Chapter 68 The City Of Warriors Part 4

The cold wind blew through Baishui, and he felt the biting cold flow down his skin, and every time the wind blew, the chill penetrated deep into his skin. Although he is a southerner, he also enjoys the northern winter very much, but the winter where his home is located has harsh winter storms, but the most violent and stormy winter is still not as cold as the wind blowing around him now.

Although he walked all day looking for Jiāo, the soles of his feet hurt, but the discomfort of the soles of his feet did not stop him. Looking at the two roads in front of him, Baishui looked for traces of Jiāo, but looking at the ground, there seemed to be no traces. Frankly speaking, if Jiāo was dragged all the way along this path from the forest line, there should be traces of tailing, but Baishui didn't see any.

Even when Bailong had taken away the source of life and divine power of Baishui, Baishui, who was born as a mythical creature, still has a strong sense of danger when danger is approaching. Baishui rolled his eyes coldly and looked left and right at the tall grass fluttering in the wind in front of him. He raised his head, sniffed the air a few times, and walked down the path to the left.

Baishui walked cautiously along the road to the depths of the mountain, and Jiāo's scent became more and more intense. The grass on the side of the road rustled, as if there were many people walking beside Baishui, but he didn't seem to care, because in his heart, he only wanted to find Jiāo.

Although Jiāo can be gally at times, Jiāo has lived with Baishui for hundreds of years. In a sense, even though he is the master and Jiāo is the servant, he considers Jiāo as his younger sister.

When the rustling sound around Baishui became louder, Baishui was not afraid, because he knew that even without his power, those who chased him from the forest line would probably know who he was, so they dared not make a move. He knew that in this world, not many creatures, goblins, and spirits were willing to act against his race, unless they were sure that they would win if they fought against him.

When Baishui stood at the foot of the mountain, staring at the tall peaks. He looked around and found a small cave. Baishui heard someone's faint breathing in the dark cave. Fearing that the person in the cave might be Jiāo, Baishui walked quickly towards the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, many vines emerged from the ground, quickly weaving, and covering the entrance of the cave. Baishui slowly reaches for Yul's sword.

"Go back." A voice suddenly sounded around Baishui.

"Give me back what you stole from me," Baishui demanded. "That's the only way I'll go back."

"GO BACK!" A deep shout sounded from the cave. "GO BACK!"

Baishui has already made up his mind, he will not go back without taking Jiāo with him. "Give me back what you stole from me," he said, sheathing Yul's sword.

"Go back!" An angry voice roared, and many vines shot out from the ground, flying straight towards Baishui.

Baishui swung Yul's sword left and right, and cut down the incoming vines one by one, but the endless vines continued to attack Baishui. Baishui defended himself desperately, Baishui snorted, "If you dare to hurt my maidservant, I will burn your mountain." He did a few somersaults, avoided the impact of the vines, and landed on the ground several feet away from the entrance of the cave. Two vines sprang out from the ground and quickly entangled Baishui's ankles. The other vines grabbed Baiushui's left hand and pulled Baishui's hand to the ground.

Baishui quickly swung Yul's sword, cut off the vine in his left hand, and another vine flashed towards Baishui, knocking him down a few yards away from the entrance of the cave. At this time, Baishui was exhausted. Since he became mortal, his movements have been slower than usual.

Baishui was panting, his face was covered with sweat, and he was exhausted. Seeing more vines emerge from the ground and continue to block the entrance of the cave, Baishui still did not give up.

"Go back!" The roar became more and more angry as more and more vines flew towards Baishui. "Go back!"

The vines dragged Baishui all the way back to the forest line. He got up slowly, and rushed through the bushes again, unexpectedly, the road was completely different from the one just now. Baishui looked around, feeling a little worried. He wanted to smell Jiāo's scent when he heard a man shouting not far from where he was standing. "Men, hold your ground!" Baishui thought it was Hajime and the others, and hurriedly ran to the right where the shout came from.

Passing through the small bushes and tall grass, Lixin, Kexin and the others were also thinking about which direction to go.

Kexin said, " Should we wait until morning? Weeds are overgrown, and it's hard for us to know which way the other people have gone."

Lixin looked at his men and found that they were also exhausted, so he said, "Let's go over there and set up camp." He pointed to some trees. Lixin led twenty people towards the trees.

Kexin took two steps forward and found that her scabbard was gone. She turned and ordered the rest of the people to help her find her scabbard in the dark.

Kexin said madly, " It should be over there, I happened to be over there." She walked towards the men who were still searching for her scabbard. "When you find it bring it over to me." She turned around madly only to see the darkness in front of her. "Elder brother!" She looked back at the men. She grabbed onto one of the man's arms and pointed ahead with her finger. "Did you see elder brother and the others?"

The man shakes his head. "I didn't see Lord Lixin and the others," he said.

One of the men pushed aside the weeds, saw the scabbard of Kexin, as only to see tiny green vines rising rapidly from the ground, forming a woman's structure. The green vine woman's hand turned into an axe, and chopped down towards the man's head, killing the man immediately.

The vine woman swung the ax and slashed at another man who was standing not far from the dead. The blow sent the man flying into a collision with three other men.

Kexin and the others were stunned by what they had just witnessed. Everyone looked at the vine woman in horror. The vine woman's left hand started to turn into a bow, and the fingers of her right hand started to turn into arrows. She moved herself closer to Kexin and her men and started shooting at them.

Kexin and her men start fleeing behind a tree. Kexin's men began to fall dead one by one, and multiple arrows were shot from left and right.

Kexin was trembling so much that she couldn't even hold the sword, and the sword fell to her feet. She stood quietly in the dark woods alone, controlling her breathing, trying not to breathe too fast or too hard, so as not to give away her hiding place.

The green vine woman slowly climbed down from the branches, and attacked Kexin who was still avoiding the enemy unknowingly.

When Lixin turned around, he could no longer see Kexin or the others he had brought. The only people who remained with him were the twenty men who were supposed to set up camp.

Lixin shouted, "Kexin!" There was no other voice, only his voice echoed back at him. He surveyed the darkness. "Where, are they?"

The last man who followed Lixin to the trees said, "Lady Kexin is behind me, she is looking for her scabbard with others."

"They can't all disappear," said another.

Lixin sighed worriedly and said, "Then where are they? They won't get lost, because they are only a few steps away from us."

Lixin felt something rushing towards him, turned around quickly, and waved the torch on the man in the ground, who appeared to have had his throat slit. When Lixin felt a rushing force again, he quickly turned around and waved the torch at the thing rushing towards him.

"Ah...!" a loud cry.

"Ah…!" a loud scream.

Lixin and the others turned around quickly enough and saw a black shadow holding a sword rushing towards the bushes. Immediately afterwards, four more people fell to the ground clutching their necks, bleeding from their mouths and noses.

Lixin said, "It's afraid of fire. Circle formation."

Five people surrounded Lixin, and ten people surrounded five people, holding torches in their left hands and swords in their right hands.

Five figures appeared behind the tree, with their hands in the shape of double long swords. The shadows have only the upper body. Their lower bodies are black smoke. The shadow swordsmen rushed towards Lixin and his men.

Lixin gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and shouted, "Men! Hold your ground!"
