Treasure

In the village, the massacre was still going on.

However, the horse gang leader was pretending to talk about the morality of the martial world.

Nan Shan knew very well that it was because the horse gang leader was also a cultivator that he could feel his aura. He had no choice but to say this.

If it were anyone else, without the corresponding strength, they would have been chopped to death by this group of lawless horse gangsters.

“Little Brother, what do you mean by this?” The horse gang leader saw Nan Shan lowering his head and not saying a word, but slowly raising the long sword in his hand, he could not help but question with a more serious tone.

Before he could finish speaking, he had already leaned down from his horse. At the same time, he took out the knife on his back and ruthlessly chopped down at Nan Shan’s head!

Everything happened too quickly. Nan Shan could not help but sneer in his heart.

Those who could become bandits really did not have a shred of conscience left.

In addition, this horse gang leader was a traitor to the sect and was fickle, so he would definitely be shameless.

The pretentious act just now was all to make him let down his guard so that he could make a move and kill.

However, with the help of the nine tribulations mental cultivation method, Nan Shan’s eyes and ears were sharp, and he could clearly sense all the changes in the environment.

The horse gang leader’s small action of taking out the knife just now could not be hidden from him.

Facing the big knife, Nan Shan did not avoid it and even went forward.

The Devouring sword blocked upward.

It was clearly Nan Shan who attacked later, but his attack landed first!

Before the leader of the horse gang could use his full strength, he had already been knocked back by Nan Shan.

This time, the knife in his hand rolled far away with a clang, and even his arm was bent at a twisted angle.

It was obvious that the bones were broken.

“F*ck you, you little b*stard, how dare you touch our boss!”

“Brothers, let’s go! Kill him!”

The bandits who were originally laughing and watching the show suddenly roared angrily when they saw that their boss was losing.

Arrows were shot in the air, and some of the arrowheads were even on fire. They covered the sky and fell at Nan Shan.

These horse bandits committed all kinds of evil, including killing and plundering, and their means of backstabbing and underhanded tricks were endless.

Just as Nan Shan was moving forward to avoid the arrow rain, he suddenly felt that he had stepped on something.

He looked down and saw that the open space outside had been covered with a layer of netting, and he was standing on the edge.

“Whoosh.”

The entire patch of fallen leaves and soil behind him was thrown into the air. If Nan Shan had taken another step back, he would have definitely fallen into the trap.

Looking at it with the light of the fire, the rope was extremely strong and faintly glimmered. Coupled with the identity of the horse gang’s leader, it was clear whose work this tempered rope was.

“Since you’re in such a hurry to die, I won’t be polite.”

Nan Shan looked back and then turned his attention back to the front.

More than a hundred horse gang members waved their long knives and short swords in their hands and charged at him.

After all, in the eyes of mortals, Nan Shan was just a young boy in his early twenties. Although he had a strange sword in his hand, he was not a threat at all!

Countless people’s battle cries, coupled with the raging flames behind them, and the never-ending screams.

In such an environment, the emotions that Nan Shan had been suppressing just now exploded.

His eyes were bloodshot and his brows were slightly furrowed.

There was a faint murderous intent floating in the young and handsome voice.

In the next second, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Nan Shan slowly placed the Devouring sword in front of him.

Without any flashy moves, he thrust out his sword, and his spirit Qi moved at will. When this sword was unleashed, the dozen or so members of the horse gang who were charging at the forefront were all cut in half at the waist!

Even though their heads had already been separated from their bodies, they still had the strength to look down in disbelief. They took a few more steps out of inertia before they fell to the ground and died unwillingly.

Although this group of horse bandits all had mortal bodies, under the leadership of Chen Qiang, they more or less knew some methods of body tempering, and were stronger than ordinary martial arts practitioners.

However, in front of Nan Shan, it was not worth mentioning!

Finally, Nan Shan took a step towards the village. With every step, a few horse gangster members were killed by his sword.

The Devouring sword absorbed an unknown amount of blood and even began to buzz with excitement. At the same time, Nan Shan also felt the feeling of flesh and blood mixing together.

It was as if the Devouring sword was his other pair of hands. With a single thought, the sword’s will awoke!

As they walked, they killed. The hundreds of horse bandits were crushed by Nan Shan’s sword alone, and blood flowed like a river.

In fact, the shrill screams were even louder than those of the innocent villagers who were affected by the disaster.

The emotions in his heart became more turbulent. Nan Shan felt that everywhere he looked, his eyes were filled with blood.

The choking smell of the flames, mixed with the smell of blood, continuously provoked his already extremely tense nerves.

Suddenly, Nan Shan stopped in the middle of such an intense fight.

The horse gangsters had long been scared of him, and they were only putting up a stubborn resistance.

When the remaining dozens of people saw him suddenly stop, they immediately threw away the swords in their hands and ran back while screaming.

“Sword Qi.” Nan Shan lowered his head slightly and did not even look at the people who were running away.

As he said this, he threw the Devouring sword into the air. There was no other support, but the sharp sword stopped in the air.

A loud and clear buzzing sound echoed in the valley. Almost at the same time, the horse gangsters that ran out fell down layer by layer like wheat being cut by a scythe.

The ones who fell to the ground did not even have the space to struggle and died instantly.

“I thought I ran into some blind young master who came to the deep mountains to have fun. I didn’t expect it to be a cultivator.”

A cold voice entered Nan Shan’s ears. The tone was flat, but it could not hide the strong unwillingness in it.

“Why do you care who I am? For committing such a sin of murder, naturally, everyone has the right to punish me. Today, if it wasn’t for me, there would be someone else who would stop you.”

Nan Shan turned around. The gang leader’s limbs and joints had been broken by his sword. He was crumpled on the ground in a sorry state and could not move.

After the system’s reminder, Nan Shan had actually been more careful. He specifically attacked his joints in order to destroy the brute force he relied on.

“You’re making it sound nice, but you’re still after the village’s treasure, aren’t you?”

The horse gang leader muttered to himself. Suddenly, his eyes became sharp. An extremely weak and thin light shot out from his slightly trembling fingertips, directly towards Nan Shan’s face.

With a “Chi” sound, the Golden Bell shield moved at his will, tightly protecting Nan Shan.

The tiny light hit the Golden Bell shield with a crisp sound.

Then, a silver needle dipped in poison fell at Nan Shan’s feet.

In an instant, the grass that came into contact with the silver needle began to turn black and rot.
