Chapter 540: Chapter 276: Summoning the New Red Bull_2

Niu Niu nodded in satisfaction.

Then, tilting its bull head with a haughty air, it continued to carry Jiang Shouzhong on its back in search of other survivors.

As they passed by a few people, the Cow Demon suddenly lifted one of its back hooves and squirted a stream of milk onto the face of the little boy who had first bowed in thanks, indicating its approval and appreciation for the youngster.

The little boy dared not make a sound.

It wasn’t until after the Cow Demon had left that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

To their amazement, they discovered that the burns on the little boy’s skin were gradually healing.

...

With Niu Niu’s help, Jiang Shouzhong successfully rescued about twenty more survivors and killed five guards.

Perhaps due to good fortune, Jiang Shouzhong soon encountered Shen.

At that time, Shen had just led two subordinates out of the residence of an official from Qingzhou, having killed all the members of the family hiding in an underground passage, and turned the corner to meet Jiang Shouzhong riding the dairy cow.

Upon seeing Jiang Shouzhong on the cow’s back, Shen paused for a moment, then his face lit up with ecstatic joy.

Before the massacre had even begun, the first task given to him by Master Zuo was to find Jiang Mo as quickly as possible and execute him.

Shen had been worrying about this.

After all, Jiang Mo had been hiding so well these past days, leaving no trace to be found.

He hadn’t expected the man to come out in the open himself.

"Stop him!"

Shen immediately commanded the two guards by his side.

The two guards moved behind Jiang Shouzhong to block his retreat, raising the long knives in their hands.

Shen sneered, "Master Jiang seems to be in good spirits, going for a stroll on a cow through the streets. Do you think just because you were lucky to survive, you can return to the Capital just like that?"

Jiang Shouzhong stroked the bull’s horns and said with a light smile, "Shen, you really make a good dog."

Upon hearing the word "dog," Shen was burning with anger.

He remembered the time when Ran Qingchen had called him a dog.

I dared not kill Ran Qingchen, but would I dare not kill you, a mere agent? Besides, this time it’s the court that wants you dead!

"Jiang Mo, last time you escaped from me because you were lucky. This time... I won’t give you a second chance."

Shen’s wrists flickered, and a pair of dazzling golden rings appeared in his palms.

It was the same Magic Artifact he had used in the previous fight.

The golden rings emanated a chilling light, and with a light tap from Shen, they emitted a piercing ringing sound.

"I’ll leave it to you, Niu Niu."

Jiang Shouzhong couldn’t even be bothered to make a move, lying comfortably on the cow’s back to heal his wounds.

"Don’t let him get away!"

Seeing Jiang Shouzhong’s actions, Shen thought he was trying to escape on the cow and promptly reminded his subordinates.

But just as he finished speaking, he saw the golden cow charging towards him.

The cow’s body left a trail of afterimages, with immense pressure that seemed to compress the surrounding air to the extreme.

"This cow... it’s a demon!"

Shen’s face changed color, and he hurriedly swung the twin rings, aiming to smash them onto the cow’s head.

However, how could he, someone of the Heaven Desolation Boundary, be a match for a Sanctum Ascension beast demon? The rings hit the cow’s head as if they were a bug trying to shake a tree, and he was instead repelled by the tremendous force, sent flying through the air.

Shen was then catapulted upward, his belly pierced by the bull’s horns; amidst the blurry flesh and blood, his intestines spilled out.

Thump!

Shen fell heavily to the ground.

He convulsed, instinctively trying to push his protruding intestines back in, his face filled with shock and terror.

The Cow Demon snorted heavily, slowly approaching him.

Shen’s face was ghastly white, staring in horror at the menacing Cow Demon. His lips trembled, unable to utter a word.

The remaining two subordinates were petrified, looking at the enraged cow, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"Shen, in your next life, don’t be a dog."

Jiang Shouzhong waved his hand.

In Shen’s horrified and desperate gaze, the cow’s hoof was raised high, then stamped down heavily.

Splat!

The head burst open like a watermelon.

The remaining two subordinates tried to run away, but as soon as they turned around, they were pierced through the throat by the flying sword swung by Jiang Shouzhong.

Seeing his prey stolen, Niu Niu immediately became disgruntled and started to bounce on the spot.

It had originally wanted to rush over and give those two a couple of butts with its horns.

Jiang Shouzhong patted its head to appease it, thinking that Niu Niu indeed had quite a temper.

But on second thought, there’s truth to the everyday sayings about someone having a "bull temper."

Having found nothing worth taking from the bodies, Jiang Shouzhong settled for picking up the golden rings.

He had intended to pocket the rings, but seeing Niu Niu still in a huff, he simply used his knife to cut slits in them and hung them on the cow’s nostrils as nose rings.

At first glance, Ms. Niu seemed to transform into a spirited cow sister wearing nose rings.

Jiang Shouzhong nodded in satisfaction and continued riding Niu Niu forward.

The nose rings jingled pleasantly as they rode along.

...

About half an hour later, Jiang Shouzhong arrived at the shore of Mingyang Lake.

It was said to be a shelter, very similar to the hidden chambers beneath Capital’s Huailan Lake, only much smaller in scale.

There were soldiers guarding the entrance.

Other soldiers were busily organizing the survivors in an orderly fashion.

There were quite a few Jianghu figures among them; Jiang Shouzhong even recognized some disciples from the Famous Sword Villa. However, he didn’t see the wheelchair-bound second young master or the aging master of Famous Sword Mountain.

The guards were a bit dumbfounded upon seeing Jiang Shouzhong on his golden cow, and they instinctively stepped forward to stop him.

"Braised noodles!"

The familiar voice of Mr. Li came forth.

Li Nanshuang ran up to Jiang Shouzhong, exclaiming with delight, "I knew you wouldn’t have any trouble."

The normally poised Li Nanshuang appeared quite disheveled. Her fair face was smudged with soot, but her eyes remained as bright and spirited as ever, shining brilliantly.

She curiously stroked the cow’s head, "Where did this cow come from, is it a demon?"

Jiang Shouzhong hopped off the cow and, looking at the soldiers around, asked, "Are these men under the command of Mr. Zhao of Shan Zi Camp?"
