The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 281 - Trust of 200 Years
"That teacher Yuhao, he's the one who got my brother trapped in the forest and captured by them! I could have sworn he was the one who brought her there, not my own sister who wanted to break through to the outside! Cut off my tongue if I'm lying!"
"While it is true, is not telling the existence of the heirloom that we have guarded for hundreds of years remains a despicable act? You destroyed the trust our ancestors had built with the Emperor! You spit on that oath! Barbarians!"
The young man tried to protect his body with two arms, he was trampled by dozens of people. But not the slightest hint of anger when he was beaten, his lips dripping with blood tried to speak. His fingers were shaking violently.
"That woman, she can't be trusted. He's been cheating on us, and I don't want to do this! He said if I didn't find my brother soon, he'd be burned alive by an outsider. I can't keep quiet. And right now I realize, he's deliberately screwing me up and waiting for the right time when we misstep."
"I didn't ask for your defense."
The voice of the leader's wife is more like a growl, in the clenched teeth. If only he did not remember that the boy was the son of one of the influential men in YuangXe then it would be with pleasure to slit the boy's throat. But he thought it was better if the law retaliated against the action.
"You must be put to death. In the most despicable way until your father would cry to see you. But I'm not sure if he's alive or not"
"Teacher Yuhao is gone."
"What did you say?!" the shrill tone sounded loud.
"I saw it. That spirit user killed him."
"It can't be ...." YuangXe's wife fell down, she suddenly felt power loss. If Yuhao couldn't help it, the Ghosts of YuangXe would die. There was nothing they could hope for but themselves.
"Take out all the spells Yuhao gave you! Hurry along! Fortify this place without a crack-"
"May I help you?"
"Do whatever!" The woman was goosebumps when suddenly the temperature drop occurred, her sweaty palms froze. Behind him hundreds of spells had been burned by the blue flames that continued to spread burning the ropes tied to the spells. So did the case with Yuhao's house that kept a huge amount of paper.
The YuangXe people tried to resist, it was undeniable that their physical strength could subvert anything so easily. Moreover, the opponent's body was twice as small as their own.
But it was as if it was useless to be faced with a spirit user. Even if any of them were to master the science, as Xin Chen's power over dominated the spirits in their hands could be instantly destroyed.
Time passed so fast that the woman could not blink, seeing them surrounded by the fast-moving flames of eternity. No one can put it out. Until finally the figure who was the cause of the chaos put a corpse on the ground. Then it disappeared and appeared again on top of the highest fortress.
"Yuhao, your leader and the Ghosts of YuangXe are gone."
"I've heard of your cunning from Master Yuhao, but I didn't think you weren't this heartless. Getting rid of important people here just to make us feel helpless?"
"If from the beginning I wanted to kill you, I could have burned this one YuangXe with the Fire of Immortality. Without bothering to come in and spend time serving you."
The reply left the woman somewhat daunted, they were running out of steps. A useless physical attack on the young man, the spirit users lost consciousness and the prepared spells were already burnt.
"Then what? What do you mean do this?!"
The clattering of feet from a distance was not a lie, the woman herself could hear it. There are more women in the land of YuangXe. While many men died from hunting against demons in order to suffice their daily food
In this land they fought for, there was nothing more to expect. The river has long since dried up, the plants cannot grow there. And there were hardly any animals or animals left. They ate them all, including wolves and frogs.
The little ones looked towards Xin Chen restlessly, the women were protecting her child while the men stood at the very front row carrying weapons.
"Do you believe in humans?"
Xin Chen's question made the woman gambled, she was sure it was a gesture. They were all surrounded and had no choice but to lose.
"I don't want to believe them ..."
"You think only of your own selfishness, your decision means a great deal to the life of the man behind you who you call a brother."
"Don't try to advise me!"
"Then I'll be back. The War God Armor was still in the same place, not touching it at all. But you must remember the oath to the Emperor. Don't let it fall into the wrong hands."
As Xin Chen left, the woman spoke a thousand languages.
All conjectures filled his mind, Xin Chen knew that thing and not touching it sounded like a threat. Yet on the other hand, he realized Xin Chen was not lying. Moreover, to the point of leaving YuangXe when victory was already in front of his eyes. As Xin Chen said earlier, it was only necessary to burn one YuangXe with the Fire of Immortality.
The fire of Eternity that burned the spell vanished unceasingly, the inhabitants began to worry about something. Far from the south, a horde of horsemen spurred quickly to their place. The woman grew increasingly upset when other voices told each other until there was a debate. He looked back, where tens - even nearly hundreds - were hanging their lives on him.
"Look for that guy, we should talk to him about something. And so are you," the woman pointed at the Ghost child of YuangXe.
"Stay here with me."

"Hoi, what are you doing? Aren't you here for the heirloom?" babble Shui is now the opposite. He looked in disbelief towards Xin Chen who was just putting on a face of indifference.
"Call the others, we're back."
Shui raised next to his eyebrows, disagreeing with Xin Chen's decision. He already knew what was happening in YuangXe. Leaving the heirloom in such a fragile place is not the right thing to do. If one day the thing fell into the hands of the black flow strongman, in the future Xin Chen would definitely be overwhelmed by it.
"Yes already. Think about it while I'm also kayang I don't understand how your brain works."
"Brother, please don't go first."
