Chapter 38: Kill
Countless people roared and rushed towards the gate of the Mo Family's mansion.
However, before they could slam their attacks against the gate of the Mo Family's mansion, a rumbling sound came, an invisible barrier enveloped the entire Mo Family's mansion.
"Boom, boom..."
All the people who rushed to the Mo Family's mansion slammed into the invisible barrier, a huge counter-shock force shook all the people who hit it and flew out.
"What... what is going on?"
"That is... the protective array?"
"When did the Mo Family's mansion have an extra protective array?"
"Is this set by Mo Xiu?"
"Let's attack together, the protective array cannot be invincible. Together, we can definitely break this protective array!"
All the people who were knocked to the ground stood up from the ground again, taking out their weapons, and attacking the large protective array that suddenly appeared.
"Boom, boom..."
Whether it was punching or kicking, or weapon slashing, or even if the entire Sun Martial City's warriors teamed up to attack, they still couldn't break the protective array that protected the Mo Family's mansion.
After half an hour passed, the defense array was still extremely strong, everyone felt a little desperate and had to give up the idea of attacking the defense array.
After a short period of silence, someone said, "Mo Xiu still has some tricks, but it doesn't matter, people who don't believe in the Mo Family can stay in it forever."
With this, a "crunch" was heard, the door of the Mo Family's mansion was opened, and a figure slowly walked out of the mansion, it was Mo Xiu.
Although he left the gate of the Mo Family's mansion, he did not leave the protective array, but stood at the door, looking at everyone with a cold face.
"Mo Xiu! He is Mo Xiu!"
Someone who knew Mo Xiu immediately revealed his identity.
Mo Xiu glanced at the man and found that he was from the Liu Family.
Although Mo Xiu went to destroy the Liu Family, Jiang Family, Zheng Family, and Guo Family, he only beheaded and killed the people in the four major Family residences. As for those who did not stay in the mansion of the four major families, as long as they were not the main members of the four major families, he did not bother to solve them one by one.
But today, taking advantage of Song Qian's opportunity to lead one hundred thousand troops to the city, these remnant people actually incited the people of Sun Martial City to attack the Mo Family's mansion.
It seemed that none of the four major families could stay, even if they did not reside in the mansion, even if they were not the main members of the four major families, as long as they were branded by the four major families, they should be completely buried into the soil.
Mo Xiu looked around, and he found that many remaining members of the four major families were mixed in, playing a role in fanning the flames.
"Mo Xiu, it's good that you are willing to come out. Song Qian wants to slaughter the city is because of you and Yan Ran, should you give us an explanation?"
"Young Master Xiu, we don't want to die. You should cripple your cultivation and take Yan Ran out of the city to accept death so that we can also be protected from Emperor Yan's rage."
"Yes, Young Master Xiu, as human, you must be kind and honest, and you must not let us be slaughtered by Song Qian because of your selfishness."
"Once Song Qian chooses to slaughter the city, we will not have a good time, and your Mo Family will follow suit. Don't think that hiding in the protective array is absolutely safe."
"Mo Xiu, don't force us. We have no choice either. You can only blame yourself for offending people who shouldn't be offended."
...
Everyone was speaking, either they wanted to use words to defeat Mo Xiu and let him obediently give up, or they were talking about their own difficulties, but their ultimate goal was still to make Mo Xiu compromise.
Mo Xiu allowed everyone to talk for a while, so when everyone gradually calmed down, he said, "You have no choice, but what does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with me if you are going to be slaughtered by Song Qian or not? What does it have to do with me if you don't want to die or not?"
"..."
Everyone was stunned and was speechless for a while.
Mo Xiu did continued, "What kind of things are you guys? Why should I give you an explanation?"
Some people couldn't help it anymore as they immediately yelled, "Mo Xiu, are you going to be an enemy of the entire Sun Martial City?"
"Can you represent Sun Martial City?" Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, "This Sun Martial City is not yet your turn to represent. Besides, what are you guys? Are you worthy of being my enemy too?"
"..."
Everyone was stunned silly again.
Although they had heard that Mo Xiu was a very arrogant and proud person, it was only at this moment that they realized the realm of arrogance of this Mo Xiu guy.
Before the crowd could retaliate with their words, eight black shadows promptly emerged from behind Mo Xiu, rushing into the crowd with lightning speed, and killing them frantically.
"Puff, puff..."
Blood spattered like rain, and countless people fell in the blink of an eye.
"What are those things?"
The crowd was stunned and quickly reacted, besieging the eight Shadow Demon Guards one after another.
But were Mo Xiu's Shadow Demon Guards something these people could deal with?
In terms of individual strength, none of these warriors present was an opponent of these Shadow Demon Guards. After the eight Shadow Demon Guards joined forces, and their strength was stronger by more than two folds. No one could resist them every time they passed, and countless blood gushed out from their vital parts in the blink of an eye.
But naturally, these people on the scene could not obediently let the eight Shadow Demon Guards slaughter them, soon, someone shouted, "Quickly! Split them up and destroy them one by one!"
Everyone took action and even grabbed the corpses on the ground to resist. After a while, after countless people died, the eight Shadow Demon Guards were finally separated.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Fists and weapons fell on the Shadow Demon Guard.
The Shadow Demon Guard didn't realize it, but even if the eight were split apart, they were still rushing to kill in the crowd, wherever they passed, blood was still splashing, and countless people fell to the ground.
Someone soon discovered that something was wrong. It seemed that they were the only people who fell down, but they never saw any Shadow Demon Guard fall down even once. Even if the sword and spear pierced the body of the Shadow Demon Guard, or even cut the Shadow Demon Guard in half, they were still killing silently, without any signs of injury at all.
After the sword slashed on these Shadow Demon Guards, no blood oozed at all. And when these people's fists and palms fell on the Shadow Demon Guards, they even felt an extremely cold touch as if stepping into the underworld, so strange that it made people cold everywhere and couldn't help trembling all over.
"No! What the hell are these few things? Why can't they be killed?" Everyone couldn't help but wonder.
No one could answer them for them. Mo Xiu just looked from a distance, he didn't intend to take action himself, it was even more impossible for him to answer everyone's question.
As for the eight Shadow Demon Guards, their answer was to kill, they kept killing as if they only knew and were only taught about killing and nothing else.
"Puff, puff..."
In the blink of an eye, countless people fell to the ground again.
Obviously, less than a quarter of an hour later, there was a sea of corpses outside the Mo Family's mansion. Countless people died in the hands of the Shadow Demon Guards. It was a complete slaughter.
After a while, those who besieged these fiends finally collapsed.
"I... I quit!"
Finally coming to a realization, someone turned and rushed out and fled in embarrassment.
If there was one, there would be two, so before long, a bunch of them followed suit. They could not care about Song Qian's slaughter of the city anymore, they only wanted to rush to turn around and escape from this hellish site.
Mo Xiu was too terrifying. The eight Shadow Demon Guards were too powerful, and if this continued, there was no need to wait for Song Qian to come and massacre them, they would die under Mo Xiu's butcher knife first.
The reason why they came to crusade against Mo Xiu before was because on the one hand, some people stirred up trouble, and on the other hand, they were afraid of Song Qian's 100,000 troops.
Once those terrifying amount of troops slaughtered the city, they were afraid that no one could survive.
Rather than just sitting and waiting for Song Qian's one hundred thousand troops to slaughter the city, it was better to dash against Mo Xiu and let Mo Xiu take Yan Ran out of the city to accept death as Song Qian said.
But now, they realized that Mo Xiu seemed more terrifying, especially the eight Shadow Demon Guards of Mo Xiu, which made them feel more terrifying than the army of 100,000.
No matter how strong the overall strength was strong of the 100,000 troops was, if they were to fight, these warriors might not be afraid, and they had a chance to save their lives because they could at least kill one or two of those troops.
But these Shadow Demon Guards couldn't be killed at all. From the beginning to the end, the ones who were slaughtered were them alone, so how was this call fighting?
In contrast, it was really better to fight Song Qian's one hundred thousand troops. If Mo Xiu were willing to take action at that time, they might still have a glimmer of life, better than not seeing hope.
As more and more people fled, the remaining people couldn't hold it anymore.
The remnants of the four major families responsible for fanning the troubles and some people who were plotting bad things turned around and wanted to escape.
Mo Xiu had already decided to come to a real slasher and eradicate the roots, to wipe out these residual forces, so for sure, he would not let these people escape.
Before the Shadow Demon Guard killed those people, Mo Xiu had already displayed the Soul Devouring Knife and stabbed it at them.
Those Soul Devouring Knives were like an invisible storm made up of sharp objects, penetrating the bodies of those people, breaking through the Spiritual Platforms, and shattering the souls of those people in the blink of an eye.
"Bang, bang, bang..." Pieces of corpses fell to the ground at the same time.
At this time, the outside of the Mo Family's mansion was finally quiet, but countless corpses were piled together like a sea of corpses and blood, which made people feel shocked.
Mo Xiu didn't feel any discomfort, looking at the corpses all over the dirty ground, his expression was indifferent, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.
Seeing that no one dared to come to Mo's house to die again, he raised his hand and waved, the eight Shadow Demon Guards got back into the shadow behind him.
Immediately after this, he stepped away from the protective array and walked towards the direction of the City Lord's mansion.
In the City Lord's mansion, Wang Mingkui received a secret letter.
The letter was brought to him by Song Qian from outside the city, asking him to act as an internal response in Sun Martial City. Once the people in Sun Martial City couldn't win Mo Xiu, he must open the city gate and let Song Qian's 100,000 troops into the city. And cooperated with the one hundred thousand troops to slaughter the entire Sun Martial City, finally stepped down on Mo's house and captured Mo Xiu and Yan Ran alive.
After reading the secret letter, Wang Mingkui took a deep breath.
Although he felt a bit wrong to do this to the people of Sun Martial City, if it was possible for him to live on the same tree as Song Qian, the lord of Azure Prefecture, then everything was worth it.
However, before he could write a reply, a figure appeared in front of him. It was Mo Xiu mentioned in the letter.
