Chapter 26: Send the Riders and Horses Flying
Chapter 26 Send the Riders and Horses Flying
As the leader of the riders gave the order, all the riders lifted the machetes in their hands. The edge of the machetes reflected the gleaming sunlight and gave off a cold glow.
Although men of the Qilian Tribe held weapons, every one of them was scared to death. They didn't dare to organize an effective resistance. They were so scared that many people even knelt down.
“Roar~~”
The riders howled as they charged towards the crowd on horseback.
“Useless worms that can't even pay the amount of silver.” The leader of the mounted riders sat high up on horseback and watched this scene with an indifferent expression. To the leader of the riders, after doing this all year-long, killing people couldn't trigger any emotional responses as he said, “It's time to see some blood——”
He was even expecting to see that first shade of red!
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”
A very heavy and deep sound rang. It sounded like the sound of a heavy hammer striking on a big drum. Hearing this kind of sound, everyone’s heart trembled involuntarily, and they immediately turned to look.
Blood splattered before their eyes.
Three war horses and three riders flew high up. Everyone looked up at the three war horses and the riders in the air.
“Bang!” A crash sound rang as the three war horses and riders fell heavily on the ground. A trickle of blood flowed out of their mouth, and they no longer made any sounds.
In the blink of an eye, three war horses and riders died!
“Neigh~~” All the riders that were charging forward immediately stopped their horses. The eyes of the riders reddened as they stared at the beggar-like figure standing in front!
It was a man dressed in a ragged cotton cloak with unkempt long hair. However, the man had eyes that was like the Lake of Heavens at the pinnacle of the God of Heaven Mountain. The pair of eyes was so calm to the point that it caused their hearts to palpitate.
“Qilian Tribe, you all dared to resist!!! Do you want an annihilation?” The leader of the riders roared furiously as he glared.
The chief of the Qilian Tribe shook his head in fright as he answered, “No, no. That is not a member of our Qilian Tribe!”
“We don't know him! Don't know him!” The young man who borrowed money from Chabu hastily shouted, “He has no relations with the Qilian Tribe! No relations whatsoever!”
Standing at the forefront, Teng Qingshan frowned.
Wasn’t he helping them?
Yet, they were trying to cut off their relationship with him?
Teng Qingshan turned and glanced at Chabu. Chabu anxiously casted a meaningful glance at
Teng Qingshan as he shook his head. Yet, he didn't dare to talk.
“Oh! An outsider!” The leader of the riders stared at Teng Qingshan apathetically as if he were looking at a dead man.
“Outsider, listen clearly. Under the light of the God of Heaven, no one would dare to fight against the Whole Gale Tribe on this Great Prairie! The ones who do all die!” Mounted on his horse, the leader of the riders looked down at Teng Qingshan.
As for the other riders, their eyes reddened as they stared at Teng Qingshan like a pack of mad wolves.
“Those who kill the men of the Whole Gale Tribe must die!!!” The leader of the riders roared.
Teng Qingshan glanced coldly at the leader and spoke softly, “A frog in the well!” Even though this sentence was spoken softly, everyone heard it.
As soon he spoke, the riders became even more angry.
“Kill!” The leader of the riders waved the machete in his hand and pointed at Teng Qingshan while roaring madly, “Kill him!!!”
“Kill!”
“Kill!!!”
All the riders lifted their cold, gleaming machetes one by one. As their war horses galloped, the riders charged towards Teng Qingshan like a strong flood of swords and sabers. Yet, Teng Qingshan was like a reef that remained unmoved even after a thousand years of impact.
Watching the scene at the side, different expressions could be seen on the faces of the members of the Qilian Tribe. Some were gnashing and clenching their teeth while some looked sad.
“Brother Huhe, why…... “ Chabu clenched his fist.
“Bastard.” Silan gnashed his teeth while his face twitched.
“This fellow thinks he has some ability. However——how can anyone provoke the men of the Whole Gale Tribe? Anyonewho does so will definitely die,” Chabu’s brother, the teenager that had borrowed money, said softly.
Suddenly——
Everyone was astonished.
“Bang!” “Bang!’ “Bang!” ….The dense sounds rang like the heavy beats of a drum.
After a the time to wink an eye!
All nine war horses of the first wave flew up. The weirdest thing was——the nine riders that seemed to have not been hit actually puked blood.
“Bang!” Teng Qingshan’s palm smacked a horse's body. The horse's body quivered like waves, and a force of impact was transmitted to the rider, causing the riders to also quiver. Even though Teng Qingshan’s palm did not touch the riders, the force of impact transmitted from their horses would have crushed the riders’ internal organs.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
Teng Qingshan’s body appeared as fast as lightning while his hands appeared as slow as a mill. Strangely enough, his seemingly slow hands were simultaneously swift.
As deep “Bang!” “Bang!” noises were heard, the war horses and riders were blasted away.
Anyone that got hit would definitely die!
“Stop! Stop!” The leader of the riders finally realized something and hastily shouted in fright. Their war horses were the best war horses that could be found on the prairie! On the prairie, horses, cows, and sheep had the greatest abundance. War horses of excellent quality were not expensive, and once a war horse charged forward, it would produce a force of impact over ten thousand Jin.
However, the charging war horses were like mud in front of the “beggar.” Each of them was blasted away with just one smack!
“Flee!”
“Quickly flee!”
The rideres encircling Teng Qingshan screamed. They hastily turned their horse back in order to escape, but turning around still required time.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The hearts of the frightened the horse bandits quivered. The sounds of the heavy hits still rang repeatedly, breaking the mounted bandits mentally.
Numerous war horses and men flew into the air, and after over fifty war horses and men died, these riders finally fled in all direction.
Dressed in ragged clothes, Teng Qingshan glanced at the group of people running away and shouted, “You want to kill me with such few numbers?!”
Compared to the annihilation that occurred in the Golden Wolf Kingdom, this was nothing. During that time, Teng Qingshan slaughtered sixteen thousand people and injured over three thousand.
The injuries had all been caused by the Qi that Teng Qingshan released subconsciously during the battle.
“What is wrong with this Qilian Tribe?” Teng Qingshan turned and looked towards the group of tribesmen.
The entire Qilian Tribe looked at Teng Qingshan as if they were looking at a god!
The terrifying battle just now only lasted a few seconds!
In the beginning, the riders howled as they encircled to kill, but as soon as they touched Teng Qingshan, nine war horses flew into the air. The riders clenched their teeth and continued charging forward, but a dozen more people were killed. When they finally wanted to escape in fright, the retreat caused a mass of confusion, so twenty more people died!
The men of the Qilian Tribe only saw the war horses and riders fly into the air.
The palm, which seemed so ordinary, contained an incredible power.
“How is that possible!”
“His palm didn't even touch the riders; yet, the riders died?”
“Why are the men of the Whole Gale Tribe so weak? All of them were launched into the air….”
Qilian Tribe was dumbstruck. They had never seen such a terrifying figure. Perhaps in their eyes, a good hero was someone was adept at using a machete and was able to kill a few ordinary mounted bandits.
Furthermore, they had never seen someone who dared to go directly against the Whole Gale Tribe. Those who didn't seem to care about the Whole Gale Tribe were extremely powerful figures! Even if someone was a major figure, he would most likely just rely on the forces he possessed to frighten the Whole Gale Tribe, but he wouldn't dare to fight the Whole Gale Tribe face to face.
“Brother Huhe…...Lord Huhe!” Chabu walked over and immediately bowed.
“Brother Chabu, just call me Huhe,” Teng Qingshan said.
The nearby tribesmen were very afraid. At this moment, many kids and elderly people ran over. When they heard the others talk of what just happened, they grew shocked.
“Uncle Huhe, did you kill all of them?” Chabu’s son, the cute kid, hastily ran over and asked as he stared at Teng Qingshan with an expression of surprise and admiration.
“Jiran, don't play around.” Chabu hastily pulled his son.
Teng Qingshan could feel that the straightforward tribal man was already acting very discreet. At this moment, Silan, the number one hero of the Qilian Tribe, walked over and bowed. With a voice filled with gratitude, he said, “Lord Huhe, thank you for temporarily saving Qilian Tribe from this calamity.”
Teng Qingshan frowned when he heard this and thought to himself, “Temporarily?”
“Lord Huhe! If it wasn't because of you, many tribesmen of our Qilian Tribe would have died today.” The chief also bowed gratefully.
Teng Qingshan remembered clearly——
When he helped just now, the men of the Qilian Tribe all tried to cut off their relationship with him.
“Can someone tell me what happened?” Teng Qingshan looked at the tribesmen with a dubious expression.
“Lord Huhe.” The man named Silan said with respect, “You must be an outsider from a faraway place! In the northern regions of the Great Prairie, there are four supreme tribes. Each of the four most powerful tribes control one of the four regions in the northern region of the prairie! As for the region in which we stand it is under the control of the Whole Gale Tribe.
Teng Qingshan frowned and asked, “They are not mounted bandits?”
“No, they are the strongest tribe in this region,” Silan answered.
Teng Qingshan shook his head and remarked, “Not mounted bandits but even worse than mounted bandits.”
Silan smiled helplessly, “Lord, the northern area of the Great Prairie is under the control of four Great Tribes. At least the northern area doesn't have as many deaths as the central regions of the prairie! As long as you pay enough silver, you will be able to live.”
“And your great God of Heaven Mountain doesn't care?” Teng Qingshan asked.
“Lord, please don't slander the God of Heaven Mountain,” Silan answered solemnly.
“The God of Heaven is altruistic and fair!” Chabu hastily added, “The great God of Heaven will not be biased. Unless we surpass the four Great Tribes, replacing them is impossible! Plus, the great God of Heaven said that…...no matter what the reason of the battle, everyone is absolutely forbidden from killing children! The children are the future of the Great Prairie…..If anyone dared to disobey, the God of Heaven will unleash retribution.”
Teng Qingshan listened quietly.
The more he thought, the more he felt that the God of Heaven should be more of a religion. The natives of the Great Prairie had been taught since a young age that the God of Heaven was altruistic, fair, etcetera.
“Tell me. What punishment was the Whole Gale Tribe talking about?” Teng Qingshan asked.
Silan clenched his teeth and said, “If we can't pay the amount of silver, the men of the Whole Gale will kill half of our tribesmen, and…..and…..
At the side, Chabu interrupted softly as his eyes reddened, “And they will even sexually humiliate our women! This is the punishment! After this punishment, the silver for this year would be considered paid.”
