46. The Wolf Demon Attacks
He came over, panting, and said loudly, "Everyone, we can't make the same mistake again."
"If we kill this official today, that would be treason!"
"Everyone, stop obeying the big dog's orders! Lay down your weapons, there's still a chance to survive." A delicate face, deathly pale!
"Tu Zhe, you actually ran out." Tu Da Gou, the leader of the Tu family, heard him call his name, his voice filled with murderous intent.
Tsuchigari retorted, "Bah! You treacherous wolf! My father kindly took you in as his adopted son, and you dared to plot against him! You are utterly heartless!"
Tu Da Gou stroked his dark satin robe, adorned with delicate gold thread. Looking at the young man expressionlessly, he said, "My godfather took me in, and in gratitude, I naturally want to ensure a good life for everyone in Tujia Fortress."
'Also, I didn't cause my godfather's death!'
Then she became furious! "What's wrong with me? Tell me! My Tujia spear technique is unparalleled, I practice it tirelessly year-round! You take the imperial examinations every day, but what's the result? You still fail, and you're just a mere candidate for the lowest degree. Besides, what's wrong with me, Miss? Tell me, tell me!"
Then, "Look, look! Now everyone is living a good life. They've refined their swords, armor, and bows! Everyone wears leather and iron armor! How is it any worse than when the master was here? Besides, even the county magistrate is willing to do this, so why are you so stubborn? You can't see through it all; in this border region, might makes right."
As he spoke, he pointed out the weapons and armor of his subordinates around him to Tsuchiya.
"Everyone, put down your weapons!" A clear voice rang out. A girl of about 18 years old walked quickly over, dressed in a dark green dress. She had a delicate, fair, and slender face, and the moonlight reflected in her clear eyes, which held an unspeakable sorrow and worry.
As the big dog watched the girl approach, his eyes were filled with adoration and a hint of anger and dissatisfaction.
"Little sister, what brings you here? Go back quickly." Tsuchiyatari said as soon as he saw his sister come out.
The big dog gazed at the girl he longed for but could not have, his heart filled with rage. 'If I can't have your heart, I'll have your body. Tonight, tonight alone!'
"Fanghua, my dear sister, you should go back to your room and rest. Someone, take the young lady and young master back and serve them well."
"Yes," the male subordinate and the strong-armed maid pulled the two away.
Tu Zhe shouted unwillingly, "Big Dog Tu, are you going to drag everyone in Tujia Fortress to their deaths?"
The name that Tu Da Gou least wanted to hear was something he would have shot right now if it were anyone else.
Looking at his family in the distance, he calmly gazed at He Chen. His hand, gripping the large gun tightly, trembled slightly, revealing his inner excitement—was it from the thought of becoming a groom that night, or something else?
He laughed and said, "Please excuse my foolishness. Children don't understand; they're just kids. How could they know that meat and wine are the true virtues? Look, the support of the crowd is what matters. He's become stupid from all his studying! He can't see this principle. Don't you all agree?!"
With their superior weapons at hand, the men exchanged glances of agreement and chorused, "Yes, sir!"
He Chen nodded, "That's good. You won't be lonely on your journey to the underworld!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the big dog suddenly shouted, "Fire the arrows!"
"Whoosh, whoosh," instantly, the archers under his command made the sound of arrows piercing the air—fast, accurate, and ruthless!
"Haha," the big dog laughed smugly, thinking to himself, "As expected of a young man, he managed to ambush me with just a few words. I'll roast you into meat later! Feed you to the pigs!"
Just as he was feeling smug, He Chen had already rushed to the archer's side in an instant, ignoring the burly man with a sword behind him. He swung his broadsword horizontally, a simple, powerful slash! The sharp blade, the immense force, and the incredible speed—two large heads fell directly to the ground.
The wound was smooth, a clean cut. Two kill points plus 50 points passed by! The people around were instantly stunned, frozen in place, their pants soaked.
Then, without even glancing at the spurting blood, and without a trace of it, with a single slash, he cleaved another person in two. A horizontal slash at the waist, cutting the person in two. Brutal, utterly ruthless! He instantly killed several people, leaving those around no time to react. Terrified by this brutal slaughter, they retreated hastily. Their faces turned pale.
Tu Da Gou shouted instantly, "Attack together! Those who retreat will be killed!" Then, he charged forward with his spear. An inch longer, an inch stronger! Carrying the force of the impact, he thrust directly at He Chen's back.
"Clang!" The bell tolled loudly and incessantly. The spear could not penetrate even an inch.
He Chen didn't even glance at the attack on his back. His steps didn't falter; with the Cloud Wind Step, he arrived in a single stride! Like the relentless pursuit of death! His broadsword continued its horizontal slashes, ruthless and unparalleled!
On the ground lay severed limbs and broken bodies; not a single person was whole.
People rushed forward instantly, but it was too late to retreat. Suddenly, a horizontal slash unleashed a burst of light, creating countless points of illumination.
The swordsmanship was masterful, each strike capable of slicing through a hundred enemies. In an instant, hailstones the size of human heads rained down from the sky. Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the earth was instantly stained crimson.
A trail of killing points passed by.
"You're a devil, you're not human!" The big dog was instantly stunned and terrified!
"You can do whatever you want, but you must have the ability to do so."
The big dog's eyes flashed with madness and ruthlessness! "I'll fight you to the death!" He thrust forward with his thick, bowl-sized spear, then swiftly released it and stabbed it forward. Then, he turned and ran!
One of her finest brocade shoes was lost in the run. She ran while shouting, "Help! Your Majesty, save my life!" "Help! Your Majesty, save my life!"
Suddenly, with a loud clang, the sword struck the large bell, its blade cleaving open and blood gushing forth. Then, a flash of light, and the fine gold-threaded robe was torn in two, instantly stained crimson! Kill Points increased by 450.
Then came screams and cries for help: "Help! Get up! A monster is coming!"
He Chen didn't care. He searched his large dog and found a stack of silver notes. There was no cultivation technique, so he figured the Tu family's cultivation technique wasn't on his person. He found a bottle, opened it, and smelled it. Not bad, it had a pleasant fragrance; his cells wanted to eat it! He swallowed all four pills inside to replenish his blood and energy.
"My lord, my lord, please save the people of Tujia Fortress!" Tu Fanghua, the eldest daughter of the Tujia people who had just been forcibly taken away, rushed over. The sachet at her waist was still swaying.
"Sir, please save the people of Tujia Fort! They are innocent! It was all the work of Tu Dagou and his gang, and it has nothing to do with them!" the girl hurriedly explained.
He Chen looked at the demonic beasts in front of him, wolf demons and earth dog demons, tearing and gnawing at each other!
That has nothing to do with me; I'm just doing what I like.
'My lord, please save the people! Everything in Tujia Fortress is yours. I wonder if you would be willing?'
"Yes, sir, please save these innocent Tujia people! Everything in Tujia Fortress is your reward!" The young girl said resolutely, seeing that the man before her was unmoved.
