Chapter 593 - The fall of Wolf Fang Sect (3)

Chapter 593

(Unedited)

…

Shin Jiao was caught by surprise of the two things he noticed in this battle. First is the appearance of an explosive. He never would have thought that in this ancient times setting where technology is like that in the dark ages, someone is able to discover the use of explosives. And from the looks of it, the explosion seems to be an equivalent of gun powder.

The second thing is that his opponent has a corpse body. Unlike zombies or the undead, the man in black cloak can actually move and talk, like a normal human. According to his knowledge, these beings are called ghouls.

Ghouls are vicious creatures, half living and half dead. Plus they have the ability to think and act like a normal person. However, they have the tendency and desire to devour people. And it seems that in the case of the black-cloaked man, his desire is to devour the black Qi.

He saw the man in black cloak running away from the assaulting crowd of Wolf Fang Bandit sect disciples. Shin Jiao didn't chase as his goal is to try and absorb every bit of Black Qi from the villagers outside the gate.

He could hear the sound of an explosion which is around a kilometer away, and he knew that the fighting is still happening. So he concentrated on absorbing the Black Qi. After roughly an hour has passed, and the people have already noticed the figure of Shin Jiao. Those who are sick didn't bother with his sneaky action and just sit on the ground waiting for their turn.

They knew not who this guy is, and from the cover on his face, it seems that he didn't want them to know him. However, judging from the people he touches and felt strength coming back to their bodies, they all knew that he is some miracle doctor here to save them.

"This is the last group…" Shin Jiao muttered as he looks at the 20 people in front of him.

However, he noticed that one of the young women holding an old man in that group of people is exuding a strong baleful aura.

When he looks at that young woman, he felt a sense of familiarity deep inside him. When their eyes met, the woman who looks like she was crying a while ago suddenly showed a strange and sinister smile on her face.

Upon seeing her, Shin Jiao immediately thought of something.

"Not good!" he muttered as he quickly moves to intercept the suddenly claw being retracted out of the old man's body.

That claw is being directed towards an unassuming young man who is resting his back on the city wall while on his lap lays a young girl wearing a hemp cloth. The sinister gaze and the sharp teeth of that young woman, made Shin Jiao's heart goes, thump.

A name of a vicious race immediately came to his mind, demon.

That woman looks like one of the demons he has encountered when he was in the desert fighting along with the cultivators. In that war, he has encountered numerous types of demons plus with the information provided by Agnes the demon queen, he is aware of the types of demons which have entered this world.

Right now, he is facing a demon which can be considered as an immortal. They live by devouring the blood essence of their prey, and their strength and speed are faster than normal human beings. Most of them could only walk in the night and would burn when the sun hits their skin.

They are impervious to weapons made by man, and could only die when their essence is destroyed. Some say that it's their heart, while others say that it's their head, but Shin Jiao learned that it's their blood essence that can keep them alive. That is why only when they are burned, can they die.

And right now, he is actually facing against one of these horrifying demons, a vampire.

He also learned of these in the folklore on earth, and from cross-referencing what he has learned, he already has an idea on how to defeat the demon. But of course, he would not give up the chance to absorb more of that dark Qi from her body.

Clang!

A loud sound reverberates through the air making the onlookers suddenly take a step back.

But before anyone can react. A loud scream was heard from a young woman sitting next to the old man.

This is because she saw the old man's body slowly shriveled and slowly turned into a mummified like a corpse. The horrifying scene made the young woman truly afraid.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has extended a gleaming sword blocking the claws of the vampire.

The woman didn't hesitate to suddenly turn around and flew to the trees. She knew that the person she is facing is skilled and didn't want to be entangled with him. If the soldiers cornered her, even with her strength she would be in danger. So escaping is the only way to survive.

And true to her decision, after she flew away, the footsteps of the soldiers can be heard marching out of the city.

"These people are the only ones who are infected, the rest are already cured! Get them inside the city now!" Shin Jiao shouted to the soldier standing on the side.

He didn't think twice as his figure followed the vampire and also vanished.

The people look in a daze as they didn't know what is happening. How could such supernatural beings appear right in front of their eyes? A monster and a deity, if they tell this story to their family and peers, who knows if they would believe them?

…

Shin Jiao did not hesitate to follow the flying figure of the woman ahead. However, he is controlling his speed as to not make the woman be aware of his presence. He even expertly concealed his breath so that the demon could not detect him.

And so with that, he follows.

Not long later, he saw the woman going through a mountain path, and then when she reached the bend, she stopped.

Using his contact lenses, he expends a small amount of energy in his sphere and activated it to see the woman's aura. He observed and waited for a while as the woman seems to be standing in the same spot as if waiting for something or someone.

Not long later, a figure suddenly appears from above and landed in front of her.

"Ah… I knew it. These two are in cahoots with each other." Shin Jiao thought as he silently crouches behind a tree while watching the two's aura.

The two seem to be talking with each other as if in a discussion. Then suddenly, the man seems to turn to his direction and his heart skipped a beat.

"Did they discover me?" Shin Jiao muttered to himself.

But he is sure that he did all he could to hide his presence. How could they discover him? However, he immediately scanned his body with suspicion and still found nothing.

However, before he could react he heard some footsteps from behind and then some small sounds from high up the trees. Upon hearing this, he immediately acted and pulls out a ghillie suit from his ring. He didn't have time to wear it and just donned it on his body.

Now he looks like some weed at the side of the tree.

As soon as he was able to hide, he saw multiple figures coming out from the forest and surrounding the two up ahead. Then a boisterous voice echoed through the air.

"Haha… So it was the two of you who caused this great disaster to fall upon our land. But since we have you in our hands, you should not think of escaping. You dare kill members of our Wolf Fang Bandit sect; you should not expect to live."

From the crowd, a huge burly man with a bare top and two large spiky bone clubs on each of his hands walked forward.

"I am the deputy leader of the outer sect assault group. You two will die by my hands." The man added as he suddenly runs forward charging towards the two small figures.

The man was really huge that the black-cloaked man and the vampire lady look like children. And every step he takes shakes the ground like a small tremor.

The two figures just look at each other and with a nod, the black-cloaked man takes a step forward. Taking a fighting stance he suddenly punches forward as soon as the burly man is within his reach.

Wham!

A loud sound exploded from the contact of two opposing forces.

The large man swung one of his clubs and meets the incoming fist of the black-cloaked man. However, the two figures didn't move and stayed in that position for a while. From the looks of it, the two have the same amount of strength.

The burly man suddenly showed a happy smile on his face.

"Haha… you are very strong I like that… Hmm… Your fighting stance is a bit familiar. Anyway, I will enjoy this fight and enjoy my time killing you. And then… Hehe… I will enjoy your woman." The burly man said with a sinister grin on his face.

Without another word, he swung his other club with the goal to flatten the black-cloaked man. However, the black-cloaked man didn't bat an eye and just lifted his hand, and forming his hands in a claw suddenly grasps the incoming spiky club.

Thud!!!

A dull muffled sound could be heard. With ease, the black-cloaked man caught the club, and with a slight effort, he squeezes his finger.

This action from the black-cloaked man, made the burly man smirk. This is because he knew what is going to happen next. In that second strike, he uses a bit of his internal strength and his internal strength causes a delay.

With that idea in mind, the burly man showed a happy expression, thinking that the black-cloaked man is stupid enough to catch his club. But soon his expression change as he heard a particular sound.
