The Legend of the Immortals Prequel: Wilderness Journey
Ten Thousand Swords in One smiled slightly and said, "It's fine, but this delay has taken quite a while. Did you encounter any trouble?"
A hint of embarrassment crossed Tian Buyi's face as he glanced at the surroundings, naturally realizing that among the three paths of pursuit, he was the only one who returned the latest. After a pause, he replied to Ten Thousand Swords in One, "It's like this. I was chasing that Vampire Demon. I was just about to catch him when suddenly four or five followers of the Demon Sect appeared from that desert, and the Vampire Demon immediately called on them to swarm and attack me."
Everyone was taken aback, but Ten Thousand Swords in One did not show much surprise. He looked at Tian Buyi and smiled, "Oh, if that's the case, why didn't we hear your cries for help?"
Tian Buyi chuckled and said, "I thought... those who came were just some lackeys, so I boldly engaged with them. At first, they had the advantage in numbers, so I fought while retreating to protect myself. After blocking their attacks, I started looking for opportunities to take down these lackeys one by one. Then that Vampire Demon tried to escape but got entangled with me until just now. He kept attacking fiercely, but it seemed he suddenly exhausted his strength and collapsed on the ground unconscious."
Ten Thousand Swords in One laughed and shook his head, saying, "You wore him out; this is a victory method I've never heard of before."
Tian Buyi gave a dry laugh, his expression somewhat awkward.
Beside them, Azure Pine shook his head vigorously and coldly remarked, "It's still because your skills are lacking. Otherwise, you would have captured him early on and wouldn't have encountered so much trouble."
Tian Buyi nodded in agreement. Ten Thousand Swords in One thought for a moment and then looked at Tian Buyi with more appreciation in his eyes. He walked over and smiled as he patted Tian Buyi's shoulder, saying, "Tian Shidi, you may seem dull, but you are wise; especially your tenacity is rare. In the future, your path in cultivation will be limitless."
Azure Pine curled his lip and fell silent. Nearby, Shang Zhengliang and Zeng Shuchang both laughed, while Tian Buyi's face brightened up instantly. His mouth trembled a few times before he nodded heavily with excitement and said, "Yes, I will definitely not let my senior brother down."
The three members of the Demon Sect lying on the ground now looked utterly defeated as they exchanged glances filled with despair. No one expected that they would be so unfortunate to keep encountering this group of Azure Cloud Disciples, especially that Ten Thousand Swords in One, who made them feel utterly powerless to resist; they couldn't even escape. After several encounters, they truly felt as if they were seeing ghosts when looking at Ten Thousand Swords in One.
After finishing their conversation, the gaze of the members of the Azure Cloud Sect fell upon these three individuals. Although it was Azure Pine and the others who had captured them, how to deal with them clearly depended on Ten Thousand Swords in One.
Ten Thousand Swords in One calmly walked a short distance in front of the three, casting a faint glance at them before speaking, "Do you three have anything else to say?"
Duanmu Tie and Bai Duzai exchanged worried looks, while the unconscious Vampire Demon remained motionless, sparing them the fright of that situation.
However, Ten Thousand Swords in One's words sounded as if they were asking for their last words, which was truly alarming.
After hesitating for a moment, the two finally softened. Duanmu Tie stammered, "Young Master Wan, please spare our lives."
"Cut!" A cold snort came from Azure Pine, who stepped forward with a stern expression and shouted, "You have burned, killed, and plundered along the way. How many innocent people have you harmed? Did you spare them when they begged for mercy?"
Bai Duzai and Duanmu Tie spoke simultaneously, "Hero, we spared them. We only took some things; we never killed anyone."
"Nonsense!" This time, Shang Zhengliang and Zeng Shuchang couldn't hold back any longer and shouted in unison, "What about the dozens of villages burned down under Azure Cloud Mountain? What about those people?"
Bai Duzai and Duanmu Tie exchanged glances and shook their heads. "It was all done by others. Young Master Wan, esteemed heroes of Azure Cloud Sect, have you ever seen us actually kill someone?"
Azure Pine, along with Shang Zhengliang and Zeng Shuchang, fell silent as they recalled that they had indeed never seen these individuals kill anyone with their own eyes. However, given the methods of the demonic sect, it was impossible for them to be bloodless. Their current attempts at justifying themselves left the members of Azure Cloud Sect momentarily speechless.
The three were quite angry but didn't know what to do next, so they turned to look at Ten Thousand Swords in One.
With a faint smile, Ten Thousand Swords in One was about to speak when suddenly Tian Buyi, standing behind him, lightly coughed and walked over. He first smiled at Ten Thousand Swords in One, then said, "Wan Shixiong, I believe these three must have killed someone; let's just kill them."
"What!"
"Hey!"
Bai Duzai and Duanmu Tie nearly jumped up from the ground, looking at Tian Buyi with anger and shouting, "How can you be so malicious and slander us at will?"
Tian Buyi nodded at the two of them and said, "Oh." Then he turned to look at Ten Thousand Swords in One, and said seriously, "Wan Shixiong, they have just openly admitted that they killed a thousand people on Azure Cloud Mountain. Their crimes are heinous; we should put an end to them as soon as possible."
"A thousand people..." Bai Duzai and Duanmu Tie were dumbfounded. After a moment, they gritted their teeth and shouted, "You fat bastard, don’t slander us! A thousand people? Even our Holy Sect's Reverend Qiu probably hasn’t killed that many! Besides, a thousand is such a huge number; are you saying that more than half of your Azure Cloud Sect’s disciples were killed by the three of us?"
Is there any reason for this!
To their surprise, Ten Thousand Swords in One didn’t even look at them but instead smiled and nodded at Tian Buyi with appreciation in his eyes. He said, "Tian Shidi is right; I heard what you said earlier. How about this: you personally take care of these heinous Demonic Cult Monsters. It would be a service to rid this world of a menace."
Tian Buyi solemnly accepted the order, turned around, and drew the Crimson Flame Sword as he walked toward the three.
At this moment, Bai Duzai and Duanmu Tie had no strength to resist; their faces turned ashen. Meanwhile, Ten Thousand Swords in One walked aside where Azure Pine and the others were also staring in shock. After a moment, Azure Pine whispered, "Shixiong, this... doesn’t seem quite right. Isn’t this somewhat like taking lives recklessly?"
Ten Thousand Swords in One smiled lightly and said, "It’s fine; just watch."
Azure Pine was taken aback for a moment but nodded silently and stepped back. He looked back at Tian Buyi's figure, but a faint glimmer passed through his eyes.
