384: The bandits were defeated, the Ten Thousand Poison Scorpion Formation was shattered, and they fled madly.
“What a fast Saber!”
“Second Protector, Fifth Protector, Seventh Protector, the three Great Protectors couldn't even withstand a single Saber!”
Behind him, the Great Guardian's heart was shaken. Among the three Great Protectors he had killed, there was a Qiankun Seventh Realm expert, yet he was still instantly killed.
“Could it be a Heaven Rank expert?”
The faces of the other Protectors changed drastically. In the Soul Severing Mountain Range, even the Great Guardian couldn't kill a Qiankun Seventh Realm expert with a single strike. Only the three Chieftains were capable of it.
“Quick, send word to the Chieftains! A powerful enemy has invaded, please ask them to suppress them immediately!”
“Deploy the Myriad Poison Scorpion Formation to slow their advance and await rescue from the Chieftains!”
The remaining seven Great Protectors, realizing the disparity, quickly self-destructed their Dongtian to gain Peak combat power and set up a powerful poison Formation.
The Soul Severing Mountain Range had never experienced such a tragic situation as today, being forced to self-destruct their Dongtian. When the three Chieftains personally arrive, they will surely make them pay.
“My Lord, please allow this subordinate to handle these people!”
Fu Yunxuan said with cupped hands.
Chu Jiang nodded slightly. Fu Yunxuan possessed both the True Phoenix Body and the Calamity Poison Body, two top-tier Physiques, and her combat power was already unrivaled among her peers.
Her strength and Physique were both at the absolute Peak of this Realm.
Coupled with the terrifying Calamity Poison Body, her combat power was already at the Heaven Rank. This Myriad Poison Scorpion Formation was practically providing her with Cultivation energy.
…
At this moment, deep within the Soul Severing Mountain Range, in an underground palace.
Waves of painful moans could be heard.
A demonic young man dressed as a scholar was passionately kissing dozens of respectable women.
“Lord Ghost Face, please spare my younger sister, she’s still young!”
A stunningly beautiful woman cried, her stomach churning at the sight of Ghost Face's rotting, maggot-infested face.
“Heh heh, you've all had husbands already, why pretend to be innocent? It's better for both sisters to come together!”
The Ghost Face Scholar let out a lewd laugh. He loved married women the most; it made it more enjoyable.
Suddenly.
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The door was violently knocked.
“Third Chieftain, a large number of Demon Suppression Guards are attacking the mountain gate! Please come and assist!”
A bandit ran over, shouting urgently.
“Seeking death! Didn't you see this Chieftain is busy?”
“Are the Ten Great Protectors and Elders all dead? Tell them to kill all the invaders!”
The Ghost Face Scholar was extremely displeased. He was in the middle of things, and now he was being asked to pull out and leave. This was simply outrageous.
In the past, there were always people who didn't know their place and tried to clear out the Soul Severing Mountain Range. As a result, not only were they suppressed and killed, but even the forces behind them were massacred.
Such a trivial matter actually dared to disturb him.
“Lord Ghost Face, this subordinate still advises you to take a look. The Protectors seem to be unable to hold on… I heard… I heard several have already been killed, and tens of thousands have died!”
The bandit said trembling. He also knew the Third Chieftain was busy, but if his old self continued to lie in his embrace, the Soul Severing Mountain Range's foundation would soon be lost.
Hearing this, the Ghost Face Scholar instantly deflated. The door was opened, and a cold voice came through: “From the Royal Capital?”
“Yes!”
The bandit replied respectfully.
“You, Chu Jiang, want to use my Soul Severing Mountain Range to establish your authority, to kill a chicken to warn the monkeys, right? Unfortunately, you've chosen the wrong target!”
The Ghost Face Scholar put on his ghost mask, and his aura became particularly cold, his eyes like those of a red demon.
As the largest bandit lair in the Three Prefectures, the Soul Severing Mountain Range had naturally received news of Chu Jiang's arrival in the Three Prefectures.
Chu Jiang was a domineering and reckless individual. His choice of Soul Severing Mountain as his first target clearly showed he regarded them as soft targets.
“Hmph, the Soul Severing Mountain Range isn't a place where you, Chu Jiang, can come and go as you please!”
With that, the Ghost Face Scholar vanished from his spot.
At the same time, the First Chieftain, Ghost Scythe, and the Second Chieftain, Purple-Faced Fiend, also received the distress call simultaneously.
…
In the battlefield.
“Die!”
Fu Yunxuan's purple light streaked across, her body like a phantom, weaving through the Myriad Poison Scorpion Formation. She single-handedly fought the seven Great Protectors and numerous Elders. Wherever her Saber Qi passed, no one could match her.
The Great Guardian, a Qiankun Nine expert, had already self-destructed his nine Dongtian, giving him several times the combat power of a Qiankun Tenth Level expert. Yet, he still dared not clash with her head-on, only daring to hide.
This Myriad Poison Scorpion Formation was known as a top-tier poison Formation capable of refining several Qiankun Tenth Level experts to death. However, it had no effect on this woman; instead, her aura grew even stronger.
“Pfft!”
The Demon Suppression Blade slashed across the sky, and another Protector's head flew off, gushing blood as his body fell from the sky.
“Ah, Third Protector!”
“Chieftains, why haven't you come to reinforce us? If this drags on, we will all perish here today!”
In just a dozen breaths, more than half of the Protectors and Elders had fallen.
“Why hasn't the Third Chieftain arrived yet? He's the closest to here!”
The Great Guardian and the others were on the verge of despair. They couldn't hold on, not even for a moment.
This woman's strength was too great. Heaven and Earth Realm experts were like slightly stronger grasshoppers in her hands, easily crushed.
Even with the Myriad Poison Scorpion Formation deployed, they were still pushed back, suffering heavy losses. It was completely useless. In a short time, four Great Protectors and over twenty Elders had already died.
Only three Protector-level experts remained.
And this woman was merely a subordinate of Chu Jiang. His own strength was probably comparable to the First Chieftain.
In fact, he doubted whether the First Chieftain could even stop her, that remained to be seen.
Just Chu Jiang's female subordinate alone was enough to give the three Chieftains a hard time.
“No, I cannot be buried here. As long as there's life, there's hope!”
The Third Chieftain, Ghost Face Scholar, was a notorious lecherous demon. At this moment, he was probably still dreaming in a Beauty Town and unwilling to get up.
The Fourth Protector and Sixth Protector grew increasingly angry. They were fighting bloody battles here, resisting foreign enemies, on the brink of death. When they thought of the Ghost Face Scholar still enjoying nightly revelries, carefree and happy.
They could no longer hold back.
The two Great Protectors could not suppress the fear in their hearts. In the face of death, everything else was empty talk; only survival was paramount.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two immediately fled, abandoning the battlefield.
“Damn it, you two bastards! This Protector will kill you!”
The remaining Great Guardian was furious. The Myriad Poison Scorpion Formation was already on the verge of collapse, and with these two fleeing, the Formation shattered like a spiderweb.
The crowd was already no match, and without the Formation's enhancement, the situation became even more dire.
Pfft!
The Saber light was dazzling, the Void Realm trembled, and Fu Yunxuan's Demon Suppression Blade, with its purple light, once again cut down a Protector, separating his head from his body.
“Flee!”
Seeing the massive disparity, the bandits realized that these people were beyond their ability to contend with. They were utterly terrified and began to flee in all directions.
Large numbers of bandits fled, but they were intercepted by the Demon Suppression Guards and the Tiger Brave Army, cut down beneath their horses. In an instant, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood formed, with blood flowing like rivers.
An extreme panic spread throughout the entire Soul Severing Mountain Range.
In just the first wave of fighting, the bandits of Soul Severing Mountain were driven to desperation.
The Tiger Brave Army was the imperial guard protecting the Royal Capital. Each one was brave and skilled in battle, capable of fighting several bandits of the same Realm.
The Demon Suppression Guard were the elite troops of the Royal Capital Demon Suppression Division.
Even deploying only a quarter of their strength would be enough to suppress the bandit army. Now, with a full-scale assault, they were even more unstoppable.
“This isn't right, why is this happening? Wasn't it just for show before?”
“This posture now, it looks like they want to completely wipe out the Soul Severing Mountain Range!”
Some bandit leaders who had come from afar to provide support were terrified and sensed something was wrong.
These Demon Suppression Guards were all fearless, clearly coming to take their lives.
Why hadn't the lords above informed them?
