The broadsword slashed from behind, sharp and fierce, cutting diagonally along the neck of the Shatu warrior in front. With a "puff", the blood gushing out of the Shatu warrior's body splashed on a patch of azaleas beside the mountain path, dyeing the leaves of the azaleas as bright red as flowers. After the head fell to the ground, the body of the Shatu warrior still relied on inertia to run forward a few steps before suddenly falling on the narrow mountain road...
Yan Liqiang put away the knife, took one last look at the corpse, and let out a long breath.
With the fall of this last Shatu warrior, no one of the Shatu people who invaded the Dayue tribe escaped. From Mobiedu to the lowest soldier, all were wiped out.
This place is more than thirty miles away from the entrance of the Dayue tribe's mountain village. Yan Liqiang went out from the inner gate and followed the rugged mountain road all the way to here. Finally, he killed the last Shatu man with his sword. Yan Liqiang couldn't even remember how many people he killed along the way.
Looking at the two swords in his hands that were full of gaps and were almost scrapped, Yan Liqiang threw the swords on the ground, then turned around and walked towards the village of the Dayue tribe.
The bodies of the killed Shatu people could be seen along the way. The warriors of the Dayue tribe who had followed Yan Liqiang all the way, when they saw Yan Liqiang coming, stood solemnly by the roadside, made way for him, and saluted him with awe-inspiring eyes, watching him walk away.
At this moment, Yan Liqiang's clothes were so colorful that it was almost unrecognizable. They were all covered in blood. Of course, not a single drop of that blood was his. But in the eyes of the warriors of the Dayue tribe, seeing this set of clothes was like seeing the armor of a god of war, radiant and awe-inspiring.
The warriors of the Dayue tribe may not know what happened in the Qiyue Hall at the moment, but everyone has seen everything that happened on the battlefield. It can be said that if Yan Liqiang had not been there, even if Salina's mother Sharanqi arrived with a team of reinforcements, it would be difficult to predict how the battle with the Shatu people would end. I am afraid that being able to repel the Shatu people would be the best result. As for annihilating them completely, that is simply impossible.
"Mr. Long... Mr. Long..." The elder from Minister Dayue who had followed Yan Liqiang - sorry, Yan Liqiang didn't know his name yet - stuttered a little when he saw Yan Liqiang, and his awe for Yan Liqiang was written all over his face.
"Don't forget to give a finishing blow to all the Shatu people who have fallen to the ground. Develop good habits..." Yan Liqiang reminded the elder, and then walked back the way he came.
When Yan Liqiang returned to the entrance of the Dayue tribe's mountain stronghold, the sun was already high above his head. The fire at the outer gate had been put out, leaving only the remaining smoke. Although the valley was in a mess, warriors from the Dayue tribe had already begun to clean up the battlefield and separate the weapons and corpses. The atmosphere in the Dayue tribe was a little sad and depressing, but no matter what, the Dayue tribe won this battle...
Seeing Yan Liqiang's figure appear, Salina ran over quickly and hugged Yan Liqiang without hesitation. She raised her face with worry in her eyes, "Brother Long, where are you injured? Let me see, I have medicine here..."
"I'm fine. The blood on my clothes is from the Shatu people..." Yan Liqiang smiled.
"That's good, that's good. This time, thanks to Brother Long..." Salina looked at Yan Liqiang with gratitude, "If it weren't for you, Brother Long, I'm afraid..."
"Hahaha, there's no need to talk about these. By the way, is there a place to take a bath in your village? I want to take a bath and change my clothes. The clothes I'm wearing now are sticky and smell too fishy. They're too uncomfortable to wear..."
"Salina..."Salina's mother, Sharanqi, came over, took a look at Yan Liqiang, and took a deep breath, "Take Mr. Long to the VIP room to have a good rest..."
"Yes, mother!"
Yan Liqiang glanced at Sharanqi and didn't say much. He just nodded, and under the escort of several Dayue tribe warriors, he followed Sharina into the mountain village.
At this time, the fires in several places in the village that had caught fire before were also put out. The losses of the entire Dayue tribe village were not great. Along the way, we could occasionally see Dayue warriors escorting several Dayue people who were tied up and had scars on their faces to the prison. Yan Liqiang asked Salina and found out that those people were the remnants of Elder Gezong. What fate awaited them was naturally not something Yan Liqiang had to worry about...
The VIP courtyard of the Dayue tribe is a stone courtyard not far from the Qiyue Hall. It is surrounded by green trees and is very quiet. The nearest residence of ordinary members of the Dayue tribe is two hundred meters away. Only the residence of the tribe leader is very close to the VIP courtyard, almost right next to it.
Compared to the low wooden houses and tents where ordinary people of the Dayue tribe live, this VIP residence here can be considered luxurious.
Salina asked several warriors from the Dayue tribe to guard outside the VIP courtyard, and she personally took Yan Liqiang to the backyard of the VIP courtyard.
The backyard of the VIP Inn was filled with mist and was dim. Looking at the steaming pool surrounded by several firs and rockery in the backyard and the gurgling stream beside the pool, Yan Liqiang was surprised. He did not expect that he could enjoy the mountain hot springs here. If such hot spring facilities were in his previous life, they would definitely be of five-star standard.
“Hahaha, not bad, not bad…” Looking at the clear water in the pool with hot steam rising from it, Yan Liqiang laughed loudly. Without caring whether Salina was around or not, he took off all his clothes and jumped into the warm pool. He dived to the bottom of the water in an instant, then popped his head out from the bottom of the water and lay comfortably on a smooth boulder in the water.
Since coming to Yulong Mountain for meditation, Yan Liqiang has never enjoyed such a comfortable hot spring.
Salina stood by the pool, like a beautiful fairy in the swirling mist.
"Salina, come down and take a shower too..." Yan Liqiang waved at Salina.
Sweeping a glance at Yan Liqiang's exposed strong body, Salina's face flushed slightly, "No one else will disturb us here, Brother Long, you go wash up first and have a good rest. I'll ask someone to prepare some food for you..."
"I saw too much blood today and I don't have an appetite for meat, so I'll just have some fruit or dried fruit to fill my stomach..."
"Okay, Brother Long..."
After saying that, Salina picked up the pile of clothes that Yan Liqiang had thrown by the pool and left.
Yan Liqiang relaxed his body while soaking in the hot spring, and then he almost hummed with comfort. After a big battle, soaking in such a hot spring was definitely the ultimate enjoyment.
Yan Liqiang slowly closed his eyes while soaking in the water. As his body relaxed, his mind started to work rapidly.
I don’t know what would have happened to the Dayue tribe if I hadn’t appeared in the Heavenly Dao Divine Realm. I guess the result would not be optimistic, but the fact that I was able to come to Yulong Mountain this time and save the Dayue tribe by chance seems more like an arrangement in the dark, because the Dayue tribe is one of the races living in the Gulang grassland that was once under the jurisdiction of the Qiyun Guardian Office. It is under my jurisdiction. To some extent, I, the nominal Guardian Qiyun, am now the real ruler and protector of the Dayue tribe...
Now that the Dayue tribe has just experienced a great chaos and is facing the threat of the Shatu people, it is now isolated and helpless. It is also a good opportunity for me to conquer them. If I have such a force that surrenders to me in Yulong Mountain, it will be a surprise force that can be used to advance or retreat in the future and will be of great use!
Unconsciously, Yan Liqiang's thoughts became more profound...
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of light footsteps sounded again in the misty courtyard. Yan Liqiang opened his eyes and saw Salina, dressed in a thin gauze, walking towards him with a fruit plate. Salina's hot figure was looming in the mist and gauze, giving her a unique beauty.
Yan Liqiang's eyes suddenly lit up...
Watching Salina put the fruit plate on the ground beside the pool and looking at Yan Liqiang's shining eyes, Salina smiled charmingly. Without even Yan Liqiang's instructions, she took off her veil and gently slid into the water. She came to Yan Liqiang's side, hugged Yan Liqiang, pressed her face tightly against Yan Liqiang's chest, and murmured, "Brother Long, if it weren't for you today, I really can't imagine what our Dayue tribe would have encountered today. I don't know if my mother and I will have the chance to meet again. Thank you!"
"Perhaps this is the legendary fate!" Yan Liqiang gently lifted up Salina's face with a strange smile on his face...
