Yang Xue shivered as she felt the cold air around her intensify.
Immediately afterwards, she heard the whimpering sounds not far away, as well as the noises of weapons being swung, which made her feel extremely oppressed.
"Whimper..."
"Help... hel..."
"Clang... clang..."
"Hurry up! Leave right after you're done burying them!"
Following the source of the sounds, Yang Xue flew above the scene. Looking at what was happening below, her blood seemed to reverse its flow, and she was filled with shock and anger!
"Stop!" In a fit of extreme rage, Yang Xue shouted and dashed straight in front of them!
There were several sneaky men with half - covered faces. Each of them held a shovel and was dealing with the corpses!
No, there were still people alive!
"Who?" Seeing the woman who suddenly appeared in front of them, they instinctively took a step back.
"How daring! You've come right into our hands." The leading man saw Yang Xue's face clearly. "Interesting. Girl, are you here to amuse us guys?"
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha~ This chick is really pretty. Pressing her under us must be better than being a living immortal!"
"Um... help..." The person buried in the soil let out a weak cry for help. If it weren't for Yang Xue's higher cultivation now, she might not have heard it.
Yang Xue's blood turned ice - cold. She had never been this angry before. She tightly grasped the whip in her hand, and her brain felt numb from the rush of blood!
Worse than animals!
"Snap!" She whipped out her whip, flinging the man beside the person crying for help directly onto a tree. He died on the spot!
Thanks to her much higher cultivation now, Yang Xue had a powerful empathic ability. Even though she was three or four steps away, she instantly learned from the consciousness of the woman crying for help what she had suffered!
These men were burying the women who had been transported from a neighboring country!
They were originally women from the Women's Country, but after being abducted there, they were oppressed and humiliated. Among them, there were also ordinary women from the neighboring country.
Some of them were convicted and reduced to prostitutes, while others were deceived into becoming tools for men's pleasure. Having contracted diseases and being on the verge of death, they were all transported here...
This mass grave was located at the junction of three countries. It was far from the seat of power, and no one bothered to or would take care of it. So these inhumane scumbags were burying them alive here!
Since they were no longer useful, these men didn't bother to wait for them to die. They brought them here to avoid wasting food and water.
"Big brother's dead! Kill her!" Everything happened so fast. The other men watched their comrade die on the spot. After a moment of stunnedness, they came to their senses.
"Where did this wild woman come from? How dare she kill my brother! Let her taste our power!" The leading man spat on the ground, rolled up his sleeves, and walked towards Yang Xue!
Yang Xue's eyes were red with anger. If it weren't for the fact that the woman needed treatment, she wouldn't even want to touch these beasts!
"Get out of the way!" Yang Xue whipped out her whip again and flashed in front of the woman on the ground. She pulled the woman out of the soil pile!
"Ah!"
"Ghost!"
Seeing another comrade being flung away and dying in an instant, the remaining two men were so frightened that they screamed.
"Run!" One of them shouted and ran into the forest.
"Want to run!" Yang Xue sneered. "Come back!"
This time, she whipped out her whip and tied the two men up directly.
Then, she squatted down to treat the dying woman.
But her fingers were trembling. She didn't dare to touch the woman's body to heal her with spiritual energy.
There was not a single piece of good flesh on this woman's body, and several of her bones were broken. Although she was still alive, she was on her last breath.
"No..." She weakly uttered a word. She opened one eye feebly and saw the woman in front of her crying. She managed to pull out a smile. "Thank you..."
"Don't move. I'll treat you..." As she spoke, Yang Xue choked with sobs.
"Don't... save me..."
"Take... revenge... for me..."
She didn't want to live anymore.
The reason she cried for help before was just out of unwillingness. She was unwilling to die like this.
They had come into this world, endured a life like hell, and in the end, they were going to die in such a way. She was not willing!
These men had brought them here in the middle of the night and had defiled their bodies before they died...
"No... don't..." Yang Xue cried out. "You still have a chance... a chance to live."
No matter what they had experienced, once they were dead, it was all over. There was truly nothing left, and there was no way to reverse the situation.
"No... thank you..." She gently raised her hand. Her trembling fingers tried to touch Yang Xue's cheek but soon fell to the ground.
Yang Xue was at a loss. Looking at her swollen, festered fingers, she sobbed uncontrollably.
"Kill them!" From the corner of her eye, she saw the two struggling men. Her eyes turned fierce. The endless killing intent made her eyes start to lose focus!
"Okay!" Yang Xue nodded vigorously. "I'll kill them to avenge you!"
She quickly got up and walked in front of the tied - up men!
"Do you have anything to say?" Looking down at these men who had once committed all kinds of evils and lost all their conscience, Yang Xue took a deep breath and said calmly.
"I'll kill you!"
"Stinking woman..."
Before they could say anything else, Yang Xue raised her hand. The whip that tied them lifted them into the air. With the blessing of magic power, the whip tightened more and more!
"Kill... kill!" The woman on the ground struggled hard and let out a low growl!
"..." Yang Xue's heart was like being stabbed by a knife. It must have taken an extremely strong willpower for her to hold on until now.
Since that was the case, they shouldn't be let off easily.
"Puff!" She waved her hand in the air a few times, and several wounds were cut on the tied - up men's bodies. Blood slowly oozed out!
"Ah!" Seeing them getting their just deserts, the woman lying on the ground had a moment of lucidity before death and let out a roar.
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Since she wanted to see it, Yang Xue would fulfill her last wish!
Yang Xue closed her eyes and slowly cut at their flesh with a knife, as if she was performing a slow and cruel execution.
She had never imagined that there could be such tragedies in the world, and she had encountered them so easily.
As long as she came to this kind of place to cultivate, she would surely encounter unimaginable human tragedies!
Her whole body ached so much that she could hardly breathe. She couldn't imagine that she had come here to witness all these just because she wanted to become stronger!
Originally, she thought that there might be some corpses of those who had died miserably on the mass grave. All she needed to do was sew up their wounds and bury them properly...
"Thank you." Just as Yang Xue was kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly, a woman's voice slowly drifted into her ear.
She looked up and saw several emaciated women floating in front of her. They were all looking at her.
"Thank you, girl, for avenging us."
It turned out that the woman had died, and the souls of the women who had been transported here with her had appeared together.
There was a faint smile on their faces, and they would occasionally look at the men who were being slowly executed.
"It's too easy on them," said the girl who had just died. Her resentment was a bit weaker since she had seen this scene before she died. Pointing at the souls of the men who had died instantly before, she said, "Let their souls be punished too."
Yang Xue wiped away her tears. Amidst the pig - like howls in the distance, she summoned the White - Bone Demon's whip!
