Chapter 1091 Captured alive

"Shen Tu Tai is charging in!"

Before the exclamation could even spread, a scream of agony rang out the next moment, and the person who uttered the scream was pierced through the chest by a spear!

The man looked down in disbelief, his eyes wide as he stared at the spot on his chest that gleamed with a cold light, from which blood was gushing out. The next moment, a powerful force came from the long spear, and he was forcefully lifted into the air!

Seeing this, everyone around was stunned and exclaimed as they backed away to both sides.

This retreat cleared a path for them. Shen Tu Tai held the reins in one hand and a long spear in the other, with the spear handle tucked under his arm. He hoisted the struggling man into the air and sped forward. The blood flowing from the man's body was sprayed in all directions, drenching everyone's faces. The stench of blood and the cruel scene shocked everyone so much that not a single person stepped forward to stop him.

Shen Tu Tai and his men moved as if they were in an empty place, and in a short while they had run far away.

Gradually, he spotted a familiar figure amidst the chaotic crowd ahead—but it wasn't Shi Yutao; rather, it was the crimson steed beneath him, a sight to behold even in the midst of the army.

At that moment, Shi Yutao's gaze also passed over the swaying crowd and saw Shen Tu Tai charging forward.

He was taken aback.

He hadn't had enough of the fight yet, and he thought he still had the strength to fight Shen Tu Tai. But because Shen Tu Tai himself was unwilling to fight, he took advantage of his mentality and retreated with his men. He never expected that Shen Tu Tai would actually come up and charge into their thousands of men with only a dozen or so men.

Isn't this a reward delivered right to our doorstep?!

Shi Yutao was overjoyed and instinctively gripped his battle axe, ready to charge forward. But the next moment, he saw that Shen Tu Tai was carrying a person on his spear. After the jolt, the person gradually died, hanging like a piece of dead flesh on the tip of the spear, with blood gushing out in all directions, staining most of the corpse red.

Blood drifted onto Shen Tu Tai's face and body. He was like a blood-soaked tiger, rushing forward with an incomparably fierce killing intent. The surging murderous aura intimidated the surrounding soldiers so much that none of them dared to step forward to stop him.

This horrific scene also stunned Shi Yutao.

He still gripped the broadsword tightly in his hand, but he didn't have the strength to move it. Instead, the squad of guards beside him, in their panic, reacted and shouted, "Protect the young master!"

After saying that, the people who were closest immediately turned their horses around and rode to Shi Yutao's side.

These men rode forward, blocking Shi Yutao like a wall. Shen Tu Tai frowned, but did not stop his horse. Instead, he spurred his horse and charged even harder. The distance between them was only about ten feet, and he showed no sign of stopping. The guards blocking Shi Yutao's way panicked and drew their swords, ready to charge forward.

Just as the two sides were about to clash, Shen Tu Tai suddenly raised his long spear, swung the corpse twice in the air, and flung it forward!

Everyone gasped in fright.

Those who were blocking Shi Yutao's path didn't even have time to react before everything went black. Then, the corpse slammed into them, causing several to lose their balance and tumble off their horses, falling to the ground. The others barely managed to regain their footing, and as soon as they looked up, Shen Tu Tai had already rushed in front of them. His long spear moved like a dragon emerging from the sea, striking the men left and right with several muffled thuds. They were all knocked off their horses and fell to the ground.

In an instant, everyone blocking Shi Yutao's way was swept away by Shen Tu Tai.

Shi Yutao's eyes widened in disbelief at what was happening before him. Shen Tu Tai's fierce tiger-like face was already close at hand, and the long spear in his hand was like a venomous snake that suddenly leaped out, attacking his face.

"ah!"

He suddenly let out a short cry of surprise and instinctively raised his axe to block.

But the moment he released the reins to fight Shen Tu Tai, the spear that was thrusting straight at him suddenly bent and was pulled away from his face. Instead, it picked up the reins he had just released and wrapped them around the spear with a gentle twist!

With a flick of Shen Tu Tai's wrist, the reins of the long spear were immediately straightened, and Shi Yutao's horse was pulled two steps toward him.

Shi Yutao was shocked and immediately realized what was happening. He swung his axe at Shen Tu Tai, but Shen Tu Tai calmly blocked the attack and then swung his long spear to deflect several of Shi Yutao's attacks. As he swung his spear, the reins tightened, and the fiery red horse shook its head uncomfortably, but was still being pulled step by step toward Shen Tu Tai.

Now Shi Yutao finally understood what Shen Tu Tai was up to, and he panicked completely. He hurriedly raised his axe to cut the reins wrapped around the spear, but Shen Tu Tai would not allow him to do so. With a few clangs, he blocked Shi Yutao's axe, and at the same time, he swung the spear. The reins wrapped around the spear flew through the air in an arc and just happened to loop around Shi Yutao's neck!

"General!"

The surrounding soldiers were stunned. Several dared to rush forward, but they were immediately blocked by the soldiers who followed Shen Tu Tai. Xue Lin, in particular, was brave and decisive. He swept his spear horizontally and knocked down the five or six soldiers at the front, preventing the others from rushing forward.

The surrounding chaos intensified Shi Yutao's panic. Feeling his neck being choked, he lost his composure and raised his axe to strike Shen Tu Tai, wanting only to kill the man in front of him to escape his predicament. However, Shen Tu Tai ignored the axe that was coming down on him and instead forcefully spun the long spear in his hand. With a whooshing sound, the reins were tightened completely and directly strangled Shi Yutao's neck.

"ah--"

Shi Yutao cried out in alarm, and the next moment, the sharp blade of the long spear was already pressed against his throat!

The long axe in his hand stopped just above Shen Tu Tai's head!

For a moment, both of them stopped breathing.

Not only his breathing stopped, but Shi Yutao even felt his heartbeat stop at that moment. He couldn't hear or see anything, he could only feel the sharp blade pressed against his throat. Because he had just killed someone, the blade still retained the warmth of the human body and the strong smell of blood. The smell made him shudder, and suddenly he felt his hand go limp.

He had actually placed the axe diagonally to one side.

Seeing this, Shen Tu Tai sneered and immediately raised the long spear in his hand: "Go!"
