The silver sword was right behind him, chasing after the fleeing men in black.
“Save us, my Lord!”
Everyone ran out of the straw hut they had just entered.
At this moment, Xiaohua had regained some consciousness. She crawled to her husband and called out softly, “Chen Lang…”
However, Chen Lang remained motionless.
At the same time, the group of men in black screamed and ran toward her house. Xiaohua looked over, only to see a silver sword floating in front of her child, and her child was floating in the air!
Because the child had suffered such a huge shock and was surrounded by so many strangers, he cried even louder.
In front of the child and the silver sword was the group of shameless men in black who had just bullied her and her husband!
No matter how much Xiaohua didn’t believe what she was seeing, she subconsciously knew that the silver sword wouldn’t harm her. Instead, it was protecting her and her child!
The group of men in black quickly ran up to Xiaohua’s side, shouting, “Help! Help, my Lord!”
The silver sword quickly caught up to them and was about to fly out. Seeing this, Xiaohua swallowed her saliva nervously and subconsciously clasped her palms together. She silently prayed, “Heavenly God, thank you for saving us.”
It didn’t matter where this silver sword had come from. To Xiaohua, the omnipotent and invincible Heavenly God had to be real! How else would she explain what had happened tonight?
The silver sword seemed to be able to understand what Xiaohua had just said. It paused and stopped moving. Then, it gently floated the child in front of the woman. Xiaohua’s heart stopped for a moment, but she suddenly felt a warmth in her heart and her eyes became inexplicably misty.
The next second, Xiaohua stretched out her arms to take her child into her embrace. The moment his warm body touched Xiaohua’s, the latter felt as though something in her heart had dropped.
Without waiting for a moment, she lowered her head to look at her child’s red face, letting out a soft sigh. “Thank God you’re not injured.”
The moment the child returned to his mother’s embrace, the crying stopped and a smile appeared on his face.
Then, the silver sword turned, and a white glow appeared around it. That glow appeared to be the silhouette of a person, which suddenly grew bigger. The next moment, the rays of light slowly converged from the silhouette of the person to a certain point in the air, eventually forming a small ball of light.
Immediately following that, the ball of light flew toward Chen Lang, who was lying motionless on the ground.
Xiaohua was shocked. She immediately knelt down with the child in her arms and hurriedly kowtowed. “Thank you, Heavenly God. Thank you for protecting my family and me!”
Her voice became extremely choked with emotions. “I never thought that there would really be a kind and righteous God in this world! Thank you, my God!”
When Mu Yao, who was using the elixir to conceal herself, heard these words, an indescribable feeling arose in her heart. That woman sounded as though she was willing to sacrifice herself to God. Mu Yao couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.
However, devout believers who believed in God would be happy to die for their beliefs, feeling the kind of happiness a moth flying into a flame felt.
As Mu Yao used some of the elixir’s power to save the man on the ground, she couldn’t help but sympathize with the man. She wouldn’t even mind others discovering her invisibility powers if that was the only way she could save this family.
It was then that she finally understood how it felt for those righteous men whose dream was to save the world.
Mu Yao wanted to be someone like that too.
In the blink of an eye, she exhausted the power of the elixir in her body. In less than an hour, her invisibility powers would also lose its effects too.
If she wanted the elixir to supply her with energy continuously, she had to cultivate herself. As such, Mu Yao had to end the battle quickly.
If she was discovered to be invisible, she would not be the only one in danger. Zichun and Zimo would be implicated as well!
Now that she had drawn aura into her body, she hid herself away, preparing to face the attack of hundreds of men in black alone.She had to make them stop their dirty acts!
Even if it seemed like a suicide mission, Mu Yao knew that no one else could do the job now.
She had already gone through the experience of leaving someone in the lurch. This time, she did not want to be a coward who would hide behind others.
She wanted to defeat them!
Then, the silver sword charged out with a burst of force.
In Xiaohua’s eyes, the silver sword seemed even more holy now. Although there didn’t seem to be any changes on the outside, she couldn’t help but feel that the aura around the silver sword was different.
Meanwhile, the large group of men in black were still crying on the streets in the village.
“Help! Boss!” all the men in black cried out simultaneously. The situation in the other houses was similar to what happened in the previous house.
The only difference was that houses didn’t have what they were after.
Some of the houses had children, but they were no longer newborns.
“What’s wrong! Why are you so flustered!?” A man in black who was covered in blood ran out from inside. When he saw his companions running in such a panic, he said in an amused tone, “You bunch of cowards. Didn’t I ask you guys to search for newborn babies? How can you be scared? What’s there to be afraid of about babies?”
“No! It’s not about the babies! It’s a silver sword!” one of the men wailed.
“What silver sword? Are you hallucinating?” the man drenched in blood asked.
Right at this moment, an incomparably sharp silver sword swiftly pierced through the man who was covered in blood.
Once again, a man in black was stabbed in the chest, and he immediately vomited blood and died! Before the man in black died, he still had a mocking expression on his face. His eyes were wide open as he fell to the ground with a thud.
“Ahh! Boss! Another one down! Hurry up and find Boss!” one of the men instructed.
“Yes!”
The group of men who had escaped ran relentlessly down the street.
However, Mu Yao charged after them without any hesitation. She couldn’t tolerate them any further. She had hoped that the innocent villagers would be spared, but along the way, she saw men in black getting out of every thatched house.
Her heart ached at the sight.
Without exception, all the hands of the men in black were stained with blood. Some of them were even holding the skulls of the citizens!
Mu Yao was so enraged that she didn’t want to face these men. Right now, all she wanted to do was catch this group of men in black who had committed such heinous crimes!
She leaped in front of the men who were lagging behind and immediately raised her sharp silver sword. With a glare, she jumped up, raised her silver sword with both hands, and stabbed at them without a moment’s hesitation!
“All of you should pay the price for your evil deeds!”
Rip!
Mu Yao’s silver sword pierced through the man in black who was running behind her, and the tip of the sword stabbed through the man’s skull onto the ground.
At the same time, the man in black shouted, “Boss…”
Then, the sound stopped abruptly. What replaced the sound was the sound of silver hitting the ground below. With a loud boom, the enormous force created a huge hole in the ground.
The men who had witnessed this scene were all shocked! They raised the weapons in their hands, about to charge toward the silver sword that was inexplicably floating in the air with such powerful force.
“Brothers! This evil creature dared to harm our brothers. Drop everything you’re doing and let’s charge forward to kill it!”
With that, the men in black instantaneously put down the babies, women, children, and corpses in their hands before charging at Mu Yao.
It was only then that Mu Yao truly realized the reality of her situation. She was one against hundreds!
Then, all of the men in black stepped forward and formed a ring around the sword, each with a weapon pointed at the silver sword floating above them.
The next moment, they shouted in unison, “Attack!”
Mu Yao felt like she couldn’t hold on any longer. However, she would lose her invisibility in less than ten minutes.She had to give it her all at this critical moment!
She held her breath for a moment, lowered her eyes, and wholeheartedly felt the power of the elixir in her body. Because she had just used her power to save someone, Mu Yao had lost almost half of her power.
Mu Yao mustered her remaining strength and decided to use her ultimate move to kill all the evil men around her at once.
From an outsider’s point of view, the silver sword emitted a white light, which grew more and more dazzling as it expanded.
Then, the silver sword suddenly rose into the air, causing the white light to suddenly disperse! With that, a large group of men in black in the front spat out blood and collapsed.
Witnessing this, fear arose in the surviving men’s hearts. They immediately shouted, “Boss! Quickly come and save us! We can’t hold on much longer!”
Just as Mu Yao was about to strike the group yet again, a door of a house not far ahead suddenly opened. Out walked their leader, who was smiling and holding a small knife against Zimo and Zichun’s necks.
The old lady’s family followed behind him, all held hostage by the men in black. Then, the boss shouted at Mu Yao, “Heh, you’re finally here..”
