Chapter 389 Mysterious Arrow
Chapter 389 Mysterious Arrow
On the other side, Hu Qing stood at the edge of the battlefield, glancing coldly at the remaining orc soldiers.
Seeing that the ratman was restrained, these low-level orcs rushed towards him without knowing the danger, making meaningless roars.
"Noisy."
Hu Qing frowned slightly, raised his hand and waved it, and an invisible sword energy swept out.
"Puff puff--"
Wherever the sword energy passed, orcs fell like wheat being cut, and the ground was instantly dyed red with blood.
Hu Qing didn't even move, as if he was just brushing off the dust on his sleeves.
In a corner, Xiao Zi was pressing the fox orc's head with his claws, crushing it hard against the stone wall.
The fox orc's face was covered in blood, and his originally flattering expression had long since become distorted. A hoarse plea for mercy emanated from his throat:
"Grandpa Long, please spare my life... I won't dare to talk nonsense again..."
The little purple dragon's eyes were cold, and its claws lightly scratched the fox orc's cheek, leaving a blood mark.
It was burning with rage at the moment - this bastard not only slandered it for stealing, but also dared to spread rumors that it had robbed some "little pink"?
It's an insult to Longge!
"Ouch!" Xiao Zi slapped the fox orc with a claw, and the fox orc's screams stopped abruptly.
........................
A fierce battle is raging in the mountains and forests.
The giant sword in Gu Yang's hand flew around, and every strike was accompanied by a fierce gust of wind, forcing the ratmen to retreat again and again.
The rat man was now covered in scars, his yellow robe was torn, and his green bean-sized eyes were filled with fear.
He originally thought that the other party was just an ordinary cultivator, but he never expected him to be so troublesome!
"Damn it! How can this human be so strong?!" The rat man cursed in his heart, his blood surging in his body, and every time he blocked, his arms became numb.
He gritted his teeth and held on, but Gu Yang's attack became more and more fierce, and his sword was as powerful as a storm, leaving him no chance to breathe.
"boom!"
Another heavy blow came, and the rat man hastily raised his claws to block it, but was still shaken back by the huge force. He felt a dull pain in his chest and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
He glanced around and found that his men had already been dealt with by Xiao Zi and Hu Qing. They were lying on the ground in a mess, their life or death unknown.
"It's over..." The rat man felt a chill in his heart.
Seeing that the outcome of the battle was decided, Gu Yang sneered, and the giant sword in his hand suddenly accelerated. A faint ochre light appeared on the sword body, and it swept out violently!
"boom!"
The rat man had no time to react before he was hit hard in the chest by the sword. He flew backwards like a broken sack and fell heavily to the ground.
He struggled to get up, but found that his sternum was sunken, his internal organs were damaged, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn humans!" The rat man's eyes turned red, he roared, and suddenly opened his mouth and spewed out a smelly green poisonous mist!
Gu Yang was already prepared. He snorted coldly, stabbed the giant sword into the ground, and shouted:
"rise!"
"Rumble--"
Thick earth walls rose from the ground, blocking all the poisonous fog.
When the rat man saw this, a trace of despair flashed in his eyes, and then he suddenly drilled into the ground, digging the soil frantically with his sharp claws, and dug a deep hole in an instant!
"Want to run?"
Gu Yang's eyes turned cold. If he let this rat escape, wouldn't it be a disgrace?
He drew out his giant sword, and his body was as fast as lightning. In a few leaps, he caught up with the raised mound and stabbed it with his sword without hesitation!
"Pfft!"
The pile of earth trembled violently, and then there was no movement, and scarlet blood slowly seeped out from the cracks in the earth.
Gu Yang snorted coldly, thinking it was over. Just as he was about to put away his sword, suddenly, the ground behind him exploded!
"Human, die!" The ratman's ferocious face emerged from the soil, holding the rusty metal arrow in his left claw, and shot it at Gu Yang's back with all his strength!
The arrow broke through the air with a sharp scream!
Gu Yang's hair stood on end. The threat of death made his brain work frantically, but his body had no time to react and he could only lunge forward instinctively!
At the critical moment, a huge hand condensed with spiritual power suddenly reached out from the side and grabbed the arrow!
"Hmph!" Hu Qing snorted coldly. Realizing that the strange power attached to the arrow was difficult to resolve, he simply pushed it hard, forcibly changing its trajectory!
“Whoosh—Boom!”
The arrow changed direction and instantly shot into the stone wall on the side. With a loud bang, the entire stone wall collapsed and turned into powder!
Gu Yang was still in shock, then he became furious and pulled the rat man out of the soil.
The opponent was already dying, his left leg was cut off and bleeding, but there was still resentment and resentment in his eyes.
"I actually... failed to kill you..." the rat man said hoarsely, then his head tilted and he fainted completely.
Gu Yang stared at him coldly, his anger still lingering in his heart, but he ultimately did not kill him.
He looked up at Hu Qing and said in a deep voice, "There's something strange about this arrow."
Hu Qing nodded, his eyes solemn. "It doesn't look like something someone like him would own. Take it back. It might be useful."
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the devastated mountain forest. Gu Yang carried the unconscious ratman in one hand and strode back to the cave.
The rat man hung his head limply. The wound on his broken leg had been simply bandaged, but blood continued to seep out, leaving a dark red trail on the mud.
Xiao Zi was enthusiastically moving among the orc corpses, searching for spoils with his dragon claws.
It used its claws to push aside the orc's rough leather armor with disgust, and piled all the spiritual stones and herbs it found aside. Finally, it did not forget to spit out a small cluster of flames to burn those useless debris into ashes.
Hu Qing stood in the center of the battlefield, frowning slightly.
He clasped his hands together and spiritual energy flowed through his body. The cracks on the ground began to heal slowly, the fallen trees stood up again, and even the bloodstains were covered by the reclaimed soil.
A moment later, the area turned into a flat wasteland, as if the battle had never taken place.
"This should be able to hide it from the orc elder's detection..." Hu Qing muttered to himself and turned back to the cave.
Inside the cave, Gu Yang was pinching the rat man's chin and pouring a bowl of dark green liquid medicine into his mouth.
The medicine had a bitter smell, and even in his coma, the rat man couldn't help but frown.
Xiao Zi held the rusty arrow in her mouth, walked triumphantly to Hu Qing, and threw the arrow at his feet.
Hu Qing bent down to pick up the arrow, and as soon as his fingertips touched the metal surface, he felt a biting chill.
He examined this strange magical weapon carefully and found that there was more rust on it than before. Several wisps of gray-black decayed air were wrapped around the arrow, slowly wriggling as if it had life.
"This spiritual weapon..." Hu Qing wrapped his palm with spiritual power and gently stroked the arrow. "I'm afraid it will completely decay after a few uses."
As the sky gradually darkened, only the flickering light of the campfire remained in the cave.
It was not until midnight that the rat man woke up.
He first blinked his green bean-sized eyes blankly, and then found with horror that he was firmly tied to a protruding rock by thick vines.
He tried to struggle, but all he felt was a sharp pain in his wound.
"Woo... Woo..." The rat man made a sound with difficulty, trying to attract attention.
