Douluo: Peerless Blood Hunter Huo Yuhao

Chapter 9 Shadows in the Forest
"If you are asking for wealth, we can give you all our wealth. At least, please let my daughter go, please."

The middle-aged woman holding the little girl begged humbly for mercy, full of despair.

The little girl next to her cried directly, "Mom~"

The middle-aged woman took the little girl into her arms, held her tightly, and looked at the bandits, longing for a slim hope.

The screams sounded from a distance, and even from a distance, people could still feel the pain in the sounds.

The villagers' hearts sank. Apparently, another person from the same village had been caught.

"Ask for money?"

"Haha, I think you guys don't understand the situation."

The bandits looked at each other and laughed loudly.It seemed that they did not intend to let a few villagers go.

The one-eyed man blocking the way smiled ferociously: "What we want is not money."

How much money can a small village have?
What matters to them is the villagers themselves and nothing else.Their leader is an evil soul master who recently needs a group of living people to practice.

Therefore, except for those who were directly killed by the leader, the rest of the escapees were only wounded but not killed.

The vitality of the dead will quickly pass away, and the soul will also dissipate. Even the soul of an innocent person cannot stay for a long time.

For their leader, unless they want to make living corpse-like human biological weapons, directly killing people is a huge waste of cultivation resources.

"You guys have been spotted by the leader, don't even think about running away." The bandits began to step forward.

"My brother will come to save us," the little girl held by her mother cried. "My brother is a soul master. He will definitely drive away you bad guys. After he beats away the big bad guy, he will Come."

It can be seen that the little one trusts her brother very much. Even though she is scared, she still has hope in him.

It seemed that in the next second her brother would descend from heaven and fight off a few bad guys, and then he would hold her gently and say let's go home.

"Your brother, a soul master? Let me think about it, is he the troublemaker?"

The one-eyed man recalled that when they first broke into the village, their accomplices arrested the villagers.Some people were directly devoured by the leader with their martial souls on the spot and turned into nutrients for the leader.

They had done this more than once.The residents of those villages were helpless and turned into lambs to be slaughtered one by one.

This is a world with soul masters, but not everyone can become a soul master.There is a soul master in the village, even if it is just a first-level soul master, the villagers will be proud of it.

For a village without a soul master, even ordinary bandits carrying weapons are a big threat, let alone if they are led by an evil soul master.

As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, your shoes will never get wet.

The village I met this time happened to have a soul master.

In other words, he was talking about a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old boy dressed as an Orion.As soon as the boy came out, he killed more than ten companions.

The gap between soul masters and ordinary people is huge. There are only a few soul masters in this group, and the one-eyed man is only a second-level soul master. Even so, he is still the second-largest figure among the bandits.

If the leader hadn't taken action in time, this group of people would have lost a lot of people.

Taking advantage of the gap created by the young man, many villagers escaped.Only then did they come to catch up.

Not only for the leader's training needs, but also for the safety of the group.It would be foolish to leave him alive.

The three major empires that Douluo originally belonged to had a very firm attitude towards the evil soul master. This was the bottom line.

"Many of our brothers died in his hands," the one-eyed man gritted his teeth. Another one-ring soul master among the bandits had a good relationship with him, but he was killed by the young man right next to him. This made him shocked and angry. "But, he has been stopped by our leader. You should be able to see his body later, maybe you will see him being trained into a living corpse. Then your family will be reunited."

He was very confident in the leader's strength.After all, their leader had killed a soul master before, and he was already an intermediate soul master.

"You, you lied." The little girl cried loudly.Her mother hugged the little girl tightly. Now that the matter was over, she knew that this group of people would not let them go.

"Hmph, take him away!" The one-eyed man was obviously impatient. With a wave of his hand, he directed several subordinates to take him away.

"Don't stand still, let's go!"

The bandits scolded and pointed their bows and crossbows at the unarmed villagers who were fleeing in a hurry. Some of them wanted to put their knives directly on the villagers' necks.

The fat man who was stepping on the middle-aged man released his foot, pulled up his hair, and tried to take the middle-aged man away.

shhhhhh!
Three throwing knives were thrown with a sharp sound, but no one present reacted.

Flying knives passed through the forest like silver raindrops. A flying knife pierced the fat man's hand, and the hand that was originally holding the middle-aged man spattered with blood.

The flying knife did not stop, and the huge force nailed the fat man's hand to the tree. The blade sank into the trunk of the tree, and only the black handle was exposed on the skin of the palm.

The huge pain made the fat man howl like a slaughtering pig.

There were two metallic crunching sounds.

The other two flying knives, one bounced away the knife placed on the villager's neck, and the other shot down the crossbow pointed at the villager.

The two bandits, who had lost their knives and crossbows, felt their jaws numb from the shock.

"Who, who is!"

"Get out!"

The bandits panicked.In the final analysis, they are just a bunch of people who bully the weak and fear the strong.

He usually bullies men and dominates women, takes human lives seriously, and does all kinds of evil, but when he encounters masters, he becomes more and more intimidated.

Previously, the young man in the village killed many of his companions. Several people saw their companions die tragically and were frightened.

What's going on? Another soul master is taking action?

Several bandits who were not soul masters looked panicked and looked around.

"What a panic, there is no soul power fluctuation, I am a soul master, what are you afraid of!"

The one-eyed man scolded several subordinates, but the fat man's miserable condition still made him look bad.Light cyan light surged out of his body, which was his soul power.

He did not feel the fluctuation of soul power. As a soul master, unless another soul master took action, there was basically no threat to him.

But judging from the three throwing knives, he knew that the person who threw the flying knives was not simple. With such force, he would be injured even if he was hit without using soul power to protect his body.

There are always some outliers in the world, such as some people who cannot become soul masters, but are born with supernatural powers, which is not a small problem for low-level soul masters.

It's just that there are very few of these people, fewer than high-level soul masters.At the same time, their upper limit is also very low. They are a threat to low-level soul masters, but it is difficult to pose a fatal threat.

This is also the reason why the one-eyed man did not panic like several of his subordinates. The cultivation of the second-level soul master gave him confidence.

The only thing that troubled him was that this person hadn't shown up yet.It is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.He was not worried about his own safety, but several of his subordinates were afraid that they would have to explain themselves here.

"Over there, the second boss, someone is coming!"

A sharp-eyed bandit pointed at the one-eyed man's back and shouted loudly. Just now, he was knocked off the machete by a flying knife, and now the hand that originally held the flying knife was still numb.

The one-eyed man turned around sharply.

The forest was dim, and the blood-colored light of the setting sun left sparse beams of light in the forest.

A black shadow walked towards them, "The accuracy of the flying knife is pretty good, let's just throw it directly at the vital point next time."

It sounded like a young man's voice, although it was cold and still a bit childish. His face was shrouded in the shadow of the hat, making it impossible to see his appearance and expression clearly.
