Chapter 29

On a protruding rock on the hillside, Dongfang Xiuzhe sat with his legs crossed, leisurely admiring the bloody battle below from his vantage point.

"I didn't expect this Zhao Hu to have some real skills. No wonder Father trusts him so much."

He extended his small hand to touch his pointed chin, and the more he watched, the more he felt that Zhao Hu had potential for further development.

He had never paid much attention to this person before, but it wasn't too late to notice him now!

"It's a waste to have such a talent only as a guard. With a bit of cultivation, he can accomplish great things. The aura he uses is truly unique, capable of making his body swell. I'll have to ask him what kind of aura it is later."

Dongfang Xiuzhe watched leisurely, unaware that the few guards responsible for protecting him were on the verge of despair.

To let the enemy snatch the young master right under their noses was a humiliation and a blow too great to bear. How could they explain this to the General?

Just as they were in a panic, a few shortsighted bandits ran up to the carriage, trying to see what was inside. However, before they could react, they were subdued by the guards.

"Damn it, where did you take our young master?" Guard A, with bloodshot eyes, looked ready to devour them.

"I... I don't know!" The bandits were completely bewildered; they had just started their attack and hadn't seen any young master.

"You bastards, you're all going to die!"

With a roar of anger, the necks of these bandits were all twisted.

"We'll dig up the earth to find the young master. Not a single one of these beasts can be let go. Kill them all, every last one of them!"

The guards were desperate, mimicking Zhao Hu's style as they charged into the crowd.

Although these guards were not as strong as Zhao Hu, they were all carefully selected by Dongfang Long, far beyond the capabilities of these bandits.

In just a few moments, the ground was littered with the bodies of bandits.

"Why are you all rushing over? Who will protect the young master?" Zhao Hu, seeing his comrades join the battle, couldn't help but ask.

"Captain, we are incompetent. The young master has already been taken by them!"

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu was struck like a bolt of lightning, his mind momentarily blank.

A bandit took the opportunity to slash at his back, but the blade only tore his clothes, as if cutting through rock.

"Roar~"

A long, earth-shaking howl.

Suddenly, Zhao Hu's body grew to twice its size, his upper clothes torn into shreds. His rock-like muscles were covered with protruding veins, like worms crawling all over his body.

Dongfang Xiuzhe, who had been watching his battle, saw clearly that Zhao Hu's fingertips had grown sharp claws, like blades.

"Wow, is he going to transform?"

Dongfang Xiuzhe stood up, his eyes shining as he stared at Zhao Hu.

Zhao Hu grabbed the bandit who had ambushed him and with a light toss, threw him into the air. As the bandit fell, Zhao Hu formed his hand into a claw, and with a "pu" sound, pierced the bandit's heart.

Like a mad giant wolf, each of Zhao Hu's strikes was sure to take the life of a bandit. The bloody battle was indescribable.

The entire battlefield instantly turned into a hell on earth!

Not only were the bandits terrified, but even the guards kept their distance.

The only one who wasn't scared and could still smile was Dongfang Xiuzhe. The more he watched, the more he admired this guard Zhao Hu, and he began to think about how to get this person from his father.

Sigh, if Dongfang Long knew his precious son's thoughts, he would be quite surprised.

"I've made up my mind, I will get you no matter what!" At that moment, Dongfang Xiuzhe smiled like a little fox.

Stretching lazily, Dongfang Xiuzhe was ready to take action. He was going to give these bandits a big surprise!

Reaching into his robe, he pulled out a stack of talismans. There was no need for him to act personally; these talismans would be enough to deal with them.

"By the decree of the Jade Emperor, the Lingbao talisman commands, to slay demons and bind evil..."

As he chanted, he quickly formed seals, his hands moving so fast it was as if they had disappeared into thin air.

"Form into flying cranes, heed my command, rise!"

As he spoke, the talismans were thrown into the air, instantly transforming into flying paper cranes.

With an evil smile, he said, "You like to play with fire, so I'll play a big game with you, let you play with fire!"

Without any visible command, the paper cranes, as if receiving orders, flew in different directions towards the bandits below.

The night was already dark, and the bandits, with bloodshot eyes, didn't notice the sudden appearance of the paper cranes.

"Boom~"

A loud explosion startled everyone.

Flames and dismembered bodies seemed to turn the sky red.

The explosion from a single paper crane instantly took the lives of dozens of bandits, but countless more paper cranes still circled in the sky.

"Boom~ Boom~ Boom~"

One after another, the paper cranes began to descend. The bandits, who were still full of fighting spirit and ready to surround Zhao Hu and his men, quickly experienced what it meant to be "the more people, the more they were blown up"!

Of course, this was also their last experience in life!

"My God, run for it!"

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die here!"

The will of the bandits was instantly shattered, and they scattered in all directions. However, the flying paper cranes, as if with eyes, pursued them no matter where they ran.

What kind of enemy is the most terrifying?

An invisible enemy!

Even Zhao Hu, in his berserk state, was startled by the continuous explosions.

Seeing the more gruesome dismembered bodies on the ground than those he had killed, his body couldn't help but tremble.

He couldn't imagine if the explosions were aimed at him, whether his body could withstand it.

Even if he could withstand one or two, what about ten or twenty?

He would probably end up like these bandits, blown to pieces!

"Captain!"

The other guards, all with horrified faces, gathered around, asking about the sudden explosions.

"I think there must be a mage helping us in secret!" Zhao Hu's eyes looked towards the dark depths of the mountain.

On the hillside, Dongfang Xiuzhe was about to return to the carriage when he suddenly felt a group of people quickly approaching from the mountain.

One of them had a strong energy fluctuation, a powerful expert.

"Let's see who dares to run!" A deep voice echoed from afar.

The bandits, still fleeing, all trembled and obediently stopped.

What kind of person had such power, to make these fleeing bandits not dare to move with just a word?
