"Killed by someone else…"

A rusty iron sword was thrust into the chest of the skeleton, piercing right through the heart, and was fiercely embedded into the ground.

The reason for determining it was killed by someone else is mainly because the owner of this skeleton still held a sword in their own hand, making it impossible to be suicide!

Upon seeing this skeleton, Qin Fang's expression slightly changed, and he couldn't help but lift his head, looking toward the direction of those buildings.

Unfortunately, he was already in the forest at this point, with only towering trees in sight, unable to see the buildings within that mysterious location.

"There's something off about this…"

Looking at this skeleton and its manner of death, Qin Fang felt something strange, but was temporarily unable to determine the cause.

"Let's go and see…"

Such a mysterious place seemed abandoned for many years, yet finding such a skeleton without any signs of burial inside now was very suspicious.

Thinking of this, Qin Fang became even more cautious and returned to the path, quickly heading toward the predetermined direction…

While walking on the road, Qin Fang also found some wild rare herbs, all of considerable age, with several being over a hundred years old, making them excellent materials for preparing elixirs.

Although Qin Fang was moving quickly at this time, he didn't intend to let these materials slip by, using Herb Gathering Technique to swiftly collect the herbs.

He didn't have time to categorize them now, so he directly threw the collected herbs into the Props Box, planning to identify them slowly when he had leisure time.

Bang~~

Just at that moment, when Qin Fang was getting infinitely close to the group of buildings, a gunshot suddenly rang out in the forest, and immediately a flock of birds flapped their wings and flew up from the forest.

"Not good, something happened…"

Upon hearing this gunshot, Qin Fang's expression changed instantly, and his heart sank. He knew something had happened to his people.

"It should be Ji Xiang… in that direction!"

They entered with a total of four people, and only Qin Fang and Ji Xiang were skilled with guns. Since nothing happened on Qin Fang's end but he heard gunshots, it was evident Ji Xiang encountered trouble.

As for whether it was someone within the mysterious location who fired the gun… judging from the era of this building, the possibility of people here using modern weapons was too low.

"I must help him!"

Ji Xiang was a Master Level Peak expert, incredibly powerful, especially after going through several tough battles, nearing the rank of a Semi-Grandmaster.

Even so, he was forced to use a gun, indicating how dangerous the situation was, which Qin Fang could imagine…

Ji Xiang wasn't a fool; if he hadn't encountered an insurmountable obstacle, he definitely wouldn't take such risks, as it's equivalent to causing trouble for his companions.

However, he did it now, meaning his situation was extremely critical. Qin Fang scarcely hesitated, promptly heading toward the direction of the gunshots.

Utilizing the Snow Traversing Step with full force, though the forest's terrain was complex with many trees and numerous thorns blocking the way, Qin Fang couldn't afford to worry about those, striving with his movement technique to rescue Ji Xiang!

Qin Fang's speed was swift. Although the two pieces of Heavenly Silkworm Silk Armor protected vital areas like the chest and back, the thorns occasionally whipping his body caused negligible damage, but the pain was quite substantial…

However, none of this could deter Qin Fang's determination, resolutely rushing toward that direction.

Judging from the gunshot, Qin Fang estimated Ji Xiang was approximately four to five hundred meters away from him, positioned in a relatively remote spot.

This distance wasn't too far; with Qin Fang's speed, it would only take a few minutes to reach, eager to save his teammate, he even forsook those rare herbs.

Just that, as Qin Fang advanced, he didn't forget to remain vigilant of his surroundings since Ji Xiang encountered a crisis, Qin Fang might as well.

Forcing Ji Xiang to open fire meant significant threat to Qin Fang too, necessitating cautious vigilance on his part.

"Who's there?"

Suddenly, a peculiar sound came, Qin Fang's pace slightly paused, his body stalled, then abruptly exerted force, leaping onto a tree at the roadside, vigilantly watching the direction the sound came from, simultaneously shouting coldly.

"Is that you, Qing Mountain?"

As soon as Qin Fang spoke, a person emerged from the forest grass, immediately causing Qin Fang to shout out in surprise.

"It's me!"

The person who appeared was naturally Song Qingshan, calmly answering with a deep voice, although his current condition didn't seem particularly well, covered almost entirely in blood, appearing exceptionally ferocious.

"What happened? Are you injured?"

Seeing Song Qingshan drenched in blood, Qin Fang's expression wasn't good either, almost immediately moving closer to treat Song Qingshan's wounds.

"This isn't my blood! I'm fine…"

However, Song Qingshan promptly indicated, wiping the blood off himself, and Qin Fang then noticed, Song Qingshan seemed in good condition, showing no signs of injury.

"It's fine, it's fine… let's hurry to rescue Ji Xiang, tell us what exactly you encountered on the way?"
