472 The Killing Field 2

/*unedited*/

Hundreds of black smoke are rising up to the air as many houses and establishments are burning throughout the entire city. With many people dead and suffering all over the place and the sound of crying and wailing is a constant reminder that the city is facing a great crisis.

In this dangerous situation, a small group of people are currently rus.h.i.+ng at the top of the roofs at a steady pace. Every now and then a silver flash would appear and a mercenary would fall after.

s.h.i.+n Jiao didn't hesitate to kill those Lao clan mercenaries as he pa.s.ses by. He knew that if he disregards one, a person or a group of people would suffer. Hence the more he kills the better the situation would be.

Meanwhile, the mercenaries who have received the bad news that they are being hunted one by one are already scrambling to a safe house or hiding somewhere. Using the short-range communication bead then can communicate what is happening in every team inside the city.

The bad news started in one of the main gates of the city when they lost communication with the hundreds of men in that place. And when they sent a scout to observe the situation, they encountered a group of students and were eliminated.

And after that, they receive news that some of their elite infant soul realm cultivators were killed while trying to back up the army taking over the portal area.

These successive mishaps have already spread throughout the mercenary group hence they are all cautious at this moment.

But however, cautious they are they did not expect that they would be facing a nascent realm cultivator with a lot of different weapons at his disposal.

Inside a two-story building, 20 odd mercenaries are currently hiding.

"What do you think is happening outside?"

"I don't know, I think there is a strong cultivator from the other clans who might have escaped and is trying to be a hero…"

"Haha… what a stupid b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Once we locate that person we should transmit that person's location to the head… they will send a nascent realm cultivator to face that guy."

"Are you stupid? We only have two nascent realms with us right now… the master of the clan and that mysterious person with him."

"Then, what should we do?"

"I don't know… I didn't have my fill yet… I wanted to kill some more… I wanted to get this pent up urge inside my body…"

"Me too… Let's go out… I will fight it out with that person. I will kill that guy if I see him."

The mercenaries are discussing while blood l.u.s.t are exuding in their bodies.

The reason for this is the pill they took before the fighting starts. It's called a berserk pill. Before every mission, the mercenaries would carry this pill, and it would make them brave enough to face anything and would not hesitate to do anything just to curve the blood l.u.s.t in their bodies.

Suddenly!

Cras.h.!.+ Plunk!!!

A small circular object broke the gla.s.s of the house and made everyone a bit surprised. However, nothing happened after making them all turn their eyes at the object.

"Is that a…"

Kaboom!!!

The whole building was blasted to smithereens along with the severed body parts of the people inside it. Their figures were burnt and their expression had a look of disbelief and horror in them.

The people following s.h.i.+n Jiao have their mouths wide agape as they did not know what is happening right now.

"How can a stone have such strong explosive power?"

"Those stones are very scary…"

"…"

The young men in white began to discuss while running behind after seeing the explosions coming from the houses and buildings where s.h.i.+n Jiao threw the grenades at.

Not long later after a few explosions and silver flashes, the group has reached the place where a large group of mercenaries are facing against a large group of soldiers from the city.

The battleground is right in front of them and the confrontation between the two groups has already escalated to where many have died on both sides.

s.h.i.+n Jiao can feel the smell of blood rising through the air as soldiers and mercenaries are dying on the streets. However, in this confrontation, the situation of the people from the city council army looks really bad. The berserk look on the mercenaries is truly scary and their growling and war cry would make a normal person shudder and even wet himself.

And even those cultivators felt that they are not facing a normal human but an army of beasts.

"Captain, this is dangerous, what can our small group do in this situation?" a young man asked with a hint of fear in his tone.

"Are you afraid? Then don't come with us. Stay hidden." Another one from behind jeered.

"Shut up! I will fight… I… I just don't want to waste my efforts in this battle."

"That's fine… you guys can just stay in this place and fire long-range spells. And take this… it can protect you somehow." s.h.i.+n Jiao said as he took out a bunch of s.h.i.+elds from his ring.

When the people saw this, they felt a bit confused. This is because they already have their own s.h.i.+elds, why would they need another one. Plus some of them are sword cultivators; they are not used to using s.h.i.+elds like an ordinary cultivator soldier.

"I'm off! You guys take care of yourselves." s.h.i.+n Jiao said as he suddenly dove down to the ground.

s.h.i.+n Jiao immediately landed behind a group of rus.h.i.+ng mercenaries and with a swing of his blade decapitated the 5 of them with one casual swing.

"d.a.m.n, that guy is strong."

"I think he is already a late-stage nascent realm cultivator…"

"Pfft… if he is a late-stage nascent realm, he would not use normal attacks like that. Nascent realms can command winds and the skies; they can make the ground shake and tremble. They are already considered as a demi-G.o.d. That guy is not yet on that level."

"I guess he is still in the infant soul realm then…"

The young people along with the captain of the group stood as they watch s.h.i.+n Jiao once again act like a G.o.d of death on the battlefield.

Suddenly, s.h.i.+n Jiao saw two infant soul realm cultivators rus.h.i.+ng towards him.

"So you should be the one who caused our group to face death. We are here to finish you."

"Die insolent cur!" shouted the two middle-aged men as they suddenly attacked s.h.i.+n Jiao simultaneously.

Upon seeing the two rus.h.i.+ng figures rus.h.i.+ng towards him with the speed of lightning, s.h.i.+n Jiao showed a smirk on his face.

"It has been long since I have used some of my skills. I think I might have turned rusty in using them…" s.h.i.+n Jiao thought as he dodges their unending barrage of sword attacks.

Using shadow steps, s.h.i.+n Jiao easily maneuver himself away from the two who suddenly found themselves attacking an after image. Suddenly they felt an ominous feeling in their hearts and as the two wanted to jump away from s.h.i.+n Jiao who is already standing behind them.

He is currently holding his katana on his waist as he bends his body in a quick slash position with his right hand open ready to grab the hilt of the black sword.

Then he muttered.

"Moons.h.i.+ne cut!"

Before the two can move their bodies, a few silver lights appear and s.h.i.+n Jiao's body seems to have teleported forward a few meters away from the two.

Then within 50 meters the mercenaries suddenly stop moving as it time has stopped.

s.h.i.+n Jiao has the blade katana blade lifted high up in the air and with a swing rid the black sword of the blood as he regained his normal standing position.

Suddenly all the mercenaries in the 50-meter radius fell to the ground with their bodies sliced in half in many different places.

Moons.h.i.+ne cut is one of the skills that s.h.i.+n Jiao learned from a j.a.panese master when he visited the country. He accidentally saw that master on his date with s.h.i.+ Anne Li in that country. And that is also the reason why he favors katana than normal double edge Chinese or western swords.

The battlefield suddenly seems to have a sudden pause when the mercenaries saw what happened. They can see their companions falling to the ground with their bodies hacked into pieces. This gruesome scene made some of the youths watching almost vomit.

Even their captain had an ugly look on his face. Who would have thought that the young man they were with is so strong and frightening that he was able to handle that huge amount of people in just one move?

"Graahh! He killed our brothers! Attack him!" shouted the rest of the mercenaries who were angered at this scene.

Instead of fear their anger booted the drug inside their bodies and turned more berserk that their eyes are all red. Everyone is already out for blood in this war and now they wanted more.

However, at the center of this army a group of people standing in an open war carriage being pulled by 6 huge war Groogs (A hornless bull-like beast), is looking at this scene. Among them is a young woman wearing her signature black robe which hugs her pet.i.te body tightly.

The young woman is looking at the scene with deep fear in her eyes as she mutters while s.h.i.+vering.

"It's him… it's actually him… How come he is here? We... we must run... no, we must escape." she said as she stood up wanting to get away from this battle as fast as she could.

The trauma that the young woman had experienced when entering the city was still fresh in her memories.
