Chapter 130: Spies From the Deep-Sea Ghost Domain, an Unexpected Incident!
While the soldiers were regrouping, a figure muttered to himself.
Although he hadn’t seen Victor participate in the tournament, he had obtained quite a bit of information.
Aside from his sword moves, Victor’s trump card also had a strange golden flame.
“If I don’t count the golden flame, what Victor displayed just now should be his full strength.
“He should be able to defeat a cultivator at the 11th level of the spirit gathering realm, as well as some ordinary cultivators at the 12th level of spirit gathering realm. It’s pretty much what I have expected.
“He’s not my match, but if I want to make a move, I have to make sure that I kill him… Otherwise, it’ll be very troublesome!”
The trusted aide arranged by the Deep-sea Ghost Domain was at the late stage of the 12th level of the spirit gathering realm, but his combat strength was much stronger than a cultivator at the late stage of the 12th level of the spirit gathering realm. He was a disciple of the Deep-sea Ghost Domain after all.
The wolf pack retreated, and the casualties were counted. More than 600 soldiers were lost.
This casualty was considered very good.
After Victor returned to Qingshan Town, he began to recover in seclusion. In truth, he had not used up much of his spiritual energy in the first place. In addition to his powerful recovery ability, his spiritual energy had almost been replenished. He was only in seclusion to put on an act.
Victor planned to lure the snake out of its hole and attack it unexpectedly.
After the victory of the first battle, the morale of the Qingshan defense team had soared. However, now was not the time to celebrate. There might be other beast groups behind them, so they had to hold on until reinforcements arrived.
The dinner was very sumptuous. The distinguished families took out good meat and food and provided enough to eat.
The only regret was that they could not drink alcohol. The soldiers ate to their heart’s content, so they used water as a substitute for alcohol.
During the banquet, the soldiers kept talking about the scene of Victor charging into the large group of wolves and slaughtering the Fire-scaled Python.
In the eyes of ordinary soldiers, this was simply a legend.
“My knowledge was too shallow. The personal disciple of the Heavenly Sword Mountain was actually able to reach such a level of strength.
“He was only at the ninth level of the spirit gathering realm, yet he was able to display such strength.”
Qi Kai looked at the warm light that shot out from Victor’s closed-door cultivation tent, and his emotions were complicated.
The difference was too great!
The difference was so big that he couldn’t comprehend it. A personal disciple of the Heavenly Sword Mountain, level nine spirit gathering realm cultivator, was actually at least five times stronger than him, a cultivator of the eighth level of the spirit gathering realm!
He simply couldn’t imagine that this disciple actually came from an outside sect, and even became a personal disciple of a mystic realm sect.
That night, when Victor went out, all the soldiers stopped and saluted Victor when they saw him.
Soldiers respected the strong, not to mention the battle during the day. Because of Victor’s presence, their injuries were greatly reduced.
“Victor!”
A big man wearing leather armor walked up with a bright smile. This person was the captain of the defense team, Qi Kai.
“Captain Qi.”
Victor had a good impression of this man. When the wolves attacked, he was almost behind him, guarding the second front.
He was fearless in battle. Other than himself, Qi Kai had killed the most beasts.
“Victor, you’re too polite. Just call me Old Qi.”
“How are the casualties in the army?”
Victor was very concerned about the army. Without an army, they would not be able to stop the beast tide.
If Victor was alone, the huge group of beasts would not stop to fight with him. Instead, they would charge into Qingshan Town in one go. The ten-meter city wall of Qingshan Town only required a few jumps for high-level beasts.
In this way, no matter how many Victor killed, it would be useless.
“We lost more than 50 archers, around 200 spear throwers, and 300 over shield soldiers. There are still some who were seriously injured and unable to fight…”
As Qi Kai was speaking, he suddenly heard the cries of flying beasts coming from the military camp. They were louder than normal flying beasts.
“Huh? There are still survivors? Or reinforcements?”
Soon, these two ideas were rejected by Victor. He had descended from the sky. The fierce beasts in the sky had long been slaughtered. Some of the beasts that were suppressing their flight had been killed by the spear throwers.
It had only been a day since he had sent the news from the relay station. It was impossible for reinforcements to arrive so quickly.
The two of them left the camp and took a look. They saw a huge flying beast that was four to five times larger than the average flying beast circling in the air. The wings of the flying beast were golden in color.
Victor had seen the messenger of Green Phoenix Mountain riding on this golden-winged flying beast. It seemed to have the bloodline of a divine beast. Its speed was extremely fast, and its carrying capacity was ten times more than a normal flying beast’s.
Anyone who could ride on this golden-winged flying beast must be from a secret realm sect.
The giant beast swooped down, stirring up a strong wind that blew four to five military tents away.
The soldiers in the tents were also blown to the side. A few people fell heavily to the ground, bruising their bodies.
“Damn it! Who are they to be so arrogant?”
Qi Kai was a straightforward person. At first, he thought that it would be reinforcements. But not only did the other party barge into the camp, they even overturned the tents. He was furious.
“Junior sister, we have finally arrived at a place where there are people. These four to five days have been hard on you. The outside world is full of barbarians living in the wilderness. There isn’t even a place to take a bath.”
Two people jumped down from the back of the flying beast.
A blue-haired young man who looked to be in his mid-twenties with a long sword on his back said to a girl around the age of 15 beside him.
Victor narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this blue-haired young man.
The other party’s cultivation had reached the 12th level of the spirit gathering realm. It could be considered that he had some ability coming from a sect. Moreover, seeing that the other party had broken through to the 12th level of the spirit gathering realm at such a young age, he should at least be a top-level inner disciple or even be a core disciple.
The girl whom he called junior sister was wearing a white dress with a faint crescent symbol embroidered on the right chest. She had a delicate and pretty appearance and was beautiful in both temperament and appearance.
She expressionlessly swept her gaze over the place and was speechless. It was obvious that she didn’t have any desire to speak.
“Junior sister, the beast tide is everywhere now, and we don’t have any place to stay. Let’s make do with staying here for the time being.”
“Okay…” the girl barely responded and didn’t say anything else.
The blue-haired young man’s heart was filled with joy. He had finally persuaded his junior sister. As long as she could stay in a place and take a breather, his beautiful wish would almost be fulfilled.
The blue-haired young man was about to say something else when an angry voice interrupted him.
“Who are you people?
“You intruded the military camp! You even injured our soldiers!”
“You’re even talking as if there’s no one else here. What kind of place do you think this is?! Men!”
Qi Kai was filled with righteousness. The other party was too arrogant.
Along with the sound of weapons clashing, the surrounding soldiers drew their weapons. More than a dozen bows and arrows were drawn, and the arrowheads pointed straight at the blue-haired youth.
Qi Kai’s few city-guarding brothers also surrounded him with their weapons. These people were even more furious. If Qi Kai had not waved his hand to stop them, they would have immediately attacked.
