Chapter 196 The Story of the Reed Marsh(1/2)
"careful!"
"Get away! I'll stop this snake!"
"Boom boom boom..."
In the dense mountain forest, a big snake was frantically besieging more than a dozen spiritual masters.
The dozen or so spiritual masters were all seriously injured. Fortunately, Zhao Zhuang suddenly appeared and fought the big snake alone to save those people.
The big snake is extremely ferocious, and even Zhao Zhuang, who is in the middle stage of the Spiritual General Realm, is having a hard time resisting it at this moment.
The defense of the big snake's scales was so strong that even Zhao Zhuang's brute force could not break the big snake's scales.
When the two sides were locked in a stalemate, a swift sword light came through the air and split the big snake into two in the blink of an eye.
"boom!"
"ah!"
Zhao Zhuang, who was slightly dazed, was suddenly knocked out by the big snake's head.
He screamed and was caught by Zhou Fan who was flying by. Then he saw a snake head opening its mouth and biting towards them.
"Fuck!"
Zhao Zhuang, who was in mid-air, exclaimed in fright. Just as he was about to activate his defense, he saw that Zhou Fan had already slashed out a long and narrow sword energy.
The tyrannical sword energy split the snake's head into two in an instant, and when the snake's body, which was dead but not stiff, rushed towards Zhou Fan, he activated the green fire and burned it into a barbecue.
Everything happened so fast that no one in the venue could react.
"Elder! It's so good to see you!"
After being stunned, Zhao Zhuang was the first to react.
When he saw clearly that the person coming was Zhou Fan, he finally showed a look of relief.
Zhou Fan flew to the ground with Zhao Zhuang, and a man in black robes stood obediently behind him.
Zhao Zhuang originally thought that the enemy was about to attack, but when he saw that Zhou Fan turned a blind eye and the man in black looked respectful and did not seem to be an enemy, he stopped his attack.
"Captain Zhao! Who is he?"
At this time, a dozen spiritual masters not far away all ran over. They did not recognize Zhou Fan, so they quickly asked Zhao Zhuang who was standing aside.
"This is Zhou Fan, the captain of Jianggang City! He is also the thirty-sixth elder of the Spiritual Forbidden Master Alliance!"
Zhao Zhuang introduced everyone, and more than a dozen spiritual masters immediately stood in awe and saluted Zhou Fan to thank him.
"Let's go! Let's get out of here first!"
Zhou Fan put the roasted snake body into the skull seal space, greeted everyone and then headed away.
Everyone looked at each other and didn't say anything more, and followed him one after another.
When they came to a mountain stream to rest for a while, more than a dozen spiritual masters suddenly surrounded the man in black who had been following Zhou Fan silently.
"Elder! This person seems to be an enemy of Sakura Country!"
"Yes! I have seen him, he is a squad leader of the Wind Shadow Legion!"
More than a dozen spiritual masters had obviously discussed and confirmed it secretly, so they dared to directly attack the man in black.
They also wanted to see Zhou Fan's attitude to make sure which side he was on.
"Well! He is the captain of the Wind Shadow Legion!"
Facing the looks of more than a dozen people looking at him, Zhou Fan just nodded lightly and replied.
"Elder! You, since you know he is an enemy, why?"
Zhou Fan's answer made Zhao Zhuang wary.
If Zhou Fan betrayed the alliance, I'm afraid none of them would be able to leave alive today.
Just when Zhao Zhuang was feeling anxious and quickly thinking of various escape plans, Zhou Fan's voice sounded again.
"He said that my white sword is the military order of the Wind Shadow Army. As long as I have the white sword in my hand, I can summon the Wind Shadow Army. The white sword is also the identity symbol of the Wind Shadow, just like the emperor's jade seal."
Zhou Fan's calm reply made Zhao Zhuang and others stunned.
Everyone's eyes fell on the white long sword in Zhou Fan's hand. That seemingly ordinary white sword could actually command the Kazekage Army, one of the top five legions of the Sakura Kingdom.
This is like pie in the sky, and some people have a hint of greed in their eyes.
The man in black, who has already experienced Zhou Fan's strength, has secretly decided to be loyal to Zhou Fan. Perhaps this will be an opportunity for him to leap over the dragon's gate.
Therefore, when he felt that some of the eyes revealed greed and ill-intention, he immediately snorted coldly and showed off his early cultivation level of the Spiritual General Realm, looking at Zhao Zhuang and others with hostility on his face.
Zhao Zhuang was actually very attracted to the white sword in Zhou Fan's hand, but with his cultivation level, holding it in his hand was like holding a time bomb.
What's more, with Zhou Fan's terrifying cultivation level, even ten of him might not be his match. If he really dared to have any dissent, he would definitely die miserably.
So Zhao Zhuang shuddered secretly after he reacted and immediately warned the subordinates around him.
"There are some things! Even if I give them to you, you won't be able to enjoy them!"
"The Feng Ying Army is not a vegetarian. If you are not strong enough, you will see if they don't chop you into pieces!"
Zhao Zhuang's words were a reminder to everyone and himself, and they were also a way to express his attitude to Zhou Fan.
A dozen spiritual masters who originally had other thoughts couldn't help but shudder when they heard this, and they all came to their senses at this moment.
No one was a fool, and they all understood the meaning of Zhao Zhuang's words.
Zhao Zhuang is right, even if Zhou Fan gives them the white sword, they will only become the target of public criticism and may be killed at any time to seize the treasure.
Even if they can escape countless greedy people, will the Wind Shadow Army obey the orders of a person with weak cultivation?
The answer is absolutely no!
Not to mention others, I am afraid that the man in black who was in the early stage of the Spiritual General Realm and was surrounded by them at the moment would have beaten them to death in minutes.
"Elder, forgive me! Forgive us for our unintentional offense!"
"Elder, please forgive me. We didn't mean to offend..."
More than a dozen spiritual masters corrected their attitudes and were extremely polite to Zhou Fan.
"Elder! Do you plan to control the Wind Shadow Army?"
"They are the army of Sakura Kingdom, you?"
Zhao Zhuang on the side hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask.
"You don't have to worry. No matter what forces I control, I will never betray the Spiritual Forbidden Master Alliance. This Longxia Kingdom is also the country I love."
Zhou Fan naturally knew the meaning of Zhao Zhuang's question, so he expressed his attitude directly.
Zhao Zhuang and others all secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and then everyone became excited.
Now that the Longxia Kingdom is being invaded by the Sakura Kingdom, if they can secretly instigate a rebellion against the Wind Shadow Army, it will definitely give the Longxia Kingdom an advantage.
But all this is a bit far away. What they should consider now is how to find the ASEAN leader and others to leave this forbidden place together.
After the misunderstanding was resolved, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention the white sword in the hands of Feng Yingjun and Zhou Fan again.
Everyone rested in the mountain stream for most of the day, and after basically recovering from their injuries, they headed towards the direction of the reed marsh.
The so-called reed marshes are the countless dense reeds beside the Blackwater River.
The ASEAN Lord, Right Protector and others entered the Blackwater River from there, and there were dozens of spiritual masters responsible for staying in the reed swamp.
Zhou Fan learned that the dozen spiritual masters rescued this time were actually because they had not eaten for many days, so he went hunting in the mountains and forests to find food.
It's just that they were a little unlucky and encountered the big snake, so they hurriedly fled for their lives and stayed away from the reed swamp.
"Clang!"
"Qiang Qiang Qiang..."
Just when Zhou Fan and others drove for a long time and arrived at a reed swamp, they suddenly heard the sound of fighting in the distance.
"Not good! Maybe the captain and the others are in danger!"
"Elder! Do we want to go to support?"
More than a dozen spiritual masters now regarded Zhou Fan as their backbone, so they asked for his opinion one after another.
"Let's go! Go and check the situation first. Don't take action without my order!"
"yes!"
Zhou Fan did not hesitate, and after giving everyone a warning, he led them in the direction where the sound of fighting came from.
Soon, the group of them saw hundreds of men in black besieging dozens of spiritual masters in a reed swamp.
Those spiritual masters were obviously at the end of their rape. Not only were they all injured, but they were also surrounded by men in black.
"Lord Chuunin! I am willing to surrender and please spare my life!"
As the top experts from the two sides decided the winner, Captain Scar, who was stubbornly resisting on the side of the Spiritual Imperial Master, took the initiative to surrender after finding it difficult to escape.
"Captain! How can you surrender to the enemy?"
