Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 119 See the Blood

At the edge of the battlefield filled with the smell of blood and wailing, Yifeng looked at Xiaocao who was protecting him and asked, "Where are Xiaoli and Xiaomeng?"

Xiaocao and Xiaoli have been responsible for holding the line since the battle started, so they have not taken any action.

As for Xiaoli, after eliminating the bandit sentries, he hid himself and did not take any more action.

"They are going to capture prisoners." Xiaocao pointed to the dark mountains ahead where shouting came from and one after another.

"They are a bit of a waste of talent. Never mind them. Let's go help An Ling and kill the fifth-rank bandit leader." Yi Feng said as he walked towards the battlefield, towards the only two remaining battle circles.

In one battle circle, the old patriarch and Zi Ling surrounded and killed the second-in-command of the bandits.

In one battle circle, Zi Ling fought alone against the third leader of the bandits, and the two sides were in a stalemate.

The two battle circles were surrounded by the two purple and dark guards, and the bandit leader had no way to escape.

"Great Elder, I will use my roots to launch a sneak attack and tie up the bandit leader's feet. You shoot him with the golden arrow and chop him with the dark spirit to end the battle quickly." Xiaocao stated his tactics.

"Let's do it." Yifeng nodded and mobilized his spiritual power to condense a golden arrow.

He had not taken action since the battle started, because the two guards Zi and An were too fierce. They killed the bandits as easily as cutting melons and vegetables. If they did not want to capture prisoners, the bandits would have suffered heavy casualties and fled in all directions just from their charging.

On the wall of the Forgotten Village, the four people who stayed behind, Zhongxiao and Liangquan, all looked at Taoist Master Xuanzhen who was drinking wine, with a curious look in their eyes.

Taoist Xuanzhen saw this and said helplessly: "Your worries are unnecessary. Liangshan has already killed the enemy and the bandits have been repelled. The battle is coming to an end and no one has been injured or killed."

"Huh" The four people, Zhongxiao and Liangquan, heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this, and relaxed smiles appeared on their faces. As long as no one died, it was good.

"Whoosh" the wind sounded, and it turned into a phantom thundercloud with a ghost face. It opened its mouth wide and sucked the dying Black Eagle, the snake shadow, and the black shadow into its mouth to suppress them. The battle stopped there.

"Heizi, come and find the space ring. I told you not to use the tornado blade, but you didn't listen. Look, it's easier to find it this time." Shang Liangshan said to Heizi unhappily.

"Ga ga" Heizi shrank his body and explained that he had forgotten it just now.

"Moo" the thunder dragon let out a cow roar and turned into a purple shadow chain, returning to Shang Liangshan's neck and acting as a dog leash, a very thick dark purple dog leash.

"Whoosh" the phantom dark thundercloud shrank, turned into a dark light, and flew into the center of Shang Liangshan's eyebrows.

"Om" the clone of the Mountain and River Seal made a humming sound, emitting a dazzling golden light, illuminating an area as a light source, helping the man and the eagle find the space ring.

Looking for the ring...

"No!" The third in command let out an unwilling cry and was beheaded by the dark spirit.

As soon as he stepped on the ground, his legs were bound by green roots that sprang up from the ground. Then he was pierced through the body by three golden arrows, seriously injured. Then, with a whistling sound of a knife, he was beheaded.

Facing two sixth-in-commands of the same level and a ruthless general who was suppressing him in a fight, it would be hard for the third-in-command to survive.

When the second in command heard the third in command's unwilling voice, his expression tensed up, his heart started to panic, and pessimism surged into his heart.

His emotions made him a beat slow in blocking, and the old patriarch took the opportunity to chop his hand with a knife. Blood splattered and he couldn't help but howl in pain.

The ending is obvious: he died by the sword.

At this point, all the bandit leaders above the fourth rank who launched the counterattack were killed by the sword, and it is estimated that there are not many small leaders of the third rank left.

Just as the soldiers and civilians of Forgotten Township were capturing prisoners all over the mountains, Heizi grabbed a space ring, flew to Shang Liangshan's shoulder, and handed it to his master.

Shang Liangshan took the space ring, put it away without even looking at it, and waved his hand to let the Mountain and River Seal dissipate.

With a whoosh of wind, Heizi flew to the open space and transformed into a huge owl. It carried its master who flew up and rushed to the main battlefield.

At this time, the main battlefield began to be cleaned up, and teams of soldiers and civilians were escorting prisoners back.

Just when everyone thought that the battle tonight would come to an end.

Suddenly, bursts of wolf howls and human screams were heard in the mountains and forests, which made the soldiers and civilians, who had just relaxed, suddenly tense up their hearts.

"Light the fire, the odd numbers will be on guard, and the even numbers will speed up and clean up the battlefield." The old patriarch gave the order in a deep voice.

The old man didn't think that the wolves were coming for them, but rather that they were robbing them from the outside. However, they still had to be on guard.

"Yes!" The military and civilians responded and took quick action.

The bonfire was quickly lit, illuminating the flowing blood, making it look particularly bright.

The corpses were piled up like a mountain as they were being carried away. It was a very jarring scene, so I won’t go into details.

"Chief, how should we deal with the injured bandits?" Yishe walked up to the old chief and asked.

"Let's release those whose injuries are too severe," the old patriarch said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the remaining snake nodded and left expressionlessly.

Silent cruelty, appearing on the battlefield, is undoubtedly terrifying because it represents killing.

The wolves that were picking up the loose ends slowly retreated after being frightened by Xiaoli and Xiaomeng, dragging away the bloody corpses one after another.

The military and civilians were able to devote all their efforts to cleaning up the battlefield, and without any accidents, they made a lot of war profits.

Nearly 2,800 bandits were captured and nearly 2,000 enemies were killed.

"Five thousand people ran away?" Yihuo was a little dissatisfied when he heard the statistics.

"When the clever bandits saw that the situation was not going well, they fled in the darkness, leaving only the fierce bandits to fight back," Xiaoli explained.

With nearly ten thousand bandits, it is impossible for all of them to be fierce bandits, and it is normal for bandits to be everywhere in the mountains.

It is normal for a clever bandit leader to sneak away with his men when he sees that the situation is not right.

"It's not good to have too many prisoners. Two thousand eight is enough." Shang Liangshan said this, looking at Xiaocao and Xiaomeng in the dark, "You two go and interrogate the bandits. Take out and kill those who have done too much evil, so that we don't have to deal with them when we go back and pollute the village environment."

"Yes, meow." Xiaocao and Xiaomeng took the order and left.

"Little Leopard, Big Bull, Big Dog, take the temple guards and the reserve troops to carry out the execution. Let them see blood."

"Yes." Leopard, Big Bull and Big Dog took the order and left, calling their teammates to see blood.

The old patriarch looked at the three people who left after receiving the order, and turned to Shang Liangshan and said, "Liangshan, you can let this old man give this order. You are a holy temple spirit, and you should not be stained with blood."

Shang Liangshan smiled when he heard this and said, “Old Patriarch, if you change your way of thinking, it will be different.”

"What idea?" the old patriarch asked curiously.

"Bandits have committed many evil deeds. I am accumulating merit by issuing orders to eliminate them."

“…” When everyone heard this, they all looked at Shang Liangshan in a daze. What he said made a lot of sense.

"Then I will go to supervise, accumulate merits, and break through to the fifth level as soon as possible." Yihuo walked towards the prisoner viciously.

"Wait for me." The leftover water and the leftover earth followed closely behind the leftover fire.

"Is there really no impact?" The old patriarch looked at Shang Liangshan and asked in a low voice.

He was afraid that Shang Liangshan would be stained with blood, which would affect his practice.
