Bloody Slaughter

The murderous intent in his heart surged rapidly in an instant, and the killing aura emanating from his body continuously emanated from within, creating a terrifying aura that surrounded Xuan Ye.

"Since the ninja in the shadows isn't showing up, I'll make my move first. They should come out after I kill these bandits!"

A wicked smile crept across Xuan Ye's lips as he slowly reached into his pockets and pulled out two black Kunai he had bought from the town. The Kunai emitted a dark glow as soon as they were exposed, looking extremely dangerous.

"Hmph! You little bandits, if you hadn't come looking for trouble with this caravan, I wouldn't have bothered dealing with you. But now that you've come knocking on my door, if I don't retaliate, wouldn't everyone think I'm easy to mess with?"

Slightly raising his hands holding the Kunai, his eyes fixed on the fierce bandits before him, he pushed off with his legs and vanished from the tree branch in an instant, appearing before the bandits in the blink of Xuan Ye eye.

At this moment, the bandits launched their attack. More than thirty bandits attacked the guards protecting the caravan's goods, and in an instant, an atmosphere of slaughter spread here.

"Ah, that feels great! I love this atmosphere."

Xuan Ye stood in front of more than thirty bandits, his eyes slightly closed, constantly sniffing the air around him, a twisted smile on his face.

Because the bandits had already made their move, there were casualties on the scene. Of the more than 30 bandits, one had been killed by the guards, and four or five were injured. On the guards' side, four had died and seven were injured.

The advantage lies in numbers. When the fighting strength of both sides is roughly equal, the side with more people will always have the advantage. However, the number of bandits and guards is almost double that of the bandits, and the bandits also have the advantage in fighting strength.

Because these mountain bandits frequently engage in all sorts of brutal battles, they are fearless and extremely ruthless when facing combat.

Just as the bandits were fiercely killing the guards protecting the goods, a child suddenly appeared in front of them. The child was dressed in white, had short black hair, and held a black Kunai in each hand. The Kunai in the child's hands looked very sharp.

However, these things did not attract the attention of the bandits; what did attract their attention was the child's eyes.

Yes, it was the eyes. When the child in front of me opened his eyes, they turned blood red, an extremely terrifying color, exactly the same as the color of blood donated in the human body.

Upon seeing those eyes, the bandits who were fighting were actually frightened. Almost all of them trembled slightly and almost knelt on the ground.

The bandits dared not meet those eyes, as if looking into them was like being stared at by a strong, intense killing intent, as if they would die at any moment.

"Who are you, child? Why are you here?" The leader of the bandits finally forced himself to overcome his fear and raised his head to ask Xuan Ye.

However, as soon as he saw Xuan Ye's blood-red eyes, his gaze immediately shifted elsewhere, because those eyes were simply too terrifying. Just one glance was enough to make the Mountain Bandit Leader's back covered in sweat, as if he had encountered something extremely frightening.

"Me? Are you asking me?"

Xuan Ye tilted his head, looked at the Mountain Bandit Leader, and asked with a slightly wicked smile.

"Yes, I am asking you. This is not a place for a child like you. You should leave now, or I might accidentally hurt you."

The Mountain Bandit Leader spoke in a flustered manner, stuttering slightly. His gaze darted around, but never landed on Xuan Ye, because he was afraid. He was afraid of the child who had suddenly appeared in front of him. For some reason, he could sense an extremely powerful aura emanating from the child, a deadly aura.

After all, he was the leader of the bandits. Other bandits could choose not to show up at this time, but he couldn't. If he did, his prestige would be greatly diminished or even disappear.

"Heh! You want me to leave? Do you think I'm a child and shouldn't be in a place like this?" Xuan Ye paused for a moment as he spoke.

"Then you might as well die. All the bandits here don't need to live either."

After saying that, Xuan Ye raised his hands and gripped the two Kunai tightly. With a burst of power from his legs, the strength of his Chunin -level physical body was unleashed at that moment.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The wind howled, and in that instant, before any of the bandits could react, they were already close to Xuan Ye's Shadow Clone. Once close, Xuan Ye simply raised the Kunai in his hand and gently slashed it towards the neck of the bandit in front of him.

A stream of bright red blood spurted from the bandit's neck. After dealing with this bandit, he immediately moved on to the next one, and with a light Kunai of his kunai, another bandit died.

In a mere second, all the bandits were killed by Xuan Ye's Shadow Clone, leaving only the Mountain Bandit Leader besides the caravan members.

"Now that all your men are dead, what do you think your fate will be?" Xuan Ye walked up to the Mountain Bandit Leader, stood in front of him, and smiled as he looked at his panicked face.

At this moment, the fear in the Mountain Bandit Leader's heart exploded and continued to increase. The fear in his heart made him weak all over, and he didn't even have the strength to run away. The long machete in his hand had also slipped out of his control and fell straight to the ground.

Suddenly, the Mountain Bandit Leader who was standing in front of Xuan Ye knelt down, his body trembling uncontrollably, tears streaming down his face.

"Please, please spare me! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"

The Mountain Bandit Leader, kneeling before Xuan Ye, kept shouting and begging for mercy from the young boy standing in front of him.

The deaths of all his bandits had completely extinguished the ruthlessness in his heart. At this moment, he could only kneel on the ground and beg the child in front of him for mercy.

"Let you go? Do you think that's possible?"

Upon hearing Xuan Ye's words, the Mountain Bandit Leader, who was kneeling on the ground, wanted to continue begging for mercy and even wanted to save the child's leg in front of him.
