The Lord of the Gods of the Universe
Ch. 51 - Black Skull Bandit

Yesterday deliberately did not update the latest chapter because I was afraid that there were still people who wanted to ask but did not have time because the deadline was up....

Thank you for asking and happy reading.

The quiet tavern-owner quickly learned that the two people in front of her were ascetics, she prostrated towards Yao Jun as well as Li Yuwen while crying for help.

Yao Jun who was shocked by what the woman in front of him did then made him wake up from his prostration because he felt bad about the sight.

Afterward Yao Jun persuaded the crying woman to calm down and told her what had actually happened to the village she lived in.

“My daughter .. please help my daughter!” The woman pleaded as she held onto Yao Jun's arm.

“What's with your son mistress?” Yao Jun tried asking more clearly.

Trying to calm down, the woman then explained what had happened to the village she lived in.

About a week ago, the small, initially quiet and peaceful village was the arrival of a group of men who claimed to be a traveler.

Seeing the travelers carrying items that look quite unique in the eyes of the residents, added the travelers told a story that the villagers had never heard before, they also allowed the travelers to stay in the village, even making a festive party at night.

But without them knowing the party at night will be a start of a catastrophe that destroys the peaceful life of the citizens.

The previously friendly travelers took off the robe that covered their bodies, and under the cloak was seen a black skull tattoo that was quite creepy, and the tattoo is visible on the right arm of every traveler.

Not only that, behind the body covered by the previous robe was a sword on each of the waists of the travelers, the ordinary citizens who saw the sword became frightened.

Yao Jun and Li Yuwen who heard the story realized who the travelers were.

“Black Skull Bandits!” Yao Jun muttered.

Not until there, the woman kept telling me everything that happened that night. The men who were killed for trying to protect their families, the girls and women who were abused and enslaved, until the little boy who whipped overnight was full.

In the morning all the black skull bandits left the village with all the valuables as well as the women and girls who were enslaved last night, and leaving only the women they considered ugly as well as the children they tortured before.

Yao Jun who heard the whole story then clenched his hands tightly, the anger inside him was ignited so much and wanted to leave the village immediately to look for the black skull bandits to be massacred until there was nothing left.

‘In my first life this group of black skull bandits will be massacred by the empire, but it seems better to be eradicated from the beginning so that there will be no more similar events in the future,’ Inner Li Yuwen.

Feeling quite aware of what was really going on, Yao Jun asked the tavern owner's woman where the bandits were going.

“If I don't see wrong, they go north!”

Yao Jun who heard that became reminded of his mission which also went towards the north where the battle in Zhao city took place.

‘So the group of black skulls will be our opponents later, good!’ Yao Jun smiled widely behind his mask, his killing intent even slightly escaping from his body.

Li Yuwen coughed softly as he felt the killing intent of his teacher.

Yao Jun who listened to Li Yuwen's words then scratched his non-itchy head, “You were right Wen’.

After finishing with everything, Yao Jun bailed to the tavern owner's woman and wanted to immediately go to Zhao city to eradicate the group of black skulls.

“Please save my daughter, I don't want my daughter to also die like my husband!”

“Who is your daughter's name mistress?” Yao Jun tried to calm down.

“Lanlan! My daughter's name is Lanlan!”

“Alright, take it easy as we will save all the captives.”

Yao Jun and Li Yuwen then left the village and headed back to where the sect disciples had gathered.

Arriving there Yao Jun told him what had really happened, not long after the sect disciples who heard the story carefully then ignited the same emotions as Yao Jun, not long after, they asked Yao Jun to return to travel as quickly as possible because he could not stand what the group of black skulls did.

The journey continued but several times faster than before, plus the previous six hours of travel now increased to ten hours of continuous non-stop running.

“Big master, the black skull bandits group continue to attack our last line of defense!”

“Great master we must immediately evacuate the women and children go out of town, we must not continue to settle here!”

There were some people wearing the armor of a soldier talking towards a middle-aged man sitting on a chair that had a dragon-shaped carving.

Because it was urged to evacuate the residents, the man called the great master then opened his voice.

“Alright, some of you immediately let the ordinary citizens head out of town as far as possible, and make sure your movements are not known by the group of black skulls!”

“Good!” Answer some of the soldiers there.

Seeing that his partner was out of the room, one of the soldiers asked the man called the great master.

“Large master, are reinforcements really coming?”

“I .. I don't know, but let's just believe what the blood golden warrior said a few days ago.”

In the midst of the conversation, there was a knock on the door, and not long after a beautiful woman who looked to be in her thirties entered the room and walked towards the big master.

“My husband what will we do?”

“Xu’er what are you doing here? Why don't you take refuge with the others?”

The man who was sitting then stood to see the woman who had just entered was the person he knew very well, the woman was his wife.

“Why? Can't I stay here with you?” The woman replied.
