After staying in Beiji City for some time, the leader of the Cold Dragon Hall left, along with the people sent by the Evil Exorcism Society.
Yu Chi Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief and led the members of the North Dragon Hall to live a few comfortable days. Unfortunately, he still hadn't seen Feng Ting Liu.
Perhaps the injury was more serious and he was still recovering. Yu Chi Feng thought.
It wasn't long before such a life was disrupted once again by a letter, which broke the peace of the North Dragon Hall.
"Boss, boss, something's happened!" Qi Cheng shouted as he ran into the room.
Yu Chi Feng was disturbed to the point of a splitting headache. He sighed and said unhappily, "What now. Is it the Evil Exorcism Society or the Cold Dragon Hall?"
"Well, both..."
"... Endless."
"But this time it's a serious matter! Boss! The Evil Cult is causing chaos in the northwest, looting several villages, and even scattering the Red Dragon Hall in the northwest! The people above the Evil Exorcism Society have ordered us to join forces with the Cold Dragon Hall to suppress the Evil Cult!"
The situation was far more serious than Yu Chi Feng had imagined. It was rare for the Evil Exorcism Society to ask him to do something serious. He urgently summoned the brothers of the North Dragon Hall to discuss.
"I will take some people and leave. Thirty percent of the people will stay in Beiji City to defend. Qi Cheng, He Qi, one of you two will stay."
"Hey, of course it's me who will follow the hall master! " Qi Cheng was already eager to go and teach those Evil Cult members a lesson.
Logically, Qi Cheng was indeed the best choice. In the past, whenever they went on a long journey, he would follow Yu Chi Feng. He Qi was more calm and steady, and would stay to maintain the normal operation of the North Dragon Hall.
However, in recent times, He Qi's behavior has been very strange. He always gets into arguments with others, as if he is gradually unable to fit into the North Dragon Hall.
Yu Chi Feng frowned and thought for a long time.
At this time, He Qi stepped forward, looked at Yu Chi Feng, and said, "I'd better go with you. I'm more familiar with the northwest. The people in the North Dragon Hall are more obedient to you than to me. What's the use of me staying?"
As soon as He Qi said this, the atmosphere in the room instantly became strange. Everyone looked at him, not knowing what to say.
Yu Chi Feng's headache got worse. He didn't know what had happened to He Qi and why he couldn't get along well with everyone. Yu Chi Feng didn't respond to He Qi's latter words and said in a deep voice:
"He Qi will come with me. You are more familiar with the terrain in the northwest, and I need your guidance."
"Yes."
The next day, the people from the Cold Dragon Hall also arrived in Beiji City.
To Yu Chi Feng's surprise, the leader of the Cold Dragon Hall did not come to the battle in person. The people from the Cold Dragon Hall explained that the hall master had other important matters to attend to, and the battle would be led by the leader of the North Dragon Hall.
Yu Chi Feng's favor for that woman decreased even more, but the matter of suppressing the Evil Cult was more important, so he didn't say much. He led the people from the two strongholds and marched towards the northwest.
The terrain in the northwest was complex, the sandy ground was difficult to walk on, and there was no vegetation for cover. Only broken walls and ruins could be seen.
An overly large team was indeed easy to attract the enemy's attention. So halfway through the journey, Yu Chi Feng commanded to divide the team into five groups and advance separately.
"We are not familiar with the terrain in the northwest. How about mixing the people from the North Dragon Hall and the Cold Dragon Hall into five teams?" The person leading the Cold Dragon Hall suddenly suggested.
"Well, that's fine." Yu Chi Feng nodded in agreement.
The smaller teams continued to move forward and didn't find a place with cover to rest until night.
One person from the Cold Dragon Hall and one from the North Dragon Hall were sent to keep watch at night. On this first night, it was naturally Yu Chi Feng and the leader of the other side.
Yu Chi Feng's sword was placed by his hand, vigilant against the enemy or wild animals. The person from the Cold Dragon Hall also revealed his weapon and carefully wiped it with a handkerchief.
When Yu Chi Feng saw his weapon, he was somewhat surprised. Because on that sword-like weapon, there were countless evenly distributed barbs. With one strike of this sword, it seemed that it could disembowel a person.
"Your weapon is rather unique." Yu Chi Feng couldn't help but sigh.
"Really?" The man smiled and didn't mind, showing him the weapon. "Many people in the Cold Dragon Hall use this kind of weapon."
"Oh? Could it be that they are from the same school?"
"More or less. The method of using this weapon was taught to us by the hall master."
"She can use not only Gu poison?" Yu Chi Feng was surprised.
"Naturally. Although our hall master is from the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, she has also learned many other martial arts." At this point, the man's tone was somewhat proud.
Yu Chi Feng thought that if there was an opportunity, he would have to compete with this person to see what this weapon was really like.
After a short rest, the group moved on again.
When a scene of broken walls and dark bloodstains appeared, everyone knew that they had arrived.
"This was one of the strongholds of the Red Dragon Hall before." Yu Chi Feng went forward to investigate but only found a piece of clothing in the ruins. "There was a fire, and there are also traces of transportation. Perhaps after the people of the Red Dragon Hall were forced to flee from here, the Evil Cult set this place on fire."
"Fortunately, there are no corpses." The person from the Cold Dragon Hall also came forward to investigate. "Let's continue deeper."
This place was originally a resting place in the desert, but it was turned into ruins under the tyranny of the Evil Cult.
Yu Chi Feng sighed and put the piece of clothing in his hand into the wind, letting it drift away with the dust.
Along the way, they didn't see anyone, not even the corpses of the people from the Red Dragon Hall or the northwest residents. The northwest desert seemed to have become a dead zone.
"It's very strange... Even if the Evil Cult has passed through, there should be corpses." Yu Chi Feng frowned tightly, looking at the second desolate stronghold, full of doubts.
"Perhaps they all fled." The person from the Cold Dragon Hall shrugged, feeling helpless. "It's better than having corpses everywhere."
"... Hopefully that's the case."
Yu Chi Feng's heart was filled with doubts. He felt that something was strange and definitely not simple.
Just in such doubts, they arrived at the third stronghold. Surprisingly, they finally saw people.
They were not from the northwest, but from Liudu City.
"It's you..." Yu Chi Feng widened his eyes, looking at Feng Ting Liu on the horse, both surprised and happy.
Feng Ting Liu looked down at them, narrowed his eyes, and chuckled, "Why have the people of the Evil Exorcism Society come to such a desolate place?"
Yu Chi Feng was about to speak, but the person from the Cold Dragon Hall was even more excited. They drew their weapons one after another and charged forward.
"This should be our question for you!" The people from the Cold Dragon Hall shouted loudly. The special weapon shone with a cold light in the hot sun and struck directly at Feng Ting Liu on the horse.
The people from Liudu City immediately blocked in front of Feng Ting Liu, and the two sides immediately engaged in battle.
And Feng Ting Liu was still on the horse, looking at Yu Chi Feng.
Yu Chi Feng looked at him as if it had been an eternity.
The people from the Cold Dragon Hall swarmed forward. The people from the North Dragon Hall were waiting for Yu Chi Feng's instructions. They only drew their weapons and didn't know if they should step forward.
"Wait!" Yu Chi Feng suddenly shouted. "The mayor of Liudu City appears here. Could it be that our purposes are the same, to eliminate the Evil Cult?"
"How is that possible! They must have colluded with the Evil Cult and ambushed here!" The people from the Cold Dragon Hall loudly refuted. "Finish them quickly and kill them!"
"Kill!"
Yu Chi Feng turned to look at that person and found shock and inexplicable panic in his eyes.
"Huh?" Yu Chi Feng was even more puzzled, but at this moment, he heard footsteps and the sound of horses' hooves coming from afar.
Yu Chi Feng turned his head sharply and saw dozens of people in black robes, holding various weapons, running towards them. When they got closer, the demonic patterns exposed on their faces or arms could be seen.
"Not good! It's the Evil Cult!" Yu Chi Feng suddenly shouted and immediately led the people of the North Dragon Hall to meet the enemy.
"Sure enough! Liudu City is on the side of the Evil Cult!" The people from the Cold Dragon Hall shouted angrily and attacked the people of Liudu City again.
Yu Chi Feng frowned and looked at Feng Ting Liu, who had drawn his sword, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.
Something is not right. Something is not right everywhere.
Suddenly, he saw Feng Ting Liu looking at him, his lips moving slightly, as if saying something.
Yu Chi Feng was stunned for a moment and suddenly understood that what Feng Ting Liu said to him was: "Be careful."
Yu Chi Feng nodded at him, turned his head, drew his sword, and attacked the Evil Cult.
The battlefield was extremely chaotic.
The people of the North Dragon Hall were fighting with the Evil Cult in a frenzy. On the other side, the Cold Dragon Hall and Liudu City were evenly matched. The people of Liudu City seemed to be also vigilant against the intervention of the Evil Cult and even separated a part of their people to quietly blend into the North Dragon Hall to fight against the Evil Cult.
It was like a farce.
The people of the North Dragon Hall soon discovered that none of the people from the Cold Dragon Hall had come to assist them in resisting the Evil Cult. Instead, they were stubbornly attacking Liudu City. The attack of the Evil Cult was terrifying, and the battlefield was covered with blood, seeping into the yellow sand.
Yu Chi Feng's tiger's mouth was numbed by the long knife of the leader of the Evil Cult. He gritted his teeth and swung his long sword to strike at him.
"How presumptuous!" The leader of the Evil Cult raised his knife to resist. The swords collided, making a harsh buzzing sound.
At the same time, another Evil Cult member circled behind Yu Chi Feng and attacked fiercely!
Yu Chi Feng had to stop his attack and defend instead, but he found it difficult to resist the unorganized attack of the Evil Cult. Hidden arrows would come from nowhere, and gradually, he was also injured and breathing heavily.
"Damn..." Yu Chi Feng gritted his teeth and looked at the people from the Cold Dragon Hall, only to find that they still had no intention of helping!
The leader of the Evil Cult struck down with another knife, and it was about to reach Yu Chi Feng!
In the next moment, a figure blocked in front of Yu Chi Feng.
"Brother, I'll come to help you." The man said, helping Yu Chi Feng block the enemy who was attacking from behind.
Yu Chi Feng looked over in surprise and found that the man was unfamiliar. He was actually from Liudu City!
"Thanks!"
"Ha ha, but I can only help for a while. After all, it's not good for your reputation!" The man laughed as he swung his knife at the Evil Cult.
"That's enough!" Yu Chi Feng immediately broke through the siege and fought with him.
What a joke!
At a critical moment, it was the seemingly enemy Liudu City that helped him!
The sounds of fighting did not stop. The attack of the Evil Cult was extremely terrifying. Only the North Dragon Hall and some of the people from Liudu City could hardly resist.
Just then, the situation suddenly changed.
"Kill them all! Leave no one alive!"
A thunderous shout broke the situation on the battlefield. Yu Chi Feng looked over in surprise and saw that the people from the Cold Dragon Hall launched an attack. They no longerStalemate with the people from Liudu City but instead turned towards his direction.
Yu Chi Feng thought that the people from the Cold Dragon Hall were finally going to join forces with them to resist the Evil Cult.
The people of the North Dragon Hall, who were in a difficult battle, also thought so. They entrusted their backs to their compatriots, but in the next moment, their hearts were pierced by the sharp blades of their "compatriots".
"You..." Yu Chi Feng saw this and suddenly understood that all the strangeness originated from the collusion between the Cold Dragon Hall and the Evil Cult!
What they wanted to kill was not the Evil Cult at all, but the people of the North Dragon Hall!
"I'm sorry, the leader of the North Dragon Hall."
Two different weapons attacked Yu Chi Feng fiercely. He struggled to resist the attacks from both sides, but in the end, he couldn't avoid the hidden arrow from behind.
His embarrassed resistance still caused him to be struck by a sword. The opponent's strong attack threw him onto the broken wall, and the yellow sand flew with the blood.
Yu Chi Feng's vision was blocked by the blood flowing from his head. He also heard the sound of his bones cracking. His vision was blurred, as if his head had hit a sharp stone and injured the inside.
In a blur, he saw the figure of Feng Ting Liu in the distance. Even though he couldn't see Feng Ting Liu's expression, he subconsciously felt that Feng Ting Liu must be worried about him.
Yu Chi Feng chuckled. On the one hand, he felt that it was not appropriate for Feng Ting Liu to see him in such aEmbarrassed state. On the other hand, he felt that if it could gain his attention, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
The battle was chaotic, and the wails echoed.
Yu Chi Feng gritted his teeth, inserted the long sword into the sand, and stood up.
His brothers were being killed by the so-called "compatriots". How could he die here easily?
He moved forward step by step among the corpses, forcibly creating a bloody path.
"The Cold Dragon Hall... The Evil Cult... The Evil Exorcism Society..." Yu Chi Feng murmured in a daze, with hatred and unwillingness surging together.
The wind mixed with yellow sand eroded his body, but he stood like a tall tower.
But when he heard the buzzing sound of the sword piercing through the air behind him, he was already powerless to resist and could only turn to look.
A strange sharp blade pierced through his body and was quickly pulled out, bringing out fresh blood and flesh.
Yu Chi Feng's strength and consciousness gradually faded with the flow of blood. Before he closed his eyes, what he saw was a pair of red eyes filled with hatred and sadness.
