Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 109 - 89: The Outcome Is Decided

If it weren’t for those two Seventh Grade Demon Beasts, the Blood Saber Sect might have annihilated more of the Wei Family’s elites.

Gongshu Yang scanned his surroundings, then quickly pulled out a red liquid concocted from vermilion and blood from his bosom and smeared it on his chin, before swiftly heading to Elder Liu’s house.

He stumbled to the door, where the servants of the Liu Family were cooking breakfast and were momentarily stunned by the noise at the entrance before someone rushed over to check.

Upon looking, they saw Gongshu Yang.

Which of the big figures in the city didn’t these servants of Elder Liu’s house recognize?

"Tributor Gongshu!! What happened to you?" Two of the servants hurried over.

Gongshu Yang panted, "Elder... Elder Liu... very urgent... very urgent..."

The servant quickly said, "Please follow me."

The other supported Gongshu Yang.

The three of them passed through the corridor, went around the flower garden, and arrived at the inner hall.

In the inner hall, Elder Liu was flipping through a thick register, which was the record of recent entries and exits from the city. She wanted to understand the departure times of the disciples to determine some matters.

It turned out, she discovered that these disciples seemed not to have returned last night, whereas the night before everything was normal.

This indicated that the "Dark Workshop" had tricked them all away for some reason.

However, those Inner City Disciples were not easy to fool. Even if the ambushers included Seventh Grade individuals, they might not succeed in exterminating everyone.

If poison or hidden weapons were used, many of those Inner City Disciples were experienced in the social world and might not be deceived.

Even the gathering itself had some questionable points...

Why would those Inner City Disciples willingly go outside the county?

Were they so sure it was safe outside the county?

Apart from this, how many strong individuals did the opponent have to deploy to simultaneously control sixteen Inner City Disciples, then send a message to Sect Leader Tie and wait for him to come?

The four people beside Sect Leader Tie, and Elder Ding, were all Seventh Grade; in Shanbao County, that was a formidable force—what exactly was the opponent’s purpose?

Elder Liu’s eyes were deeply contemplative.

Was the opponent really that strong?

So confident they could devour the Blood Saber Sect’s backbone?

Or was it...

Elder Liu was pondering when the voice of her servant sounded from outside the door.

"Elder, Tributor Gongshu is badly injured, he urgently requests to see you..."

"Gongshu Yang? Bring him in."

"Yes..."

The door opened, and the servant supported Gongshu Yang as they walked inside.

When Gongshu Yang reached the threshold stone, he staggered and fell forward.

Elder Liu gracefully floated to his front, raised her hand to support him, and was about to ask, "Who hurt you," when she suddenly felt a chill in her chest followed by intense pain.

A hidden sword from his sleeve had pierced through her heart, protruding with a bloody tip from her back.

With one stab, fearing Elder Liu’s dying retaliation, Gongshu Yang forcefully threw her away, then swung his hand to throw a shortsword behind him.

The shortsword whooshed through the air, piercing the throat of the servant standing at the door.

Gongshu Yang swiftly moved, dragging the servant into the room and gently closed the door.

Elder Liu crashed into the wall, then slid down limply, blood spouting from her chest, staining the white-bordered profound robe red.

Receiving this stab, she became aware of some things, her eyes showing fear and despair, yet still instinctively raising a hand, trying to grab a blade, but Gongshu Yang flicked his sleeves and consecutively threw out three flying swords.

Swish swish swish!

The flying swords pierced through Elder Liu’s hands, shattering her last hope.

Suddenly, she understood one thing.

The last thing...

Maybe...

Maybe... those sixteen disciples were never... never captured...

It was just a strategy to lure the tiger away from its den.

Gongshu Yang, merciless in his actions, seeing Elder Liu collapse, swiftly stepped forward and sliced her throat, then retrieved the swords, gently pushed open the window at the back of the house, climbed out, and quickly left the Liu Family, heading towards the Meat Field.

As he approached the Meat Field, he suddenly pulled out a signal tube from his bosom, lit the fuse, and blew into it.

Bang!!!

Fireworks shot into the sky, exploding in mid-air.

Following that, fireworks lit up in the distance outside the city.

Outside Silver Creek Square, a group of people who had been watching the direction of the Inner City suddenly rose, taking advantage of the dim dawn, quickly making their way through Silver Creek.

After Gongshu Yang sent out the signal, he swiftly headed toward the Meat Field; he needed to resolve the remaining Seventh Grade Elder.

...

...

The dazzling red Meat Field, resembling a flame on the earth, was already emitting a scorching heat that distorted the air before even getting close.

Rainwater falling on the Meat Field did not seep into the soil as it normally would but instead turned into wisps of steam, rising into a hazy mist that enveloped this area and the forest.

It’s clearly a desolate and bleak autumn, yet this fog feels as hot as summer.

Beside the Meat Field, in the small hut, Elder Tian fanned himself while squinting at the Meat Field.

This fog made it impossible for him to sleep...

Speaking of which, he’s been guarding the Meat Field for so long, yet he hasn’t figured out how it formed.

All he knows is it’s a piece of land that can’t be moved or relocated...

It can’t be expanded, nor can it be destroyed...

He once attempted to cultivate the land next to the Meat Field, hoping it would spread over, thereby expanding the field.

But he failed...

Even when the space next to the Meat Field was completely empty, the meat wouldn’t grow over.

Even if he threw meat from the Meat Field to fill up the void, the thrown meat wouldn’t join the Meat Field, let alone form a new one.

He also attempted to dig when the Meat Field was harvested, before anything could grow, but as he dug deeper, he noticed the ground was extremely hot and dense.

Hot and dense, it didn’t resemble land where meat could grow.

He exerted all his strength, but couldn’t leave the slightest mark on this ground, so he had to give up.

At that moment, he was immersed in the hot fog.

But this fog had no blood smell, it was pure water vapor.

Just as he was thinking, hurried footsteps came from afar.

"Who?"

Elder Tian asked.

"Old Tian... it’s me, something happened, something big..."

A figure rushed hurriedly from afar.

"Tributor Gongshu? What are you doing here? And why is there blood on you?"

"The Wei Family, the Sun Family... have attacked. Inside the city... there’s inside support... I’ve been injured... I... cough cough..."

A series of voices mingled with violent coughing came from afar, Gongshu Yang clutching his chest, painfully staggered forward.

Elder Tian’s expression shifted slightly, recalling the fireworks just now, he suddenly realized... that was the signal fireworks from the inside support.

But what kind of inside support could have injured Gongshu Yang.

Wait, Gongshu Yang wasn’t even supposed to be here.

He warned cautiously, "Tributor Gongshu, aren’t you supposed to be at Datong Square? When did you..."

Before he could finish, the small, skinny figure lying on the ground suddenly sprang up like lightning, a cold flash passing in his hands.

Elder Tian abruptly retreated, dodging the attack, but a blood mark was left as he failed to dodge it completely, shallow blood oozing from the wound.

Elder Tian asked no more, he flung his arm, reaching for the Long Blade beside him.

But Gongshu Yang suddenly flung a Flying Sword.

Elder Tian dodged continuously.

Suddenly, Gongshu Yang charged forward; Elder Tian couldn’t take the blade, so he pushed forward with his palms, intending to knock Gongshu Yang back.

Upon contact, power surged and exploded, with a booming sound, both were thrown back.

Gongshu Yang landed on the ground, while Elder Tian fell towards the Meat Field.

Pop!

Elder Tian flung his arm towards the edge of the field, trying to leverage himself up.

But not far away, a piercing cold light flashed again.

The cold light directly pinned his hand.

The blood on the back of Elder Tian’s hand flashed, the Protective Blood Shirt forcibly bounced the cold light away.

But this slight delay, accompanied by a "bang" from the ground, Gongshu Yang rushed in front of him again, slashing at him with a short sword.

Elder Tian hastily dodged...

The two exchanged blows again and again, over ten rounds.

Elder Tian wanted to get to the shore, but was continuously suppressed.

Finally, he exposed a flaw, kicked away by Gongshu Yang, falling into the field.

Elder Tian hurriedly exerted his power to lock the wounds on his body, fearing his own blood might touch the Meat Field...

Then, he attempted to step out of the field and return to the ground.

Gongshu Yang didn’t expect him to be so difficult, and rushed to intercept him.

The two engaged in another intense battle, eventually... Elder Tian finally failed, falling back into the Meat Field.

This time, he could no longer control his heavily injured body.

A terrifying scene unfolded, Elder Tian let out a miserable scream, then his flesh and blood, like droplets of water onto cotton, was instantly pulled into the Meat Field, vanishing without a trace... or perhaps becoming fertilizer for the field.

Gongshu Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief, then showed a smile...

Two elders were resolved, the Demon Breeding Pavilion and Puppet Room should also be controlled.

The overall situation is settled!

Now... it’s time to go to the city gate to assist in breaking the city.
