Chapter 57 The Spirit Ape Subdues the Demon
Chapter 57 The Spirit Ape Subdues the Demon
"ah!!!"
The piercing screams shattered the swirling snow and sent chills down one's spine.
Su Can clutched the wound on his severed arm, curled up in the snow, his scalding blood instantly staining the snow beneath him. That initial surge of passion was shattered by the icy, excruciating pain, leaving only endless fear and regret.
"My son! My son!" Chen Shi, with a strength she didn't know she had, dragged her crippled body and crawled frantically across the snow to her son's side, trying to shield him with her own body.
"You beast... let go of my son!"
Su Dawen's eyes were filled with tears of blood. He grabbed the fish-killing knife with a blunt blade from the ground and slashed down the gang member who was blocking his way, but he was immediately stopped by others.
"Haha, die, all of you!" Cao Bin stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked his lips, his eyes filled with the pleasure of slaughter.
Su Can struggled in the pool of blood, and just as he was about to get up, he was stomped back into the snow and mud by a foot.
Cao Bin raised his long sword, the tip pointing at the back of his neck, and grinned maliciously:
"Sending you on your way."
"Whoosh!"
The moment the blade fell, a figure lunged forward.
It's the Chen family!
She shielded her son from the fatal blow with her own back. The long blade pierced through her chest and passed right through her body. Blood gushed from her mouth, scalding hot and pouring onto Su Can's terrified, stunned face beneath her.
"The whole family should die together, so they won't have any more foolish dreams of revenge!"
Cao Bin kicked Chen's body away with disgust and raised his long knife again.
Seeing the sticky bloodstains on the blade, he frowned slightly, took out another clean white silk handkerchief from his pocket, and slowly wiped the blade.
"Don't be impatient. Let me wipe you clean before I send you on your way."
He casually ordered, "Lift them all up and make them kneel in a row so I can easily behead them."
Several members of the Water Snake Gang skillfully stepped forward, dragged the Su family members to the center of the courtyard, and forced them to kneel in a row.
Cao Bin wiped his long sword clean, threw the blood-stained silk handkerchief on the snow with disdain, and walked over with his sword.
At this moment, the entire Su family fell silent.
Su Hong stopped struggling. He stared intently at Cao Bin, who was approaching step by step, his eyes wide with rage, tears of blood streaming down his face: "Cao Bin... the Su family, even as ghosts... will never let you go!"
"To become a ghost?"
Cao Bin's face contorted with rage, and he spat a mouthful of phlegm onto the ground: "You think being a ghost will make things easier?"
Cao Bin raised his long sword high once more, the blade gleaming with a chilling light in the wind and snow, about to sever Su Hong's head.
"boom!"
Just as Cao Bin's blade was about to fall, the heavy wooden door of the courtyard suddenly shattered!
Broken wood chips were swept in by the swirling snow.
Amidst the dust and smoke, a tall, slender figure strode through the snow, followed by Qin Yu, dressed in fiery red, and Xu Feng, whose expression was solemn.
"Who goes there?!"
Several gang members were terrified and drew their swords, shouting angrily.
Cao Bin paused, squinting at the person approaching through the smoke and dust, a sense of unease rising in his heart.
Su Yu did not speak.
His gaze swept over the severed limbs on the ground, and over Su Hong and the others kneeling in pools of blood.
Finally, the attack landed on Cao Bin, who was wielding a large, ghost-headed scalpel.
"Are you Cao Bin?"
"That is indeed me. May I ask who you are?"
"Clang!"
Su Yu drew the thick, heavy nine-ringed broadsword from behind his back with a backhand motion!
The cold wind howled, and the nine iron rings on the back of the knife trembled in the wind, making a tinkling sound, like the sound of a death knell.
Qin Yu was about to intervene when Xu Feng stopped her, saying, "Junior Sister, have those gang members handle things. Let Junior Brother Su deal with Cao Bin himself!"
"Second...Second Brother?" Su Hong recognized the person and roared desperately, "Second Brother, don't come again! Go!"
Su Can was now completely despondent, his eyes lifeless, like a walking corpse.
Su Manjiang looked at Su Yu with his weathered and cloudy eyes, a long-lost sense of guilt rising in his heart. He had never thought highly of this grandson, yet in the end, he had to send him to his death.
孽 孽!
Seeing that Su Yu's intentions were hostile, Cao Bin snorted coldly, grabbed his broadsword, and charged forward.
"Boy, you must be Su Yu, the last remaining member of the Su family? Don't you know I'm a martial artist? You still dare to come here to die?"
Although Cao Bin spoke with disdain, his intuition, honed from years of living on the edge, told him that something was off about this young man.
He either has something to rely on, or he's a hothead blinded by anger.
But were his two companions just going to watch?
Before Cao Bin could continue thinking, the snow beneath Su Yu's feet suddenly exploded!
Its movements are as swift as thunder, as powerful as a ghost!
Su Yu suddenly lowered his body, like a white ape moving swiftly close to the ground, and instantly passed through the swirling snow.
"die!"
The blade flashed like snow, so fast that its trajectory was impossible to see, and it slashed fiercely at Cao Bin, giving him no time to react.
"So fast!"
Cao Bin's pupils suddenly contracted.
This speed, this swordsmanship, is something no ordinary person could achieve!
Cao Bin roared angrily, his blood and qi erupted, and the ghost-head saber in his hand stirred up a gust of evil wind.
"A vicious tiger blocks the road!"
He exerted force from his waist and hips, sweeping his longsword horizontally, creating a dazzling circle of blade light that blocked all the trajectories of Su Yu's nine-ringed broadsword as it slashed down!
He practiced the Black Tiger Severing Blade, a mid-level martial art. Although his talent wasn't enough, he had already grasped the basics. Now, with his blood and qi flowing freely, a full-force strike would be enough to instantly kill any enemy below the Martial Artist realm!
"clang!"
The two large swords clashed, producing a loud clang.
Cao Bin felt a powerful force coming from his hand, and with a loud shout, he forcefully blocked the nine-ringed broadsword.
"Warrior!"
Although Cao Bin had repelled the enemy, he was now certain that this kid was definitely a martial artist!
"Well done, lad! So the Su family had a martial arts expert hidden away!"
"Black Tiger Breaks the Gate!"
Cao Bin roared and launched a full-scale attack. Today, they had become mortal enemies, and he was determined to kill him!
"Entangling Vines Lock the Demon!"
"Clang clang clang clang!"
The two blades clashed repeatedly, the immense force causing the falling snowflakes to dance in the air!
Su Yu's nine-ringed saber slid and twisted along Cao Bin's saber handle like a living vine!
A strange spiraling force erupted, and Cao Bin felt as if his weapon was being coiled by a giant python. An irresistible rotating force came over him, causing him excruciating pain in his tiger's mouth. His ghost-head saber almost flew out of his hand!
Cao Bin was shocked. This kid's swordsmanship was terrifying. He instinctively tried to draw his sword and retreat.
"Too late!"
Su Yu pressed his advantage, seizing the opportunity to pounce and instantly close in.
He held the sword in one hand, his long arm extended lightly, and the heavy nine-ringed broadsword drew a perfect crescent arc in the air, enveloping Cao Bin's upper body.
"To reach for the stars with the reach of an ape!"
This strike had an extremely wide range of attack. Wherever the blade passed, the falling snowflakes were neatly sliced apart, as if they had frozen in time!
"Pfft!"
The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh was exceptionally clear in the wind and snow.
Although Cao Bin desperately leaned back to dodge, a deep, bone-revealing wound was still slashed across his chest, extending from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.
Blood gushed out, staining half of the snow-covered ground red.
"ah!!!"
Cao Bin screamed and staggered backward, clutching his chest, his eyes finally filled with terror.
This swordsmanship… how can someone wielding such a heavy sword move with such incredible speed? This is a god of death! The chilling light of the blade made his very soul tremble!
"Su Yu! Stop! You can take these good-for-nothings from the Su family with you! It's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester... My Water Snake Gang will forgive and forget everything!"
Cao Bin was utterly terrified. He retreated while shouting, his voice trembling with fear.
Su Yu remained calm and did not respond. His broadsword trembled slightly, and drops of blood from the blade fell, blooming like red plum blossoms on the snow.
Not far away, Su Hong, lying in a pool of blood, stared in disbelief at the figure that had wounded Cao Bin.
This...this...this is my second brother?
Is this really not a dream?
He has not only become a martial artist, but his skill in swordsmanship has even reached this level.
An overwhelming sense of unreality washed over me, which then turned into tears of ecstatic joy, mingling with the blood on my face as they streamed down.
Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!
"Second brother, kill him!!!" Su Hong roared with all his might.
