Lord Zhang Fei

Chapter 45: Attack Of The Demons [V]

Zhang Fei looked back at his clansmen, his brows furrowed tightly, and he couldn’t help saying to Zhang Mu Tuo, “Father, the demons are now chasing after us. I think we should run separately. This way, the chances of us escaping are better.”

Zhang Mu Tuo looked at the clansmen around him, all of them were already tired and sweating profusely. In normal times, running ten miles was nothing to these clansmen. But today was different. After a sudden and panicky encounter, no matter how good the physical strength was, it wouldn’t hold it. After all, every one of the villagers was an ordinary human, and there was no spiritual power to rely on.

Hearing the words, all the clansmen immediately said. “Patriarch, you go first, leave us alone.”

Zhang Fei also quickly said. “Don’t delay any longer, father. The demons will be here in a blink of an eye. I think everyone should choose a direction and run separately. Anyone that can’t run should find a secret place to hide.”

Zhang Fei turned his head and said to Mammoth. “Uncle Mammoth, you take Shuang and father, while mother take me, and let’s fly away quickly. When flying, we will release spiritual power fluctuations, which can also attract the attention of the demons, and their pursuit of the villagers will ease. They won’t go after the clansmen anymore.”

Zhang Mu Tuo was originally reluctant to give up his clan, but he had suffered two clan annihilations in his life, which was a huge blow to him. After finally escaping with more than a dozen people, only for him to throw them away now? Zhang Mu Tuo couldn’t bring himself to do anything as such.

But when Zhang Fei said that using spiritual power to attract the attention of the demons might save the tribesmen, Zhang Mu Tuo nodded in agreement. This was also where Zhang Fei was smart. He knew too much about his father’s upright character.

.....

The idea was accepted, and after everyone agreed on the meeting place, they all dispersed immediately. Afraid of being discovered by the demons, Zhang Fei and the others did not dare to fly into the sky, and only used a small amount of spiritual power to do low-altitude jumping in the woods.

After the second son of the dragon demon, Haoyan, rushed into the forest with three bear demons, he quickly searched along the edge of the forest. Haoyan released a large amount of mental power to sense the surrounding movement, any disturbance within a radius of one kilometer was under Haoyan’s perception.

After discovering something, Hao Yan suddenly fell from the sky and landed on a bush beside a tree. There were several broken branches on the tree, and there were also scratch marks not far ahead. It looked like it had just been scraped off, and there was even some slime oozing out from the broken part.

The direction in which the branch was broken also indicated the direction of the humans escape.

“Hey, let’s see where you’re all going.” Hao Yan threw the broken branch in his hand away and shouted at the three bear demons, “Follow me.”

After that, Hao Yan lifted his leg and lightly tapped on the floor, and his body shot forward quickly. At the same time, all his telepathic powers are concentrated in front of them, constantly searching for the footprints and signs left by the fleeing humans.

Not far from the chase, Hao Yan suddenly felt a slight fluctuation of spiritual power coming from the front. “I found it.”

Hao Yan was overjoyed, and immediately rushed into the sky, looking in one particular direction. There was no one in sight, but without the trees blocking his views, Hao Yan felt more certain that there was a slight fluctuation of spiritual power coming from that specific direction.

Hmm, still want to run away? Hao Yan immediately gestured towards the bear demons below to follow the direction ahead, and he himself quickly flew in the direction of the spiritual power.

“Heaven’s tears, you’re discovered.” The anxious voice of Taoist Feng Mo suddenly came from his mind. “There is a big waterfall in front of you, on the left, go there. Maybe you can use the cover of the waterfall to escape the incoming disaster.”

Hearing this, Zhang Fei quickly directed everyone to fly towards the waterfall.

In the near distance, they heard the huge roar of the waterfall, and there was a faint turbulent energy brought by the waterfall in the air.

Zhang Fei couldn’t help shouting to everyone, “Hurry up. Rush to the waterfall and fly along the water, so we won’t be easily detected by the demons.”.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a dragon roar, not too far from his position followed by a burst of laughter.

“Hahaha. Little humans, let’s see where you’re going.”

Everyone looked back, towards the sky, and saw that there was someone chasing after them in midair. Dark waves surging all over his body, obviously the cultivation base of this figure was extraordinary. They couldn’t help urging their spiritual power forward, in order to escape to the waterfall.

“Not good. We’re discovered.” Mammoth couldn’t help shouting, and suddenly wanted to stop and fight with the demons.

A light suddenly appeared in front of the dark forest, indicating they had already reached the waterfall. Everyone shouted, and suddenly accelerated their flight towards the light.

At this moment, a voice came from behind. “Do you still want to run?”

As soon as the voice fell, everyone only felt that a huge fluctuation of spiritual power suddenly came from the direction of the light in front of them. A large dragon, formed from the essence of water, with a thickness of more than ten meters suddenly appeared in front of them.

“Not good.” Xuan and Mammoth said in chorus, and immediately veered left and right, respectively, escaping the attack of the water dragon in a thrilling manner. But seeing this, the giant water dragon slanted, its head and tail intersected in a ring, and the huge body immediately encircled everyone.

Under the control of Hao Yan’s spiritual power, the huge water dragon condensed from the waterfall water had already turned into a pitch-black ink color, which was very strange.

“Humans, in front of this son, do you still want to escape? Hurry up and die obediently.” Hao Yan hovered high in the sky and said contemptuously to everyone.

Dragons were born with the ability to control water and fire, and yet, you wanted to use water to escape me? In Hao Yan’s view, it seemed like a big joke.

When Hao Yan saw the humans fleeing to the water, it was as if he had arrived at his own home, so he was no longer in a hurry. He motivated the water dragon to trap everyone in place, and slowly flew towards them, waiting for the bear demon to follow. To deal with these human beings by himself, Hao Yan disdained the thought of it.

When Xuan and Mammoth saw this, they immediately released spirit crystals to guard against Hao Yan’s attack.

After Wang Zhang Mu Tuo saw the appearance of the chasing demon, he immediately trembled with apprehension. He shouted loudly. “Hao Yan? It’s you again. What grudges do I have with you, that you’re killing my clan over and over again?”

“Huh? Human, do you know this young master?” Hao Yan couldn’t help dropping from the sky, and looked at Zhang Mu Tuo strangely, thinking about this face in his heart. The water dragon also gradually receded in the process of Haoyan’s whereabouts.

“So it’s you?” Hao Yan finally recognized Zhang Mu Tuo, and couldn’t help but say strangely. “You exploded your spirit crystals, and you didn’t even die?”

Wang Zhang Mu Tuo couldn’t help laughing bitterly. “Hahaha. Die? I can’t die. I want to leave this cruel life and watch you die at the feet of my fellow human beings, in order to comfort the spirits of my dead people in the heavens.”

“Humph. Want to watch me die? I’m afraid, you won’t have this chance.” Hao Yan said, raising his hand, dozens of black streamers immediately shot straight towards Wang Zhang Mu Tuo and everyone. The last time, this forsaken human escaped from his own hands, Hao Yan was suddenly very angry, and he no longer had the patience to wait for the three demons to make a move.

“Patriarch, go. I’ll be here to stop him.” A flash of light appeared in front of Mammoth, and a huge shield, with a height of more than ten meters in size and a thickness of about three meters suddenly blocked Zhang Fei’s group from the attack. Completely isolating everyone from Hao Yan.

The Giant Spirit Aegis was the only defensive magic that mammoths cultivate. It could be big or small, and it could be varied.

As soon as the giant shield was formed, a loud noise like a bell ringing on the giant shield was heard. Immediately afterwards, the crashing sound kept coming.

Mammoth only felt that his chest was hit a few times by a giant hammer, and a mouthful of blood could not be suppressed by him, and it streaked down the corner of his mouth.

“Patriarch, go. For Fei’er, you must escape alive.” Mammoth saw Wang Zhang Mu Tuo and the others wanting to go forward desperately, and immediately suppressed the injury and shouted anxiously.

At this time, there were hurried footsteps from the depths of the forest, as if another chasing demons had arrived.

Zhang Fei. Yes, we must send Zhang Fei’er away safely. Zhang Mu Tuo was ruthless, and suddenly shouted at Xuan. “Go.”

Xuan gritted her teeth, and took a last look at the mammoth, one in each hand, pulled up Zhang Mu Tuo and Zhang Fei and flew towards the waterfall.

Before leaving, she did not forget to shout to Shuang, “Shuang’er, come with me.”

As soon as the words fell, dozens of earth spears suddenly burst up from the ground. Poor Shuang, as soon as she lifted her foot, she was nailed to the spot by several earth spears. She didn’t even uttered a single cry before her essence disappeared.

“Sister.” Zhang Fei suddenly shouted. There was darkness in front of his eyes, and tears came out of his eyes instantly. Reaching out his hand, Zhang Fei tried to grab Shuang, but the distance was getting farther and farther.

Xuan endured the grief, grabbed her husband and son with both hands, and flew towards the waterfall with all her might.

There were several roars of bear demons from behind.
