Chapter 153: Who Told You I'm Running?

Under the rain of spears, one bandit after another fell, and clouds of blood bloomed in the air one after another . Xiang Shaoyun was on a completely different level from these bandits, and his movements were too fast for them to follow . Running toward him was no different than running to their deaths .

In the blink of an eye, about a dozen bodies were left on the ground, and their mounts had scattered in fear . Meanwhile, the alarm had been sounded in the Redwolf Bandit stronghold . With so many people killed instantly, it was impossible for them to not panic .

On the peak within the stronghold, a group of bandits gathered . These bandits were much stronger than the ordinary bandits . The other bandits also gathered in front of the stronghold, and before long, a few hundred of them were there .

As they braced for Xiang Shaoyun's approach, Xiang Shaoyun only gave them his middle finger and glowered at them with the most contemptuous face he could muster before leaving . He was certainly unable to do anything against so many bandits . His goal was still to lure some of them out so he could kill them off one at a time . That was the only way he could weaken the strength of the group as a whole before eventually eliminating the entire group .

"Tell me . What's going on?" the bandit leader questioned the sentry .

"Head, that kid killed almost 20 of us so far, including One-Eyed Dragon's group . He even claimed to have us surrounded," answered the fearful sentry .

"Idiot! If he really has us surrounded, why is he fleeing?" scolded the head . He then commanded, "Seventh brother, take two men with you and go get the kid's head . We can’t spare anyone who dares to challenge us . "

"Yes, head!" answered a middle-aged man .

This person emanated an aura that was much thicker than the common bandits here . He was a peak third-stage Transformation Realm expert . His name was Li Hao, and he ranked seventh in this bandit group . He set off with only two people, but the two were respectively first-stage and second-stage Transformation Realm cultivators .

Mounted on red wolves, they rushed out the stronghold and chased after Xiang Shaoyun . The red wolves they rode were Intermediate Demons, much faster than Xiang Shaoyun's demonic horse . Before long, Xiang Shaoyun reappeared in their vision . When they confirmed that there was no ambush, they increased their speed .

Xiang Shaoyun already had a route in mind . He brought them along into some uninhabited woods, making use of the woods to slow them down . He was going to lead them further away from their stronghold before killing all three of them .

Li Hao's group of three moved at a fast speed, not giving Xiang Shaoyun any chance to escape . They even spread out and surrounded Xiang Shaoyun, sealing his escape .

"Run, kid . Come on, keep on running . Where can you run now?" Li Hao berated .

"Run? Who told you I'm running?" Xiang Shaoyun sneered .

"Ohh, you have a sharp mouth . Let me smash that mouth of yours," said the first-stage Transformation Realm bandit . With a yell, he charged forth with his mount before slamming his hammer toward Xiang Shaoyun .

It was a vicious attack . As the hammer was a spiked hammer, if the attack struck, blood would definitely flow . Unfortunately for him, he had been too hasty to attack before even figuring out Xiang Shaoyun's true strength . It was no different from suicide .

Seated on his demonic horse, Xiang Shaoyun bowed down and avoided the attack before stabbing his spear forward . The spear snaked out like a lightning bolt . The first-stage Transformation Realm was frightened to discover that he couldn't avoid the attack at all . The spear pierced straight into his chest, and his armor crumbled apart .

Sphhlt!

After spitting a mouthful of blood, he was sent flying, and he crashed into a tree .

"Looks like you are quite capable after all, kid . No wonder you have the guts to challenge us . But you alone are not enough," Li Hao said before charging ahead and slashing his saber seven times in a row .

Each slash was followed tightly by another slash, almost as if they were all joined together . The attack was quick and violent, one that a cultivator in the same cultivation level would have a hard time blocking .

Without even turning to look, Xiang Shaoyun swung his spear around him and formed an impenetrable defense that blocked all seven of the saber slashes . But the impact of the collision was too much for the demonic horse to handle, causing the horse to start bleeding from its nose . The horse did not look like it was going to survive for long .

Right this moment, the second-stage Transformation Realm bandit appeared from beside Xiang Shaoyun . Like a viper, his spear stabbed at a vital point on Xiang Shaoyun's body, aiming to kill with a single hit .

Xiang Shaoyun was lacking in combat experience, but his gift of insights was unmatched . Just as the attack was about to hit, he jumped off his horse . The horse was immediately killed by the two bandits, reduced into a pile of mincemeat .

"Both of you will pay for killing my mount!" Xiang Shaoyun howled as he unleashed his presence of dragon and tiger .

The terrifying oppression of a king crushed down on the two . Li Hao and the other bandit instantly had an illusion that Xiang Shaoyun had transformed into a prince, his majestic presence bearing upon them like the weight of the world . The pressure caused them to cower in fear, and they went stiff for a split second .

Xiang Shaoyun took advantage of that split second and shot a berserk lightning bolt from his spear toward them .

The two Transformation Realm cultivators fully activated their outer energy barriers and tried their best to resist the lightning attack . But the moment the lightning touched their barriers, they went numb and could no longer move .

"Ahhhh!"

Their defenses crumbled apart, their energy barriers and armors penetrated . Blood spurted everywhere . Xiang Shaoyun continued the momentum of his attack, not giving them a chance of survival .

Bang! Bang!

And finally, Xiang Shaoyun lopped off two heads . When the first person who was sent flying witnessed that scene, fear plastered his face, and he quickly crawled away, losing the courage to even get back on his feet .

"Can you escape me?" Xiang Shaoyun sneered as he channeled his energy into his spear before tossing it at the escaping bandit .

The spear pierced the bandit's chest and nailed him into a tree . With that, all three Transformation Realm bandits were killed . Xiang Shaoyun did not stop at killing the three . Although there was nobody else for him to kill at the moment, he needed to tame a red wolf as his mount .

He moved like the wind toward the red wolf Li Hao was mounted on earlier . It was a peak Intermediate Demon that was on the verge of reaching the Great Demon level . Even so, it was still not as fast as Xiang Shaoyun . Xiang Shaoyun leaped into the air and forcefully mounted the wolf, quickly overtaking it .

"Howl!
