Legend of the Heavenly Swordsman
Ch.151 - Dou Huang's

Fu Chen and Dan Suyu's group continued to explore the cave, until the moment when they felt the air was thinning.

"It seems quite up to here," And Suyu noticed some members of her group who were starting to have trouble breathing.

"You better keep watch outside, let us go deeper into this cave." And Suyu also told the wounded swordsman to return, he did not want them to be killed without any meaningful resistance.

Some members then looked at each other, they also felt that if their bodies had reached the limit, they just felt uncomfortable to state it to Dan Suyu.

"Don't worry about the division of the results, I'll make sure you get enough parts." And Suyu was very grateful to them in this search, he promised to distribute the rations of the harvest as appropriate.

"I will continue my search with the two of them, so don't worry about me and help the other group" Dan Suyu said.

They stared at Fu Chen with a face of disbelief, not because they suspected him but because of the boy's extremely high ability.

Fu Chen only glanced at them a glance before re-wiping his blood-stained sword. His calm demeanor made those who were there unsure of Fu Chen's true age.

"Okay then, we beg you to resign!" The remaining swordsmen then saluted Dan Suyu before turning around, they felt that Dan Suyu's safety would be assured as long as Fu Chen was with her.

And Suyu just nodded slowly with a gentle smile, her gaze then turned to Fu Chen and asked him to prepare.

After long enough to follow the path in the cave, they found many branches that led out the cave.

"It looks like these caves are centered on a single point." Fu Chen tried to bring his ears closer to the wall of the cave, he faintly heard the sound of footsteps as well as the sound of rats in some caves.

"Hows it? Did you find anything?" tanya Dan Suyu when she saw Fu Chen finished walking around.

"We're going to rest here for a moment, it looks like this cave is connected to the cave that other groups are exploring."

"Well, Junior Woo, you better recover your energy soon, we don't know what kind of enemies we'll face." And Suyu patted Sung Woo on the shoulder.

Sung Woo said yes, he also felt his body start to fatigue. With a torch they carried, they rested where all the hallways of the cave met. Fu Chen was also on guard in case any rats approached them.

Fu Chen sensed something strange from his ring during the search, several times the ring felt trembling to the point of making Fu Chen a little surprised.

But after examining it into the earth's ring, there was no sign of anything happening inside.

"I hope it's not something bad." Fu Chen sighed softly.

After a while, one by one the heads of each group came out of the cave hall. Their gazes were filled with question marks when they found Dan Suyu waiting for them there.

Each group had at least brought two members, they only intended to gather information and report it. Because most of the warriors feel unable to continue the fight.

And Suyu watched everyone who came out of the hall, he found an elder who was not there.

"What happened to elder Emdou Yong?" tanya And Suyu.

"Ah..he was acting strange when he saw the bodies of the members found in this cave." The elder who was one of the group with Emdou Yong said that he was seriously injured due to his carelessness.

Fu Chen sighed softly, Emdou Yong is a valuable asset for his future. It would be a waste if he died in this place.

"Thank God he's still alive. You guys better get some rest and recover some energy, we'll go further down this cave."

The elders agreed with Dan Suyu's opinion, the remaining rats were probably only low-level.

After feeling enough they return to continue the search, the more they enter the more humid the air there is. Bones of humans and mice accompanied them along the way, making some warriors feel uncomfortable.

"I felt a strong enough soul ahead.it should be enough to recover a small part of my soul that was beginning to fade."

Fu Chen frowned, he searched for the Dou Huang form in all directions and did not find it.

"What do you want to do with my body?"

Fu Chen did not want Dou Huang to mess with his body, because before something similar had happened and Fu Chen felt pain all over his body after Dou Huang possessed him.

"Don't underestimate me, I know this limitation of your weak body. And also don't let those people interfere."

Dou Huang said nothing afterwards. Fu Chen felt burdened by the Dou Huang's request, he was afraid that Dou Huang would do something that made his plan chaotic.

Cold sweat started popping up when they entered the rat's nest. The atmosphere there was much different from before, the scent of blood as well as killing intent spread out.

Some even began to hesitate to step in. In front of them a mouse almost ten meters high appeared to be lying dying.

His body parts seemed to be eaten by something very greedy. His blood flowed until it made a puddle around him.

"Te-the elder, I seem to have seen something terrible on top of the rat's corpse" said one of the warriors.

They suddenly turned their eyes towards the direction indicated, at which time the figure with red eyes was also staring at them.

That figure was a mouse whose body was only half of that dying mother mouse. However the aura emanating from his body was much more terrifying.

"Son, listen to my warning. The rat is not your rival so let me take care of it." Dou Huang again convinced Fu Chen.

Fu Chen was aware of the difference in his strength with the rat, but with the ability of the elders who came back then should be enough to defeat him.

Fu Chen was quite certain that Dou Huang had woken up because of the souls of the rats he had killed. Fu Chen concluded that Dou Huang was able to absorb the souls through his Earth Ring. However Fu Chen did not know the reason Dou Huang wanted to possess him.

"I'm sorry teacher, but this time I can't trust you.." Fu Chen pulled out his sword, he asked all the elders to be vigilant.

The power of that rat was at least on par with a peak stage Swordsman King. Fu Chen had previously faced a warrior King, but his blessing with Fu Chen escaped.

"Senior, let's attack him at the same time. And I hope you can help when you get the chance."

Seeing Fu Chen's gaze made them involuntarily nod their heads. The Fu Chen they knew indifferently began to reveal his other self.

Fu Chen also let out his aura to suppress the rat's killing appetite. Fu Chen had learned to control his aura so well, that his partner did not feel the pressure.

"Kiiieeeek.." The rat shouted instantly, his instincts as if to say if he should be wary of Fu Chen.

And Suyu and Fu Chen moved simultaneously towards the rat, each of their swords had been flowed Qi to produce an aura of a certain color.

The rat jumped high, but the target was neither Dan Suyu nor Fu Chen. He swung his hand until it produced a gust of wind that was quite strong.

Fu Chen suddenly twisted his body and darted to resist the rat's attack. And Suyu even widened her eyes because she had no time to react.

"Haha..it turns out you're not as stupid as I imagined!" Fu Chen chuckled softly.

Meanwhile the voice of a Dou Huang continued to buzz at Fu Chen's hood. The Old Spirit was as if cursing Fu Chen for his reckless actions.
