After leaving the weapon store, Tian Cheng bought a lot of daily necessities and almost used up all the money on his body before stopping his crazy shopping. Even though Tian Cheng still felt it was not enough and wanted to give him more money, he would not leave a single one of them behind. He had no choice, there were too many things he needed at home, and every time he went to a shop, he would have the same thought. After this purchase, it found out that the money was not enough, and many things it wanted were gone before it even saw money, letting it know that home was not so easy. Looking at the large bag of things in front of it, Tian Cheng kicked it and muttered: "I must make a good profit in the future, and find another housekeeper. If this goes on, won't I tire myself to death?" As he spoke, he picked up the bag and rushed in the direction of the village.
The fiery red setting sun was slowly dimming as the night approached.
Most of the roads to the village were mountain roads. At night, even with the light of the moon, it was still very hard to walk. Besides, he was carrying a big bag on his back. Even Tian Cheng, who had grown up in the mountains, couldn't help but complain in his heart. His shoes were already worn out, and he could clearly feel the blisters on his feet. However, Tian Cheng continued to grit his teeth. With the moonlight above his head, he persevered, step by step, not letting out a single groan.
At this moment, Tian Cheng was walking on a small path with mountains on both sides of it. Not far away from him was a relatively flat road. Unintentionally, Tian Cheng sped up his pace. Just as they were about to leave the mountain pass, Tian Cheng stopped breathing, because he felt a dangerous aura, pressuring Tian Cheng to the point where he was unable to breathe. "Yes, this is a killing intent," he quickly recognized the aura, "but it doesn't seem to be directed at me." Tian Cheng didn't dare to move his feet. He used his sensitive senses to scan the surroundings, and very quickly, he discovered the source of the killing intent. About two hundred meters in front of him, he gently moved his feet, and hid behind a big tree, only to see two groups of people fighting each other in an open space, with about ten people on one side. Each of them held a weapon, and they were in a fighting stance.
After a while, one of the bearded man finally could not hold it in anymore and shouted: "Aiden, don't go overboard with your Strong Gale Mercenaries. It's fine that they stole our mission last time, but this time, in order to kill this green-eyed Wind Wolf, we lost several brothers, so we managed to beat them up and let them escape. Otherwise, from today onwards, your Strong Gale will be our Black Panther's eternal enemy. " His words were laced with a cold killing intent.
"Green Eyed Wind Wolf". Not far away, Tian Cheng listened to them without missing a word. When he heard this name, Tian Cheng couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, quickly recalling the introductions his grandfather had given him. A wolf king usually had the terrifying strength of a Class 6 Magical Beast, belonging to the wind element. Its speed was extremely fast, and its attacks were extremely strong, so assassins in the dark, belonging to the group of magical beasts, rarely fell behind, so there were very few chances of them killing the wind wolf. Therefore, in human society, a wolf's value was extremely high, and its whole body was like a treasure.
From this person's words, Tian Cheng roughly understood something. It was nothing more than a fight for the treasures. Tian Cheng had also learned from his grandfather that killing for various reasons was very common in the continent. The Mercenary Union was also troubled by this type of event and had also intervened in several major incidents before, but the effects weren't that great. In the end, they could do as they pleased. This way, however, the mercenaries' overall strength would be increased by a large amount. The law of survival of the fittest reminded them to constantly improve their own strength.
Faced with the bearded big fellow's clamor, Aiden seemed to not care at all. He snorted and said, "Ryan, don't talk so arrogantly. It's been so many years, when have you ever won against our Strong Gale? It is your incompetence that you did not kill it. Now that it has died in our hands, it is ours. If you have the ability, come and snatch it from us.
They had always been rivals, but because the two of them were of similar strength, they had been unable to swallow each other. However, today, not only did they steal the fruits of their victory, they even brazenly issued a challenge. He pulled out the big blade in his hand, and his whole body burst out an astonishing aura. With a "Ah!", he rushed towards Aiden.
Seeing the mad Ryan rushing at him, Aiden revealed a sinister smile. His whole body burst forth with a momentum that was several times stronger than Ryan's. He pulled out his greatsword and rushed forward. Not far away, after Tian Cheng felt this aura, he couldn't help but hug the tree even tighter. Drops of sweat the size of beans instantly dripped all over his body.
Is this the true strength of a Saint Master?" Could a Saint Origin Master cultivate to such a level? Too strong! "He's no different from a Superman!" "In reality, Tian Cheng had seen such a powerful person. He had only seen such a scene on TV before. How could he not be surprised when his grandfather told him that none of the wars were as powerful as this?
With a loud 'boom', the crushed rocks and weeds that were centered around the two of them flew in all directions. The surrounding trees started to shake, and the weak people of the two groups who were fighting against each other immediately spat out blood from the shock of the energy. Tian Cheng, who was behind the tree, also unfortunately got hit by a small stone on his arm, which quickly turned red and swollen.
After the sandstorm passed by, the bearded man had already flown more than ten meters away. After knocking down a few trees, he was lying under a tree that he was about to knock down. He was spitting blood and holding onto his broken greatsword. It really was … "General Yuan."
Seeing that he had defeated his opponent for so many years with one move, Aiden laughed out loud. He said to the half-dead Ryan, "That's right, it's a general. I just broke through to rank 9 a few months ago. Didn't I warn you before the battle? "Who would've thought that a fool like you would want to fight with me in a single move. I originally wanted to spar with you, but it seems that I won't have the chance. Go and die peacefully." With that, he swung his sword, and an invisible sword Qi appeared in front of Lien from the ground. It silently slashed across his throat, and his breathing suddenly stopped. He opened his eyes and left the world, unresigned.
He really didn't want to accept this, ever since the establishment of the mercenary group, he and Aiden had a conflict. At that time, Aiden was just an elementalist, and so was Aiden. For so many years, both he and Aiden had been training diligently, almost always advancing at the same time. This time, he was wrong. Although there was only a slight difference in level between a ninth rank and a first rank elemental general, there was a huge disparity in strength. If it was a prudent fighting method, there was still a chance for him to escape, and he would not lose his life. As such, this time, he didn't get the item back. Instead, he was risking his own life.
After killing Ryan, Aiden immediately issued an order, "Kill them all!"
Black Panther, who did not have a leader, lost his will to fight. The battle continued on as screams resounded through the entire forest. They desperately shouted for help, but other than Tian Cheng, who was not far away, no one would hear their despair. Under the moonlight, sabers flashed, and blood was shed. Soon, all the members of the Black Panther Tribe were killed. After cleaning up the battlefield, the strong gale left the floor full of corpses and quickly disappeared.
Tian Cheng, who was hiding behind a big tree, slowly made his way to the center of the group of corpses. Looking at the corpses all around him, his mind was blank. He didn't have any time to think as he carried his bag and ran back home. The weight on his back seemed to have disappeared, making him run in an exceptionally agile manner.
This night was far too extraordinary a night for someone like him who was still an ordinary person.
