"Little brother, you have a good rest first. I'll go out and take a look. Xiaocai, take care of me." Hearing the movement outside, the middle-aged man suddenly moved, frowned slightly, and then ran outside.
Caiyun looked at Chen Yu, curiosity flashing in her beautiful eyes, and she tilted her head, wondering what she was thinking.
As if he knew what Caiyun was thinking, Chen Yu smiled and said, "Caiyun, my name is Chen Yu. Are you curious whether what I just said is true or false?"
Caiyun nodded repeatedly. If it is true, then the village can avoid this crisis. It just needs to think longer, and in the end, it will still have to rely on itself.
"Brother Chen Yu, you must be a very powerful warrior, but I can't do anything." Caiyun said with admiration and envy, his beautiful eyes full of yearning.
"Caiyun, why do you want to practice!" Looking at the girl's expectant look, Chen Yu asked curiously, because this allowed him to see his former self, maybe he felt the same way!
"Because this way we can protect the people in the village and prevent them from living in fear and panic every day because of those bad guys." Caiyun said with an extremely serious look on his face, with an extremely determined look in his eyes.
Seemingly thinking of something, he quickly said: "You are so powerful, can you teach me how to practice? Chen Yu."
"Are you practicing to protect the people in the village?" Chen Yu murmured, suddenly realizing, "But I don't know how to teach people to practice, let's show up to see Uncle Li first!"
Hearing this, Caiyun's expectant look was slightly lost. Caiyun pursed her lips and nodded slightly, "Okay!"
...
"Village Chief Li, it's time to pay tribute." At the entrance of the village, a man with a ferocious expression said. Everyone behind him was holding a sharp long knife in his hand, and the leader was tall and had a horse face. , his dark and strong skin was exposed, and he was holding a huge ax in his hand. His disgusting cold eyes swept across the crowd, making everyone shiver in their hearts.
Pay tribute?
Uncle Li's face changed with shock. It had only been about seven days since the last time. In the past, he paid tribute once a month. He suppressed the anger in his heart and gritted his teeth and said: "We just paid tribute seven days ago."
"Why, you don't want to?" The horse-faced man at the head rolled his eyes, with a look of displeasure on his face. He actually dared to openly resist his order, and his eyes suddenly turned cold. "It seems that you have forgotten your other arm again." Why is it missing?"
"You, you deceived others too much. I accidentally saved your captain back then. Not only did you show no mercy, but you went the extra mile and killed wantonly. You will be punished by God." An old man with a cane had ferocious eyes and was furious in his heart. swore angrily.
The village has been tortured by these mercenary groups for many years. When I think of the family members who were killed by them, my body can't help but tremble, not with fear, but with anger and incomparable resentment.
"What are you yelling at, you old immortal? If there hadn't been a barrier to keep you huddled in the turtle shell, I would have fed you alive to the dogs on the spot." The horse-faced man in the lead said angrily, and then, a pair of narrow and wretched eyes narrowed slightly. Long Line, his eyes exuding a strong killing intent, "But it's almost over. It's been so many years. Even if there is a barrier to protect you, it will not last long now."
"Kill them. I haven't tasted blood for a long time."
"Kill the old immortal. Kill the men and keep the women."
"Stop struggling pointlessly."
...
The crowd behind him was booing, and their eyes showed undisguised ferocity and greed.
"You." The face of the old man on crutches turned blue with anger, and the anger in his heart welled up. He stared at the people in front of him, but when he thought of the day when the barrier disappeared, his face instantly dimmed and turned ashen. .
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and took a step forward. "See if you can slow down for a few days. We don't have much left. There are still some children who don't even have the most basic..."
The horse-faced man interrupted directly and said angrily: "That's your business, it has nothing to do with me. If not, I can hand over some beautiful little girls in your village, and I can save you from this death."
In fact, he had wanted to enter the village for a long time, but this barrier really made people feel depressed. If it hadn't been for this, he would have led people to rush in. Facing these unarmed and unresisting villagers, he liked the pleasure of killing.
"Our eldest brother told us to go back and find some beautiful women to make us comfortable. We..." A man behind him rubbed his hands obscenely and said in a deep voice with an evil look on his face, which made people feel very uncomfortable. Comfortable.
At this moment, a rapid sound of tearing the air sounded in the field, and the next moment, the eyes of the man who spoke were wide open.
laugh!
A bloody headache fell from the neck, and blood spattered everywhere. The scene once made people feel sick to their stomachs, and some people around him jumped in shock and hurried away.
The leading man frowned and narrowed his eyes at the figure walking not far from the village. He slowly raised the giant ax with murderous intent. The people behind him also raised the long knives in their hands and stared at the figure. At the sight of the figure, everyone in the village also turned their heads.
A young man walked out slowly with an indifferent expression, followed by a girl with delicate features and beautiful face.
Seeing the person coming, Uncle Li looked at the girl and scolded: "Xiao Cai, didn't I tell you? Take this little brother to have a good rest."
As the village chief, he is naturally respected by everyone, but unfortunately he is too weak. At the moment, he does not want to involve his injured brother.
Just as Caiyun was about to say something, Chen Yu smiled lightly and said, "Uncle Li, it's okay."
After saying that, he looked at the people outside the village and frowned, "Is this the Tiger Mercenary Group?"
After a careful scan, it was found that the strongest person was at the peak of Qi Realm, and the rest were ordinary martial practitioners. However, these people had been tyrannical and reckless all year round, treating human life as nothing, and their sins were unforgivable.
The leader of the horse-faced man frowned slightly, because the young man in front of him made him feel extremely dangerous. Even he didn't see clearly the sudden move just now. It was obvious that his strength was not inferior to his. He hesitated for a moment and looked at Li The village chief said coldly: "Village Chief Li, is this what you said?"
Uncle Li was about to speak when suddenly a sharp sword energy rushed out, as fast as the wind, and he was in front of the horse-faced man in an instant.
The horse-faced man's expression changed greatly in shock, and he quickly raised the giant ax in his hand without any hesitation.
boom!
A low explosion sounded, and the man's whole body trembled violently at first, and then he retreated violently backwards.
This is how the same thing?
Everyone in the field looked shocked. What happened just now? Why did the horse-faced man suddenly retreat crazily?
Caiyun looked at Chen Yu aside and said in disbelief: "Brother Chen Yu, was it you who did it just now?"
At this moment, everyone was still in shock. After a moment, they suddenly came to their senses. That attack was directed at the outsider, indicating that it was one of their own, but no one in the village was practicing, so who could it be? The next moment, everyone's eyes fell on Chen Yu's body.
Stopping, the horse-faced man looked at the young man in front of him in amazement. His heart was full of shock and fear, because the speed of the move just now was so fast that he didn't even react. If it hadn't been for the sudden sound of the wind. Hastily, he was on guard, otherwise he would have become a corpse now. Thinking of this, he took a deep breath.
Paying attention to everyone's gaze, Chen Yu smiled lightly but did not speak, his expression always looking calm.
"I don't know who you are, but I am a member of the Tiger Mercenary Group. If you don't mind, can we talk further?" The horse-faced man said respectfully, but he had already made a plan in his heart. I am not as good as you here. When you follow me to the mountain , I will make your life worse than death.
At this moment, another sword energy came through the air, reaching the horse-faced man's neck. Wherever it passed, the air flow became restless.
When the horse-faced man saw this, his face suddenly changed. His arms shook, and a huge aura surged up from his body. He slashed at the attack, cursing in his heart, what a damn sight. If there is a disagreement, take action.
There was an explosion, and as expected, the horse-faced man's huge body retreated violently. It didn't stop until it hit a big tree, and there was a long ravine beneath his feet.
This scene made everyone in the field confused. What was going on, especially the young men behind the horse-faced man. They knew well what kind of strength this leader was, but now, they were knocked back again and again. , and seemed to have no power to fight back at all.
"Boy, I think you are looking for death. If you have the guts, get out and hide in a turtle shell." A soldier from the mercenary group cursed angrily, and the murderous intent in his eyes had already turned into reality.
The horse-faced man looked at the soldier angrily, cursing in his heart, "These idiots really don't think they died fast enough!"
"Little brother, don't be fooled by them." The middle-aged man said quickly.
Caiyun also nodded worriedly.
"Uncle Li, Caiyun, it's okay. As I said before, they are all a bunch of rubbish. Don't take it too seriously." Chen Yu said calmly without fear, paused for a moment, and then walked slowly outside.
Rubbish?
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the village and outside looked at the young man in front of them with surprised expressions. Was he arrogant, ignorant, or arrogant? Just as they were just one step away from leaving the barrier, a group of mercenary groups suddenly tensed up. He held the long knife in his hand and looked at Chen Yu as if he were a corpse.
But they didn't notice that the horse-faced man beside them had already darkened to the extreme, his face was ashen, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Just when he took the last step, a strong murderous aura spread from the field. The next moment, a group of mercenary group members directly raised their long swords and slashed at Chen Yu. The momentum even frightened the people in the village. If they angered this group of mercenaries, they would be unable to eat and walk around, and the consequences can be imagined.
Caiyun's beautiful eyes stared closely at Chen Yu, and the worry in her heart made her clenched palms drip with cold sweat.
Some villagers couldn't bear to witness the bloody scene that followed and closed their eyes tightly.
"Kill, kill him for me!"
A group of mercenaries were like ferocious hungry wolves, with vicious and murderous auras rushing towards Chen Yu like a spring. Only the horse-faced man at the head had a frozen expression.
At this moment, the air froze.
