"You said that they would be here in four hours. It's already dark, why are they still nowhere to be seen?" Head Steward asked an old man, his expression extremely ugly.
"Could, could something have happened to them as well?" At this moment, the old man was also sweating profusely.
"It's getting dark, will that thing attack us?" someone asked softly.
"Earth Martial Cultivator is outside, the experiencers are in the middle, don't sleep tonight. "When it's daybreak and those people still don't come, we will go down the mountain together." The Head Steward said.
That night, Zhuo Quan did not ambush them. He was busy moving the corpses.
This was because he knew that no matter if he killed these people or made them run down the mountain, there would still be hidden practitioners from the Cloud Residue Sect.
Whether he stayed behind to deal with the hidden cultivators or to leave the Myriad Beasts Mountain, he could not allow these corpses without storage bags or Spatial Ring to be found. Otherwise, everything would be exposed.
Zhuo Quan normally went through all over this mountain range just to find a beast cave or a few hidden caves. He now stuffed them all into the cave or the cave, and then blocked the entrance to the cave.
From last night to this day, he had killed too many people for the corpses to be completely disposed of. Thus, he first dealt with the Earth Martial Cultivator's corpse, and then with the corpses of the Genuine Martial Body people, he could deal with as many as he could.
After busying himself for an entire night, he finally dealt with all of Earth Martial Cultivator's corpses. However, he only dealt with around a hundred corpses of the Genuine Martial Body users.
While he was dealing with the corpses, he also purposely made some noises, wanting to lure the people from the Cloud Residue Sect into the forest.
However, as if they hadn't heard anything, those people stayed together with their eyes open. They didn't sleep, and just like that, the night passed.
"Forget it, I won't move the body anymore. It was already dawn, so those people should be beginning to move. They would definitely leave in the direction that those five people from yesterday had fled in. "Then I'll go to the forest and wait for them there. I'll think of a way to kill as many of them as I can."
Zhuo Quan went into the forest, and after making a big turn, he rushed towards the forest where the five Heaven Slaughter Cloud Residue Sect messengers were gathered.
"Sigh, looks like something happened to those people. The Sound Transmission Jade shouted countless times, but no one answered." An old man said to Head Steward. His face was solemn and one could faintly see the fear in his eyes.
"Forty Earth Martial Cultivator s! It's impossible for a single Xi Nang to kill so many experts. Looks like this Xi Nang really has the Profound Skill to control wild beasts." said one of the men in the crowd.
"It's not like we can contact each other in the same sect right now. However, there are still forty Earth Martial Cultivator s who can't be dealt with! Not a single message. It seems that our place was safe last night, and that thing is going to deal with our forty Earth Martial Cultivator s.
"Sigh, it's such a good chance that we didn't leave. Now, it seems that whether we leave or not, it's all going to be disastrous here." Another old man said in a sad voice.
"But last night we saw something moving in the woods, as if it were dragging a corpse. Are you eating the body? "Too terrifying." Another person said. The tone of his voice was as if he was narrating a panicky story. It was like a cold wind blowing from all directions. Many people could not help but shiver.
"He already knows how to control wild beasts, and he also knows that we don't dare to go into the forest to deal with him. Then he can call for one or two carnivorous wild beasts and eat the corpses in the forest opposite, then we won't dare to move." The other person added, making the atmosphere even more depressing.
"It bullied us for being blind at night. It's daytime now, why don't we rush over together and fight it!" someone said, gritting his teeth in despair.
"Sigh, let's go. Sit here and wait. We'll be better off, but some of those youngsters can't take it anymore." Head Steward said to the old man beside him in a soft voice, showing a helpless expression.
"Looks like something really happened to those people." We have no choice but to protect ourselves. We still have so many people in the middle of the day. If we speed up, we should be able to go down the mountain before nightfall. "We can't hesitate. Go down the mountain, please give the order." The old man nodded and said softly.
"Everyone, quiet down. Now, I decided, everyone was going down the mountain. They formed up, and did not spread out. Earth Martial Cultivator was on the outer layer, so they had to increase their speed so that they could reach the Myriad Beasts City before it got dark. "Let's go!" The Head Steward ordered.
Just like that, over a hundred people walked toward the Myriad Beasts City with dejected looks on their faces.
"Be careful, there is a forest ahead. Everyone, hurry up. After we pass this forest, there is a path to climb the mountain. We will be safe." After walking for half a day, they finally reached the last lush forest. The Head Steward urged everyone.
"Not good, Xi Nang!" Suddenly, someone shouted.
At that moment, as the crowd was digging into a pile of firewood, a child appeared in the crowd, his small hands fluttering, and then there was a clatter. Head Steward saw countless bodies flying up and down.
"It's in the middle, Earth Martial Cultivator, quickly go to the center, the Xi Nang is in the middle!" he shouted.
However, the firewood was thick and dense, and the ground was slippery from the leaves. It was not convenient for people to walk in the middle, and their walking speed was very slow.
However, when he brought twenty odd Earth Martial Cultivator s to the middle position, the Xi Nang was already gone, and over a dozen corpses were lying on the ground.
"Quick, split the trees and advance!" He decisively gave the order.
But, how many people still had the mind to split the trees? One by one, they took the stance of observing the sixth path with a panic-stricken expression.
"Look, the Xi Nang is over there!" someone shouted. Soon, they saw two headless corpses beside a tree.
"It's the Fourth Elder and the Third Guard." Someone shouted. Two more Earth Martial Cultivator s were gone.
Ah!" There it is! " Another scream. Beside another tree, two headless corpses appeared.
"Quick!" Everyone gather over here! " The Head Steward shouted with all the courage in his heart.
However, this was a forest, and the firewood was dense. How could it be so easy to gather? On the contrary, it caused many people to be left alone.
After much difficulty, the group seemed to have gathered, but after counting the number of people, there were still 23 in Earth Martial Cultivator and 40 in Practical. Another half was lost.
"What should we do?" an old man asked Head Steward.
"How far does it take to get to the mountain road?" Head Steward asked.
"The straight line should still be ten kilometers away."
"Ten miles?" If this was a normal situation, these 10 miles wouldn't even be considered a big deal for martial artists like them. But now, it was a path of life and death! Each additional meter of distance meant that they were nearly one meter away from the road to death.
"Two of the Earth Martial Cultivator s are at the rear, left and right are being guarded by five Earth Martial Cultivator s, the rest are at the front. The Earth Martial Cultivator at the front split into two teams, one to guard and one to cut down the trees. The experiencers are in the middle, move forward in a straight line! " The Head Steward ordered again.
Although the remaining people were all scared out of their wits, they all understood that they couldn't panic now. They had to remain calm. After giving the order, everyone immediately began to move. In a short while, they had already lined up.
"Boom! Boom!" The chopping parties ahead of them started cutting down the trees. Although these trees were thick, they were too easy to cut down in Earth Martial Cultivator.
Ah!" "The bag is in the back!" The Head Supervisor, who was observing in all directions, saw a child appear at the back of the group, and the two Earth Warriors behind him had disappeared.
Ah!" The child began to attack the experiencer in the middle. With this, those experiencers no longer cared about anything else. They couldn't go forward or go back, so they simply ran towards the woods on both sides.
"Come back!" Head Steward shouted.
"Hee hee." The childish laughter was very terrifying. Now, when everyone heard it, they felt as if they had heard a ghost in the middle of the night, causing their scalps to go numb.
The Earth Martial Cultivator's hands and feet were tied as they were attacked by the experiencers who rushed in randomly. Very quickly, they were ambushed by the children who sneaked into the firewood.
"The Xi Nang is here, stop chopping the trees, surround and kill him!" An old man shouted.
When all the Earth Martial Cultivator heard the shout, they quickly ran over. This way, many Earth Martial Cultivator were left alone.
As for those who had gone through the trial, all they did was hide. None of them wanted to resist. Zhuo Quan, on the other hand, was extremely fast and his body was small. In one go, he dove into the firewood, and with one leap, he jumped onto a tree.
As for those experiencers, he didn't kill any of them. However, there were some practitioners who began to wail and wail. They burrowed into the forest of firewood and couldn't even take a single step.
"Charge!" Charge forward! Don't turn and run in a straight line! " Head Steward shouted hysterically, finally losing his cool.
Upon hearing the pavilion master's words, the crowd immediately fell into chaos. They didn't pay any attention to the others and immediately dashed into the forest.
The rest of the Earth Martial Cultivator s did not even bother defending and rushed forward as well.
However, this was a primitive forest with dense firewood and thick branches! Then how could he run? Some slipped and twisted in the leaves that had accumulated over the years. Some fell into the brambles, and were in a state of turmoil. Many people were so anxious that they cried without caring about their status. No one even thought about resisting the onslaught of battle.
Head Steward and an old man were walking side by side and did not separate at all. The two of them stuck close to each other, one with two swords dancing in the air, slashing firewood and chopping trees. They didn't care about the others anymore and rushed forward. A straight mountain path was forcefully opened up by the two of them.
Finally, the two of them ran out of the forest and arrived at the mountain-climbing path. The two of them stopped and looked at each other before looking back at the forest.
At this moment, the forest was abnormally quiet. Not even the chirping of a bird could be heard. The two knew that they were the only ones left alive.
"Woo woo …" Head Steward suddenly dropped his sword and knelt on the ground and started sobbing. Although the old man was standing, he was also crying.
After a long time, the two stopped their grief and flew down the mountain.
