Chapter 65: Heavenly Fiend Blade

Although the young man was injured, his movements were not chaotic at all. The sword light from both his hands rolled forward at the same time, piercing right into Chang Qing’s chest. Blood sprayed out, splashing onto his face and also onto Lu Feixia.

Lu Feixia escaped serious harm, but the dagger had grazed her cheek, leaving a long bloody mark. However, she was completely stunned. Although she had played many pranks in the past, pranks were just child’s play after all. When had she ever seen such a bloody scene?!

The remaining archer opposite them immediately turned his target toward Su Tang. This was human instinct; Su Tang stood far away, and apart from him, no one could hurt the archer in the first instant.

Su Tang drew Night Cry for the second time. The rhythm of the two was almost identical, both aiming at each other. However, the archer was very confused because there was only a blurry mass of gas in Su Tang’s hand, with no longbow and no arrow.

But now was not the time to think. The archer released his fingertips, and the arrow shot out, flying straight toward Su Tang’s throat.

In the next moment, the arrow flying in the air was shattered by an invisible force. Then, a large hole appeared in the archer’s chest. Through his body, one could actually see the distant forest. Afterward, he collapsed softly.

“Bastard!!!” Xi Xiaoru was furious. It was clearly a gamble, yet the opponent had suddenly made a lethal move. It was too despicable!

The young man was a ruthless character who became braver as he was injured. After killing Chang Qing, he did not retreat but instead charged straight into the crowd.

Xi Xiaoru suddenly took a step forward, her right hand grabbing the hilt of the giant blade. The moment her hand touched the hilt, two streaks of black light appeared in her pupils. An invisible, heavy aura spread in all directions with Xi Xiaoru’s body as the center.

A flock of birds happened to be flying overhead. They suddenly let out panicked cries, as if they had seen a ghost, and flapped their wings desperately to fly high into the sky.

Su Tang had the keenest senses and immediately looked back, seeing Xi Xiaoru’s pupils. Even with his willpower, he could not help but shiver. Xi Xiaoru’s eyes were filled with black, deep and eerie, with no white showing at all. Her body was slowly squatting, as if something was brewing inside her and was about to explode completely.

“Chief, don’t…” The young man turned his head and let out a terrified roar. Turning around during a battle was no different from seeking death. Fortunately, the Wandering Martial Artists of Wolf Map were also intimidated by that aura and stood frozen; otherwise, he would have certainly died in the siege.

Actually, he had spent years blending into Yunshui Marsh and had witnessed all kinds of cruel scenes. His combat experience was exceptionally rich, and he would not make such a low-level mistake. He turned back now only because if he let Xi Xiaoru explode completely, there would be no point in fighting further. Everyone here would die, including Zhou Qian and Lu Feixia!

“Sister Xiaoru, don’t! Please don’t…” Zhou Qian also screamed. In her urgency, she could not remember Xi Xiaoru’s title and used her original name instead.

“Sister Xiaoru…” Lu Feixia also woke up and called out in a trembling voice.

Xi Xiaoru seemed to hear her friends’ calls. Her movements stiffened slightly, and her face became twisted and fierce. Her right hand gripped and released the hilt again and again, and her body shook violently.

In the end, reason prevailed. Her right hand withdrew completely and hung by her side, her forehead covered in cold sweat.

At this moment, the Wandering Martial Artists of Wolf Map finally noticed the giant blade on Xi Xiaoru’s back. They let out screams of absolute terror.

“It is the Heavenly Fiend Blade… It is the Heavenly Fiend Blade!!”

“She is someone from the Xi Family of Red Leaf City!”

“Run for your lives…”

A moment ago, the Wandering Martial Artists of Wolf Map still wanted to kill them all, but now they were in complete chaos because they knew they had offended someone they absolutely could not afford to provoke.

They no longer had any will to fight and turned to flee. The problem was that some people here did not want to let them go. Su Tang wore a cold smile. Every time Night Cry let out a shriek, a Martial Artist exploded into a mist of blood. The young man danced his sword like flowing water, and in a short while, three or four more Martial Artists fell under his sword.

Seeing that they could not escape, the remaining Martial Artists suddenly thought of a plan. They all knelt on the ground and began to wail incessantly.

“Miss Xi, we dare not do it again, please spare us…”

“We were wrong, we were wrong, boo hoo…”

Among those Martial Artists, there were actually two beautiful female Martial Artists who cried so pitifully that it moved the heart.

“Sister Xiaoru, are you okay?” Zhou Qian had already approached Xi Xiaoru. With tears in her eyes, she wiped the cold sweat from Xi Xiaoru’s forehead.

“I’m fine.” Xi Xiaoru forced a small smile, then said loudly, “Forget it, let them go.”

Su Tang and the young man stopped at the same time. The looks in their eyes were a bit strange. They looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

“We’ll let you go today, so get lost quickly!” Zhou Qian shouted.

The Martial Artists of Wolf Map scrambled to their feet and raced into the forest.

In the previous battle, the deciding factor was Xi Xiaoru. The Malevolent Qi she released had scared those Martial Artists out of their wits, leaving them with no will to fight. Meanwhile, the ones who had been fighting and killing were the two of them; Zhou Qian and Lu Feixia had not attacked at all.

“May I ask your honorable name?” The young man walked toward Su Tang.

“Just call me Su Tang.” Su Tang smiled. “And you?”

“My name is Fang Yizhe.” The young man reached out his hand.

A handshake greeting was popular among Wandering Martial Artists, but instead of reaching down, they reached up, with the palm parallel to the shoulder.

Su Tang also reached out and shook his hand gently, then walked toward Xi Xiaoru. “Big brother, how are you doing?”

Xi Xiaoru shook her head; she did not really want to talk right now.

Hearing the words “big brother,” Fang Yizhe’s expression became somewhat subtle.

“Big brother, you guys sit here for a while. I have some things to discuss with Brother Fang,” Su Tang said.

“What could you two possibly have to talk about?” Zhou Qian asked curiously.

“Brother Fang, did you forget? Last time we were at…” Su Tang said to Fang Yizhe, but he didn’t know what to say next and secretly gave Fang Yizhe a look.

“The Poison Water Pond? That time we killed the double-headed crocodile?” Fang Yizhe pretended to suddenly realize.

“You finally remembered,” Su Tang laughed.

“Haha… Luckily you were there that time, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss. Thank you so much,” Fang Yizhe sighed.

“Why be so polite between brothers?” Su Tang said, walking away as he spoke.

“By the way, Brother Su…” Fang Yizhe followed by Su Tang’s side, his voice becoming lower and lower.

“Does Little San know that guy?” Zhou Qian asked in confusion, while Lu Feixia just stared blankly at the backs of Su Tang and Fang Yizhe without answering.

“Hey, have you gone stupid?” Zhou Qian tugged at Lu Feixia.

“Ah…” Lu Feixia woke up as if from a dream and hurriedly shifted her gaze elsewhere.
