Doehring looked at the corpses on the ground. Broken limbs and blood stained the ground. Some of the corpses were still bleeding. The scene was bloody. Doehring almost wanted to vomit. He had never seen such a bloody battle in decades. No, it could be said to be a one-sided massacre, a bloody massacre, and the executioner holding this sword was actually a twelve-year-old child. Delin looked at Ling Tian, at this frail and weak body. He couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes, but the blood on Ling Tian's body, the sword dripping with blood, and the endless killing intent all told him that this was reality.
'Sigh, I wonder if bringing him out of that forest was the right decision,' thought Doehring. Thinking back to the time when he fought against the pack of wolves with Ling Tian, Ling Tian was also the same. It seemed that in his eyes, humans were no different from wild beasts. Anyone who wanted to kill him or anger him would end up like this. Perhaps he was a magical beast and did not have the thoughts, emotions, or rationality of a human. He was living on instinct, like a wild beast.
"Old man, how are you?" Ling Tian turned around and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine! These old bones would not die for the time being.”Looking at Ling Tian who was using a high-grade healing technique to heal himself, although his killing intent was still as thick as before, the concern and worry that shot out from his beast-like eyes made Delin feel a little warm.
"This is all I can do. He could stop the bleeding for the time being, but it would take some time for the wound to heal.”Ling Tian replied calmly.
"That's good. The sky is getting dark. Let's hurry up.”Delin didn't want to stay in this place any longer.
"Alright! Can you still ride a horse?"
"It's alright. A martial arts practitioner would ride a horse all his life, so this injury wouldn't affect my riding. Let's go!" The two horses galloped towards the capital of the Fenghuo Empire.
"Coles, is what you said true?”In a dark room, a wrinkled, white-haired old man stared at the man in black warrior robes and asked.
"I saw it with my own eyes. Honorable Great Elder, I can swear to God.”Kors said firmly.
The Great Elder nodded and turned to the other five."What do the five elders think?"
"Our organization hasn't had any powerful and talented young men in a long time. This young man named Ling Tian was able to wipe out the entire Ghost Grand Bandit Gang single-handedly.”The Third Elder continued. The rest of the people also nodded their heads. It seemed like they were also very interested in Ling Tian.
"Coles, who is the old man with him?”
"Sixth Elder, it's Dinkel from the Cole family of the Wind and Fire Empire.”
"Oh, I see. Lys, bring me his information."
"Yes." The woman called Lys responded and left.
Fifteen minutes later, a complete set of information was delivered to the First Elder.
Drinkel, the current patriarch of the Cole family.
[Age: 62]
He became a Silver Warrior at the age of 27 and had yet to make a breakthrough. When he was 40, he took over the Cole family but refused to become a duke. His younger brother, Desker, took over the position and was now the deputy dean of the Heavenly Star Academy. In order to prepare a gift for his granddaughter Lise's coming of age ceremony, he had set off to the Magical Beast Forest half a month ago to capture Fire Magical Beasts.
"Where's the latest information? I mean, what happened after he entered the Magical Beast Forest?”The First Elder said sternly.
"Please forgive me, First Elder. That's all the information.”Lys quickly knelt down and said in fear.
"Investigate immediately! Especially that youth he brought out called Ling Tian. I want to know everything about him.”
"Yes, sir! This subordinate will do it immediately!"
"You may leave!" The Great Elder waved his hand, and Lys immediately retreated.
The Great Elder closed his eyes and pondered for a moment before saying to Coles,"Kors, immediately spread the news that the Ghost Grand Bandit Gang was exterminated by a young man. Remember, it's a young man, and there's no one else around him. Also, keep an eye on Ling Tian, but don't let him notice your existence.”
"Yes, I am. This subordinate will do it now!" Kors replied and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" The Great Elder seemed to have thought of something and called out to Coles," Go to the armory and take out the Fury Slash Sword. Find a suitable opportunity to give it to Lingtian.”
"Sword of Fury? Why?" Coles was shocked and could not help but ask why. He immediately realized his stupidity. Looking at the cold gaze of the Great Elder, he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy." I'll do it now. Please spare my life."”
"Humph! I hope there won't be a next time. You may leave!" The Great Elder slowly closed his eyes. Kors hurriedly went out and gently closed the door, only to realize that he was already covered in cold sweat.
"Brother, any news recently?”
"You haven't heard? Do you know the Ghost Grand Bandit Gang?"
"I know! It was the bandit group that ranked seventh on the bandit group list. They often killed people and robbed goods. Two days ago, they even killed the entire Flame Mercenary Group.”
"Do you know that this bandit gang is no longer in existence?”
"What is it? Exiled?"
"Yes, I am. There were rumors everywhere that this bandit gang had been completely wiped out, including the deaths of their two leaders, the Ghost and Grand Wood.”
"The two of them are dead too! Who did it? Could it be that the three S-rank mercenary groups had made their move?”
"I'm not too sure about the specifics.”
"I know!" Another person interrupted.
"Really? Brother, looking at your clothes, you belong to the Eternal Sea Mercenary Group. Come over and have a few drinks.”
"Alright, I'll do it. It's rare for you to be so enthusiastic, brother. I'll come over now.”The man from the Eternal Sea Mercenary Group sat over and lowered his voice, pretending to be mysterious as he said,"I heard that it was done by a twelve-year-old youth.”
"What is it? A twelve-year-old youth made it?" The two people who were chatting earlier shouted almost at the same time.
This shout immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people, as if they wanted to hear what was going on. Everyone in the tavern looked at this man from the Eternal Sea Mercenary Group. The man seemed to have noticed the gazes around him and was also a little proud. He smoothed his throat and took a sip of wine. Then, he raised his voice and continued,
"It was indeed killed by a twelve-year-old youth. One of my brothers 'neighbors is a guard of Mercenary City. He went to the scene last night and told my brothers this morning. " Do you know, according to my brother, when his neighbor arrived at the scene and saw the broken limbs, blood flowing like a river, and extreme blood, he kept vomiting. Even when he returned home and saw red things, he kept vomiting.”
"Is it really that bloody?"
"Is there a need to lie to you? The neighbor said that the corpse's pupils had dilated several times, as if he had seen an extremely terrifying scene. Otherwise, he wouldn't have died with such an expression. Moreover, from the scene of the thief's death, he also suspected that it wasn't done by a human, but by a beast.”
"In that case, how do you know that it was another twelve year old youth who killed him?”asked the person sitting next to him.
The man from the Eternal Sea Mercenary Group took a sip of wine and was very satisfied with the effect. It seemed that he had made a big splash today." My brother asked his neighbor the same thing. The neighbor said that after the wild beasts killed people, they left behind sharp claw marks. The corpses of these bandits were cut open by someone else with a sword, so it was obvious that they were killed by people.”
"This person is so cruel. He actually tore people into pieces.”
"Yeah, how can there be such a cruel person!”
"Everyone, don't make a ruckus. Let's listen to this brother first. How do we know that it was a twelve year old youth who killed him?”
"En en…my brother's neighbor also heard about it from someone. The exact source of the news is unclear, but the neighbor said that the dozens of mercenaries they went to believe it. They saw the small footprints left by the youth, and from the palm wounds on some of the corpses, they could see that the size of the hand was consistent with that of a twelve year old youth.”
"I see. I think it's 80% true."
" Yeah!"
" Yeah!"
"Do you know the strength of that young man?”He took a sip of wine and continued," Tsk tsk…Twelve years old, and you've actually reached the Silver Rank.”
"What is it? Twelve years old, Silver rank?"
"That's too exaggerated. My son became an intermediate warrior at the age of twelve. The teacher even praised him for his future prospects and his talent in martial arts.”
"Yeah, it's hard to believe. He's really a genius.”
"Actually, that's true. Otherwise, how could he have killed Grand Wood and Ghost from the Grand Ghost Bandit Gang? The two of them are Silver Rank powerhouses.”
There was another round of discussion.
The man from the Eternal Sea Mercenary Group had been in the limelight for a long time, and he had also drunk free wine. He looked at the discussion scene below and was very proud. He thought that he had enjoyed himself for once in his life. He really had to thank that young man.
