The Supreme God novel Chapter 200

On the mountain road about a mile away from Valley Town, a large gang of brigands was rapidly marching towards the Town. Every one of them looked fierce and the gang was led by Miller, the chief brigand of the Black Mountain Fortress. He made his way forward on a red horse and his head bowed a little.

Only few people knew that Li was Miller's family name. Lanny, the leader of the Li Clan, was his brother. And the brigands of the Black Mountain Fortress were actually the Li Clan's secret fight force. The two brothers were similar, since both did dirty work for a living—one was known to the public as a business, the other was part of the underworld.

When Miller got wind of what was going on with the Li Clan, he immediately made preparations to go to Valley Town to support his brother. But even before he left his Fortress, his spies reported that all the principal members of the Li Clan had been killed, including the leader, Lanny.

Miller was furious, his rage knowing no bounds. He soon asked everyone in the Black Mountain Fortress to gather and the band immediately started for Valley Town to avenge his brother.

With Miller were a huge number of brigands with all kinds of weapons in their hands.

"Be quick. Move forward at the highest speed! Once we get to Valley Town, we will kill everyone belonged to the Zhang Clan! None should be left alive!"

Miller's voice was full of fury, urging the group of brigands into faster movement and more butchery.

The exhausted brigands took in Miller's anger and marched quicker. It didn't matter that they had been running for a whole day already.

After a while, they came to a crossroads from where the first glimpse of Valley Town could be seen from afar.

Miller felt his heart race.

"We will soon reach Valley Town," he called out. "Every one of us must lift our spirit..."

Miller's sentence was interrupted by strange sounds.

Shoop! Shoop! Shoop!

Before the brigands could recover from their shock, dozens of arrows rained down on them from the forest that lined the road. Bodies fell hither and thither to the ground, pierced by the arrows. Soon, the air was reeking with the smell of blood.

"Watch out! It's an ambush!"

Cries rent the air at the sudden attack.

Miller paled. 'Did the Zhang Clan know about us coming here? Were they prepared for our arrival?' Miller questioned himself as his eyes took in the carnage.

"What do you think of my welcome, brigands from the Black Mountain Fortress?" a voice sounded out.

A few figures emerged from the woods and walked up to the group.

A young man and a young woman led the small band of bow-wielding people.

Austin and Mindy walked ahead of the members of the Zhang Clan sent in by Zachary. Austin and Mindy had told him that they could handle it. But according to Zachary, Mindy was a cultivator of the highest level and one who could help develop the clan into a legend, which was why he sent in more people with her for protection.

Miller's expression turned cold.

"You knew we are from the Black Mountain Fortress and yet ambushed us? Are you from the Zhang Clan?" he asked without preamble.

"You're right. What's the relationship between the Black Mountain Fortress and the Li Clan?" Mindy said furiously.

Without waiting for their response, he continued, this time talking to his people. "Look how brave the Zhang Clan is! Only about a dozen people are sent in to stop us! No talking will be done today. Every single person from the Zhang Clan must die. Fight to kill. I repeat. Fight to kill! Oh, but spare that woman's life. You can have fun with her after we win!"

Miller leered at Mindy, eyeing her with ill-disguised lust.

"We will let you take her first!" the other brigands screeched in wicked delight.

Miller's followers seemed to be heady with a lust, their excitement over the promised 'loot' refreshing them from the exhaustion of the long march.

Mindy was furious. "You bloody gangsters! How dare you!" she said, her voice quaking with rage.

"You're trying to put up a bold face before you die," Austin said calmly to the brigands.

The presence of more than two hundred brigands standing against him didn't seem to affect Austin's composure.

"There's no point boasting. Let's show him how to fight and kill him!"

At Miller's words, the brigands began moving forward, charging at Austin and his group.

"Mindy. Violet. Tackle them for now. I need a little time to prepare," Austin whispered.

The moment he finished his sentence, a green fog appeared, and from it, emerged Violet.

Mindy nodded and turned to the other members of the Zhang Clan. "If you don't want to cause trouble for us or yourselves, you'd better step back and stay safe."

Saying this, she whipped around fast as an arrow. Moments later when the whirlwind had stopped, her sword was shining and two brigands nearest them were now headless.

Violet laughed softly. The paw of a black fox appeared before her, one that obviously contained a powerful demonic force. And before anyone could comprehend it, it had attacked the brigands, quick as thunder.

A few brigands fell to the ground, frothing blood at their mouths. They were dead before anyone could utter a word.

The other members of the Zhang Clan stood there, stunned, not knowing what to do.

"Mindy is right. You need to step back. If you join the fight, she will need to take extra effort to protect you guys. All you'd do is to bring her trouble," Violet told them.

Embarrassed, the members walked away, far from the battlefield.

A brigand rushed towards Austin, waving an enormous knife in his hand. Judging by his vital energy force, he was probably at level six of the Energy Gathering Realm.

Austin smiled coldly and threw a fist at the man's chest before the knife could graze him. The knife fell from the man's hand as he was propelled backwards, instantly dead.
