In the dense bushes outside the cave, under the reflection of the sunlight, countless sharp cold lights were faintly discernible. Behind a big tree, a figure dressed in iron armor and dressed like a general stood straight with his hands behind his back. His eyes were fixed on the direction of the cave.
At this moment, a soldier quietly walked up to him and whispered,""General, His Excellency has ordered us to load the crossbow!”
The armored general pondered for a moment and waved his hand to dismiss the soldiers. He stood there alone, his originally expressionless face showing a trace of hesitation and conflict. The huge benefits of capturing him alive, the temptation of promotion, and the orders from his superiors made him not know what to do.
In the end, the greed in his heart made the general make the final choice!
Taking a deep breath, he calmed his heart and shouted at the cave,"Sword Saint Ge Nia, you've been surrounded by the Empire's armored soldiers. No matter how powerful your martial arts are, you won't be able to do anything. If you surrender now, I can spare your life!”
The man in the bamboo hat, who was slowly retreating, heard the intermittent voice in his ears. His body paused, and then he retreated even faster. At the same time, he continuously cursed in his heart,"Damn it, you actually ruined my plan. This brat doesn't want to conspire with me. I think they've been fooled by Great Qin's might. Damn it!”In the blink of an eye, the bamboo hat man disappeared into the forest.
Inside the cave, Ge Nia's eyes lit up when he heard the voice. With a flash of white light, the scene that had appeared in front of Ye Xing a few days ago appeared once again. He saw the light disappear outside the cave, and at the same time, there were screams, clashing sounds, and shouts.
At the same time as the chaos, Ge Nia's figure disappeared from the cave. Ye Xing only saw a white light flash before Ge Nia's figure disappeared, and in the next moment, more screams and chaos rang out. At the same time, there were also shouts of "No retreat!"
The noise outside the cave made Tianming, who had never experienced such a scene, a little afraid. His body was slightly trembling. Ye Xing was also shocked by the screams outside. It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid, but he still endured it and did not show it.
However, Ye Xing's attention soon shifted away from fear. Blood, countless blood, the pungent smell of blood constantly stimulated Ye Xing's sense of smell. His vampire instinct made Ye Xing feel rather uncomfortable. His throat felt dry and itchy, as if there were countless ants crawling around, making him want to drink something.
Ye Xing's eyes were slightly red, and it took a great deal of willpower to barely control himself.
He kept swallowing his saliva, but it did not alleviate the temptation of blood at all. Instead, it became more and more intense.
Ye Xing knew that he couldn't go on like this. He listened carefully to the movements outside the cave and found that other than the wind, there were only screams and shouts that were getting farther and farther away. There was no sound in front of him.
Although he might encounter some danger if he went out now, he was afraid that if he didn't go out, his bestial nature would erupt in such an environment. If he lost his mind and caused Tianming to do something bad, he would definitely cry to death.
"Tianming, wait for me here. I'll go out and see if I can help uncle!”Ye Xing did not notice that his voice was unusually dry and hoarse.
When Tianming heard Ye Xing's voice, he realized Ye Xing's abnormality. He couldn't care less about his fear and was about to speak. However, before he could speak, Ye Xing's figure flashed and quickly ran out of the cave. Tianming was stunned for a moment. He couldn't care less about anything else and quickly chased after him.
When Tianming chased Ye Xing out of the cave, the scene in front of him made this inexperienced child freeze in place. His face was filled with fear, his hands and feet trembled, and his feet went soft as he fell to the ground.
Ye Xing, who had also stopped in front of Tianming, looked back when he heard the voice. His blood-red eyes were filled with a little gold as he looked at Mou Zi, who was full of fear. Tianming was shocked by the strange look in Ye Xing's eyes, and his voice carried some sobs.
"Ye…Ye…Ye Xing, you…you…what happened to you? You…Don't…Don't scare me!”
Tianming's shout made Ye Xing regain a trace of clarity. He shook his head at the terrified Tianming, indicating that he was fine.
He turned his head and looked at the scene in front of him again. He took a deep breath of the delicious and bloody air. The redness in his eyes intensified. He shook his head to make himself sober again, trying his best to control his sharp teeth that were about to pop out.
Corpses were strewn all over the place, their faces filled with terror. Fresh blood continued to soak the ground. The beautiful red and the cold black intertwined. The scene in front of him should have made him feel fear, but there was no fear in the depths of Ye Xing's heart. There was only infatuation with that bright red!
What a beautiful red! What an intoxicating fragrance! This was such a beautiful scene in the world! I want it, they belong to me!
"Ye Xing, what are you doing?" Suddenly, a voice filled with horror entered Ye Xing's mind, allowing him to regain a trace of clarity. Then, Ye Xing discovered that he had unknowingly approached a blood-red armor.
Ye Xing's finger was less than half a finger away from the blood. He woke up in time and grabbed a black object beside the corpse. The cold touch and the texture of the wood made Ye Xing sober up a little. He tried his best to suppress the bloodthirsty desire in the depths of his heart. His golden pupils looked at the object in his hand.
Although he couldn't name it, Ye Xing knew that the thing in his hand should be a crossbow. He tried his best to keep his consciousness clear, but the hot blood in front of him kept provoking Ye Xing's instincts.
Ye Xing knew that if this continued, he would lose consciousness again, so he decisively grabbed the crossbow with his right hand and the two barrels of crossbow arrows and the ordinary iron sword that had not been unsheathed in time with his left hand. He forced a hoarse smile and said,
"Idiot, of course you have to have a weapon to help someone. I won't waste time with you. I'll go find Uncle first.”
Without waiting for Tianming to reply, Ye Xing spread his huge golden bat wings, and a gust of wind surged out from under his flapping wings. In the next moment, Ye Xing flew higher and higher into the sky.
The terrified Tianming subconsciously looked around and saw the terrified corpses. He shouted and chased after Ye Xing.
The cold and humid air in the sky made Ye Xing's condition better. Without the stimulation of fresh blood, Ye Xing's body's instincts gradually subsided, and his rationality returned to his brain.
Ye Xing exhaled with lingering fear. For some reason, he did not feel a trace of fear in his heart when he first saw the scene of corpses all over the place. There was only excitement and desire, and a touch of faint regret. Ye Xing was really shocked when he recalled that strange state of mind just now.
He shook his head and stopped letting his thoughts run wild. He tightened his grip on the weapon in his hand. Only then did Ye Xing have the time to carefully observe the weapon he had stolen. The Qin army's standard iron swords and crossbows. The iron swords weren't much to look at, but the crossbows made Ye Xing's eyes light up.
The ballista bolts combined with his aerial advantage brought about terrifying damage. However, what Ye Xing regretted was that there were too few crossbow bolts. There were ten crossbow bolts in each quiver. If he was unwilling to use them, he estimated that they would not last long.
At this moment, Ye Xing vaguely heard someone calling him. He subconsciously looked down and saw Tianming, who was panting and shouting non-stop. Tianming was in a rather sorry state now. There were many leaves stuck to his head and clothes, and there were several holes in his clothes.
Sticking out his tongue, Ye Xing lowered his flying speed and altitude. Looking at the miserable Tianming, he shouted,""Didn't I tell you to wait there? Why did you catch up?"
Ye Xing's words made Tian Ming subconsciously recall the corpses and the ground that was dyed red. He shivered and almost knocked into a tree.
Although he was very afraid in his heart, the youth's stubbornness made Tianming stubbornly say,"I was worried about you. You weren't in a good state just now. I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I chased after you to take a look.”
Although he knew that Tianming had chased after him because he was afraid, his words still moved Ye Xing. Don't worry about me? I was afraid that you would be frightened."
"Then…how could I! I'm not scared. I'll be a martial arts hero in the future. How can such a small scene scare me! Didn't you want to help Uncle? Have you found Uncle's people?" Tianming guiltily changed the topic!
Ye Xing chuckled and did not expose Tian Ming. He followed his words and said,"Yes, yes, Tianming Prawn, wait a moment. I'll fly higher to find Uncle's direction.”
Ignoring Tianming, who was groaning below, Ye Xing, who had temporarily gotten rid of his instinctive troubles and teased Tianming, flew higher and higher in a good mood and began to do his own business.
Flying high indeed allowed one to see far, and it was also very convenient to scout from high up. Without much effort, Ye Xing discovered Ge Nia's tracks and gestured downwards. Ye Xing did not care whether Tianming saw him or not and directly flew towards Ge Nia.
When Ye Xing flew above Ge Nia, Ge Nia seemed to have noticed him long ago. He only glanced at Ye Xing and then ignored him. Ye Xing looked around and sighed in relief after finding no corpses. He landed beside Ge Nia.
Ge Nia did not have any other reaction to Ye Xing's arrival. He was dressed in a white robe and held a sword in his left hand, deep in thought. After a while, Tian Ming rushed over, panting. He pointed at Ye Xing with a face full of grief and indignation.
Ye Xing shrugged his shoulders. When dawn arrived, Ge Nia was finally willing to speak." We have a tracking expert behind us. He has been following us all this time, and he is extremely cunning. The appearance of the Qin soldiers this time means that the road ahead will be even more difficult! Let's continue on our way."
As he spoke, he looked seriously at Tianming and Ye Xing. Ge Nia's gaze made Tianming dodge, but Tianming seemed to have thought of something. Tianming's body trembled and he wanted to retreat, but Ye Xing blocked his path.
Ye Xing held onto Tianming's body and nodded at Ge Nia before following behind him and dragging Tianming along.
