Chapter 372: The wind blows the straw hat, and the quail is pinned down
the imperial teacher, dou xiu, and shi ji all emerged from the shadows.
wu chang and the others, with puzzled expressions, crossed the moat and approached them.
du ge remained still, observing the battlefield, trying to find any clues, but he saw nothing. apart from xiang li and the others who had fallen from the city wall, there were no signs of a fight at the scene.
xiang li asked, "old gao, what happened? why are we outside the city? did wei jiuchou and his men come by? where's du ge?"
everyone shook their heads.
"the enemy must have a skill that erases memories," gao ming frowned as he opened his personal interface. "the top ten rankings haven't changed. du ge must have gone after the enemy."
"what about us?" ge zong asked.
"let's follow and see!" gao ming leapt up to investigate.
but as soon as he took off, he fell straight down, eyes closed as if asleep, yet his body continued to stride forward.
"what happened?" the imperial teacher and the others turned abruptly, looking across.
wei jiuchou and his six men were charging towards them.
the imperial teacher and the others were ready to fight but suddenly lost control of their bodies, synchronizing with wei jiuchou's movements, and involuntarily rushed towards them.
the six people behind wei jiuchou had already drawn their weapons, ready to strike as soon as they clashed.
"what the hell is this skill?" ge zong exclaimed.
"think of something quick," wu chang said.
"where's du ge?" xiang li shouted in panic.
across from them, a seductive woman said, "brother wei, leng shi hasn't come out."
"old lu, go lure him out. xiaofeng, leng shi is still in the same spot, right?" wei jiuchou glanced at du ge's hiding place and quickly gave orders.
"yes," replied a boy of about thirteen or fourteen.
an old man in his seventies, who had never spoken in the group, suddenly turned and charged towards du ge's position.
...
what the hell?
he was discovered?
du ge was shocked. how did the enemy know their setup so well?
what exactly happened just now?
how did wei jiuchou control everyone?
but at this moment, the two groups were about to collide, leaving du ge no time to think.
you want to lure me out? i refuse to come out!
ignoring the old man charging at him, du ge unleashed a seven-orifice touch directly at wei jiuchou.
caught off guard, wei jiuchou was hit and jumped up with a howl, causing gao ming and the others to jump up as well...
at this moment, the old man called old lu had already reached du ge. instead of attacking du ge, he swung his blade at the dense bushes where du ge was hiding. but how could his speed compare to du ge's?
as he swung his blade, du ge's second seven-orifice touch had already hit him.
boom!
thud!
thud!
thud!
including wei jiuchou, everyone was pierced by countless swords, dying with their eyes wide open, looking at gao ming and the others just a few steps away, their expressions full of unwillingness.
anyone who had been hit by sword eighteen once couldn't avoid it a second time. the image of sword eighteen was deeply ingrained in their minds, and they would reflexively recall its power, making it impossible not to die.
...
"damn!"
on dongling pass, pei ma'er swallowed hard, "are you crazy? is this really sword eighteen?"
"brother pei, let's retreat!" the young man with a broken leg licked his lips, "wei jiuchou and his seven men lost, and there's just the two of us..."
"the stronger sword eighteen is, the faster they die." pei ma'er remained unmoved, his eyes fixed on the naked yunyao, whose clothes had been burned off, "this is our chance. i want them to kill each other..."
looking at the people below the city, pei ma'er instantly activated his skill.
the people who had just breathed a sigh of relief suddenly had red eyes.
"wei jiuchou, come and face sword eighteen." gao ming pointed at xiang li in front of him and shouted.
"afraid of you? bring it on!" xiang li, not knowing what she saw, charged at gao ming with red eyes, activating her skill. but despite their fierce shouts, nothing happened.
in the chaos, with their minds unclear, how could they trigger the power of sword eighteen?
wu chang charged at ge zong, who immediately did a handstand. wu chang, influenced by the skill, started flipping in front of ge zong...
cao lin slashed at the imperial teacher, who fought back with his sword. but as soon as their weapons clashed, they were affected by ge zong's skill. one raised his left leg, doing a split, while the other bent down to bite his own crotch...
only dou xiu and shi ji, who were farther away, were temporarily unaffected, fighting each other with real weapons...
...
"what’s happening?" pei ma'er was dumbfounded, "where's sword eighteen?"
"brother pei, could it be they weren't affected by the skill and are just fooling you?" the young man with a broken leg asked, "otherwise, one move of sword eighteen should have killed everyone here. leng shi dared to lure you out, he must have a backup plan..."
"sword eighteen has a problem." pei ma'er's expression turned serious, and he made a swift decision, "let's go."
"no way." a loud shout rang out as du ge shot forward, swinging the admonition cane at pei ma'er.
pei ma'er was shocked, blurting out, "how are you not controlled?"
but then he saw du ge's red eyes.
this was clearly a sign of being controlled.
pei ma'er was stunned, not understanding what had happened, as the cane smashed heavily on his raised arm.
crack!
his arm broke!
but pei ma'er felt no pain. he only felt a rush of heat, a dizzying spin, and everyone around him seemed to disappear.
in his eyes, only du ge remained, and this person seemed to deserve all his passion. pei ma'er involuntarily reached out to hug du ge, but what greeted him was a fierce blow.
the admonition cane, with a fierce wind, smashed into his temple, sweeping away half of his head with immense force...
