Chapter 53: Return to the Feather Sect
"Not good!" Wu Xiong's eyes were about to split, he only hated his carelessness, his subordinates died, so that he was furious, and he forgot that protecting Wu Yuan's safety was the first thing!
"No!"
"Childe!" The other five city guard centurions were all anxious, but they were more than a hundred meters apart, and they could only watch as the thirteen armor-piercing crossbows shot towards Wu Yuan.
"Quick!"
"Protect Childe!" The four centurions who had been following Wu Yuan closely were all furious, and with their strength, if they forcibly connected this armor-piercing arrow, they would also be seriously injured!
If there were only three or four armor-piercing arrows, the four of them would still have hope of protecting Wu Yuan.
Can thirteen?
It's almost impossible to protect!
You know, how terrifying is the speed of the armor-piercing arrow? The thirteen black-armored figures hid in the shadows, aiming for a long time, hoping to hit with a single blow.
It doesn't give the guards much time to react at all.
...... "Thirteen armor-piercing crossbows, worth a thousand gold!" ”
"The four of them are masters of the stream, and they can't be stopped."
"The one who is protected should be Wu Yuan, shoot him directly!" More than a dozen black-armored figures were staring at it, especially the black-armored burly figure headed by him, which was even more full of figures.
If they attacked with an armor-piercing crossbow first, under the protection of the ten inbound masters, it was likely that Wu Yuan would survive.
A strong crossbow ambush with the highest success rate of the first hit!
It's also the hardest to avoid.
They found a large number of land bandits to launch the first wave of attacks, the purpose of which was to distract the many guards, preferably dispersed them.
The purpose has been achieved!
Just wait to shoot Wu Yuan, and the task will be completely completed.
"Whew!" "Whew!" "Whew!" Almost from Wu Xiong, they had seen these black-armored ambushers, and the terrifying armor-piercing arrows had already been shot in front of them.
One of them, no one could stop it at all, and shot straight at Wu Yuan's head!
Suddenly.
"Wow!"
"Wow!" "Wow!" A strange sword light lit up out of thin air, and it immediately split into thirteen, turning into a sky of sword light that enveloped the team moving forward at high speed.
"Peng~" "Peng~" thirteen armor-piercing arrows collided with the sword light accurately, and they burst open one after another!
In an instant, the crisis was lifted.
Not a single armor-piercing arrow approached Wu Yuan.
"This!"
"It's him!" The four centurion guards who were about to fight for their lives looked at the incredible Gu Ji who suddenly jumped up and had strong sword skills one by one!
With one sword, thirteen armor-piercing arrows can be smashed in an instant!
What kind of terrifying power is this?
Such a master was secretly sent by the sect to protect Wu Yuan?
"Stop!" Gu Ji's voice was indifferent, and he had already jumped on Wu Yuan's horse, holding a knife in one hand, and hugged Wu Yuan.
He is pulling the reins of the horse and making the horse stop quickly!
"Phew!"
"Phew!" The four centurion guards grabbed the reins.
"Childe, I'll protect you, you go, kill everyone!" Gu Ji's voice was indifferent, and the killing intent was highlighted: "Remember, you don't need to leave a living mouth." ”
"Yes!"
"Kill!" The four guards were all excited, and immediately turned their horses' heads, accelerated sharply, and rushed to the gentle slope of the mountain.
Then.
"Whew!" "Whew!" "Whew!" There was a sharp and piercing whistling sound, and more than a dozen terrifying armor-piercing arrows attacked.
"Wow!" The knife lights up!
"Peng!" "Peng!" "Peng!" A series of low explosions sounded, and more than a dozen armor-piercing arrows either exploded or were guided to one side.
None of them could get close to Wu Yuan.
Gu Ji's terrifying strength is undoubtedly highlighted!
There will be no third wave.
Because, Wu Xiong, the first batch of guards they killed, immediately frantically formed a formation to kill the more than ten black-clothed figures, forcing them to discard their bows and crossbows and draw their swords to face the battle!
"Captain!"
"How can there be a first-class master?"
"I can't stop it!" These black-clothed figures were all frightened, they were well-trained, and they also fought with Wu Xiong and them.
In terms of strength, they are far from each other!
Of the more than ten black-clothed figures, only two of them have the strength of third-rate masters, and the rest are only martial artists.
As for the large number of land bandits?
In the face of the terrifying disparity in strength between each other, they have all completely collapsed.
Especially the leader of the land bandits, when he realized the terrifying strength of the 'Gu Ji', his scalp was about to explode.
"A second-rate master, maybe he can avoid it, or even split three or five roots, but he can split thirteen roots in an instant? Absolutely not! The leader of the bandits was terrified.
Can smash thirteen armor-piercing arrows with a single sword.
Definitely a first-class master!
"Leaving the city, obviously there is no first-class master, that old guy in Dongye County is already old, where did he come out?"
"How could this mission provoke such a master." The leader of the bandits fled frantically into the depths of the forest.
There is not a shred of fighting courage.
If you are a second-rate master, you can also try one or two with your character and with your armor-piercing crossbow, and you may be able to win!
Can you be a first-class master?
In terms of physical fitness, they are at least nearly three times that of third-rate masters, plus the gap in combat skills?
The tenfold difference in strength is not enough to describe.
Third-rate masters, in front of first-class masters, normally speaking, will only be killed in an instant.
"Boom!" The air roared faintly.
The leader of the Lu bandits turned his head in horror, and saw Gu Ji grasping Wu Yuan with one hand and rushing towards him at an astonishing speed.
Gu Ji stepped on the earth, and the dust was raised along the way, and the land bandit who fled in all directions fell like mowing grass.
All necks are sliced!
Obviously with a person, he obviously chased and killed the enemy all the way, but his speed was faster than that of a fierce horse.
Rushed directly to the leader of the bandits.
"Seniors spare their lives! Spare your life! I have important information! The leader of the bandits suddenly knelt down, kowtowed repeatedly, and begged for mercy.
Beat? Can't beat it!
Escape? Can't escape!
Only by begging for mercy can there be a glimmer of hope for survival, and the leader of the Lu bandits does not want to die like this.
"Wow!" A terrifying sword light swept by.
"Ahh
The leader of the bandits showed a look of pain and fear, and the light of the knife instantly swept over his arms and thighs, breaking his tendons and tendons, and his whole person flew up in an instant.
Hit the ground again.
It was dripping with blood, and it was a little difficult to get up for a while.
"Run!"
"It's terrible, run!" This group of land bandits finally collapsed completely, and they no longer had any intention of resisting, and even discarded their weapons and fled, lest they not flee fast enough.
But.
"Poof!" "Poof!" Although Gu Ji took Wu Yuan all the way, the speed was still fast and terrifying, and a famous land bandit fell with a knife.
And those centurion guards were also divided into four people, and they strangled along both sides in pairs, frantically killing some of the fastest fleeing land bandits.
Just a few dozen breaths.
The original shouts of killing disappeared, and this gentle slope mountain forest was completely silent, only the corpses and blood all over the ground told what a terrible battle had been experienced here!
Call!
Gu Ji finally stopped with Wu Yuan, let go of the hand that grabbed Wu Yuan's inner armor, and let Wu Yuan fall to the ground.
"Whew! Call! Wu Yuan gasped, his gaze swept over the bloody corpses all over the ground, and there was a faint hint of fear.
"Childe, let you be frightened!" Gu Ji said in a low voice: "It's just that if you don't kill all these Lu bandits, if today's news leaks out, I'm afraid it will cause some trouble." ”
"I understand, thank you Uncle Ji for rescuing." Wu Yuan said in a low voice, his face was a little pale, as if he was struggling to calm down.
Gu Ji nodded slightly.
"Childe!"
"You're scared." Wu Xiong also gathered with many bloodied guards.
Especially Wu Xiong, his face was full of fear.
"I don't blame you, who would have thought that a group of bandits would have so many big crossbows?" Wu Yuan shook his head and said, not blaming Wu Xiong for them.
But.
"I hope there won't be a second time like this." Gu Ji, who had always been taciturn, spoke, and his voice was indifferent: "Remember, our task is to protect Gongzi from arriving at the sect safely. ”
"Also, forget about my existence and don't mention it to anyone." Gu Ji's gaze swept over the guards.
"Yes!" Wu Xiong and the others all bowed their heads, not daring to explain.
Wu Yuan did not say Gu Ji's identity, but the strength alone has explained everything, in Wu Xiong's opinion, he must be a high-level sect.
Besides, none of them are stupid, and they think more than that.
The sect actually arranged such a master to protect Wu Yuan, and the importance of Wu Yuan was unimaginable!
"This group of land bandits is weak, and it is impossible for them to have so many armor-piercing crossbows." Gu Ji said indifferently: "That group of people in black, obviously trained, most of them would rather commit suicide than surrender, and there is only one person alive, so they all go to interrogate and find out the reason as much as possible." ”
"Yes."
Wu Xiong and the others quickly dispersed, some to interrogate the few living mouths, and some rummaged through the corpses, looking for clues and ...... Belongings!
Bandits have a tradition of hiding their belongings on their bodies.
Time passes.
In just half an hour, the interrogation had some results, and the leader of the land bandits and several other living people were also directly killed.
So far.
All the bandits who participated in the ambush were killed!
"Childe, this should have been a premeditated ambush." Wu Xiong said in a low voice: "According to what the black armor man said, as well as some evidence we searched, the murderer who arranged this ambush should be the 'Guiyu Sect' of Dongzhou." ”
"Return to the Feather Sect?" A trace of doubt flashed in Wu Yuan's eyes.
"The Guiyu Sect is one of the eight major sects in Dongzhou, and its overall strength is strong, especially above my Hengyun Sect." Gu Ji suddenly spoke: "If I say that my Hengyun Sect is the great enemy at the moment, and the Great Jin Empire ranks first, then this Guiyu Sect is the undisputed second!" ”
Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
Middle Earth is vast, has a long history, and the history of each state is very complicated, and I have only learned more about Jiangzhou and Chuzhou through classics in the past few months.
As for other states? I just know a rough idea.
The impression of Dongzhou is only that it ranks second among the thirteen states in the world, second only to the holy states occupied by the Great Jin Empire.
The area, population, etc. of Dongzhou are far beyond Jiangzhou, and it can rank first among the eight major sects in Dongzhou, which can be imagined as the strength of the Yu Sect.
"There are obviously suspicious soldiers, this belongs to the Yu Sect, why can it be ambushed so quickly?" Wu Yuan frowned and asked the key question.
"This is just a team from the Feather Sect." Wu Xiong hesitated: "According to what the Guiyu Sect disciple said, they didn't know which direction we would set off, so they arranged a total of four teams. ”
"The strength of each team is no less than theirs."
Gu Ji's eyes on the side moved slightly.
"Four teams?" Wu Yuan was even more stunned: "Guiyu Sect actually secretly dispatched so many forces into the territory of the city? ”
"Pay such a big price, just want to kill one of my specially recruited disciples."
"Is Guiyu Sect crazy?"
