Cutting a Bloody Path

Su Xiao slit the throats of two beastmen. At the same time, the nearby tribal soldiers caught the pungent smell of blood and immediately grew alert.

Su Xiao charged into the tribal army, weaving between the soldiers. His only targets were their throats, and every slash was lethal.

By the time Su Xiao had taken down twelve enemies, the surrounding tribal army had completely spotted him.

"Enemy attack!!"

The tribal soldiers nearby were somewhat incredulous. If Su Xiao had been an Dark Elf, they would not have been surprised, but no matter how they looked at him, he was clearly human.

Su Xiao put away the Slaughtering Dagger. Dragon Slayer Flash appeared in his hand, and Counter Shield activated.

Ring Break.

Clang.

A circular Blade Glow spread outward. The tribal soldiers around Su Xiao froze in place, a blood line appearing between their chests and abdomens. As for the dwarves, their skulls were cleaved open from the crown straight down.

Without even looking at the soldiers standing frozen in place, Su Xiao charged straight ahead. He needed to fight his way back to Kurotsuchi Fortress before attracting the attention of the enemy's higher-ups.

Ring Break cleared the area, and Su Xiao charged more than ten meters into the tribal army. As he advanced, the upper halves of the frozen tribal soldiers toppled to the ground, wailing in agony as they awaited death.

Su Xiao kept his eyes on the front. He ignored all attacks from the left, right, and rear, leaving them all to Counter Shield.

His long blade flashed through the air. Because enemies blocked his path, Su Xiao's forward momentum slowed noticeably. He had to kill the enemies in front of him before he could charge through.

"Kill him!"

"Enemy troops have appeared in the rear!"

Roars rang
