The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 250 - Border Gate
"Armghh!!" A sharp incision pierced through the neck of a man skillfully, behind the darkness of the night without illumination a horde of warriors each played his sword to finish off the enemy. I don't know how long this has been going on, until they forget how to give mercy to their fellow men. Being the figure of a bloodthirsty demon, they were the Sacred Sword Alliance.
The name of the Holy Sword Alliance was increasing day by day due to the all-out slaughter they were doing, he said, clearing the path of the Empire that was polluted by the Demonic Blood Man as well as proving that even hard-to-beat enemies could submit before them.
Unfortunately many were against their idealism, considered too bloodthirsty and merciless at all the Sacred Sword Alliance was not disinclined but feared. The way to kill them is the same or much more sadistic than even black warriors. Moreover, the late circulating work system of the Sacred Sword Alliance where members who kill 50 kills in one combat can get thousands of gold pieces.
The sea of blood smelled up to within a hundred meters, another headquarters had fallen in the hands of the Sacred Sword Alliance. Some of them died by the poison arrows made by Xin Fai himself to hasten the death of the enemy. The rest died with sharp weapons. None of them survived, and even their small tents were destroyed.
"Chairman, I managed to get information from the surrounding residents." One of the members reported after previously going out looking for information, he raised his head.
"The borders of the Qing Empire only need to travel another hour southward."
Xin Fai looked up at the sky, the night began to change in the morning but the atmosphere was very cloudy. The atmosphere that made anyone become grim at that early time especially with a sea of blood like this.
"We'll rush off to go there after looting their belongings, tell Zhu Yue to prepare the horses."
"Good, Chief."
After leaving Xin Fai, it turned out that Lan An had come from a distance. As usual, she smiled at everyone. Lan An stopped while in front of Xin Fai, propping up the sword on his shoulders.
"Our school is a lot today."
"That's how it is." he replied as he sat cross-legged on a mound of dirt, looking very exhausted the past few days. "Five months since leaving Senior Yong and the others and becoming a group opposed by society, your face is still the same as Big Brother An."
Lan An laughed suddenly with her funny expression. She did not expect Xin Fai to say that.
"I don't care what people say about us, they're just stupid buffalo. Forgive the lives of others, tomorrow his own life is finished by the Blood Devil Man. How do you think it is?"
"This matter is already too protracted, letting them live on too will only add to the problem. It's about the demons in their bodies. I've heard from someone, the person who has a red scorpion tattoo on his chest can't live without killing or the devil will master it. I don't think people know about this and feel like we don't take someone's life for granted."
"Chairman Xin's longest words since I joined the Sacred Sword Alliance, hahaha!" Lan An chuckled to the point of shaking her head, Xin Fai smiled wryly again and again felt that her nonsense earlier was not taken seriously at all. He glared forward where the members were busy searching the contents of the enemy headquarters, chatting and laughing.
Pretty good group atmosphere. There was Zhu Yue who continued to ramble indistinctly. Since recovering from his coma the man was like a fussy demon possession, not a day did he miss without nagging the members.
"In this group of yours the people are fine, even though on the battlefield they're like serial killers but I'm happy to be among you." Lan An said slowly.
"You're also part of us, after all we've been fighting together for the past few months. Towards the Qing Empire while eliminating the enemy, I think after this the state of the Shang Empire will start to improve before we go to the Qing Empire."
Xin Fai blinked her eyes trying to understand the words, she herself had never heard the news at all.
"You're not getting along with society... From there we can hear the information, you know just as long as there's warm news everyone must be gathering."
"Emperor Qin will be replaced? I don't know what's gonna happen next, whether it's good or bad."
"That Qin Minjie I think is almost the same as Emperor Qin, he is quite wise and also respected by people. From his reputation I'm sure he's a good guy. But sadly..."
"Why indeed?" Xin Fai corrected her sitting position.
"Unfortunately he was too quiet, barely speaking at all. If you sit next to him you can freeze to death, he's too stiff as long as you know" Lan An said with a serious face. Xin Fai furrowed her brows. "Where do you know that? Have you ever met him?"
"Even so, last time while visiting the Qin Emperor's residence and meeting him. I just smiled, she threw away."
Xin Fai changed into laughing after that, seeing Lan An's face start to get irritated for sure her meeting with Qin Minjie was not exactly good. The young man was like holding a deep grudge against the person they were talking about.
"Still in the morning gossiping," said Zhu Yue who was rolling the rope in her hand, she took a deep breath as she saw the two young men before her could only grin.
"Chairman, the army is ready. Just waiting for instructions to be sent."
"Let's go, we have to arrive this morning as well as the possibility of the border not being crowded in the morning."
Arriving at the border as had been expected to enter the Qing Empire could not be done easily, now they were faced by dozens of guards in war clothes who were ready to fight in case of rebellion. Their gazes were alert with sharp jaws down, illustrating how harsh the character of their society was.
Some even had permanent wounds clearly imprinted on the face, as pride for the fight that had once been passed. Yong Tao once said in the Qing Empire the law of the jungle prevailed. The strong survive, the weak are trampled.
"You're all from the Shang Empire? Not having permission to come here. Back to your place, we don't accept immigrants here."
Xin Fai denounced. "But I see you just let people from the black stream in. Who doesn't know them? They are Blood Demon Man." After saying Xin Fai folded both her hands on her chest. "You're letting a white-flow swordsman's enemy in for what reason?"
"You-you?!" The man pointed in annoyance. "Shut your mouth or I'll have everyone here hit you!"
"Hit me?" he said while looking back. "After me are eighty men ready to fight, are you sure?"
