Wu Shattered Star River

#71 - Chapter 71 Sneak Attack

Atop Dragonfall Mountain, a massive ice city stood tall!

With the ice city as the center, over twenty small teams, consisting of three hundred Cloud Dream Pavilion disciples, spread out in all directions.

One after another, demonic beasts were slain, their blood staining the nearby mountain ranges red.

A dozen people were organized near the mines to specifically burn the corpses of the demonic beasts, otherwise, too much accumulation could easily lead to plagues.

Apart from the elite teams, the rest of the teams were very conservative, only seeking out first-order demonic beasts to eliminate.

Therefore, there were no major battle losses like on the first day, and no one else died.

On the other hand, the elite teams were actively searching for second-order demonic beasts. First-order demonic beasts were no longer challenging for them; hunting second-order demonic beasts brought a sense of accomplishment.

In one day, the God-Slaying Team hunted down over a dozen second-order demonic beasts and hundreds of first-order ones.

Jiang Han once again hunted down two Rending-Blade Apes, obtaining two drops of essence blood.

As before, Qi Bing froze the Rending-Blade Ape, Zuo Yiyi smashed it with a hammer, and then Jiang Han used Shadow Shift to pierce the Rending-Blade Ape's head with a blade.

The cooperation of the three became more and more proficient, and several second-order demonic beasts were killed through their combined efforts.

The three's supernatural abilities complemented each other perfectly. Qi Bing could freeze demonic beasts or slow down their speed.

Zuo Yiyi's powerful attacks could injure the demonic beast's head, making it dizzy and its reaction more sluggish.

Finally, Jiang Han's Shadow Shift assault could often penetrate the demonic beast's head with one move, delivering a fatal blow.

"Let's go back!"

Seeing that it was getting dark, Zuo Yiyi waved her hand, and the group began to return.

There were too many demonic beasts to eliminate in just a few days. Maintaining good physical strength and energy was necessary for sustained combat.

After Jiang Han and the others returned, on a high mountain a thousand feet away from them, several figures appeared.

Watching Jiang Han and the others' backs from afar, a handsome young man frowned and said, "This won't do. Are we just going to wait in the wild forever?"

"Young Master Linfeng, don't be impatient!"

Chen Zhong smiled and comforted him, "Fifth Elder has already issued an order to let each team fight on its own. At this rate of elimination, in two or three days, the distance between each team will become greater and greater, and then it will be easier for us to act."

"That's right!"

Another deacon, Liu Jun, said, "We are currently close to Dragonfall City. If we make a move and they release signal flares, reinforcements from the city will be troublesome."

"How about… Young Master Linfeng goes back first? And comes back in three days?"

Zhou Jianliang, the head of the Zhou family, with a large bald head and a burly figure, showed a flattering smile on his face and said, "It will probably take three or four days for them to disperse, and by then, each team will be at least dozens of miles away from Dragonfall City. That way, even if reinforcements come from the city, it will be enough for us to leave after we succeed."

Zhou Jianliang felt that Han Linfeng was used to being pampered and would find it too uncomfortable to spend the night in the wild, so he advised him to go back first.

"Forget it!"

Han Linfeng waved his hand and said, "It's only a few days. I'll just find a cave to cultivate for a few days. I can still endure this bit of hardship. If I don't personally capture Jiang Han and torture him, it will be difficult to quell the hatred in my heart!"

"By the way!"

Han Linfeng remembered another matter and asked, "Why is this beast tide so fierce this time? There haven't been so many demonic beasts gathered in history, right?"

"I don't know!"

Chen Zhong frowned, with some suspicion in his eyes, and said, "It is indeed a bit strange. Could something major have happened in the depths of the Sky Fox Mountain Range? Were the demonic beasts inside driven out? But why are they all gathering towards Dragonfall Mountain?"

"Who cares!"

Liu Jun waved his hand and said, "The important figures in the pavilion will naturally worry about these things. We just need to do our job well. Let's go, it's getting dark, let's go to the cave from last night to spend the night."

The five did not linger and quickly turned and left. When the five encountered demonic beasts on the road, they did not kill them, but only knocked them away. Killing too many demonic beasts would easily leave traces.

The next two days were the same as the first day. Each team fought on its own, eliminating the nearby demonic beasts.

These two days were lucky for Jiang Han. He encountered a total of six Rending-Blade Apes, which Jiang Han, Qi Bing, and Zuo Yiyi easily hunted down together.

He had already killed eight Rending-Blade Apes, and Jiang Han was somewhat impatient. It was almost dark, but he still had to continue hunting demonic beasts…

After three days of elimination, there were no demonic beasts within a hundred miles around Dragonfall City.

However, since a large force was mobilized for the elimination, the nearby demonic beasts would definitely be swept away all at once.

This time was a very rewarding one for each team. Killing demonic beasts earned merit points, and merit points could be exchanged for mystic artifacts, pills, mystic materials, and mystic techniques.

In addition, the demonic beast materials belonged to the individual, so all the disciples made a small fortune.

Zuo Yiyi and Qi Bing were very generous, and all the demonic beast materials were given to Jiang Han, Jiang Lang, and Niu Meng.

One of them was the daughter of the pavilion master, and the other was the granddaughter of the grand elder, so they were not short of resources.

In three days, a total of fourteen people died in battle and more than twenty were seriously injured. This casualty rate was normal. With so many demonic beasts and such intense battles, it was impossible for no one to die.

On the fourth day, Jiang Han and the others set out early in the morning, and Jiang Han insisted on continuing to move in the direction of yesterday.

Because he had hunted down three Rending-Blade Apes yesterday, and he only needed to hunt down two more today.

Sure enough, two Rending-Blade Apes were encountered in one morning, and Jiang Han put the two inner cores into his spatial ring, feeling very excited.

He did not refine them on the spot, planning to wait until he returned at night to refine the ten drops of essence blood together.

In the afternoon.

The God-Slaying Team entered a large mountain with dense forests. There were many demonic beasts in this mountain, and the group had another hard battle.

The demonic beasts in this mountain were a very peculiar type of demonic beast, the Goat-Faced Spider.

These spiders could spin silk, and the silk was very strong. When a dozen strands of spider silk were entangled together, Jiang Han could not cut it off even with full strength. Fortunately, the Goat-Faced Spider's attack power was not strong, only the spider silk was troublesome.

After eliminating for more than an hour, they finally managed to kill all the spider groups nearby.

Everyone was so tired that their eyes rolled back, and they all sat down to rest against the trees without any regard for their image.

"Whoosh!"

Two sounds of air being torn apart suddenly rang out from the left. Qi Bing and Zuo Yiyi reacted the fastest, and their eyes immediately swept over.

Their expressions changed at the same time. Qi Bing's body shot up, her long sword danced, and a surge of cold air gushed out, sweeping forward.

Two sharp arrows flashing with a faint light were frozen in mid-air by the cold air. Jiang Han and Jiang Lang exchanged a glance, and both of their eyes revealed anger.

These sharp arrows were obviously quenched with poison, they were trying to take their lives!

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

Two sounds of air being torn apart rang out again, and two sharp arrows shot over, locking onto Zuo Yiyi and Qi Bing respectively.

This time, Qi Bing was prepared and did not release her supernatural ability. She waved her long sword and deflected the sharp arrows.

"How dare you? You dare to sneak attack this young lady, get out here for me!"

Zuo Yiyi deflected the sharp arrows and roared in fury. She saw figures flashing in the distance and, without any hesitation, her petite body shot away.

"Roar ~"

Qi Bing was also angry. If she had not reacted quickly to the two sharp arrows in the first round, she would have been poisoned to death.!

Someone wanted Zuo Yiyi and her life, how could she swallow her anger?

Qi Bing rushed away, Niu Meng roared angrily, released his body, and earth-yellow scales appeared all over his body, roaring away.

"Chase!"

Jiang Han and Jiang Lang exchanged a glance, both of them feeling a little surprised and uncertain.

Zuo Yiyi and Qi Bing were of noble status. Daring to assassinate them was equivalent to declaring war on Ling Yunmeng and the Grand Elder. Who had such great courage?

"Damn it!"

A large handful of divine talismans appeared in Jiang Lang's hand, and he roared, "Dare to assassinate my Bingbing, no matter who it is, they will die today!"
