Zhao Wanqing stepped inside the village.
The bloodstains on the ground had long since dried up, but the pungent odor of blood could still be smelled.
The burnt houses were randomly dumped into ruins.
All along the way, traces of the formation from this sacrifice ritual could be seen on the ground.
This group of evil cultivators had planned to blood sacrifice the entire village from the start.
There were no corpses on the road, except for the one hanging from the tree in front of the village.
Obviously, the corpses had all been moved to the position of the formation eye.
Zhao Wanqing took a deep breath and suppressed the unspeakable emotions in her heart, to say that the group of evil cultivators left useful traces, the most likely place is the eye of the formation.
She swept her eyes around to check for traces, but her footsteps were still fast as she headed towards the center of the village.
It was the easiest place to cover the entire village.
Everything was just as Zhao Wanqing had speculated.
In the center of the village, white bones were piled up all over the place, all the villagers who had been drained.
But there was also something Zhao Wanqing had not anticipated, the group of evil cultivators had not all retreated.
On the pile of white bones, the evil cultivator wearing a simple black robe casually sat on the white bones, and on his side was a large dark red sword that emitted an endless blood aura.
"The Demon Suppression Division is becoming less and less efficient."The black-robed man's voice was hoarse and his tone was very dissatisfied, "And only two people came, how can you defend mortals with this?"
"Did you do all this?"Zhao Wanqing inquired in an icy tone, while touching the short sword on his waist.
"It wasn't grandpa me who did this, is it hard to believe that it was you, the Demon Suppression Division's junior captain, who did this?"
The black-robed man laughed disdainfully and fiercely reached out to grip the large knife at his side.
Under the moonlight, a dark red light flickered slightly.
The black-robed man holding the large knife had already reached Zhao Wanqing's side, and the long knife in his hand blossomed with dark red light.
Zhao Wanqing's reaction was not slow, the short knife at her waist was already out to resist.
Bang!
The loud sound of gold and iron striking resounded through the silent night sky at this moment.
Zhao Wanqing only felt a knife fierce incomparable, two injured arms almost out of strength, forcibly mobilized the body's spiritual qi can only barely block!
This black-robed person's cultivation was afraid to have a late stage of Foundation Establishment!
However, what made Zhao Wanqing feel even more difficult was that evil cultivator's blood qi!
At the moment, it is surging from the long knife, quickly climbing and striking out of the aura towards Zhao Wanqing.
This caused Zhao Wanqing to have to separate her mind and maneuver her aura to resist the surging blood qi.
If she let the blood qi get close enough to attack her at the moment, it would really be a dead end.
But the black-robed man was, after all, an evil cultivator who had rolled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and he violently raised his foot and directly kicked Zhao Wanqing in the abdomen.
In the face of this kick, Zhao Wanqing had no space to dodge, and could only gather her own aura to forcefully resist.
With a kick, Zhao Wanqing felt that her internal organs were instantly shifted.
The body can no longer support the flying backwards, smashed into the ground, the force is even smashed out a small pit.
Forcibly swallowing the fishy sweetness in her throat, Zhao Wanqing quickly rolled over and backed up.
At the same time, she gripped the short sword in her hand and hurriedly swung out a few channels of blade qi to prevent the black-robed man from coming after her.
However, it was not to be, the black-robed man's figure swept wildly, and after using his blade body to forcefully top the blade qi, his blood-red spiritual energy violently erupted, and went straight for Zhao Wanqing's head.
The black-robed man seemed to sincerely advise:
"Don't become an official in your next life!"
Zhao Wanqing gritted her teeth and raised her short sword again to block.
Seeing this scene, the black-robed man's heart rejoiced, and the blood qi in his body violently erupted, forcing down the knife's center of gravity to deviate.
This allowed the knife that was originally aimed straight for Zhao Wanqing's head to change its traces and slash back towards her waist.
Since the manipulation of blood qi, the black-robed man had used this move to kill many Foundation Establishment cultivators!
Zhao Wanqing watched as the knife turned into rainbow light ...
Bang!
Suddenly a worn out iron sword blocked the rainbow light, followed by Zhao Wanqing only felt the back of her neck collar being tugged by someone, getting out of the range of that big sword attack.
Immediately after that, the iron sword was shattered by the rainbow light.
Li Xingtian looked at the shattered short sword ... Senior sister is really pitting senior brother ah.
Zhao Wanqing looked behind her with a sideways glance, only to see that Li Xingtian looked indifferent.
Li Xingtian still asked out of concern for his employer, "Still good?"
"More ... careful!"
Zhao Wanqing originally intended to thank her, but then saw the black-robed man with a sword coming again and hastily reminded her.
Li Xingtian slightly raised his eyes, and his right hand's broken longsword violently erupted with a metaphysical and mysterious aura.
In the face of that blood drenched, full of killing intent of the big knife, Li Xingtian undaunted, with the broken sword in his hand broken almost only hilt response.
Moreover, it looked as if Li Xingtian was just lightly extending the broken sword.
Zhao Wanqing stared at Li Xingtian's suicide-like behavior with wide eyes.
But what Zhao Wanqing didn't expect next was that it was actually the black-robed man who dodged this exchange of blows.
The black-robed man violently raised his long sword, his figure madly swept wildly dozens of meters away towards the back, his tone cloudy and uncertain:
"... You kid ... from Central State?"
That aura just now was clearly a divine ability!
In addition to the Central State having this kind of strokes, able to let their own disciples to build the foundation to cultivate the divine power, the black-robed man again hard to believe that place there is still such a big strokes!
That was a divine ability!
If it is not cultivated evil cultivation, practiced some instincts, I am afraid that just that seemingly ordinary sword himself will have to suffer a big loss.
Li Xingtian did not answer, just condensed the body's spiritual qi, hand holding the broken sword step forward, across dozens of meters is a chop.
Only to see a dark red light along with the broken sword flashed and passed.
Boom!
As the dark red light flashed away, a fierce energy quickly crushed everything in front of Li Xingtian.
Zhao Wanqing was shocked as she watched the dark red light, which was like a thin thread, devastate and destroy everything. ...
This ... this is definitely not the means of the Foundation Establishment Stage!
Dust flew up, Li Xingtian lightly waved his sword again, and the dust was instantly washed away by the pressure.
The black-robed man had also long since disappeared.
"He ran away."Li Xingtian didn't go after him and turned to look at Zhao Wanqing who was paralyzed on the ground, "How is your situation?"
"I'm not ..."
Zhao Wanqing was about to reply, but the consequences of the strong pressure on her internal organs appeared at the moment, and she very magnificently sprayed a large mouthful of blood ...
Li Xingtian: "..."
"Let's withdraw first, there might be other evil cultivators around, you're seriously injured now I won't necessarily be able to protect you."
Zhao Wanqing also knew that her current situation wasn't optimistic and agreed to Li Xingtian's plan.
"Go back to the Demon Suppression Division first ..." Zhao Wanqing just opened her mouth and vomited out another mouthful of blood.
"... I'm helping you now, please don't say anything."Li Xingtian's tone was serious.
Zhao Wanqing took a deep breath and gently nodded her head.
It was a huge loss of face!
Just now that sword Li Xingtian was also just knocking the mountain to shake the tiger, the mighty nature also had a price.
That sword had drained half of Li Xing Tian's spiritual energy.
In order to guard against the ambush of the evil cultivator, Li Xing Tian can only bring Zhao Wanqing to retreat in a slower way, after all, still have to retain the spiritual energy to prepare for unexpected situations.
Perhaps he was really frightened by Li Xingtian's sword.
There was no ambush on the way back.
After approaching Yuzhou City, Li Xingtian didn't listen to Zhao Wanqing's words to go back to the Demon Suppression Division, but took Zhao Wanqing to the courtyard first.
Facing the closed door, Li Xingtian carried Zhao Wanqing's back collar and directly leapt in.
Before Li Xingtian could report to his own master, Chu Xingcun pushed open the door, and his gaze quickly locked onto Zhao Wanqing, who was pale from vomiting blood.
"What's going on here?"
"Senior ...," Zhao Wanqing vomited blood out again.
Chu Xingcun: "..."
Okay, now that's an idea of what's going on.
