From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master-Chapter 355: Hidden Path
Whoosh.
Before the men could swing their swords, a twirling wind ripped through their bodies.
And their bodies splattered into pieces.
When more of the men came at Ho Ming, he thrust his sword onto the ground.
Boom!
Explosions ensued and the men that came streaming in Ho Ming's direction had their legs blown off.
"Argh."
Soon, there were cries of pain that howled in the wooden fortress.
"You heard that?" Soldiers that were resting in the army campsite heard the commotions and asked.
"They must be having a party again. These robbers just don't have any shame." Another soldier replied.
Both nodded as they were used to the robbers celebrating after killing the hostages and keeping the ransom.
Although the soldiers didn't like the robbers, they had to tolerate them as the Lord Marquis of Zhen Nan got part of his funding from them.
It was crucial to have the funds for the rebellion and they had better not screw it up for the Lord.
Robbers that went at Lin Fan weren't faring any better.
"Argh." A man cried out in pain and with a boom his head turned into a red mist.
Lin Fan used his punch and was easily overpowering these robbers.
The leader of the men looked back and saw Lin Fan getting closer.
He quickly turned and tried to get out of the gate.
Ten more meters.

When he got out and let the soldiers know what was happening, then he could be saved.
The gate was so near, just right before his eyes.
Boom.
He heard a boom erupt from behind and the next moment, he couldn't feel his legs anymore.
The momentum of his running didn't stop, and he fell forward, landing his face on the ground.
"Argh!" Pain could be felt at his knees, and he tried to stand up.
To his horror, his legs were blown off by Lin Fan's punches.
"Come and stop him!" The leader of the men shouted.
Lin Fan ignored the men coming at him with their swords.
When they swung their swords at Lin Fan, they felt a force coming back onto them.
Clank.
Their swords dropped onto the ground.
The men looked at each other, in fear of what they were dealing with.
No one dared to make another move.
Lin Fan walked up to the leader of the men, and he looked down at him.
He smirked and then pulled back his fist.
"I guess you will have to wait for us in hell instead."
The leader of the men tried to beg for mercy, "Please let me go. It was the Lord Marquis's instruction!"
Who were these people!
They had been abducting merchants and every time they succeeded in killing whoever was sent to rescue these merchants.
Some were hired hands, and some even boasted to be cultivators.
His men and him who were Qi Concentration Level were able to finish them off every single time.
But this time, the two were really something.
They were able to kill with one strike!
As the leader of the men thought through what had happened, he cursed at his bad luck.
Lin Fan was not interested in hearing the leader's begging.
Boom!
When he punched at the man's head, a sonic boom could be heard.
Splatter.
The leader's head was smashed into a red mist immediately.
Those men that were standing nearby dropped onto the ground as they saw Lin Fan turning his attention to them.
Lin Fan took out his spear and thrust it at them with the Dragon's Roar Thousand Thrust.
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
Slicing waves shot at these men and they were sliced in half.
When he was done, Lin Fan turned back and checked on Ho Ming.
Ho Ming had also killed all the men and rescued Huang Shi and Lee Long's relatives.
They were the only ones left standing in the wooden fortress.
"Come, let's get going." Lin Fan waved at Ho Ming and said.
They had to get out of the wooden fortress quickly.
Now that there were relatives of Huang Shi and Lee Long to take care of, it wasn't such an easy task anymore.
Their relatives were now weak and could slow down their progress.
Lin Fan pulled their horses over and let the relatives get onto the horses.
Huang Shi and Lee Long would also ride on horses while Lin Fan would run in front of them.
Ho Ming on the other hand would follow them from behind.
This would allow Lin Fan and Ho Ming to protect them in case of attacks.
Creak.
When Lin Fan opened the gate of the wooden fortress, he saw a few torches with their orange flames coming toward the wooden fortress.
It must have been soldiers on patrol coming to check on the wooden fortress, Lin Fan thought.
He turned back and waved at the others to follow him.
From his memory, Lin Fan turned to the left of the wooden fortress, into the path that the innkeeper had given him.
They started descending into the rocky path and disappeared into the dark night.
...
The soldiers nearly fainted when they saw the scene in the wooden fortress.
Blood, bodies, pieces of flesh and limbs were lying on the ground all over the wooden fortress.
"What... What happened here?" The patrol team leader turned and looked at the other soldiers.
He wanted to make sure he wasn't the only one who saw it.
The other soldiers were as dumbfounded as the patrol team leader.
"Did they get killed by some demonic beasts?" One of the soldiers asked.
The patrol team leader frowned and said, "You go and check if the wounds are bite marks."
He pointed at one of the soldiers.
The soldier swallowed a mouthful of saliva and pointed to himself, "Me...me?"
"Yes, go and check." The patrol team leader gave the soldier a kick and the soldier got into the wooden fortress.
The stench and the sight made the soldier vomit.
"Hurry up and check!" The patrol team leader shouted from behind.
The soldier pinched his nose with one hand and got close to a body.
He got to the ground and checked on the body's wound.
There were no bite marks.
These robbers didn't die from a demonic beast attack.
He ran back and reported what he saw to the patrol team leader.
The patrol team leader frowned at what he heard.
"Didn't they kidnap some merchants recently?" Another soldier asked.
