Chapter 340.
After subduing Chen Hu, Wang Dust came back to settle the matter of the rescued villagers.
As the saying goes, the night is long and dreamy, Wang Dust could not possibly escort these people down the mountain, so he gave them two choices.
Either they ganged up on their own and went home, or they could join him in traveling to the mines where the bandits were entrenched.
These villagers who were captured by the bandits were not weak and unarmed, some of them were martial artists, some were in the Metamorphosis stage, and some possessed a low level cultivation of practicing qi.
The natives of the township are sure to have no problem finding their way back home by themselves.
In contrast, going to the mine with Wang Duan would be dangerous, so most people chose to leave in groups.
However, there were a few villagers who were willing to go with Wang Chen to the mine to kill the thieves.
Among them was Xu Laoshi.
“Lord Village Chief.”
He clenched his fists, “Even though I, Xu Laosi, am of low strength, I am willing to serve Your Excellency as a dog and horse!”
An impassioned speech that caused some of the villagers who wanted to leave to show shame in their eyes.
Wang Duan felt that this fellow was a bit interesting.
So he took Xu Laoshi and five other villagers, led by Chen Hu, to the mine.
For the sake of his own life, Chen Hu didn’t dare to play tricks, and took Wang Duan to take a secret passage that was the closest to the mine.
Not only that, he also told Wang Duan what he knew, one by one.
Chen Hu is a member of the Gray Wolf Pirates, the Gray Wolf Pirates have been entrenched here for many years, with hundreds of bandits at their peak.
Later on, because he had offended a local powerhouse, he was killed by the other party who invited war cultivators to kill him, resulting in a great loss of vitality.
The current Gray Wolf Bandits had a total of three leaders, and apart from the Big Leader who was guarding the mine, the Second Leader and the Third Leader had both been killed by Wang Dust just now.
“I’m worried that the Big Boss has gotten the news by now ……”
Chen Hu, who had placed all of his family’s lives on Wang Dust, had completely abandoned righteousness and was actively planning for Wang Dust: “My lord, he’s a Qi Practicing Perfection Cultivator, and he’s carrying several magical weapons on his body, so you have to beware of his backstabbing.”
This fellow even told Wang Duan all about the best spells of the Big Dangzhi, as well as the characteristics of several magic weapons!
In fact, Chen Hu was very clear that with Wang Dust’s cultivation strength, he could casually crush the Big Boss, the two sides were not at the same level of realm, and this kind of gap couldn’t be erased by plotting and scheming.
The previous Second and Third Bosses had already proved this with their lives.
He was only saying this to save himself some life saving points.
The group traveled at a brisk pace, exiting the secret passage and going over a mountain, then through a dense forest.
A small valley surrounded by green trees appeared ahead.
At a glance, Wang Dust saw the sentry tower built in the woods, with a sentry guard standing on top, looking well guarded.
Chen Hu said, “My lord, that’s the Purple Copper Mine there!”
While saying that, he looked at Wang Dust with pitiful eyes, obviously hoping that the latter would keep his promise.
Wang Dust nodded, “You go.”
He certainly kept his word.
Chen Hu was instantly overjoyed, “Many thanks, my lord!”
The bandit turned around and was about to leave, and his feet had only just taken a step when a pair of fists heavily bombarded his back.
Bang!
Chen Hu instantly flew forward a dozen paces away, blood spurting wildly from his mouth as he spat out pieces of his internal organs.
He landed heavily on the ground and struggled to turn around, “You, you promised ……”
“My lord promised to let you go, but it’s me who’s killing you now!”
The person who sneak attacked Chen Hu was none other than Xu Laosi, he laughed strangely, “What does it have to do with the adults?”
Xu Laosi had a cultivation of the second level of Qi cultivation, and also practiced martial arts, dealing with Chen Hu who had his dantian blocked was naturally a handful, and one strike would kill the latter.
With a strong unwillingness, Chen Hu swallowed his last breath.
“Bah!”
Xu Laoshi was also very unwilling, “Cheap for you.”
According to his thoughts, killing these bandits by a thousand cuts would truly relieve his anger.
Wang Chen glanced at him.
Xu Laosi was instantly silenced and respectfully lowered his head, not daring to take a breath.
“Well done.”
Wang Dust smiled and said, “The storage bag on him is yours.”
Xu Laoshi was overjoyed, “Many thanks, my lord!”
He originally had a storage pouch, which was snatched away by the Gray Wolf Thief’s people, and although there was nothing inside, the storage pouch itself was considered a magic weapon, and the loss was quite large.
Now it was made up for once!
“All of you stay here and don’t run around.”
Wang Dust commanded, “Hide yourselves and wait for my order.”
The few villagers who followed without fail answered yes.
Wang Dust stopped talking nonsense and immediately urged his mana to rise up in the air and swept towards the valley in front of him.
Since Wang Dust didn’t cover himself at all, he was immediately spotted by the Gray Wolf Bandit sentry guard standing on the sentry tower.
Without waiting for the bandit to raise the alarm, a fire crow swooped down in the air.
Boom!
Accompanied by a violent explosion, countless flames splashed across the sky.
The destroyed sentry tower collapsed.
The sentry guard on top naturally had no bones left, but he also used his life to tell his accomplices in the valley.
The Furies had come!
Wang Dust’s air-skimming technique had long been cultivated to the grand achievement realm, his speed was faster than a stringed arrow, and in an instant, he arrived right above the valley, and at a glance, he saw the mine field that had opened up inside.
The scale of the mine was not large, a circle of houses was built around the mine hole opened out on the mountain wall, and the side was piled up with discarded ores.
Wang Chen’s sudden appearance caused the bandits in the mine to fall into a panic.
Some of them fled towards the mountains and forests, some took out their heavy crossbows and aimed them at Wang Dust in the air to wind them up, and some of them prepared to cast spells with their hands, and one of them, a burly cultivator, offered a copper hammer artifact.
Wang Chuan guessed that he was the big boss of the Gray Wolf Pirates!
This magic weapon is long into the wind, whistling and smashing towards Wang dust, glittering with golden light, quite a bit of power.
But the owner of the magic weapon turned his head and ran away, and slapped several magic talismans on his body.
Those who were able to fly in the air without the aid of a magic weapon were at least at the Purple Mansion cultivation level, and were simply not opponents that he could match.
The only reason he shot out the talisman was just to be able to interfere with Wang Dust, so that he could fight for his own chance of survival.
Just this Gray Wolf Pirate Grand Master’s reaction was certainly fine, but he still underestimated Wang Dust’s means.
Facing the flying copper hammer, Wang Chuan stabbed out a finger in the air.
A reddish-golden aura instantly shot out and accurately struck this high-grade magic weapon.
The surface of the copper hammer immediately exploded with golden light, flying around like a headless fly.
In the next moment, Wang Chen waved out his robe sleeve.
The Wind and Thunder Sword came out!
The spirit sword swooped down like lightning, catching up with the fleeing Gray Wolf Pirate Big Leader in the blink of an eye, penetrating his body armor without any stagnation, and nailing him alive on the ground.
Immediately afterward, a rain of fire descended from the sky, covering the entire mine, causing dozens of bandits to fall into a sea of fire at the same time.
Screams and wails rose and fell, just like it had become a hell on earth!
