Book 40 - Chapter 5 – Setting the Long Snake on Fire (1/2)

Three e of the hilly region, looking into the distance at Huyan Jin’s ca the sun was dyed red with the rose-tinted color of sunset, while the other side was casting lines of long shadow on the prairie There was sonant beauty, yet it also appeared particularly tender Only it’s a pity that the owners of this ca out of the ordinary [orig simple home-style meal], horse thieves who obliterated hu’s han had died but came back to life, his power exhausted but was recovered; , he said, “The ca-the-arrassland – looking for us Really ridiculous to the extrehan spoke indifferently, “I lost! Ha! I finally tasted real defeat”

Xu Ziling smiled and said, “Without this defeat, you will never beat Bi Xuan This h, it already reaches snatching-the-heaven-and-the-earth, ascending-to-the-great-heights realh each of the three of us has the power to stake it all, ultimately ill undoubtedly lose, and that is the final conclusion Remember that time Qu Ao nearly seized your life, but that was precisely the turning point where you were able to defeat Qu Ao Qu Ao’s mistake made him unable to kill you Bi Xuan will hed and said, “The taste of dying and coettable Now I can put life and death outside the Way, because I have seen death’s true identity Because of Huan Ri Da Fa, now fa, which I call ‘Tou Tian Da Fa’ [Great Method of Stealing the Heaven] Henceforth the Beheading Mystery Sword is also changed to ‘Tou Tian Jian’ [Stealing the Heaven Sword], representing the brand newthe Heaven is definitelythe horses back, we –the–heaven-and-exchanging–the–sun your sword technique really is”

Letting out a cold huhan said, “Why wait until we retrieved the steeds? When I, Ba Fenghan chop Huyan Jin’s stinky head, you will see for yourself Xiaodi’s new changes”

Grabbing Ba Fenghan’s shoulders tightly, Kou Zhong excitedly said, “Just by looking at how after suffering a crushi+ng defeat your confidence unexpectedly surpasses your for the Heaven Sword Technique is definitely not a small matter However, confidence coer to excel and force entrance into the ca, Ba Fenghan said, “Ling Shao, what do you think?”

Shrugging his shoulders, Xu Ziling said, “If we can’t win by force, wethe impossibility into possibility; it’s all in the head”

Kou Zhong cheerfully said, “Since Ling Shao is also in favor of slaughtering the camp, how could Xiaodi not keep you coe, the two of us will be his lackeys [orig the foot soldier running before a carriage]”

Ba Fenghan suddenly changed the subject, saying, “When Bi Xuan knows I am not dead, I wonder what kind of bloill his confidence take?”

They aiting for the night to co the night guards They were hiding near the enemy camp; hence they were in an extremely fine mood and had free time to talk about whatever they were interested in

Xu Ziling said, “Not only he won’t be able to grasp, as well as understand, why you did not die and your power is doubled, potentially you are planting the seed of defeat in his heart Just like shi+ Zhixuan’s Bu Si Yin Fa, which is no longer without any flaw”

Full of adht Therefore, we absolutelythe Tou Tian Da Fa in secret; we can’t let the fourth person know”

Ba Fenghan said, “Give me a year, I ipe away this hatred”

And then, sweeping the caer an ordinary horse thief; rather, because his looting continues to grow, he has turned into ar advantage of this golden opportunity, we could casually wipe the as we can kill Huyan Jin, the men under him will not submit to anybody else, they will definitely be all split up and in pieces Once they stumble, they will lose the vitality Other tribes who have suffered enough froether and attack theht, he asked, “How are we going to han replied, “If we can find the three horses, Huyan Jin’s commander tent will be nearby Huyan Jin’s natural disposition is crafty and paranoid; unlike Xieli, he won’t let people find out his tent position in just one glance”

Xu Ziling felt a headache, “There are more than two hundred tents in here,” he said, “Approxi one cluster, each cluster is separated by ed in serpentine battle array, in deep confor to find the three horses like panning for gold from the sand, and scout the location of Huyan Jin’s tent at the sahan s in some air, he let out an owl hoot-like cry, which spread far into the distance, scaring the two boys that they juht

In response, they heard a horse neigh Looking at the direction of the sound, they saw at the third cluster on the left end, Ba Fenghan’s beloved horse Takla wildly Since it was tied a flock of warhorses by the cah, it would be very difficult to find its location

Very scared and on edge, the two boys looked around After seeing that the ene said, “This move is really formidable Perhaps even when Huyan Jin arrived at the netherworld, he still did not knoe could find hireement If they could not find the location of the coth, it was indeed impossible to make their move But now the entire situation iether

Suddenly Kou Zhong frowned and said, “Huyan Jin hates us to the bone, can he not make the move to leave the cahan said, “Precisely because he hates us that he ive the horses and the ood rest When hiseither rocket or hoeon, and then he will is to cross theto rest, by the tiht to be too tired to evenspoke heavily, “Then let us, three brothers give hiuarantee that he will never forget it for the rest of his life”

The sun finally set, the night enveloped the earth, ca up everywhere across the camp, the arohan said, “Taking advantage of the ti, ill use arrow first to eli area But each arrow must take one life, don’t let him make any noise And then we’ll set the serpentine ca-red bonfire wood onto the tents, to create chaos asrid of Huyan Jin”

Kou Zhong laughed and said, “Are you thinking of repeating old tactic?”

Ba Fenghan cheerfully said, “Using penetrating tactic to strike and scatter, using speed to control the slow, only then will the fein Re as we snatch the horses back and behead Huyan Jin, then the goal of this battle is accohed and said, “And you don’t consider that greedy? Let’s go!”

‘Swish!+’

The bowstring twanged lightly Terful arrows shot out of the Extinguished Sun and Perished Moon bows, across the grassland, and pierced two ene any noise the two men fell backward in the dark, outside the reach of the ca their shenfa, like a phantoroup of tents where Huyan Jin’s tent was located

Huyan Jin’s horse thieves’ attention was focused on plains’ side, their precaution toward this side was only perfunctory Furtherure out what is true and what is false! And with their guts reaching to the sky, the three even dared to shake their nearly a thousand-han flitted forward swiftly By the ti roast la, the Stealing the Heaven Sword already arrived Nearly half of the ically they were beheaded by Ba Fenghan, while the rest were attacked by Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling tailing closely behind Ba Fenghan so that their breathing stopped and their bodies perished

The horse thieves in the ca to realize that they were under attack; hastily theyat all Kou Zhong and Ba Fenghan stor-red firewood fro-the-sky technique he sprinkled it over the ene, because Huyan Jin snatched their horses aere having a bellyful of anger; seeing the horse thieves were flocking to meet the enemy, how could they showeverybody on their way

“Where’s Huyan Jin?” Kou Zhong shouted sternly, “Get out and receive your death!”

His saber slashed out, fierce and severe without equal, no need to bewas the fully concentrated spiraling energy The little leader of the bunch, as first to arrive, was hacked that the person and the saber were lifted up froround and were thrown backward, his life perished on the spot

Ba Fenghan was eventhe Heaven Sword simply swiped the enemy’s shi+eld from below, and conveniently entered the ene flew, he kicked the ene in fro to help were thrown to the east and fu chaos

But all of a sudden the front and back, left and right, were ferocious horse thieves, their battle cry shook the heavens, swords and axes met and waited upon the to put these two to death

Yet Kou Zhong and Ba Fenghan remained calm and were unafraid; one saber and one sword, everywhere they went dead bodies filled the ground, dyeing the tender green spring grass red with their blood

The chain of tents constantly caught fire Xu Ziling launched another set of tactics; relying on lifting-up technique, one moment he leaped up the top of the tent, and the moment he bounced down, he landed on another bonfire, and kicked the burning wood onto another tent; the next ain The moment chaos started to ensue, he set on the fire everywhere to createhe could toto attack, and thus they did not knohere to defend

The flah, ereat a the wide expanse of the prairie where the cae as he carried out his operation The destruction he created spread fro-snake-shaped ca and the horse neighing, the horse thieves soe nuht raids; they rushed about in panic, battered and exhausted

Although there was a group of , but there was no way to stop hi!’ Two eneround

Xu Ziling flashed toward another caht sky like fireworks, and landed on top of the tents all around
