The exhaustion from staying up all night, the excitement of career advancement, the raging fury over the death of the plump lady, the surprise of the monster siege, all these emotions converged in his mind at that moment, leaving him momentarily in a state of shock, until a Demon Clan member came swinging a serrated scimitar at him, and Xiao Buli instinctively snapped back to reality.
A few sword strokes took care of the enemy before him, and it was unclear how much extra damage the Sunfire Sword Qi added to the weapon, but it was frighteningly high. Each slash could inflict nearly a hundred points of damage. Most of these Demon Clan members were just demonized humans and weren’t particularly formidable—killing them was really as easy as chopping vegetables.
He cut down over a dozen monsters in one breath and then looked around bewilderedly. Everywhere was a mingling of darkness and flames, and Xiao Buli felt somewhat dazzled. He put on the Betrayer’s Dark Vision, and immediately the world became clear before him. Black, pulsating shadows were toppling over white ones.
Those white shadows must be humans, and the black ones, of course, were from the Demon Clan.
After a brief discernment, he headed toward the area where the dark aura was thickest.
By this time, the town’s defensive wall had been utterly breached. Thousand Pines Town originally had some militiamen and a small number of soldiers from the Golden Dragon Legion to help defend, but their defensive capabilities were not very strong. The area was large, and now it had been completely overrun.
Demon Clan members were killing and setting fires everywhere, people were crying and roaring, some were fighting to their last breath, others were fleeing in all directions.
Xiao Buli was reveling in the slaughter when he suddenly ran into a group of NPC soldiers, "Run, run! The Demon Clan has invaded!" an officer shouted in terror.
"Run for what? Killing so many monsters is great for gaining experience!" He didn’t care if those soldiers understood or not; he just kept heading toward the place teeming with monsters. Seeing him, some of the soldiers seemed to hesitate. A few courageous ones wanted to join him, but even more wanted to flee.
A group of seven or eight members of the Demon Clan suddenly blocked Xiao Buli’s path. Unlike those demonized humans, these were bona fide members of the Demon Clan.
Xiao Buli was unceremonious, slashing away with several Mysterious Ice Slashes. He froze a few, ripped a few apart, then swung his red sword, heated by the Sunfire Sword Qi, into the fray. The red sword, imbued with Sunfire Sword Qi, sliced through the Demon Clan members frozen into ice, as effortlessly as a hot knife through butter.
In an instant, limbs flew, and blood spattered everywhere, prompting the surrounding Demon Clan to abandon their pursuit of the fleeing soldiers and converge on him en masse.

Suddenly, Xiao Buli found himself surrounded by a horde of Demon Clan members, with various weapons forged from Demon Iron chopping at him from all directions.
Chaotic Shadow Split! His figure flickered, transforming into several shadows that darted about, leading those who were trying to beat him to wildly swing their weapons, but each strike met with air—none were real. His true body had already entered the state of Fleeting Light and Shadow, invisible, and had circled to the rear of the mob, taking them with a Wind Rolls The Scattered Clouds......
A moment later, Xiao Buli stood on the main street surrounded by the corpses of the Demon Clan. Both Hearts of Mysteries had been used up, but that was okay, he still had plenty of True Origin Points left.
The soldiers looked on in amazement as Xiao Buli had killed a group of Demon Clan by himself. They immediately showed looks of admiration and, shouting, clustered around him.
Looking at the eyes of these soldiers, Xiao Buli felt as if a fire was burning in his heart. "Follow me and break out!" Xiao Buli shouted. The NPC soldiers immediately responded en masse, raising their weapons and shouting with all their might, as they followed Xiao Buli to fight their way out of the town.
Perhaps thinking that the humans had no decent defenses left, the members of the Demon Clan attacking the town were mostly in disorganized groups of three to five, running rampant everywhere. With Xiao Buli leading the charge, they quickly carved a bloody path forward and more and more scattered soldiers and townspeople joined their ranks.
These people had a certain degree of combat capability, and Xiao Buli just focused on clearing the way forward. When he turned around at the town gate, he was surprised to find that he was followed by hundreds of people.
At the town gate, he unexpectedly discovered several players besieging a Demon Clan BOSS, and it was the members of the Iron Blood Brotherhood.
The Demon Clan BOSS looked like a military general, clad in Demon Iron armor and wielding a spear eight feet long. Although the weapon was quite long, the BOSS’s three-meter-tall stature meant he could wield it effortlessly. The members of the Iron Blood Brotherhood seemed strong but were only barely managing a stalemate with the BOSS and were slowly being overpowered.
Leading the charge against the BOSS were a female warrior named Cao Shuai, and the burly strong man who had a misunderstanding with Xiao Buli earlier that day. A mage, running out from the circle to restore Mana, saw Xiao Buli and urgently shouted, "Quick, help us out!
No one can escape unless we kill this BOSS." The one shouting was a fellow named Yang Mushi, dressed in a robe and holding a Magic Wand, clearly a member of the magic system class.
Xiao Buli glanced towards the direction of the barracks, where fire soared into the sky; the entire barracks were surrounded by dense masses of the Demon Clan. The Abyssal Flame Demon Lord was wreaking havoc inside, half of his body visible above the palisade wall, which had become a sea of flames.
It seemed that the barracks drew the majority of the monsters, which was why Thousand Pines Town was holding on until now. If those demons broke through, there would be no chance of survival here.
He then eyed the BOSS before him. This BOSS’s defense was clearly monstrous; the Iron Blood Brotherhood had been fighting for who knows how long and only managed to reduce his health points by one third. There were still many members of the Demon Clan around, some War Pets summoned by the Iron Blood Brotherhood were stalling them. After a quick assessment, Xiao Buli decided to help out.
Although he could escape on his own without an issue, if this BOSS wasn’t dealt with, many townspeople would undoubtedly be killed or injured.
For some reason, those previously insignificant NPCs now seemed to bear a presence in his eyes that made it difficult for him to abandon them so easily.
Xiao Buli moved behind the BOSS without a word and unleashed a Mysterious Ice Slash!
A crescent of Deep Cold Sword Qi shot towards the enemy. The Demon Clan BOSS, distracted by the two warriors in front, didn’t notice the attack from the rear, and the Sword Qi easily cut through his armor, injecting the Power of Mysterious Ice into his body, instantly freezing a portion of his back with ice.
Burst Talisman! With a loud bang, the ice on the BOSS’s back burst open, stripping away hundreds of health points and eliciting a painful howl from the BOSS. Enjoy new adventures from freewebnovel
With eyes filled with rage, the BOSS turned around, "Vermin—die!" Xiao Buli, however, activated Fleeting Light and Shadow, disappearing from the opponent’s sight. (To be continued.
