It was already late at night, and the shadows of the trees were heavy. The road in the forest was overgrown with weeds, and it had already been reduced to a semi-deserted state. It was late at night, and there were no signs of people.
However, it was the best place for hunting.
In the depths of the forest, there were shadows. Pairs of eyes in the dark were shining with a cruel light. They were hunters grinding their teeth and sucking their claws, waiting for their prey to walk into the trap.
Suddenly, a faint sound of a carriage came from afar. Although the sound was far away, it was particularly ear-piercing in the silent night.
"They're here." Then, a masked figure came to Defeating Armies and reported. His movements were so light that there was no sound. "One man and five women. The man is outside, and the women are inside."
Si Tiantai's Defeating Armies lowered his voice and asked, "Did you see the Heavenly Lady? Is she in the carriage? "
"She's in the carriage." The masked man said with certainty.
"Alright, get ready." As Defeating Armies responded, he pulled up his mask and drew his weapon. He was ordered by Mu Zixuan to kill the Heavenly Lady, Ling Xin, who was being taken to Jinping Mountain Villa. Mount Qingcheng and Jinping Mountain Villa were both in the middle of Sichuan, and they were not far from each other. If they traveled day and night, they would arrive in a day. Therefore, there were not many places for an ambush. This was the most suitable place.
As soon as he gave the order, there was a slight sound of friction. More than ten weapons around him were pulled out, and a cold light flashed across, adding some coldness to the autumn night.
At this moment, there was an untimely murmur. "I say, boss, I don't plan on leaving anyone alive. This Taoist uses a sword. If you want to make a move, at least give me a suitable weapon!" The messenger just now waved the machete in his hand in dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, why don't we keep them alive? The female disciples of Youtan Pure Sect are definitely inexperienced. Isn't it better to keep them alive to play? Moreover, there's also the legendary Heavenly Lady. Hehe, I'll let you know that my Vajra Pestle is better than the Vajra Sword I'm used to. "The masked man with two wheels in one hand laughed wretchedly.
"Quiet. Don't forget the order! "Defeating Armies suppressed his voice and shouted, but he felt helpless in his heart.
Of the two people who spoke just now, the one with the machete used to be called Taoist Yufeng. He used to be registered in the Taoist Master Mansion on Mount Longhu and obtained a place to rest and cultivate. However, he took advantage of the decline of the Taoist Master Mansion to steal the secret manual of the Taoist Master Mansion's unique skill, the "Qi Penetrating Dragon and Tiger". After he failed, he killed 13 people from the Taoist Master Mansion and fled to Chang 'an. Later, he was captured by Si Tiantai when he killed people in Chang' an to rob the treasure and hurt the civilians.
The man with the two wheels was Zen Master Blood Lion from the Western Region. He was quite famous for his secret Diamond Sword. After he came to the Central Plains, he did not know the rules of the Central Plains. He raped and killed women to practice the Happy Zen. He was also captured by Si Tiantai and imprisoned in the God Imprisoning Prison.
The rest of them were probably the same. Si Tiantai had set up the God Imprisoning Prison to guard the two capitals and imprison the cultivators who had committed crimes in Chang 'an and Luoyang. This caused the xiuzhe of the two capitals to not offend the heavens above and the commoners below. This was supposed to be a righteous act that would make people applaud, but few people knew that there was a hidden mystery in it.
In the sunless prison, no one would know that a few prisoners who had committed the most heinous crimes would die every year. Even if they knew, they would only applaud.
Therefore, every year, there would be a suitable candidate who would "die". From then on, their crimes would be erased and they would no longer exist in the world.
What was not known was that for every person who "died" in the God Imprisoning Prison, Mu Zixuan would have one more "Death Owl" under his command.
Mu Zixuan made use of Si Tian's righteous act to secretly select suitable prisoners from the God Imprisoning Prison, taking them under his wing and forming them into a team to serve as his hidden spies that had yet to be revealed.
"Death Owl" was the name given to those prisoners. It symbolized that they had died once. Their faces were disfigured and they had thrown away their past. Heaven and Earth could not tolerate them. Only by relying on Mu Zixuan could they have the value to exist.
Those who could be selected from many prisoners to be "Death Owls" were naturally skilled, but it also meant that these criminals were extremely difficult to control. Even Defeating Armies could not suppress them.
Fortunately, there was no need to suppress them now.
"Clop clop clop!" The sound of horse hooves broke through the dark night.
He saw a horse carriage moving along the road. The person driving the carriage was none other than Ying Feiyang.
"Death Owl, listen to my command — —" Defeating Armies's eyes were tightly locked. Ying Feiyang suddenly revealed a terrifying light, "Do it!"
- = - = - =
Driving alone at night was a monotonous and tedious task. Adding to the fact that they had been traveling day and night, Ying Feiyang could not help but feel tired.
Ying Feiyang was thinking about changing the driver after they passed this part of the road. Suddenly, he heard several loud "Boom!" sounds coming from both sides.
Ying Feiyang was suddenly alarmed. He felt the moonlight above him dim, as if something heavy was pressing down on him. He immediately pulled the reins.
"Ang!" The front hooves of the horse were pulled into the air, forcefully stopping the horse from moving forward. At the same time, several thick wooden stakes fell from the sky, piercing five feet in front of the horse.
If Ying Feiyang had been slightly slower, the entire carriage would have been nailed by the wooden stakes.
However, even so, the carriage that was rapidly turning still slammed into the wooden wall formed by the wooden stakes due to inertia.
"Bang!" Accompanied by the sound of the collision, the accompanying Youtan Pure Sect disciples in the carriage cried out in pain.
"Aiya! Why did it suddenly stop! "
"Brother Ying! What's wrong! "
"There's an enemy attack!" Ying Feiyang shouted. However, just as he shouted, he felt a sense of oppression coming towards him. An axe, a saber, two short halberds, and two steel whips. Four figures came from four directions and pressed down on him.
Ying Feiyang had nowhere to hide. He could only take it head-on. With a flash of cold light, the Star Discipline Sword spun like a wheel and went straight for him.
The long sword spun rapidly, but the sword force was heavy and steady. It was the Black Tortoise Motionless Sword Force.
There was a sound of collision. The sword wheel blocked the four weapons at the same time and was still stable.
However, although Ying Feiyang blocked the move, the horse under him could not withstand the force. It knelt on the ground. If not for most of the force being dissipated by Ying Feiyang, it would have been crushed into meat paste.
The horse knelt on the ground and lost its balance. Ying Feiyang could not take advantage of the situation to counterattack. At the same time, he was restrained. Another seven figures landed and waved their weapons. A strong wind enveloped the entire carriage.
"What kind of demon is this? How dare you be impudent!"
The Youtan Pure Sect disciples in the carriage were also elites in the sect. They naturally reacted and rushed out of the carriage to protect the surroundings. At that moment, they either activated their spells or controlled their numinous treasures to fight the enemies.
However, Daoist Yu Feng and Zen Master Blood Lion were no longer restrained. They smashed into the carriage that was riddled with holes.
Looking through the broken carriage wall, only Goddess Ling Xin was left in the carriage. She was facing the two villains alone and was still unconscious.
Her soft and delicate appearance made people feel pity for her. She was like a sleeping orchid, completely unaware of the storm that was coming.
"What a beauty! It's a pity to kill her! "Zen Master Blood Lion looked greedily at Goddess Ling Xin's sleeping face and licked his scarlet tongue.
"Stop talking nonsense. Attack!" Daoist Yu Feng was not as lustful as Zen Master Blood Lion. At that moment, he raised his saber and slashed at Goddess Ling Xin without hesitation.
"Danger!" There was a cry of alarm, but it was too late to stop it. In the next moment, the long saber slashed down and scarlet blood splashed all over the carriage curtain!
"My hand!" Daoist Yu Feng was stunned. Looking at his broken right arm, he let out a heart-wrenching scream and staggered out of the carriage.
The shout of "Danger!" was not made by Ying Feiyang. It did not come from Ying Feiyang's side, but from Defeating Armies, who had yet to make a move.
In that decisive moment just now, Defeating Armies sensed a cold glint flash through the slits of the sleeping goddess's eyes. The killing intent caused his entire body to involuntarily shiver, and he couldn't help but let out a breath.
But it was too late. The hunter had become the prey.
Ling Xin, who seemed to be in a deep slumber, suddenly made a move. Her technique was extremely exquisite, and before Daoist Yu Feng could react, the saber in his hand had already appeared in Ling Xin's hand. With a flick of her wrist, Ling Xin had already severed Daoist Yu Feng's arm from the shoulder.
The unexpected change stunned Zen Master Blood Lion. He did not react until Daoist Yu Feng's blood splashed on his face. With a roar, the two wheels in his hands flew out. Two turned into four, four turned into eight. Accompanied by the sharp sound of cutting air, the wheels swept toward Goddess Ling Xin's neck.
Although the move was fierce, it was still too late. After cutting off Daoist Yu Feng's arm with the saber, Goddess Ling Xin didn't stop. Instead, she slashed back at Zen Master Blood Lion without hesitation.
The rotating long saber drew a perfect circle. Everywhere it passed, everything was cut in half, and the layers of wheel shadows were also cut. Only the cold saber light overflowed from the carriage and disappeared in a flash.
"Crack!"
A neat circle of saber marks appeared on the dilapidated carriage. The upper part of the carriage slid down along the slanted saber marks.
Zen Master Blood Lion's eyes widened in disbelief. A bloody mark appeared on his neck. Before he could let out a scream, he fell backward.
In the blink of an eye, the situation of certain death had become a situation where one was dead and the other was injured. Not only did Goddess Ling Xin not die, she stood there with her saber in hand while her black hair fluttered while scarlet red blood splattered onto her white dress and face that was like white jade, and it overlapped together to form a horrifying yet beautiful scene.
"Ha, for his little sister, he is willing to risk everything." Ying Feiyang chuckled. He seemed to be relieved. Then, he launched his counterattack.
The Four Element King Sword was activated. The Northern Water turned into Eastern Wood, the Black Tortoise turned into Azure Dragon, and the Stellar Discipline Sword absorbed the Wood Spiritual Qi in the forest and added it to the sword. Then, a dragon roar pierced through the air. Ying Feiyang turned into an Azure Dragon and soared into the sky, tearing apart the killing net of the four enemies.
He was not the only one who flew out. Ying Feiyang grabbed the reins of the horses and lifted them up.
"Take her away first."
At the same time, Goddess Ling Xin grabbed the suitcase of clothes from the carriage and threw it at Ying Feiyang.
