Chapter 15, The Blood-robed Man
After nightfall, Archie and Mu Chensi did not rest, and when it was late at night, the two quietly rushed out of the tavern through the window, and the two searched in Tianshui County for a long time without clues, and at this moment, a strong smell of blood entered the perception of the two.
Archie and Mu Chensi glanced at each other, then flew towards the source of the taste, all the way to the east of the city, the house was still lit, Archie and the two immediately restrained their breath, ready to turn over to the courtyard, at this moment, a red figure flew out of this family's house, and there was a person in his hand, after this figure came out, he went directly to the direction of the outside of the city.
The two immediately accelerated to follow, the figure didn't seem to find the two, and followed the figure all the way to an abandoned manor dozens of miles outside the city, only a faint light came from this manor, and the black shadow walked straight into the manor, at this time the two also came to a tree not far from the manor, Mu Chensi signaled Archie not to move, so he released his perception.
But Mu Chensi found that this manor had actually set a ban, and his perception could not be transmitted into it, so the two of them quietly touched the roof of the manor, and as soon as they fell, an incomparably strong smell of blood rushed straight to the sea of knowledge for the two, and the two were instantly shocked.
At this moment, the two jumped up at the same time, jumped off the roof and landed outside the courtyard in an instant. Then two blood-red sword lights fell on the position of the two of them just now, and most of the roof was cut off.
Archie screamed, so dangerous, at this time the two people walked out of the manor, and when the arrivals approached, Archie and Mu Chensi saw each other's faces clearly, these two were wearing red robes, their faces were pale, and their eyes were deeply sunken, like several corpses, but their eyes were shining scarlet. Then the sword in his hand was also bright red, and for a while, the evil aura and bloody aura on the two of them spread.
One of the red-robed men looked at his companion and said with a dry and hoarse voice, "They chased me all the way from the city to this point, thinking that I didn't know, but I didn't want to waste those two sacrifices, so I pretended not to find them." ”
Ning alone let out a rude laugh in an instant, and the two of them didn't seem to take Archie and Mu Chenji in their eyes at all. Instead, he stared at the two of them with interest, as if he were staring at a delicious prey.
Mu Chenji glanced at Archie, "Be careful." Then he directly grabbed his sword and rushed towards the red-robed man who let out a laugh. For a while, the sword light was overflowing, and the two fought as a group.
One of the remaining red-robed men glanced at the two who were fighting not far away, and said to Archie, "Now it's our turn." Before the words fell, several blood-red silk threads emerged from the long sword in the blood-robed man's hand, and then these silk threads merged into a sword light in the air and slashed towards Archie.
This is the first time Archie has fought with someone, and it is still life and death, for some reason he didn't have the slightest expression, looking at the oncoming sword light, he took out the black gold sword, and then began to breathe, after taking a deep breath, the sword intent in his eyes began to gather.
At this time, it was spring, although the night was not as cold as winter, but the temperature was not high, although sweat had appeared in the palm of the hand holding the sword, but Archie still did not hesitate at all, and made a sword like a flint, blocking the sword of the blood-robed man.
Seeing that his sword was easily blocked by Archie, his originally sunken pupils also contracted slightly, a little surprised, but this was only a matter of a moment, and then the blood-red sword in his hand was pressed down in the air in a very fast and violent way, although the sword momentum was very simple, but it burst out with the feeling of being overwhelmed by Taishan.
If Archie made a slight mistake in coping, he was likely to be killed on the spot by this sword, and even because this sword was too fast and violent, the air was compressed by extreme speed and there was a sound of air explosion.
Archie instantly turned over and took a step back, and before he could stand firmly, the sword of the blood-robed man had already smashed into Archie's position just now, splashing a cloud of dust.
A line of blood appeared on Archie's face, and then as time passed, a wound appeared on Archie's face, and blood flowed down his cheek, but Archie didn't care at all, and at the moment when the blood-robed man collected his sword, Archie took out a sword towards the blood-robed man, and several golden rays of light were handed out with the tip of Archie's sword, and the sound of instigation sounded in the air.
The blood-robed man's expression tightened, and he shouted, and hurriedly pulled his body back, raising his sword in the air to block, but he still only had time to block three rays of light, and the remaining two hit him directly, making that kind of ugly sound, just like the obscure sound made by a knife slashing on an iron net.
Archie's expression tightened, and he looked at the blood-robed man's body, and found that there was no blood flowing out of the place where the light had just been concentrated, which surprised Archie. But it was too late for him to think too much. After the blood-robed man stood firm, he sent out a sword again, only to see the blood-red long sword in his hand turning, and a bloody smell instantly filled this space, and several vague shadows appeared in the air, and these shadows squirmed in an extremely irregular way, and instantly shrouded towards Archie.
Archie raised his sword to block, and with a bang, the ground under his feet cracked like a spider's web, and a wave of air splashed in all directions, and those shadows turned into countless fragments and flew apart, some of which were cut on Archie's body, instantly adding countless small wounds to his body. As soon as his mouth was sweet, he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood, but Archie forcibly swallowed the blood.
Then he didn't have time to adjust his breathing, took a step forward, and the vitality in his body erupted from the blood in his body, he raised his sword and slashed down at the blood-robed man in the air, and the sound of breaking the air sounded, and a huge golden sword light appeared out of thin air, illuminating the ground, and Archie's face flushed.
The blood-robed man looked at this sword, his face was frightened, and he wanted to dodge, but he found that he had been locked by the qi of this sword, and there was no way to avoid it, so he showed a fierce expression on his face, opened his mouth and spit a mouthful of blood on the sword in his hand, and the blood-red sword body was bubbling with a smear of smoke and making a sneering sound. Then he raised his sword and resisted it.
During the confrontation, his body was gradually bent into a ball, and began to tremble slightly, and after a while, he let out a loud scream, and the golden sword light still fell, and a huge cloud of smoke and dust rose up and spread out in all directions. After the smoke and dust dissipated, there was a large pit several meters long on the ground, and the blood-robed man was lying in the pit, his body and head separated, and he could not die again.
Archie glanced at it, he could no longer maintain the posture of holding the sword, as soon as his hand was released, the long sword slipped down, and he also sat down, at this moment, the injuries in his body began to emerge, and a sharp pain began to fill his mind. So he hurriedly began to breathe to relieve the injury.
After a while, Mu Chenji also walked back, but his appearance was much more relaxed than Archie, as if he was not injured at all, and glanced at Archie who was sitting on the ground, "How are you?
Archie glanced at it and said, it's almost adjusted, but I can't move today. Then he stood up and continued, and you didn't notice, these people are strange, and their wounds don't seem to bleed.
Mu Chenji said, "That's true. Then the two of them examined the corpse of the blood-robed man for a long time, and found that the blood-robed man not only did not bleed from the wounds, but there was no blood in the cut flesh, and their flesh was as hard as a dried corpse, and there seemed to be no blood circulation at all.
They walked into the manor and found that there was a secret room behind the hall of the manor, and when they walked into the secret room, they were instantly made to vomit by the strong smell of blood, and when they saw the scene in the secret room, they were both shocked, and at the same time, Archie gritted his teeth and said that these beasts.
There was a huge pool in the chamber filled with blood, and the bright red blood water flowed through the pool. Then a corner of the secret room was full of corpses, and at first glance, it looked like someone had dried their blood and died. This scene was like Shura's hell, and the two of them checked it and found that only the two who had just been captured by the blood-robed man were still alive, but they were unconscious. The two returned to Tianshui County with the two people who were still alive.
As soon as they returned to the county seat, the two went directly to the yamen to explain the situation, and the officials of the yamen were grateful to the two of them when they heard that the case of the missing person had been investigated clearly, but as soon as they heard that all the people were dead, the officials of the yamen also looked sad, and after the two told the officials of the yamen the address of the manor, they handed over the two people they had saved to the yamen by the way, and returned to the tavern at night.
The next day, the two planned to return to the sect to resume their lives, but the two did not realize that there was already a pair of eyes fixed on them in the dark, and this road back to the Sword Academy was not so easy.
