Chapter 103: Put an End to This
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Even though Zhao Neng’s hands had been stained with quite a lot of blood in the past, at this moment, he was also so frightened that he took a few steps back.
“Everyone, gather here.” Under Xiao Jin’s command, the mercenaries and bandits came to his side when they realized that the situation was not right.
“Split up. 10 people in a group. Spread out in different locations in the north, south, east, and west of the courtyard. All the women and children go hide upstairs and block the door securely.”
Bai Shuang and the other women didn’t know what had happened, but they still carried the children and ran upstairs at once when they heard the order.
When they ran up to the second floor and saw a large mass of shadows moving in the dark, they felt their hearts were in their throats.
“Aunt Zhao, quick, come in.” Lin Zhuyu hurried forward and dragged Aunt Zhao, who was frozen in shock, into the house.
Outside the fence, the rustling sound was getting closer and closer, and the people in the courtyard were all on high alert.
…..
Scratch! Scratch! The sound of nails scraping on the wooden fence outside the courtyard rang out and it made people’s hair stand on end.
Number One and the bandit leader climbed up the courtyard fence to check the situation outside. They were also dumbstruck by the scene in front of them.
Even though they had been traveling extensively for so many years and had seen all kinds of intense battle scenes, they were still shocked by the venomous bug-infected people in front of them who were like soldiers from the netherworld.
“They’re coming! They’re coming!”
With a loud yell, Number One grabbed the long bamboo pole in his hand and began hitting the venomous bug-infected people who were trying to climb up the fence.
However, the venomous bug-infected people were not afraid of pain at all. No matter how much they were beaten, they would get up immediately and continue to climb up.
When they saw more and more venomous bug-infected people climbing up the wall, Jiang Yang and the others didn’t dare to stop for even a moment.
In the darkness, a figure stood at a high place not far away. He held a bone flute in his hand, and he was playing some peculiar music on the bone flute.
He looked at the increasing number of venomous bug-infected people with his insidious eyes, and an excited and bloodthirsty smile hovered on his face.
“My babies, kill to your heart’s content. Hahahahaha!”
“If the people in front are tired, switch with the people behind.” At some point, Xiao Jin had also jumped onto the fence. He gripped a large saber tightly in his hand and skillfully slew the venomous bug-infected people who tried to climb up.
Jiang Yang and the others had also climbed up the fence and kept changing shifts to prevent the people at the top from being exhausted. However, despite doing this, if they continued fighting like this, they would never see the end of the fight.
There were simply too many venomous bug-infected people, much more than they had imagined!
Meanwhile, Su Ying was sprinting madly down the mountain. However, no matter how fast she ran, it would still take her quite some time to reach the foot of the mountain.
She didn’t dare to stop at all and kept dashing toward her home. When she saw the wooden building that her group had built with their own hands, she realized that the compound of the wooden building was completely surrounded by venomous bug-infected people.
They swarmed up like ants that had seen sugar, almost surrounding the entire courtyard so densely that not even a drop of water could trickle through!
Su Ying took out a light-beam saber and a fire grenade and tossed the grenade at the mass of venomous bug-infected people.
Boom! A loud explosion erupted, and the venomous bug-infected people were blown to smithereens.
Su Ying held the light-beam saber in her hand and roared furiously as she charged into the crowd of venomous bug-infected people. Today, she would put an end to this!
The explosion from the fire grenade alarmed the people in the courtyard. Xiao Jin, who was sitting on top of the fence, saw from a distance a figure flashing with green light frantically slaying the venomous bug-infected people.
“Su Ying!”
Xiao Jin’s voice wasn’t loud, but Su Ying was able to catch his location immediately.
She raised her head and saw Xiao Jin sitting on top of the fence like an executioner. With every raise of his hand and swing of his saber, a bloody head would drop down.
Su Ying looked at the endless mass of venomous bug-infected people which didn’t seem to diminish in numbers no matter how many she killed. If this continued, she didn’t know how many fire grenades she would have to use before she could wipe all of them out.
Su Ying suddenly turned around and rushed out of the crowd of venomous bug-infected people. She calmed herself down gradually and observed her surroundings.
These venomous bug-infected people must be controlled by someone. To capture the bandits, she had to capture the leader first. As long as she found the person who was controlling them in the dark, her people would not have to spend so much effort.
After Su Ying calmed down, she heard a peculiar flute sound. Even though it was covered by the noise of rowdy fighting, she could still hear it.
Su Ying followed the sound and slowly left the venomous bug-infected people’s encirclement. She started to approach the other side of the house.
The closer she got, the louder the flute sound became. Su Ying raised her head and saw a black figure standing on the roof of the wooden building next to theirs.
Su Ying’s eyes narrowed. She took out the tranquilizer gun and aimed it at the figure.
Just when she shot the tranquilizer dart, a wooden figure quickly dashed in front of the black figure in a flash and blocked the tranquilizer dart.
Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes darkened, and she sprinted to the wooden building and leaped into the house compound.
The figure on the roof saw Su Ying running over and got a fright. Then, the music of the bone flute changed, and the venomous bug-infected people who were still heading toward Xiao Jin and the others turned around and walked toward Su Ying.
Su Ying wanted to go upstairs to capture that black figure, but she was stopped by a hunchbacked old woman.
She chuckled and looked at Su Ying. “Young lady, didn’t your mother teach you not to enter other people’s houses recklessly? It can be dangerous, you know.”
Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes turned chilly. “It has nothing to do with me if it’s dangerous for you guys.”
Su Ying swung the light-beam saber in her hand and stabbed it at the old woman. A wicked smile appeared in the old woman’s eyes. As the light-beam saber was about to pierce through her heart, she didn’t dodge at all.
Slash! The light-beam saber pierced through the old woman’s heart.
Su Ying frowned deeply as she looked closely. The light-beam saber had pierced a wooden puppet.
“Young lady, you’ve broken my son’s wooden puppet. He’ll be angry.” The old woman had appeared behind Su Ying without warning.
This was an illusion skill!
Su Ying’s light-beam saber stabbed at the old woman again.
This time, it was still the wooden puppet that had its head cut off.
“Hehehehe! How dare you show off such half-assed tricks in front of Old Madam Xue. Hehehehe!”
Su Ying suddenly stopped and looked at Old Madam Xue standing not far away. She closed her eyes calmly and slowed her breathing.
Gradually, she heard the changing sound of the wind in her ear.
At this moment, Old Madam Xue’s expression changed. Her two hands turned into claws, and her sharp nails went clawing at Su Ying.
Su Ying didn’t move. Instead, she stood still, trying to figure out where Old Madam Xue was.
Just as Old Madam Xue was about to pierce through her heart, the light-beam saber in Su Ying’s hand flashed out and sliced the back of Old Madam Xue’s hand.
“Mother!” With a furious roar, a burly man suddenly burst out of the house. He was still holding a wooden puppet in his hand.
When the wooden puppet reached Su Ying, it seemed to have been injected with a soul. It stabbed at Su Ying madly with the wooden spear in its hand.
Su Ying’s light-beam saber swung and chopped off the wooden puppet’s two arms.
At this moment, Madam Sun was sitting on the bed in another room. Suddenly both her arms dropped off.
Wang Lang’s dull expression switched to shock. “Mother! Mother, what’s wrong?”
Before he could finish his sentence, Madam Sun’s head suddenly dropped off her neck and rolled to Wang Furong’s feet. When Wang Furong lowered her head and met Madam Sun’s unfocused eyes, she was so terrified she screamed out loud.
“Help! Help!”
