I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 885 - 540 Slaughter
Chapter 885 -540 Slaughter
Taya’s figure flashed through like a swift wind, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The sun blazed like fire, yellow sand filling the sky. Taya’s nimble silhouette held a black longsword, its blade glittering with a cold light, as if it could cut through anything.
Her eyes were resolute, filled with anger, facing two Golden Rank Warriors without a hint of fear.
Though those two desert bandits at the gold early stage were also quite strong, they paled in comparison to Taya.
Upon spotting Taya’s arrival, they immediately abandoned their pursuit of others and charged towards her.
Taya showed no mercy, and the desert bandit before her clutched his neck and lost his life in an instant.
Others were even less fortunate, many bandits were turned into mush under Taya’s attack.
In just moments, Taya had already slain over a dozen desert bandits, her sword blade continuously dripping with fresh blood.
Clang!
At this moment, the two Golden Rank Warriors among the desert bandits approached Taya, enraged and attacking her.
They swung their longswords and long spears, attempting to defeat Taya together.
Although furious that Taya had killed their men, the aura she unleashed made them realize that individually, they stood no chance against Taya.
A fierce wind exploded from their clashes, sweeping sand and dust around.
The guards among the caravan were somewhat alarmed, while the traders beside them desperately tried to soothe them, casting reverent glances towards the red figure on the battlefield.
No wonder she’s Lord Lis’s companion; so beautiful, yet so powerful.
Lis didn’t intervene, instead, he leisurely sat atop a camel.
He had already gauged the strength of the two Golden Warriors; they were nothing special.
Even combined, they wouldn’t be a match for Taya.
After all, he had sparred with Taya numerous times; without spells, he stood no chance in close combat.
Even skills from assassins, hunters, and other professions were quickly countered by Taya.
Taya’s combat sense was extraordinarily sharp, nearly reaching a level where she could be warned by her spiritual sense; perhaps this was the unique talent of the Blood Rose Princess.
However, Taya’s sensitivity to spells and other skills was much weaker, though still stronger than those of her rank.
Moreover, wasn’t Lis still watching over her?
This was why Lis hadn’t stopped Taya; he despised this slaughter of the weak.
Even without Taya, he would have acted.
Facing Taya’s attacks, the two Golden Rank desert bandits weren’t as at ease as Lis.
It was almost dangerously perilous for them.
Who would have thought such a seemingly delicate young girl could be so powerful.
The two had known each other for a long time and cooperated well, yet under Taya’s barrage, they were continuously forced back, unable to strike back.
Furthermore, they felt Taya’s sword growing heavier, carrying increasingly terrifying power, even their Golden Rank Warrior bodies felt numb.
Taya’s attacks were fiercely sharp, each slash accompanied by a whistling wind, her sword tip revealing its edge.
Her movements were agile and forceful, every swing of her sword seemed to slice through the air, leaving traces of black sword shadows.
The two warriors were forced to retreat repeatedly, their bodies bearing numerous injuries.
To onlookers, the red-haired female warrior was like a rose blossoming under the blazing sun, beautiful yet dangerous.
Her attacks were filled with both strength and grace, mesmerizing those who watched.
Lis retrieved his admiring gaze, slightly furrowing his brow.
There was something wrong with these desert bandits!
This was the central area of the Western Desert; even moving towards the south, there was still quite a distance.
This wasn’t an area where desert bandits should be active!
Among the numerous desert bandits in the Western Desert, the strongest was the Legendary Hunter known as the King of Sand Thieves, further, there were many scattered desert bandits.
Desert bandits emerged for the same reasons as pirates; vast yet uncontrolled regions without powerful forces to sweep them clean and maintain stability, naturally led to such situations.
However, clearing out desert thieves was easier said than done. Due to the unique geographical conditions of the Western Desert, aside from the hospitable land near the coast, people lived around desert oases.
Thus, they existed mainly in tribes and city-states, unable to form a unified kingdom.
Various forces varied in strength, each minding their own business, making it impossible to organize a unified attack on desert bandits.
Moreover, some desert bandits were under the covert support of those very forces, being the result of prolonged indulgence.
Nobody would conduct a thief-calling trial.
Even the strongest extraordinary organization in the desert, the War God Church, had no such power, controlling only their oasis territories and leaving others to their own devices.
The strength of desert bandits varied greatly, but despite seeing the leaders getting beaten down by Taya, a desert bandit crew with two Golden Rank experts was already quite formidable.
This desert bandit crew shouldn’t be here unless their goal was not to rob passing caravans but something else.
Just then, Blais approached Lis’s camel, whispering:
“Lord Lis, I just had someone bring back a person being chased by these desert bandits.”
