The Demon Swordsman 3
Ch. 09 - Demon Blowers Flute
Several other generals realized their numbers were dwindling, screams after shouts were heard blaring in the rows of the fighting troops. Perhaps a day and a half had passed with bloodshed, some soldiers had fallen and were exhausted. Not a few of them died horribly.
Blood, war and terrible chaos enveloped everything. Compassion and humanity were erased in that land. Killing each other is the only way to survive.
An extremely furious heavy shout appeared, the spear with the sharp edge of the eye moving obliquely through the neck of the soldier. The man with complete armor walked jerking. Inevitably, even just looking at the way the man was walking was holding back his exasperation half to death.
He looked at the corpses of his sworn enemies who had been sprawled headless. General-1 knew the person well even from his breath. He who had always hated his enemy was now beginning to feel pity.
General-18 was killed at the hands of an enemy considered to be his own counterpart.
"I've said that people from their places are no more rotten than animals! Cih, I shouldn't have let you go that day!"
The long spear pierced through the lifeless body, General-1 still unable to calm down at all. "Do you see what's happening now?! Even a saint can be more demonic than an ordinary person. Imagine if a human who mastered the technique of controlling spirits seemed to be?"
But his worries momentarily changed, "But of course that person was no match for a spirit controller of his level. Even to kill me myself, I believe the leader of the Four Surveillance Units is incapable of doing so."
"really?"
Then General-1 went silent without seeing the source of the voice behind him. He smiled obliquely, his index finger holding the spear slightly trembled.
"Not wrong anymore ... This damned aura, is very thick and dark ... How many humans have you fallen into to gain this much power?" General-1 could not deal with Xin Chen like he was in the military center of the Qing Empire. Where he can kick the body of the person in front of him without fear. For now, just yelling it feels like his throat is choked.
Not without reason. What he said just now certainly had a reason. That black aura around Xin Chen was growing increasingly uncontrollable, affecting directly his soul. So far General-1 has not seen the true strength of his enemy. He was completely unwilling to underestimate Xin Chen for one thing; the War God Spirit. Only people with great strength were able to resurrect it.
Although all conjecture and fear took hold of him, General-1 remained calm. His face covered in head protection grew even more vigilant when he saw Xin Chen not showing any signs of movement
"You're after me, for what reason? I'm sure someone like you would choose to finish off people like the Strongest Five who are now slaughtering your Imperial soldiers."
Xin Chen moved his hand slowly, "You really want to know why?"
Not a word made it out of General-1's mouth. He tried to learn the look on his enemy's face. His eyes were closed as usual. Wanting to think even half a day, General-1 could only draw one conclusion. Xin Chen wanted to fight him to avenge his deeds at the military headquarters. It was certainly an embarrassing occurrence especially for the leader of a large group like Xin Chen.
At least that's what General-1 thinks.
"I don't think you're a vengeful person."
"You're not wrong." He said before finally continuing. "But I didn't kill you for the reason you thought."
Before looking at the immense power that began to envelop around Xin Chen, General-1 first looked at the two eyes of Xin Chen who were finally wide open.
General-1 is not a fool who cannot tell which one speaks only and which one speaks with double meaning in it. Xin Chen was one of the people with monstrous characteristics. His eyes were full of tricks. Unimaginable at these times, his attention was precisely on the contents inside Xin Chen's brain while he was now in a dire situation.
Some of the soldiers who were around started to panic, the air pressure dropped drastically accompanied by a terrible temperature change. In that second, the leaves did not even move as the wind blew. Everyone looked around quickly while wondering.
"What's this?!"
"Damn ... Is this the power of the Spirit Controller?"
Before finishing the sentence, the soldier's black eyeballs disappeared and left only murky white eyes. If the human soul is like a burning fire, then the power of the spirit is the wind that kills it.
Their bodies shivered in horror.
"Is he your leader?"
Xin Chen asked without a single one daring to answer him.
"Is he someone you're afraid of? You are afraid and have the strongest impression as a leader in your District?"
Generals-1 pias. He finally understood Xin Chen's intentions after a few minutes.
Moral war. The war that Xin Chen played out to kill the number of people who were far above them. By destroying the fighting spirit, the enemy would be much weaker. He deliberately did that, and from the beginning everyone knew Xin Chen was eyeing Li Baixuan first despite not being able to defeat her.
But when Xin Chen managed to cut off Li Baixuan's hand and was witnessed by some, of course, they thought that Xin Chen might be able to kill their leader.
"chicus ... Very devious."
There was no other word that could be said other than that, the sentence continued to repeat itself without cause. A few seconds the new General-1 realized that his mind was starting to be affected by Xin Chen's strength.
Unexpectedly, at that moment fifty red spirits appeared and flew in all directions. That spirit was the spirit belonging to the greatest of the Four Surveillance Units that Xin Chen had defeated.
The people who were within Xin Chen's control would lose their black eyeballs. Then the red spirits came into their subconscious. The power that the spirit possessed was equivalent to the strength of a war general.
"Sad, is that all you can do?!" General-1 fights the fear that begins to ambush his soldiers.
"That's common! Show me everything, it's nothing compared to our hundreds of thousands of soldiers!"
General-1 intends to move his weapon but what he does is just silent. Now, his entire body had even been fully under Xin Chen's control.
The people who had been entered by the red spirit began to fight crazily, one by one lives per second. Some of the enemies retreated in fear, some curled up while shouting loudly for help. Everyone can only save themselves. Xin Chen knew the weakness of the people of the Qing Empire because Jun Xiaorong said it himself. The Qing Empire was once in a crisis situation caused by spirit users, they often called it a calamity and spit whenever mentioning the names of people who used that evil power.
The presence of spirit users in an entirely different age had shocked them. For all the books and instructions had been burnt out by the Emperor in order to exterminate the would-be spirit users in the Qing Empire. There were still some who could control it, but Emperor Yin secretly killed them. And if he can't, then he'll send it somewhere else. Just like the case of Zhang Ziyi who was ordered to go to the Shang Empire and slaughter dozens of villages in just one night.
"I'll show you."
That red power must have come from the power of the War God Spirit. General-1 could only pay attention to him while turning his back.
"The Book of Spirit Controllers - Second Stage."
Behind Xin Chen, appeared a female demon whose body was almost as large as a demon. His nails are sharp, his eyes are plump with long hair. In her hand was a beautiful flute. The demon-or more looks like the demon was staring at General-1 with a sigh.
"-Satan Flute Blowers."
In the next second no one knew if General-1 was going to exhale his last breath. A second before the spirit woman appeared behind him.
