Peerless Young Master

Chapter 63 Death in the Desert

It was the middle of winter, and the mountain road was covered with snow, like a silver dragon winding through the silent forest.

The cold wind was howling, blowing up bursts of snowflakes that hit my face like a knife. The branches were covered with crystal clear icicles, and occasionally there was a "crackling" sound, which was the snow falling under the weight.

On the winding mountain road and the white snow-covered road, footprints are clearly visible. At the end of the footprints, there is a group of people bending over, holding crutches made of wooden sticks, and walking hard.

These people were wrapped tightly in thick cotton-padded clothes, with their hats pulled down, revealing only a pair of eyes. They were none other than the people from Baiyun Village.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air in the distance. An arrow pierced through the crowd and stuck in the tree trunk, causing the snow on the leaves to fall off.

This was clearly a sneak attack.

However, the people in Baiyun Village acted as if they had not seen anything and continued to work hard, striving to get down the mountain as soon as possible and escape from the cruel Black Dragon Mountain.

Whoosh!

Another arrow hit one of the team members less than a foot away from his feet, startling him and causing him to scream.

Immediately afterwards, there were too many arrows like this, and almost every arrow passed by the bodies of these people. If they were slightly off target, they would hit the people from Baiyun Village.

Although the arrows did not hit anyone, they effectively slowed down the people's progress. If this continued, it would be difficult to leave Black Dragon Mountain even before dark.

Xiao Xuan, who was walking at the back, had a very ugly expression on his face. He looked around, trying to find the archer hiding among them, but unfortunately there were too many obstructions and he couldn't see anything at all.

She quickly walked to the front of the team and whispered, "Dad, these people are obviously deliberately interfering with us. They don't want us to walk too fast. If this goes on, I'm afraid we won't be able to get down the mountain before dark."

At the beginning, everyone was very cautious and hid behind trees to avoid being ambushed and shot.

But after a long time, they found that the people in the dark did not want to shoot them, but to slow down their pace.

It goes without saying that these people are waiting for the people from Heiya to appear.

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Yidao both knew it, but they didn't dare to gamble and could only walk slowly.

Because they couldn't guarantee that the people in the dark would just stop them. What if they shot them?

Because of this, the team moved very slowly and needed to be on guard against the archers lying in ambush all around.

"There's nothing we can do. These people are hiding in the dark. They run away after shooting. Even if we want to kill them, we can't do it."

At first, Xiao Yidao also wanted to kill these people who only knew how to attack secretly, but after killing a few of them, these people also learned their lesson.

After shooting an arrow, he would move to another place.

This made it impossible for him to catch all these people in one fell swoop.

Moreover, he didn't know where the people from Heiya were, and whether they would suddenly appear, which made him afraid to leave the team easily.

"Hold on a little longer, Dad remembers there seems to be a place to rest ahead." A trace of sadness appeared on Xiao Yidao's brow.

Li Xuan walked in the middle of the team, wrapped tightly, holding a stick in his hand, with frost on his eyelashes, and every breath he exhaled turned into a cloud of white mist.

The road was difficult to walk on to begin with, and I didn't dare take big steps. Furthermore, someone was shooting arrows in secret to distract my mind, so I walked for a long time but didn't go very far.

This made him very annoyed and frustrated. He wanted to stop and kill those people who shot arrows at him from the dark, but he couldn't find any trace of them.

Just ignore the other person.

When the arrow really comes, even if you know it won't hit you, you will still dodge subconsciously.

No one dares to risk his life.

This made him very worried. In order to ensure that everyone could leave alive, the route they chose was flat but remote, and what if they couldn't get through in time.

After dark, life becomes even more difficult.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly found that the team had stopped. This made him frown, tilt his head to look over, and his heart was shocked.

There were no less than thirty black-clad guards standing in front of them. It turned out that they were the people from Heiya who had caught up with them and were waiting for them here.

He was dressed in black, with a yellow fan in his hands behind his back. He looked at the dead people in front of him, his eyes fell on Xiao Yidao, and he spoke calmly:

"It was you who killed Hei San and slaughtered the Black Guards."

Xiao Yidao narrowed his eyes slightly. The number of people coming this time was three times that of the last time. It seemed that they were serious about it.

The person who was speaking had a strong aura, and was a middle-level human being.

If it were just that, it would just be a matter of one knife.

"You and Damo will protect the others later. Leave these people to Dad," Xiao Yidao said in a low voice.

Xiao Xuan was worried: "Dad, can you handle so many people? That man looks quite strong. How about we kill them together and leave here quickly."

"There are other people nearby. If you and I rush out, I'm afraid the desert alone won't be able to protect the others."

Killing is not the most important thing. What is important is to protect the people in the village from harm.

"Okay, then Dad, you have to be careful." Xiao Xuan took a deep breath, knowing that the situation was serious.

Seeing that he was being ignored, Huang Shan's eyes suddenly became sinister, and a dark light flashed in his eyes, and his words were filled with the smell of blood:

“In this mountain, it is not easy to have the strength of the middle level of the human realm; but if you want to fight against Heiya, you are still far from enough;

Originally, I could have just killed you and that would have been the end of it, but you dared to massacre the Black Guards, and you deserve to be put to death.

This time I will personally take action and tear you into pieces. I will hang your heads in front of the Black Cliff Gate, letting everyone know what the consequences will be if you go against the Black Cliff."

After saying that, he waved his hand and all the black-clad guards behind him rushed forward.

The gleaming blades shone coldly in the dim sunlight. They were well-trained, their steps were in step, and their eyes were filled with strong murderous intent.

The black guards took action and left no one alive!

Xiao Yidao's eyes flashed, and he drew the long sword from his waist. The sword light was like a dragon, and he instantly clashed with the black-clad guards who were rushing in the front.

With one strike, a black-clad guard was killed, and his blood melted the white snow, emitting billowing hot steam.

Huang Shan still stood still, like a general supporting the battle, as if the killing of these black-clad guards was nothing to him.

"Hei Yi, go play with him. Hei Er, Hei Liu, go kill those bastards."

After receiving the order, a black-clad guard with eyes as sharp as a wolf, holding a thin knife in his hand, and wearing only a thin outer shirt rushed towards Xiao Yidao.

This person is Hei Yi, the strongest Black Guard, the strongest in the lower level of the human realm, and can fight on equal terms with the middle level of the human realm.

He was eager to fight and wanted to experience the power of the middle-level masters in the human realm.

On the other side, Hei Er and Hei Liu received orders to change their targets and massacre everyone in Baiyun Village.

Xiao Xuan rushed forward with a nimble figure. The long sword in his hand was like silver lightning, cutting through the cold air, and fighting with Hei Er and Hei Liu.

"Middle Grade in the Human Realm"

"Be careful, he's very strong, don't be careless"

As the saying goes, an expert will know if something is there as soon as he takes action.

They were shocked that a kid who was not even as old as them could have such powerful strength.

"You go and kill them. This guy is very powerful, so we will hold him back," Hei Er said.

After receiving the order, three more guards in black came and rushed towards the others.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Xuan became anxious and wanted to go over to stop them.

But she was tightly entangled by Hei Er and Hei Liu, and could not free her hands at all.

Although she is stronger than the other two, her fighting skills are far behind theirs.

"Brother Xuan, just focus on the battle, I'll take care of this." Da Mo saw the dilemma and stood up with a wooden stick in his hand, allowing Xiao Xuan to focus on killing the enemy.

Soon, Da Mo started fighting with the three black-clad guards.

Although his strength was only at the lower level of the human realm, the moves he learned were all taught by Xiao Yida, which were far superior to those of the Black Guards. For a while, he was able to fight the three of them on equal terms.

Everyone in Baiyun Village gathered together and hid. Li Xuan looked at the people fighting and became anxious.

The three most capable fighters were all entangled at this moment, but there was still one opponent who had not made a move.

The middle-aged man, with his hands behind his back and a calm demeanor, must be extremely powerful.

Hei Er held a broadsword in his hand, and every swing of his sword was accompanied by the sound of whistling wind, with great force and momentum;

Hei Liu, on the other hand, was agile and ghostly, with the short knife in his hand flashing with cold light, and he focused on attacking Xiao Xuan's vital points.

When the two men changed their shapes, Hei Er gave Hei Liu a look, and Hei Liu showed a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth.

"go to hell"

Hei Er shouted loudly and swung the big knife in his hand suddenly, bringing up an extremely sharp knife wind, as if it could split the air in two.

Xiao Xuan's eyes narrowed. It was obvious that the other party was going to fight to the death, so she must not be careless.

After fighting for so long, she also knew that the opponent was very strong, much stronger than those village chiefs.

At the same time, Hei Liu turned around and attacked towards the desert.

"Be careful"

Li Xuan roared.

"what"

The dagger pierced into Da Mo's back, blood splattered, and the sudden sneak attack instantly made Da Mo lose his fighting ability;

At this moment, the three black-clad guards who were fighting with him seized the opportunity, and with three swords, they stabbed Damao in the chest, arm, and thigh. Blood spurted out like a fountain, staining his clothes red.

Da Mo's face was distorted by severe pain and he fell to the ground. Blood flowed from the wound into the ground, staining it red.

"Brother Desert"

Li Xuan roared and rushed out, holding the wooden stick tightly and trying to repel the black-clad guards, but his strength was too weak, as he had only learned boxing techniques to strengthen his body.

Facing the Black Guards, they are no match at all.

The opponent just turned sideways to avoid the stick and kicked him away.

"Uncle Desert"

Xiao Xuan's eyes were moist, and the blood on the ground was like a sword piercing her heart. She roared, swung the sword backhand, and the tip of the sword collided with the back of the knife, making a loud "clang" sound.

Sparks flew, Hei Er's body shook and he stepped back.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Xuan leaped back, a cold light flashed, and his sword moves were filled with endless anger, instantly killing the three black-clad guards.

She squatted on the ground, holding Damo, tears rolling down her eyes: "Uncle Damo, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me."

Li Xuan also rolled and crawled, stretched out his hand to stop the bleeding wound, his eyes moist: "Brother Damo, don't sleep, don't sleep, we agreed to go back together;

Go down the mountain and live your own life. Didn’t you say you wanted to live a stable life?

As long as we go down the mountain, we can live a stable life without having to wander around.

Brother Damo, wake up!

Da Mo's face was as pale as paper, his lips moved slightly, but he was too weak to speak. He tried to focus his eyes, looking at Xiao Xuan, then at Li Xuan.

He stretched out his hand, blood dripping onto the ground. He grabbed Xiao Xuan's hand, then grabbed Li Xuan's hand, put their hands together heavily, and smiled.

As soon as the corner of his mouth cracked, a large amount of blood gushed out. The big hand covered with cracks and calluses drooped down weakly, closed his eyes, fell into Xiao Xuan's arms, and stopped breathing.

"Uncle Desert"

"Brother Desert"

The two of them burst into tears, heartbroken.

Xiao Yidao turned around and looked at the dead Da Mo. A trace of sadness appeared in his eyes, and then, unprecedented anger and murderous intent filled his eyes.

I didn't want to kill anyone, but you forced me to do so.

At this moment, the snowflakes around Xiao Yidao began to float upwards and then spun rapidly. The long sword in his hand was shaking, making a crisp sound.

He loosened his hand, but the knife remained suspended in the air. Then he began to circulate his internal energy, and the powerful internal energy instantly gushed out of his body like a tide.

He swung his hand, pointing the tip of the knife at the man in black in front of him. In almost the blink of an eye, the long knife disappeared, in less than five seconds.

The long sword appeared in Xiao Yidao's hand again, and the blade was blood red, as if it had just been taken out of a pool of blood.

puff!

puff!

The black-clad guards fell one after another.

All the black guards were killed, even Hei Yi, who was known as the strongest lower-level human, fell to the ground helplessly, his legs twitching and his eyes wide open.

Until his death, he didn't understand why he died.

"You...you...control the sword with your Qi, you are a master of the Earth Realm."

This scene had already frightened Huang Shan silly. He stretched out a trembling finger and pointed at Xiao Yidao, his eyes full of fear and his teeth chattering.

At this moment, he was no longer the deacon who controlled life and death, but an ant that was frightened and terrified.

He didn't understand why the other party was a powerful Earth Realm expert.

How could there be a powerful Earth Realm expert in Black Dragon Mountain?

Why would a strong man from the Earth Realm stay in this remote place and not reveal his identity even if he was being hunted by them?

If the other party revealed his strength at the beginning, he would not dare to take action even if he had a hundred times the courage.

The peak of the human realm is the strongest in Black Dragon Mountain, not to mention the masters of the earth realm.

"Sir, this is a misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding..."

However, the only answer he got was a cold gleam.

With one strike of the knife, the head fell off.

Even he himself didn't see how the other party drew his sword, he only saw a bright light...

boom!

A headless body fell.

To date, the Black Guards have been completely wiped out.

Xiao Yidao dodged and appeared in the desert in an instant. He stretched out his finger and placed it on the other person's philtrum, but he was no longer breathing.

The desert is dead.

"Dad, Uncle Damao is dead." Xiao Xuan burst into tears. The man who watched her grow up just left her like that.

"Dad knows. Dad has killed them and avenged Damo." Xiao Yidao said in a heavy tone. Damo's death was also a blow to him.

"It's getting late, we should leave"

Li Xuan's head felt dizzy and his thoughts were in chaos. He spread out his hands and looked at the blood on his palms. It seemed as if a face was reflected there, smiling at him.

He recalled every little detail about Brother Damo. On Black Dragon Mountain, Damo had been sincere to him, caring about whether he ate well, slept well, and if he needed anything...

But now, there is nothing.

His nose felt sore, and a huge rage was building up in his chest, as if it was about to burst into the sky. In his two lifetimes, he had never been so angry: "I want to avenge Brother Damao."

Li Xuan's eyes burst into an intense look, extremely hot and firmer than ever before, and he said word by word: "I will destroy Heiya and avenge Brother Damao."

Xiao Xuan also echoed: "Yes, avenge Uncle Damao and kill all the Black Guards."

The two men's determination for revenge was so strong that it was like a burning flame, illuminating the cold snow around them.

Xiao Yidao frowned, but he didn't say anything. He was also very angry. As a master of the Earth Realm, when had he been humiliated like this by a group of ants?

"Okay, then let's go back and destroy Black Cliff."

Damn Black Cliff, it’s just a matter of one knife.
