Chapter 164 This world shouldn’t be like this

After leaving the mountains, several people first went to the nearest city to buy transportation tools.

He didn't buy a carriage for comfort, he just bought four horses.

With a burst of lightning, it quickly approached the Tiandou Empire.

While resting along the way, Dugu Yan suddenly remembered something and said loudly, "Xiaochuan, do you still remember the town we passed through when we came here?"

As soon as he said this, the previous memories came to mind.

Lin Chuan nodded lightly, "Of course I remember, the wine in that wine shop tastes pretty good."

"We are about to return to the Tiandou Empire, so why not drop by and have a look? I don't know how the girl in the wine shop is doing now."

"Okay, let's go there and rest!"

Lin Chuan naturally had no objection to this.

The destination was clear, and everyone was about to arrive at the town within a few days.

Fortunately, soul masters have good memories. Even though so long has passed, they still remember the path they took when they came.

However, as it got closer and closer, something became more and more wrong.

Wherever they passed, there were obvious traces of some kind of creature passing by on the ground, and judging from the appearance, there were obviously a lot of them, spreading towards the direction they were heading.

"Uu——"

Lin Chuan grabbed the reins and stopped suddenly.

Seeing this, the other three girls also stopped quickly.

"Xiaochuan, what's wrong?" Dugu Yan asked in confusion.

"The situation is not right," Lin Chuan simply left a sentence, took a deep breath and closed his eyes. A wave of mental power spread out, and everything around him could not escape his eyes.

And closer to the town, endless emotional feedback came back.

Fear, despair, pain, greed, madness...

Lin Chuan suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of anger flashing in his eyes.

"Brother Chuan," Ye Lingling keenly caught this and called softly.

"The town ahead is being attacked. The situation is very critical. I'll take the first step, and Yanzi and Lingling can come up behind you. But be sure to pay attention to safety."

After saying this, without waiting for the three women to respond, Lin Chuan jumped up from the horse and flew forward like a gust of wind.

"Let's follow quickly!"

The three women also realized the seriousness of the matter and quickly waved their riding whips.

In a few breaths, Lin Chuan had arrived directly above the town. Looking down from a high position, he saw that the town, which was not too big, had turned into a purgatory on earth.

There were dead people everywhere, the ground was dyed red, the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and corpses could even be seen on the road. They were all disemboweled, with their internal organs flowing all over the ground. The state of death was so miserable.

Even small children were not spared, impaled with spears and hung high.

Witnessing this scene with his own eyes, Lin Chuan's face turned pale.

The killing below continued, and without any time to think, Lin Chuan suddenly fell from the sky.

"boom--"

He instantly smashed a big hole into the ground, and the murderers who were massacring the surviving humans nearby were instantly blown away and smashed against the wall.

Lin Chuan slowly stood up and looked around with cold eyes.

The appearance of the killer also came into view.

These are a group of majestic guys, six feet tall, all with gray hair. The exposed parts are covered with vigorous hair. Their lips protrude outward, revealing two canine teeth that are several times larger than ordinary people. They are also painted on their faces. Wearing dazzling oil paint, his image is no different from that of a savage.

However, the identities of these savages emerged in Lin Chuan's mind.

Wolf thief!

A product of the fusion of the human spirit beast Wind Demon Wolf, half human and half wolf, born with the body, speed and some talents of the Wind Demon Wolf, as well as a certain amount of wisdom.

The Wind Demon Wolf is naturally bloodthirsty and greedy. It can mate with almost any creature of similar size to itself, and it likes to rape human women the most.

After combining with a female, a special species of wolf thieves will be born.

I just didn't expect to meet these beasts here.

"Ouch——"

The moment Lin Chuan appeared, all the wolf thieves turned around at the same time, roaring continuously, their eyes were blood red, and their whole bodies were filled with murderous intent.

"Kneel down!"

Lin Chuan roared, and a stream of red light swept across all directions.

The mysterious fire of all things forms a field, covering the entire town, and under the lock of spiritual power, it acts on all the wolf thieves very accurately.

"Bang——"

Huge pressure hit, and the wolf thieves all knelt on the ground, their upper bodies pressed close to the ground. They were no longer as ferocious as before, and their eyes were filled with fear.

However, they couldn't even cry out, let alone struggle.

"Die!"

Lin Chuan lightly stomped his feet, and a sea of ​​fire fell from the sky. All the wolves and thieves were swallowed up by the flames, and they were burned to ashes before they even had time to scream.

To be honest, the strength of these wolf thieves is not weak. Any one of them is no less than a hundred-year-old soul beast. Among them, there is a mutated leader whose strength is equivalent to a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.

It didn't pose a threat to Lin Chuan, but it was a disaster for ordinary people.

"Brother Chuan!"

Shouting sounded from behind, and Dugu Yan and the other two arrived belatedly.

Along the way, they also witnessed the tragic scenes in the small town. Such bloody scenes made the three women feel a little uncomfortable, but they still persevered.

Lin Chuan looked unhappy and shook his head slightly, "I have killed all the wolf thieves. There are still many people alive. Let's look for them. Lingling and I will go rescue them."

The situation was so critical, and the three women were unambiguous. After nodding in agreement, they immediately dispersed.

Lin Chuan and the others arrived late, but they did not miss it completely. They happened to encounter wolf thieves attacking the town, and they were able to resolve the disaster in time.

However, the pain left by the wolf thief is irreparable.

After a lot of work, the survivors from the entire town were gathered together.

The vast majority were women and children, and only a small number of adult men survived, but their condition at this time was not good, and a large part of them were disabled.

The wolf thieves not only plundered, but also killed the men to use as their food, while the women were left as maternity wards, and only those who were not pregnant were turned into food.

Originally there were thousands of people in the town, but now there are only a few hundred people left.

"Xiao Ling!"

In the crowd, Dugu Yan suddenly shouted.

A young girl who was lying on the corpse and crying loudly heard the sound and slowly raised her head. After recognizing a few people, her eyes suddenly filled with crystal tears.

"Sister Dugu, is that you?"

Looking at the haggard girl, Dugu Yan nodded sympathetically, "It's me."

After receiving a positive answer, Xiaoling could no longer bear the grievance in her heart and cried out again, "Sister Dugu, my grandfather and father are both dead. I have no family anymore..."

The miserable cry seemed to be a signal, and all the survivors began to cry loudly.

For them, survival does not seem to be a joy, but a kind of pain.

Dugu Yan stepped forward and held the girl Xiaoling in his arms, patting the girl's back gently and comforting her silently.

Lin Chuan stood aside, watching the scene in front of him silently, not knowing what to say. Any words at this time seemed feeble, and they could only let them vent their emotions.

Ye Lingling was also depressed, but still held the Life Lingtang in his hand and treated the injured.

Cries echoed over the town.

I don't know how long it took, but a breath was approaching quickly.

Lin Chuan suddenly raised his head and happened to see an agility attack spirit master hovering in the sky. He seemed to have landed quickly after discovering that there were survivors below.

"You are actually still alive?"

The first sentence makes people feel angry.

"What do you mean by this?" Lin Chuan's eyes turned evil and he asked in a deep voice.

"It's nothing," the person seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, his eyes were a little wandering, and he quickly changed the subject, "Have the wolf bandits been here already? And who are you?"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what the other person is deliberately hiding.

In front of Lin Chuan, the soul master's obvious emotional changes naturally could not escape his induction.

Without any nonsense, he ducked in front of the agility-type soul master, reached out and grabbed his neck, and lifted him off the ground with all his strength.

A feeling of suffocation came over him, and the other party's face suddenly turned red.

His hands struggled desperately, but Lin Chuan's hands were like iron pliers, holding his throat tightly, and he could twist it off with just a little more force.

"Now let me ask you an answer. If you dare to deceive me, I will let you experience what life is worse than death!"

Lin Chuan looked coldly at the agility-attack soul master in front of him, his eyes seeming to penetrate his soul.

Finally, when the other party was about to suffocate, Lin Chuan suddenly let go of his hand.

"Bang!"

The agility attack type soul master fell directly to the ground, covering his throat and coughing continuously, with a flash of fear in his eyes.

"Tell me where you came from."

"I..." The agility-attack soul master subconsciously wanted to lie, but under Lin Chuan's gaze, he couldn't lie, as if something terrible was waiting for him.

"Senior, I am a subordinate of Count Oran of the Star Luo Empire."

Not sensing the emotion of lying, Lin Chuan continued to ask, "What are you doing here?"

"Tune...to investigate the wolf bandits."

"So you have known about the wolf bandit attack for a long time?" Lin Chuan's expression suddenly turned unkind.

The other party swallowed his saliva and wanted to deny it, but he didn't dare to lie. He could only grit his teeth and smash the jar directly.

"Yes, this group of wolf thieves has attacked more than one place. This time I was ordered by the earl to investigate the whereabouts of the wolf thieves and send the news back so that I can respond in advance."

"Since you know about the wolf bandit, why don't you send someone to solve it?" Lin Chuan asked again.

"this……"

Seeing the other person's eyes dodge, Lin Chuan suddenly felt tremendous pressure.

"I said," with the knife almost on his neck, the agility-attack spirit master in front of him dared to hide, "The wolf thieves are extremely powerful, and they can also control the power of wind to a certain extent. Five hundred wolf thieves can defeat it." A regular army of ten thousand people, and they will fight to the death once attacked. "

"There are more than a thousand wolf thieves in front of us. The earl is worried that if he sends an army to encircle and suppress them, they will be taken advantage of, and he is also afraid that if he takes the initiative to provoke them, he will be retaliated against. So he sent me out to see if there is any threat to where he is."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

"Are you kidding me?" Zhu Zhuqing suddenly stepped forward with a cold look on his face, "These are the subjects of the empire, and they pay taxes to the empire every year. That damn Earl actually killed the people in his territory because he was worried about his own safety, knowing that there were wolf bandits raging. The people gave up, what a bastard!”

"Why didn't you ask for help?" Lin Chuan suppressed his anger and asked again.

"Count Oran said that he didn't want other nobles to know that he was messed up by a group of wolf thieves. That would make him a laughing stock among the nobles, so..."

Lin Chuan didn't want to hear any more, and he spit out flames from his mouth, burning the agility-attack spirit master in front of him to ashes.

Dugu Yan slowly stood up, his tone full of resentment, "A group of selfish nobles, greedy for life and afraid of death, it's ok, but for the ridiculous dignity of the nobles, they ignore ordinary people, this world shouldn't be like this!"

"Yes, this world shouldn't be like this..."

Lin Chuan agreed with an inexplicable look.
