Chapter 267 Rest and Fight
After this tragic battle, Li Yunfei and his companions sat exhausted on the battlefield covered in blood and smoke. The setting sun was like blood, stretching their figures to be slender and lonely.
Li Yunfei was breathing heavily, his clothes were torn and bloodstained, and every wound told of the cruelty of the battle. He looked at the setting sun in the distance, his eyes showing both the joy of victory and the worry about the future.
Lin Yue leaned against a broken boulder, her staff slanted to the ground, her hands hanging limply. Her face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat on her forehead slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the dry ground.
Zhang Hao lay on the ground, his eyes closed, his chest heaving violently. His spear fell to the side, the tip of the spear was broken, and the wounds on his body were shocking.
Feng Yu sat not far away, hugging her knees with her hands and burying her head deeply in her arms. Her hair was messy and the fire power on her body became weak and unstable.
Mo Ying stood alone on the side, his figure blending into the gradually falling night, and only his light breathing proved his existence.
After a long while, Li Yunfei stood up with all his strength and said in a hoarse voice: "Everyone, we have to hurry back to the town and rest. The Dark Cult will not give us too much time to catch our breath."
Upon hearing this, everyone struggled to get up, supported each other, and slowly walked towards the town.
Back in town, people cheered and welcomed their heroes' return, but Li Yunfei and others did not feel the slightest joy. They knew very well that this was only a temporary victory in a difficult battle.
Lin Yue returned to her residence and fell headfirst onto the bed. Her consciousness gradually blurred and she fell into a deep sleep. In her dream, she seemed to be back on the fierce battlefield, with spells flashing and enemies falling one after another.
Zhang Hao sat in his yard, silently wiping the spear that had accompanied him in battle for many years. His eyes were focused and determined, and every time he wiped it, it seemed as if he was talking to the spear, telling it that it would be more heroic in the next battle.
Feng Yu soaked in the tub, the hot water soothing her tired body, but her thoughts drifted far away. She thought of the peaceful days and secretly vowed to make such days come back again.
Mo Ying sat alone on the roof, looking at the starry sky. His eyes were deep and mysterious, like the farthest stars in the night sky.
The next morning, the sun shone on the streets of the town, but it could not dispel the haze in people's hearts. Li Yunfei gathered everyone in the town hall to discuss the next step.
"Although the Dark Cult suffered a setback this time, they will definitely make a comeback and will be even more ferocious." Li Yunfei said solemnly.
Lin Yue nodded slightly, "We need more information to understand their next plan."
Zhang Hao slammed the table, "What are you afraid of? I'll beat you up every time you come!"
Feng Yu said softly: "But we can't fight blindly, we must be fully prepared."
Mo Ying remained silent, but a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
Just then, a spy came hurriedly.
"Oh no! The Dark Cult is burning, killing, looting and committing all sorts of atrocities in the surrounding villages!" the spy said breathlessly.
When Li Yunfei heard this, his eyes widened with anger, "These beasts!"
Everyone immediately stood up and prepared to go to the rescue.
They rode their horses, galloping like arrows from a bow, the sound of horses' hooves echoing on the road, raising a cloud of dust. Along the way, the wind whistled past their ears, as if it was the call of death. Their heartbeats accelerated rapidly, and tension and fear filled every cell. Finally, they arrived at the village, but the scene in front of them made them tear their eyes out. The village had been engulfed by a raging fire, the flames licked the houses, and black smoke filled the air. The originally quiet little village has now become a ruin, with collapsed houses, broken walls, and charred wood emitting a pungent smell. What is even more distressing is that the bodies of the villagers were scattered on the ground, bloodstained and horrible. Li Yunfei clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles turned pale due to excessive force. His eyes were full of anger and hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Dark Cult, I will never reconcile with you!" The anger in his heart burned endlessly, and his hatred for the enemy surged into his heart like a tide. Lin Yue was also shocked by the tragic scene and was speechless, but she quickly came to her senses and realized that time was running out. She immediately cast a spell, hoping to find survivors. She closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, mobilized the magic power in her body, and released it. A powerful energy wave spread from her body, covering the entire village. She carefully felt the breath of life around her, hoping to find anyone who survived.
"There's movement over here!" Zhang Hao shouted.
Everyone rushed over and saw a little girl hiding under the rubble, shivering.
Feng Yu gently carried the little girl out and comforted her.
The little girl's eyes were filled with fear and tears, "Monsters... So many monsters..."
Mo Ying watched all this silently, the murderous intent in his eyes becoming stronger and stronger.
"We must make the Dark Cult pay the price!" Li Yunfei said.
They searched the village, leaving no corner untouched.
Suddenly, a sinister laugh was heard.
"Do you think you can save everyone?" A dark wizard appeared in front of them.
Li Yunfei rushed forward with sword in hand without saying a word.
The dark wizard waved his wand and dark spells came towards them.
Lin Yue quickly cast a defensive spell to block the attack for everyone.
Zhang Hao and Feng Yu took the opportunity to encircle them from both sides.
Mo Ying hid in the darkness, looking for the wizard's flaws.
Li Yunfei engaged in a fierce fight with the dark wizard, and the sound of swords and wands clashing echoed in the air.
"Die!" Li Yunfei shouted, swinging the sword in his hand as fast as lightning, and his sword skills became more and more fierce. Each sword was full of powerful force and precise skills, making the dark wizard gradually feel powerless.
As time went by, Li Yunfei gradually broke through the dark wizard's defense, and he began to show flaws. At this moment, Mo Ying, who had been hiding in the dark, saw the opportunity and suddenly appeared. She approached the dark wizard quickly like a ghost, and the short blade in her hand flashed with cold light, stabbing straight into the wizard's back.
The dark wizard was totally unprepared for this blow. He felt a sharp pain in his back, screamed, and fell to the ground. His body twitched, and blood gushed out of the wound, staining the ground red.
Li Yunfei and Mo Ying stood aside, looking at the fallen dark wizard, with a glimmer of joy of victory in their eyes. They successfully defeated this evil enemy and protected the people around them from the threat.
"Let's go! Let's go back to town and prepare for a bigger battle!" Li Yunfei said.
