Chapter 93 The Damaged Rat 4
Chapter 93 The Damaged Rat 4
The valley was a mess. Although they were tied up with ropes, it was still possible to tell that there were seven corpses. But falling from a height of over a hundred feet, even three martial arts practitioners would have been smashed into a bloody pulp.
Severed limbs and remains were scattered in every corner of the valley, with broken bones and internal organs mixed among the soil and rocks. The only things that remained somewhat intact were the heads. They rolled in the mud, covered in blood, their unclosed eyes displaying terror and despair.
The wind blew, carrying withered leaves and the pungent, nauseating smell of blood that filled the air.
"Couldn't they have sent a few of these hundred-damaged rats alive?" After quickly surveying the scene, Chu Huihui frowned and walked away, angrily instructing her subordinates, "Don't leave anyone here. Let the thirteen families come and collect the bodies themselves. The fat leader is dead, they're probably going crazy. Send a group of people to the old mountain lord's place and tell everyone to be on guard."
"Yes." The leading Chu family cultivator responded and led a group of cultivators straight to the mountaintop.
Wujialing had already inspected the scene and confirmed that three of the corpses belonged to mid-level cultivators from the Thirteen Families. Incidentally, they also collected three ropes woven from iron spider silk. As for the Qiankun bags and the like, they had naturally already ended up in the pockets of the Hundred-Loss Rat.
The Hundred-Benefit Rat's dramatic rebellious behavior shocked everyone. Most of the ordinary people had already taken refuge in the caves, and the few who were still physically strong retreated back to the area around the huts, working hard to reinforce their defenses with a mix of fear, apprehension, and a little relief.
The old mountain master's order to disperse his followers is still in effect, but no one mentions it anymore; everyone is waiting for the thirteen families to retaliate.
On the other side, Baisun Rat rode Ironwood Eagle directly to Wanjie Leopard's location, and called out to his elder brother from the air, announcing that he had betrayed the Great Sage, the reason being that he wanted to pledge allegiance to the Great Sage!
Wan Jie Bao was speechless, but there was nothing he could do. The Three Evils of Aolai were one entity, and Bai Sun Rat had already done it all. What else could he do? Look at the surrounding cultivators. Yesterday they were full of respect and enthusiasm, but in an instant, their eyes became very strange.
So they had no choice but to retreat. Wan Jiebao boarded his flying sword and went to the west to call out to Qianmian Beast, and together they withdrew from the encirclement of Chu Family Village.
The Thousand Tribulations Leopard remained silent throughout the journey, while the Thousand-Faced Beast was furious. This was because he had reached the pinnacle of Qi cultivation, and recently he had a sudden feeling that the opportunity to establish his foundation was in Fangcun Mountain. That's why he went to great lengths to ask Peng Yulang to act as his intermediary and accepted the mission from the Star Moon Sect to capture and kill Cai Fei.
As a result, the Hundred-Loss Rat pulled this stunt!
"No! I have to go back! It was you, Third Brother, who betrayed me, what business is it of mine!" Thousand-Faced Beast couldn't hold back any longer and turned Ironwood Eagle around to go back.
"Now that the third brother has done this, you won't be trusted by them anymore," Wan Jiebao sighed.
"Then I'll go and beg Xingyue, I'll join the Xingyue Sect directly!" the Thousand-Faced Beast shouted.
"Second Brother, have you thought this through?" Bai Sunshu shouted. "If the Great Sage shows himself and you go to Xingyue again, then we'll only be enemies for the rest of our lives, no longer brothers!"
"Is it my brother who ruined my foundation-building project?" the Thousand-Faced Beast sneered.
"I want to reach Foundation Establishment too, so why do I have to go to Fangcun?" Bai Sunshu shouted. "You're only 50 years old, you're still young. If you want Foundation Establishment Pills, I'll get them for you; if you want spirit stones, I'll rob them for you. Can't you try a few more times? Do you really have to beg Xingyue?"
"I sensed it, you know that!" The Thousand-Faced Beast retorted angrily. "You sensed it and didn't go? What do you know?!"
"Is your intuition always accurate?" Hundred-Benefit Rat pointed at Myriad Calamity Leopard and said, "Didn't Big Brother succeed by forcing his way through?"
"I had no choice," Wan Jiebao could only smile bitterly. "More than ten years ago, Aolai wasn't open yet. My senses were a thousand miles away, so I couldn't get out at all. I could only force my way through..."
"Isn't that the same thing! Fangcun is also a dead end for us!" Baisunshu exclaimed.
"You're just spouting nonsense..." The Thousand-Faced Beast pointed at the Hundred-Damaged Rat, too angry to speak.
"Anyway, I've already killed him, and I've said my piece—if you want to go to Fangcun, go ahead, but we're no longer brothers!" Bai Sunshu said, sticking his neck out.
"Fine, I won't do it then! Who the hell wants a stinking rat like you as a brother!" The Thousand-Faced Beast also turned hostile, starting his Ironwood Eagle and flying north. "Big brother, you decide. Foundation Establishment is a matter of utmost importance; I can't just let such a great opportunity pass me by!"
Ugh……
Wan Jie Leopard, who had roamed freely for decades and was known for his ferocity and decisiveness, could only sigh now, looking helplessly at Bai Sun Rat and saying, "Foundation Establishment is a major event, can't you just be patient?"
The Hundred-Benefit Rat said aggrievedly, "Big brother, do you know my surname is Su..."
"I know, I know, how many times have you said it—your surname is Su, a descendant of the Yellow Wind King, the Great Sage has treated your clan well, you cannot betray the Great Sage..."
Wan Jie Bao sighed again. He stared intently at Bai Sun Rat for a few moments, then turned to look at the Thousand-Faced Beast that was heading far away, and finally looked up at the towering five-fingered phantom in the distance.
"With the Great Sage watching over me, I wouldn't do something like throwing myself into the moon. But I've known the Second Brother for decades, sigh... We were here before you came. Back then we were called the Aolai Duo... Now that he's going to throw himself into the moon, I have to go see him off."
As Wan Jiebao spoke, he took out a bag and tossed it onto Bai Sunshu's Ironwood Eagle with a clang. By the time Bai Sunshu bent down to pick it up, Wan Jiebao had already ridden his flying sword and chased after Qianmian Beast.
"Third brother, let's end the story of the Three Evils of Aolai here. From now on, we'll go our separate ways. Take care."
The words left in the air declared the disbandment of the three notorious evils of Aolai.
The brothers who had worked together for more than ten years were torn apart by his own hands. Bai Sunshu stood there for a long time, and finally couldn't help but burst into tears. Tie Muying flew north and west in the air for a while, and finally flew into the depths of the mountains.
Leaving aside the Three Evils of Aolai, the news also stunned the thirteen camps.
Shocked, they immediately sent a message to the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the group—two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Thirteen Families had arrived. One had been keeping an eye on Kong Fande in Sushanfang, while the other was patrolling the Fengyulou area to prevent Fengyulou from secretly releasing people.
A quarter of an hour later, the Foundation Establishment cultivators arrived and flew directly to question Wan Jiebao, but they soon learned that the Three Evils of Aolai had collectively withdrawn.
The three evil ones were notorious, and with one of them at the Foundation Establishment stage, it was unrealistic to immediately pursue them for revenge. The thirteen families had nowhere to vent their anger, so they eventually gathered together, flew to Rotten Peach Peak in various flying machines, and hurled giant trees and rolling stones down, along with short guns and hidden weapons, in a great way to vent their frustration.
Enraged, the four children who had surrendered with the adults were also killed. When the sandbags came down, they were smashed into a bloody pulp, just like their parents.
The common warriors had already taken cover. Zeng Fuhu led a dozen cultivators to hide in various places. Two Six Harmony Formations were activated, mobilizing the wind-elemental spiritual energy in the vicinity to form two swirling winds on the hilltop, blowing boulders and logs to the sides to protect the hilltop.
Zeng Fuhu ordered that they only throw retaliatory attacks when the enemy was flying low, and not to attack proactively. He allowed the thirteen cultivators to curse and humiliate him in the air, smashing several objects with a series of loud bangs. The two sides of the small hill shook and the noise lasted for more than an hour before the thirteen families finally withdrew.
The hillside, battered by logs and boulders, was a mess, and the burning talismans had set fire to many trees. Many defensive points were damaged and needed repair.
The able-bodied young men who had been hiding in the cave came out to clean up the mess. Panic and unease filled everyone's hearts. Those who had decided to leave went to the stone chamber one by one to say goodbye to the old mountain master.
The old mountain lord gently comforted the villagers, and his calm attitude gradually influenced them. Their hearts slowly calmed down as they worked – listening to the old mountain lord would not be wrong; he would always find a way out for us.
