Chapter 154 Burning with Rage

“Wu—!”

The youngster on the noose screamed, but only whimpers came forth because he was gagged.

His face was contorted with pain, and blood spurted from his broken arm like a waterfall. But no matter how he struggled, it was useless.

The Magi Brute man seemed to enjoy hearing the tragic screams. He brought his sharp blade up and severed the youngster’s other arm in a quick and skillful motion. Clearly, it wasn’t his first time doing such a thing.

Si—

The two broken arms floated up and down in the boiling water and striking red blood splashed like waves.

The youngster’s body went still as he fainted from the pain.

The imprisoned soldiers in the nearby row of cages went crazy from the shock. Angry curses and screams mingled with roars of panic and despair constantly rang out.

However, that only drew roars of laughter from the Magi Brute experts.

“Human bastards are so weak. They can’t even withstand a little pain.”

The Magi Brute man cursed. He picked up a wooden bucket of cold water and doused the youngster. The youngster woke up, face deathly pale to the point of almost transparent. He fiercely grimaced with pain.

Pu! Pu! Pu!

The Magi Brute man again raised his blade and swiftly cut off the youngster’s ears, feet, and legs like he was slaughtering an animal. Blood flowed everywhere as he tossed every part of the youngster’s body into the iron pot.

The empire soldiers almost collapsed in the cages when they saw such a cruel and bloody scene. They screamed and roared endlessly, full of indescribable rage and bitterness.

Atop the mountain in the distance, Lin Xun had an ice-cold look on his face and his dark eyes were filled with thick unconcealable murderous intent.

Every cut on the youngster’s body felt like an invisible sharp thorn stabbing into Lin Xun’s heart.

The youngster’s grimace and terrified expression, the furious roars from the cages, the savage and sinister roars of laughter from the Magi Brute cultivators, the splatter of blood in the bubbling iron pot…

Every scene made Lin Xun so angry that the veins were popping on his forehead and his blood was boiling to the point of exploding like coal was stuffed into his chest.

He knew that the Magi Brute Race was the sworn enemy of the empire. He also knew that many cruel tortures and punishments existed in the world. But he still couldn’t control his anger when he saw his people being slaughtered like animals!

Just as Lin Xun was about to rush out, an indescribable terrifying feeling rose to his heart. Lin Xun instantly calmed down. He had almost been blinded with anger.

He cast his eyes over the camp in the canyon and noticed a few problems. There were thirty-nine Magi Brute experts in the camp but only three were ninth-level brute slaves.

Ninth-level brute slaves were equivalent to ninth layer True Martial cultivators in the empire.

Besides the three ninth-level brute slaves, the other Magi Brute experts were all below the ninth-level.

Their combined powers wouldn’t be enough to deal with the elite students from Blood Kill Camp yet they look so fearless. It’s very abnormal that they chose such an easily noticeable location to set up a camp but also captured so many empire soldiers. They don’t need to openly torture the empire soldiers. They seemed to be deliberately cutting off the flesh of the empire soldiers in front of everyone. But why would they do that?

A thought struck Lin Xun’s mind. It’s a trap! Their purpose is to lure empire cultivators to jump out to save the soldiers!

Lin Xun felt goosebumps knowing that he almost jumped out and exposed himself.

The trap wasn’t sophisticated and could be described as simple and rough, but who would be able to think clearly after seeing Magi Brute experts slaughter empire soldiers?

Lin Xun’s face was ice cold. He drew several deep breaths to suppress his anger and murderous intent. Then, he patiently waited.

The wait was torturous.

After the youngster was slaughtered and his body was cooked in the iron pot, an even more cruel scene followed. His flesh and blood were served on a plate and became food for other Magi Brute experts in the camp!

Lin Xun felt an impulse to charge into the camp several times when he saw the bloody and barbaric scene. But his rationality told him that, if he did so, he would fall into a trap and might even fail to save anyone.

The intense conflict between his rationality and emotions tortured his mind like fire. He had to clench his teeth and control his impulse with all his powers.

Soon, night fell.

The bonfire burned fiercely in the camp, becoming more and more eye-catching. It was as though they didn’t care that enemies could be watching them.

That night, the Magi Brute experts again slaughtered three captured empire soldiers in the same way.

Lin Xun quietly watched. He watched intently. He wanted to remember everything. He couldn’t miss any little details!

Lin Xun finally understood why there was unresolved hatred between the empire and the Magi Brute Race because no one could forgive such crimes!

Dawn broke but nothing changed in the camp. No empire cultivator jumped out, which seemed to disappoint the Magi Brute experts.

Just when the Magi Brute man was about to slaughter another empire soldier, someone stopped him.

It was a middle-aged man at the ninth-level Brute Slave. His eyes were a dazzling gold and he clearly was from the Gold Brute Tribe.

“It seems that there are no human bastards nearby.”

The middle-aged man made a strange and obscure long whistle.

Before his whistle died away, eight figures suddenly emerged on the mountain behind the camp. In the blink of an eye, they had already landed in the camp.

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. The figures were all ninth-level Brute Slaves! They had been hiding and waiting for prey to walk into their trap!

The middle-aged man discussed with the other ninth-level Brute Slaves and, as though they had reached some kind of decision, seven ninth-level Brute Slaves left with a group of Magi Brute experts.

Only four ninth-level brute slaves and fourteen Magi Brute experts weaker than the ninth-level remained in the camp. The middle-aged man also stayed behind.

After lying in wait all night, Lin Xun felt murderous intent and anger that he had accumulated and forcibly suppressed for a long time suddenly bubbling like lava.

The opportunity is here!

……

In the canyon camp, a ninth-level brute slave strode towards a cage and, with a lewd smile, dragged out a young woman. He pushed her to the ground and stripped her clothes.

The young woman screamed in terror and anger and tried to struggle free, but the ninth-level brute slave smiled smugly and pressed his body on hers.

“Dirty human bitch! It’s your honor that I’m playing with you! You dare to scream! You’re so ungrateful!”

The other Magi Brute experts in the camp roared with laughter.

The empire soldiers in the cages all roared with rage.

Just as the young woman was about to be raped, a shaft of light shot out and a piercing whistle rang in everyone’s ears.

It was an arrow fired with incredible speed. With a boom, it pierced through the brute slave’s shoulder and blasted him into the distance.

“Enemies attack!”

“Enemies attack!”

The camp was thrown into chaos. The group of Magi Brute experts roared and began to act.

Swoosh!

Lin Xun didn’t evade at all. He charged directly into the camp, constantly swinging his Defeat Army Blade. He instantly killed the three Magi Brute experts in front, sending blood spurt everywhere.

Lin Xun didn’t pause once. He quickly charged forward, his black hair fluttering in the air, his handsome face biting cold, and his dark eyes blazing with lava-like killing intent.

Die!

He felt his entire body was burning. Hatred and anger surged like raging waves in his heart. He brought out everything he had learned to its fullest.

He swung his blade!

At that moment, Lin Xun resembled a blade shooting out from the abyss. He killed with the most overbearing means and slaughtered with the coldest method.

Blood spattered in all directions.

Limbs flew everywhere.

Tragic screams rang endlessly.

It was as though Lin Xun didn’t realize that he only had one thought in his mind: to kill all the wicked Magi Brute bastards!

The camp was in utter chaos. Who would have thought that a youngster would use such cold-blooded and terrifying fighting means?

He was completely different from the Black Wind Army soldiers who they had seen before. He was too terrifying!

Bang!

Lin Xun’s arm suddenly felt numb and he saw his Defeat Army Blade was blocked. A ninth-level brute slave appeared opposite him, wielding a huge hammer. The brute slave suddenly charged toward him.

Lin Xun didn’t dodge and met the attacker head-on. The heavy hammer struck his shoulder and his body swayed a little but he continued to charge forward. He thrust his blade into the opponent’s stomach and suddenly made a twisting motion. Violent aeth power gushed forth and blasted the opponent away like a piece of paper. The brute slave died an instant violent death.

The battle of life and death made many Magi Brute experts feel a chill in their hearts as they trembled inwardly.

Where did the youngster come from?

So terrifying!

Lin Xun felt a throbbing pain in his shoulder as if his bones about to shatter, but he didn’t seem to care. He raised his blade and continued to charge forward. He looked as tough and ruthless as the god of death.

“Hurry and capture him!”

“Everyone!”

Amidst furious roars, Magi Brute experts constantly charged forward, trying to surround and kill Lin Xun.

However…

It was destined to be futile. Since training in Blood Kill Camp, Lin Xun’s strength had reached an astonishing level. Even most ninth layer True Martial cultivators were no match for him.

For example, Wen Mingxiu, Xiao Kun, and Hu Long were all extremely outstanding and possessed a cultivation base at the pinnacle ninth layer True Martial Stage yet they still miserably lost to Lin Xun.

Furthermore, Lin Xun hadn’t started to practice the Mystery Grotto Devour Wilderness Scripture when he fought Xiao Kun!

Now, not even Instructor Xiaoke could tell how strong Lin Xun had become!

Under such circumstances, it would be useless if the Magi Brute experts tried to take advantage of their numbers to deal with Lin Xun.

Die!

Magi Brute experts were killed one after another, and corpses were quickly piled high on the ground.

On the other side of the camp, the empire soldiers in the cages were dumbfounded watching the battle.

The demon-like youngster bathed in blood was their savior but he seemed as unbelievable and unreal as a dream.
