Encountering the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, Instantly Killing Snake People Race

Chapter 44: Encountering the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, Annihilating the Snake People Race in Seconds

The Tagor Desert, the scorching sun hung high in the sky, baking the entire land, and hot yellow sand covered the ground underfoot.

Xiao Tian sped along the way, his Purple Cloud Wings flapping continuously, his figure as ethereal and agile as a ghost. After half an hour, seeing figures ahead, Xiao Tian finally stopped.

However, not long after he landed, a dark-skinned man ran rapidly towards him.

When he reached Xiao Tian, the dark-skinned man panted heavily before looking at Xiao Tian with pleading eyes and saying:

"Little brother, you've appeared at the perfect time. We've been attacked by the Snake People Race. Please help us go to Stone Desert City to get reinforcements!"

Hearing this, Xiao Tian didn't pay much attention. He just wanted to cross this desert as soon as possible and was about to activate his Purple Cloud Wings to leave.

However, at that moment, the dark-skinned man suddenly grabbed his thigh and pleaded, "Little brother, I'm begging you, help us this once, and I'll give you a huge reward. Otherwise, our entire Desert Iron Mercenary Group will perish here!"

The dark-skinned man held tightly onto Xiao Tian's thigh, unwilling to let go, as if afraid he would run away.

"Say that again, what mercenary group are you?" However, upon hearing this, Xiao Tian abruptly stopped and asked with a slight frown.

"The Desert Iron Mercenary Group, why?" Seeing Xiao Tian's reaction was a bit strange, the dark-skinned man asked with some confusion.

Hearing this, a look of immense astonishment appeared on Xiao Tian's face.

"The Desert Iron Mercenary Group in Stone Desert City, isn't that precisely..."

After a moment of shock, Xiao Tian immediately looked at him again and asked, "What's your leader's name?"

The dark-skinned man was stunned and blurted out, "Xiao Li, Xiao Ding, why?"

Hearing these two names, Xiao Tian was utterly astonished. He hadn't expected to encounter two of Xiao Yan's elder brothers.

These two were both Xiao Yan's elder brothers, the eldest being Xiao Ding and the second eldest being Xiao Li. Xiao Tian had been on very good terms with them since childhood. After all, in the entire Xiao Clan, only Clan Leader Xiao Zhan's family treated him kindly.

"Little brother, looking at your expression, do you know our Desert Iron Mercenary Group?" At this moment, seeing Xiao Tian's dazed look, the dark-skinned man couldn't help but ask.

"Not only do I know them, but your leader is also my cousin!" Xiao Tian said with a wry smile.

"Ah? This..." Hearing this, the dark-skinned man's mouth instantly fell open in disbelief.

Seeing him stunned, Xiao Tian took out a Detoxification Pill from his Storage Ring and handed it to him, saying lightly:

"Seeing your lips are purple, you must have been poisoned by a snake. You should detoxify first!"

After taking the pill, the dark-skinned man immediately thanked him and then swallowed the Detoxification Pill in one gulp. His complexion recovered by half.

"Little brother, since our leader is your cousin, this matter is even simpler. Hurry up and go to Stone Desert City to get reinforcements, otherwise my brothers will all die!" At this moment, the dark-skinned man urged anxiously, as many Snake People were already surrounding and attacking their team, and more and more were gathering.

"Lead the way directly!" Xiao Tian glanced at him and said.

Hearing this, the dark-skinned man was instantly stunned and asked doubtfully, "Just the two of us going?"

Xiao Tian nodded and said lightly, "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and lead the way!"

Seeing the unquestionable confidence in Xiao Tian's eyes, the dark-skinned man hesitated for a moment before suddenly pointing in a direction.

Immediately, Xiao Tian activated his Purple Cloud Wings and took him to fly quickly.

This sudden flight startled the dark-skinned man, his eyes wide open and filled with shock. He never imagined that the young man before him could fly.

This was a patent exclusive to Dou King experts, after all.

A moment later, Xiao Tian spotted more than a dozen mercenaries behind a hill, fighting with seven or eight strangely-looking Snake People.

"Roar, kill them all!!"

At this moment, a leader among the Snake People shouted, and the rest of the Snake People rapidly attacked the mercenaries.

Seeing this, the mercenaries of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group all had grim expressions, their hearts filled with despair.

These Snake People were incredibly difficult to deal with, and they had already lost several brothers.

The reinforcements still hadn't arrived, and they couldn't hold on much longer. It was likely that this small team would be wiped out.

Gritting their teeth, the dozen or so mercenaries tightly gripped their weapons, preparing to charge forward for a desperate fight.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly descended from the sky, landing heavily between the two warring parties.

The sudden appearance of the young man with the greatsword caused both sides to pause slightly.

"Get back!"

Xiao Tian slightly turned his head and said lightly to the dozen or so mercenaries behind him.

Hearing his words, the dozen or so people looked at him in confusion, but their bodies instinctively retreated a few steps.

At this moment, looking at the eight strangely-looking and powerful Snake People before him, Xiao Tian instantly drew the Zi Wu Qi Xing Sword from his back. Surging Dou Qi permeated the sword, emitting a sharp, cold glint.

"Roar, who is this little bastard interfering? Kill him!"

Seeing Xiao Tian's actions, the leader of the Snake People became furious, let out a ferocious roar, and then all the Snake People attacked Xiao Tian.

Facing the swarming Snake People, Xiao Tian calmly raised the Zi Wu Qi Xing Sword and swept it out fiercely.

Swish—

Instantly, a piercing sound of wind breaking echoed through the sky. A point of cold light shot out, tearing through the void like lightning, shredding the three Snake People in the front into minced meat.

Puchi, puchi, puchi—

In an instant, a mist of blood erupted, scarlet blood splattering across the sky. The thick smell of gore instantly filled the air, making one nauseous.

Seeing their three companions cleaved in two, the remaining five Snake People were instantly stunned, their minds going blank and forgetting to attack.

Witnessing this, a curve formed on Xiao Tian's lips. He then stomped his foot hard on the ground, his body transforming into an afterimage. With a swift sword strike, he reaped the lives of the other Snake People in the blink of an eye, including their leader.

In mere moments, all eight Snake People, each with considerable strength, met their end by his sword without exception.

After dealing with these Snake People, Xiao Tian slung the greatsword back onto his shoulders.

This scene had already left the dozen or so mercenaries gaping in shock.

After a long while, a beautiful woman among the mercenaries, stroking her forehead, looked at the dark-skinned man beside her and asked:

"Dan Zai, where... where did you find such a powerful rescuer??"

The dark-skinned man scratched his head and chuckled honestly, "Heh heh, Xue Lan, I just happened to run into him. He said our group leader is his cousin!"

"The group leader's cousin? That strong?!"

Upon hearing this, all the mercenaries looked at Xiao Tian in disbelief, their mouths agape as if they had seen a ghost.
