Terran Guardian - Chapter 120: Tumble.
After the news spread, a large number of Black Tiger Army troops had already assembled, surrounding the alley where the yard was located. The encirclement was water-tight.
At the same time, the people living along the alley were also woken up in the middle of the night, and then quietly moved out.
“Are you sure the person is inside?”
Shen Changqing looked at the dark alley ahead, with a calm expression on his face.
Wen Ce on the side nodded: “Yes. I have already asked everyone to surround the alley, inside and out. He absolutely has no chance of escaping.”
“Okay.”
Wen Ce’s answer made Shen Changqing understand that in some aspects, what the Black Tiger Army did was much more comprehensive than what he had thought.
“Since the location of the Barbarians has been determined, then there is no need to hesitate. You guys can stand guard here, and leave the rest to me!”
“Lord Shen, be careful.”
Wen Ce said in a deep voice.
The alley was narrow. If the Black Tiger Army entered, it would not be fit for fighting.
Without army formations, the strength of a single Black Tiger Army soldier was just in the Body Forging Realm.
In that case, casualties were inevitable.
So, only experts, such as Shen Changqing, could enter the fight, while the Black Tiger Army stood guard outside.
Shen Changqing then walked in alone.
[Tuk Tuk~]
The courtyard door was knocked on once again.
“Who is it?”
A vigilant voice sounded from behind the door.
Shen Changqing said lightly: “It’s the nightly checks.”
“Didn’t you check here just now? Why do you want to check it now?”
“What nonsense, are you scolding the Court?”
Shen Changqing’s voice became cold.
Hearing this, the voice behind the door didn’t dare to say anything, and could only helplessly open the courtyard door.
When the courtyard door opened, the man saw Shen Changqing standing at the door, but saw no one behind him.
For a moment, a bad premonition rose in his heart.
However, when the man recalled everything he had shown, he did not reveal the slightest clue, so he suppressed his restless heart and smiled at Shen Changqing.
“What does my Lord want to check?”
“What is being checked is not important, what is being taken is.”
“What is being taken?”
“It’s taking your life–”
Shen Changqing took a step and struck out his right palm, causing the man’s complexion to change instantly.
Without hesitation and facade, the man dodged. The wind, carried by the palm strike whistled past, instantly smashing the open courtyard door on one side.
“How did you discover me?”
After putting some distance, the man asked gloomily.
A powerful sinister aura rose from him, and his eyes changed from normal black to a green color.
It was just that he couldn’t figure out how he was exposed.
From start to finish, he was well hidden and had not leaked their whereabouts.
“It’s time to kill the Barbarians!”
Shen Changqing’s expression was indifferent. The Cold Moon Sword at his waist was unsheathed, and the stern Sword Qi slashed out of the air.
Aware of the threat of the Sword Qi, the man’s complexion changed again. His toes tapped lightly, and his body disappeared in place like a ghost.
A gloomy wind then blew and a palm was struck towards Shen Changqing’s back.
Armor Qi (body protection)!
The palm strike broke the Qi protection, while the remaining force fell on Shen Changqing’s body.
Boom-
The man’s complexion suddenly changed greatly. It was because when his palm struck the opponent’s back, it felt like he was not hitting a body, but an extremely hard diamond.
“How is that possible!”
He had never seen someone who could resist his attack with just their body.
However, even if the man was reluctant to believe it, the fact was right in front of him.
Since the attack didn’t work, he wanted to pull away.
It was just that, Shen Changqing didn’t let the other party leave. When the attack landed on his back, Shen Changqing had already turned around and swung his sword, slashing through the man’s body with lightning speed.
Blood rained down.
The man covered his shoulders and explosively retreated.
Shen Changqing stomped the ground hard with his right foot, and his body immediately shot out.
Seeing this, the man didn’t dare to fight head-on. He could only move left and right, trying to avoid Shen Changqing’s attack.
The strength of this person in front of him (Shen Changqing) was completely beyond the limit he could bear.
Not only was the other party physically strong, his speed was also extremely fast and he hit hard.
If it weren’t for the fact that there wasn’t any True Intent, the man would have thought that Shen Changqing was a Grandmaster.
At this time, a thought then popped into his mind.
Half-step Grandmaster Realm!
The opponent was a half-step Grandmaster Realm expert.
“When was there a half-step Grandmaster in Jin City? It’s impossible. If there really is a half-step Grandmaster, it’s impossible to have no news at all—”
The man avoided Shen Changqing’s attack, while recalling things in his mind that he may have neglected.
It’s a pity that no matter what he thought, he never understood why there was a half-step Grandmaster in Jin City.
However, there was no need to think too much right now. The most important thing was to survive.
Thinking of this, as the man was dodging, he took out a small black flag the size of a palm from his sleeve.
Immediately after, the small flag fluttered and black mist gushed out from it. A sinister aura instantly spread.
A monster then came out of the black fog and attacked Shen Changqing.
“Ridiculous–”
Shen Changqing’s expression remained unchanged when he saw the monster walking out of the black mist and simply swung his sword.
“Ahhh~!”
The monster let out a shrill scream, and its body dissipated into the air.
A familiar feeling then came over.
Though, Shen Changqing didn’t pause, and continued to attack the man.
His sword slashed through the air, along with hot Qi, and an arm fell to the ground.
Without waiting for the man to scream, Shen Changqing took a step closer and struck his palm out. The terrifying palm force sunk the opponent’s chest in an instant. A big mouthful of blood was coughed out of the man’s mouth.
The man’s body was like a tumbleweed, tumbling around.
After landing, the man looked like he was going to die at any moment.
From the beginning of the battle to the present, he had been constantly pressured and had no room to fight back.
The strength Shen Changqing showed was so powerful that it made him desperate.
Seeing the other party walking slowly towards him, with the tip of the sword pointed diagonally to the ground, and a hot aura flowing along the snow-white blade, the threat of death suddenly surfaced in the man’s heart.
“Don’t—”
“Don’t kill—”
The man opened his mouth to speak with difficulty.
But before he could finish speaking, the sword had already chopped off his head. His blood was like a terrifying poison that corroded a large piece of the ground.
After killing the man, a wave of Killing Value poured into the panel.
However, Shen Changqing did not leisurely check it just yet, and instead turned to look at the location of the house.
He felt a powerful aura from there.
At the same time, in the blood pool.
When the man was beheaded, Zhou Qin soaked in the blood pool, suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes. Her pupils were completely scarlet.
[Boom~]!
The blood pool vibrated.
Zhou Qin seemed to have turned into a shadow of blood, heading straight for the outside of the secret room.
[Bang-]
The wall shattered, and an extremely rich bloody smell rushed to Shen Changqing’s face.
Shen Changqing suddenly struck his palm out, just in time to collide with the blood-red shadow.
As the two terrifying forces collided, Shen Changqing’s feet seemed to be rooted. He stood still, while the blood shadow flew straight out.
It was only when the blood-red shadow landed did he see its exact appearance.
“A Corpse Puppet?”
Shen Changqing didn’t know Zhou Qin, but the appearance of the person in front of him made him instinctively think of a Corpse Puppet.
However, she was obviously different from ordinary Corpse Puppets.
The strength Zhou Qin just showed was not weaker than the man who Shen Changqing had just killed.
After being briefly stunned, Shen Changqing came back to his senses and immediately slashed at Zhou Qin.
Whatever she was, he will kill her.
- ווו
Since the man was not Shen Changqing’s opponent, Zhou Qin was naturally not his opponent either.
In just a few rounds, the opponent was killed.
Looking at Zhou Qin’s corpse, Shen Changqing looked at his panel, but the Killing Value did not increase. He couldn’t help, but shake his head.
“Such a pity!”
With Zhou Qin’s strength, if he could gain Killing Value, it will undoubtedly be a huge gain.
But since the other party was not a monster, but a puppet, there was no way to earn Killing Value.
Standing still, Shen Changqing’s perception spread out. He thoroughly checked the inside and outside of the yard. After confirming that there were no remaining problems, he turned and left.
Outside the alley, the Black Tiger Army was still surrounding the area.
The sound of fighting inside could be heard clearly by those outside.
“Lord Wen, is it really okay to let Lord Shen go in alone? Won’t there be any problems?”
Listening to the movement of the battle, someone couldn’t help but ask.
Wen Ce shook his head: “You underestimate Lord Shen too much. There is no one in Jin City who can compete with Lord Shen. A small Barbarian is nothing against Lord Shen’s strength.”
“We just need to stay here and ensure that the Barbarian won’t run away.”
Wen Ce had a great amount of confidence in Shen Changing’s strength.
Although he had never really seen Shen Changqing make a move, judging from the overall aspects, his strength should be extraordinary.
That Barbarian might be strong, but he was not necessarily Shen Changqing’s opponent.
