Outside the inn, two streaks of light passed through the shadows of thousands of trees and headed straight into the distance.
Occasionally, a figure appeared, and it was Xu Tianxi and Old Yue.
Soon, the two arrived deep in the jungle and Zhisen's figure appeared in their sight.
"How is the search going, senior? Have you found any traces of those guys?"
Xu Tianxi flew to the ground and asked Zhisen, who closed his eyes and observed the surrounding environment, about the situation.
This time when he came out to chase the killer group, he certainly did not pin all his hopes on the cooperation of the Xingluo Empire. Xiao Changfeng had already found some intelligence for them, and forcing Xu Jiujiu to deliver the information would only make her hate Shrek even more.
What he did meant some unexpected disaster to Xu Jiujiu and the Xingluo Empire. Xu Jiujiu's temperament must have changed drastically after this incident, but he did not regret it. He was even happy that he seized this opportunity and put on a good show with the token that Zhang Lexuan gave him many years ago.
Xu Tianxi didn't want to put himself in any moral shackles or be labeled as a good person. In his philosophy, he should be as warm as the spring breeze to his own people and as brutal as thunder to his enemies, and he could do whatever it takes when necessary.
Shrek was his destined enemy, there was no room for negotiation, all he could do was seize every opportunity he could to destroy it.
He couldn't easily defeat Chen Xiaojie, and he didn't have any other suitable identity, so it was most reasonable for him to disguise himself as a disciple of Shrek's inner courtyard; the people from Xingluo Royal Academy took the initiative to bump into him, so it would be a waste not to use him.
Since I have already pretended, I might as well maximize the benefits of the vest.
The existence of the God King Tang is like a guillotine hanging over his head, forcing him to not relax at all. Everything he does now is to make his situation better and to give himself more time to become stronger in order to meet the future storms.
In the past, Yan Shaozhe forced him deeply but failed to kill him. Shrek will inevitably bear his revenge after he lies dormant and grows up, just as they were destroyed by the twelve-level fixed-type soul guide shells ten thousand years later.
Of course, there must be a bottom line when doing things.
First, you must not get involved with evil soul masters. If you can't beat or kill these guys, just forget it. If you can kill them, you must kill them. If you can't kill them for the time being, you can kill them after they develop.
Second, civilians must not be involved. It doesn't matter if soul masters fight to the death or fight to the death on the battlefield, but things like massacring civilians are not allowed.
Zhisen woke up, nodded seriously, and said:
"Young Master, I have roughly found the location of those guys. According to my investigation, the leader, the 'Messenger of Hate', may have reached the level of Soul King. There are three or four Soul Sect members, and more than thirty Soul Masters at or below the level of Soul Venerable. Do you want me to kill them first?"
"Soul King? He was a top Soul Master half a year ago. Has he been promoted now? His cultivation is not slow."
Xu Tianxi was surprised when he heard that. After thinking for a while, he clasped his hands and said seriously, "I will use Mirror Flower and Water Moon to sneak in. Senior, please go with me, but you don't have to act right away. I will go and test the strength of those guys, and you can catch them from behind."
"If I can defeat the 'Messenger of Hate', that would be the best. If I can't defeat him, I'll have to trouble you, Senior, to help me."
Zhisen nodded: "Okay, but the methods of evil soul masters have always been treacherous and difficult to deal with, young master, you must be careful!"
In the battle last night, he had witnessed the terrifying combat power of this young master in fighting across borders. The evil soul master Soul King was indeed dangerous and might pose a threat to the Soul Emperor, but Xu Tianxi was by no means an ordinary person.
"Old Yue, you are the most experienced. Please stay outside and help us clean up the mess. These assassins are all evil. If anyone escapes, don't let any of them go!"
After discussing the action with Zhisen, Xu Tianxi turned to Old Yue and solemnly told him about the final steps.
It is too disgusting to only care about the head and not the butt. If we are going to kill them, we must kill them all. None of these bastards who are used to raping and looting can be spared.
"yes."
Old Yue responded murderously, then hesitated for a moment and said, "But young master, you have never seen the methods of evil spirit masters before, so you may not know how cruel they are. How about I go in and kill them first and put an end to those bastards for you?"
Hearing this, Xu Tianxi's eyes moved slightly, and after a few seconds he shook his head:
"No need. If I really couldn't bear it, I would send them to death with artillery shells. After all, this is my experience, and I have to see what I have to see."
Old Yue nodded and said no more. The two of them followed Zhisen over the mountains and hills and came to a huge cave covered by many vines and branches.
Xu Tianxi used his Phantom Moon Mysterious Pupil to look at the situation from afar, and his eyes narrowed immediately. On the walls of the cave on both sides, there were pieces of rag-like things hanging. They were human skins, including the skins of many babies. He sighed:
"This is the first time I've met someone who knows how to kill himself. I'll send you off."
Activating the fifth-level flying soul guide on his back to achieve stealth effect, Xu Tianxi dived straight down.
"Second soul skill, Mirror Flower and Water Moon."
The invisible spiritual force enveloped the heaven and earth, and came to an end in this cave that covers a large area.
Inside the cave, the bandits who were either counting treasures or satisfying their animal desires seemed to have had their movements and breathing mysteriously stopped as if someone had pressed the pause button.
Several dark green vines rose from the ground, sweeping away some victims, followed by a huge explosion.
"Wow! Wow! Wow!"
One after another, the fixed-type soul-guided shells, burning with sparks, spread their wings and glided out, exploding in the huge cave. The ruthless energy raged and drowned every bandit whose mind was stagnant...
At this moment, thunder roared suddenly in the cave, and beams of lightning and ice shot out. Xu Tianxi hid in the darkness, like a ghost in the dark, calmly reaping lives.
Killing hundreds of bandits along the way, Xu Tianxi's face was as calm as a lake. He held a fourth-level soul guide ray in each hand and shot it left and right. There was no trace of warmth in his eyes that emitted cold moon gaze rays.
Killing people is really nothing big. You'll get numb to it after doing it so many times.
"Bang!"
A shot pierced through the defense of a bandit with Soul Sect cultivation. Xu Tianxi felt a gloomy evil aura and mental strength that was not weaker than Chen Xiaojie's from him. His eyes moved and he fired a Cold Moon Gaze Ray at his head.
"boom!"
With a single blow to the head, the Soul Sect bandit, who might be one of the Six Demon Soul Knights, had his head exploded like a watermelon. Red and white blood flowed all over the ground. He staggered and fell to the ground, ending his sinful life.
In the hand of this bandit, there was a piece of flesh and bone the size of a baby's arm. Xu Tianxi smelled a lot of human blood from it, and his eyes became sharper.
He fought very cautiously, delivering a third-level fixed-type soul-guided cannonball every time he moved forward a certain distance, completely eliminating the possibility of himself being attacked and destroying the bodies of all the bandits.
The power of the corpse explosion technique of the Death Messenger was terrifying, and he didn't dare to bet whether this "Messenger of Hate" had similar means.
Suddenly, a disgusting roar came from deep in the cave.
"Who dares to offend my abominable demon soul?! Prepare to die!"
"It is you who deserves death, so die!"
Xu Tianxi shouted loudly, took out the Gatling-style fourth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shell launching turret that he had assembled long ago from his storage ring, loaded six fourth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells into it, and then fired.
"Boom boom—"
At this moment, purple-red thunder and white ice illuminated the dim cave, and a terrifying energy wave that shook the world erupted.
The cave began to collapse on a large scale. Xu Tianxi, who was knocked back a distance by the recoil of the cannon, stared at the figure in the depths of the cave with eyes as bright as the moon, with a strong murderous intent rising in his eyes.
"Want to escape? I have never seen an evil soul master escape from my hands, and the same goes for you."
"Third soul skill, Cold Moon Watching Whale Fall!"
