Moonlight Demon Tiger (7)

In the middle of the night...

"Xiu..." a very soft sound comes from a flute is made.

"Xiu... Xiu!" a two tones sound quickly came back as a reply. But this secretive method to deliver a report has been caught by Yang Guang and Tian Peng!

Tian Peng immediately appeared behind the traitor, who is the first one to suggest that they move and search for other groups!

"Are you trying to kill me? Guys! Tian Peng is trying to kill me in the middle of the night!" he tried to cause havoc to save his skin in this dangerous situation.

His shout alarmed those nearby. People quickly gathered at this location after they got attracted by the uproar.

"Help me! Tian Peng is trying to kill me!" he still continues to act. Unfortunately, his professional action failed to get the masses to vouch for his safety.

Tian Peng charged in front and gave him a slap, throwing his face down to the ground using that force. He continues by putting one of his feet on the leader's back and rummages his pocket for the flute.

"Polished Jade Tower uses a special wood erhu to deliver messages. Why are you using the method practiced by Ten Thousand Pills Sect?" Tian Peng placed some pressure on his leg as he asked.

"I... I... I forget! Don't kill me!"

"Too late." Tian Peng put in a little more Soul Qi, and his feet break the bones inside this leader's body. The spine is broken first, as the pressure went to the ribcage and pierced through his lungs and heart.

And soon, Yang Guang returned with two corpses that belonged to the Pill-Servant. One of them is still holding the same flute searched from the leader's pocket.

"Brother Tian, nobody managed to leave. There's one more corpse hidden behind the thick bushes." Yang Guang throws the two corpses on the ground.

"Go back to sleep, everyone. We'll rest until tomorrow afternoon." Tian Peng waved his hands as he speaks. The others finally left, since there's nothing else to watch.

"Brother Tian, how did you notice his betrayal?" Yang Guang asked. After he checked the two corpses for anything precious, Yang Guang buried the two into a hole without a gravestone.

"I saw him giving out some pills before you come to the camp. At first, I thought that he's acting nice because he's a senior like me, but after I checked with the other book-servants, I found out that my opinion about him is wrong."

"The medicine he gave to our fellow brothers are poisoned. I had to waste five bottles of antidote from finding out about this. Following his act tonight, I've decided to dispose of him before he did anything else to harm our group." Tian Peng answered.

"Brother's perception is ten times better than Yang Guang's understanding. I believe brother's action is all for the safety of our group." Yang Guang cupped his hand and bow at Tian Peng.

...

A similar incident happened in Emerald Serpent Swamp.

People from two factions fought against each other in a deadly battle, with corpses literally littered on the ground waiting for Cultivation Beast to feast. The number of death is two times higher than how it was in Thousand Boar Forest.

...

Meanwhile, inside the Earth Fort.

"What did you say? The Moonlight Demon Tiger cannot be found? Where can a tiger five meters long and three meters tall hide?" Tian Peng's father is furious at his subordinate's report.

"Quickly search! The Demon Tiger Mountain is connected with the side of Thousand Boar Mountain. If the Cultivation Beast uses that way as a shortcut to enter the city, everything will be too late!"

...

"Attack! Don't let them enter the Inner Region!" the pill-servants finally here to stop them from leaving. Their decision to move into the Inner Region eventually proved to be correct. The Ten Thousand Pills Sect is secretly gathering their people to attack them while they're in a defensive stance.

Burdened by fellow injured members, the book-servants is going to be forced to stay there while suffering their constant attack. Now, they had to come up with a new plan if they wished to stop Tian Peng's group from leaving.

"Brother Yang, I'll come back after everyone entered. Hold on." Tian Peng left after he finished his sentence, leaving Yang Guang and fifteen able book-servants to help him hold the opponents here.

"Everyone, please follow my order." Yang Guang said.

"Yes! Brother Yang!" after the earlier performance and how easy Yang Guang slaughtered three pill-servants last night, everyone is fully obedient to him and his words.

"Help me to keep those 4th Layer cultivator busy. I'll take care of the weaker ones." Yang Guang's order turned their opinion at him entirely.

As the leader of these fifteen people, how can he target the weaklings while handling the strong one to them? But orders are orders, they dare not to hesitate and quickly attack with all their might.

Meanwhile, Yang Guang acted like a mass murderer. Each slap and punch of his is capable of taking the life of his weaker opponents. With plenty of experience in the killing, Yang Guang can be said to be almost reaching the grade of a veteran killer.

"Brother Yang!" one of the fifteen members started to feel the pressure against a cultivator one level above him. The others are feeling the same weight as well, but struggling better than he does.

But Yang Guang did not come to his help. There are a few more opponents of the lower level needed to be handled before he helped them.

"Brother Yang!" he received a kick. Falling down onto the ground, his opponent took his own sweet time to swing his sword twice before he had the intention to stab this poor book-servant.

"Corruption Theory!" Yang Guang nicely came into rescue. That attack tosses the pill-servant aside for more than five meters.

"Help them after you take the pill. Don't get lazy." Yang Guang patted the book-servant's back before chases his opponent. The book-servant takes a quick glance around him, only to notice that Yang Guang had killed more than twenty pill-servants before he came to help.

"I'm glad... I'm not his enemy..." the book-servant chose the nearest guy to attack, and group up to attack alongside with another member.

"You dare to slaughter so many of our people! The Ten Thousand!" the pill-servant that got thrown aside by Yang Guang managed to stand up on one knee. Looking around him, the sight of corpses littered everywhere shocks him.

But before he finished his sentence, Yang Guang already gave him a slap on the back of his skull.
