C119 Massacre
Gu Yuan's pupils shrank as he hurriedly asked the dying villager: "Are you a villager from this village? "Who did it!?"
Hearing Gu Yuan's question, the villager covered in blood nodded with great effort and said intermittently, "Yes …" It was … It was the Cyan Peak Pirates. Not yet. "He didn't run far."
Seeing that there were people in the village, Gu Yuan put them down and chased in the direction pointed out by the villagers.
Gu Yuan was not a nosy person. Gu Yuan had experienced the law of the jungle in this world and was mentally prepared. If it was in reality, Gu Yuan might not care about such things, unless it happened right in front of his eyes.
However, this was an illusion. Him appearing in that village clearly meant that this trial was related to that village, so from what he had experienced, if the owner of the illusion encountered something like this, he wouldn't just stand by and do nothing.
At this moment, he was on someone else's territory. In order to pass the challenge as soon as possible, Gu Yuan had no choice but to follow the master of the illusion.
Obviously, these villagers met with bandits. If it was normal, then it would be alright. Although he didn't know the reason, Gu Yuan decided to use the fastest and most direct way to solve this problem. That was to chase up.
Invitation to Wine!
Swoosh! Gu Yuan, who was already very fast, sped up once again. He almost turned into a gale as he crazily charged forward.
The sound of hooves came from the front.
Gu Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He knew that the culprit was right in front of him.
Swoosh ~
A series of afterimages flashed by and Gu Yuan appeared directly in front of the horse, scaring these people and causing them to stop immediately.
Gu Yuan sized up the group. There were more than a dozen people with weapons in their hands and blood dripping from their wounds. The leader of the group had a knife scar on his face. He should be the leader of these people.
"Little bastard, you're courting death."
Suddenly, he was stopped. Seeing that it was a young man blocking his path, the scar-faced bandit was enraged. The blade in his hand made a sound as it hacked towards Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan's expression turned cold, "He really is that bandit who doesn't care about the lives of others. Just because he stopped them, he actually attacked without even saying a word."
Bang!
Just as the knife was about to hit, the bandit leader saw that the youth's figure seemed to blur for a moment. Then, his leader inexplicably spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.
Ignoring the shocked bandits, Gu Yuan took out the Fangtian Halberd from his backpack and coldly asked: "Why did you slaughter the villagers!"
The leader collapsed on the ground as he continued to wail. The minions were all stunned as they did not know how to respond.
One of the smarter ones rolled his eyes and shouted: "Brat, don't think that you are amazing just because you have some ability. We are Cyan Peak Pirates, and our leader is a powerful warrior.
Ignoring the threat from the bandits, Gu Yuan directly took action.
Fangtian Cleaving!
Divine Might of Great Sage!
Gu Yuan was merciless when it came to these murderers and robbers, and this was his strongest attack method.
A series of sounds of flesh being cut, more than a dozen bandits, even people and horses, were killed by Gu Yuan before they could even cry out. All that was left was the scar-faced leader lying on the ground, stunned.
Bathing in blood and carrying a killing weapon upside down, Gu Yuan walked towards the leader step by step like a devil.
"You … You, you …. What are you trying to do! "
Gu Yuan was cold and indifferent as he continued to walk over.
The leader of the scarred men completely collapsed. Although he had relied on his blade to lick his blood, he had never seen anything like this where he had killed more than a dozen of his men in two moves. Even his horse was chopped into several pieces.2
"I beg of you, don't kill me. I have money, so I can give you a lot of money. Please let me go, okay?"
Gu Yuan picked the leader up and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you now. I shouldn't be the one to kill you."
When they returned to the Fu Family Village, Gu Yuan heard the sound of crying from afar and his heart ached.
In the center of the village, the old elder and the others were gathered together. The families of the dead were crying their hearts out while holding their bloodied heads. The atmosphere was extremely heavy.
Seeing Gu Yuan come back, the crowd parted and threw the scarred leader onto the ground. Gu Yuan's tone also turned serious as he said, "This is one of the killers. I've brought him back for you to deal with."
The families of the dead rushed up as they screamed desperately, biting and kicking at the leader. The leader was tied up by Gu Yuan, so he could not avoid it. He could only wail and beg for mercy.
When Gu Yuan saw this scene, he was touched. In the blink of an eye, his loved ones were separated forever. This was a grief that no one had ever experienced before.
At this moment, the village chief walked over shakily. What made Gu Yuan surprised was that the village chief did not feel happy about his enemy being beheaded. Instead, he had a look of deep worry on his face.
The Village Chief looked at Gu Yuan and said, "Child, we know you have good intentions, but you have harmed us by killing these people."
Gu Yuan was surprised and didn't understand what the Old Village Head meant.
The old Village Chief smiled bitterly and explained, "This Qingfeng Pirates is the biggest group of thieves in the area, there are hundreds of them and our village is afraid of them. Every year, we will hand over half of their harvest in exchange for peace, but last year's drought caused the village to have almost no harvests, so the Qingfeng Pirates are not satisfied, this time killing our village is also a warning."
Hearing this, Gu Yuan finally understood. No wonder these thieves killed people for no reason.
The Old Village Chief continued, "Originally, a few villagers died because of our grief, but now that you've killed their men, the Qingfeng Pirates will definitely not let us off."
Gu Yuan understood, he was probably doing this out of the kindness of his heart.
However, Gu Yuan didn't regret it and immediately said, "Old man, you don't have to worry. Do you know where the base of the Qingfeng Pirates is? I will go and exterminate them all."
The old elder was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Gu Yuan with wide eyes. He never expected Gu Yuan to say that.
However, he still hesitated and said, "Child, I don't blame you. I know you are Cultivator, but there are a lot of Qingfeng bandits and there are many experts among them. It is very dangerous for you to go alone."
Seeing that Gu Yuan was adamant, the old elder had no choice but to inform him of the location.
"Old man, don't worry. I don't think much of this small Qingfeng Stronghold." With that, he disappeared from the sight of the villagers with a few flashes.
The Qingfeng Stronghold was located on top of a mountain peak in the Qingfeng Mountain Range. The mountain peak was not high, the location was hidden, and the terrain was steep. Moreover, there were not many ferocious beasts around and the strength was not high either.
