C3 Great War
Chapter Three: Great War
Looking at the incoming flying sword, Ye Wandering couldn't help but complain. He originally wanted to resolve this battle, but he never thought that these cultivators would be so hostile towards zombies. It seemed that his idea of turning the situation into a fight was too naive. At this very moment, Ye Piao was actually envious of the vampires of the west. When he went to the inn at the foot of the mountain to exchange firewood for money, he had also heard many legends about the vampires of the west from cultivators. Although the status of that race was awkward, and they could compete with the powerful forces of the Radiant Church, they had an equally powerful Dark Society backing them. As long as the vampires didn't do anything out of the ordinary, the Radiant Church wouldn't dare to kill one of them.
What about the Eastern Zombies? Although in terms of overall strength, they were stronger than the vampires of the West, but weren't they all still captured and killed by the Eastern cultivators? Previously, when the four Corpse Ancestates were there, it was fine, but when the four Corpse Ancestors mysteriously went missing, the zombies became the public enemy of all the Eastern cultivators. 100 years ago, in the battle of corpse extermination that happened in the East, almost all the high level zombies in the East were killed, causing the strength of the Corpse Tribe to drop greatly, in order to avoid being exterminated, the Eastern zombies finally fell to the extreme. In order to quickly raise their cultivation, most of the zombies started to attack the spirit of all things.
However, every time Ye Wandering thought about it, he would have a feeling that the great killing zombie of the Eastern Cultivation World must have something to do with the mysterious disappearance of the four ancient Ancestors. Also, who was the mysterious voice that guided him on the path to becoming a zombie?
He pushed off the ground with his right foot and avoided the flying sword. The flying sword stabbed into the thatched cottage behind Ye Piao, and the huge energy wave from the flying sword almost destroyed the entire thatched cottage. Looking at the half-roof that was about to collapse, Ye Piao was shocked as he cried out, "Grandmother!" As he spoke, he rushed into the house.
Meng Shengdao didn't pause for even a moment. His energy surged, and the azure flying sword let out a piercing shriek as it turned and shot back toward Meng Shengdao. At this moment, Ye Piao was anxiously searching for his grandmother's figure in the house. Suddenly, he felt a green light piercing towards him. He was furious. He reached out his right hand and a powerful force immediately engulfed the flying sword. A loud sound rang out and Ye Piao was sent flying a few meters back. The flying sword trembled three times in the air and the green light on the sword dimmed. Meng Shengdao's body shook as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing Meng Shengdao spitting out large mouthfuls of blood, Ye Piao was not surprised at all. He had long since heard that the cultivator's primordial spirit and his own magic treasure were inextricably linked. Just now, when he had struck the flying sword head on, Meng Shengdao's primordial spirit had suffered quite a bit of internal injuries.
He took advantage of the situation to chase after Meng Shengdao. However, when he looked at the completely destroyed thatched cottage, his anger flared up. He viciously glared at Meng Shengdao and growled, "If anything happens to my grandmother, I'll tear you into pieces!" Then he rushed into the ruins like a madman.
"Grandmother! "Grandmother!" Ye Piao called out a few times, but he didn't reply. He became even more anxious. At this moment, he felt a bit of anger in the ruins. He quickly moved forward and found a white-haired old lady. It was his grandma. Fortunately, a plank fell and leaned against the wall. Otherwise, her grandmother would have been buried in the rubble, but even so, Grandma Ye fainted because of the shock.
The loud explosion caused by the collision between Ye Piao and the flying sword had awoken many locals. The crowd had put on their clothes and left the house in fear, not knowing what had happened. However, when they saw the green light emitting from Ye Piao's body, which was floating in the air like an immortal, their hearts trembled as they realized something.
"Ah!" It was great Immortal Meng! There must be a zombie there!
"Yes!" It must be great Immortal Meng who is getting rid of the zombies. Come, let's go help great Immortal Meng!
"Great!" "Everyone, take the torches and leave!"
The originally silent night suddenly became lively. All the people from the Spirit Apostle County that were supposed to be righteous picked up their torches and noisily rushed towards Meng Shengdao …
Almost everyone had forgotten the gratitude of the mysterious zombie when it was rid of the local tyrants. In the eyes of the people, those people deserved to die, but the zombie deserved to die even more, because zombies were evil creatures, and its existence posed a threat to people. That was it.
"Grandmother! "Grandmother!" Ye Piao knelt on the ground and picked up his grandmother, screaming as his eyes became misty.
"Ugh …" Amidst her grandson's urgent shouts, Granny Ye finally opened her eyes slowly. The moment she saw Ye Piao, her entire body trembled, and she said in a trembling voice, "Ah Ling, is that you? True... Is it really you? "
"It's me, it's me. I'm back, Grandma." He had been raised by his grandma since he was young, so his gratitude towards her could be imagined. As long as he knew, he would never be with her again.
"Ling!" Grandma Ye cried in excitement, and then two streams of tears flowed down her cheeks. Seeing his grandmother cry, Ye Wandering's heart ached as if it had been twisted by a knife.
Meng Shengdao coldly stared at Ye Piao with his flying sword and said, "You should have said all that you have to say. The world isn't a place for you. It's time for you to go back to the Yin."
"Hahaha!" Ye Piao laughed, looked up at Meng Shengdao, and said with a deep voice, "I, Ye Piao, have long been in the dark. What do I have to be afraid of?"
Grandma Ye then got up and knelt on the ground. She kowtowed and cried towards Meng Shengdao, "Immortal Meng, I beg you, please let Ah Ling go …" "This child is very obedient, he won't hurt anyone. Immortal Meng, I'm begging you. Please be merciful and let A-Ling go …"
Looking at his grandmother's emaciated body, Ye Piao's heart ached. He went up to help her up and choked with sobs, "Grandmother, get up, I'm fine …" "Ling is fine."
At this moment, the commoners of Spirit Apostle County were rushing over from all directions. The torches in their hands lit up the previously dark and desolate area as bright as day. Many birds and beasts began to cry out in fear as they fled into the depths of the forest.
Everyone looked at Ye Piao with vigilance. They all subconsciously moved closer to Meng Shengdao.
"This... Is this guy a zombie? It doesn't look like it. "
"He sucked so much blood. He must be getting stronger."
"Wah!" That really is a demon! Immortal Meng, hurry up and kill him!
"Yes!" Kill him! "
The crowd began to clamor. Ye Wandering looked at the people who were previously as weak as sheep in front of the bullies, but now they were so heartless. Was this what they meant by 'a dead rabbit is cooked with a dog'? It seemed that his previous sympathy had really reached the extremities of stupidity.
Grandma Ye took two steps forward and cried at the crowd, "A'Ling is a good child, he won't kill the innocent …"
"Pui!" Are there any zombies in this world that don't kill innocent people? Even a fool would not believe it if it was leaked. "
"That's right, he has already killed so many people, shouldn't he die already? Do you want your grandson to kill us all!? "
"Hey!" Old woman, scram away! "Today, we are going to eliminate this evil zombie on behalf of the heavens. If you dare to stop it again, we might kill you too!" A young man shouted arrogantly, making a gesture to throw the torch in his hand over.
Hearing the other party start to insult his grandmother, Ye Piao could no longer hold back the rage in his heart. Endless evil thoughts arose in his head. Killing intent surged in his eyes as he roared, "You're courting death!" He pounced towards the youth.
The moment they saw Ye Piao pouncing towards them, everyone turned pale with fright. They screamed as they scattered in all directions. The torches were also thrown onto the ground. Some of the unlucky fellows had even become pawns in the chaos.
Especially the young man, who was scared to the point of peeing his pants. He turned around and ran as he shrieked, because he clearly felt that this zombie was heading straight for him. He couldn't help but cry out, "Help! Great Immortal Meng, save me!
Ye Wandering's killing intent was obvious, he extended his right hand, and just as he was about to grab the young man, he heard an angry shout from above, "Evil being, don't even think of harming me!" Ye Piao's eyes were cold as his right hand shot out and hit the young man in the back. The young man screamed and his body flew forward like a kite with its string cut. He landed heavily on the ground and twitched for a few times before he stopped moving.
"Sin!" Ye Piao was startled. He immediately flew back to Grandma Ye's side and pushed his right hand towards the sky. Then, a wave of Ink Wave rolled out from his right hand and forcibly withstood the shocking power. Muffled explosions rang out endlessly. The nearby trees and boulders were crushed by the force. Shattered wood flew everywhere as astonishing ravines were left behind on the ground. It was two meters deep. With such a great destructive power, it was clear how strong this person was.
Ye Piao's hand had blocked the incoming person's terrifying attack. It was enough to see the shocking strength of the Eastern Zombies. Ye Piao helped his grandma up and said, "Grandmother, go to a safe place. They won't let me go. Grandmother, leave quickly. I'll come find you later."
Tears streamed down Granny Ye's wrinkled face. She held onto Ye Wandering's arms tightly and sobbed, "Ah Ling, don't hurt anyone. Don't go. Grandmother will tell them. Grandmother will beg them to let you go."
At this moment, a white-browed Taoist appeared in the sky with a horsetail whisk in hand and a flying sword on his feet. However, his eyes were emitting a cold light as he stared at Ye Piao.
Meng Shengdao respectfully greeted, "Senior Leng Ling."
Leng Lingzi nodded her head slightly. She pointed the horsetail whisk at Ye Piao who was on the ground and shouted in a deep voice, "Insolent zombie! How dare you commit murder in front of so many people! Heaven forbid! This humble Taoist will use a spell to kill you, a monster of this world!"
