“This little brother is truly powerful.”

Cries of shock rang out from afar. Evidently, these mercenaries from the Crazed Dragon Mercenary Group had seen the scene of Lin Feng killing those asura devils. All of them were stunned, shocked, and impressed.

Lin Feng let out a sigh. “I don’t dare to accept the praise. I’m just trying to do my best.”

Although he was humble, Lin Feng continued to kill the other demons and devils.

Su Zimo and the others recovered from their daze and also rapidly rushed over to kill the demons and devils.

After an intense battle, those demons and devils suffered a great defeat and fled the area.

“Haha, it feels so refreshing. My name is Fan Wei. Brother, how should I address you?” The mercenary in the lead clasped his fist and asked straightforwardly.

“Lin Feng.”

…

“So it’s Brother Lin. I really wished to have a good drink with a young hero like Brother Lin, but right now, the demons and devils are still running rampant and we don’t have much time. We can only wait for another chance in the future,” said Fan Wei with regret in his voice.

“If we meet again in the future, I will definitely have a good drink with Brother Wei.” Lin Feng also clasped his fist.

“Let’s go.”

Fan Wei and the others didn’t stay for too long. They departed swiftly after that.

Lin Feng’s group of seven didn’t stay in the area either.

“Now that our warhorses were killed, our traveling speed is simply too slow.” Lin Feng frowned as they traveled.

Su Zimo replied, “There’s a small town a hundred miles away from here. We can go there to buy a few warhorses.”

“Right. We have to trouble Brother Su to lead the way then.” Lin Feng nodded his head.

The seven of them moved out, heading toward the little town Su Zimo mentioned.

The territory governed by the True Martial Country was simply too vast. From east to west, it stretched over 300,000 kilometers; from south to north, 700,000 kilometers. The land was too vast for the populace. One usually had to travel for a few days at least to run into a village or small town, and they might not even be able to see one.

The next day, Lin Feng’s group arrived outside the small town Su Zimo had told them about.

When they arrived, they discovered that the air above the small town was enveloped by blood-colored light.

Their expressions changed. Lin Feng spoke in a low voice, “I’m afraid that the devils and demons have already harmed this town. Let us act!”

Swish~

The seven of them sped into the small town. After they entered, they only saw blood dyeing the ground of the small town completely red.

Numerous corpses were seen lying on the ground, their blood sucked dry, leading to them becoming dried husks.

There were even the bodies of animals.

These demons and devils didn’t spare a single human or animal.

“Ahh…” A scream of misery rang out from the depths of the small town.

The seven of them increased their speed and soon saw a mansion being surrounded by a hundred demons and devils.

The environment here wasn’t bad originally. Some of the clans in the city would construct mansions like this, and if some strangers passed by or if someone wished to enter the forest to hunt, they could use this place as a place to rest.

Also, this mansion looked extremely luxurious. It might have been constructed by some major clans in the city.

There were tens of guards fighting against the demons and devils, but humans kept dying with each passing second. The situation was extremely dangerous for them.

“There are still some living people. Senior brothers, we have to be careful when we attack. Do not let these creatures injure you or things will be very troublesome,” Lin Feng warned in a low voice.

“Don’t worry, we will take care of ourselves.” Zhang Qichu and the others nodded.

Swish, swish, swish~

The seven of them rapidly rushed toward the hundred demons and devils.

Lin Feng took the lead. Zhang Qichu, Su Zimo, and Wang Xuanming formed a group while Zhang Muzhi, Li Kun, and Ouyang Li formed the second group.

They arranged themselves in a formation resembling the character ‘品’, which would allow them to attack and defend, as well as to support each other.

This was a combination sword technique passed down by the Long River Branch Court. Its name was the human-shape sword formation.

“There are still human cultivators here, and their qi and blood brims with vitality! Let’s kill them all and drink all their blood!” An earthfiend devil hoarsely called out.

Swish~

After that, forty to fifty asura devils, earthfiend devils, ox-head monsters, and various demons and devils lunged toward Lin Feng’s group.

“Madam, they are from the Jialan Academy.” Some of the guards had good judgment and instantly recognized the robes Lin Feng and the others were wearing.

The eyes of a beautiful middle-aged woman hiding in the mansion gleamed. She said, “Everyone, the experts of the Jialan Academy have arrived. Let’s persist a little longer; we will definitely be able to escape this calamity.” The voice of this middle-aged woman was weak and gentle; it was very pleasing to the ears.

Behind the beautiful middle-aged woman, there was still a young girl about fifteen to sixteen years of age. She was clad in yellow, had a lanky figure, and was also extremely beautiful.

“Mother, will we be saved?” The originally pale face of the young girl suddenly regained its color as she asked in joy and surprise.
