Chapter 597: Draw the Sword
Chapter 597: Draw the Sword
When Su Mu brought 5,000 disciples from Shenhuoshan Villa to the Li family in Taoyuan, the war had already been triggered.
A disciple of the Godly Volcano Villa, along with a group of demons, jumped over the Red-Eyed Rabbit's chariot and attacked the 'Li Family' that had been entrenched here for a thousand years.
The sounds of swords clashing, people shouting, roaring, and wails before death, all filled the world in an instant.
The flames swept through the house and the place where the aristocratic family had lived in peace for a thousand years.
The smell of blood filled the air, and corpses lay silently on the ground.
Disciples of the Shenhuoshan Villa died one after another, and similarly, members of the Li family were buried one after another.
From beginning to end, Su Mu just sat cross-legged on the Red-Eyed Rabbit's carriage with his eyes slightly closed, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
His breathing became calmer and calmer, and the breath he exhaled seemed to dissipate into the sky and earth, and the clouds rolled.
I don't know when the rain started, it fell on the ground like water, turning the ground into mud.
A heavy rain curtain fell, landing on Su Mu's body, but stopped when it was about to get close.
His hand was on the hilt of the sword at his waist
On the battlefield, the first elder of the Li family could not help but attack the disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa and killed several of them in an instant.
He drew his sword.
A sword cut through the rain curtain.
It was aimed at the elder of the Li family who killed the disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.
This is a powerful elder of the Li family, who even possesses a rare defensive magic weapon.
But under this sword, no sound was made, just like those dead bodies, falling silently.
"boom……"
There was a sound of explosion in the air, and seven or eight elders of the Li family, led by the head of the Li family, surrounded Su Mu.
Everyone held a magic weapon in their hands, the precious light shone on everyone's body, and a strong aura connected with everyone's body.
At this moment, Su Mu's left hand was on the hilt of the sword at his waist, his head slightly lowered, his eyes calm. The heavy raindrops fell but stopped above the crowd as they confronted each other.
At some point, the surging water above everyone almost stagnated.
"Go back."
Clan leader Li Pengcheng spoke solemnly.
"call……"
A slight exhalation sound came from Su Mu's nose. He raised his head, looked at the head of the Li family, smiled, but did not answer.
The only response he received was the sword in his hand.
"presumptuous."
Li Pengcheng, the head of the Li family, roared. As the roar resonated like thunder, Li Pengcheng leaped up, unsheathing a dazzling sword. The blade flashed like a dragon, aiming straight for Su Mu's throat. Seeing this, the other elders also displayed their magical powers. Their magic weapons shone brightly, forming an impenetrable attack net that enveloped all of Su Mu's vital points.
Su Mu's sword also moved.
It seemed that his sword was not fast, like a spring breeze in early spring, but it silently blocked the attacks of everyone. He only made one sword move, but everyone seemed to feel that the sword was hitting him.
Li Pengcheng was shocked. He had always heard that Su Mu's talent in swordsmanship was not inferior to Wang Quanbaiye. He had actually always been skeptical, but at this moment, facing the opponent's sword in person, he felt the terrifying pressure it brought.
It was obvious that everyone was besieging Su Mu alone, and the strength of each elder was almost as strong as Su Mu. It was obvious that they were the ones who had the advantage, but at this moment, they were not.
The stagnant rain in the sky also came down at this moment, hitting everyone.
…………
Blood flowed out of his body, merged with the rain, and flowed across the land, dyeing the entire land blood red.
The bodies of the disciples of the Shenhuoshan Villa, the bodies of the monsters, and the bodies of more members of the Li family lay quietly on the muddy ground.
Su Mu held the hilt of the sword and moved forward silently. At this moment, there were less than five Li family elders surrounding him, and each of them was covered in wounds. Although Su Mu's condition was also not good, fear had already appeared in the eyes of these elders. What made them even more desperate was that the match between their clansmen and the disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa was also at a disadvantage.
The disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa might be slightly weaker than the Li family members in terms of individual strength due to their lack of training time. In terms of magic weapons, they are far inferior to the Li family who have been entrenched here for a thousand years. Their only advantage is probably that they have many more monster companions.
But every disciple of Shenhuoshan Villa is almost fearless of death. Perhaps, they do not cherish their lives as much as the people from the high-ranking aristocratic families. They seem to not care about their own lives. When one person is like this, and thousands of people are like this, it causes the so-called qualitative change. Even though the "Li family" has magic weapons, individual advantages, and local advantages, they are still defeated by Shenhuoshan Villa.
"kill."
Bai Xiu held the sword high in his hand, his eyes blazing. Occasionally, while everyone was fighting, they would unconsciously glance at the battlefield on the other side.
That was the battlefield of the real top masters. The owner of the manor, Su Mu, almost single-handedly held back most of the top masters of the Li family.
"kill."
Wang Xueqin also gritted her teeth. As long as the owner of the manor did not leave, then Shenhuoshan Manor would not retreat.
If the Zhuang leader wants to fight, they will also fight to the death.
Almost every one of them had a bad background. If it weren't for Su Mu, perhaps they would never have been able to start practicing.
It was Su Mu who discovered them from the countless creatures covered in mud, and he wanted to take them to discover more people like them, so that more people could have dignity and stand upright on this land, instead of becoming so-called lowly people. Everyone would have hope, and everyone would have the opportunity to become a 'dragon'.
All the disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa knew that what lay ahead was a road full of thorns. Along the way, more and more people would fall, but... more and more people would catch up, because at the end of this road was a land full of... hope.
But many of the monsters that followed had already shirked in fear on this bloody battlefield. Too many deaths had frightened many monsters, and some had even thought of deserting because of the cruelty of the battlefield.
But looking at their former companions in Shenhuoshan Villa, and the selfless figures of the disciples of the villa, more monsters felt ashamed. Although humans and monsters rarely lived in peace in Shenhuoshan Villa, the monsters' naturally strong bodies made them always have a natural sense of superiority when facing the weakness of human flesh.
But at this moment, this sense of superiority made the demon feel even more ashamed when he saw the disciples of the villa risking their lives and his vague idea of desertion. Especially when he saw that many demons had retreated, for the demons who did not have too many twists and turns, it was simply a shame that made him want to die.
"My men, we demons are not short of heroes. If I take a step back today, you will kill me first."
A bull demon waved a huge mace in his hand and roared loudly.
"The demon race is not inferior to humans."
Another tiger demon roared, stirred up gusts of black wind, and pounced towards the Li family.
…………
Su Mu pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, staring quietly at the elders of the Li family in front of him. At this moment, looking at the scene on the ground under his feet, he suddenly laughed.
Before coming, he thought that he should try to break through the siege of Li family masters as soon as possible to support others.
But at this moment, on the other side, the disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa had the advantage.
Many disciples of Shenhuoshan Villa clearly knew that those who rushed to the front would die the fastest, but each of them rushed forward desperately. They knew that there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, but they were like moths flying into the fire, resolute and determined.
Many people were clearly seriously injured and dying, with no strength left, and could only lie quietly on the muddy ground. However, there was rarely any pain or despair on their faces, but more of a sense of pride and a smile.
It was as if they were not dying, but some kind of rebirth.
Over our dead bodies.
"Master, let's move forward."
Standing on the ground, a disciple of the villa was half-kneeling on the ground, with his sword sticking on the ground. His chest was completely pierced by an arrow. At this moment, he had lost his breath. He still raised his head and looked forward with unfocused eyes, as if speaking to Su Mu who was passing by.
"Master, let's move forward."
The dead seemed not to be dead at all. They seemed to be able to speak and were whispering in Su Mu's ears.
Su Mu felt sad in his heart. These disciples of the villa were all trained by him personally, and every death of them made him sad, but at this moment, he had a smile on his face.
He pressed the hilt of the sword in his hand and took steps forward, and his heart calmed down despite its strong beating.
In his eyes, the world and everything in it seemed to have turned into a series of interwoven lines, which were also the lines that enveloped this world.
That's the 'domain'.
It is a realm of heaven and earth that humans can never reach. It is a realm of heaven and earth that only the Demon King can reach and control.
It is like the "domain" of the Ten Thousand Poisons Domain that Huandu Qingtian had built back then.
Those intertwined lines represent the control over this piece of land, the power that dominates the world.
At this moment, Su Mu once again
"Sword drawn."
