Mo Kai immediately shifted his gaze towards the black monkey.
"Bastard, quickly put that box down, or else I'll kill you!" Meng Yun looked at the black monkey and said angrily.
The two of them didn't look at Lin Long anymore. They were worried that the black monkey would run away.
To their relief, the black monkey wasn't that strong. It only had the strength of a bronze sword.
If not for the fact that he was afraid of Mo Kai, Meng Yun would have already made his move. Of course, Mo Kai was also afraid of Meng Yun.
Seeing this, Zhang Lu and the other person also stopped and turned their heads over as well.
"Meng Yun, let's kill this monkey first!" Mo Kai frowned.
"Alright." Mo Kai nodded.
The two of them immediately took out their silver swords.
Just when the two of them were about to fully wield their silver swords, Black Monkey made an unexpected move. It threw out the black box in his hand, which was thrown between Mo Kai and Meng Yun. The direction it was thrown was not in the direction of Zhang Lu and Lin Long, but on the other side.
Due to Black Monkey's sudden throw, Mo Kai and Meng Yun were actually unable to react.
After staring blankly for a moment, Zhang Lu and his partner immediately rushed towards the black box.
At this time, they were even closer to the black box than Mo Kai and Meng Yun, and perhaps even Lin Long.
The one closest to him was the one on Mo Kai's side, so he rushed to the front.
This situation naturally made Meng Yun anxious. He shouted anxiously, "Zhang Lu, stop him!"
Even if Meng Yun hadn't made a sound, Zhang Lu still wouldn't have easily gotten the black box from that person. Therefore, he directly sent a sword strike towards that person.
As soon as he felt the sword qi coming from behind him, that person didn't dare to rush forward and quickly dodged to the right. Zhang Lu was naturally overjoyed because this was the person who was most likely to get the black box.
However, at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over from beside him. Before he could react, the figure had already rushed to the side of the black box and grabbed it.
This man was Lin Long, with his speed, it was easy for him to get the black box before Zhang Lu.
"Good boy, you're courting death!" Zhang Lu could not help but howl in rage as he charged forward.
Not only did he rush over, but Meng Yun and Mo Kai also rushed over.
It was also at this time that Lin Long did something that surprised everyone. He threw the black box in his hands to the side.
Meng Yun, Mo Kai and the rest naturally did not know what Lin Long was doing, but since they had the time to care about Lin Long, they immediately turned around and rushed towards the black box.
However, just as they moved, a black figure had already grabbed the black box and was dashing towards the entrance.
"Chase!"
Amidst these roars, Meng Yun, Mo Kai, and the rest immediately gave chase.
The black shadow was the black monkey from before.
However, due to the fact that they were too far away, Black Monkey was clearly one step ahead of them. By the time they had caught up, Black Monkey had already disappeared without a trace.
The anxious Meng Yun and Mo Kai naturally gave chase.1
As for Lin Long, he followed Zhang Lu and the other two, and rushed out at the same time.
After the four rushed out, they discovered that the black monkey was trying to escape to the left, and there seemed to be three people in that direction.
"Stop it!" Meng Yun and Mo Kai did not care whether the three of them knew each other or not, they all shouted in unison.
While roaring, he chased after them.
Seeing this, the three of them also brandished their runic swords to deal with Black Monkey. What Lin Long did not expect was that Black Monkey had actually escaped in a hurry or was it something else, to actually be injured by one of the sword qi.
Fortunately, the sword attack didn't seem to be too serious. The Black Monkey immediately scurried out, allowing Lin Long to heave a sigh of relief.
If Black Monkey was stopped, the black box in Black Monkey's hand would inevitably fall into those three's hands.
Seeing the black monkey continue to flee, the group of people behind him naturally chased closely after him.
As for Lin Long, he too followed behind them, but did not dare to follow too close, because once these people turned around to deal with him, he would be in trouble.
After all, there were two Silver rank experts amongst them.
After following them for a long while, Lin Long finally breathed a sigh of relief, because the black monkey had left these people without a trace.
Unable to find Black Monkey, Meng Yun, Mo Kai and the rest could only stop.
The moment he stopped, Zhang Lu said, "I think the masked man from earlier was with this black monkey."
"That's right, it should be a team." Mo Kai also nodded.
"Then let's go back and find that guy. We should be able to get the black box if we find him!" Meng Yun said as well.
After saying that, the group immediately turned around. Although Lin Long was right behind them, they did not see him.
After searching for a while, unable to find Lin Long, they could only stop.
Could it be that the black monkey that just snatched the black box is the same one that stopped me? At this time, this thought suddenly appeared in Meng Yun's mind.
Such a thought made him think directly of Lin Long.
Could this monkey be Lin Li's enemy? That's why it suddenly stopped him. If that was the case, then that masked man should be Lin Li. Only he could have that kind of speed and agility! The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the masked man was Lin Li. In other words, the black box had been snatched away by Lin Li's black monkey.
Good boy, you actually tamed such a vicious beast. I have truly underestimated you! Meng Yun said in his heart with an ugly expression.
Of course, he was only guessing, he would only know if he really caught Lin Long.
However, he did not plan to tell this to Mo Kai, because Lin Long had the black box with him. If he told Mo Kai and Mo Kai caught Lin Long again, the remnant inside the black box would not be his.
Thus, he had hidden his selfish desire.
If not for the black box, he would have told Mo Kai that the man was Lin Li and asked Mo Kai to help him deal with him.
These people who could not find Lin Long and Black Monkey were not willing to give up, so they continued to search the area.
At this time, Lin Long had already circled around in a big circle as he chased after the black monkey in front of him.
