The night was dark, and the darkness seemed to be boundless, casting the land under the night sky into darkness. The Black Fire campsite was also pitch-black, and there was almost no light.
The cold wind blew through the air, and Ye felt a little cold. For some reason, when the night wind blew past her, apart from the cold feeling on her skin, there was even a hint of pain as if she was being pricked by needles.
She felt very nervous, and she felt a little breathless. She also felt that the dark sky looked like it would collapse at any moment, crushing everyone here to death.
What made her even more terrified was the black flame in Lu Chen's hand. The burning flame was reflected in her eyes, and her body began to tremble. She covered her lower abdomen with both hands, and then a painful expression appeared on her face.
After a suppressed moan, Ye suddenly knelt on the ground, and then began to twitch like a dying beast.
Soon, a black flame slowly lit up in the depths of her pupils.
Lu Chen seemed unmoved as he watched the young barbarian girl's pained expression. From the beginning to the end, he did not have any intention of helping her. He just watched her coldly. After a while, he withdrew his gaze and looked up at the sky.
He stared at the dark and boundless sky.
It was the high and mighty night.
Then, he smiled coldly, and his eyes were filled with mockery and contempt.
...
The darkness rolled like a surging tide. The night wind suddenly became urgent, and the whistling sound suddenly became mournful. Then, there was a sudden flash of ice-cold blade light in the night.
In the depths of the Black Fire tribe's camp, Leaf shivered. The inexplicable and indescribable pressure on her suddenly disappeared. She sat up and looked back into the distance. She saw countless figures moving in that direction. Roars and roars rose and fell one after another. Impressively, it was an incomparably fierce battle.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. It was Lu Chen walking over. At the same time, the Fire God's Staff had appeared in his hand, and was gradually emitting a bright light.
Lu Chen no longer looked at her, and instead stared into the darkness in the distance. After a moment, he raised the Fire God's Staff and stabbed it into the dark sky. At the same time, he chanted a mysterious and ancient curse, and a dark aura gushed out from his body. With a "boom", large patches of black flames suddenly rose from his body, and danced wildly in the night.
The Fire God's Staff instantly shone brightly, radiating a brilliant light in the night. It was like a sun that suddenly appeared in the darkness, and no one could look directly at it. Then, countless dark auras shot up from the magic staff, and then flew into the dark battlefield, looking for the cursed black lines.
A moment later, angry roars and roars could be heard … like the wild roars of wild beasts. In the darkness, cries of alarm and screams could be heard. Many black figures suddenly grew in size. Even though they were so far away, they could still faintly hear the terrifying sounds of bones cracking.
Yezi had a rough idea of what was happening in the darkness over there. Her eyes were filled with fear. When she looked back and saw the black-robed priest controlling the Fire God's Staff, looking at his demon-like appearance, she only felt that her legs and feet were sore, and her heart seemed to be unable to resist all this horror.
In the distance, the wild roars grew louder and louder. The bloody smell of slaughter was also drifting with the wind, and it became thicker and thicker.
The night, became more and more desolate and dark.
...
This was the first time that Ye, as a woman, was so close to a cruel battlefield of life and death. From the darkness, she could clearly feel the horror of the chaotic battle. All kinds of sounds came to her, and countless images formed in her mind.
The sounds of breaking, howling, screaming, breaking bones and bleeding, falling to the ground, and all kinds of sounds that contained pain and brutality, filled with the smell of slaughter, all came to her ears, one after another.
Ye trembled all over. At that moment, she suddenly felt that she really did not look like a barbarian. But women never had to go to the battlefield. At this time, the black figure standing in front of her seemed to have given her a lot of courage, helping her to block out a lot of darkness.
Because from the beginning to the end, Lu Chen had no intention of joining the battle, and even Ye took advantage of it. She secretly stayed in the same place and did not move.
Then, in the darkness of the night, she heard the clamorous and terrifying voices grow louder and louder. After a long while, they suddenly reached a climax. It was someone howling in pain in the night, with furious roars and roars, as if they were questioning something or cursing at the top of their lungs. Then, darkness fell, and an incomparably thick stench of blood covered everything.
Until, all the sounds began to slowly fade...
Until dawn.
Ye did not sleep for the whole night, nor did she dare to sleep. She was extremely nervous, and at the same time, she had a deep fear. The pain of the extermination of her tribe was still haunting her for so long, and she could not forget it.
When dawn came, everything finally settled. When the morning light shone from the horizon, a new day had begun in the human world, and a new chapter had opened in the Wilderness.
This land, with the dripping blood and horrible corpses, used the cruelest method of sacrificing life to announce the arrival of this day.
When Huo Yan, who was bathed in blood, came to the side of Lu Chen, his face had a trace of exhaustion, but his eyes were very calm. He nodded to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen smiled. Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a noise in front of him. Huo Yan also noticed it, and turned his head to look.
He saw a figure suddenly coming from the crowd. He looked like an ordinary barbarian, but the most obvious difference was that he was wearing a fox's fur on his head.
That was the chief of the Ghost Fox tribe.
In addition, the chief of the Ghost Fox tribe was holding a head in his right hand. It was dripping with blood, as if it had just been chopped off not long ago. Even though the head was already dead, there was still a look of anger on his blood-stained face.
Huo Yan and Lu Chen's eyes fell on the head of the dead man at the same time. That face seemed familiar. They had seen it before, and it was also a chief of a large tribe.
Huo Yan let out a long sigh, and Lu Chen smiled. The two looked at each other, and after a while, Huo Yan suddenly said, "Thank you."
Lu Chen nodded and did not say anything. At this time, the chief of the Ghost Fox tribe had already walked in front of them, and then casually threw the head in front of them. He grinned and said, "The head of the Thunder Lizard tribe is yours."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Well done. You can rest assured about what we promised you."
The chief of the Ghost Fox tribe smiled, and then turned to leave.
Looking at the direction in which he strode, Huo Yan's expression was complicated. After a while, he said in a low voice, "In the past, in the Southern Wilderness, no matter whether the tribe was strong or weak, when there was a fierce battle, we would fight openly to the end. Even if we died, it was only for the honor of our ancestors. We have never … used this kind of method."
Lu Chen turned around, and took the opportunity to pat his shoulder. Then he smiled and said, "It's okay. You will soon get used to this feeling and like it."
After saying this, he walked away. Huo Yan stared at the back of the black-robed priest, and did not say a word.
