A doctor, kneeling on the ground, secretly raised his head. After scanning Li Yu's line, he immediately noticed the problem. A glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and he quickly called out to Li Yu:
"Commander, your team doesn't have a medic yet!"
"I'm a professional doctor with many years of experience. Let me join your team, and I'll do my best to serve everyone! I promise..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Yu gave an order:
"kill!"
The refugees behind them swarmed forward and pinned them to the ground.
Behind each person stood a refugee, holding a sharp knife to the neck of the doctor and nurse, pressed tightly against their skin.
At this moment, the doctors finally realized that they were doomed, and despair and fear overwhelmed them.
They began to struggle frantically and desperately, shouting at the top of their lungs:
"You thugs! You will not be spared if you kill my General Zhongzhou!"
"A life for a life! The ironclad laws of Zhongzhou will sentence you to death!"
"And you, Zhou Renxuan! You traitor, you will surely die a horrible death!"
However, Zhou Renxuan, who stood by and watched coldly, remained unmoved, as if he hadn't heard a thing. Instead, he silently walked into Li Yu's group.
Li Yu waved her hand forcefully.
The knives in the hands of the refugees slashed mercilessly, and blood splattered everywhere in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, all the medical staff who had been involved collapsed in pools of blood.
As the heavy rain washed over the area, the strong, pungent smell of blood quickly spread, and a red stream filled the entire hospital, sending chills down one's spine.
At the hospital's main entrance, Wucheng's guard captain had already led a group of soldiers to the scene.
Surprisingly, although they arrived at the scene, they remained standing outside the hospital.
Even after Li Yu took action, they did not do anything to stop the bloody massacre.
When Li Yu led his men out, the guard captain finally stepped forward.
"Commander Li Yu..." He seemed to want to explain something.
"No need to say more." Li Yu simply waved her hand, interrupting the other party.
Because Li Yu knew very well that the mastermind behind this incident was the General of Zhongzhou, and the commander of the guards of Wucheng was powerless to do anything about it and could not change the situation at all.
Given the power of the General of Zhongzhou, the fact that Wucheng has not yet taken sides or hindered Li Yu's actions speaks volumes.
Ma Yuanbai also stepped forward and said, "Guard captain, we'll leave now and won't cause you any trouble."
The guard captain nodded. If Li Yu's team wanted to stay in Wucheng, then he would indeed be in a difficult position.
Wucheng has already investigated and found that the general who was appointed as the regimental commander of Li Yu and the general involved in this hospital incident belong to two different factions within the military.
Their small, remote city of Wucheng really didn't want to get involved in such a fierce power struggle between high-ranking officials, including generals.
That's why the higher-ups in Wucheng sent him, the lowly guard captain in charge of the city gates, to communicate with Commander Li Yu and clearly express their intention to remain neutral.
As Li Yu led the group slowly towards the city gates.
A soldier standing to the side couldn't help but glance at the desolate scene inside the hospital, and cautiously stepped forward to ask in a low voice:
"Guard captain, are we just going to let them go like that?"
Upon hearing this, the guard captain turned around and glared fiercely at the soldier, replying irritably:
"What else can you do? Which of the two generals from Zhongzhou would you dare to offend?"
The soldier quickly lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.
The guard captain waved his hand forcefully and shouted:
"Stop standing here like idiots! Get inside now and clean the hospital spotless. And get the work done quickly!"
After saying that, the guard chief took the lead and stepped into the hospital gate.
Seeing this, the other soldiers had no choice but to follow and enter the hospital, where they began to slowly clean up the corpses and bloodstains scattered on the ground.
The guard captain stood in the courtyard, watching the stream of red water, his lips moving slightly as he murmured to himself:
"Going west is difficult."
......
On the other side, Li Yu had already led everyone out of Wucheng on his little black horse.
Li Yu knew clearly that the person behind this incident was Zhou Zhenbei, a general in Zhongzhou with immense power.
Finding such a powerful figure to settle scores with is no easy task.
After all, Zhou Zhenbei is a high-ranking figure, not someone that just anyone can meet.
Perhaps at this moment, Zhou Zhenbei had no idea of Li Yu's group's existence, let alone take such an insignificant opponent seriously.
Even knowing that it was a general from Zhongzhou, Li Yu did not back down at all. He just thought to himself that he must improve his strength as much as possible on the way to Jincheng.
Li Yu glanced back at the baby in the crystal coffin behind her, her eyes sharp.
No matter how difficult it is, he will make Zhou Zhenbei pay the price.
After a long march, the group finally stopped as night fell and began to set up camp to rest.
After a day of events, Li Yu felt a bit tired and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Just as Li Yu fell asleep, a sudden commotion arose in his mind.
Immediately afterwards, a figure, as ghostly as a ghost, quietly appeared.
This person was actually Xu Tang, the assassin who had been killed by Li Yu during the day.
"Do you think just anyone can make it onto the assassin list?" Xu Tang's ethereal phantom muttered to himself.
This is Xu Tang's true ability—'Delayed Death'.
His special ability will be delayed until after his death.
This ability allows him to continue invading the mind's spiritual sea in spirit form for a period of time after his death, launching a fatal blow against the target who killed him.
"I will kill you again and again in my dreams, so that you will never dare to sleep again, and will forever live in fear of death! Hahahaha..."
With this burst of maniacal laughter, Xu Tang's spiritual body suddenly transformed into a sharp blade, plunging fiercely towards Li Yu's spiritual sea.
"Go to hell."
"Aww!"
A bloodcurdling scream suddenly echoed throughout the space.
With this scream, the Nightmare Beast awoke from its slumber with a pained look in its eyes.
A huge eye suddenly appeared, glaring angrily around.
Apart from the sharp pain emanating from my own body, there seemed to be nothing else in my mental sea.
The Nightmare Beast scanned the surroundings, finally looking incredulously at the infant spirit nestled in a corner of the white mist in the distance.
"Could it be it?" the Nightmare Beast wondered to itself.
But the infant spirit clearly didn't move at all from beginning to end.
"What exactly happened?"
