Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Xiliang.
In a desolate place.
This was where the Qiang people lived.
Right here, a purple-robed woman was walking on the uneven ground.
Beside her, there was a humanoid figure wrapped in layers of shadows.
This was none other than Zhang Ning.
Zhang Ning had killed no less than thirty Qiang soldiers in the past few days.
The Qiang people were in a state of panic.
No one had seen Zhang Ning's true face, and no one even knew how these Qiang soldiers had died.
But these soldiers all had one thing in common when they died.
It was as if they had been struck by lightning. Their bodies were charred.
But there were also wounds all over their bodies, as if they had been hacked to death by swords.
But the Qiang leader had sent out scouts many times, but they had failed to find any trace of Zhang Ning.
They didn't even know if it was a human who had killed the Qiang soldiers.
Because those who had seen Zhang Ning were all dead.
But the leader had investigated and found that the Xiliang soldiers had always been guarding the border and had never set foot in Qiang territory.
Very quickly, Zhang Ning discovered more than ten Qiang soldiers patrolling the area.
"Damn it, why are we patrolling today?!"
A soldier couldn't help but grumble.
The soldier beside him casually said, "That's right.
"What's there to be afraid of?"
"Ever since the patrolling team has been in trouble, the leader has ordered ten-some of us to work together."
"Ten-some people. Even if we encounter something terrifying, we should be able to fight it."
"Even if we can't, we can just run."
The soldier at the front frowned.
"If you ask me, since something like this has happened, the leader shouldn't have ordered us to patrol."
"If we really encounter it, won't we just be sending ourselves to death?"
"Someone who can control lightning is probably not an ordinary person. It might not even be a human. If we encounter it, we definitely won't be able to defeat it."
The carefree soldier laughed and said, "That's right.
"Forget it. If you ask me, it's just someone who made it look like it was struck by lightning. At most, it's someone with good saber skills."
"If you ask me, the Han dogs must have found a guy who can fight and specially hid in the dark to make a move."
"If we don't patrol, what if that person sneaks into our clan and poses a threat to our leader?"
Hearing his words, the soldier could not help but fall silent.
The carefree soldier waved his hand again.
"No matter what, we should at least know who is behind this."
"Even if only one of us can return, as long as we deliver the message, we won't have died in vain."
"Everything is for the leader!"
The rest of the soldiers nodded in agreement. Only the cowardly soldier could not help but shrink his head.
He was still a little worried that the legend was true.
The Qiang people had a very old legend. It was said that there would be a devil dressed in purple who would descend one day and destroy all humans, taking over as the new god.
Of course, this was just a legend that people gossiped about after a meal.
But the ancient people believed in these nonsensical things.
Therefore, Zhang Ning, who was well aware of this, dressed up as the devil they spoke of and annihilated them one by one.
At this moment, the cowardly soldier suddenly saw two figures in front of him.
Although they were very far away and could not be seen clearly,
The soldier could still vaguely tell that this person was definitely not a Qiang person.
"Who is it?!"
The soldier quickly raised his spear and glared at the newcomer.
But as the person got closer and closer, the Qiang soldiers could not help but be shocked.
A woman in purple!
Next to her was a person shrouded in black gas, making it impossible to see his face!
"Devil, it's a devil!"
The cowardly soldier quickly put down his weapon and ran back.
The soldiers at the front all readied themselves for battle, afraid that the person would come over.
But in the blink of an eye, Zhang Ning's figure appeared in front of a dozen Qiang soldiers!
"The legend is true, the legend is true!"
"There really is a purple-robed devil, a devil!"
A few soldiers at the side immediately shouted hysterically. They hurriedly retreated and tried to escape as soon as possible.
But how could Zhang Ning let Amen go? With a thought, the black figure instantly moved.
It waved the long sword in its hand.
The soldiers were unable to withstand the tyrannical force.
One of the soldiers was even cut in half by the sword.
"Damn it, let's fight it out!"
The remaining soldiers had nowhere to run. They could not outrun it, so they might as well fight with their lives. Perhaps there was a chance of survival.
The remaining dozen or so soldiers quickly raised their weapons and surrounded the black shadow to stab it.
But just as the spear pierced through the black figure, something even more shocking happened.
The spear came out from the other side of the black figure, but there was no blood!
The black figure seemed to be completely fine. With a backhand slash, the soldier holding the spear fell to the ground. Then, it reached out and slowly pulled the spear out.
"It's definitely not human! It's not human! "
The remaining soldiers were terrified and completely lost their will to fight.
But in a short period of time, the black figure killed all the remaining soldiers without exception.
Then, the black figure seemed to have lost all its strength. The long sword in its hand fell heavily to the ground, followed by its huge body.
The black figure's true identity was Zhang Ning's straw man.
"Just trash that can't withstand a single blow."
Zhang Ning sneered and began to activate the spell.
Soon, the sky was filled with dark clouds. A bolt of lightning struck the corpses on the ground, including the straw man.
Soon, all the soldiers were struck by the lightning.
The soldiers who had only fainted or lost their ability to move were struck by the lightning. They instantly died and turned into charcoal.
Zhang Ning's eyes showed no mercy.
After summoning the lightning, Zhang Ning suddenly spat out blood. His body swayed and he almost fell.
It seemed that forcefully activating the lightning technique and the human spell had taken a toll on Zhang Ning.
Now, the backlash in Zhang Ning's body had spread a little.
Although it was not as bad as Yu Ji's, it was about 50%.
After all, Zhang Ning was old. If he continued to use it like this, it would only cause permanent damage to his body.
But Zhang Ning did not care.
She had seen with her own eyes that her adoptive parents, who had kindly taken her in, had been killed by the Qiang people.
Therefore, in Zhang Ning's eyes, be it the Qiang, the Hu, or the Xiongnu, they were all existences that deserved to die.
After calming himself down, Zhang Ning activated the spell again and stood up.
