Chapter 134: Peak Strength.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
[Puff-]!!!
The icy and sharp blade directly cut off one of the Barbarian’s legs, causing him to scream out in pain, falling to the ground.
Immediately after, a Black Tiger Army soldier sprang out from under the bed, skillfully slashing his sword and sliced the Barbarian’s throat.
The huge movement immediately attracted the attention of the other Barbarians.
Meanwhile, the Black Tiger Army soldier was in no hurry. He simply smashed the window on the side and escaped to the outside.
By the time the other Barbarians arrived, only their blood-stained companion and a broken window could be seen.
“Give chase!”
“Those who dare to kill our clan members must be cut to pieces!”
The leading Barbarian was furious.
Being suddenly ambushed gave him the urge to kill.
""
Hearing this, the other Barbarians also leapt out the window.
——
“Kill!”
“Quick, don’t let that Qin man run away!”
“Set it on fire, burn it all for me. I’ll see how long they can hide!”
The sound of shouting and chaos in the city erupted into the sky.
In the process of searching, a large number of Barbarians were ambushed and killed by the well-prepared Black Tiger Army. This move completely angered the Barbarians.
Some Barbarian Generals looked at a large number of buildings and ordered men to set them on fire.
Since they couldn’t find the enemies, then they will make them come out by burning their hideouts.
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
On both sides of the street, dark arrows suddenly shot out.
A Barbarian General was caught off guard and was shot by dozens of arrows. He didn’t even have time to scream, and fell from the tiger’s back, completely silent.
Such an event naturally attracted the wrath of the Barbarians.
“There is an ambush!”
“Kill them and avenge the General!”
All of the Barbarians then made their way towards the buildings on both sides.
Soon, dozens of Black Tiger Army troops appeared from its depths and engaged against the Barbarians.
“You guys retreat. Old Liu and Zhang, let’s stop them!”
Bai Qing’s face was stern, as he looked at the numerous Barbarians surrounding them. He drew the sword around his waist and swung.
There were currently many Barbarians entering the city.
The sound from here would soon attract more Barbarians.
So, at this time, someone must step up and give the others a chance to evacuate. It wouldn’t be good if all of them were killed here.
Hearing this, the Black Tiger Army did not say a word more, and immediately evacuated to the rear.
Naturally, the few Black Tiger Army soldiers that were left behind were all killed by the Barbarians.
Just three Black Tigers Army soldiers had no chance of winning against dozens of Barbarians.
However, the Black Tiger Army soldiers who had stayed behind were all determined to die. Even if they suffered serious injuries, they did not stop attacking.
Soon, two of the three Black Tigers Army soldiers, who were left behind, had already died in battle.
In exchange, the Barbarians had also sacrificed the lives of four or five of their people.
“Haaah!”
Bai Qing panted heavily and leaned behind a building. He looked at the numerous Barbarians surrounding him, with blood dripping from the sword in his hand.
He was very clear that he was about to die.
Although he was not hit in the vital parts, the number of injuries he sustained was quite a lot.
Plus, with dozens of Barbarians in front of him, not to mention in his current condition, even when he was at his peak, he had no possibility of confronting these many enemies.
But–
There was no fear on Bai Qing’s face.
Ever since he had decided to stay, he was ready to die.
“Kill!”
Just as the surrounding Barbarians’ attacks were about to strike him.
Boom–
The window behind him shattered, followed by the sound of tiger howling and leopard roaring. Finally, all of the weapons wielded by the Barbarians were crushed by a tyrannical force.
The force remained unstoppable, causing the skin between the weapon-holding hands of the Barbarians to break, making them scream in pain.
“Who!?”
“What happened–“
The sudden change shocked all of the Barbarians.
When they came back to their senses, they found that in front of the Black Tiger Army soldier was a man in a green shirt.
“I didn’t expect the Barbarians to break through Jin City so quickly!”
Looking at the many Barbarians in front of him, Shen Changqing’s eyes flickered.
He wasn’t sure how long he had been in seclusion, but it was, at most, only a day or two.
With such a short amount of time, Shen Changqing was very surprised that the Barbarians had already reached Tianyi Luo.
However, he didn’t dwell on such doubts for a long time.
His body disappeared in place, and his fist struck out in the next breath. A Barbarian couldn’t even scream in agony before he exploded into pieces. Blood and flesh splashed around.
“Kill him!”
“Kill!”
Seeing the death of their comrade not only did not make the remaining Barbarians fearful. Rather, it stimulated the fierceness in their hearts, as they came to collectively attack Shen Changqing.
To this, Shen Changqing was not afraid.
One could see him wandering among the Barbarians, as if he was taking a stroll in his courtyard. Every punch and palm strike he delivered would make a Barbarian explode.
These dozens of Barbarians barely managed to persist up to quarter of an hour, before all of their corpses littered the street.
Behind Su Qin, Bai Qing was looking at the scene in front of him. His calm face was now that of horror.
He had seen a lot of strong people, but this man in the green shirt in front of him just killed the Barbarians like he was crushing an ant. It was completely unheard of.
Seeing Shen Changqing’s face, Bai Qing’s face was startled once again.
“Lord Shen!”
“You know me?”
“My Lord is from the Demon Suppression Division, how could I not know? It’s thanks to Lord Shen’s timely intervention that I was spared!”
Bai Qing bowed his head and replied respectfully.
The Black Tiger Army respected the strong, especially the ones among the Qin people.
Shen Changqing looked at Bai Qing, took out a Qi and Blood Pill, then threw it to the other party.
Bai Qing stretched out his hand to take it. He looked at the pill in his hand and without asking too much, he swallowed it in one mouthful.
When the pill dissolved into his stomach, the exhaustion in his body caused by the excessive loss of Qi and blood was immediately replenished. His complexion regained some color.
“Thank you Lord Shen for giving me the pill!”
“What’s the situation in Jin City now, why was it breached so quickly?”
After giving a Qi and Blood Pill to help Bai Qing keep his life, Shen Changqing voiced the doubts in his heart.
Bai Qing replied in a deep voice, “Reporting to Lord Shen, the Barbarians are currently attacking fiercely. The General wants us to let the Barbarians enter the city and take advantage of the terrain of Jin City, to delay the fierce battle with the Barbarians for some time.”
“So that’s how it is!”
Shen Changqing suddenly understood.
So the Black Tiger Army was fighting with guerrilla warfare, right?
Jin City was not small. If the Barbarians were allowed in, the Black Tiger Army’s understanding city could indeed cause a lot of trouble to the Barbarians.
But, in this way, Jin City would also be in half ruins.
Currently, just by looking at the sky-high flames, one could see what kind of damage Jin City was suffering.
“Where is Chu Ding?”
Shen Changqing asked again.
“The General was badly injured in the fight against Merba, and is currently recovering in the Zhou Family’s residence.”
Bai Qing replied truthfully.
Zhou Family?
Which Zhou Family?
Shen Changqing was startled, and he quickly realized that the so-called Zhou Family should be the Zhou Family that was destroyed.
The Black Tiger Army was temporarily using their residence as a stronghold.
At this time, the Barbarians from other places had also come over to check.
Shen Changqing did not panic and simply waved at Bai Qing.
“If you have any injuries, find a place to recuperate. I’ll handle the Barbarians here.”
“Lord Shen, be careful!”
Bai Qing nodded, before retreating.
He didn’t insist on staying to help. He knew what he could do.
With his strength, not only would he not be of much help staying, he would actually become a hindrance.
Shen Changqing stood still amidst the ground that was laced with scattered flesh and blood. However, the pungent bloody smell did not bother him at all.
——————————-
Name: Shen Changqing
Faction: Great Qin Demon Suppression Division
Status: Yellow Rank Official Slayer
Martial Arts: Impregnable Golden Body (Level 17, cannot be upgraded), Heavenly Martial Astral Qi (Level 17, cannot be upgraded), Hundred Battles Sword Technique (Level 3), Iron Sand Palm (Level 5, cannot be fused), Heaven Capturing Astral Steps (Level 5, cannot be fused), Splitting Mountain Palm Technique (not yet activated, cannot be fused), Willow Wool Body Technique (not yet activated, cannot be fused)
Killing Value: 3
——————————-
Level 17 [Impregnable Golden Body]!
Level 17 [Heavenly Martial Astral Qi]!
These were all of the gains Shen Changqing got from his one-day seclusion.
The original 91 points of Killing Value was now almost completely exhausted, and was instead replaced by increased stats.
However, even until now, he still hadn’t comprehended True Intent. Going by the Martial Community’s standards, he was naturally not considered a Grandmaster.
However, the current Shen Changqing had the confidence to compete against a Grandmaster.
“The Level 17 [Impregnable Golden Body] and [Heavenly Martial Astral Qi] allows me to run rampant in the Innate Realm. Even a powerful monster, like Hongyi, would not be able to survive from my hands.”
“The breakthroughs I have made this time are stronger than ever before. If I still can’t compete with a Grandmaster, then the Grandmaster Realm is too powerful!”
It was true that Grandmasters were strong, but it was impossible for them to be too strong.
Not to mention anything else, Shen Changqing could certainly kill an Innate Realm Cultivator with one punch.
If this kind of strength couldn’t compete with a Grandmaster, then the Grandmaster Realm was really terrifying.
Likewise, it was also because of the breakthroughs he had made that Shen Changqing had the confidence to stand here; waiting for the arrival of other Barbarians.
Soon, at the end of the street, Barbarians began to pour in.
Seeing the scattered flesh and blood on the ground, as well as some broken armors that belonged to their comrades, the Barbarians, who just arrived at the scene, wore angry expressions on their faces.
“This damned Qin person, kill him!”
On the back of a fierce tiger, a Barbarian General was wearing a cold expression. The sword on his waist was unsheathed, and pointed the tip of the blade at Shen Changqing.
As his order sounded, all of the Barbarians rushed.
In turn, Shen Changqing’s gaze turned to the commanding Barbarian General. With one hand on the handle of his sword, he slowly unsheathed it and a faint chill emerged.
