Chapter 759: Shifting the Blame on the Scapegoats

Translator: Udeze Editor: Udeze

The female Elementalist who controlled the two fire dragons and tried to attack Jin Shi instantly felt a freezing chill in the atmosphere that spread from the bottom of the ground up to her legs. Just as she looked down, her eyes turned saucer with a disbelieving expression.

ICE!?

My legs are actually frozen and constricted by ice? And this ice is still spreading to my upper body at a terrifying speed? How is this possible? Aren’t the enemy only cultivators? Could it be that there are also ability holders—Elementalists among cultivators?

Puff…

A sword light crossed away and the neck of the female Elementalist was cut off in an instant. Her line of sight constantly turned around as she saw blood spurting out from her headless body.

Slaughter! It was a massacre!

Other than Siou and his three comrades, the other dozens of Elementalists were killed in just two-plus minutes, whereas for the people under Tang Xiu, only Jin Shi’s arm was injured while the rest were not injured at all.

“What the hell is with this damned place?”

Siou had already noticed the strange situation in the Four Constellation Array. He had desperately launched strikes and also incited lightning to wreak havoc, and yet he was still unable to destroy it. What he could see was his subordinates being successively killed, but he was powerless to fend off against the enemies’ attacks.

“Brother Siou, use the Blood Curse!”

The cute girl who was tottering to avoid several flying swords quickly took out a paper rune from her sleeves.

In a flash, Siou and the other two also took out their own paper runes. When the group of four used their special abilities to evoke the paper runes, a rough and primeval aura and scent suddenly burst, as an intense bloody light amalgamated and merged together to form a scarlet blood tempest!

In the core of the array.

Tang Xiu’s pupils suddenly contracted after sensing the violent aura. He used the Four Constellation Array to wrap Mo Awu and the others’ bodies and pulled them back instantly. Their bodies were frantically drawn back and then thrown out of the Four Constellation Array. At the time Tang Xiu was retreating, he suddenly sensed that the surroundings of the Four Constellation Array was like cracked glass and then was smashed to pieces by the blood tempest.

Four figures rushed out of the shattered Four Constellation Array. But right as they dashed out, they immediately opened their mouths and spurted out a bloody mist. The four were as though eggplants that were frosted as their dispirited bodies fell on the ground about a hundred meters away.

Tang Xiu still felt a tingling fear after seeing the spot where he set up the Four Constellation Array. The hundreds of meters surrounding area were just like had been bombarded, which now become a large two meters deep pit. He didn’t dare to imagine how many from Mo Awu’s group would come out alive if he was late for even a few seconds.

“Is this the power of the Blood Curse?”

The killing intent in Tang Xiu’s eyes increased. His figure flashed lighting fast towards Siou’s group of four. Right as they jumped out, he had already unleashed his long sword and hacked it at them.

BOOM…

The four people hastily set up their defense in a rush, but it was disintegrated under the long sword slash. The obliterating sword qi smashed and sent them flying upside down for tens of meters before finally falling down on the ground once again.

At this time, other than Siou who was still struggling to get up, the other three had already passed out.

Puff! Puff!

The sword light flashed and decapitated the fainted three Elementalists. Siou tried to block it, but Feng Yang, who had silently drilled out from the underground, split him into two halves from the crotch.

Everything had been settled.

Tang Xiu looked around. As he saw Mo Awu approaching him, he then nodded at them and said with satisfaction, “I have yet to identify this group of enemies, but we already decimated them all. But it’s really interesting nonetheless. Anyways, Feng Yang, you stay with me. The rest of you, clean up this mess immediately!”

Feng Yang came to Tang Xiu’s side and asked in a low voice, “Do you perhaps want to set up something, Boss?”

“What do you mean?” asked back Tang Xiu, puzzled.

“We’ve utterly decimated these people. But there must be a powerful force behind them,” explained Feng Yang. “If we set up another scene on top of this, we can make the other party think that this was the masterpiece worked by the people from the Stygian Club. Hence, we can expect the two forces to fight with each other.”

Tang Xiu touched his chin and looked thoughtful as he replied, “So, your meaning is… shifting the blame?”

“Yup. We’ll shift the blame to the scapegoat,” Feng Yang nodded. “We can never coexist with the Stygian Club, to begin with, so let’s give them another enemy. These people we just killed were all Elementalists. If I used my special ability to leave behind some leads and then throw some vampire corpses around, I’m sure the people behind these Elementalists will be pointing their guns at the Stygian Club.”

Tang Xiu’s eyes lit up as he said with a smile, “It seems that each one of you is indeed gifted and talented! That’s a great idea, Feng Yang. Let’s do it!”
