Novel Bin Chapter 144 - An Uninhabited Village
Chapter 144: An Uninhabited Village
100 meters in the sky, strong winds howled.
A streak of light flashed across the sky.
Su Xing stood at the front with three of his Junior Sisters behind him, following suit.
After a moment of silence, Su Xing said indifferently : “Third Junior Sister, do you have any questions about the sect master’s arrangements?”
Mo Yuanqing was stunned when she heard this, but she immediately shook her head.
What problems could there be?
She had already left the Great Feng Empire and was now only a disciple on the Sunset Peak. She no longer had anything to do with the Great Feng Royal Family.
Now, even if she returned to the empire, it would only be as a disciple of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect.
Other than that, she had no other thoughts.
Su Xing thought for a moment before he added, “Well! If there’s anything inconvenient about it, you can tell Senior Brother.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother. I’ve already decided.”
Mo Yuanqing still did not have much of a reaction, as if she really did not care.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Shen Yaoling waved her fist.
“Senior Sister Qing’er, don’t worry. If someone dares to bully you, Ling’er will definitely not let them off!”
Su Yan’er also said, “And me!”
A trace of warmth suddenly appeared on Mo Yuanqing’s cold face.
Hmm, it’s good that she was fine!
Su Xing did not say anything else.
The mission that the people from the Sunset Peak had received this time was very special!
The other disciples and elders all needed to resist the demon race, and their mission was to contact one of the four great empires, the Great Feng Dynasty, and cooperate with them.
Now that the demon race had caused a large-scale disturbance in the Eastern continent, the various sects and forces alone would probably be unable to take care of it.
Hence, Zhuang Changhe meant to unite with the various empires to resist the demon race.
Suddenly, after Su Xing and the others had left the Blackheaven Sword Sect’s territory, the sky darkened.
“The situation doesn’t seem right. Something is coming.”
Keke! Kekeke!
A series of ear-piercing shrieks rang out.
“Crows! It’s a flock of crows.”
The black crows were like dark clouds that blotted out the sun as they swarmed over in large numbers. The sky was dark. Visible among the groups of crows, their bright red eyes were shining.
Obviously, these were not normal crows.
Everyone frowned.
The people of the East continent had always regarded crows as ominous creatures. Meeting a group of ominous crows as soon as they stepped out of the door really made them lose interest in going out.
“Senior Brother Su Xing, it seems that there are more and more crows. look.”
As if to verify Shen Yaoling’s words, tens of thousands of black crows appeared out of nowhere and circled around the crowd, eyeing them like tigers eyeing a prey.
It would have been fine if that was the case, but the shrieks of the tens of thousands of crows really made people feel uneasy.
Su Xing waved his hand and a golden barrier instantly enveloped the crowd, isolating the crows from the outside.
“These crows’ cries are really unpleasant to hear. Ling’er doesn’t like them!”
Everyone: “…”
These crows were tainted with a weak demonic nature, and they were actually related to the demon race!
However, it was really too much to think of using such a small trick to stop them.
Amidst the shrill cries!
The crows that blotted out the sky and covered the sun charged straight towards Su Xing and the others.
Mo Yuanqing held her longsword in her arms, her aura condensed and concentrated but not released.
“Senior Brother, be careful, the little crows are all here!”
“I say, Junior Sister! Can you not be so surprised? The levels of these monsters aren’t high, your Senior Brother Su Xing has his own ways to deal with them.”
Shen Yaoling thought seriously for a moment, then turned her head to look at Su Xing.
“Yes! Ling’er can even beat them up, it shouldn’t be a problem for Senior Brother to be stronger than Ling’er.”
“Senior Brother, don’t you agree?”
Su Xing could only nod his head and say nothing else.
Mortal-returning domain!
Destroy!
Immediately, an invisible aura rose from Su Xing’s body. The powerful will crushed the strange crows that were flying overhead, into dust.
The intent domain on Su Xing’s body had completely transformed into a mortal-returning domain. Anyone below the Human Immortal Realm who touched his intent domain would turn into dust.
It was as if this group of crows did not know fear. Although a small portion of them had already died, there were still more and more coming.
They were like moths to a flame, seeking their own destruction.
A moment later.
The sky returned to its clear and bright color, but a thick layer of ashes fell from the sky.
Su Xing clapped his hands and brought everyone to the ground to check.
This area was actually the outer perimeter of the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect, and there were quite a few rural villages.
At this moment, it was a good time for them to work, but there was no one in the fields.
“Senior, this land has been deserted for quite a period of time.”
Looking at the parched and cracked fields that were filled with withered yellow weeds, Su Yan’er pointed out the scene.
Food was the most important thing to the people, and the good land had turned into this. It seemed that the owner of this land had been met with misfortune.
After walking for a while, they arrived at a village.
Su Xing was familiar with this village. He had passed by this place the last time he came out to face the tribulation.
Although the village at that time was not very lively, there were about a hundred households of mortals living in it. It could be considered a relatively large village nearby.
However, when they came to the village again, the scene in front of him made him stunned.
In the village, there were piles of bones, and the buildings were in tatters.
As far as his eyes could see, it was a mess.
Akkkk! Akkkk!
From time to time, he could hear one or two strange crows’ cries.
The feeling at the scene was depressing and made his hair stand on end.
“Senior Brother, how could this be?”
Shen Yaoling held Su Xing’s hand tightly, and her face was full of shock.
“Demon race, I can feel a faint demon race aura in this village,” Su Yan’er said with a cold face.
The demon race was a race that people detested. However, Su Yan’er had dealt with them in both her previous life and this one. She had a certain understanding of the vicious behavior of these demon race people.
Wherever they went, not a single chicken or dog was left, not even a blade of grass grew. This had always been the style of the demon race.
Now, the people in this village were probably…
Su Xing brought everyone up into the sky and looked around.
He shook his head.
“Let’s go. There are no more living people here.”
…
The Anita Sect.
In the high-level courtyard of the sect, a candlelight lit up in a dark secret room. The candlelight flickered, and two masked figures walked out.
“How’s the task I gave you coming along?” A masked man asked.
The masked man in front of him slowly took off his veil.
This man was the great elder of the Anita Sect, the representative who represented the Anita Sect to the Clear Water Sect to discuss cooperation. He was also the heartless Daoist who had taken out a letter and framed the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect for the six sect masters’ death!
The heartless Daoist bowed respectfully and said, “Sect Master, the task has been completed.”
“This time, even if the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect jumped into the Yellow River to wash off their sins, it wouldn’t be able to clear their name. The six sects hate them to the bone. We’ll give them a surprise when we take out our own hands!”
Hearing this, the masked man nodded and said mockingly.
“I’ve already heard that the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect has already sent people down the mountain. What you need to do next is to find an opportunity to lead the six great sects to attack the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. When that time comes, you don’t need to care about the rest.”
Hearing this, Daoist Wuxin was stunned.
“Right now, the sects are still focused on exterminating the demon race. I’m afraid that even if I suggest it, no one will listen to me. When that time comes, they will instead suspect me!”
“I will arrange this matter. Don’t worry, they will definitely not find out about you,” the masked man said calmly.
“At that time, His Highness will stir up the conflict between the six great sects and the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. You just have to adapt to the situation.”
Daoist Wuxin responded and suddenly asked.
“Sect Master, why is His Highness targeting the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect?”
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. You just have to do what you’ve been told.”
The man in black stood up, glared at him coldly, and then walked into the darkness.
