The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 209 - Rescue Mission IV
In the real world it seems that twenty warriors fell for no reason, they screamed out in disobedience. It was much more painful than being burned alive. The howling continued until two minutes later with no one to help. The members of the East Wind Mountain sect were silent at the sight of the tragic sight, not knowing what they were thinking but since then their gazes changed towards Xin Fai.
The aim of the screams is no longer heard, replaced with a silence that is so piercing. Now that there was a black-flow swordsman left who still survived falling to his feet, he was beyond the reach of the Blood Rain Illusion. His life was still helped at least a few seconds later before the young man who was now walking closer came as if he wanted to chop off his head.
"You were, huh?"
"Y-yes?" The man replied, the oxygen was thinning around him due to the fear he felt.
"The person who wanted to give me gold at the stage house earlier, I think you have sympathy for your neighbor. But not with your enemies."
Just then the man's gaze fell down, he ducked in regretting his actions.
"I... I do all this for money and strength. I'm a sinner, even though I know this is wrong, but I have no choice but to survive."
The man continued. "We, who are often regarded as trash, will continue to live as trash, Mr. Swordsman. Only the Blood Devil Man can accommodate all of us, losers like us are not worthy of being accepted by good people like you."
"Do you think we're all good people?"
The man fell silent again, he closed his eyes. "If you want to kill me, go ahead. I don't mind, maybe by dying in your hands the guilt I've been feeling will be less."
"You know where Xin Xia is hidden?"
The sudden question made the man look up quickly. He seemed to want to talk but something was holding him back. "I'm sorry, I can't tell you."
"All right, you can live. At least until I get your information. Introduce me Xin Fai, the leader of the Sacred Sword Alliance."
"Chairman Xin, what does this all mean?" Zhu Yue came, she had just killed the opponent and found their leader discussing with the enemy.
"But, sir, I've sinned enough, you better kill me right away because I can't give you any information myself." The man had a scorpion tattoo on his chest.
"If it says our secret information, this tattoo will immediately react and break my body that very second. We who enter this group each have a guardian demon inside the body."
"I already know, all you need to do is get rid of the demon, right?"
Zhu Yue who had been ignored had finally restrained herself and listened to the chat for longer, unknowingly the enemies who were elsewhere had been exhausted from being slaughtered by the Eastern Wind Mountain sect troops and the Sacred Sword Alliance.
"That's impossible..."
"You feel guilty enough? Why not try to make up for it all by helping to reconcile this world?"
The man's words were stuck at the end of his throat, his eyes trying to take a long look while thinking hard. As the man considered Xin Fai turned to look at Zhu Yue.
"After this we will go to the Lotus Temple sect to deliver Shen Xuemei, after all from the beginning I want to meet my other friends there."
"Good Chairman Xin. All decisions are in your hands."
"Yes, I'll come. Thank you for giving me a chance to live, Mr. Swordsman. Before that, introduce my name Ho Xiuhan."
The moment a helping hand offered him a stand, Ho Xiuhan smiled slightly and immediately greeted him. He had not expected today to be met with a figure like Xin Fai.
Unable to sigh in relief the sudden commotion behind him, Xin Fai turned to the source of the voice and found Zhuan Ang was falling with his mouth filled with blood. He endured the tremendous pain from the fight earlier, trying to force himself not to become too much of a burden on his comrades.
Now that the rest of his inner power had been exhausted, he had no more strength to resist the poison within his increasingly violent body. Zhuan Ang was lying on the ground, trying to take a deep breath but his lungs were getting congested. The young man was eager to grimace but when he saw Ren Yuan crouching beside him all the moans were held back as much as possible.
Zhuan Ang just didn't want to look weak.
"Stupid! What happened to you?!" Ren Yuan patted his cheek slowly, only according to him slowly but what Zhuan Ang felt was just a slap like the slap of someone who was being ignited by a grudge.
One of the members of the Sacred Sword Alliance was aware of that since earlier, he saw how Zhuan Ang struggled. "He was exposed to poison, maybe the poison was too dangerous. Look at his face starting to turn blue."
Xin Fai had just come after them, she was kneeling beside Zhuan Ang who was defending her life.
On one side Xin Fai had no solution because inside his spatial ring there was no longer any remaining antidote to all the poison because he had previously worn it. Plus the age of Zhuan Ang might not last long if it had to be taken to a nearby city to buy a bidder.
Ho Xiuhan knelt down beside the weakly lying body of Zhuan Ang. He raised his face. "This poison can be cured by drinking the blood of that person," he said as he pointed at Shen Xuemei who was standing not far from there, coincidentally he was also walking towards them.
Without spouting any more words Shen Xuemei slashed his finger slightly, a few drops of blood soaked Zhuan Ang's lips. Shortly after the blood began to react, the toxins in Zhuan Ang's body began to stop gnawing at his body.
Seeing Zhuan Ang's state began to improve, Xin Fai finally realized why the body of the Poisonous One was so targeted. His blood can be used as an antidote to all poisons. Come to think of it again whatever Shen Xuemei had been feeling during his life on the run, it was also possible that his body was drying up because his blood was always being sucked like this.
Dusk slowly retreating, usually seen the sunset presenting a sense of peace, Xin Fai took a deep breath. They all won in the attack this time, it can be said this is progress after several years of white flow parties often lose in fighting over territory.
On the other hand he could see Ho Xiuhan helping Shen Xuemei stand up, it seemed that the man really seriously wanted to change the course of his life. Although Xin Fai was not so sure for now, she also had to think about how to get back her sister who might be in danger.
Moreover, his plan to extract information from the higher-ups of the Blood Devil Man was presumably mistaken, they were just like Ho Xiuhan, after all, if it said the secret of the group then its body would be broken by the demons that were planted in their body indiscriminately.
Although he had never seen the death of a member of the Blood Devil Man as a result of saying this secret directly but more or less Xin Fai already believed it, because he himself had seen how those people recruited members and instilled evil demons in their bodies.
Dusk like this made him even more dizzy thinking, Xin Fai tried to find calmness by looking at the orange tinge above the sky. The calm was instantly gone when his ears were greeted by the voice of a beautiful girl.
Just as Ren Yuan was about to say something after previously timidly speaking, Xin Fai had already passed him by first. He had no time for something called love, there were so many things he had to pursue.
"Hey, it's rude! I just wanted to talk!"
"Just talk to the others, I have to loot everything in this place before we leave."
