The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 13 Under Siege

"Senior Long, the Xia family and the Chen family have always been on good terms, especially since my father once saved your life. Why would the Chen family want to help the evildoers today and work with the Ouyang family to force our Xia family into a dead end?" Xia Meitao asked, looking directly at Chen Long, the head of the Chen family.

Hearing these words, Chen Long's face turned red and he didn't know how to respond.

Seeing Chen Long's hesitation, Xia Meitao suddenly felt a glimmer of hope, and he struck while the iron was hot, persuading him: "Senior Long, Ouyang Duan is a bully who is robbing people by trickery! Why don't you stop now? I think you are confused for a moment, and you have a history with my father, so how about just pretending that this matter never happened?"

When Ouyang Duan saw that the situation was not good, he was immediately startled. Although the Ouyang family was the strongest among the three families, there were only three demon hunters in their family present. If old man Chen Long fled, he would not be sure of defeating Xia Meitao and Fang Zhiyuan, especially since Fang Zhiyuan was a master of earth-based magic that could attack and defend, which was really tricky.

He hurriedly interrupted Xia Meitao and said to Chen Long: "Senior Long, your grandson has completed the awakening of his bloodline at the age of twelve. Don't you want to help him lay a foundation? As I said before, I don't want an inch of the Xia family's territory. Our Ouyang family only wants that woman."

Hearing this, the hesitation on Chen Long's face disappeared. He and Chen Hu took attacking stances and said no more words.

Xia Meitao looked at Chen Long's performance, and the only hope in his heart was extinguished. At this point, he finally understood that the Ouyang family had never thought of letting him go from the beginning. Since they had joined forces with the Chen family, they wanted not only his daughter, but also the entire Xia family!

"Oh no! Oh no!" At this moment, two young men suddenly rushed in from the door. They both looked panicked and shouted breathlessly. They were Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi.

But when Xiao Zhu saw many strangers standing in the courtyard and the atmosphere was tense, he was so surprised that he stood there speechless.

"Ah!" Xia Shi saw many people from the Xia family lying in a pool of blood, and she was so scared that she hugged Xiao Zhu's arm.

Xiao Zhu hurriedly supported Xia Shi. Seeing the situation on the field, he had already understood the general situation. But he knew that there were more important things at the moment, so he hurriedly said, "Seniors, something bad has happened. A monster has rushed into Floating Light Town!"

Xiao Zhu's words caused a stir in the crowd. Just as everyone was looking at each other in bewilderment, Ouyang Duan suddenly snorted and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If the monsters entered the town, how could the patrols on the city wall not have any warning? How could the town be so peaceful now? Do you think you can get away with this trick?"

Hearing Ouyang Duan's words, the other people's faces relaxed. Although Ouyang Mingyue and Ouyang Mingque were brothers, their personalities were completely different. Ouyang Mingyue had been intelligent since childhood, and he practiced very hard. He had hunted a first-level monster alone. He looked at Xiao Zhu, who was younger than him, with interest and said, "I was wondering why the Xia family leader was so tough recently. It turns out that the Xia family has a young monster hunter."

Everyone's eyes were turned to Xiao Zhu, which made Xiao Zhu feel a strong pressure.

Ouyang Duan knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer, so he made arrangements in an orderly manner: "Senior Long, Brother Hu, this Fang Zhiyuan has the same earth bloodline as you two, so let you two deal with him. I will go and meet Sect Master Xia. As for this young man, Brother Hong will deal with him! Mingyue, Miss Xia is left to you."

At this time, Chen Long and Chen Hu each had a huge tiger-head knife in their hands. Both father and son had awakened earth bloodline and were proficient in the same martial arts. Over the years, they had formed a very tacit cooperation. Immediately, the two rushed towards Fang Zhiyuan from the left and right.

"Shi'er, Xiaozhu, hurry up!" Xia Meitao never expected that the two would come back after only a short while, and he didn't have time to investigate Xiaozhu's story about the monsters invading the town. In the current situation, it would be better for the two to escape quickly.

At this time, Ouyang Hong and Ouyang Mingyue had already rushed towards Xiao Zhu and the others. Xiao Zhu knew that he must not let Xia Shi fall into their hands, so he grabbed Xia Shi's hand, jumped over the courtyard wall and ran outside.

At the moment when Xiao Zhu climbed over the courtyard wall, Xia Meitao suddenly threw out an object, and the object chased Xiao Zhu's figure. Xiao Zhu grabbed the object and then disappeared behind the courtyard wall.

"Chase!" Ouyang Hong and Ouyang Mingyue were about to jump over the wall when they suddenly felt their feet were restrained. They looked down and saw two vines growing on the ground, tightly binding their calves. This was Xia Meitao's vine technique.

"A mere trifle!" Ouyang Hong sneered and threw out two fireballs. The vines began to burn. The two men broke free from their restraints in an instant and chased in the direction Xiao Zhu and the other man fled.

Xia Meitao wanted to attack again, but was blocked by Ouyang Duan.

"Your opponent is me!" Ouyang Duan pointed at Xia Meitao with the burning sword in his hand.

Xiao Zhu, who had already escaped from the Xia family, was now running towards the center of the city. However, he had to pull Xia Shi with him, and was also worried that the monsters that had sneaked into Fuguang Town might suddenly appear, so he was not running fast, and was gradually caught up by Ouyang Hong and the others.

Xiao Zhu realized that if he continued to run away, he would be caught up sooner or later, so he began to plan how to meet the enemy.

He glanced at Xia Shi who was standing beside him. She had a pale face and messy hair. It was obvious that she was running out of energy. He said, "Shi'er, step behind me and don't leave me too far. I'll take care of these two people."

"Yeah!" Xia Shi nodded worriedly. She also saw the current situation clearly. Although she was very worried about Xiao Zhu, she couldn't think of a better way.

Xiao Zhu stopped running, and jumped onto a high roof. He took out the magic shadow bow from his back, drew the bow and put an arrow on it. The runes on the bow all lit up, and a swift arrow shot towards Ouyang Hongfei who was chasing him. This was the first time Xiao Zhu used the magic shadow bow, and its power was even stronger than he expected. The arrow was so fast under the blessing of the runes that only a shadow could be seen.

Ouyang Hong, who was chasing forward, suddenly saw an arrow flying towards him. His face changed suddenly, but the arrow was too fast for him to dodge, so he hastily raised the sword in his hand to block it in front of him.

"Dang!" The long sword trembled violently, and he was pushed back five or six steps by the impact force before he finally dissipated the force.

"Magic Shadow Bow!" A cold sweat ran down Ouyang Hong's forehead.

Of course he recognized this bow. He was still young when Xia Lieyang, the old patriarch of the Xia family, was alive. However, he had heard of the power of this bow. Countless monsters were killed by the power of this bow. However, he did not expect that Xia Meitao would actually hand it over to such a junior.

Fortunately, this junior's cultivation was not deep, and the arrow he just shot probably could not even exert 30% of the power of this bow. If Xia Lieyang held the bow, even if he had blocked the arrow with his sword just now, the power of the arrow would be enough to break the sword and pierce his chest.

At the moment when Ouyang Hong was stopped by the arrow, Ouyang Mingyue had already approached Xiao Zhu. He pointed the long sword in his hand at Xiao Zhu's throat, trying to take his life with one blow.

But when the long sword was about one meter away from Xiao Zhu, a wall of earth suddenly appeared between the two of them, and the sword was blocked by the wall. Because the height of the wall exceeded a person's height, Ouyang Mingyue lost sight of Xiao Zhu for a moment.

The next moment, the earth wall suddenly collapsed, and Xiao Zhu had already rushed in front of Ouyang Mingyue. He held a short sword that was neither copper nor iron, and stabbed it towards Ouyang Mingyue's chest!

Because the distance was too close, Ouyang Mingyue could no longer dodge. He could only twist his body with difficulty and pierce Ouyang Mingyue's right shoulder with the dagger.

Suddenly Ouyang Mingyue felt a sharp pain in his right arm and was unable to hold the sword in his hand. The sword fell to the ground with a clang.
