After a few breaths, the group of people held their breaths as they made their way to the front of the temple.
Without any hesitation, everyone was silent. They waved their hands, and two groups of people crossed each other's path, covering each other's backs.
The person in the middle took light steps and quickly reached the stairs. He then squatted down and waited for his orders.
"Kill!" The order was given silently. "Boom!" The door of the temple was smashed open!
As the door was smashed open, several tall and sturdy warriors rushed in with long swords in their hands, shouting, "Kill!"
On both sides, there were people attacking at the same time.
Pei Zi Yun broke out in cold sweat. The secret of modern firepower was to attack from all directions at the same time, and destroy the enemy in a split second.
And this attack carried with it the same feeling.
However, the inside of the temple was silent. Twenty warriors followed the person in front of them and rushed into the main hall of the temple!
Their swords shone brightly, and the originally gloomy temple was suddenly filled with killing intent!
However, in the next moment, the leader, who had just charged in with an imposing manner and was about to kill his enemy with lightning speed, could not help but be stunned.
"Eh? No one's here? " The leader stood in the main hall and looked at the empty hall. His heart sank, "Could it be that the information I received was wrong?"
But in the next moment, he saw an incense stick burning in front of the main hall.
The incense stick was giving off a sweet fragrance. It had just been placed in the main hall not long ago, and was emitting a red glow. The entire main hall seemed empty, and it was a little strange.
"Search!" The leader shouted angrily.
The leader's expression changed as he turned to look at the incense stick and exclaimed, "Not good, this incense is poisoned!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the incense stick lit up something in the incense burner. With a loud boom, a fireball exploded. This fireball was like a firework, shooting out in all directions.
"Boom!" In an instant, the entire temple was engulfed in flames, turning into a sea of fire. A few people who were close to the temple could not dodge in time, and screamed out in pain.
"Retreat!" Everyone ran outside, but their limbs were weak, and their bodies were weak. However, the leader was a highly skilled martial artist. With a shout, he took a deep breath and was about to rush out.
Pei Zi Yun was prepared for this. Without saying a word, he drew the bow in his hands and pulled back the bowstring. He looked at the door quietly. This bow was specially requested from the magistrate. It had a strength of two stones, and the arrows on the bowstring were specially made Iron Centipede arrows.
There were only three bows in the entire county!
A person rushed out of the door!
The twang of Pei Zi Yun's bowstring rang out, as an arrow pierced through the flames. The man gave a loud cry, as he attacked with all his might. Sparks flew everywhere.
"Good!" Pei Zi Yun cheered. "Pu!" Another arrow shot out, and the leader was finally unable to completely block it. With a muffled groan, he was hit and fell heavily to the ground.
The tip of the arrow was made of armor-piercing steel. Even if one did not die after being shot, blood would flow incessantly and the armor-piercing power would be strong.
Boom! Pei Zi Yun had been laying out the formation for a long time. The flames were extremely fierce, and in an instant, the entire area around them turned red. The moment the leader landed on the ground, it started burning. It let out a hoarse cry and charged towards Pei Zi Yun.
"You know that you won't be able to survive?"
"Pu!" The long arrow pierced deep into his chest and through his back. The leader let out a groan and looked at the arrow in disbelief. He then looked at Pei Zi Yun as his entire body twitched and fell to the ground. Fresh blood flowed continuously from his wounds.
"Quick, quick, break the window and get out."
Some of the people jumped out of the window. Just as they were in mid-air, they heard a 'pu pu' sound. These people were not as skilled as the leader. The sound of the arrow piercing through flesh was chilling. In mid-air, the leader's body fell to the ground, dead.
"Boom!" The fire had burnt through the roof, and the beams had collapsed, sealing off all escape routes. Pei Zi Yun laughed coldly as he threw his bow aside and pulled out his sword.
"Surround and kill him!" Only seven people managed to escape the sea of fire. One of them shouted, his eyes bloodshot.
Out of the thirty people, only seven or eight remained.
These warriors shouted and raised their swords as they charged forward.
"Die!" Pei Zi Yun grunted coldly. The incense within the temple was incense, and anyone who was affected by it would lose all their strength. The fire would also be fatal. These people were no longer a threat to him.
"Baka!" This person seemed to be a Japanese warrior. As he swung his sword down, Pei Zi Yun's body flashed like a ray of light. The moment they crossed paths, the warrior clutched his throat, unable to speak. Blood flowed from between his fingers.
The people behind did not pay attention to them. At this critical moment of life and death, even if the two warriors were exhausted, they still fought with their lives on the line. Their coordination was flawless as they slashed down, bringing with them wind and thunder.
As long as they could tie down Pei Zi Yun, the brothers behind them would kill this person.
"Earth Collapse Technique!" A scream rang out as one of the warriors' right legs sank into the ground. He had charged too quickly, and his entire right leg was broken. His muscles were torn apart, revealing the white bones underneath.
Their combined attack revealed a flaw. The sword flashed and followed the warrior's movements. It was extremely vicious and ruthless. The warrior on the left was sliced open, and his internal organs were squeezed out of his body. He cried out in pain as he dropped his sword and fell to the ground.
Pei Zi Yun then leapt up and used his sword to defend against the incoming sword.
"Clang!" The warrior's entire body trembled as his sword flew out of his hand. "Pu!" The warrior was struck in mid-air and fell heavily to the ground.
"Shoot!" Without a sound, one of the warriors shot out twelve iron spikes. These spikes were coated with poison. Pei Zi Yun did not attempt to block them. Instead, he leapt up and changed the direction of his falling body to block them. Pu pu sounds could be heard as the spikes pierced into his body. It was as if he had turned into a beehive.
Following which, he transformed into a ray of light as he closed in on the warrior. Fresh blood splattered everywhere.
One of the warriors screamed as he slashed down with his sword. He had a crazed look on his face, as if he could not accept what was happening to him. The sword then sliced through his neck, and his head flew into the air as fresh blood splattered everywhere.
"Spare … me …" The last warrior saw this and fell to his knees, "Don't kill me, don't kill me. Master Top Scorer, please don't kill me."
Pei Zi Yun's face turned cold as he stepped forward and used his sword to remove the man's veil, revealing his face. He was a man around thirty years of age.
Pei Zi Yun didn't even have the chance to interrogate him before the man told him everything that had happened, "Master Top Scorer, I didn't want to come here. It was these pirates who kidnapped me and forced me to lead the way. I beg young master to spare me."
Hearing these words, Pei Zi Yun laughed coldly. He had really been kidnapped by the pirates. He was still wearing a veil and was dressed in black. With a swing of his sword, the man's neck started to bleed.
The man straightened his neck and shouted, "Master Top Scorer, I really didn't know. A Daoist gave me a hundred taels of silver, and I did it. I beg master Top Scorer to spare my life!"
"Die!" At this point, the warrior with the broken leg shouted out as he slashed his sword towards Pei Zi Yun. Pei Zi Yun was taken aback and rolled away. This warrior wasn't trying to kill Pei Zi Yun, but instead aimed his sword at the man who had just attacked him. With a 'pu' sound, fresh blood splattered everywhere.
Pei Zi Yun remained silent. He had been too careless, and had charged forward with his sword. The warrior with the broken leg had leaped into the air, and had used up all his energy. Seeing Pei Zi Yun charging towards him, he gave a bitter laugh and slashed his sword towards his own neck.
"Peng" Fresh blood splattered everywhere as the man fell to the ground. His body trembled as a pool of blood spread out from his wound.
The man who had been targeted by the sword was still alive. Pei Zi Yun rushed forward and placed his hands on the man's body. A white light flashed, and the man started to mumble, "Master Top Scorer, save me. Master Top Scorer, save me."
"Who wants to kill me? What does a Daoist look like? Tell me, I have a way to save you. "Pei Zi Yun spoke as he used the Drought Rain Technique to heal his wound.
The man was overjoyed as he struggled, "Thank you master Top Scorer. Actually, I am one of Ji Bei Hou's men. Tonight, a Daoist gave me a secret order, and ordered me to cooperate …."
Before the man could finish speaking, his face turned ashen, as if he had realized something. A look of regret appeared on his face, and he couldn't speak anymore. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood and internal organs. His pupils dilated as he fell to the ground, lifeless.
"His internal organs have been ruptured, and he can only use the Drought Rain Technique to heal himself. However, I'll be able to get some information out of him." Pei Zi Yun retracted his hand.
The fire was still burning, and the smell of burnt flesh filled the air. Pei Zi Yun took off the masks of the dead men and thought, "Are there any from Japan, soldiers, or even people from the pugilistic world?"
"Ji Bei Hou, the hatred between us is irreconcilable."
"Song Zhi, it seems like you've colluded with Ji Bei Hou. Or rather, you've told him about my location."
"Who's that Daoist?"
"Free Cloud Sect, Holy Jail Sect, or some other sect? Or maybe a rogue cultivator? "
He threw the Dao talisman into the fire, and the entire temple was ablaze. The fire burned for more than an hour.
Pei Zi Yun looked at the fire and waited for the temple to burn out. No matter what, if he left the temple now, he might start a fire. The village wasn't far away.
He wasn't a murderous maniac, nor was he an arsonist. He couldn't do that.
From afar, the village seemed to have noticed him. The sound of a gong could be heard, and shadows of people could be seen. Dogs could be heard barking from afar. He waited for a long time, but nobody came.
As the fire died down, Pei Zi Yun called out to the system. The light from the fire shone on his forehead, and the image of a Plum Blossom could be seen. One petal was white, while the other was light red. Soon after, a small white Plum Blossom appeared in front of his eyes. It grew bigger and bigger until it became a translucent information interface.
"Free Cloud Sect Origin Manual: Level Six."
"Dao Techniques: 31 Types, Advanced."
"Free Cloud Sect Sword Technique: Advanced (35.1% Completion)"
"I've improved!" It wasn't a surprise that he had reached the sixth level of the Free Cloud Sect Origin Manual. It had been a few months since he had reached the sixth level.
It wasn't a surprise that he had reached the advanced level of the Free Cloud Sect Sword Technique. Even though he had the experience of the original owner, his improvement was still slow. He had experienced many battles, and was only at 35.1% completion!
"Indeed, this system isn't the real system. Even though I was assassinated, it didn't give me a mission." Pei Zi Yun sighed as he flipped through the information interface.
'Indeed, this so-called system isn't the real system. Even though I've been assassinated, there's no such thing as a mission.' Pei Zi Yun flipped through the pages and sighed.
Pei Zi Yun looked at the system's last mission. The words were written in red. "Mission: Establish merits, become the top three heroes of the outer sect." Pei Zi Yun thought to himself as he looked at the last mission in the system. The words were written in red. "Mission: Establish merits, become the top three heroes of the outer sect."
At this point, the flames were slowly dying down. It looked like it wouldn't cause a forest fire. Pei Zi Yun didn't hesitate any longer. He turned around and leapt onto his horse.
