The Demon Swordsman 3
Ch. 05 - Head on a Pool of Blood
Nan Ran just fell on the ground when a huge lightning strike came. He had thought his life was immediately taken by the attack but in fact it was not. It was precisely Zhaohuo's strength that disappeared.
In that instant Nan Ran was not so conscious, his mind was empty until Lao Zi came immediately to take him to a safe place. He did not even feel any pain other than being silent. To Nan Ran, he had been dead since earlier. It's just that maybe the body will wait a little longer to be buried. He really lost something very valuable to him.
Lao Zi flinched violently as the fight above the descending sky struck the ground. Li Baixuan stood firmly with one hand grasping at something she had just hit. No one could follow a fight that exceeded that lightning speed. Not a few of them stopped fighting to see what happened.
For the first time for the Soldiers of the Qing Empire, they saw Li Baixuan fighting earnestly against the enemy. No kidding, the blow just now had made a hole deep enough to be a hundred meters underground. The man's burly hands clenched, he had almost caught Xin Chen re-uniting with the air. It's hard to trace his whereabouts. And plus, there are various mysterious powers that the young man still seems to keep from him.
"Show me everything you've got!"
Li Baixuan's shout seemed to tear apart the surrounding chaos. The people around him did not see who the man was talking to, but they knew that the sentence was directed at the Chairman of the Four Surveillance Units.
The sharp lines on Li Baixuan's face grew more and more visible, the look on her face grew even more terrifying as there were no signs of her enemy's presence. Deftly the man turned his weapon, intending to look for Xin Chen by sensing the air of his presence.
Not everyone can feel the presence of a spirit user, even if they could only sniff it from the force that the person was exerting and it was extremely difficult to do even for Li Baixuan himself.
He did not feel the air of Xin Chen's presence at all after previously successfully tracking him down. Also at that time Xin Chen was unleashing an enormous amount of power making it easier to track him down.
When he had just started the search, Li Baixuan was shocked by a demon with a terrifying apparition. The demon's body was much bigger than her. And plus just by standing there, Li Baixuan could hear the noisy voices of the demons. Precisely the sound of power coming out so quickly from the horn on his head.
"You're a very interesting victim. It just so happens that guy doesn't mind if I take your soul."

General-18 begins to lose balance. So far he had defeated so many enemies but as if endless, they kept coming. One by one until the entire body of the man was now bathed in blood. Undoubtedly, this war may take days or even weeks.
His huge robe was torn apart, the 18-year-old General nearly fell down but he quickly propped up his body weight using a sword. The man tried to raise his face, finding a familiar young man in front of him standing on his back. General-18 was barely silent for a few seconds until he finally regained his senses.
"You-you?!"
The figure did not turn his head at all but General-18 was sure who he was. Clutching back his sword he walked over, the 18-year-old knew he could not fight on balance with that fellow since his current state was arguably severe. But defeating him was a matter of his pride.
"You betrayed your oath!"
The figure shook and slowly turned around so that the 18-General could see his face so white, like not a single speck of blood was flowing in it.
"Obstin' for me to betray my oath."
"Don't the empire you said that day was the Shang Empire?"
"true."
"But you've sworn-"
"I also put forward the conditions. That oath only applies when you trust me."
"What?" His throat was choked, General-18 unconsciously clenched his left hand. He began to guess the direction Xin Chen was going to talk to and was worried if it was really that coming out of his mouth.
"You sent a lot of spies to watch over me after that day."
On target. General-18 began to re-enforce his legs. This conversation will only end at one point. The battle between who among them will die. The 18-general would have no more face to face the Emperor if his folly was exposed. Believing the greatest enemy of the current Qing Empire, the Leader of the Four Surveillance Units. The Disaster and Danger of the reborn Qing Empire. The spirit user.
It did not take long, now the two have faced each other while holding weapons.
"Take my life if you can. I would rather die shamefully at the hands of my own enemies than be put to death by Emperor Yin."
In the Qing Empire, the punishment that General-18 would receive would certainly be even more grievous. Skinned without the family's knowledge, his body was left to rot in the scorching sun. His name will not be remembered as a great warrior who led one district but a filthy traitor who did not deserve to live. It was certain that his grandchildren would experience endless misfortunes. General-18 really can not imagine the consequences he received.
General-18 had placed great suspicion on his own right hand.The man had been working without telling what he was doing in the center of the Empire. Somehow in the past, he had seen his right hand and Xin Chen several times at the same time.
"I don't think my eyes are too blind to see the enemy in front of my own eyes." Then he laughed in a slightly mocking tone, "But to be honest, that face of yours is really deceiving. I thought you were such a good person that it felt like even ants wouldn't kill you."
Xin Chen was not surprised anymore, he also knew that many of his enemies were gullible even without him saying anything.
While putting up the men's designs sharpen the vision.
Xin Chen said with weight.
"I knew this was going to happen. Even though it's so good to know you."
General-18 did not issue any answers, he was very focused on looking ahead. A few seconds later until he finally advanced while shouting like a knight. Without fear and hesitation, his leg was heard so loud that the sound of a sword was heard. The body of the 18th General was still running, but not with his head now lying on a pool of blood.
