CHAPTER 877: CHAPTER 655: WARRIOR CHIEF

After taming Qiu Niu, Li Yi was in a rather good mood. From today, he had another mount. He planned to cultivate Qiu Niu well and let it embark on the path of Immortal Cultivation too.

However, this task he intended to assign to the High Priest Dou Kun.

As a wise elder, Dou Kun had already learned the language of Immortal Cultivation. It was believed that he would soon embark on the path of Qi Cultivation, and afterward, many matters could be handled by Dou Kun on his behalf.

This would also allow him ample time to peacefully stay in this new abode to transform Divine Blood and perfect the Five Qi.

Nonetheless, although the idea was great.

Suddenly.

At this moment, a loud noise accompanied by a violent tremor came from a nearby direction. Immediately afterward, a familiar Exotic Blood aura shot up into the sky. This aura was like a True Dragon, yet mixed with the astonishing murderous intent of a warrior, appearing extremely brutal.

"Hmm?"

Li Yi immediately looked up towards the direction of the commotion.

Beside him, Qiu Niu also quickly turned its huge red vertical pupils to look over, then uneasily snorted through its nostrils.

Because this aura made it sense a trace of danger.

"This is Long Yu’s aura, has he engaged in a fight with someone?" Li Yi instantly frowned, but then he was somewhat puzzled.

Long Yu was residing well in the Xiu Xiang Family. These days, after eating meat and drinking wine, his body had completely recovered, and his temperament had stabilized. Under normal circumstances, the chances of him engaging in a fight with someone were very low.

Who provoked him?

"Let’s go and have a look." Li Yi immediately rose on a cloud, stepping on a golden Xiangyun, and instantly flew above the Xiu Xiang Family.

It was only then that he saw.

He didn’t know when the Xiu Xiang Family had already been surrounded by a group of warriors wearing leather armor, robust in build, and wielding long spears, among whom a Warrior Chief was already engaged in combat with Long Yu.

Although that Warrior Chief wasn’t a Divine Blood Warrior, in this world, strength wasn’t exclusive to Divine Blood Warriors. Some warriors with endless potential could still become figures of power even without Divine Blood.

And this Warrior Chief was indeed a seasoned strong warrior. His physique was formidable, his body bathed in the blood of various powerful mutant beasts, his entire being as if forged from steel, with every gesture containing the dreadful power to shake the earth.

Bang!

The Exotic Blood Warrior Long Yu clashed with him, although covered in Dragon Scales like wearing a heavy armor, merely taking a punch saw his Dragon Scales shatter, his muscles torn, a grim wound appeared on his body, bleeding profusely.

Yet, Long Yu’s punch landing on this Warrior Chief’s body made a sound like metal striking iron, hardly causing him any significant damage.

"A slave Exotic Blood Warrior dares to resist us Beihuang Warriors, today I’ll break your bones, twist off your head, and then hang your corpse at the gate of Beihuai City as a warning to those who don’t abide by the rules."

The Warrior Chief shouted angrily, his tall and sturdy body charging like a fierce beast.

Wherever he passed, he tore a white air wave, the air exploding.

Relying just on his body, this Warrior Chief unleashed extraordinary power.

Long Yu’s golden vertical eyes narrowed slightly, sensing the opponent’s might, but being an Exotic Blood Warrior, he couldn’t just do nothing, letting these Beihuang Warriors bind his hands and feet, and escort him away.

Combat was his nature.

"Roar!" Long Yu roared, like a True Dragon awakening, extending his claws covered in Dragon Scales, unleashing his full power, attempting to tear apart the finely honed physique of this Warrior Chief before him, and dig out his strong and powerful heart.

The collision of pure strength, the entire area was shaking, echoing loudly.

The Xiu Xiang Family which Li Yi had initially built couldn’t withstand such torment, crumbling under the residual force, turning once more into ruins.

"Concede, Exotic Blood." At this moment, the Warrior Chief withstood Long Yu’s blow, simultaneously seizing the opportunity to strike back with a punch.

This punch landed on Long Yu’s head, instantly making him vomit blood, his entire body crashing heavily to the ground, raising clouds of dust with the strong impact causing cracks to appear all over the ground, each crack seemingly like an abyss capable of swallowing a person.

But the chest of this Warrior Chief now bore five bloody holes, with blood gushing out.

"Good claws, but your strength is too weak, not enough to tear my body and take away my heart." The Warrior Chief snorted heavily, appearing extremely aloof, his muscles squirming, and the wound quickly healed, the blood no longer flowing.

While Long Yu, who took this punch, had already completely fallen unconscious.

Although his power was decent, it was still too young, not having reached its peak, otherwise, the old Slave Master wouldn’t have sold him for merely a thousand gold.

After all, cultivating an Exotic Blood Warrior is a long and costly endeavor.

"Capture him, take him away, and kill all the other slaves."

Then this Warrior Chief glanced at the unconscious Long Yu, feeling he was a good Exotic Blood Warrior with some value, thus deciding to take him.

As for the other slaves and Guests of the Xiu Xiang Family, their strength was too weak, having no reason to exist.

"Attacked." The other Beihuai City warriors immediately rushed into the Xiu Xiang Family, spears in hand, ready to kill everyone here.

"What exactly is happening? Why do the Beihuang Warriors want to kill us?"

"Quickly escape here and find the lord, inform the lord about what’s happening here."

"Fight against these Beihuang Warriors with all our might, use our lives to protect the safety of the family estate."

Faced with such a situation, the guests and guards of the Xiu Xiang Family shouted in fury. Although they didn’t know why they were being besieged, at this moment, they wouldn’t surrender and let others take their heads.

Even if they can’t win, they would rather die fighting.

"Beihuang Warriors?" At that moment, Shanguo shuddered upon seeing this scene. She had witnessed the power of the Beihuang Warriors; once, Ju Jiao, a warrior from Shoushan Village, wanted to become a Beihuang Warrior.

Unfortunately, he was eliminated during the selection and had to return to Shoushan Village.

Upon seeing the Exotic Blood Warrior Long Yu being defeated, Shanguo felt she had to inform Da Yi quickly about this terrible situation. Staying here would be futile since she couldn’t contend with the Beihuang Warriors at all.

"It seems this disaster is unavoidable." The High Priest Dou Kun sighed, then gestured for E Ji and Su Ji to hide behind him as usual.

His eyes emitted a brilliant light, and an extraordinary aura gathered around him, as energy from all directions madly concentrated towards him.

Initially ordinary, Dou Kun now radiated a faint halo from head to toe.

This is what Nanshan Bo spoke of, where cosmic harmony gives birth to heavenly light.

Using Soul Power to manipulate Heaven and Earth Power, thereby demonstrating powers akin to spells, known as witchcraft in this world.

Yet at this moment.

As a Beihuai City warrior was about to take away the unconscious Long Yu.

Suddenly.

A silver lightning bolt struck down.

In a trance, the silver lightning turned into a vibrant tiger, carrying terrifying strength, instantly hitting the warrior from Beihuai City.

"Ah!"

The Beihuai City warrior spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, his strong body flew backwards and heavily crashed to the ground, also falling unconscious.

However, he did not die.

Perhaps due to the strong defense of his leather armor, or maybe the life force of the people in this world is too resilient.

Surviving an attack from the tiger’s strength.

"Stop." This unexpected change made the Warrior Chief immediately issue a command.

All the Beihuang Warriors, originally ready to act, paused their steps.

They looked at the silver tiger formed by lightning, their faces changed involuntarily, because they smelled a familiar scent from the tiger: the smell of Divine Blood.

Has a Divine Blood Warrior intervened?

The Warrior Chief raised his eyes to the sky.

Only to see Li Yi standing on golden Xiangyun, slowly descending. He stared at the Warrior Chief, speaking: "I am Da Yi, this Exotic Blood Warrior is my slave. Why do you want to attack my slave? He hasn’t offended you in any way."

Da Yi?

The Warrior Chief then fixed his gaze on him, saying: "Merchant Lord Xiu Xiang has committed a major crime. Everything in his household must be confiscated, and all slaves associated with him must be killed. Da Yi, you are a Divine Blood Warrior; do you wish to stop us Beihuang Warriors?"

Out of respect for the strong, the Warrior Chief was willing to explain to Li Yi, whereas anyone else would have already been punched to death by him.

Li Yi, hearing this, couldn’t help but recall how Xiu Xiang disappeared for a long time these few days to avenge against another Merchant Master.

And today, the merchant, Lady Nuheng, who sold him three properties, mentioned that Xiu Xiang’s revenge was not going smoothly and suggested seeking her help if there was any trouble.

Could it be that Merchant Lady Nuheng already knew some information in advance?

"I am a guest of Merchant Lord Xiu Xiang; he has favored me, and today you’re attacking my slave, a shameful act for a warrior." Li Yi quickly spoke after brief consideration.

In this world, promises and trust are above all else.

Not caring about the Xiu Xiang Family’s situation would mean he couldn’t stay in Beihuai City in the future, and he couldn’t leave Long Yu’s matter unaddressed.

Therefore, regardless of the final outcome, Li Yi felt the need to stand up now.
