Chapter 1540: Chapter 786: Locust Tree Village (Part 3)

Li Yan’s upper body remained still as he kicked upward beneath the table.

Bang!

Zhou Dayong was kicked directly in the abdomen, flying backward.

"Be careful on the roof..."

Sha Lifei chuckled lightly, not even bothering to look as he pulled the trigger toward the rooftop.

Bam——!

With a loud bang, dust and tiles came crashing down.

Also falling were two young men wielding knives.

These were just ordinary villagers, so Li Yan and his people held back. But the two who fell still had ferocious expressions, charging at them with their knives.

"Courting death!"

A murderous gleam flashed in Sha Lifei’s eyes. He no longer held back, drawing his knife and swinging it left and right.

Dealing with these regular people, he couldn’t be bothered to waste more ammunition.

A strong young man who lunged first was slashed open at the chest, but what gushed out was not hot blood, but a mass of tangled, wet gray-white silk, still twitching violently.

Bam!

Wu Ba stepped forward, throwing a punch.

With the Eight Extremes Fist Hammer Technique, combined with Wu Ba’s astounding strength, it was like a cannonball.

With a boom, the young man was blown apart, his organs falling out, mixed with a large amount of silk, writhing like a living creature.

Long Yan’er saw this and shook her head, sighing, "The organs have all been eroded, there’s no saving them."

The deadly quiet mountain hollow was completely shattered by Sha Lifei’s gunfire.

The group walked out of the house, seeing the villagers who were once like clay statues and wooden carvings under the trees, behind the eaves, by the piles of firewood, whose pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints, growling beast-like from their throats.

Hoes, firewood knives, sickles, they grabbed whatever they could reach, faces full of madness, smashing down towards the people in the courtyard!

The roof tiles clattered as more villagers, faces ashen, saliva dripping thickly from their mouths, crawled out clumsily from the attic shadows, jumping down like waking zombies.

"Not one can escape!"

From the direction of the ancestral hall came the shrill, crazed screech of the limping old man, like a night owl, "The mistress demands a blood feast! Cut out their tongues to feed the divine silkworms—!"

Ordinary people would probably be scared out of their wits if they encountered this. But Li Yan and his group had been through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, so how could they care.

The others didn’t even move, only Lv San patted the demon gourd at his waist.

Buzz!

A black cloud rose suddenly, a dense mass of tiny poison bees swarming out from the gourd, their buzzing forming a hair-raising drone, swooping directly at the incoming villagers.

Lv San’s poison bees, with help from Long Yan’er for training and feeding, were even more ferocious.

Those stung emitted inhuman wails.

Although all these villagers were cursed, not everyone was like those before, who had their organs eroded and felt no pain.

The intense pain gave rise to fear, causing them to scatter chaotically, crying out for their mothers and fathers.

Of course, among them, a dozen or so had been completely eroded, reduced to puppets, showing no fear of the poison bee stings, with gray pupils, faces twisted with rage, charging at them.

At the same time, the skin on their bodies began to swell and turn translucent.

The experienced ones knew at a glance what tricks they were trying to pull.

"Hmph!"

Sha Lifei snorted coldly, repeatedly pulling the trigger.

Bang bang bang!

Amidst the bursts of flaming roars, those rushing over were blasted into bloody mist, with clouds of silk bursting out from within them, slowly writhing as they hit the ground.

As the smoke dispersed, no one else was left standing around.

Aside from those completely parasitized, the remaining ones rolled on the ground, screaming in agony.

In the distance, the limping old man in the ancestral hall hastily pulled his head back.

"I’ll go catch that old coot!"

Kuai Dayou shouted, and ran off with Fatty Lin and Kong Shangzhao.

As for Li Yan, he turned to look at Captain Zhou, who was dragged out, and said coldly:

"Speak, how did Tian Qianhu die?"

"Just kill me!"

Captain Zhou was full of rage, "You court dogs will die a miserable death!"

After hearing this, everyone’s expressions were a bit strange. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

As if they were the bad guys in this situation...
