Chapter 62 Combined Efforts

The screams of those fleeing the black worm resounded throughout the small peninsula. With the screams of the giant black worm, more worms emerged from the ground and attacked the people and the people's houses.

Many hunters who have not participate in the Hero War do not know what to do. In addition to standing blankly on the street, like ordinary citizens in Cloud City, helplessly staring at the giant worms.

Guo Baiyu said, "Ah Bao sent a retreat signal." He looked at the young disciple. "Everyone leads the people to Peach Blossom Mountain."

"Yes, master."

Zhao Renshu looked at Ping'an and said, "You took the two boys and Dachin to Peach Blossom Valley."

Yang Bao took out a talisman from his inner rope and sent it up the sky. After a while, many people in Cloud City rushed up and headed towards Peach Blossom Mountain.

Zhao Renshu said, "If you haven't dealt with such monsters, you can stay in our school." He smirked at the other clans and sectors.

Guozhao Zhiqiang looked at Deming and said, "Go back to your room..." He coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Guo Baiyu said, "You don't have the conditions to fight now. Just stay here and wait for us. You and a group of juniors stay here in case another worm emerges here. No worm venture past this medicine shop."

Guozhao Zhiqiang said, "I understand."

Zhao Renshu, "Xiao Mei and Ah Qiu, you two stays." He looked at his apprentices. "The rest of you follow us."

Guo Baiyu brought Tam Kun, Tam Liang, Zheng Yaozu, Zheng Tingfeng and other twenty disciples to the left of the city. Fang Yaoting brought Yang Bao, Guozhao Bolin, Guozhao Shaquan, Guozhao Zhaohui, Tian Xian, Yu Lei, and forty disciples to the right of the city. Zhao Renshu brought Lee Nianzu, and twenty disciples to the middle of the city. The Guozhao hunters disappeared into the dust and debris.

Leader Fu, "We should go and help them."

Leader Hu asked, "Have you dealt with these monsters?"

Leader Fu said, "During the Hero War, we are the Guozhao Hunters backup. We stayed outside of Immortal Valley, and saw one, but we didn't fight."

Leader Yi, "We haven't dealt with these monsters, so we can't help much. It seems that the Guozhao hunters are expert of dealing with these kinds of creatures. We shouldn't steal their merits from them.

Leader Huang said, "We had dealt with these kinds of monsters before; therefore, we will follow the Guozhao hunters to fight these monsters."

Leader Wong said, "We are going to the school."

Just as the six sectors were discussing, they saw streaks of blue light flashing across the pitch-black sky.

Guo Baiyu looked at his apprentices and disciple, "Ah Liang, Ah Kun, use your arrow. Tingfeng, Yaozu uses your icicles." He looked at the disciples. "The rest of you, go help the injured citizens."

"Yes, master."

Guo Baiyu said, "Ah Liang, Ah Kun nailed that monster's tail down." He looked Zheng Tingfeng and Zheng Yaozu. "You two, attack the middle. I... will attach the head."

Tam Liang and Tam Kun quickly ran ahead of the others. They ran through the small gaps between the houses. When they came to the end of the hole where the black giant worm appeared, the long worm's tail was still deep in the ground.

Tam Kun asked, "What do we do? We can't pin his tail to the ground."

Tam Liang shouted, "We have to improvise for our benefit."

Tam Kun, "How?"

Tam Liang, "Nail him with a golden arrows."

Tam Kun smirked, "Good thinking."

Tam Liang and Tam Kun conjured their bow swords and started shooting at the giant black worm.

Huang Hualing ran over with twenty disciples. She shouted, "How can we help you?"

Tam Liang said, "Grab the golden thread."

Huang Hualing shouted, "Everyone grab a gold thread."

The disciples of Guzheng Sector hurriedly grabbed the golden thread waving in front of them. Some male citizens who ran past also grabbed the golden thread. Tam Liang and Tam Kun continued to shoot at the giant worm.

Zheng Tingfeng and Zheng Yaozu flew to the roof. Standing on the two roofs opposite each other, the Zheng brothers took out their talismans and started sending icicles to the giant worm.

The black giant worm stuck its head forward and started to attack Zheng Yaozu and Zheng Tingfeng.

The Tam brothers shouted, "Be careful!"

Huang Hualing looked at the Tam brothers and said, "Go, we got this."

The Tam brothers, "Thank you." They rushed forward quickly, and each shot, an arrow hitting the middle section of the giant worm. They held onto their golden threads tightly and continued to run towards Guo Baiyu.

Zheng Tingfeng and Zheng Yaozu waved their whips, wrapped the midrib of the black giant worm, and flew down from the roof to the street

The Zheng brothers ran towards Guo Baiyu, and multiple golden arrows shot at the head of the black giant worm at the same time. The black giant worm swayed back and forth and slowly fell. Zheng Tingfeng and Zheng Yaozu quickly loosened the magic rope, flew high, and drew their swords. Zheng Tingfeng flew from the left, slashed the worm's neck with his sword, and landed on a roof on the right. Zheng Yaozu immediately swung his sword from the right side of the worm's neck and he landed on the roof on the left house. The head of the giant worm landed on the street thirty feet away from Guo Baiyu.

Guozhao Shaquan, "Third Master, all evacuated."

Fang Yaoting said, "Good." He looked at Guozhao Zhaohui, Guozhao Bolin, Tian Xiang, and Yu Lei. "Shaquan, Bolin, use the net to capture him. Zhaohui, Ah Xian, and Ah Lei, shoot him down with your icicles."

"Yes, third master."

Fang Yaoting looked at the other disciples, "You five stay here, and the rest will send the injured villagers back to the medicine shop for treatment." The five brothers stood beside Fang Yaoting, watching their brothers attack the black worm from all directions. "Look carefully and study their offensive tactics."

"Yes, third master."

Fang Yaoting said, "No matter how strong the enemy is, if we work together, there is no enemy stronger than our combined efforts."

Yang Bao cut his index finger and blood was flowing down. He wiped his blood on his forehead and cast a spell. Marking himself as a target, Yang Bao rushed forward to disperse the giant worm. The huge black giant worm rushed up and chased Yang Bao around. Yang Bao sent four icicles and hit the black giant worm's neck; it got angry and screamed and chased Yang Bao. Yang Bao knew from the behavior of the black worm that the worm started to loose control.

Yang Bao shouted, "Quickly deploy the net!"

Guozhao Shaquan and Guozhao Bolin took out their talisman, Guozhao Shaquan set up the first magic net, quickly jumped onto the roof, and rushed to a higher ground for safety.

A few houses away, Guozhao Bolin put the magic net on the ground, and he also jumped onto the roof.

Yang Bao rushed forward and went straight to the magic net. He flew over the first magic net, and the giant worm's big head stretched forward, trying to bite Yang Bao. Yang Bao jumped over the second magic net, and the black giant worm's head landed on the magic net.

Yang Bao shouted, "Zhaohui now!"

Guozhao Zhaohui jumped high and smashed the four talismans at the black giant worm. He stood on top of the magic net and conjures his icicles and shot it down straight at the black giant worm.

Tian Xiang and Yu Lei began to attack the black giant worm with icicles. The giant black worm twitched, twisted, and turned within the magic circle. After struggling for a while, the black giant worm died.

Not far away, Zhao Renshu looked at Lee Nianzu with a smirk on his face. He said, "Nianzu, you stay here and be my backup with other disciples. I will take care of this."

Lee Nianzu smiled and shook his head, "Second master, be careful."

Zhao Renshu said, "I know. I know." He drew his long sword and went straight to the black giant worm. While flying, Zhao Renshu cast an icicle and shot at the black giant worm. All the icicles hit the giant black worm.

Lee Nianzu shook his head and murmured, "Second Master's childishness has not improved with age."

Zhao Renshu shouted, "Extend!" Zhao Renshu's sword length extended longer. He slashed in the middle of the black giant worm with his sword, splitting the black giant worm in half. He fell to the ground unharmed.

The two halves of the black giant worm slowly pressed on the roof of the nearby houses.

"Second Master, it's amazing."

"He killed that big worm with one move."

"No wonder second master is still the strongest hunter known to everyone."

Lee Nianzu cleared his throat, and the juniors stopped talking. Lee Nianzu looked at his juniors and said, "Remember to be restrained. If other hunters hear you, they may look down on us."

"Yes, Lee senior brother."

Lee Nianzu said, "Let's go see if anyone needs our help."

"Yes, Lee senior brother."

The juniors quickly dissipated in the destroyed houses.

Zhao Renshu came from a distance. Lee Nianzu approached, "Second Master, are you injured?"

Zhao Renshu smiled bitterly, "No..."

On the left and right were Guo Baiyu, Fang Yaoting, the Guozhao apprentices, disciples, and the Guzheng Sector.

Guo Baiyu said, "Let's go back to the medicine shop first." Everyone started to leave, but Zhao Renshu grabbed Guo Baiyu's left arm. "What's wrong?" He looked at Zhao Renshu.

Zhao Renshu leaned over to Guo Baiyu and murmured, "I seem to have hurt my back."

Guo Baiyu sneered, "Stop showing off, you want me to carry you?"

Zhao Renshu, "No way. Just walk slowly beside me."

Guo Baiyu and Zhao Renshu followed the others and slowly walked towards the medicine shop.
