Chapter 369: Why Isn't There a Single Female Prisoner?
"Damn child, I'm going to kill you."
Moments later, a figure soared from the ruins, a terrifying intent to kill sweeping across the area.
Everyone suppressed their discomfort and turned to look, only to see the rebel army general with disheveled hair and a dirt-smudged face standing in the air, his eyes blood-red, glaring intensely at the child and filled with a murderous aura.
Hum!
An evil, cold aura emitted from him as blood streaks rapidly spread across his body.
"You're turning into a monster too?"
Chu Xin blinked her big round eyes and muttered, "Why do you people always like to turn into monsters? It looks really disgusting."
A monster?
The third brother almost lost his temper. This was the Blood Demon Transformation, which could significantly enhance one's strength. Shouldn't this damn child be concerned about the change in strength?
Can't the child feel that my aura is growing stronger?
Can't he see that I am becoming more formidable?
Is he really focusing on my appearance?
Do children really have such bizarre thought processes?
If the strength is strong enough, appearance doesn't really matter, right?
"Child, I am now equivalent to a Late Stage Martial Emperor. This time you will undoubtedly die."
After completing the Blood Demon Transformation, the cold voice of the third brother rang out again.
"Die!"
He shouted angrily, and the horn on his forehead suddenly released a blood-colored beam of light, heading straight for Chu Xin's face.
"One sword, Evil Punishment!"
Chu Xin calmly summoned the Heavenly Slash Sword and swung it fiercely. A dazzling golden Sword Qi ripped through the air, colliding with the blood-colored light.
With a huge booming sound, terrifying shockwaves spread out, shaking the earth and knocking down the surrounding cannon fodder troops and the Blood Puppet army.
Crack! Stay connected through My Virtual Library Empire
After a standoff, the golden Sword Qi pierced through the center of the blood-colored light, splitting it in two, and continued towards the third brother's horn on his forehead.
With a squelch, the Sword Qi cut off the horn.
The third brother screamed in pain, touched the severed horn on his forehead, and roared in horror and anger at Chu Xin, "You damn child, you actually cut off my Demon Horn!"
The Demon Horn was a symbol of the Blood Demon clan; since joining the Blood Demon clan, he had always taken pride in this horn.
Yet today, his pride had been shattered by a sword strike from a child not even five years old, fueling his rage even more.
But just then, Chu Xin had already disappeared from sight.
"Ugly monster, stick your butt up higher."
The next moment, that childish voice sounded again from behind him.
Smack!
Before he could react, another crisp slap resounded.
Accompanied by a scream, the Blood Demon-transformed third brother was once again sent flying, crashing heavily hundreds of meters away on the ground. The whole ground shook, and the surface collapsed instantly, revealing a huge deep crater with a seemingly bottomless black hole in the center.
Hiss!
Everyone gasped in shock; this child was too terrifying. A rebel general, having power comparable to a Late Stage Martial Emperor through the Blood Demon Transformation, still couldn't withstand a single hit from this child. Could it be that the child was already a Peak Martial Emperor?
"Damn it!"
The rebel army commander cursed softly, never having imagined the child's strength to be so formidable.
Perhaps only he could match this child in battle among those present.
But if he were to fight, the Commander of Li Huo City would definitely make a move as well.
By then, facing two Peak Martial Emperors alone, the odds would be grim.
Thinking of this, he looked deeply at Chu Xin, turned his head toward the Blood Robed Man, and said, "Recall the Blood Puppets."
"Alright!"
The Blood Robed Man nodded. He had actually had this intention earlier. In just a brief moment, most of the Blood Puppet army on the battlefield had been absorbed by that brat's Blood Pond. If he didn't recall them now, these Blood Puppets would probably all be snatched away.
The Lord Envoy had entrusted the entire Blood Puppet army of the Fire State to him. How could he explain to the Blood Demon Envoy if they were all lost?
He quickly formed a hand seal, and a scarlet Blood Light burst forth from the Blood Pond.
A terrifying suction emanated, starting to contest with Chu Xin's Blood Pond for the Blood Puppets.
"Damn brat, I'm going to kill you."
At that moment, the third brother surged up from the black hole once again, his hair disheveled, ready to attack Chu Xin once more.
A Martial Emperor, humiliated publicly twice in a row by a brat not even five years old, was nearly driven insane by such a monumental disgrace.
"Third brother, come back," the Rebel Army Commander shouted.
The third brother paused midair, teeth clenching as he glared at Chu Xin, ultimately not launching an attack. He gave Chu Xin a resentful look and snorted coldly before turning away.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, the Blood Puppet army had been completely gathered by the efforts of the two Blood Ponds.
Above Li Huo City, the Commander watched Chu Xin, his face full of deep shock, murmuring to himself, "Such a monstrous prodigy. If he goes to the Imperial City to participate in the competition between the two states, he would surely win the wager for His Majesty."
He had arrived early at Li Huo City with the cannon fodder troops and had not witnessed the battle between Chu Xin and the Longzhou prodigy.
"Brother, let's search," Chu Xin said, seeing that the Blood Puppet army was gone and the Rebel Army showed no signs of wanting to continue fighting.
"Okay!"
The purple-haired Chu Chen nodded excitedly and dashed toward the cannon fodder troops.
Chu Xin also withdrew her Blood Pond and descended towards the location of the cannon fodder troops.
"What are they doing?"
The people in the cannon fodder troops instinctively stepped back a few steps, truly frightened by the two overwhelming kids charging directly at them, thinking they had gone berserk and were about to attack them.
The siblings moved incredibly fast, circling the cannon fodder troops in a blink, but they did not find any female prisoners.
"Why aren't there any?"
Chu Xin frowned and looked visibly troubled.
"Search again, we must have missed something," Chu Xin murmured, then began to circulate around the cannon fodder troops again.
"What are they doing?"
The Teleportation Array Guard, along with the other officials from Li Huo City, watched the scene, utterly baffled and unable to react for a long time.
As they wondered, nine kids soared into the air, seven of whom entered the body of the kid wearing the phoenix-shaped mask, leaving the remaining two who flashed before the Teleportation Array Guard.
"Big brother, why aren't there any female prisoners here?" Chu Xin asked, looking up in confusion.
"Female prisoners?"
The Teleportation Array Guard paused, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, the Commander has always been in charge of the cannon fodder troops. Those female prisoners might have all died, or they might have been dispatched elsewhere. To know for sure, you'll have to ask the Commander. But why are you looking for female prisoners?"
"Never mind that, just take us to see that Commander," Chu Xin urged.
"Okay!"
The Teleportation Array Guard hesitated for a moment, then nodded, leading Chu Xin and the purple-haired Chu Chen towards Li Huo City.
