Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1466 - 464: Terrifying Cold Wave, Life Hanging by a Thread, the Ruthless One and His Gift, Rapid Progress 5

"It really seems like it. Those three rodents, there’s no reason they should have followed us this far. Big brother, let’s listen to him and extinguish the yellow candle first!"

"What does he want to do?"

Su Jing followed the suggestion of the third brother Su Zhi and extinguished the yellow candle.

The entire cave suddenly plunged into darkness, but with Cold Resistance Level cultivation, although vision was limited, the glint of swords and blades inside the cave could still be faintly seen.

The murder of Cai Shiyan was a scene that those at the cave entrance clearly noticed.

So, when they saw the black-clothed youth rushing over, they immediately scattered in all directions, clearly worried about a sneak attack.

But as they scattered like this, the path for those three rodents towards the cave entrance was completely opened.

Bang......

The dry branches at the cave entrance were suddenly broken open, and several gusts of cold wind rushed in instantly.

"Fools!"

Before the cave entrance was broken open, the black-clothed youth had already cursed with anger, then quickly took out a segment of a yellow candle from his bosom and lit it, holding the yellow candle in his left hand and the narrow blade in his right. With a step like an arrow, he dashed towards the face of the intermediate rodent.

Crack......

The black-clothed youth was extremely powerful, and his hunting experience was obviously rich. He charged to the face of the rodent, dodged the red light shooting from its eyes with a side step, then backhanded to stab the rodent straight through its eye.

He was incredibly fast. After dealing with the intermediate rodent, he saw the other two low-level rodents trying to escape. He chased them directly outside the cave, taking no more than three or four breaths to kill the two heavily injured rodents.

He swiftly threw all three rodent corpses back into the cave, then quickly sealed the entrance before turning to look inside the cave.

Inside the cave now, there were only eight people left, with two candle flames.

The three Su brothers crowded under one candlelight; the remaining Cai Shiqin and three others gathered beside Su Xing’er, who was holding a yellow candle.

The cold wind that blew in just now was so fast that three people didn’t have time to squeeze into the candlelight.

Of course, not all of them couldn’t make it in time.

Not far from the three Su brothers, the black-clothed youth saw two people frozen into ice sculptures, and a hint of a smile appeared on his face.

Clearly, the two originally had a chance to run into the candlelight, but the three Su brothers seemed to have backed away with the candle flames.

When the black-clothed youth observed everyone, their expressions instantly became vigilant, especially Cai Shiqin and the ones beside her, Cai Qifeng, Cai Yuwan, and another of the Cai family. The four glanced out of the corner of their eyes at Cai Shiyan’s frozen corpse on the ground and felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Dressed like someone from Chen Cang..."

Cai Shiqin was in utter despair at this moment. The black-clothed youth’s outfit was clearly Chen Cang style, and from his action of killing Cai Shiyan, she knew she might not have luck on her side.

Swoosh......

As Cai Shiqin expected, after just a moment of pause, the black-clothed youth charged towards her with his blade.

The cave had been resealed by now, and though the cold wind still had an influence, there was no longer a need to stay near the candlelight, so Cai Shiqin and Cai Qifeng quickly scattered away.

"May I ask which family of Chen Cang you belong to? We have no grievances..."

Thud...

Cai Shiqin tried to inquire about the youth’s identity, but before he could finish, the black-clothed youth had already slain Cai Qifeng and another of the Cai family members.

Only Cai Yuwan remained, and she was scared out of her wits, crying and begging, "Spare me, spare me, please, don’t kill me, don’t kill me..."

Cai Yuwan was pleading for her life while running, but she was soon left behind by Cai Shiqin. Seeing the black-clothed youth’s sword coming at her, she cried out in horror to Cai Shiqin, "Commandery Princess, save me, Commandery Princess!"

Thud......

The black-clothed youth showed no pity. Upon catching up with Cai Yuwan, his long blade sliced across her neck, blood splattering three feet high. Cai Yuwan, in her best years, died with a face of terror and cruelty.

Clank......

The remaining five people in the cave were instantly stricken with terror, especially Cai Shiqin. Seeing the black-clothed youth approaching with a yellow candle, she was in utter panic.

"You......"

At the critical moment, it was Su Xing’er who stepped in front of her.

Su Xing’er’s emotions were evidently panicked. After stepping forward, she only managed to say "You" before stopping, pointing at the yellow candle in the youth’s hand, wanting to say something but too scared to continue.

The black-clothed youth seemed to see what Su Xing’er wanted to say. He shook his head and started, "You’re all from Cai Qiu here for the trial, right?"

No ill intentions?

Speech has tone. When the black-clothed youth spoke, Su Xing’er noticed no hint of malice in his tone, and her emotions calmed significantly.

"That’s right, I’m Su Xing’er; those three are my brothers, and this is..."

Upon mentioning Cai Shiqin’s name, Su Xing’er visibly hesitated.

But the black-clothed youth saw through her intention immediately, smiled, and said, "No need for that. I heard everything you said when you entered the cave. She’s called Cai Shiqin, someone called her Commandery Princess; I know everything..."

Hiding behind Su Xing’er, Cai Shiqin was even more despairing.

"Rest assured! I won’t kill her."

However, the black-clothed youth’s next words left Su Xing’er and her three brothers bewildered.

This black-clothed youth isn’t he the genius from Chen Cang who came specifically to kill the Cai family members?

"These seven were just about to take the yellow candle from you. I killed them; you should be thanking me..."
