The remaining disciples were still fearless as they charged forward one after another. When someone died, they would immediately replace him. Soon, there were more than a dozen withered corpses on the ground. However, they had the advantage in numbers, so they could bring the Frost Spirit Iron and Heaven's Slayer Rune back to the Black Ear tribe.
"For the tribe!"
Zhang Daliang shouted to the sky as if he had gone mad. He charged towards Mu Yun and Bai Gu Cheng.
Now that Zhang Daliang was at the end of his rope, he was naturally no match for Mu Yun and Bai Gu Cheng. However, if he fought with his life on the line, he could delay the two of them and give the tribe's disciples a chance to escape.
"For the tribe!"
The Black Ear tribe's disciples were also shouting as if they were a bunch of lunatics.
"Hurry up and chase after them!"
Mu Yun and Bai Gu Cheng knew that the situation was serious and immediately sent people to chase after them. However, they were entangled by Zhang Daliang and couldn't get away for a while.
Miao Yujing and Miao Yutong immediately led people to chase after them. The Black Ear tribe left behind a dozen people to cover their retreat.
"For the tribe!"
These dozen or so people also shouted their slogans and charged forward without any fear of death.
Under their cover, the Black Ear tribe successfully took away the Heaven's Slayer Rune. No one could catch up to them.
Mu Yun and Bai Gu Cheng saw that the situation was hopeless and their faces turned ugly.
"Damn it!"
Bai Gu Cheng was furious and slapped Zhang Daliang's head.
Zhang Daliang could no longer hold on and had no strength to fight back. Bai Gu Cheng's slap exploded his head.
Zhang Daliang's headless corpse stood on the spot like a towering mountain. It didn't fall and was still in a fighting posture.
Mu Yun didn't say a word. She didn't expect Zhang Daliang to be so fierce. For the tribe's survival, he didn't hesitate to sacrifice himself to snatch the Heaven's Slayer Rune.
It seemed that the witch was well prepared this time. The people she brought with her were all fearless.
Now that the Heaven's Slayer Rune had fallen into the witch's hands, the consequences were unimaginable.
Bai Gu Cheng was about to explode. He didn't get the rune and even lost the Imperial City Sword.
"Brat, it's all your fault. If you had joined hands with me earlier and killed this lunatic, would we have fallen to this extent?"
Bai Gucheng flew into a rage and tossed the Imperial City Sword onto the ground. His sword had already been reduced to scrap metal after being struck by the Heavenly Slayer runes.
Mu Yun was secretly amused when she heard his words. During the day, it was clearly Bai Gu Cheng who wanted to join forces with Zhang Daliang to deal with her. Now that Bai Gu Cheng was defeated, he was blaming her instead.
Mu Yun was too lazy to argue with him. The current situation was not good. The Black Ear Tribe had snatched the Heavenly Slayer Rune. He had to think of a way to deal with it.
"You're finished. Mu Yun, you're all dead meat. The Black Ears tribe has snatched the Heavenly Slayer Rune. Let's see how you're going to die."
Gritting his teeth, Bai Gu Cheng waved his hand and yelled at the surrounding disciples, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he angrily left with his men. He didn't even want the Imperial City Sword anymore since it had already turned into scrap metal.
"Sir, what should we do?"
Miao Yujing and Miao Yutong walked over worriedly. They hadn't expected Zhang Daliang to be so powerful. He was willing to risk his life to snatch the Heavenly Slayer Rune.
"You guys go back first and tell the Cat Queen."
Mu Yun's face was gloomy. Now that the Heavenly Slayer Rune had been snatched by the Black Ears tribe, the situation wasn't good. He had to tell Miao Xuanyi as soon as possible so that she could make arrangements.
Miao Yujing asked, "Sir, what about you?"
"I'll bring some men over to take a look. Now that Zhang Daliang is dead, the Great Witch is only left with Zhang Dajiao as her guard. If I have the chance to assassinate the Great Witch, things will be easier."
Mu Yun remained calm. Although the current situation was difficult, it wasn't irreversible. As long as the Great Witch was assassinated, there would be a chance to turn the situation around.
"Sir, you have to be careful."
Miao Yujing sighed. Assassinating the Great Witch was easier said than done.
The next morning, Mu Yun brought some men to the vicinity of the Black Ears tribe.
The Black Ears tribe was surrounded by trenches and city walls. It was impossible to sneak in.
"You guys stay here to support me. I'll go in and take a look."
Mu Yun looked at his disciples and said.
"Sir, how are you going to get in?"
Everyone was surprised. Now that the Black Ears tribe was guarding the city, there were a large number of disciples patrolling the area. It was impossible to get close.
Looking at the situation, he could only wait until the sky turned dark and find an opportunity to sneak in.
However, time was of the essence. The longer he delayed, the more dangerous the situation would be. Mu Yun didn't want to wait any longer.
"Instant Kill Ghost Sword!"
Mu Yun's body suddenly disappeared from the spot. He directly teleported away.
Everyone suddenly realized that Mu Yun knew the secret technique of teleportation. He could easily avoid the eyes and ears of others and sneak into the city.
Swish Swish …
Mu Yun's figure appeared in the Black Ears tribe at the foot of the city wall.
Coincidentally, a patrolling disciple walked over. When he saw Mu Yun suddenly appear, he was shocked. Just as he was about to shout, Mu Yun swung his sword and cut his throat.
Mu Yun dragged the corpse to the side alley and changed into the patrolling disciple's uniform. He pulled up his hat to cover his head so that others wouldn't see his ears.
On the surface, he looked like an ordinary disciple of the Black Ears tribe.
Without making a sound, he quietly entered the tribe.
The war was still going on. There were no civilians on the streets. They were all soldiers and disciples with weapons. The entire tribe was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.
When Mu Yun passed by a stall on the street, he heard someone talking.
"I heard that General Zhang Daliang didn't hesitate to sacrifice himself for the tribe. He wanted to get the Divine Slayer rune."
"Alas, it's a pity that General Zhang Daliang, such a good man, died just like that."
"However, our tribe got the Divine Slayer rune. We finally got through the crisis."
"Now, we just need to wait for the witch to refine the rune. Then, we can counterattack the Cat Queen."
"I'm afraid that the rune's curse is too vicious. Even the witch can't refine it."
…
Mu Yun secretly listened to their discussion. It seemed that the Divine Slayer rune had fallen into the witch's hands. However, she hadn't refined it yet.
After all, the curse of the Divine Slayer rune was too powerful. It wasn't easy to refine it.
"Since the Divine Slayer rune is still here, I still have a chance."
Mu Yun did not say anything and quietly walked forward. Now, the entire tribe was filled with a strange aura.
This aura was the aura of aging. Mu Yun quickly found the source of the aura. It was in the palace in front of him.
He quietly approached and came to the palace in front of him. The palace was decorated magnificently. Without a doubt, it was the witch's residence. Mu Yun had already sensed the aura of the Divine Slayer rune.
"Hey, what are you doing? The palace is an important place. Outsiders are not allowed to come close."
As soon as Mu Yun approached the palace, he was reprimanded by the gatekeeper.
"Sorry, sorry."
Mu Yun retreated to the side. When no one was paying attention, he immediately used the Instakill Ghost Sword. He teleported and sneaked into the palace.
He quietly walked toward the place where the Divine Slayer rune's aura was emitted. He didn't encounter anyone along the way. Everyone couldn't withstand the aging aura and ran away.
Mu Yun effortlessly came to the depths of the palace. He saw a beautiful woman sitting cross-legged in a large hall.
She was a graceful and elegant feline girl. She was lying lazily on the carpet in the hall. There was a twisted and strange ore floating above her head. It was the Frost Spirit Iron. And on the Frost Spirit Iron, there was a large "Slayer" word imprinted on it.
Without a doubt, this was the Divine Slayer rune.
Beside the feline girl, there was a general. He was burly and looked similar to Zhang Daliang. He must be Zhang Dajiao.
If Zhang Dajiao was here, where was the witch?
Mu Yun was puzzled. He didn't see the witch in the hall. Instead, the feline girl was very beautiful and seductive. She gave off a noble and dignified feeling.
"Lady Witch, this rune's curse is very strong. It's not easy to refine," Zhang Dajiao said with a worried expression.
"Yes, it's indeed not easy to refine," the feline girl said lazily. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the Divine Slayer rune's light.
"She's the witch?"
Mu Yun was shocked. He imagined the witch to be an old woman, but he didn't expect her to be such a graceful and noble woman.
"Lady Witch, what do you plan to do? If you forcefully refine it, you might become old," Zhang Dajiao said in a deep voice.
"I can die, but I can't become old."
The witch's eyes turned cold, and her expression was a little stern.
Zhang Dajiao didn't say a word.
The witch said slowly, "General Zhang, your two brothers have sacrificed their lives for the tribe. What are your plans?"
Zhang Dajiao was stunned. He had a bad premonition and said, "Lady Witch, what do you mean?"
The witch smiled coldly and said, "I want to borrow something from you."
Zhang Dajiao took a step back. His scalp was numb. He said, "Lady Witch, what do you want to borrow?"
The witch said, "Your head."
Zhang Dajiao trembled and said, "I … I only have one head. This … this can't be lent. Lady Witch, you must be joking."
The witch said, "To refine the Divine Slayer rune, you have to pay a price. I plan to sacrifice you. This way, I can refine it smoothly and don't have to risk the danger of becoming old."
Zhang Dajiao's face darkened. He said, "Lady Witch, I can fight to the death for the tribe, but I can't accept dying in such a cowardly way."
"Haha, you still want to bargain? Die!"
The witch's expression turned cold. She waved her slender hand, and a tyrannical force whizzed out.
"You old witch, I served you for so many years in vain. You actually want to kill me!"
Zhang Dajiao was furious. He immediately pulled out his long saber and prepared to fight.
However, the ring on the witch's hand suddenly emitted a strange light. This light enveloped Zhang Dajiao's body. Zhang Dajiao, who was still full of fighting spirit, immediately fell down and fainted. He even started snoring.
"Sleepless Ring, that ring is the Sleepless Ring!"
Mu Yun was shocked. The ring on the witch's hand was undoubtedly the Sleepless Ring, one of the seven great ornaments.
This Sleepless Ring was more powerful than his Nether Void Earrings, Rotten Corpse Jade Pendant, and Evil Charm Necklace. This was because the Sleepless Ring had a sleeping curse that could make people fall asleep.
