Chapter 278 Observing the Situation
“Ah! It’s my pleasure. It turns out you’re Senior Brother Ding’s friend. Sorry I didn’t recognize you.” Li Yunqi quickly saluted and then asked, “Which Sect are you from?”
“Haha! I belong to myself and I work for myself! Hahaha... The sun rises in the east, and only I can shine over evil; I, will destroy them. My name is ‘Setting out with One Saber’!”
His laughter was still sounding in the air, while his figure instantly disappeared into the wind and snow.
Li Yunqi sighed, then turned and left.
“I didn’t think that Senior Brother Ding would have such a strong friend, even the Demon General was killed by his random attack. His strength must be over the congenital grandmaster stage... Senior Brother Ding is really mysterious!”
In his heart, he worshipped Ding Hao even more.
The golden sunshine finally emerged from the east of the Snow Dragon Mountain peaks in the distance, breaking through the long night like a sword.
On the ice wall not far from the Rising Dragon Peak, the bronze grimace mask man slowly took off his mask.
A handsome young face with long eyebrows appeared under the sun. He looked sharp and elegant. There was an indescribable beauty about him.
That boy was precisely Ding Hao!
“I believe from this dawn, the name of ‘Setting out with One Saber’ will definitely shake the North Snow Province, and my skill of sentencing with a scorching hot saber should shock those evil people. Haha, that is a very interesting personification. Maybe I should keep using it in the future. No one will think that ‘Setting out with One Saber’ is me.”
“If I were an ordinary martial artist, maybe I would have been trapped by Han Yu’s inscriptions. But the teachings imparted by the inscription Sword Master are too powerful! Han Yu’s formation, it might be powerful in the eyes of others, but in my eyes, it was full of flaws. I used his flaws and killed him!”
“The strength of Feng Xueyi was close to a Martial Mentor, but he was easily killed by me, just because he was extremely scared. Thus it can be seen how important a martial artist’s experience and mental attitude are. I must hone my heart to become a strong warrior. When my will is as tough as a stone, I can become a real warrior!”
“My saber technique and fighting skills still need to be strenghtened. Now I only have a set of ‘Fast Wind Blaze Knife’ stolen from Yuan Tiangang. Although it is a lower Earth Rank combat skill, it is not good enough!”
As Ding Hao remembered the previous battle, there was a smile on his face.
This bronze mask was acquired in the underground ancestral site, after he had defeated the mysterious bronze face mask man. Ding Hao kept it, hoping to find out some clues from the mask; during the latest battle, he used that mask to disguise himself as a bronze mask man, in order to wipe out Blood Dragon Village.
He stored the bronze ghost-face mask in his storage ring, and then took out a Sapphire Jade Plate from his arms.
Before he left the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Wang Juefeng, that cynical teacher-in-charge, gave him that Sapphire Stone Plate that could save his life at a critical moment. There were three in total, each of which contained the power of a full strike from Wang Juefeng. The stone plate in front of him had been cracked, and the inscription on it had been blurred. It was dull and was no longer smooth and radiant.
The reason why he was able to kill that Ox Demon General in a second was naturally by relying on the power of that plate, but Ding Hao used it secretly, and everyone on the Rising Dragon Peak was unaware of his movement. Ding Hao’s current strength was not a match for a demon in the Demon General Realm.
He did not expect that Feng Xueyi was actually colluding in secret with the Demon God Palace, and summoned a Demon General. If he didn’t have that Sapphire Stone Plate, he would have been in great danger at the Rising Dragon Peak.
“One of the three Sapphire Stone Plates has already been used, and I have to be cautious. The rest of the two can save my life, but they are disposable!”
Ding Hao could not help but think of the scene when Feng Xueyi summoned the Crazy Ox Demon General, which gave him some inspiration.
‘Not long ago, in the underground ruins of the ancient Sect, that mysterious bronze face mask man was obviously not an ancient spirit, but he could leave calmly after being defeated. He must have used a magical weapon that could make a space-time transformation. But who could use that kind of mystery weapon to summon him to the Dark Evil Illusion Formation?’
Ding Hao had long suspected that the bronze face mask person was probably one of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect’s disciples, and now he was more convinced of his conjecture.
But for now, he had not found any evidence yet.
“The Terrans and the Demons have always been inconsistent. The two have accumulated eternal grievances which have long been irreconcilable. Because there are restrictions set by the ‘Primitive Alliance Treaty’, they have never been in contact with each other. However, nowadays, a small ‘Blood Dragon Village’ dared to risk universal condemnation to secretly collude with the Demon God Palace. Will there be chaos in the Snow Province? Have the undercurrents been so serious?”
“Demon God Palace is one of the biggest demon forces in the Snow Province. It turns out that it has secretly made such an arrangement. It must be seeking something big. But I wonder who it is dealing with. The Tranquility Academy? The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect? Is it true that, as many people have guessed, there will be a holy war in the Snow Province?”
Besides, thinking of the undercurrents in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Ding Hao suddenly felt that the chaos had come forth, and a cruel big era was underway. If he wanted to survive in the coming storm, he had to upgrade his own strength as soon as possible.
“Maybe I can’t stay in the Valley Village for too long. It is better to make arrangements for settling in Peaceful City. As long as I completely solve the problems of these villagers, I’ll have no worries and then can enter the Snow Dragon Mountain, to train myself by fighting against demons!”
“The Crazy Ox Demon General’s body is a treasure. But what a pity! It was swallowed whole by Evil Moon, the damn cat. But after the cat digests the body, the demon crystal should come out with its shit. And then I’ll have the bald man find the crystal for me!”
When Ding Hao made up his mind, he at once turned into smoke and disappeared into the night.
...
The Blood Dragon Village was finally destroyed by the warriors.
The recalcitrant black horse knights were smashed by the red-eyed warriors. In the process, everyone once again witnessed how horrible Evil Moon was. Along the way, anyone who was hard to deal with had been swallowed by its wide open bloody mouth.
Someone secretly calculated that the fierce white cat had swallowed a total of twelve living people except for the ox. They were all Junior Masters who had Qi. It was incredible that its palm-sized stomach could contain so many things. Was its stomach a bottomless pit?
