In the raging flame, a wooden building had collapsed partly. Commoners would not stay in this high-temperature environment at all, except for Zhang Tie.
In that collapsed building, few corpses had been charred, suffusing a vomiting odor.
As Zhang Tie caught sight of a person in the cellar below this building, he flew over here and opened the entrance of the cellar by tender force and prepared to take the alive person out of there.
This cellar had a few air vents. Therefore, the person in the cellar did not suffocate to death.
When Zhang Tie opened the cellar, a person charged out of there as she stabbed a knife towards Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie caught her wrist. The female raised her head and looked at Zhang Tie with extremely rancorous, tearful eyes as she swore,
You beasts…
. Closely after that, she opened her mouth while lowering her head as she bit Zhang Tie’s wrist forcefully.
She was a 17-year-old girl with dust and tears over her face. It seemed that she had already become delirious. Being stimulated by fear and animosity constantly, she had passed out when she bit Zhang Tie’s wrist.
Watching this girl biting him forcefully, Zhang Tie faintly frowned. Closely after that, he caught her wrist and left the cellar. They soon arrived at the grain-sunning ground. At this moment, Zhang Tie made the muscles on his arms move, sliding away from the girl’s mouth before handing her to those people over there.
What happened?
Watching the girl biting Zhang Tie forcefully with a knife in hand, Bai Suxian asked out of curiosity.
Her family members might have already been killed. When I saved her out of the cellar, she mistook me as a bloody figure. Therefore, she immediately stabbed towards me with her knife. Closely after that, she even bit me. As she was too exhausted, she passed out directly!
Zhang Tie explained it to Bai Suxian. Closely after that, he disappeared once again.
Besides this girl, Zhang Tie saved many batches of alive people. Some kids who hid in the well in their homes at the request of their family members survived the catastrophe.
When these people were saved, some of them also cried and struggled like that girl. Not until they were put on the grain-sunning ground, saw the tough man and listened to the explanation did these people recover their composure.
After saving those alive people, Zhang Tie also saved those heavily wounded ones from the collapsed houses and brought them to the grain-sunning ground in the village.
Under the guidance of the tough man, the grain-sunning ground was cleaned up as the temporary settlements of these live villagers. Bai Suxian took out his portable medicines and instructed those alive young men to save people with the medicines.
Bai Suxian was like a fairy in the eyes of those young men.
It was Zhang Tie’s first time to find that Bai Suxian could be so kindhearted.
Perhaps, Bai Suxian was too eye-catching when she appeared or had a strong qi field. Additionally, she had been used to command people since she was young. After Zhang Tie moved all the alive people to the grain-sunning ground, he found that Bai Suxian had already become the boss of all the others here. Everybody here was following her order.
After Zhang Tie put down the last alive person who was severely burned, he told his disciples to suspend the Fire Dragon Airboat over this place through remote-sensing crystal ring. After that, Bai Suxian walked towards Zhang Tie with that tough man.
The tough man’s traumas had been treated. However, he was still a bit weary spiritually with a weak and pale look. If Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian were a few minutes late, nobody in the village could survive this massacre.
Xu Yian appreciates Fire Dragon Hermit for saving our lives on behalf of all the alive villagers in Xujia Village!
Bai Suxian might have already told the tough man about Zhang Tie’s identity; therefore, the tough man immediately made a deep bow towards Zhang Tie the moment he came to Zhang Tie’s front.
Additionally, Zhang Tie saved them sincerely. He didn’t put on his airs as an earth knight. This tough man had seen what Zhang Tie had done by saving so many villagers from the raging flames and the water. Therefore, he respected Zhang Tie sincerely.
Zhang Tie was especially interested in the LV 10 battle qi totem that this tough man released just now. When in Waii Subcontinent, as there were very few mutated beasts above LV 10 in the underground world, most of the cultivators could not have a chance to integrate the LV 10 mutated beasts’ soul flames with their own battle qis after promoting to LV 10 fighters. As a result, they could only release a
white totem with no image on it
. At the sight of the LV 10 fighter’s battle qi totem with an image on it, Zhang Tie was curious about that at once. It was even rarer than seeing a knight here.
This indicated the sharp difference in cultivating resources between different continents. Taixia Country had extensive land and rich resources. It was hard to see mutated beasts above LV 10 in the underground world of the other subcontinents; however, they could definitely find them in the underground world of Taixia Country. Besides, Taixia Country had more species of mutated beasts from LV 6 to LV 9 than that in other subcontinents.
How do you feel now?
Zhang Tie asked.
Thanks for your concern, Hermit. I’m much better after taking one vial of medium-level recovery medicament from sister Bai!
Xu Yian’s mouth corners twitched; however, he couldn’t laugh out.
What happened here?
Honestly, I have no idea. All of a sudden, I felt I was on the battlefield as I heard the miserable shrieks from inside the village. Before I went to see what happened with these young men who were cultivating with me, over 10 bloody figures had rushed towards us and besieged us. If these young men didn’t cultivate with me before each daybreak over these years, I’m afraid that nobody in Xujia Village could survive in the end…
Xu Yian said in a bitter tone.
Xu Yian had the greatest battle strength in Xujia Village. He was a soldier before. After retiring from the troop, he even worked as a bounty criminal hunter for a period. In late years, after the holy war broke out, he returned to Xujia Village and trained the young men in Xujia Village so that they could protect themselves in the flames of war.
However, there was only one LV 10 strong fighter in Xujia Village. It was Xu Yian who enabled these young men to survive the catastrophe tonight. Without this LV 10 strong fighter, Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian would not see anyone alive in this village when they arrived.
After talking with Zhang Tie for a short while, Xu Yian had felt that it became suddenly darker in the sky. He raised his head and saw the Iron-Dragon Airboat which was slowly declining. Xu Yian was shocked too much by this over 600-m long airboat even though he had seen the world.
Those young men who survived the catastrophe started to be in an uproar as they felt a great stress from the declining airboat.
As Xu Yian had seen the world, he was shocked by such a huge airboat. Xu Yian knew that those clans which had private airboats in Taixia Country were all not average. Many major clans with knights didn’t even have a private airboat, not to mention average clans. Additionally, the size of the airboat in Taixia Country also indicated the position of the master of the airboat. In Taixia Country, even a commander’s airboat was only about 500 m in length. However, this airboat was about 600 m in length, which indicated the prestigious identity of its owner.
The airboat was too long and huge to park in Xujia Village. Finally, the airboat could only suspend above a mountain slope over 200 m away from the grain-sunning ground. After dropping the rope from the airboat, the 121 apprentices of Zhang Tie soon got off the airboat and converged with Zhang Tie on the grain-sunning ground.
After Zhang Tie’s apprentices got off the airboat, a team of 49 elite guards of Bai Suxian stayed inside the airboat. The head of those elite guards was a LV 15 battle spirit. They could manipulate the airboat.
When the 121 apprentices of Zhang Tie passed by Xujia Village, many of them were shocked by the raging flames and the corpses scattering on both sides of the roads. As a result, the faces of many young apprentices who had not experienced such a horrible scene turned pale. When some female apprentices caught sight of the corpses which had been half charred and some kids’ incomplete corpses that were shared by some bloody figures, they had started to throw up crazily before they arrived at the grain-sunning ground.
Liu Xing and the other apprentices of Zhang Tie also looked pretty bad. Even though they had experienced the brutal battles in the Earth-elements Realm, their hearts still pounded when they saw so many corpses across the small village in Taixia Country. They felt that such brutal images should not appear in Taixia Country…
What they saw shocked them greatly.
When all the 121 apprentices arrived at the grain-sunning ground, the day had already broken.
Master!
All the apprentices bowed towards Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie threw a glance at those apprentices with pale faces before uttering,
Liu Xing, Zhao Bing and Wu Yinhui, you lead a team of LV 9 fighters respectively and search 35 miles away with this village as the original point. Catch any alive bloody figure back. I need them to breathe even if you break their limbs. If you cannot catch them alive, kill them. When you encounter any powerful enemy or dangerous situation, send signals to me. The others just stay here to help them deal with the funeral affairs…
