In the Demon Suppression Division: Crimson Words Nurture the Blade, Slaying Demons to Prove the Dao
Chapter 29: The Demon Slayer Has Arrived!
After a short rest, Jiao Yu gave the order, and the team immediately assembled.
The group set off under the cover of night.
Guided by the scouts, they avoided the horde of monsters ahead and ventured into the jungle toward Chenjia Village.
After a half-hour march, the team finally arrived at Chenjia Village.
But what they saw before them silenced everyone.
"Boss, we're late..."
Hu Murong leaned closer to Jiao Yu and whispered.
Even after three months of fierce fighting and having witnessed countless life-and-death situations,
The tragic state of Chenjia Village was too much for Hu Murong to bear.
The trunk of the old locust tree at the village entrance was splattered with dark red blood, and a half-corpse lay piled at the base of the tree, its ribs exposed and stark white.
Several gnawed leg bones lay scattered on the open ground nearby, with dents left by wolf teeth at the broken ends.
The wind blew in from the north, carrying a fishy smell mixed with the rusty odor, making one's throat tighten.
No one spoke, only the sound of dripping water coming from some unknown room, falling into the pool of blood, one drop after another.
"Boss, look!"
Wei Xuanfeng had sharp eyes and spotted the open space to the west of the village at a glance.
The ground was littered with the corpses of more than a dozen Xuanlan wolf demons.
Some were pinned to tree trunks by arrows, each arrow hitting their eye sockets.
Some of their chest cavities were sunken in, shattered by being punched repeatedly...
"Search! Rescue anyone you find, kill any wolves!" After giving the order, Jiao Yu jogged over, picked up an arrow, and examined it closely. "It's one of ours!"
"Hmm, boss, the number of bodies isn't right either. There are footprints over there indicating people have gone up the mountain. I think the villagers of Chenjia Village have all moved up the mountain. But..." Wei Xuanfeng said calmly.
"Our people haven't been patrolling the mountains around Chenjia Village these past few days, so I'm not sure who helped these villagers evacuate."
Within Kangcheng, besides the Demon Suppression Division, there are indeed a few other forces capable of confronting the demon race.
For example, those martial arts schools, or those reclusive masters in the city.
"No matter who it is, as long as they fight against the demon race, they are allies!"
Although Jiao Yu said this, he looked thoughtfully at the corpses of the wolf demons.
Just then, a wolf howl suddenly came from the back mountain.
"Boss, what do you mean?" Wei Xuanfeng asked Jiao Yu.
"Looks like these wolves are going to wipe out Chenjia Village, damn it!" Jiao Yu turned around and shouted, "Stop searching! Line up!"
At his command, everyone immediately assembled.
"Wei Xuanfeng, raise the flag!"
Wow!
The banner of the Demon Suppression Division was suddenly unfurled in the night wind, red with black characters on the background, "Suppress" on the front and "Demon" on the back. Wei Xuanfeng held the banner with one hand and stood under the red banner.
"Fox Murong, Wen Shihan, Protector of the Banner!"
"yes!"
Wen Shihan stood on his left wing, holding a meteor hammer, while Hu Murong stood on his right wing, bow drawn and arrow nocked.
Seeing the red flag fluttering in the wind, Jiao Yu looked around at everyone.
"Comrades! The people in the mountains have been attacked by a horde of demons. I must lead you to slay the demons and save them!"
Her voice, amplified by her inner strength, was deafening.
"Many people will die before the sun rises!"
"Please do not be afraid, do not back down!"
Behind you lie the lights of countless homes!
"Gentlemen, follow the red flag closely, grip your embroidered spring blades tightly, and fight to the death!"
Even if the night is long and darkness will not break, I will risk my life to light the lamp!
Upon hearing this, Jiao Yu instantly ignited the emotions of the soldiers.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Good lad, come with me!"
Seeing the team's high morale, Jiao Yu immediately drew his Embroidered Spring Blade and led everyone to charge up the mountain.
Wei Xuanfeng held the military flag, with Wen Shihan and Hu Murong flanking him on either side.
The entire group resembled a black dragon, moving through the mountains and forests.
"Boss, there's a pack of wolves ahead!"
Because of his archery skills, Hu Murong has the best eyesight.
They spotted the Xuanlan Wolf Demon in the distance at a glance.
"Don't stop! Charge!"
……
Qi Sha leaned against a rock about half a person's height, his left arm hanging down, blood dripping from his fingertips.
Seven wolf carcasses lay on the open ground in front of him, all killed by being punched repeatedly, their skulls caved in, their brains mixed with blood spilling all over the ground.
But then a pack of wolves emerged from the darkness, their countless green eyes darting among the rocks.
Embroidery squatted in the middle of the crowd, the bowstring was broken, and there were only seven arrows left in the quiver.
The villagers formed a circle, with the elderly and children squeezed in the innermost part, while the young men stood on the outside, clutching hoes, machetes, and carrying poles; even a fire poker was considered a weapon.
This is a cliff platform on the back mountain of Chenjia Village, surrounded by steep cliffs on three sides, with only a narrow path leading up from the south.
Normally, with their peak Martial Master cultivation, they would have been more than capable of holding this line of defense!
Even if these wolves can climb up the cliff.
Can……
They ultimately underestimated the toxicity of the Earth Immortal Spring Lotus, even though it was hidden in a jade box...
"To the right!"
Qi Sha roared and launched himself forward, punching the wolf's head that had just climbed up the cliff.
The wolf didn't even have time to howl before its skull shattered, and its body slid down the cliff face, bringing with it a shower of rubble.
Almost simultaneously, Xiuhua turned to the left wing, swung the broken bow horizontally, and struck the nose of a wolf demon that had pounced in. The beast staggered back in pain and was pinned to the ground by two villagers with hoes.
This is the seventh time tonight.
Each time they come from a different direction, in groups of three or five, take a bite and retreat, then come from a different direction again.
Seven Kill and Embroidery guarded two ends, one attacking while the other bit, and when one was driven away, the other would sneak up again.
Two hours ago we could hold on, half an hour ago we started to struggle, and now...
Qi Sha was panting like a bellows, and Xiu Hua's hand holding the broken bow was trembling.
Both of them knew that the wolf pack was wearing them down.
"Do you still have energy?" Xiuhua asked, panting.
Qi Sha grinned, his teeth glistening with blood: "What, want it again?"
Embroidery was too weak to scold him.
The wolf pack has moved again...
This time they came from the narrow road in front, and the six wolf demons rushed up side by side at an extremely fast speed.
As Qi Sha was about to attack, Xiu Hua grabbed him.
"Don't try to be a hero!"
She went to meet them herself, holding the broken bow in her left hand and drawing a dagger from her boot with her right...
That was her last weapon.
Six wolf demons pounced.
Embroidery dodged the first attack, a dagger plunged into the neck of the second, the claws of the third tore the fabric of her lower back, and the fourth was choked in the mouth by a broken bow, its jaw crushed by a knee.
The fifth and sixth were smashed from the side by Qi Sha, one with a collapsed chest cavity and the other with a broken spine.
"Cough cough cough..."
Upon seeing Qi Sha, Xiu Hua immediately knelt on the ground and coughed violently.
"Damn it, even a tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs."
Upon seeing this, Qi Sha immediately helped Xiu Hua up.
I never imagined that I, a dignified peak Martial Master, would end up dying at the hands of a pack of wolf demon servants.
I'm not reconciled!!!
The wolves did not rush forward; they stopped a few steps away, their green eyes fixed on the two.
"Seventh Brother..." Xiuhua's voice was weak, "I knew I shouldn't have listened to you, I had to linger for three more days... If we had waited until Lord Yang left, we would have gone back to the Demon Suppression Division, instead of..."
Qi Sha blushed and scratched his head.
"Didn't you say you liked being in the fields..."
"Are you kidding me? Saying such nonsense at a time like this is unbelievable!"
Having seen life and death many times, the two were still able to talk and laugh together.
But the people behind them, seeing the two injured again, were filled with despair.
The sobbing started intermittently, gradually grew louder, and finally, the entire village, young and old, wailed and wept…
Just then, a commotion inexplicably began to break out behind the wolf pack.
This situation immediately attracted the attention of many villagers who were watching.
Against the hazy horizon, a red dot drew ever closer.
The village chief of Chenjia Village stood on a stone, craning his neck so he could see further.
Gradually, he saw it clearly.
That red dot is a red flag!
"The demon slayer has arrived..." he murmured.
"The demon slayer is here!!!" he roared!
