Heavy smokes were rushing into the sky from the tranquil village. After leaving the airboat, Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian soon arrived at the destination after traveling dozens of miles.
In the sky, Zhang Tie's eyes faintly revealed a lotus-flower shaped halo and changed the halo several times silently before seeing everything in the village.
In the flames, Zhang Tie saw people running hurriedly in all directions with flashing sabers and swords and spraying blood.
It was a massacre. Some people were wailing; some were dying; some were resisting.
Over 40 people were making a massacre and setting fire across the village.
Those killers were in disordered clothes; however, they were very ferocious. What was more, Zhang Tie found that all of these killers were LV 9 fighters.
Zhang Tie understood it immediately that these people were bloody figures that escaped from Zhongzhou Province.
...
In the east of the village which was covered with raging flames, there was a plain grain-sunning ground near the foot of the mountain, a tough Hua man was waving his huge saber, the handle of which was carved with a ghost's head and leading over 20 young Hua people to fight over 10 bloody figures who were moving around the grain-sunning ground.
The tough man and the surrounding young men were all wounded. Over 30 corpses were lying around the grain-sunning ground, most of which were young men; only a few of them were split into two halves, which might belong to those bloody figures.
"Forming a battle formation. Stay on my side. Injured ones stay inside the battle formation and don't break out..." The tough man roared as he waved his huge saber and fought those bloody figures.
Among those young men in the battle formation, a couple of them also released battle qi totems; however, all of them were LV 6 black spiders.
Over 10 bloody figures were besieging them. Perhaps, this tough man had already killed some bloody figures; therefore, the rest bloody figures were scared of him. At this moment, those bloody figures were fighting these people on the grain-sunning ground like wolf packs. The tough man's off-hand strikes and huge saber were both powerful. Therefore, these bloody figures could only fight him in a flexible way. Meanwhile, they radiated bloody eye lights and wailed like wild beasts while seeking for the chance to break the defense line of these people.
Hearing the cries and wails from inside the village, all the young men being besieged by the bloody figures knew what was happening in the distance. However, they could only grit their teeth to stand it while bleeding and dropping tears.
All the partners who wanted to go back home to save their family members due to impulsion had become corpsed around the grain-sunning ground. The sudden catastrophe and brutal reality made these survivors strong-willed. They could only resist the attack of the bloody figures at their full efforts.
In the blink of an eye, 5-6 bloody figures ran towards them from the flames in the distance while their mouths were covered with blood. Some of them were even holding slim and tender arms and shins of babies and gnawing them.
"You sons of bitches..." The tough man who was waving his huge saber was so furious that his eyes almost jumped out of his eye sockets. However, he couldn't break out. Perhaps he could kill two more bloody figures; he might also break through the besiege of these LV 9 bloody figures; however, if he did that, all young men on his side would be killed in less than 1 minute.
Therefore, he had to stand it until the reinforcement arrived. Such raging flames were pretty eye-catching in the evening. Even though there wasn't any city in the surroundings, as long as an airship flew by, it could pass the message to the superiors of this territory; perhaps the reinforcement was already on their way...
The new bloody figures brought a greater stress to these people on the grain-sunning ground abruptly. Although the bloody figures were still moving around these people; they launched more tentative attacks towards these people. The more active the bloody figures were, the more dangerous these people on the grain-sunning ground were.
The bloody figures didn't speak; they just communicated in muffled voice or roars and watched these people on the grain-sunning ground with red eyes. Nobody knew what these wild-beasts like bloody figures were thinking about.
In a split second, five bloody figures attacked the battle formation from 5 directions at the same time. At the sight of this, the tough man roared and immediately punched 5 battle qi towards the 5 bloody figures respectively.
Pitifully, the LV 10 fighter didn't hit bloody figures with his battle qi; instead, he hit some shadows in the air.
As a result, the shadows were shattered into pieces by the tough man's battle qi, spraying bloody flesh in all directions.
The bloody figures were in a tacit cooperation and pretty cunning. When the tough man shattered the corpses into pieces by his punch-shaped battle qi, the five bloody figures who were approaching the battle formation from 5 directions suddenly retreated. At the same time, three bloody figures rushed towards the young men's battle formation from the other three directions respectively while exposing their fangs.
Additionally, 6 bloody figures rushed towards the tough man at the same time.
'It's too bad.' The tough man thought as his heart pounded.
"Let's fight these sons of bitches to death..." A young man in the battle formation shouted.
"Go die!" The tough man had also determined to fight those bloody figures at the cost of his life. He waved his huge saber and involved in three bloody figures who were rushing towards him with his saber aura. At the same time, he punched towards another bloody figure, sending him flying in the distance...
In this process, the tough man revealed his loopholes. The other two bloody figures seized the opportunity and immediately caused two grim wounds on the tough man's back and lower abdomen.
LV 10 fighter's battle qi strikes were not limitless. Additionally, a LV 10 fighter was also scared of the wheel war and besiege from LV 9 opponents.
When the tough man was injured, the battle formation collided with the three bloody figures. Two young men in the battle formation uttered a muffled sound and got injured at the same time. As a result, the battle formation was weakened a bit...
After seizing the opportunity, all the surrounding bloody figures roared and rushed forward.
At the critical moment, Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian arrived.
"Sons of b*tches..." Bai Suxian was irritated. Before Zhang Tie started his attack, Bai Suxian's eyes had turned cold. She wove her hand while white battle qi lines as dense as rain covered the entire grain-sunning ground like a huge net.
The moment the white battle qi lines were tightened up, the heads of over 10 bloody figures in the grain-sunning ground had been chopped off. Closely after that, their bodies were cut into pieces in a split second. However, that tough man and those young men who formed the battle formation were all safe and sound.
In a split second, those people who were resisting bloody figures in the grain-sunning ground felt that the heavy bloody smell suffused. The tough man who was waving the huge saber also looked up and caught sight of Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian immediately.
In the flames, Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian arrived with surging qis. At the sight of them, the tough man knew that their saviors finally arrived.
"You take care of them here. I'm afraid that few people are still alive in the village. I will kill all of the b*stards!" Zhang Tie told Bai Suxian.
"Fine!" Bai Suxian always followed Zhang Tie's order on such occasions. It was a bit privity that they cultivated when fighting demon knights in the Earth-elements Realm.
Zhang Tie threw a glance at the grain-sunning ground as he let out a sigh inside. Before those people on the grain-sunning ground appreciated him, he had disappeared in the air.
Because he moved too fast, commoners could not catch his movement by naked eyes. Therefore, those people on the grain-sunning ground thought that Zhang Tie disappeared out of the void.
Zhang Tie didn't know how these bloody figures communicated with each other. When Bai Suxian launched her strike, even though those bloody figures didn't utter any voice until death, Zhang Tie still found that all the bloody figures who were making a massacre and setting fires in the village became still for a second. Closely after that, all the rest bloody figures escaped in all directions.
It would be a joke if Zhang Tie allowed these bloody figures to escape under his eyes.
Zhang Tie moved as fast as a lightning bolt. Only after flying around the village two circles, he had killed all the bloody figures by shooting them with his battle qi from his fingers, except for two, who were left alive purposefully by Zhang Tie. The farthest one was only less than 100 m away from the village.
At this moment, these LV 9 bloody figures were as weak as flies with broken wings and legs who were waiting to be killed by a heavy hammer.
It took Zhang Tie a few time to kill all the bloody figures in the village. By contrast, it took him a long time to save people. Under Zhang Tie's lotus-flower eyes, he could see clearly all the alive people who were hiding in the cellars and wells. He saved them one after another. He even broke two cellars by force...
