《World of Experts 》Chapter 174: Iron Blooded Shadow Guard
Advertisement
“Humph!” Wu Batian himself was also not an ignorant person. He saw the genuine dragon roar of Feng Tianhao and naturally stopped his clumsy version. Merely, he would never miss the chance to attack Twin Dragons Village. He said: “What if you all came? Now, with these people in my hands, what can you do?”
Yes, the people were in the hands of Heroic Overlord Under Heaven and no one had the means to instantly move. How could they deal with this matter?
Fortunately, although the other people were helpless, a person still had some ways.
Who was that person? That person was Su Wu, who was beside Su Xiao.
When Su Wu traveled to West Flower Region, he naturally didn’t come alone.
But Su Wu could confidently say that since coming to West Flower Region, no one had seen the troops he brought. However, his troops had never been too far away from Su Wu. They were still within the range where they could hear his whispers. Moreover, they were prepared to take action at all times.
The other people basically didn’t notice his troops because of a simple reason. All the troops he brought were shadow guards.
Su Wu had brought them to give them a chance to show their tricks to the people of Twin Dragons Village so that Twin Dragons Village would fully recognize the value of Tusu Village’s Shadow Guards.
After all, last time, Blowing Wind Left A Passion had seen the shadow guards in a miserable state. Therefore, Twin Dragons Village might not have a good impression of the shadow guards. Even if Blowing Wind Left A Passion beautified the matter considering the face of Su Xiao, it wouldn’t be as good as personally witnessing the good performance of the shadow guards.
Soon, not long after Heroic Overlord Under Heaven had finished speaking, the shadow guards, who were secretly ordered by Su Wu, took advantage of their 20 seconds stealth advantage and quietly approached the target from one side.
Speaking about it, it might be because of the setback suffered from Mu Mengmeng, Su Wu had strengthened the training of shadow guards by a lot. Their actions had become more orderly. There were not many chaotic and redundant actions. They smoothly reached beside the hostages.

Merely, the time limit of their invisibility was approaching.
According to Su Wu’s command, they needed to safely break the rope that tied the villagers, which was not a difficult matter. However, they also needed to take villagers away afterward, which was not an easy task. They might suffer casualties among them.
One should know that all shadow guards needed to enter the Shadow Pavilion to learn the skill. The Shadow Pavilion was a special building where NPCs could learn skills, but only regular NPCs could enter it.
In other words, the shadow guards were entirely made up of regular NPCs. There was basically no possibility of resurrection after death!
However, Su Wu didn’t care about these things. At this moment, the thing he cared most about was to make these shadow guards show off in front of the people of Twin Dragons Village.
“Do it!” Su Wu gave the order.
At that moment, Wu Batian’s smile had reached the brightest point. Upon a closer look, the people around Wu Batian were nothing special. Only Yuwen Chengdu, although his expression was still the same, his eyes seemed to be staring at those hostages. He should have noticed something unusual.
Yuwen Chengdu was about to go over to check, but he suddenly thought of something, and as if he didn’t notice anything, he stood there in silence and daze, waiting for the changes to happen.
Sure enough, the ropes of the captured ‘hostages’ of Tranquil Water Village were simultaneously cut off by a group of people in black that appeared magically.
These hostages suddenly became free!
Unfortunately, they didn’t have much time to be happy. Fan Chou, who was not far away from them, had also noticed it.
Fan Chou had a hideous look as if he had a deep-seated hatred and he made a move. After all, if he let those hostages escape from his hands, then he would definitely not have a good time when they returned to Heavenly Dragon Village. Wu Batian had never been merciful to ‘good-for-nothing’ people.
In fact, if you were as strong as Yuwen Chengdu, then in Wu Batian’s place, you would be the uncle. For example, last time when Yuwen Chengdu had given away Bright Silver Stroke Halbert to Shake the Heaven, Wu Batian didn’t say any awful sharp words to Yuwen Chengdu, on the contrary, he encouraged, “Chengdu, you have done well. This act of devotion to protect your lord is honestly an example for all generations…”

Actually, if an ordinary person had done this, then Wu Batian would have definitely cursed you endlessly. Intentionally giving an epic-grade weapon to Twin Dragons Village, was this tolerable? If Wu Batian didn’t chop you into pieces, then he would write his name backward.
Fan Chou, who had followed Wu Batian for a long time, was very clear about this. Therefore, in his eyes, those people, who wanted to rescue the hostages, were all irrevocable enemies. And those hostages that wanted to run away were all brothers of the enemies, don’t even think about escaping alive.
In an instant, Fan Chou took action. The speed of his war horse was far faster than those villagers who had just regained their freedom. They didn’t even have the time to take out their war horses.
Fan Chou arrived behind a villager and used his unique skill, level 3 Powerful Double Slash.
Looking carefully, after using the skill, Fan Chou’s single attack would deal double damage, and his attack was 128 points.
And that fleeing villager’s profession was a knight, had the defense of 87 points and HP of 48 points.
Therefore, after Fan Chou used Powerful Double Slash, his one move could easily kill that person of Tranquil Water Village.
“Die!” Fan Chou launched a double slash, rushing towards that villager in the front.
That villager didn’t turn around. Even if he turned around, there would be no difference. He didn’t have the ability of Lu Bu, who could dodge the four consecutive slashes of Yuwen Chengdu.
“Save me…” He screamed helplessly and continued to rush towards Tranquil Water Village.
In his view, death was coming, both day and night were dark without any light for him.
However, everyone had a desire to survive. He never looked back and also never stopped running.
Finally, a miracle happened. He was able to successfully return to the side of Zhang Yang.
He was at ease. He was safe here. No matter how arrogant those hooligans were, they wouldn’t dare to attack Lord Zhang Yang. They just look for people like them who were not the officials of Divine and Mighty Alliance to bully. These were just paper tigers, would they dare to attack the real official? Attacking the officials without any reason, especially the same-ranked or higher-ranked officials, was regarded as a very big capital crime in the Divine and Mighty Alliance.
Therefore, he sighed and turned to look at those sacrificed companions…
“This…” He was shocked. Somehow, all his companions had escaped successfully, one, two, three… all had returned.
He didn’t dare to believe that this was luck. If one person was able to escape, it was luck, but if the entire group of people was able to escape, it couldn’t be a matter of luck. Something must have happened.
He carefully looked over again.
He saw that Fan Chou’s blade was dripping with blood, which was absolutely the sign that he had killed people. Moreover, the corpses that were yet to be dissipated by the system were still lying in the pool of blood.
All those corpses had two cut marks. Naturally, those cut marks on the corpses were the result of Fan Chou’s Powerful Double Slash.
Upon seeing this situation, his expression flickered. He didn’t know who those people were and where they came from.
But he was just an ordinary villager with children and a wife. He was truly grateful to these people.
He didn’t know what to say.
He truly hoped that someone would tell him what to say in front of the corpses of these people who used their life to save him.
He and his companions who had escaped alive prayed silently.
Gradually, the other people on the scene also realized the various things that happened just now…
