Chapter 112: Land of Chaos, Dugu Fengwu?

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

100 kilometers north of Cloud Heaven City was the Land of Chaos, and throughout the whole 1500 kilometers of this Land of Chaos, it was a neutral zone that separated the Heaven Dao Union and the Evil Dao. There were plenty of neutral zones like this, but the Land of Chaos was one of the bigger ones.

The Land of Chaos didn’t belong to any of the influential forces, and there were no laws there. No one would bother about murders or robberies, and everything was negotiated with weapon in hand. Blood would flow every day, and innocent lives would be lost every day.

In comparison, be it the Cloud Heaven City’s territories or the Northwest Qin Clan’s territories, the peace and serenity could be considered a paradise. Hence, those martial artists with inferior cultivation would basically only venture into the territories of those famous sects. Even though they had to pay taxes and might not have too much freedom, at least they didn’t have to be concerned about losing their lives.

…

By the next afternoon, Yang Dingtian had traveled more than a hundred kilometers and was at the castle that was on the northeast border of Cloud Heaven City. Of course, it was much smaller compared to the Black Blood Castle. It was even smaller than Abyss Castle and only housed fewer than two hundred warriors.

As soon as one walked out of this stone door, they would lose the protection of order and would enter the barbaric environment where the weak were prey for the strong.

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and rode out, galloping towards the northwest. The reason why he rode a horse instead of an aerial beast was because aerial beasts were only allowed to fly within the Cloud Heaven City’s territories. Once out of the territories, it would be immediately shot down.

The current Yang Dingtian was wearing a human skin mask, which turned him into an ordinary youth that looked a little delicate. Even his weapon was decorated, and the clothes he was wearing were obviously valuable. Coupled with the fact that he had ten Great Mystic Martial Master class Black Blood Cavalry experts with him, none of the influential forces in the Land of Chaos would want to provoke them.

After galloping more than an hour, Yang Dingtian had traveled another fifty kilometers, and the color of the soil was slowly turning from blood red to a pale-red color.

This zone was indeed an unregulated area as Yang Dingtian had witnessed more than a dozen brawls, and more than half of those had casualties. In just over an hour, there were more than a dozen lives that had been taken, but those travelers would pretend that they didn’t see anything. This Land of Chaos was truly a lawless place, filled with chaos and danger.

Of course, Yang Dingtian didn’t go meddling in those fights as they were all brawls and were hard to determine who was in the wrong. Basically, none of the participants were good people. Furthermore, time was pressing, and he didn’t have any to spare for such matters.

…

Right ahead was a river that was thirty meters in width, and there was a wooden bridge that was constructed above it.

“Those who want to cross the bridge shall pay one silver coin. If there is a mount, it will be two additional coins,” Several fierce and vicious brutes were on the bridge and were using their weapons to extort tolls from the travelers.

It was apparent that this bridge wasn’t built by them, and they were just taking the opportunity to rake in the money.

A guard beside Yang Dingtian immediately drew his sword and wanted to kill all these people. After all, with their current strength, it would be easy to kill all of them.

Yang Dingtian gestured to stop and immediately threw over a gold coin but with eyes that revealed a glow of warning. It warned them that if they asked for anything more, Yang Dingtian wouldn’t mind slaughtering them.

These hoodlums naturally didn’t dare to have any other vicious ideas.

Yang Dingtian led the ten Black Blood Cavalry brothers and immediately rushed across the bridge.

But there was something that made him let out a bitter laugh. After crossing the bridge, there was another gang set up on the other end of the bridge.

“Those who want to cross the bridge shall pay one silver coin. If there is a mount, it will be two additional coins.” The leader of the hoodlums was waving the iron sword in his hand, but this time, it was a wretched and slim-looking youth.

This was too rampant, actually asking for a toll twice on a wooden bridge that was only a hundred feet long. Honestly speaking, it would only take slightly more than a dozen silver coins to construct this wooden bridge…

Yang Dingtian frowned and threw another gold coin over.

But this time, the wretched youth’s eyes lit up, and he thought that he had encountered a cowardly cash cow. A single gold coin was equivalent to a hundred silver coins.

“Aiya, I got it wrong. The toll is one gold coin per person. If there is a mount, then it will be two additional gold coins.” The wretched youth let out a treacherous smile while revealing an ominous glint in his eyes. It was obvious that he was planning to murder and loot them.

“You brought about your own demise.” Yang Dingtian’s eyes immediately turned cold as he immediately drew his sharp sword and slashed at the treacherous youth.

“You dare? I am a member of the Crocodile Gang… Ahhh…”

Before he could finish his sentence, fresh blood splattered everywhere as the wretched youth’s head was cut off immediately, shocking the surround hoodlums.

Before Yang Dingtian gave the orders, the ten Black Blood Cavalry experts split into two groups and wiped out all of the hoodlums on both ends of the bridge.

After they finished killing them, Yang Dingtian led the ten Black Blood Cavalry experts and left quickly. Of course, no one would come and get involved.

…

Afterwards, Yang Dingtian galloped on his horse until dusk, traveling another 200 kilometers.

In just a short 150 kilometers, Yang Dingtian handed over eight toll fees and was extorted four times while there were four groups that plotted to murder them for money. Yang Dingtian didn’t wish for such a thing to happen, but he still killed three of those groups.

He finally understood something. In this Land of Chaos, unless your martial arts was at the peak, you had to kill no matter what. If you didn’t kill, then you would be killed.

From noon till nightfall, they had traveled a total of 350 kilometers. This speed might already be fast, but it was still not enough.

Hence, they didn’t have the luxury to rest at night and had to carry on making haste.

There was a town ahead called Black Wind Town. It wasn’t huge, but it still had a small auction house, a few taverns, a few restaurants, two or three transportation groups, and two brothels. All these were sufficient for those martial artists that stopped by for a short rest.

Yang Dingtian just wanted rest for a short moment, have a meal, and change his horse before resuming their travel.

They entered one of the restaurants, which was packed with people. Yang Dingtian and the ten brothers found a secluded table and had some regular dishes along with a few bottles of strong wine. The food wasn’t nice, but at least it wasn’t poisoned.

There were plenty of mixed people who spoke in various languages. Some were shouting out while some were playing drinking games. In short, the entire hall was filled with noise, and it was unknown when was the last time these people had taken a shower. There was this unpleasant odor that pervaded the air.

“Did you hear about it? The trash, Yang Dingtian from Cloud Heaven City, is incredible now,” Suddenly, there was this individual who was seated opposite Yang Dingtian who spoke loudly.

“That mad man? The twenty-year-old Initiate who practiced the Pig Slaying Sword Art?” one of the men at the side inquired.

“Your information is outdated. He isn’t an initiate anymore and is now at the Mystic Martial Artist class.” That person then said, “Just two days ago, he publicly fought against Cloud Heaven City’s Tang Li and simply won. Incredible right? He has experienced a reversal of fortune.”

At this moment, a one-eyed man snorted disdainfully and said, “What do you all know? Did you think that Yang Dingtian broke through to the Mystic Martial Artist class relying on his talents? Relying on proper methods to break through over ten classes in five days? In your dreams! Do you know what he relied on to break through?”

In this instant, Yang Dingtian’s ears pricked up while the ten brothers from the Black Blood Cavalry also started listening. Some of them even placed their hands on their weapons hung at their waists.

“He relied on the evil Yin Yang Devour Mystic Ritual. He relied on sleeping with women. Harvesting the yin to nourish his yang, devouring woman’s mystic qi to break through,” that one-eyed man said in a depraved tone.

In this instant, Yang Dingtian was truly furious. He didn’t expect this rumor to travel so quickly, taking just a few days to arrive at the Land of Chaos. It was needless to say that this was Qin Shaobai’s intention and this one-eyed man was one of the rumormongers that accepted money from him.

“Do you guys know which woman’s mystic qi he harvested?” the one-eyed man asked.

“Who?” Everyone looked with glittering eyes.

“Madam Ximen…,” the one-eyed man said viciously.

Everyone suddenly took a deep gasp and said, “Damn it. Madam Ximen was the no.1 beauty in the Northwest Continent back in the days. This Yang Dingtian sure has the luck with women. This is truly seduction of mother and daughter.”

In this instant, the Black Blood Cavalry brothers’ eyes all turned cold and they wanted to start killing as soon as they drew their weapons.

Yang Dingtian used his eyes to stop them. There were too many rumormongers like this, and there was no way to kill all of them. He just had to wait for eight days. After he defeated Qin Shaobai, this rumor would be discredited. Madam Ximen would then have her innocence validated.

Afterwards, Yang Dingtian just concentrated on eating and didn’t bother about all those rumors since they were all baseless words.

Right at this moment, the noises in the restaurant suddenly turned into silence.

The sudden silence could allow the sound of a pin drop to be heard. Not only did everyone stop talking, but they even stopped eating.

“Clang clang clang…”

Immediately after, the sound of bowls and chopsticks dropping on the ground could be heard. It seemed like someone actually lost grip of his bowl and chopsticks due to shock.

Yang Dingtian involuntarily lifted his head and took a glance. He saw that everyone was looking in the same direction.

Yang Dingtian followed these eyes and looked over.

In an instant, all the hair on his body stood on end while the pores in his body all contracted as a cold sweat burst out.

It was a woman who entered. She was wearing a veil and a black skin-tight dress.

From top to bottom, only her eyes were exposed as even her hands were wearing black gloves.

These eyes captivated the soul. They were extremely beautiful and seductive.

Once this pair of eyes looked up, it felt as though souls were immediately drawn out of the observers.

Her figure was filled with a magical charm. She had perky breasts and a butt that undulated like a mountain range, the epitome of devilish curves.

It took just a pair of eyes and the devilish figure for all the men in the restaurant to lose their souls as they couldn’t even hold onto their bowls and chopsticks.

It was only Yang Dingtian whose heart was racing violently as his body instantly turned icy-cold.

Because he had seen this woman before!

Dugu Fengwu, that Dugu Fengwu who regarded human lives like weeds. The Evil Dao’s demon woman, the great devil Dugu Xiao’s daughter.

He didn’t expect her to actually appear here.

Yang Dingtian quickly lowered his head to eat and drink, hoping in his heart that she wouldn’t recognize his disguised appearance.

After all, she did say that if she met him again, she would tear him into pieces. Whatever this demon woman said, he didn’t dare to doubt it.

However, things didn’t turn out as he wanted. Yang Dingtian hoped that she wouldn’t notice him, but that demon woman’s attention just had to focus on him.

Dugu Fengwu’s captivating eyes actually looked over at Yang Dingtian’s face immediately as she gazed intently at his face.

In this instant, Yang Dingtian felt as though he was about to be suffocated.

This demon woman was someone who would kill without even batting the eye. If she truly recognized him, she would certainly slash at him right away.

“God damn it, I, your father, have lived for more than half my years and have never seen such a woman. If I can do her even once, I can die without regrets,” At this moment, that one-eyed rumormonger was speaking while gasping for air.

Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but look at him with eyes that were looking at a moron.

He was simply tired of living to actually profane this demon woman. He must be afraid that he couldn’t die fast enough.

As expected, that demon woman’s eyes turned away from Yang Dingtian and immediately looked over at that one-eyed man.

Yang Dingtian felt relief in his heart. He was waiting for the demon woman to start her slaughter and hoped he wouldn’t get involved in it.

But what made Yang Dingtian surprised was that this demon woman actually just nodded her head and frowned before saying, “I want to take the best private room.”

“Sure, sure, this way upstairs…” The waiter in the restaurant didn’t even have to consider and quickly led the way.

Afterwards, the demon woman immediately followed along.

Yang Dingtian let out a breath of relief while the other men were letting out heavy and erratic breaths with eyes filled with burning lust. Because when the demon woman was walking upstairs, her extremely enchanting and seductive butt curves were enough to light up any man’s desire.

“I cannot take it anymore. I have to do her today. I must do her!” That one-eyed man gasped while speaking, “Otherwise, I would have lived my life in vain. Even if I have to die immediately, I still have to do her.”

“This fool is dead for sure,” Yang Dingtian sneered in his heart.

“Let’s hurry up and eat. We will set off as soon as we finish,” Yang Dingtian said. With this demon woman in the restaurant, he didn’t want to stay for a second longer.

Because once this demon woman started killing, she wasn’t fond of killing one by one. Instead, she would kill in groups. Perhaps it was better to say that she was fond of wiping out everyone in her sights.

In a few minutes, Yang Dingtian and the ten brothers swiftly finished their food and departed on their horses. They were in such a hurry that they didn’t even have time to change their horses.

It was better to get as far away from where the demon woman was.

Yang Dingtian wouldn’t be surprised if that demon woman wiped out the entire town if she was infuriated.

…

After running for more than 50 kilometers, Yang Dingtian finally felt relief.

Right now, the steed that he was riding on was losing its stamina from fatigue. As soon as they arrived in the next town, they needed to change their horses immediately.

Due to the steeds losing their stamina, Yang Dingtian’s group had a much slower pace. Furthermore, there wasn’t another town in sight, so they couldn’t change their mounts.

“That demon woman wouldn’t be returning to the Temple of Blood right? Please don’t let that be true.” Yang Dingtian was praying in his heart.

If the demon woman was was in the Temple of Blood, let alone cultivating in the Blood Pool, Yang Dingtian wouldn’t be able to guarantee his own life.

During the night, the Land of Chaos was much more peaceful, or perhaps there were many more crimes, but they weren’t as prominent under the concealment of the darkness.

But along the way, they basically didn’t encounter anyone.

In the night, the galloping sounds that came from Yang Dingtian and his group were especially clear.

“Clatter, clatter, clatter…”

All of a sudden, Yang Dingtian could hear other galloping sounds from behind, and they were moving much faster than Yang Dingtian and his group.

He couldn’t help but turn around and couldn’t help but be terror-stricken.

Because it was actually that demon woman, Dugu Fengwu. She actually caught up.

Yang Dingtian instinctively reached for his sword but immediately stopped. Because the demon woman didn’t have any intention to draw her sword.

Dugu Fengwu was very fast and caught up to Yang Dingtian in the blink of the eye. Moreover, her captivating eyes were fixed on Yang Dingtian.

Did she manage to recognize him? If that was the case, he was certainly dead.

But immediately after, the demon woman, Dugu Fengwu said something that utterly surprised Yang Dingtian.

“Mister, save me. There is someone chasing after me, they want to rape me!” The demon woman, Dugu Fengwu’s beautiful eyes were in a panic, as her voice trembled while pleading to Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but exclaim with astonishment, “What kind of trick is this demon woman trying to pull!?”

Soon enough, he could see over a dozen men that were in frenzied pursuit. The one leading the group was the one-eyed rumormonger, and his only eye was gleaming with a lascivious and lustful glow.

“Beauty, don’t go! I will surely let you die while feeling in heaven!”

Right now, this woman was even more frightened as she pleaded towards Yang Dingtian. “Big brother, I beg you. Save me. Save me!”
