BXBX NOVEL Chapter 149 A Sudden Ambush
Two more weeks later.
"Hmmm, didn\'t expect it would come down to this." Gale looked at the sight in front of him, which he could only describe in one word: hell.
Rows and rows of dead bodies consisted of men and beasts. Their blood mixed together, creating a four-inch-high lake that reeked of a musky smell. This smell inundated everyone\'s nose, and it spread throughout the town too.
Gale was currently leaning his back on a tree while standing on a thick branch. All his eyes could see now was the desperation of soldiers who couldn\'t keep up with the beasts, which were now at the Golden Core Realm and the Nascent Soul Realm.
Sure, they have Vik and other big guys to handle these, but there were so many numbers that they were not able to spare a free hand on the other side. The frown on everyone\'s face doubled when they were met with the human cultivators. Unlike the beasts, they had combat senses, which made them more difficult and more deadly.
Also, it wasn\'t like Vik and others didn\'t do anything, the hypnotized beasts and human cultivators showed a sign of ending.
But it was still far from ending.
"I guess it is time for me to join the fun." Gale vanished from his spot while smiling.
Gale has been dual cultivating with the girls steadily these past two weeks, which surprisingly helped him break through to the Fourth Stage Golden Core Realm. Well, Gale could put the main culprit of this at Julie, who came back two or three times.
But the way the current situation was accelerating, Gale felt he couldn\'t sit still anymore. So, he decided to go to the bloodied battlefield to increase his body cultivation realm. He knew he needed quality blood essence, but when the quantity of a certain thing exceeds comprehension, the quality doesn\'t matter anymore.
…
On the main battlefield, southeast of Highload Town.
PuchiPuchi….
The sound of meat getting sliced apart sounded constantly, while letting anyone see the instigator of these.
However, at a certain point, this stopped, and what was left behind were beasts with their vital parts being cut apart. The instigator\'s appearance was also visible, and it was none other than Yuki.
Yuki swiped his katana to the right, making the blood on it fling away. Then he dashed forward while having nine sword shadows, which were mostly made of his sword intent floating side by side with his katana. " [ Ten Sword Cutter ] "
Yuki danced around the Golden Core Realm cultivators and beasts, mowing them down despite being in the Ninth Stage Foundation Establishment realm.
" [ Ice Lotus ] " A giant ice lotus made of fire sprung beside Yuki that froze anyone and anything it touched.
Freya thrust her spear, which froze any enemy near her. After breaking through to the First Stage Golden Core Realm, her power was showing its edges more and more.
On the far right corner of this battlefield was Ban, who has become an influential figure in the Burnheart Family in these two weeks. His strength and chivalry were truly something unique in the Burnheart Family which was helping the public forget about the sins their ancestor made, but it was still far from being washed away.
Bang
A jet of red spiritual energy blasted the beasts and cultivators bodies while not indicating any sign of stopping. Ban could also take down a handful of Golden Core Realm enemies after breaking through to the Second Stage Golden Core Realm.
On the far left corner was last but not least Jack, who was showing his immense skill in swordplay, not letting any of his enemies catch a single shadow of him.
He might not have broken through to the Golden Core Realm as he was still at the Ninth Stage Foundation Realm, but that shouldn\'t let people undermine his power.
The four have grown exponentially these past few weeks, which has been a great help in defending this town.
They were not the only ones who were shining. Gale\'s harem members were great on their own.
First and foremost, Kaley, who didn\'t join the harem according to the system but was in Gale\'s heart, finally had her moment to shine.
She was the first person and first woman to be able to do blacksmithing, and she was excellent at it. The weapon he supplied to the soldiers has brought her much praise, making her sought after by many. Even the people from nearby towns wanted to come here to order weapons from her, and for that reason, the flow of merchants increased, helping the town drastically.
Then came Jasmine, who was currently scouting the entire perimeter of the town to see if there had been any kind of ambush or not.
\'Looks like they are out of beasts and cultivators to send to other places.\' Jasmine pondered, giving her surroundings one last look.
Seeing her work was done for now, she headed toward the town to deliver this message to Julie and let her know. As she was passing through the tree gaps, she pondered. \'I do not know when the days will return to normal and how othe-\'
Jasmine was not able to finish her thought process as she noticed multiple attacks coming towards her direction.
Jasmine quickly merged into the shadows and fled far away.
BANG
The place she was just earlier had an explosion that destroyed the surrounding tree tops.
Jasmine emerged out of the tree shadow and looked at the culprits of this sudden ambush. She saw many cultivators in tattered clothes standing on branches and grounds. Their eyes were blank and their bodies were limp but they had strong vitality in their bodies that made people think they were not dead.
Jasmine\'s eyes widened in shock, as she couldn\'t understand how they found her as she was sure every single movement she made was as secretive as possible. \'Is there a traitor among us, or the mastermind is keeping a close eye on us?\'
However, Jasmine had no time to think as the hypnotized cultivators were rushing at her.
Jasmine quickly made a retreat toward the town, knowing she had not much chance against them as some were close to being at the Eight Stage Golden Core Realm while she had just broken through to the First Stage Golden Core Realm recently.
