My name is Hua Buqun, a casual cultivator in the world. What is different from other casual cultivators is that I have a good reputation and am known as the "Gentleman's Sword".
On weekdays, I try my best to make everything I say and do conform to the word 'gentleman', because I know very well how important this title is to me.
Yes, I am not a true gentleman, I am just one of the ordinary people struggling to survive in this world.
But compared to others, I am a little smarter and I know better how to use the power of fame.
Therefore, because of the title of 'Gentleman's Sword', some small forces usually treat me as a guest of honor, and other casual cultivators will also sell me some thin noodles.
This makes my life relatively moist and more decent at the same time.
However, everything has two sides. This time, I had to come to Xuanyang Territory because of the title "Junzi Sword", and because my reputation was high enough, I also took on the important task of commanding the casual cultivators.
Xuanyang Domain is very strange, this was my first impression when I came here.
The close cooperation between the city lord of Xuanyang Giant City and the local forces is also second. The key is that I discovered that the extraterrestrial visitors here are very active.
I have always felt that aliens are creatures that, although similar to us, are actually completely different.
They are eager to fight, and it can even be said that they are afraid of the world being in chaos. Some of their thoughts and actions cannot be understood from an ordinary person's perspective. Sometimes they are very serious, and sometimes they are playful and smiling.
If we use the words of the aliens themselves, they are a bunch of lunatics.
Yes, I think I know a lot about extraterrestrials, and I have had many contacts with them in private. However, it is not that I take the initiative to contact them, but there are a few extraterrestrials that pester me every day.
The reason is just because they heard my name and title.
I don't like them because they look at me very strangely and can even be said to be extremely rude!
So I don't understand that in such an important decisive battle, the leaders of the Xuanyang Alliance pay much more attention to the aliens than us casual cultivators.
But when the battle started, I vaguely seemed to understand something.
The battlefield in the west where I am located is very chaotic. The Xuanyang Alliance did not assign us any major tasks before. They just said that when the battle begins, we can do whatever we want.
Even during the battle, if you want to leave, no one will stand up to stop you.
In short, what I understand is that it is the same with or without us.
This attitude also made me give up the idea of negotiating remuneration with them. This is also one of my daily tasks. Every day, a small force will be established and a small force will die.
The Daxuan Dynasty just let it go. As long as they didn't cause trouble in the city and didn't harm the civilians, most of the managers turned a blind eye.
My role is to organize some casual cultivators who want to make money and accept employment from one force to join the battle between the forces.
Because of my title, many small forces trust me, and at least they don't have to worry about me regretting it after the war or stabbing me in the face.
But also because of this title, I must be cautious in every choice I make, and the employer I decide must be just. After all, I know that my current status depends entirely on my reputation.
The reputation was ruined, and Hua Buqun was finished.
In my opinion, there is absolutely no money to be made in this battle. First of all, Xuanyang Alliance's attitude towards casual cultivators is that it doesn't matter if you come, it doesn't matter if you don't come. In short, don't mess with what you are doing.
The key point is that some of the casual cultivators did not want to gain any benefits. They were just influenced by the name of the hero and spontaneously came to help the people of Xuanyang Territory resist the beast tide.
On the way here, I also met some displaced villagers, and even witnessed the entire process of a small village being submerged by a herd of beasts.
Although a trace of pity arose in my heart, I knew that this emotion was too much for me.
Besides, I have seen some similar phenomena before. Compared with beasts eating people, people eating people is actually more terrifying.
Sometimes death is not the most painful thing. There are many tragic things happening in the world that are worse than death.
I am very entangled and worried, because I am afraid of death, but I can't quit. At least at this time, if I quit, all the reputation I have worked hard to build for many years will be lost.
With this uneasy feeling, the war started.
The Xuanyang Alliance was well prepared and gave the Giant Ape King a disastrous start. The subsequent division tactics also prevented us from being overwhelmed by the overwhelming force of the herd immediately.
But fighting on the western battlefield is still very difficult, and the disparity in the number of warriors and ferocious beasts is secondary, because I found that some casual cultivators do not seem to be fighting purely for justice.
They paddled clearly, and unless they were forced to do something by a ferocious beast, they would just wander around.
I felt something was wrong, but I still couldn't retreat. After all, the battle had just begun.
At this time, the aliens began to show off their power. They used a strange hand crossbow to shoot wooden sticks at the bodies of the earth-eating beasts.
Immediately, the earth-eating beast began to go berserk, and then frantically attacked the surrounding beasts. The scene was so poignant that after watching it once, I no longer wanted to watch it a second time.
However, it must be admitted that this tactic is very effective, so I began to arrange some casual cultivators to protect the extraterrestrial visitors.
At the same time, I am also thinking in my mind that if I win this war, as a commander among the casual cultivators, this will undoubtedly greatly improve my reputation.
At least in the casual cultivator circle, I have another deed worth bragging about.
But things often do not go so smoothly. After some extraterrestrial visitors left inexplicably, the pressure on the western battlefield gradually increased, although there were still some extraterrestrial visitors who also used their crossbows to attack the earth-eating beasts.
But their cooperation was poor, and as a result, the casualties among those of us who gathered temporarily began to rise sharply.
I had the idea of quitting again, so I was thinking of a reasonable way, even if I took the opportunity to get a little injured.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After all, living is the most important thing.
But what happened next shattered the three views I had cultivated over the years, and the idea of quitting also dissipated.
A human face as huge as a mountain, an oppressive feeling as terrifying as the power of God, and a powerful aura that cannot be described in words.
That was Qin Fan, a very unusual man from what I knew.
As the owner of Wuyou Villa, and also vaguely the true leader of the Xuanyang Alliance, he is just a patient who cannot practice martial arts and will not die soon.
There is no doubt that there are many secrets in him. I even heard that Wuyou Villa was inherited by a top force that disappeared in the long history of history.
Based on my many years of experience in the world of martial arts, I avoid these people whenever I can, because secrets mean trouble.
But at this moment, some of my inherent impressions were shattered. I didn't dare to look up at that huge human face, but I felt confident that this battle would be won.
But then reality hit me hard. Some of the strange casual cultivators I had been paying attention to suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The other part took off its disguise, revealing the standard dark green robe of the Ten Thousand Poison Palace, and then rushed into the group of ferocious beasts and began to release poison.
Originally, I thought they were helping us, but what I saw was that the poisoned beasts were not dead, but instead rushed towards the same location one by one like crazy.
At this moment, the Western battlefield collapsed, and some people in the world who had tried their best to resist were overwhelmed by the ferocious beast's renewed momentum.
I and other surviving casual cultivators took the opportunity to hide in a mountain stream.
"what to do?"
In fact, I regretted asking these three words, because those who wanted to give up the fight had already run away. Although the beast's attack was fierce, it was obviously heading towards the central battlefield.
Except for some warriors who were unable to escape from the ferocious beasts at the beginning, others could still manage to escape with a little care.
"I want to avenge Brother Zhang!" A warrior with a baby face clenched his fists and said with tears in his eyes.
"I also want to avenge my brother! If I retreat now, how will I explain to his family when I go back!" A big man's eyes were red, and the big knife clenched in his right hand began to tremble due to excessive emotion.
"This battle can be won! And Master Qin... But why didn't he take action just now? Could it be that he deliberately allowed those ferocious beasts to kill us all!"
A warrior lowered his head, his lip had been bitten, and little drops of bright red blood dripped to the ground.
Hua Buqun knew that he had to stand up at this moment, so he said seriously:
"Zhuang Master Qin must have been held back by a stronger master. You can see that those ferocious beasts are gathering towards the central battlefield. This situation is obviously not right."
Hua Buqun knew that this was actually a good opportunity to withdraw. As long as he secretly fanned the flames with a few words, he could make everyone direct their hatred towards Qin Fan, and then he could reasonably withdraw from the battlefield.
But he didn't dare. The impression given to him by that huge human face was too terrifying. He was very sure that even if the beast side won the decisive battle, Master Qin would not die.
Once he is settled afterwards, he will definitely die.
More importantly, he found that only a few people present agreed with what the warrior said just now. Others seemed to think that Qin Fan was held back by some reason.
Even if you don't speak up, someone will immediately stand up and oppose that person's statement.
After all, warriors naturally respect the strong, and during this period they had heard Master Qin's reputation as an excellent one, and his reputation for benevolence spread throughout the Chaos Realm.
Unless there is accurate evidence, it is difficult to overturn Qin Fan's persona based on mere conjecture.
Moreover, those who are staying here now want to continue fighting. Their only hope for victory is Qin Fan, and no one will personally kill him at this moment.
"Senior Hua, I just saw that the Red Robe Army and Xuanyang Guards have moved to the central battlefield and completely intercepted the ferocious beast group. Let's go join them and take the opportunity to kill a few more beast cubs!"
Hua Buqun nodded. This suggestion could not only save his life to the greatest extent, but also ensure that his reputation would not collapse.
In fact, he still had a small thought in his mind, because Qin Fan was the most powerful warrior he had ever seen. If he could take the opportunity to make his presence felt in front of him, it would always be beneficial and harmless to him.
Then everyone headed towards the central battlefield. Hua Buqun did not see Mo Haolin, but was placed at a gap by a lieutenant of the Red Robe Army.
Most of the pressure from the ferocious beast was blocked by the Red Robe Army and Xuanyang Guards, but even this small amount of pressure made everyone fight extremely hard.
Even though one companion fell down one after another, the others did not choose to leave.
Some of these warriors are fighting for justice in their hearts, some are seeking revenge, some are longing for a thrilling battle, and some may be like Hua Buqun, fighting until they reach the point of no retreat.
At this moment, Hua Buqun's white shirt was also dyed red, and the right hand holding the hilt of the sword began to tremble slightly. He subconsciously waved the long sword to kill one ferocious beast after another, but his brain was completely confused.
"I should leave. With my strength, if I run now, it's too late!"
As the vicious beast began to burn its vitality because of Wu Yong's legacy, Hua Buqun's heart began to waver crazily.
Until...
"Senior Hua, help me take revenge!" The baby-faced warrior blocked Hua Buqun's back, and his chest was penetrated by the right claw of a gale-force leopard.
But the long knife in his hand was held very firmly, and even when he was about to die, he used all his strength to split the leopard's head in half with one knife.
At this moment, Hua Buqun had no time to feel sad. He didn't even bother to take a look at the warrior's body because several more ferocious beasts were rushing toward him. But at this moment, there was only one word left in his heart.
Kill——! Kill kill kill kill!
He has given up the idea of escape, because he is sure that once he leaves here, he will spend every day in repentance!
The warrior's bloody nature was fully aroused, and his sword no longer hesitated. The same was true for other warriors. When they were immersed in the killing, they also turned into terrifying beasts.
But unlike the ferocious beasts in front of them, there was still a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
The huge human face also appeared in the sky again at this time.
--it's over.
Hua Buqun looked at his feet blankly, and said the words on the huge human face: "Go and greet your victory."
His rationality had disappeared, and he only knew that he was killing and killing until the cheers of the crowd woke him up.
"You win, right?"
The surviving warriors on the side gave extremely positive answers, but when everyone looked at the corpses of their companions mixed in with the beast corpses, everyone gradually calmed down from their joyful mood.
They spontaneously moved the corpses one by one to the blood-soaked open space next to them, silently performing this mechanical movement.
"Hua Buqun, the owner of the village wants to see you."
Hua Buqun, who was originally carrying the corpse together, looked stunned. He saw a man carrying a long bow suddenly appeared in front of him, nodded and followed him.
At the same time, he secretly made a decision in his heart that he must fight for settlement funds for his dead brothers, even if he tried to offend Qin Fan.
This is all for his character, yes, he is a gentleman's sword, and he must stand up at this time!
"Master Qin..."
As a result, as soon as he started speaking, Qin Fan interrupted: "You are all heroes, thank you for your help."
"I......"
Seeing Qin Fan bend down and salute, Hua Buqun was speechless for a moment, but after biting his lip, he decided to continue fighting for the settlement allowance.
But this time he was interrupted again by Qin Fan:
"Later on the issue of loot, the Red Robe Army, Xuanyang Guards, Dark Alliance and Extraterrestrial Visitors will each send a representative to discuss it with you.
As for the pensions of these dead heroes, I will entrust the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce to take me to transfer them to the families of the deceased. This also requires some help from you.
In addition, the fourth shopkeeper of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has sent a large caravan to calculate the value of the loot. Later, those materials will be converted into gold and silver, which will also facilitate your distribution.
But I do have a suggestion..."
"What?" Hua Buqun asked subconsciously. At this moment, he had discovered that Qin Fan was completely different from the masters of power he usually encountered.
He felt real respect for his attitude, which made him feel inexplicably moved. After all, the other party was so powerful, but he felt a little flattered.
"Look there." Qin Fan pointed to the back.
Hua Buqun blinked and turned his gaze to the Wuli Ghost River in the distance. He was shocked and speechless by the shocking sight in front of him.
