Chapter 13

Stepping on the Longma, Bu Ye was about to stand up straight when he suddenly heard a low growl from his right side. At the same time, a pungent wind hit his nose, and the injured Longma, almost embedded in the wall, fiercely bit at him!

The Longma is not a horse. Although its head is covered in fur, its lips are turned outward, revealing two rows of sharp, large teeth. Its eyes are vertical, like dragon eyes! This mount is not a herbivore but a carnivore! Its four hooves are much stronger than those of ordinary cattle and horses, capable of easily crushing the head of a fierce beast!

The Longma's huge mouth rapidly enlarged in front of Bu Ye. Bu Ye instinctively bent his right arm and fiercely lifted it, striking the Longma's chin with great force.

"Bang!!"

The Longma's head was directly knocked backward, giving Bu Ye a chance to catch his breath. He pushed off the Longma and quickly stood up.

"Roar!!"

Just as Bu Ye stood up, the cancer cells in his body suddenly screamed, warning him again, and this time it was the strongest warning he had ever received!

Bu Ye turned his head to the left, guided by the cancer cells, and saw a one-eyed giant riding a particularly tall Longma charging at him!

Most astonishingly, the one-eyed giant's body also glowed with the light of blood stars!

A quick glance revealed eight or nine of them!

This was the second Heart Cloud Awakened person of the Mangshan bandits!

The giant roared like a thunderstorm, and the Longma under him let out an excited low growl, charging at Bu Ye like a truck.

At this moment, the comfort and excitement Bu Ye felt from his full-speed run vanished, and he fully realized a fact: although he had awakened his Heart Cloud, there were still stronger people in this world!

"Run!!"

A loud, slightly aged roar sounded from behind Bu Ye, finally making him react. Without a word, he turned and ran!

The one who shouted was the old cripple. When Bu Ye ran past the old cripple, who had difficulty moving, he simply extended his arm and carried him under his right arm.

The one-eyed giant's Longma was very fast, getting closer and closer to Bu Ye.

Without waiting for the old cripple's instructions, Bu Ye suddenly turned sharply to the left, first turning behind a house. When no one could see him, he grabbed the old cripple's waist with both hands and threw him onto the roof of the house.

"Whoosh!"

By the time the old cripple reacted, he was already falling toward the roof. He quickly adjusted his body to avoid a severe fall.

Bu Ye continued running. He had already saved the old cripple twice, so he had no intention of stopping. He wanted to run out of Dongmang Village directly!

He had long said that Dongmang Village was not a place to stay, and today's attack by the Mangshan bandits was the best proof.

It wasn't that he was cold-hearted. In the year and a half before he crossed over, he had endured too much torture, which had changed his personality.

"Roar!!"

At this moment, the cancer cells in his body became agitated again!

Turning his head back while running, he saw the one-eyed giant riding the Longma chasing him again.

The giant's right hand swung, and a hand axe flew toward him like lightning!

If Bu Ye still had his original skills, he would have no chance of dodging it. However, with his seven Heart Cloud blood stars fully activated, he suddenly lunged to the left, as if carrying a small constellation, easily dodging the flying axe. He did a forward roll on the ground and stood up again, continuing to run.

However, dodging the flying axe ultimately slowed him down, allowing the giant to get closer. From the giant's posture, it was clear that he was there to kill him and would not let him go.

Bu Ye had no suitable weapon in his hands, and he had one or two fewer blood stars than the giant. He could not be the giant's match. While running, he also began to observe the surroundings, looking for a weapon.

After about ten seconds, Bu Ye did not expect that he would gradually lead the giant away from the main battlefield. After the Mangshan bandits rushed into the village, they split into two groups. Half of them fought with the village defense team and the young men at the village entrance, while the other half charged straight to the north of the village, killing and slashing anyone they saw. The entire battlefield was in the middle of Dongmang Village, while Bu Ye and the giant were heading to the west side of the village.

After being forced to dodge the giant's two flying axes twice, the distance between them was shortened again.

Seeing that he was about to be caught, Bu Ye had a sudden idea. He stomped his feet on the ground, almost creating two pits, and leaped up, "Whoosh," landing on the roof of a house to the right. The house was about four or five meters away, and the eaves were about three meters high, but in the midst of the wind, he actually jumped up!

However, this was not some light kung fu, but a leap using the brute strength from his activated Heart Cloud blood stars. When he landed on the roof, his feet sank, almost collapsing the roof!

Having accomplished what only characters in martial arts novels could do, Bu Ye had no time to be happy because the giant had already caught up to the house. He struggled to stand steady and ran to the middle of the roof, trying to stay as far away from the giant as possible.

In this way, as long as the giant did not dismount, he would have to tear down the house to attack him.

Bu Ye's response made the giant pause. His weapon was a two-meter-long, thick-backed saber, which was not suitable for tearing down a house.

Bu Ye did not look at the giant but quickly surveyed the battle in the village. After just a few seconds, he determined that Dongmang Village could not be defended. The Mangshan bandits had split into two groups, with half of them tying up the village defense team, and the other half sufficient to massacre the entire village.

"Whoosh!!"

The wind sounded, and a figure suddenly leaped onto the roof. The imposing figure was right in the direction of the sun, blocking the sunlight and casting a shadow over Bu Ye, who was about to be struck by the giant's saber with both hands!

The only one who could leap onto the roof was the one-eyed giant. Bu Ye lunged to the left as fast as he could, narrowly avoiding the giant's saber, but he also rolled down the roof.

"Roar!!"

Bu Ye was not afraid of falling. With his current physical condition, falling from a three-meter-high house would not be a problem, and he could even adjust his body in mid-air. However, as he rolled to the edge of the roof, he suddenly heard a fierce roar from below. The giant's Longma had circled around to the back of the house and leaped up, trying to catch him in mid-air.

Bu Ye roared and, while rolling, punched the roof with his right hand.

"Bang!!"

His punch directly broke through the roof, and his elbow got stuck in the hole, stopping him.

The Longma thought it could catch Bu Ye but did not expect him to stop, so it had to glide past in the air, getting farther and farther away from Bu Ye.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a loud noise came from the roof above Bu Ye. The giant had rushed over, but the roof could not bear his weight, and he fell through.

Bu Ye got a chance to catch his breath, quickly stood up, and saw another house about five meters ahead. He pushed off the edge of the roof with both feet and leaped over.

Just as he jumped, he heard a "swish," and the giant's thick-backed saber appeared where he had just landed. If he had been a bit slower, his feet would have been cut off!

Bu Ye looked back in mid-air, breaking out in a cold sweat.

This was not a dream; a single mistake could cost him his life!

"Slap!"

Bu Ye finally landed on the roof of another house. Before he could catch his breath, he heard a horn sound from the village entrance, with a rather peculiar tone.

"Uu... uu..."

Based on Bu Ye's memory of this world, he immediately recognized that this was the signal for the villagers to abandon the village and flee to Dongmang Mountain!

Abandon the village?!
