After the Skyfall

Chapter 369 Their respective battles

Before Li Yi got close to Shoushan Village, he was discovered by the villagers' soldiers. As the alarm bell rang, all the soldiers, big and small, in Shoushan Village gathered together to prepare to meet the enemy. At the same time, all the women, girls and children gathered under the big tree in the middle of the village to avoid the disaster.

Such a big commotion made Li Yi a little confused.

I was once a defeated opponent by his men, and now that he has returned, the other party should not be aware of my sudden change in strength, so why is he preparing for it with such vigilance?

Besides, I am alone and weak, is it necessary for the whole village to deal with me?

"No matter what, we are here now. We have to rescue Jiang Mingtian and the others today."

Li Yi said in his heart, and then he continued to move forward on the Niu Niu, and at the same time gave orders to the Thunder fighter, letting the main gun of the fighter start charging and be ready to fire at any time.

"It is indeed that evil stranger. He has come and brought two strange beasts with him. One is Shanyi and the other is the father beast. These two strange beasts are still in their infancy and are not very strong. There is no need to worry. On the contrary, this evil stranger seems to have changed a lot compared to a while ago."

At the entrance of the village, a giant man nearly three meters tall stood motionless with a big knife in his hand, protecting Shoushan Village like a door god.

The high priest named Maisui had a gloomy face and a bad look. "The enemy came with hatred. Jujiao, we can't let him go today. We have lost three young warriors and two more are seriously injured. If this matter cannot be resolved, Shoushan Village will never have a peaceful day."

"Of course, I will not show mercy like last time. For the enemy who has stained the blood of my people, I, Jujiao, will definitely chop off his head."

Jujiao grinned, revealing his sharp white teeth, like a man-eating beast, his tall body exuding a violent aura.

When Li Yi rode Niu Niu to the entrance of the village, immediately, a dozen strong men in leather armor, holding swords, axes and bows, surrounded him.

Then Jujiao pulled out the big knife standing on the ground and walked over quickly with big strides: "Evil outsider, I didn't expect you to dare to show up in Shoushan Village. I used to respect you as a warrior and defeated Chongchi, but you are like a hungry wolf that can't be tamed. You killed the children of our Shoushan Village and attacked our high priest. Today, I will take revenge on you no matter what."

"Boss, kill him, kill this evil foreigner, and avenge Zhu Huan and his men."

"Yes, cut off his head and make it into a drinking vessel."

"I'm going to pull out his bones and use them to pound shit."

The soldiers from the nearby mountain guarding village were all furious and indignant. They regarded Li Yi as a devil and a murderer and wished to skin him alive.

Li Yi frowned as he listened. "Jujiao, if you want to do something, just come directly. Why do you want to defame someone? Am I evil? You people in Shoushan Village are truly born evil. My companions and I came out to take risks, but you took the initiative to attack us, destroyed our weapons and equipment, severely injured us, captured us, and looted our armor and weapons."

"You bunch of barbaric bandits, you still dare to say that to me?"

"I wanted to chop off your head with a knife, but after you said that, I, Jujiao, feel very dissatisfied."

Jujiao stared at Li Yi, not planning to take action immediately. "I know very well that a village that casually makes enemies will not be able to prosper forever. You outsiders don't know the taboos here. You offended the valley where the gods sleep. We in Shoushan Village can ignore it, but you killed Zhuhuan, Tiezu, and Lieshi, three of us, and this is a blood debt that cannot be erased. How can you quibble?"

"That was a fight between warriors. Isn't death normal? This is the rule of your Shoushan Village. And it was that naughty kid named Zhuhuan who took the initiative to challenge me. If you don't believe it, you can go ask a woman named Shanguo." Li Yi said.

Jujiao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he shouted angrily: "Shanguo? Is this the case?"

Soon, the woman named Shanguo ran out from the village behind her. She was in a very bad condition and had not recovered from her injuries. When she heard the leader's question, she could only bite the bullet and say, "Yes, it's like this. Zhu Huan and his men did challenge this evil outsider."

Jujiao was silent for a moment.

Not only did he fall silent, but even the warriors who had previously shouted for revenge for Zhu Huan and others suddenly shut up.

If it was a battle between warriors, there was nothing to say about being killed, just like how Chongchi was defeated before.

Li Yi sneered again: "As for the attack on your high priest? It seems that it was the high priest of your village who attacked me first. I just took back what belonged to me."

Jujiao fell silent again, then glanced at the high priest.

The high priest said in a deep voice: "Right or wrong is not important at the moment. For the sake of the village, this outsider must die. Don't forget that we have sold his accomplices as slaves. The seeds of grudge have been planted. Only when the other party dies completely can we survive this crisis. Fortunately, he came alone this time. If he came with a group of evil prisoners, Shoushan Village would be finished."

He didn't know from which captive he got some information about the prisoners.

After hearing this, the silent giant's eyes suddenly became firm, and then he stared at Li Yi: "The high priest is right, I can't let you leave today no matter what. In order to protect the mountain village, I must kill you."

"I didn't expect that my companions were actually sold as slaves by you?" Li Yi's eyes instantly turned cold. "I was originally thinking about whether I could negotiate and trade with you to let you release my companions. Now it seems that there is no need for that. Let's decide right and wrong by fighting."

"If I die, naturally no one will seek revenge on you. But if you lose, the entire Shoushan Village may be destroyed. Can you afford such a price?"

"I have defeated you easily before. I know your strength and you are not my opponent." Jujiao tightly grasped the broadsword with a strong murderous intent.

Li Yi said: "There are many ways to win or lose. Just like you suddenly attacked us, I came here and I am sure I will win."

However, just as he finished speaking, a big man suddenly stomped on the ground, making a loud noise, and rushed over, accompanied by a series of shaking sounds of bone tooth necklaces. The warrior named Chongchi had recovered from his injuries at this moment, and he roared and punched forward, his punch was still as swift and powerful as before.

"Today I will avenge my previous humiliation."

He was not convinced after his last defeat, and a shadow was cast over his heart. If he wanted to break this shadow, he had to defeat Li Yi head-on again.

Faced with the attack from the soldiers guarding the mountain village, the strange beast under Li Yi's seat immediately roared, wanting to fight with them.

However, Li Yi himself took action first. His entire arm suddenly flashed with silver light, and the light condensed and intertwined into a silver blade that seemed real. He then swung his hand and slashed out in an instant.

The silver blade light arrived in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Jujiao's face suddenly changed: "Zhongchi, be careful."

But it was too late.

The silver blade's sharpness is no longer what it used to be. Although his realm after awakening the divine bloodline is still the soul realm, his strength has undergone an astonishing transformation. At this moment, the sword energy is definitely not something that a flesh and blood body can contend with.

The blade flew past.

Blood splattered everywhere. The strong Zhongchi was split in half, and then his tall body suddenly fell to the ground. He opened his eyes wide and clenched his fists to wave, but it was no use. He could only swallow his breath unwillingly.

This sudden scene shocked everyone.

"Zhongchi is dead?"

It was unimaginable that one of the most powerful warriors in Shoushan Village was killed so easily by an evil outsider.

Before, he could fight with the opponent to a draw.

Why did such a big change happen in just over ten days?

Li Yi's change was difficult for the other soldiers in Shoushan Village to understand.

"You couldn't beat me last time and your mind was suppressed by my fist. How dare you come here to seek death." At this moment Li Yi's face was indifferent. He was not surprised at this result. In his opinion, the only one in Shoushan Village who was qualified to fight with him was Jujiao.

Although the high priest posed a certain threat, he had already seen last time that the high priest only knew magic and was not physically strong, so the threat was very limited.

"Revenge for Chongchi."

However, Chongchi's death did not frighten the other warriors. Instead, it completely aroused their bloodiness and hatred, and they roared and attacked one after another.

Some people pulled the bows in their hands and shot at Li Yi, while others raised their axes and chopped him down. They were all extremely brave and full of momentum.

"In a life-and-death struggle, everyone must accept their fate."

Li Yi let out a long roar and leaped forward to kill. His whole body was glowing with silver light, burning like a flame. With the condensed energy of a hundred refinements, he seemed to be wearing an indestructible silver armor, and was able to withstand the attacks of bows and arrows without any injuries. With every move he made, the silver energy rushed out to kill.

Seeing this, Jujiao did not dare to be careless. He roared and attacked with a big knife in his hand. The ancient big knife chopped and shook off several silver auras, saving the lives of several soldiers guarding the mountain village. Then his body nearly three meters tall came out of nowhere.

The big knife swung with great force and came straight towards Li Yi's head.

But this time, Li Yi reacted.

His silver vertical pupils glowed, and he saw the opponent's attack clearly.

Without any hesitation, Li Yi casually grasped the silver sword energy and turned it into a precious sword. He heard the blade whistling, like a gust of wind sweeping forward, and also attacked.

The sound of metal clashing echoed.

next moment.

The silver blade in Li Yi's hand suddenly shattered, and then the remaining power of the blade chopped down on his shoulder, cracking the silver armor on his body. Li Yi's body also sank more than half a meter due to the huge force, causing his body to go numb.

"What a brute force." However, Li Yi raised his head and smiled wildly: "But, your knife is not as sharp as before. You can't kill me."

Relying on the awakened divine bloodline, he withstood the opponent's full-strength attack.

This scene made Jujiao stunned. He began to doubt whether his strength had declined. The person who could be easily knocked away by a punch before had now grown to this level.

But Jujiao's rich combat experience allowed him to react quickly, then he drew his sword, turned around, and prepared to attack again.

However, Li Yi suddenly grabbed the heavy sword with one hand. Silver light condensed and was extremely dazzling. A divine power surged out of his body and tightly grasped the sword that was about to be pulled out. Then he suddenly threw another punch.

The silver fists intertwined as quickly as lightning.

The awakened divine bloodline allowed Li Yi to burst out with unimaginable punching power at this moment.

"Not good." Jujiao's face suddenly changed and he raised his arms to resist.

boom!
Thunder roared, gusts of air swept across the sky, and silver light spread out in all directions like ripples.

The incredibly powerful force actually pushed the three-meter-tall giant Jujiao back half a meter, and left a clearly visible fist mark on his arm. The fist mark was stained with blood, breaking the strong physique that the opponent was proud of.

Pain came from the arm.

Jujiao felt the power of that punch. Although it was unbelievable, it was undeniable that the enemy in front of him was almost grown to his level.

But the more this is the case, the more we cannot let this enemy leave here.

Jujiao roared, clenched the knife with both hands, his muscles bulged, and a terrifying force was released. He pushed Li Yi down another half a meter and tried to chop off half of Li Yi's arm.

Li Yi felt pain in his shoulder. His silver armor completely shattered, his flesh was cut open, and while blood was flowing out, his silver bones were also exposed. These bones were indestructible and blocked the opponent's sword.

Seeing the silver skeleton, Jujiao was shocked. The divine power that burst out from his huge body suddenly dissipated, and there was a look of disbelief on his face.

Not only him, but also the high priest Mai Sui, who was waving the emerald green staff in his hand and preparing to cast a spell, opened his eyes wide with horror when he saw Li Yi's silver bones.

But the fight did not stop because of the changes in the two people.

At this moment, the strange beast Niu Niu also roared and rushed out. In just one encounter, it knocked away a soldier guarding the mountain village. The soldier flew out like a cannonball, smashed the ground, sank into the mud, and was motionless in the blink of an eye.

This strange beast also has extraordinary power. After eating the silver strange fruit, its muscles and bones became strong and its strength became even greater. It is not something that an ordinary warrior can defeat.

The cry of Shanyi echoed in the sky. The strange beast pounced on the warrior as fast as lightning and knocked him to the ground in an instant. Although the warrior roared and prepared to fight back, Shanyi's huge beak was intertwined with silver light and pecked at him in an instant. The warrior's head exploded immediately and blood splattered all over the ground.

But then an axe with violent force tried to chop off Shanyi's head.

However, Shan Yi flashed his wings, leaving a shadow, and moved in the air to avoid the attack of the axe and pounced on the second soldier guarding the mountain village.
