Chapter 672: Killing Tens of Thousands of Pirates with A Single Move
That old man in the blood-red attire had an extremely terrifying look in his eyes as he glared at that the Xu family’s pitch-black ancestral home.
Despite the place being pitch-black, he was still able to somehow make out all that was going on in that ancestral home. He wouldn’t have been able to do so otherwise had it not been for the vague moonlight being cast down from the night sky above.
Not even the barrier and formations put in place were capable of hiding anything from his sight.
However, there was one place that was completely blurred by chaos. No matter how hard he tried to look at it, he couldn’t see through the chaos. He began to wonder what was behind that barrier.
That must be the place!
That old man in blood-red attire was able to tell right away. Boundless howls and shouts played in his ears.
He ignored all those howls and shouts, as none of them mattered to him.
He kept his gaze on the patch of chaos.
“Soul-crusher Blood Claw!”
He then tore at that chaotic spot with his hand again. That massive bloody claw conjured from the attack increased in size as it came to shroud the entire place.
That one attack looked like it was capable of reducing the entirety of the Xu family’s ancestral home to nothing but ashes.
However, another blast of sword light then tore through the night sky, shining very brilliantly as it blasted onto that bloody claw.
While that blast from the sword shattered the bloody claw, another Soul-crusher Blood Claw was conjured again. To be more precise, it was already conjured fully beforehand. It was just that the next attack was hidden behind that previous attack. With the two attacks stacked together and acting as one, the attack could tear through the sky again and loom over the entire residence.
The many fighters from the Xu family acted right away. No matter how much they attacked, all of their efforts proved useless; their attacks couldn’t even break their own defenses.
Within a small compound of the Xu family’s ancestral home, a figure was seen waving his hand. Another beam of the sword blasted from his sleeve, lighting up the night sky and instantly shattering the incoming bloody claw.
By then, it seemed as if the shrouded figure had run out of patience. He leaped off of where he stood and immediately took to the sky. Only then was everyone able to clearly see that figure in white.
That man wore a bluish-white robe and looked extremely young. He looked incredibly dashing with his chiseled features and deep eyes.
The Great Ancestors of the families who were present at the moment had all seen countless people throughout their lives. They sang their praises right there and then, saying that the man truly was an exceptionally fine young man.
“That can’t be that old monster Lu, can it?”
As the Great Ancestor of one family recalled something, his face changed into a slightly shocked expression.
None of them realized that the old monster Lu, who had been of such renown as of late, was actually so young.
He looked way too young.
The man looked like he was in his teens. Even if he were much older, he would have still seemed like their grandsons. He was nowhere near the same level as they were.
Even so, such a young man like that old monster Lu that had become so renowned as of late.
“So you finally decided to show yourself.”
That old man in the blood-red attire glared at that young man in the bluish-white robe. The frighteningly powerful aura that the young man had around him enabled him to confirm that this man was definitely his target. That young man was definitely the mysterious person who blocked his attacks.
That was also the man who killed his disciple.
Ignoring the severe tension in the air on the battlefield, Lu Xuan smirked and said, “I thought of playing with you for a little while longer. I sure didn’t expect you to balk so quickly.”
One person then shouted, “Fire!”
Countless archers among the Blood Wolf Pirate targeted Lu Xuan. Tens of thousands of arrows were then fired at him from all directions.
There were so many arrows that they seemed to have formed a massive wall that came right before Lu Xuan within mere moments.
In the face of elite troops of such level and numbers, even the usual The Divine Transformation Realm fighters would have had to be wary. They would not dare to fight against anyone with such military prowess.
Fighting such a massive force head-on would’ve most likely led to the depletion of one’s Spiritual Aether.
However, they had apparently underestimated Lu Xuan.
As Lu Xuan gave a simple wave, a golden dragon instantly roared at the sky.
The dragon was conjured out of his Spiritual Aether, which was part of his Shield of Great Aether.
All of the arrows flying at him from all directions were deflected as soon as they touched the golden dragon.
Lu Xuan’s Shield of Great Aether was extremely frightening; his defense was nothing less than terrifying.
Everyone nearby had only heard the sounds of metals clashing. None of the countless arrows had been able to break that golden dragon’s defense.
Regardless of whatever kinds and variations of spells or runes were infused within the arrows, none of them could even scratch Lu Xuan, even though they were all spells of some kind when they touched him.
“That’s all you’ve got?”
Lu Xuan simply waved and took control of the countless arrows. His will was almost of unimaginable size.
Even the wills of those who were truly at the Divine Transformation Realm would not have enabled them to take control of so many arrows all at once. However, Lu Xuan managed to do so; his primordial spirit was more than several times larger than that of a typical Divine Transformation Realm expert.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
As massive rumbles rang out, everyone saw the arrows were sent flying back to where they came from. The arrows moved faster than before.
It was like a stone had kicked up massive waves from all directions, with the resulting waves spreading all over the place.
They were all moving at such a frighteningly fast rate.
Under Lu Xuan’s control, the arrows moved at unbelievably fast speeds and struck the original shooters within the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of Blood Wolf Pirates were all killed by the arrows that they shot mere moments ago.
All of those pirates then dropped from the sky right away like dumplings.
After so many pirates being killed almost all at once, the sky instantly became clearer.
There were only tens of thousands of elite troops among the Blood Wolf Pirate. However, more than half of them were quickly killed by either Lu Xuan or the traps that the Xu family had laid down for them.
The scene was extremely harrowing.
The old man’s eyes reddened so much that they looked as if they were about to bleed.
At that moment, he emitted a beast-like growl as he had completely turned himself into a beast.
More than half of the elite pirates of the Blood Wolf Pirates were now dead, alongside his meticulously fostered disciple, Xue Wushang. Half of what he built for most of his life was already destroyed, and the one who brought about such ruin was none other than that damned old monster Lu before him.
“You’re digging your own grave. I’m going to kill you!”
That old man immediately made his move, pouncing onto Lu Xuan like a bloodied wolf.
He knew very well that a fighter at Lu Xuan’s level behaved as if they didn’t fear the ambush that the Xu family had set up; the sheer number of members from the Blood Wolf Pirate meant nothing to Lu Xuan.
