Chapter 309: I Have No Interest in the Name of a Dead Man (2)
Now, after taking a detour, he ran at full speed.
Zhou Shu took only fifteen minutes to travel 250 kilometers.
When he arrived, he immediately saw Mi Ziwen’s army surrounded by a Demon Realm army.
Mi Ziwen was being protected by several generals and kept backing away.
Mei Wushang was covered in injuries as he charged left and right. The aura on his body was already at the fifth rank of the Martial Dao. It seemed that he had already taken the Breakthrough Pill.
!!
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes and looked at the humanoid demon beasts slaughtering the Great Xia soldiers.
They had sinister smiles on their faces as they played with the Great Xia people like cats playing with mice.
Mi Ziwen must have been injured by them.
Zhou Shu suddenly erupted with a powerful aura and descended from the sky with a bang.
The Great Destroyer Sword attacked, and a humanoid demonic beast was sent flying several meters away.
“Your Highness!” Mei Wushang cried out in surprise.
“Brothers, His Highness has come to save us. Kill!” Mei Wushang shouted. Already covered in wounds, he suddenly had the strength to pounce at the demonic beasts again.
Mi Ziwen coughed up blood and said in surprise, “Second Brother?”
In the chaos, Han Dazhi, who was in a sorry state, looked at Yang Hong, who was fighting demonic beasts with him back to back.
Is the King of the South really here?
Yang Hong was also a little stunned, and then he became happy.
Although it was easy to get into trouble where the king was, he had to admit that the king could cause trouble and smooth things over. It was safe to follow him.
“Big Brother, sorry I’m late.” Zhou Shu didn’t even turn around. He raised his sword and blocked the humanoid demonic beasts.
“You’re not late. You’re just on time.” Mi Ziwen said.
Zhou Shu nodded and looked at the humanoid demonic beasts.
“One, two, three, four, five!” Zhou Shu said coldly. “Five first-grade demonic beasts. The Demon Realm is really generous!”
He was also secretly glad.
Fortunately, he had rushed over. Otherwise, Mi Ziwen and the others would definitely have been wiped out by this powerful Demon Realm army.
If not for the Demon Realm army’s repulsive behavior, Mi Ziwen and the others would probably be dead by now.
The five first-rank demonic beasts hadn’t used their full strength at all. They had just been playing with Mi Ziwen and the others.
Seeing Zhou Shu descend from the sky and force back a fellow demonic beast, their expressions turned slightly solemn.
“Finally, someone who isn’t so weak,” a humanoid demonic beast said. “I’m not interested in bullying some weak trash.”
“You are the first.” Zhou Shu raised the Great Destroyer Sword and pointed at the humanoid demonic beast.
“What nonsense are you spouting?” The humanoid demonic beast frowned. “Remember, the one who killed you is a demon from the Demon Realm named Yao…”
Before he could finish, he saw a dazzling sword light fill his vision.
“I have no interest in the name of a dead man!”
Sword light soared into the sky, and with a soft sound, the humanoid demonic beast’s head fell to the ground!
A first-rank martial artist’s body was still flesh and blood. If their heads were separated from their bodies, they would die.
This sudden change in situation shocked everyone.
Be it the demonic beasts from the Demon Realm or the people from the Great Xia army, their hands froze in the air.
The weakest humanoid demonic beast was at least a first-rank martial artist, but he died just like that?
The demonic beasts were blinking, and the humans were rubbing their eyes.
They all suspected that they were mistaken.
The sword light rose again and headed straight for another humanoid demonic beast.
The humanoid demon beast came back to his senses and roared. The spiritual essence on his body exploded.
His body was instantly covered in fur. At the same time, he rapidly retreated.
Swish!
The humanoid demonic beast successfully dodged the sword that was about to decapitate him, but he also left an arm behind. Blood splattered in the air.
Zhou Shu cut off the arm of the humanoid demonic beast but didn’t continue to pursue him. He slashed his sword horizontally at another humanoid demonic beast.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Before anyone could figure out what was happening, one of the five first-rank humanoid demonic beasts was dead, and another was seriously injured. The remaining three were also swept away by Zhou Shu’s sword light.
“Run!” a humanoid demonic beast shouted.
Two blood-colored lights escaped from the sword light. On the ground, there was the corpse of another humanoid demonic beast.
The humanoid demonic beast that had just lost his arm didn’t hesitate at all. He used a secret technique that burned his life force and fled into the distance.
As soon as the commanders left, the Demon Realm army retreated like a tide.
Zhou Shu slashed with his sword, and a sword light swept through the Demon Realm army.
There were at least dozens of demonic beast corpses on the ground, ranging from fourth and fifth-rank martial artists to seventh and eighth-rank martial artists.
Mi Ziwen’s mouth fell open. Han Dazhi and Yang Hong fell silent.
Only Mei Wushang had seen Zhou Shu display his might and laughed. “Demon Realm army, you’re courting death going against our Great Xia!”
Zhou Shu held the Great Destroyer Sword with both hands and stood there. His back made everyone in Great Xia feel extremely at ease.
It seemed that with him around, nothing would be a problem.
Didn’t you see?
Out of five peerless first-rank martial artists, two were dead and three were injured.
The three even escaped with their tails between their legs.
Zhou Shu stood elegantly, but he was cursing in his heart. Mei Wushang, don’t talk big talk now. Come and help me!
With the increased completed kills of the black-grade Great Destroyer Sword, the power of Zhou Shu’s divine ability Total Annihilation kept increasing, but the duration didn’t change.
In thirty seconds, he could unleash fifteen times his combat strength.
His own strength was already comparable to the peak of the first rank. Fifteen times his combat strength was not as simple as fifteen first-rank martial artists.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to kill a first-rank martial artist in one strike.
But there was a huge flaw in his explosive strength. Other than the short period of time, he couldn’t unleash his strength to the limit.
Otherwise, none of the five first-rank humanoid demonic beasts would have been able to escape, and they would have all died here.
After a long while, seeing that no one was coming to help him, Zhou Shu finally spoke. “Big Brother!”
“Second Brother.” Mi Ziwen took two steps and arrived beside Zhou Shu.
“Big Brother, help me up. I can’t move now.”
Mi Ziwen looked at Zhou Shu in surprise. His gaze landed on the Great Destroyer Sword that Zhou Shu was holding up. The wide blade was covered in visible cracks.
He felt a chill.
Just now, when Zhou Shu unleashed his power and attacked the demonic beasts, he looked extremely mighty, but he had actually paid such a huge price.
If even the Great Destroyer Sword was about to shatter, then what about his body?
Mi Ziwen ignored his own injuries and took two quick steps to Zhou Shu’s side. He reached out to hold Zhou Shu’s arm.
Last time, he had Yin Wuyou’s warm support, but he could only make do this time.
Mi Ziwen was seriously injured himself. His arm went limp, and Zhou Shu almost fell as well.
Zhou Shu was a little helpless. He looked up and saw an acquaintance.
Divine Constable Bureau’s Divine Constable Yang Hong!
Yang Hong was actually in Mi Ziwen’s army. In such a battle, even Mi Ziwen was injured, but he actually looked unharmed.
That’s some skill.
“Divine Constable Yang!” Zhou Shu said. “Long time no see. Come over. Let’s catch up.
“Big Brother, don’t make a fuss. Help me get a horse over. Call the big guys. Let’s go back to my camp first,” Zhou Shu whispered in Mi Ziwen’s ear.
Yang Hong hurriedly approached Zhou Shu. “Your Highness—”
He had just opened his mouth when Zhou Shu grabbed his shoulder.
Yang Hong was flattered.
But then, he felt that something was wrong. Zhou Shu’s body seemed to be pressing down on him. He even had difficulty walking.
“Divine Constable Yang, you’re someone I can trust. I’m injured, and I can’t let others know. Help me get on the horse,” Zhou Shu whispered.
Yang Hong was not a soldier. He was a divine constable of the Divine Constable Bureau and had dealt with all kinds of people. His adaptability was not something that soldiers could compare to.
He was shocked, but he kept his expression neutral as he said, “Your Highness, General Han of Great Liang has been rescued by me. He says he has something to report to you. I’ll call him over when we reach the camp later.”
