”From today onwards, these 800 men behind us will become part of our group. Wuchangwushuang no longer exists, only the Three Tender Hunters remains…”
Hearing what Hua Xuan said, a sense of confusion arose in Mo Wuji. Other than the horse bandits that he killed, there were still around 9,000 horse bandits left. But now Hua Xuan was only taking in 800 people, so it seemed as though the thousands before her were not accepted.
”...Every cent that the Three Tender Hunters earns, is obtained through hard sweat and effort. On the other hand, every cent that Wuchangwushuang obtains is through bloodshed and the shattering of innocent families. We, the Three Tender Hunters, do not want such people…”
Hearing this, there was a commotion amongst the group of horse bandits, but no one dared to make a move. Mo Wuji was standing not far away, so everyone was aware that whoever made the first move would likely not be able to speak a single word, and be cut down by this immortal master.
Mo Wuji nodded his head in agreement. This was the right way to do things: take in one group and kill another group. Just as Hua Xuan had said, many of their hands were stained with the blood of the innocent.
”Kill the Venomous Stinger first!” Hua Xuan declared loudly.
Two men dragged out the Venomous Stinger that Mo Wuji had already chopped both legs away from. They lifted their swords and the Venomous Stinger’s head fell as the blades swung down.
The horse bandits, originally causing a commotion, had all settled down. The execution had a significant effect on them. In his heart, Mo Wuji thought to himself that these murderers were not good people to deal with. While Hua Xuan was only a woman, she had quite a few tricks up her sleeve.
After sweeping her gaze across the group of horse bandits, Hua Xuan spoke satisfactorily, ”Now I’ll permit all of you to report on each other. Those who have hands stained with the blood of innocents must die without exception. The people who make the greatest contributions, will become a general of the Three Tender Hunters...The 800 frontline troops, step forward. If anyone dares to make a move, kill them!”
”Roger!” The first 800 that were accepted by Hua Xuan raised their long blades, and stood before the thousands of men, ready to strike at any moment.
”I would like to report Liu San, he previously…” A horse bandit immediately pointed at one of the other men standing not that far away from him right after Hua Xuan finished speaking.
But before he could finish his sentence, his head was lopped off by another horse bandit beside him.
Most of the horse bandits descended into a short period of silence, and they soon realised that Hua Xuan did not make any moves against people who killed others that made reports.
With this signal, there was chaos within the group of horse bandits. One by one, they raised their swords. There were those who had grudges against others, those who helped each other due to having a better relationship with each other, and those who did not bear any grudges simply tried to secure their own survival…
As long as you were within the group of horse bandits, there were blades raised against you, and for those who left a certain area, they would be killed by the 800 men standing at the side.
Sighing, Mo Wuji could not bear to watch any longer. He knew that no more than a thousand people would survive. But this was indeed the best way to settle things.
Otherwise, it would be nearly impossible for Hua Xuan to control over ten thousand horse bandits with just the eight under her.
The stench of blood in the air became thicker over time, and the sounds of killing only began to die down after a good half a day. Mo Wuji turned around and saw Hua Xuan walking towards him. At the area further away from him, a river of blood and a mountain of corpses had formed. The living horse bandits did not number above 500.
Impressive, over ten thousand men had been whittled down to a few hundred. Hua Xuan was indeed suited to this life of bloodshed.
”Brother Mo, how’s second sister?” Hua Xuan bowed from a distance and asked.
”There’s no issue now. You’ll just have to send some men to bring her in there to recuperate for a period of time after this.” Mo Wuji pointed at the buildings in the distance, which were Wuchangwushuang’s old lair.
”Roger.” Hua Xuan bowed once again, before asking worriedly, ”Brother Mo, was I too brutal with my methods?”
With a smile, Mo Wuji replied, ”What you think is the right thing to do, will be the right thing to do. Next time you’ll be ruling this place with Lengbei. I’ll be going for closed door cultivation for a few days, if there’s anything, you can call me anytime.”
Hua Xuan knew that Mo Wuji was staying here to do closed door cultivation for a few days out of worry that she could not handle that many horse bandits at once.
…
Leaving Hua Xuan behind to settle the loose ends, Mo Wuji entered the old lair of Wuchangwushuang.
This place was literally a palace, and even though he had been to Cheng Yu State Lord’s home, he felt that it was not as luxurious as this.
Mo Wuji did not search through the whole lair, instead only choosing a normal room, and started closed door cultivation in it after hanging a sign outside.
He wanted to take a look at Seven Style Lightning Sky’s second style.
