C24 Face-tearing skin
When the moon reached its zenith, a group of ten people wearing night clothes came out of Rock Village. They held sharp blades in their hands, and quietly walked towards Redbud Village. Among them, one of them had even reached the Yellow Rank Soul Man Realm, and the remaining nine were all powerhouses of the ninth level of the Body Tempering Stage! There must be some plot behind the actions of these ten people!
The night was covered by black clothes, the stars and the moon, and the wormless sword was stained with blood.
The night was as dark as ink.
It was like an inkstone sprinkling down, turning the entire world dark. There was no wind, and the air was extremely quiet, as if it had solidified. Such an environment caused everyone to feel depressed.
In the Redbud Village, the people kept tossing and turning without sleep the entire night, feeling that something was amiss. One of the villagers turned the bed over a few times, then covered his head with a blanket and tried to sleep.
Suddenly, a black-clothed man appeared in the house of the villager. A flash of a blade came out and rushed towards the villager's chest.
"The people of Redbud Village have gotten their own treasures and hid them secretly, this is too hateful, we want to help the people of the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range to seek justice, and take their ill-intentioned wealth and give it to the people of the Great Mountain!" Another black-clothed man appeared, and spoke in a low voice. Although it was said in a dignified manner, the people present did not believe a single word of it. However, they did not need to believe in this matter. All they needed to do was to do it.
Dozens of black-clothed man s rose and fell within the walls of the Redbud Village. Their cultivation was not weak, the villagers of Redbud Village did not even have the time to make a sound, and they died just like that.
"Who is it!" One of the villagers came out in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and happened to see dozens of black-clothed man s flipping into his courtyard.
With a "pu ci" sound, a part of the blade's hilt pierced into the villager's chest, causing blood to spurt out of his mouth uncontrollably. As his life force was sucked away, his body fell to the ground.
Due to the loud shouts from the villagers, there were lights on in the courtyards. It seemed that some people had been alerted.
Not long after, the patriarch led the people to the outer courtyard of Redbud Village. They discovered that the outer courtyard was already filled with the thick smell of blood.
"Order it down, be on full alert while searching for assassins in Redbud Village! If I meet any assassins, none of them will be left for me to kill! " The chief said to a villager behind him. Then, he personally led his men to search the other courtyards.
The Patriarch thought that he had not caused any trouble in the vicinity recently, and he did not know who had dared to set their eyes on them. If the people from the three big powers of the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range came and had their eyes on them, he was afraid that he would have to reveal the hidden strength of the Redbud Village s.
If it was only the Rock Village, then he didn't know whether or not he should take action to stop them.
At that moment, Li Ye was seated cross-legged in his room cultivating, continuing his Hundred Beasts Pagoda. He realized that there was one benefit of having a good night's rest, that spiritual consciousness was that it was not tiring at all. Even if he cultivated for an entire night, he would still be able to sleep well, and on the morning of the second day, he was brimming with energy and vitality.
In the past, he had not paid too much attention to matters of cultivation. As he encountered more and more things, as well as the fact that his identity seemed to be entangled with many major issues, if he did not have a powerful strength, he was afraid that his current situation was extremely dangerous.
Thus, cultivation was what he valued the most.
After another cycle of breathing, Li Ye felt that his cultivation had stabilized at the Soul Man Stage and was continuously advancing towards the Heaven-ranked Soul Man.
Li Ye quietly observed his surroundings to see how sensitive his own Divine Sense was, and when he spread out his Divine Sense, he noticed that something was amiss in the courtyard of the Redbud Village.
Dozens of figures appeared in his Spiritual Sense. These people suppressed their Spiritual Qi and tried their best not to make any noise. They looked like thieves entering the house.
"Something's wrong!" Li Ye suddenly opened his eyes, he knew that the people outside were not from Redbud Village, because with his Spiritual Sense's probing, he actually felt a wave of killing intent.
Ta.
At this moment, a light sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard. If it was at any other time, this kind of light sound would not attract any attention, but in the dead of night, Li Ye could feel a chill from the sound.
"Clank ~ ~ ~"
A black-clothed man stomped his feet and opened the door. Since they had already heard the sounds of someone shouting on patrol in Redbud Village, they did not slowly sneak into the room. Instead, they used the most direct and violent method to "open the door".
Under the thin and chilly moonlight, he looked into the room and saw that the bedding on the bed was neatly folded. The room was arranged in an orderly manner. The ground was clean and the house was empty.
"Second Elder, there's no one here." black-clothed man looked behind him and said.
Behind him, another black-clothed man nodded and waved his hand. The group left the place and headed to another courtyard.
After the group left, Li Ye came out from under the bed. A moment ago, he had taken a quick look at the people outside, but all of them actually had quite a strong cultivation base, even the weakest was at the Body Tempering realm!
Li Ye once again recalled the words black-clothed man shouted before he left. It sounded a little familiar, as if he had heard that title somewhere before, "Second Elder? Could it be that Shi Lingzhan? "
Thinking about that, Li Ye once again looked towards the direction where black-clothed man left. Suddenly, his expression changed, as if he thought of something, his figure flickered, and he immediately chased after, "Not good! Ah Yue is cultivating over there! "
As Li Ye ran, there were two small courtyards between the cultivation grounds of Ah Yue and the little courtyard that he was in. When he passed by the two small courtyards, Li Ye's nose twitched, and immediately he smelt the stench of blood in the courtyard, which indicated that the servants in the courtyard were all dead.
frowned, his speed had increased another level, he continued to chase forward.
Just as he arrived at the courtyard door, Li Ye saw a few black-clothed man s guarding the courtyard, and a few other black-clothed man s went into the rooms of the Ah Yue.
Who dares to be so impudent in the Redbud Village? A loud shout came from Li Ye's mouth. In his heart, he had already confirmed that the black-clothed man in front of him was a person from Rock Village, but he did not reveal it, and only used a loud voice to convey the news of the assassin. He hoped that the surrounding Redbud Village would hear it.
In the dead of night, a loud shout suddenly came out, startling the black-clothed man s. At this moment, a few black-clothed man s ran out, one of them said: "There is no one in this room!"
As Li Ye stood at the entrance of the courtyard and heard the black-clothed man's voice, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. As long as the Ah Yue was not inside the house, he was at least safe.
Suddenly, one of the black-clothed man people walked out, he pointed at Li Ye and laughed: "Little bastard, I never thought that you would actually run out on your own, it's just nice to send you on your way!"
Hearing that the voice belonged to an old man, Li Ye could tell that it was Shi Lingzhan who had chased him down the cliff that day. His voice was something he would never forget.
"Da Da Da …"
Just then, another dense group of Footsteps appeared around them. It seemed like a large number of people were coming their way.
"Hurry up and follow me, the assassin is here, my brother is still inside!" An urgent voice came out, then, Li Ye saw a large group of people rushing over with torches in hand. The one leading them was a sickly pale youth, behind him was the village chief and the experts of the Redbud Village.
A group of people instantly rushed to the entrance of the courtyard. There were also many people who surrounded the courtyard, and under the shine of the firelight, a trace of fear appeared in the eyes of the dozens of black-clothed man s. They didn't expect the Redbud Village to react so quickly.
Li Ye's eyes were filled with surprise, he never thought that the one who would be reporting to him would be Ah Yue, he had his doubts about where the would go in the night, but he never expected that it would be to report to him, could it be that he had secretly left the courtyard when he discovered black-clothed man?
"Huff … huff …" After running for a while, I feel a little tired. " At this moment, the Ah Yue stroked his chest, and after taking a breath of relief, he stood up straight with a smug look on his face. With his left hand on his waist, the Right Hand extended his hand forward, and pointed his index finger at the group of black-clothed man s in the courtyard. You black dogs who cannot even see the light of day, quickly take off your scarves and reveal your old faces, I will not kill you, you shameless people! "
After saying that, Ah Yue took out a steel blade from who knows where. He gently caressed the blade and looked like a lonely expert, making all the black-clothed man's teeth itch.
"You brat, you don't even have the strength of a mere Soul Man, how dare you act so arrogantly? Come here, I'll hack you into eight pieces!" When he saw the strength of the Ah Yue, he was extremely furious. When had a little kid ever said something like that?
Being yelled at by black-clothed man, Ah Yue felt a little guilty. He knew that he was not strong enough, and the reason he shouted back then was because he had a lot of people on his side.
Just then, the Patriarch walked out. From the moment he came here, he had been observing the group of black-clothed man in front of him using the light from the fire, and he could tell that they were all well-trained people. Each and every one of them exuded a body tempering aura, and there was even one who had reached the strength of the Yellow Rank Soul Man!
He himself possessed Earth Rank, so dealing with the person in front of him was naturally not a problem. Redbud Village also had many Body Tempering experts, but he knew that the power backing the newcomers was not small. It was his first time sending out such a strong force.
However, since he had already chosen to face it, he didn't need to hide his strength.
"Why have all of you come here so late in the night?"
"Humph!" You should know that there are some things that you shouldn't help, so don't help! " One of the black-clothed man s slowly took a step forward, and spoke with a tone that of an elderly man.
"Shi Lingzhan?" The village chief frowned, he could immediately tell that in the vicinity, there were only two old men who were in charge of the Rock Village, they were the two that were close to death, and he was very familiar with their voices.
After finding out that it was Shi Lingzhan, the Patriarch suddenly recalled the matter of him stealing Jing Wuhui from him. It was probably for this matter that Shi Lingzhan was avenging a personal grudge.
"Stone Village Chief must be joking. At that time, we did not stop your actions because the one you were trying to rob was only a girl from the village. It did not have much of an impact on us. But killing so many villagers in Redbud Village today has affected the interests of our entire village. We must give the Redbud Village an explanation! " The Patriarch said coldly.
As the patriarch spoke, the many experts of the Redbud Village all held their weapons in their hands, and each one of them wished that they could immediately rush forward to kill them. Some of them had good brothers that lived in the courtyard outside, while they had already died in the hands of Shi Lingzhan and his men.
"An explanation?" Humph! Do you think your Redbud Village has the right to ask us for an explanation!? " Shi Lingzhan took off his mask and sneered.
Since the clan head already knew his identity, he didn't continue to disguise himself and pulled the veil over his face.
Hearing this, the Patriarch turned to look at Li Ye, and saw the latter gently nod his head, and felt a little helpless.
