Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1744: Chapter 1743: Four Scheming Old Codgers

Qingxue’s grave injuries brought her to death’s door, driving Bai Yi into a fury; he had no more scruples, knowing it was a fight to the death—what was there to hesitate about? Fight on!

Bai Yi wielded the Cheng Ying Sword, slashing towards the man in black, who never expected that his negligence and contempt would lead him to the brink of total annihilation, killed by Bai Yi’s Cheng Ying Sword!

After killing the man in black, Bai Yi held the gravely injured Qingxue, watching helplessly as the strange runes relentlessly destroyed Qingxue’s body, watching her inch closer to total annihilation, while Bai Yi was powerless; these runes were too strange and powerful.

Boom!

In his despair, Bai Yi raised his hand and with a gesture destroyed the old parchment in the air, reducing it to ashes, even though an elder’s voice had just called out for him to stop, Bai Yi did not pause. Because it was this old parchment that led to the rabbit clan’s demise, it was this old parchment that forced him to watch Qingxue approach death. All of this was because of this old parchment. Bai Yi truly felt weary and wanted to destroy this root of evil!

”Why are you so foolish?” Qingxue asked, looking at Bai Yi, a sense of heartache in her eyes.

”Enough, really enough. For the rest of the days, I just want to be with you, away from the conflicts of the Martial Arts World!” Bai Yi said with a smile.

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

Four figures appeared around Bai Yi and Qingxue: four elders from the Fox Clan and Wolf Clan. These four old fellows were very powerful, with the weakest at the Mid-stage Martial Saint realm, and even possessing those at the Late Stage Martial Saint realm. The four surrounded Bai Yi, looking coldly!

”Hand over the Cultivation Treasure, and you’ll die swiftly!” one old fellow from the Fox Clan said coldly.

”It’s already destroyed, can’t you see?” Bai Yi said disdainfully.

”Humph, then both of you can die!” another elder from the Fox Clan said fiercely.

”It doesn’t matter anymore, come on, let us die together!” Bai Yi said with a smile.

Just as the two elders from the Fox Clan wanted to kill Bai Yi, a senior from the Wolf Clan intervened to stop them; they did not want Bai Yi to die, at least not right now!

”Impossible, this child killed our Langtian, how can we let him die so easily?” a senior from the Wolf Clan said coldly.

”That’s right, he killed so many of our Wolf Clan’s experts, even Langtian was killed by him. We must take him back to the Wolf Clan, give him a thousand cuts to account for our people!” another Wolf Clan elder echoed.

”Ridiculous, he only killed your Wolf Clan’s experts, didn’t he kill any of our Fox Clan’s experts? Since you’re saying this, we from the Fox Clan must also take him back, to give an account to all our clan members!” said the first elder from the Fox Clan, frowning.

”Yes, either this child and this girl perish here, or we from the Fox Clan will take them away. There are only these two possibilities!” another elder from the Fox Clan said fiercely.

”Are you saying you won’t let us take him away?” an elder from the Wolf Clan stepped forward, his body radiating a powerful force!

”Seems like you intend to stop us?” another Wolf Clan elder strongly questioned.

”We will stop you, your smug plans won’t succeed!” an elder from the Fox Clan said powerfully, his aura magnified innumerably.

”We can fight, we won’t fear you, can the Fox Clan really fear the Wolf Clan?” another elder from the Fox Clan said fiercely.

In an instant, Bai Yi and Qingxue, trapped in the center, no longer seemed the focus; instead, the two elders from each of the Fox and Wolf Clans began to vie against each other, escalating towards a confrontation. Their contention had only one purpose: the Cultivation Treasure!

In the beginning, the two elders of the Fox Clan were eager to tear Bai Yi to pieces and kill him on the spot. However, the two elders of the Wolf Clan were thinking of something deeper. Everyone saw it; that ragged piece of parchment had already been destroyed by Bai Yi. Regardless of whether it truly held the cultivation treasure or was just a form of the supreme Martial Arts Divine Skill of the Demon Clan, it was of great importance to them. Now that the ragged parchment was destroyed by Bai Yi, and the only person who saw its contents and lived was Bai Yi, even if it was destroyed, Bai Yi had surely memorized it. As long as they captured Bai Yi and found a way to make him speak, it was no different from obtaining that ragged piece of parchment, right?

However, the two elders of the Fox Clan were no pushovers. When the two old wolves were angrily and righteously proclaiming they wanted to avenge their dead, to take Bai Yi back to the Wolf Clan, the Fox elders immediately sensed something was off. It was clear that the two old wolves’ desire to take Bai Yi back was not just to vent their anger; in reality, they intended to use every possible method, even torture, to make Bai Yi speak of the parchment’s contents. How could the Fox Clan let the Wolf Clan succeed? Naturally, they wouldn’t back down; they were bound to fight for it, even if it meant a major conflict between the Fox and Wolf Clans, they would not concede an inch!

The two elders of the Wolf Clan exchanged glances; indeed, they had such intentions but did not expect the two old foxes to see through them so easily. In terms of true strength, the capabilities among the four of them were quite similar. In a real fight, no one would win easily. Moreover, the Fox Clan’s strength was not inferior to the Wolf Clan’s, so in a head-to-head confrontation, no advantage was to be gained!

”Hahahaha, have you started turning on each other already? Well, let’s be honest here; I am the only one who knows about the contents of that ragged parchment in this world. If any of you want to know, just kill the other three!” Bai Yi laughed loudly.

”You little brat, this ruthless? I don’t believe there’s no way to make you talk!”

”You’re just a prisoner; it’s not your place to speak and set conditions!”

”At worst, our Fox Clan and Wolf Clan will interrogate you together; dare not speak, and you’ll be yearning for life but unable to die!”

”When the time comes, I’m sure you’ll talk!”

”Don’t delude yourselves. Of the entire White Rabbit clan, only I am left. The person I love most is about to die; do you think I have anything left to live for in this world? You may be strong, and I can’t run or escape, but I can end my own life—there’s no way you can stop me from doing that, right?” Bai Yi said with a contemptuous smile.

Hearing Bai Yi’s words, the four elders of the Fox Clan and Wolf Clan frowned. Bai Yi was right; no matter how powerful they were, in front of the four of them, Bai Yi had nowhere to escape and couldn’t possibly overcome them. But with Bai Yi’s current power, he could indeed decide his own life and death. Moreover, with one of the ancient ten Divine Swords, the Cheng Ying Sword, in hand, these four old fellows couldn’t completely disregard him.

Wow!

Suddenly, one of the old wolves seized Qingxue. At this moment, Qingxue was already on the verge of death, and any mishap could annihilate her completely. Bai Yi immediately drew the Cheng Ying Sword and charged forward!

Buzz!

Buzz!

Two powerful runes blocked Bai Yi, temporarily keeping him from advancing. The two old wolves acted together, pre-emptively seizing one of Bai Yi’s weaknesses!

”Release her, or I’ll wipe out your entire Wolf Clan!” Bai Yi roared in rage, and the Cheng Ying Sword emitted a different glow.

Buzz!

Buzz!

Two more runes encompassed Bai Yi. This time, it was the two old foxes who acted; they couldn’t stand by idly. They were both shocked and regretful, thinking why they hadn’t acted first to seize Qingxue. Given the relationship between Bai Yi and Qingxue, this was a huge bargaining chip!

Although the two old foxes were not as quick as the two old wolves, they would by no means watch the two old wolves take Bai Yi away. If he were taken away, the contents on that ragged parchment would surely belong to the Wolf Clan. For them, the Fox Clan, having worked so hard and sacrificed so much, only for all to be fruitless would indeed be a tragedy!

Bai Yi was surrounded by four powerful runes. Even though he was at the Mid-stage Martial Saint level and had the Cheng Ying Sword in hand, the four elders surrounding him were among the strongest of the Fox and Wolf Clans. Overcoming the four rune nets in an instant was no easy task.

An old wolf seized Qingxue but didn’t kill her. Instead, he slowly injected a strand of Martial Arts True Qi into Qingxue to preserve her last breath, preventing instant death, then looked at Bai Yi and said, ”There’s no point in resisting. We won’t kill her. Just recite what’s recorded on the ragged parchment, and I’ll save her and let you both go. How about it?”

”Do you mean that?” Bai Yi stopped; he was not an unthoughtful brute.

”Bai Yi, don’t believe them. They won’t spare either of us; don’t fall for it!” Qingxue weakly struggled to say.

Buzz! The old wolf holding Qingxue squeezed slightly, and Qingxue fainted. Coldly, the old wolf looked at Bai Yi and said, ”So, how about it? This deal is nothing but a win for you!” (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for it, your support is my greatest motivation.
