23: Chapter 22 Slaughter of the Scorpion Race_1
23 -22 Slaughter of the Scorpion Race_1
“A man should be filled with hot blood, a fit of anger should be enough to kill, do not suppress hatred, repay grievances with blood.
To kill one person is a crime, but to slaughter ten thousand is a show of might.
And if you can slaughter millions, you’re the mightiest of the mighty!”
The death of the veteran soldiers within the tribe caused a surge of anger to spontaneously light up in Xiao Chen’s heart.
It was as if a spark had jumped into boiling oil, causing an explosion.
For such a tremendous vengeance to go unavenged was unthinkable.
Blood debts can only be repaid with blood.
The tribe people who had suffered hundreds of years of torment at the hands of the Scorpion Clan also needed these beasts to pay with their lives.
The time for revenge had come!
The Underground World had already descended into chaos.
Since the Scorpion Clan’s leader Xie Li had taken away over two thousand scorpion soldiers, the remaining Scorpion Clan in the Underground World had less than three thousand left.
This remaining three thousand included the elderly, sick and weak of the entire tribe.
Xie Li had mobilized all forces to attack the Gu Yuan Tribe, taking away all the elite warriors of the tribe, leaving the safety of The Underground Scorpion Clan at an all-time low.
Xiao Chen’s sudden attack took the elderly and young Scorpion people, who had been living in ease for hundreds of years, overwhelmingly by surprise.
Under Xie Li’s leadership, it was always the Scorpion Clan slaughtering others.
Never had they experienced a direct attack on their doorstep.
Even during the time when human tribes teamed up to besiege the Scorpion Clan, they simply hovered around the tribe entrance without gaining any ground, ultimately running away in defeat by the Scorpion Clan.
Xiao Chen was now the embodiment of a bloodthirsty demon at this moment, his eyes cold, and the aura of evil radiating from him was endless.
A strong scent of blood sprayed continuously from the hundreds of thousands of pores all over his body, making the Scorpion Clan retreat, as they involuntarily felt a sense of fear.
“Die!” Holding the Dark Blood Spear in his hand, a chilling look on his face, Xiao Chen roared, letting the wild combat Qi in his body flood into his arm.
The Dark Blood Spear became bright under the crazed combat Qi, radiating a sky-high killing intent.
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Unlimited killing intent!
Each thrust guaranteed a life.
One step, one murder, leaving no trace on his clothing.
The originally not so spacious tunnel was already densely covered with Scorpion bodies, regardless of age or gender.
In Xiao Chen’s eyes, there was no difference; they were nothing more than a pack of human-eating beasts.
One spear pierced straight through an obstructing Scorpion, the ferocious combat Qi instantaneously flowed into its body, sweeping brutally through its flesh, destroying on a large scale, killing its vitality.
In no time, no signs of life remained. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
With a sweep of his spear, Xiao Chen threw the impaled Scorpion body forward with all his might.
The oncoming Scorpion soldiers had no time to react before being sent flying, the sheer force left terrifying cracks on the ground and pieces of rock flew in all directions.
“He’s a devil, run!”
Seeing Xiao Chen’s ruthless attack, the blood had already dyed the Underground World a shade of red.
For the Scorpion people, the sight of Xiao Chen had become an insurmountable mountain; they finally broke and scattered, attempting to escape from this place of death.
But how could Xiao Chen let them succeed as he wished?
With a swipe of his spear, one man held the fort, preventing any getaway.
Following the tunnels of the underground, Xiao Chen advanced with an unparalleled force, leaving behind a trail of corpses, blood forming rivers.
Regardless of the horrific scenes around him, his state of mind remained tranquil, without stirring a single wave.
He searched each tunnel, each room, without letting a single one slip through the net.
“Where’s that crying coming from?” As he traversed a slim branch tunnel, snippets of sobbing travelled faintly towards him, the sounds intermittent, giving him an elusive sensation.
“Help….”
Following these sporadic pleas for help, Xiao Chen continued into the slim tunnel, turning at multiple bends.
Weapons and armour were scattered haphazardly on the ground, showing that his relentless killing had sent the Scorpion Clan into a panic, dropping their weapons without a care during their frantic escape.
“Damn it!” After another turn, Xiao Chen finally arrived at the source of the noise.
However, what he saw made his eyes near split apart, his fury spewing.
In this cave, a crowding mass of humans, including countless children were huddled together.
Above them, dozens of hooks hung from the ceiling, sharp barbs gleaming ominously.
Several figures were dangling from the hooks, devoid of any signs of life.
The chests of these victims had been brutally torn open by the vicious Scorpions, the struggle on their faces apparent, even in death.
“Big Brother, run quickly, these monsters will kill you.”
This was a fragile child’s voice, reaching Xiao Chen’s ears.
His eyes, initially filled with killing intent, cleared a little at the child’s plea.
Seeing Xiao Chen not moving, the little girl said anxiously, “Hurry, big brother, go while the monsters are away”.
At this innocent call, Xiao Chen finally reacted.
He loosened his grip on the long spear in his hand and struck the bronze lock on the prison door.
Bang!
The bronze lock that had been separating the two worlds shattered upon impact and fell.
The people inside the prison, who had long been numb, finally lifted their eyes to look at Xiao Chen.
However, none of them took any action.
A child was about to act, but a large hand from behind held him tightly.
In this underground world, those who were captured by the Scorpion Clan had suffered incessantly during these dark years.
Their hearts had become desperate.
Even the toughest men would eventually be broken down watching their own kind being killed by the Scorpion Clan every day.
“I am Xiao Chen, chieftain of the Gu Yuan Tribe.
I have slain the Scorpion Clan’s chieftain, Xie Li.
You can all go home now”.
Hearing that Xie Li was dead, these colorless eyes regained some life.
The silence in the stone cave was finally broken.
“What’s your name?” Ignoring the reactions of the crowd, Xiao Chen took a step forward and walked over to the little girl who had initially urged him to escape, and gently picked her up.
The little girl didn’t show any signs of fear towards the young man who picked her up.
She twisted her body to find a comfortable position and sweetly said, “I am Lü Er.
Big brother, are you here to save Lü Er?”
Gently stroking Lü Er’s grimy little face, he gave her a comforting smile, oblivious to the fact that his face was smeared with blood and distorted from strain.
Holding the little girl tightly in his arms, Xiao Chen swept his eyes over his fellow tribespeople who were imprisoned by the Scorpion Clan.
However, he didn’t show them any kindness.
He had no sympathy for these people who were so afraid of death.
Perhaps detecting the disdain in Xiao Chen’s eyes, an elder stepped forward from the crowd and said, “We also thought about fighting back, dying a glorious death rather than living aimlessly.”
The elder paused, pointed at the children in the crowd and continued, “But since these kids were brought here, the damned Scorpion Clan threatened us that if anyone dared to resist, they would kill ten children.
We wouldn’t mind, but these children…”
Choked with emotion, another person took over, “For the sake of the children, we compromised.
Every day, several of us would volunteer to step forward and be food for the Scorpion Clan.
The ones hanging on the hook are Wang Er and others who volunteered today.
They’re tough men who didn’t plead for mercy even when their hearts were being gouged out.”
“We knew this method was only quenching thirst with poison, but each day they lived brought hope for these children.”
Hearing the words of these brave men, Xiao Chen couldn’t think of any words to comfort them.
Finally, he said, “You brave ones, you are the true heroes.
Xie Li, the chief of the Scorpion Clan has been slain by me.
The elite warriors of the clan have been defeated by our Gu Yuan.
Now, only the old, weak, sick, and disabled are left in this lair.
Today, we will kill every last one of these beasts, avenging the countless lives lost to the Scorpion Clan over the centuries!”
“Slaughter them all!”
“Slaughter them all!”
Hearing Xiao Chen’s words, the people, regaining their will, roared in response, filled with rage.
They picked up the weapons on the ground and charged out of the cave, looking to take vengeance.
Only the blood of the Scorpion Clan could wash away the anger in their hearts.
Having arranged for some elderly members of their tribe to take care of the remaining children, Xiao Chen was about to put down Lü Er, whom he was holding, when the little girl clung to him tightly, “Big brother, don’t leave Lü Er.
Lü Er has no relatives left”.
Tearing off a clean piece of cloth, he blindfolded the little girl.
Carrying her in his left arm and holding the long spear in his right hand, Xiao Chen strode out.
