"Not able to get in ans death, but going in, given the current situation, is just another death."
"So everyone is waiting and watching."
Mo Yang from Anshui County noticed it too.
"Mr. Xing, are we really just going to watch the people of Dishui County be slaughtered?"
"What else can we do, Mr. Xuan Yang? Do you have a way to save them? A Great Grandmaster-level powerhouse, even if all of us joined forces, we couldn’t beat them. There are countless Grandmasters in the Great Zhou, but how many are at the Great Grandmaster level?"
Xing actually felt quite helpless too. Matters involving Great Grandmasters were not sothing they could ddle in.
Of course, Mo Yang was well aware of this. He had never felt so powerless before.
This ti was not like with the Evil Flood Dragon, when there was still hope.
Facing a Great Grandmaster slaughtering a city, all he could do was watch helplessly. Even if he went, it would be certain death.
"But that’s tens of thousands of people!"
Dishui County was originally just a remote city, but as the fa of the three counties spread, more and more people arrived; even the permanent residents of the city numbered in the tens of thousands.
If the twelve bandits really succeeded, then a river of blood would be considered light.
"Didn’t Mr. Xuan Yang say the Guardian God truly exists? We can only hope that person takes action now!"
Xing could be heartless for the greater good, but faced with the lives of tens of thousands, he couldn’t ignore it either; yet there really was no way this ti.
If the Valley Master was still around, they could ask the Valley Master for help, but now the Valley Master...
Xing and Mo Yang both fell silent. Faced with this situation, all they could do was stand by and watch.
They were not the only ones feeling this way.
Against Great Grandmaster-level powerhouses, only those at the sa level or top-tier armies could intervene to delay.
But now there were only four days left, and even the nearest army couldn’t arrive in ti.
Under such circumstances, not only the people inside Dishui County city were starting to panic, but even those outside who knew about the news. The twelve bandits were so arrogant already; after slaughtering Dishui County, they would surely not stop.
No one wanted to be next.
...
anwhile, countless eyes were secretly watching this matter.
They did not show themselves, nor did they say anything publicly; they just communicated in the shadows.
"How’s the situation?"
"According to plan, their performance is quite good; the effect will definitely be very good when the ti cos."
"Is it ti to reap the benefits?"
"Not yet, the fear has not reached its limit."
"Then we’ll wait; we’ll take action when it’s ti to reap!"
The hidden figures fell into silence between the two of them, continuing to observe the outside world.
...
While many had gathered on the net, believing that Dishui County had no hope, the Zhao Family Master and Li Yongfeng took action.
The two returned to Yong’an County, a short distance from Dishui County, and made so simple preparations.
"After this, only Li and I will attempt to enter Dishui County city; the rest of you wait here!"
The Zhao Family Master had made a decision: having more people was useless in this matter.
They had analyzed, and it was very likely that it wasn’t just one of the twelve bandits who had arrived in Shuzhou. Besides that Great Grandmaster, there might be other Grandmasters.
The more people there were, if the strength wasn’t up to standard, they might encounter problems; it would be better to just have the two of them go.
Then if he faced the Great Grandmaster with his flying sword, he could still protect Li Yongfeng a bit; with more people, it would not necessarily be possible to protect everyone.
The others from the Three Great Families hadn’t felt the aura of the flying sword, and the Zhao Family Master didn’t elaborate, so they couldn’t understand why the Master would take the risk to enter Dishui County city.
But since it was the Grandmaster’s decision, they had no way of stopping it.
After a simple plan, the Zhao Family Master and Li Yongfeng headed towards Dishui County city.
Both were Martial Artists, so they were quite fast; it wasn’t long before they neared the city, and both beca tense. Li Yongfeng held his flying sword and strengthening talismans tightly.
The Zhao Family Master also wielded his weapon, extrely tense, fearful of being ambushed.
But until they reached the gates of Dishui County city, no one stopped them.
The people guarding the city gates were from the Three Great Families, naturally they recognized the Zhao Family Master; soon, they entered the city.
After receiving this news, the Masters of the other two families arrived with their Family Heads and Yi An.
Originally, the Zheng Family Master was in Yong’an County; it just so happened that during this visit, they were blocked like Yi An, and just as unlucky.
"How did you get in here? Don’t you understand the situation?" The Jiang Family Master seed anxious, for the Zhao Family Master was their only hope in the outside world.
The Zhao Family Master, however, said, "Let’s talk about this after we get back!"
Seeing him like this, the others didn’t say much and all entered the Dishui County yan together.
...
And at the location where the twelve great thieves stayed, one person returned from the outside world.
"Big Brother, soone has entered Yong’an County, and per your instructions, we have let them all in."
"Soone really dares to enter Dishui County? How bold of them, it seems they do not take us seriously!"
"Perhaps it’s external support, but in front of Big Brother, they’re simply insignificant, not to ntion we have so many Grandmasters, hahaha!"
Just as the people from outside had analyzed, it wasn’t just the most famous Great Grandmaster who ca to Shuzhou among the twelve great thieves; several Grandmasters followed as well.
This was the most important reason they could slaughter an entire town.
Of course, too many people would not do either, so they first attacked two small towns to intimidate the people from the outside world. Feigning mystery was sothing they were quite good at.
"Alright, everyone get ready. There are three more days until we attack the county seat and take down this county. Who knows, you might even beco Great Grandmasters!"
Finally, the Big Brother spoke, and all the thieves quieted down and began readying themselves. The allure of being a Great Grandmaster was very tempting.
Ti slowly passed, and soon it was the day the twelve great thieves had declared. The hearts of everyone in Dishui County were hanging by a thread; today was the day that would determine their fate.
To live or to die, it all depended on whether the Protector of the Three Counties, as he was rumored to be, would show.
The people of the Three Great Families, along with Li Yongfeng and Yi An, all arrived in front of the city gate, waiting for the arrival of others.
There was not a trace of fear on their faces.
After so many days, they had all co to understand the power of the Flying Sword and were full of confidence.
As they waited, before long, a group of people appeared outside of Dishui County.
Everyone knew that at this ti, it could only be the people from the twelve great thieves.
"As expected, not just one of the twelve great thieves has co to Shuzhou."
They looked down at the twelve great thieves from their higher position.
The Great Grandmaster of the twelve great thieves was displeased.
"I hate it when people look down on ."
His status wasn’t high before, and it was only through fortune that he had reached his current strength; he didn’t like being looked down upon.
He leaped directly and landed on top of the city wall.
"Allow to introduce myself—you can call Lu Lang. You should be very clear about why I’m here. Are you planning on giving up your lives willingly, or should I take them from you? If I’m the one to make a move, it’s going to be quite painful, so I hope you make the right decision. The sa goes for the entire city!"
Lu Lang used so thod to broadcast his voice throughout the entire city.
He enjoyed this feeling, the sensation of having people kneel before him and show expressions of fear; it was truly an alluring feeling!
He looked at so of the people inside the city; they were already showing such a reaction, then turned his gaze back to the people from the Three Great Families on the city wall.
Yet, he saw no fear in them.
"Why aren’t you afraid?"
"Because we’ve been waiting for you!" Li Yongfeng unsheathed his Flying Sword, no longer listening to the rambling.
He had been curious to see why the twelve great thieves insisted on choosing Dishui County and committed massacre; now it seed this man was just a plain psychopath.
In that case, there was nothing left to be said!
"Whoosh!"
The sword light flashed by; as a Great Grandmaster who had killed countless people, Lu Lang instantly felt a terrifying aura of murderous intent.
"Blood Crow Kill!"
He tried to counter.
But the Flying Sword, upon encountering a Great Grandmaster, erupted with the most formidable power; even without Wang Sheng’s control, it could unleash the God-slaying Sword!
Lu Lang burst forth with nurous Qi-Blood Power, trying to resist the attack of the Flying Sword.
Yet this Qi-Blood Power, in front of the long-refined Flying Sword, was as fragile as tofu, easily sliced through.
Lu Lang’s resistance was in vain.
In the mont before the Flying Sword delivered its killing blow, the world in Lu Lang’s eyes seed to slow down, and he began to reflect on his life...
But before he could rember anything, the Flying Sword had already struck.
Swoosh!
Lu Lang’s body fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust...
