272 The Danger in the Forest
When Lin Fang saw the person’s appearance clearly, his pupils contracted slightly, and a hint of shock flashed across his eyes.
The person in front of him had exquisite facial features. He had long light green hair, a pair of eyes as deep and mysterious as the forest, and a pair of long and pointed ears.
After looking at the person’s appearance and characteristics, a name immediately emerged in Lin Fang’s mind: Elves.
That’s right, based on the appearance of the person before him, Lin Fang immediately associated her with the word ‘elf’.
In his hand, he was holding an exquisite and unique longbow that seemed to be very powerful.
After that, elves slowly appeared from the darkness of the forest one after another.
Lin Fang’s heart skipped a beat.
The elves were powerful in combat, which was a well-known fact on the continent.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the other party’s ambitions weren’t great and he didn’t have the desire to compete, the power structure of this continent would probably have been rewritten.
The Vast Flame Kingdom had dominated this region in the past not only because they were powerful, but also because they had not encountered any powerful opponents.
Now that he had encountered these elves, Lin Fang’s mood instantly became somewhat heavy. All sorts of messy thoughts started to flash through his mind.
Why was this elf here? Could he be a native of this primitive forest?
After this conjecture appeared in his mind, Lin Fang’s mood instantly turned solemn.
If the truth was really as he had guessed, then the problem had become a little Big.
If these elves were natives, their exploration would have to stop here.
And this was just a small matter.
If it was proven that these elves were the natives of this place, the expansion of their kingdom would be greatly hindered.
At the thought of this, Lin Fang’s expression turned even more solemn.
Sweeping his gaze around the arena, Lin Fang could not help but take in a deep breath.
“You’re elves?”
As soon as Lin Fang finished his sentence, he realized that the elves in front of him had all fallen silent. Then, they looked at him as if he was an idiot.
After Lin Fang said that, he actually felt a little regretful.
What kind of question was he asking?
Taking a deep breath, Lin Fang’s gaze swept across the elves before he spoke again, “Are you the natives of this primitive forest? My team members and I don’t have any ill intentions, we’re just passing by.”
“If I have offended you in any way, I apologize. I just hope that you can let my team members go. They are all innocent.”
After Lin Fang said this, he realized that the elves around him had chosen to remain silent. No one answered his question.
Lin Fang couldn’t help but frown slightly. “Who’s the leader of the Pixiu gang? can I talk to him directly?”
After hearing Lin Fang’s words, the elves who had been silent all this while finally reacted.
Everyone’s eyes first exchanged with each other, then slowly shifted away.
Then, he slowly locked onto a young man.
When Lin Fang saw the elves’ reaction, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he locked his gaze on the young man.
He had been too focused on the elves that had appeared nearby to notice the only human youth in the elven team.
After staring at him for a while, Lin Fang slowly said, “Are you the leader of these elves?”
Su Ming cast a glance at Lin Fang, who was carefully testing the waters. A faint smile appeared on his lips, but he then said, “Yes, I am.”
When Lin Fang saw that Su Ming’s attitude was not too bad, he could not help but let out a sigh of relief. He quickly said, “I think there’s some misunderstanding between us. I hope you can let my team members come down first. They’re hehe…”
Su Ming did not speak. He only continued looking at Lin Fang with a smile.
Lin Fang’s words gradually came to a stop. When he saw that Su Ming did not intend to speak, his expression became slightly more solemn.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Fang’s brows furrowed even deeper as he said, “I just want to make sure that my other team members are safe, right?”
Su Ming did not speak. He only nodded his head lightly.
“I guess so. They won’t be in any life-threatening danger for the time being.”
When he heard Su Ming’s words, Lin Fang instantly let out a long breath. Very quickly, he spoke again instinctively, “Where are they now?”
Su Ming still did not answer.
After a moment of silence, Lin Fang said, “What is your purpose? Looking at your posture, I don’t think I’m a reckless person who has accidentally entered the forbidden area.”
“You should be more direct. It’s better for all of us.”
When he said these words, the expression on Lin Fang’s face was especially heavy.
When Su Ming heard his words, he first chuckled softly before he spoke again,
“Of course not. You’re right, we’re here for you.”
When he heard Su Ming’s words, Lin Fang’s pupils shrank, then he frowned and said, “So, are you the enemies of our Vast Flame Kingdom?”
When Su Ming heard this, he first shook his head, then said, “Not really, at least not for now.”
He paused for a moment, but before the doubt on Lin Fang’s face could show, Su Ming spoke again.
“What I need to know now is what your Vast Flame Kingdom plans to do next.”
Lin Fang did not immediately answer Su Ming’s question. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze across the entire place.
“What exactly are you guys planning to do?”
Su Ming chuckled softly and swept his gaze across Lin Fang’s body for a while before he said, “To put it in simpler terms, we need to confirm our safety. Do you understand?”
Lin Fang’s expression was slightly solemn at first, but then he seemed to have thought of something and he swept his gaze across Su Ming’s body for a long while.
“I roughly understand. However, I’m still very curious about one thing. Why is the leader of the elves a human?”
Su Ming cast him a glance. There was still a hint of curiosity and sharpness on Lin Fang’s face, as if he was a scholar who was extremely curious about an answer.
Su Ming lowered his gaze and suddenly chuckled. you don’t seem to understand the current situation.
Lin Fang was stunned at first, and the expression on his face turned grave in an instant.
“I’m…!”
Before Lin Fang could speak, Su Ming had already waved his hand lightly.
