Li Long pointed in a direction, and Liu Hong strode over. The Iron Fist was not particularly skilled in movement techniques, but he took seven or eight steps longer with each step than a regular person. His sleeves fluttered in the wind, and he did not slow down at all. Before long, he arrived where the Black Wind mountain bandits had stopped and set up a campfire. Only a few corpses remained there now, and a few wolves were currently gnawing on the corpses. They raised their heads and let out threatening howls when they heard the noise.
Liu Hong snorted coldly like a clap of thunder. The wolves howled and fled in fright. Liu Hong examined the corpses. "This really is the power of the Stone Splitter bow. Huang Binghu has actually given away his famed weapon. Is he Huang Binghu's disciple? No, with that sickly tiger's martial arts, he can't raise a disciple like that.
"Though, since he's given the Stone Splitter bow to him, Huang Binghu probably intends for him to take over as hunting chief. No wonder he's not afraid of the Black Wind stronghold. As long as he returns to the Drawn Reins village, the Black Wind stronghold won't be able to do anything to him. It's not like they can destroy the Drawn Reins village."
"Does Li Qingshan really want to kill them all?" The smell of blood stung his nostrils, and Li Long trembled slightly. He had practised martial arts for over a decade, so fighting and brawling was nothing out of the ordinary for him. However, with the influence of the Iron Fist in Qingyang city, he did not have a corresponding opponent to fight him to the death. At most, he would teach a lesson to some ignorant hooligan or passer-by of the jianghu. He had never seen so many corpses before.
"Since we've become sworn enemies, we obviously have to kill them all. A 'Long, it's just too easy in Qingyang city. Originally, with your talent, your skills should have been much greater than this." Liu Hong felt like it was only natural, so he taught a lesson to his disciple.
Li Long stammered, unable to reply.
Liu Hong continued to examine the corpses. "Hmm? These wounds are so strange!" He discovered a bandit who had died from having his throat slit.
"What's so strange about it?"
"This bandit died in a pile of people. Look at his expression and posture when he died. He doesn't seem to have reacted at all."
"What's this all about?" Afterwards, he discovered many other bandit corpses with the same wounds. Li Long's heart shivered as he imagined the strange sight. He could not help but look around. The dark mountains and forests seemed to be hiding ghosts. Only when he saw Liu Hong did he feel much more at ease.
"As long as your movement technique is good enough, you can achieve that. However, across the entire Qingyang, only the sect master of the Dragon's Gate sect can rival a movement technique like that. Not only does this Li Qingshan have assistance, but he's very powerful as well." No matter how experienced Liu Hong was in the jianghu, he couldn't guess that the mountain bandits couldn't react because they couldn't see the enemy.
They followed the tracks left on the ground and went deep into the mountains. The corpses of the bandits were as obvious as road signs.
Some fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, while others died from having their throats slit.
Li Qingshan had grabbed him by the neck. Back then, he had not been very afraid, but now, he actually felt lingering fear.
They discovered another bandit's corpse. Li Long said, "The bandits are all dead. Only the third boss remains." Afterwards, they discovered a pony that had collapsed on the ground, foaming at the mouth.
Before long, Liu Hong stopped and gazed below a large tree. Even he, an experienced member of the jianghu, was extremely shocked. The blood had spread very far. The smell of blood was even heavier than around the campfire where most of the bandits had died Just Now.
With just a single glance, Li Long could not help but vomit, as if he wanted to vomit up all the horrors he had seen tonight.
For the entire night, the third boss seemed to be submerged in a nightmare that he could not wake up from. The people around him died one by one, while the god of death closed in on him step by step.
The third boss circulated his movement technique and desperately fled towards the Black Wind stronghold. Although he was not as fast as the Dragon's Gate sect, perhaps the danger had stimulated his potential, so he was not slow at all.
The sinister wind circled around him, chasing him closely. He did not dare to stop at all. Only when he had expended all of his inner qi did he stop. He stopped under a large tree and panted heavily.
Looking down the slope, he could already see the traces of the Black Wind stronghold. Just as he smiled …
"Twang!"
The arrow whistled through the air, piercing through his thigh and nailing deep into the tree trunk. Withered leaves fell like rain.
The third boss ignored the intense pain. He looked at the terrifying figure walking out of the forest with a smile on his face. He was like a hunter who had caught his prey that he had been chasing for a long time. The bowstring in his hand was still vibrating.
"This is the end, third boss!"
"I admit defeat today. The jianghu is a small place, so why not make friends? Ah!" In such a dangerous moment, the third boss actually took on the attitude of a hoodlum and began to speak in the jianghu. However, before he could finish, an arrow pierced through him.
"Don't mention that word, because you're not worthy. Come, speak. Tell me everything about the Black Wind stronghold. How many people do you have? How many bosses do you have? What martial arts does the first boss practice?"
"If I tell you, will you spare me?" The third boss was covered in sweat. He was in pain and fear.
Li Qingshan considered it for a moment. "No. I already said that you must die today. I'll give you a quick death!" He did not even need to lie. He just told the third boss clearly that he wanted to kill him. He could tell him or not.
The third boss said, "Fuck you. If you want to kill me, come at me. Let's see if I'll even frown."
Li Qingshan smiled coldly. "That's exactly what I wanted!" A red light that even he did not notice flowed in the depths of his eyes.
Li Long forced himself to calm down, but his eyes avoided the corpse under the tree. "Master, should we continue chasing?"
Liu Hong waved his hand. "There's no need. With such a star of evil appearing, the jianghu will be filled with trouble from now on." He had seen many ruthless people in the jianghu. This third boss was not inferior to them.
However, it was rare to see someone so ruthless and merciless as soon as they entered the jianghu. Who wouldn't want to vomit a few times? Only after experiencing many life and death experiences could one's heart gradually harden.
Li Long said, "He's only a third-rate martial artist. He relied on a sneak attack to heavily injure the third boss. Why does master care so much about him?"
Liu Hong said, "I can only tell you that there are many people like this in the jianghu. Not a single one of them is weak. Any martial arts in the hands of such people can display extraordinary power. Do not carelessly make an enemy out of them."
"Why is that?" Li Long did not understand. Could it be that being vicious and merciless meant that one's martial arts were high?
"The essence of martial arts lies in killing."
However, Li Qingshan, who was regarded as a star of evil by Liu Hong, was currently kneeling by the stream and vomiting. His tears flowed down his face as he vomited.
In the end, the third boss' bones were not as hard as he had said. He told Li Qingshan everything he wanted to know in full detail. All he wanted was to die.
After killing the third boss, the red light in his eyes dimmed. He seemed to have realized what he had done. He had used an incomparably cruel method to torture a living person. But that was not all. What was more frightening was that he felt great pleasure from it.
What's going on with me?
A cow's hoof stepped into the stream. Li Qingshan raised his head. Oxen looked at him and said with a tone that seemed to be praising and mocking, "You're becoming more and more like a demon!"
