The Peerless Heavenly Master of the Tang Sect

Chapter 140 An Ordinary Person
"Get ready to go, Xiaotao, you are still in charge of commanding the battle, and I am in charge of commanding the reserve team."

In the dense forest, Wang Yan whispered. It was four or five o'clock in the morning when the moon was moving westward and the sky was dimly lit. This is the time of day when people are most tired and lethargic.

Generals in ancient wars most liked to carry out night attacks with magical weapons at this time, and everyone in Shrek also chose this time for sneak attacks.

"Okay." Ma Xiaotao nodded in agreement, then glanced at Xu Mu and hesitated, "Xu Mu, come with us."

"No problem." Seeing that Ma Xiaotao decided to take him with him, Xu Mu also happily agreed.

However, Wang Yan frowned slightly, and said, "Isn't that right? Xu Mu is still a freshman with a low level of cultivation, and he has never experienced such a dangerous monitoring task. Xiao Tao, how can you let him join the regular team members?" What about fighting? What if there is danger?"

Ma Xiaotao explained: "Teacher Wang, don't worry, Xu Muke is much more powerful than you think. He was with me when we wiped out the Death Hand bandits before. He has experience."

"This... well, but we must pay attention to protecting his safety." Wang Yan hesitated for a while, but finally agreed with Ma Xiaotao's decision. After all, Ma Xiaotao is the real wisdom.

Ma Xiaotao nodded, and then jumped out first, followed closely by Dai Yueheng and Chen Zifeng, scattered on both sides of her, while Xu Mu and the other four people followed closely behind the three.

Xu Mu's position was in the center, and everyone had a faint tendency to protect him inside.

The eight people were very fast, and soon went deep into the cave.

However, as soon as they entered, everyone's brows furrowed slightly, and an extremely strong and disgusting smell of blood rushed towards them from the depths of the cave.

"The smell of blood is so strong." At this time, no one realized the seriousness of the problem, they just thought it was an ordinary death.

But as they went deeper, everyone discovered that the surrounding walls were covered with blood, and the dark red blood traces would cover the walls of the cave.Not only that, but there are still bones and undecomposed limbs scattered everywhere on the ground. It is hard to imagine that there is such a hell-like place in today's human society.

Such a horrific scene made even the official members of the Shrek Seven Monsters, who had experienced various battles, turn a bit paler, and their hearts became extremely angry.

"Scum." Even Ling Luochen, who was the coldest, couldn't help but cursed through gritted teeth.

"It should be said that this is a group of scumbags who are worse than animals." Dai Yueheng said with cold eyes, the anger in his heart overflowing uncontrollably.

Everyone else was extremely angry, and Ma Xiaotao's face was even more ugly.

Among the eight people, only Xu Mu's face was normal. He had been mentally prepared when he smelled the smell of blood at the entrance of the cave.At this time, he was looking around with his eyes. Although the surrounding environment was very disgusting and angry, fortunately after his observation, there were no hidden secret hands around. Like the evil soul master before, he could control the explosion of corpses. No.

It's just that there is too much blood around, to an extraordinary degree!

According to the information given by the army of the Star Luo Empire, what this bandit group has been doing all along is to intercept and kill passing caravans. Most of the bodies of those killed will stay where they are, and only a small number of people will be looted. Walk.

And since the last incident, although they have committed many crimes in the past few months, they will never rob so many people.

At the same time, the blood scattered around on the walls is definitely not the blood of wild beasts and spirit beasts. It must be human blood. There is a big difference between human blood and wild beast blood. Only those who have seen it can tell the difference.

As they went deeper, the blood on the surrounding walls became more and more vivid, the color became much brighter, and the smell of blood became much stronger.

"Everyone, pay attention. This bandit group is definitely not simple. They may not only rob the caravan, they may have also robbed the village." Xu Mu reminded later.

Everyone's expressions changed, and then they became even more angry, wishing to cut these bandits into pieces. No matter when, looting a village is absolutely intolerable.

Xu Mu felt a little helpless when he saw that everyone was like this. He didn't mean that. He wanted everyone to be careful. The evil soul master's methods are strange and difficult to distinguish, and they can often explode their combat power far beyond their own strength.And with so many people dying here, Xu Mu suspected that what was waiting for them would definitely not be as simple as the Soul King.

Then just when Xu Mugang wanted to continue to remind everyone, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps from the depths of the cave.

Immediately afterwards, a ragged, blood-stained woman ran out from the deep corner of the cave, and behind her were several men with red eyes, obviously members of the bandit group.

"Smelly woman, stop for me!"

The woman originally had a look of despair, but when she saw the Shrek people, her eyes suddenly burst into light of hope, and she ran towards them with big strides, and at the same time shouted: "Help, help me!"

Ma Xiaotao and the others who were walking in front, with a burst of emotion on their faces, also greeted them, "Don't be afraid, we will come to rescue right away..."

"Wooden Talisman, Bow!"

However, what they didn't expect was that a wooden arrow shot from behind them and the others, passed them, and directly nailed the woman and a bandit behind to the wall. The light of hope in the woman's eyes disappeared, and the breath of life also disappeared. dissipated.

"……you?"

The sudden scene stunned everyone and turned their heads. Then they saw Xu Mu slowly putting down the wooden bow in his hand.

A wave of anger couldn't help rising from his heart, Ma Xiaotao asked Xu Mu loudly, "Xu Mu, are you crazy! What are you doing! If you don't give an explanation today, this matter will never end!"

At this moment, Ma Xiaotao really hoped that Xu Mu was not careful, but when she saw his cold gaze, she knew that this was definitely intentional.

Xu Mu took a deep breath, and then said calmly: "She is an ordinary person and cannot be trusted."

He also knew that what he had just done was inappropriate, but for some reason, he felt strong uneasiness from the woman running over, so Xu Mu took action without hesitation.

He trusted his instincts that there was something wrong with this woman.

And then Xu Mu did discover the problem with this woman. She was just an ordinary person.

Xu Mu's words made everyone stunned, and then said angrily: "She is not an ordinary person, isn't she a soul master?"

"But they are soul masters." Xu Mu said lightly, pointing at the bandits in front of them.

Everyone's minds were a little confused all of a sudden. Xu Mu's problem of not speaking clearly needed to be corrected, otherwise it would be very difficult to communicate with him, and it would also cause misunderstandings.

Fortunately, Xixi, who has always had a low sense of existence, understood Xu Mu's words and said, "You mean that there is a big problem with this woman being able to escape from inside."

"Yes."

Everyone finally understood what Xu Mu meant, but they still couldn't accept that Xu Mu had just killed an innocent ordinary person who asked them for help.They, Shrek, would never allow the killing of an innocent ordinary person, which made them feel ashamed.

Even if you doubt it, you can't kill people so directly.

But Xu Mu didn't care. The reason why he came here was to eliminate all existing dangers for everyone. He had a hunch that the enemies this time would definitely be more terrifying than the previous Death Hand bandits.

"Ma Xiaotao, be careful. The enemy this time is definitely not simple. Don't leave anyone alive." Xu Mu warned after thinking for a while.

But Ma Xiaotao was obviously a little angry, and coldly snorted: "I see, Xu Mu, you can stay behind."

Then everyone fought in front, killing all the bandits who hadn't had time to escape just now.

And because of this little episode, all the bandits in the cave woke up and rushed out one after another. For a while, everyone was involved in a fight.I don’t know why this group of people is very powerful in fighting and not afraid of death.

At the same time, they discovered several underground cages along the way, which contained very miserable women. Shrek and the others just wanted to rescue them, but Xu Mu killed them first. This made everyone hate Xu Mu. Opinion is getting bigger and bigger.

If I knew it earlier, I shouldn't have let him come here.

Xu Mu could only shake his head at this, and didn't care too much. He still firmly eliminated the targets he thought were threatening, even if they were a group of ordinary people who were helpless.

The team advanced quickly without speaking.

It's just that after they left, no one noticed that the blood from the bodies of these dead bandits and hostages seeped into the ground one after another, and then disappeared.
