The scorpions that emerged from the hole in the ground were ready to attack. They revealed a bloodthirsty and crazy smile.

After receiving the order, they instantly moved their eight sharp claws and charged toward the surrounding human experts.

These scorpions were tall. Their legs were long and their speed was extremely fast. They even had two huge pincers supporting their attacks. Behind them, there were scorpion stingers. On top of that, they held their weapons with both hands. Each attack was launched from three sides, making them extremely difficult to be dealt with.

With just a charge, they arrived in front of the group.

These warriors were all elites of the Scorpion race. They were proficient in battle tactics and full of fighting spirit. They cooperated well with each other. With the cooperation of three to five of them, their lethality was extremely high.

In almost an instant, several human experts died in the encirclement. Some of them were even torn into pieces. It was extremely cruel.

At this moment, more than a dozen Scorpion warriors charged at Li Xiang’s team. They looked ferocious and full of killing intent.

They formed a formation and had a clear plan of attack and retreat. It seemed that both sides had about the same number of people, but the threat they posed was not to be underestimated.

Li Xiang turned a blind eye to this and did not even move.

“I’ll do it!”

“I’ll do it!”

Alice and Alicia behind him spoke almost at the same time. Then, they looked at each other and attacked almost at the same time.

Although the Scorpion warriors were very strong, they might not even be a match for the soldiers of the Kingdom of Dawn, let alone two top-rank heroes.

Li Xiang had no interest in these weak warriors at all. Sending out a hero would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

The two of them had no intention of rushing out but directly attacked from behind Li Xiang.

“Swoosh!”

A sword light and a scarlet whip shadow flashed behind Li Xiang.

In an instant, about a dozen Scorpion warriors charging over with murderous intent were swept by the sword light and whip shadow.

“Plop! Plop!”

In an instant, the Scorpion warriors charging over were directly cut into two. Then, they were burned by a scarlet flame and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.

Ye Qiu, who had a grave expression on his face, was prepared to fight to the death. Unexpectedly, the enemies were turned into ashes in the blink of an eye, leaving him unable to react for a long time.

The action was too clean and neat. The other Scorpion soldiers couldn’t even believe their own eyes.

Even though this scene happened very quickly, it was too eye-catching. Many human experts and the Scorpion race noticed this.

The Scorpion race leader’s gaze focused and finally landed on Li Xiang and the others.

However, no one noticed that the blood of those who had died in battle was strangely converging towards the guillotine at this moment.

After the blood converged near the guillotine, it seemed to have spirituality as it quickly spread upwards and dyed the entire guillotine blood red. Finally, the blood gathered at the center and converged towards the Ghost Head Blade.

Almost the instant the blood touched the Ghost Head Blade, the ghost head on the blade’s hilt squirmed and revealed a terrifying smile.

“Ga ga…”

A strange laughter came from the Ghost Head Blade. It was sudden and terrifying. In this battlefield where they were fighting, it was as if there was no obstruction at all. It pierced into everyone’s ears, causing fear to rise from the bottom of their hearts.

That feeling, when an ordinary person suddenly encountered a malicious ghost, made their hair stand on end.

“What the hell is that? Where did the laughter come from?”

“This laughter is too f*cking ugly! It’s so terrifying!”

“What strange laughter! I feel like my entire body is becoming stiff. My blood is about to freeze. It’s as if I’m in the Netherworld.”

The human transcendents’ expressions changed drastically. They felt an ominous aura spreading rapidly as if it was going to devour everyone.

The spiritual senses of the Scorpion warriors were not weak. Naturally, they also sensed that something was wrong. They retreated and became vigilant.

The intense battle instantly froze. All the fighting stopped.

Everyone’s eyes followed the voice and finally landed on the guillotine.

When they saw it, their eyes revealed a look of fear.

“F*ck! Why is there blood on the guillotine? How did the blood get up there? Who fought there? Where are the corpses?”

“Something’s wrong. Look, the corpses of the dead have all been drained of their blood and turned into dried corpses. Their blood was absorbed by the guillotine. However, this bit of blood isn’t enough to cover the entire guillotine!”

“Didn’t you notice that the ghost head on the Ghost Head Blade is a little different? It seems to be laughing. The laughter should be coming from the ghost head. It’s so strange. This is definitely a terrifying weapon. If you want to pull it out, you need to use living beings as sacrifices and blood as a lure!”

“The smell of blood is too strong. It’s impossible for those who just died to emit it. It can only come from the guillotine and the Ghost Head Blade.”

Everyone was stunned by the sudden change at the guillotine. An ominous feeling grew in everyone’s hearts. It was as if death was approaching and countless spirits were summoning them.

“What a terrifying baleful aura. I’ve never seen such a baleful aura. It’s unheard of! It’s so terrifying!” Fear flashed through Ye Qiu’s eyes and his heart began to beat faster.

“Hmph! A bunch of cowardly humans! Since you like fighting so much, you should be offered to our clan leader as a sacrifice to the God of Demon!”

Not only was the Scorpion warrior not afraid, but he also rushed up to the guillotine in excitement.

“Clink clink clink…”

However, just as this Scorpion warrior stepped onto the guillotine, everyone heard the sound of chains moving. Then, blood-colored chains drilled out of the guillotine at lightning speed and easily tied up the warrior.

This kind of binding was not simple. It included his arms, his eight sharp claws, and his scorpion tail. They were all tied up by blood-colored chains. He could not move at all.

“Decapitation!”

An inexplicable loud voice suddenly appeared above the guillotine.

“Clang!”

As soon as the voice fell, the Ghost Head Blade that had been stuck on the guillotine flew up and appeared behind the Scorpion warrior. The blade flashed and fell instantly.

Hot blood instantly gushed out from his neck. After shooting three meters, it splashed onto the guillotine.

“Dong!”

After the Scorpion warrior’s head fell onto the guillotine, a muffled sound was heard. Then, it was strangely swept up by a blood light and disappeared.

Almost at the same time, the chains made a clattering sound. The body of the warrior that had been tied up was also released and fell onto the guillotine.

After that, the blood in his body was extracted, and his flesh and blood were all melted. In just a breath, he had turned into a headless skeleton.

Finally, an invisible force swept over. The broken skeleton flew up, falling from the cliff and into the abyss where millions of bones were gathered.
