Of course, those girls in the barrack would not ask Chu Yunsheng, this old man, to wash their clothes. Although it was the dark age and orders and morals had already collapsed outside the castle, the people inside the castle still wanted to maintain some basic orders and moral principles. After all, men and women were still different.

There had been a shortage of fuels in the yellow mountain area for quite some time, so the supplies like gasoline would have to be given to the armor division first. That was why even those horsewomen also needed to use the dead tree branches to cook meals.

Every day when the hazy shimmer was about to disappear from the sky, a group of refugees would appear at the entrance of the castle to deliver woods in exchange for a small amount of food.

And Chu Yunsheng’s job was to re-process those branches, splitting them into small pieces so that it would be easy to use. In addition to that, he also needed to make charcoal for those upper-class women to keep their heatings running.

It was not a heavy job, but it was not an easy task either. In terms of preparing the meal, they would not give it to a person who had just come to the castle. There were many new kinds of toxins appearing around the world every day, who knows if Chu Yunsheng was sent to the castle by the castle of raging fire or not, so they had someone they trusted to prepare the meal in the barrack.

But it didn’t take Chu Yunsheng long to get to know his two new “colleagues”. One of them was his “subordinate”, a young man whose name was Xiao Sha, who was responsible for delivering the wood to the barrack. Another one was his superior auntie Wang, who was responsible for preparing the meal. Although they had different tasks, they were all managed by that Mammy Sun woman.

Chu Yunsheng didn’t know whether it was the thing that happened at the entrance of the barrack that made the Mommy Sun feel embarrassed or not, she would always cause trouble for him. If it weren’t for the fact that Xu Qingshu was the person who brought him in, it might’ve been even worse.

Luckily, auntie Wang and Xiao Sha were much more friendly. Both of them often told Chu Yunsheng that it was not a big deal, and he needed to endure it, it would be over soon and it wasn’t easy to get a job in the barrack, so don’t waste the opportunity.

However, they didn’t know that if it were not for the fact that Chu Yunsheng wanted to leave the yellow mountain area as soon as possible, he wouldn’t have tolerated this at all. Of course, they also wouldn’t know that the person that everyone in the castle was desperately looking for was currently cutting woods in their barrack!

The insects killed auntie Wang’s husband and son at the beginning of the apocalypse. Fortunately, she was found by her niece when she was almost dead. Since then, she had been working in the castle.

She was a very sympathetic person. When Yuan Qiyang told her what had happened to him, it made her break into tears. Later that night, she also secretly gave Yuan Qiyang an extra piece of meat, and since then, whenever she looked at Yuan Qiyang, she would not be able to help herself but remember her dead son.

Several days passed very quickly in the castle. However, Auntie Wang’s sympathy towards Yuan Qiyang didn’t reduce any. But it was good news to Chu Yunsheng, at least, the kid would be looked after by someone when he was not around.

He took the advantages of the dark night, and spent several days sneaking around the castle to check the area where the candidate was imprisoned. Now that he was familiar with the area, all he needed to do was to wait for the next time when the divine realm was opened, then he would use that opportunity to save the candidate.

……..

The castle was unusually quiet the night the divine realm was opened, if it were not for the fact that Chu Yunsheng could still feel the energy’s fluctuations inside the castle, he would’ve definitely thought that the castle didn’t set up any defense.

However, he felt something was very strange. Because he could feel that there were a lot of powerful Skywalkers hiding in the dark corners of the castle, and it seemed like they were waiting for something.

Chu Yunsheng didn’t close the door fully at night. With the help of the silhouette in the mirror, he got out of the divine realm very quickly. But just when he “woke up” he heard some noises coming from outside.

Suddenly, several signal flares were fired into the sky from the center of the castle.

Immediately, the whole castle was filled with the sounds of people shouting and fighting!

Chu Yunsheng was shocked, just when he was about to close the door, he saw Xiao Sha running towards his room breathlessly.

“Grandpa Yuan, don’t leave your room under any circumstances, the people from the castle of raging fire have broken into our castle and they are killing everyone!” He said hurriedly.

“How many?” Chu Yunsheng instinctively asked, then he immediately regretted it. This was not something that a person who had a menial job like him should ask. Besides, how could Xiao Sha possibly know anything?

As he expected Xiao Sha shook his head, “I don’t know, but a lot of powerful Skywalkers all came out to defend the castle. They don’t usually kill civilians, so grandpa please be careful and don’t go out of the room.”

Xiao Sha turned around and planned to leave after telling Chu Yunsheng to take care of himself, “It is chaotic outside, you are still going out?” Chu Yunsheng knitted his brows and asked.

Xiao Sha gritted his teeth and said, “the bastards from the castle of raging fire killed my parents and kidnapped my wife, I…”

Chu Yunsheng knew that he was just an ordinary man, but those who have broken into the castle were definitely Skywalkers. There was no way he would be able to kill any one of them, so he said, “it’s a suicide…”

But he was suddenly interrupted by the fighting noises outside of his courtyard. Then two men, who dressed in red, jumped over the wall of the courtyard and landed inside. After they landed, one of the men suddenly picked up the other red cloaked man and threw him to the other side of the wall, “It is a trap, go! And find the fire messenger!” the man who stayed behind shouted.

Then two more people who were dressed in white jumped over the wall, and while they were still in the air, they nocked the arrows, drew the bows and shot the arrows at the red-cloaked man in a split second.

The man snorted. At the same time, he quickly moved back a few steps, then swung his flaming sword to hack two freezing arrows.

“Ning Huiyan, you can’t run away now, surrender yourself!” The third person in the white dress closely followed. She was Xu Qingshu.

Recently, in order to find that man, the people in the castle were heavily overloaded with the search tasks. Under the influence of the ice messenger’s frequent impatient urging, many skywalkers in the castle of snowstorm were exhausted. However, the people from the castle of raging fire were resting well. If it weren’t for the fact that the informants had risked their lives to come back to the castle to give them the information, the people from the castle of raging fire would have probably already succeeded.

The red-cloaked man in the courtyard was a relatively powerful Skywalker in the castle of raging fire, so Xu Qingshu had to deal with this man personally.

At the moment, a menial’s house was filled with four powerful skywalkers.

“We don’t know that yet!” Ning Huiyan sneered. He lowered his sword and quickly moved back another few steps. He was even more close to Xiao Sha now.

“Kill him!” Xu Qingshu landed inside the courtyard and immediately ordered the people to attack. At the same time, she nocked her unique light blue arrow and drew the string to the maximum.

Instantly, a fierce fight broke out in the small courtyard. While two parties were exchanging the ice and the fire energy, the buildings around them were either frozen or burned by them.

Chu Yunsheng held Yuan Qiyang and quickly came out of the house before it collapsed. On the way, he also grabbed Xiao Sha who was stunned by the power of Skywalkers as well.

It was three versus one. Even Ning Huiyan, who looked like a rank-four dark warrior or at least a rank-three dark warrior to Chu Yunsheng, also barely blocked all the attacks. If it were not for the strange sword in his hand, he would probably have already died.

Suddenly, a loud rumbling noise like thunderclap appeared in the sky, an object, that was surrounded by flames, flew over the castle and everything was lit up in its path.

Chu Yunsheng had good eyesight. What he saw was a man, a cloaked man with a long sword.

Xu Qingshu’s people did not know who the man was, but they still jumped up trying to stop the man.

“No!” Xu Qingshu shouted. She had also seen the person. Although she did not know who the person was either, she knew that that cloaked man was on a different level.

However, it was too late, two blades made of flames were cast out at those two white dressed women who were trying to stop the cloaked man. Two women were hit and smashed onto the ground.

The cloaked man did not seem to be interested in the people below. He quickly flew over the courtyard and did not show any signs of stopping. He did not even look at Ning Huiyan at all.

In the destroyed courtyard, the situation was changed in a split second. One of the women that were smashed onto the ground was dead instantly, and the other one was heavily injured. Now, there was only Ning Huiyan and Xu Qingshu.

Chu Yunsheng felt something was very strange about the cloaked man who had just flown by. He had fought one cloaked man before. However, the other cloaked man could not kill high-level skywalkers that easily.

Then he suddenly remembered Tian Yi, the guy who he killed when he just came to this area. That man said that the fire messenger got some important things from the divine realm, was it because of those things that made it become so powerful? Or maybe it was originally much more powerful than the one Chu Yunsheng encountered?

The situation in the castle of Snowstorm was very chaotic, Chu Yunsheng took Yuan Qiyang with him and retreated back to a corner. He did not want to get involved in those alien’s business, but he wanted to see if those two aliens would end up both injured.

He did not know when he would be able to see that, but he knew that two humans in front of him were going to end up injured soon!

Without the help of the other two people, the power balance between two parties was instantly created. Both people could not injure each other at the moment.

But soon, Ning Huiyan noticed Xu Qingshu’s weakness, this woman was always trying to protect the ordinary people in a corner of the courtyard.

The entrance to the courtyard was blocked by the building debris, most of the people who lived in the courtyard were ordinary men. Even if they could climb over that debris, they also could not survive outside. Only

Ning Huiyan immediately turned around and swung the sword at one of the corners, where people were hiding. He wanted to force Xu Qingshu to save them so he could gain the upper hand of the fight…

Xu Qingshu’s face instantly dropped. However, just when Ning Huiyan thought that his plan was successful. The arrow that Xu Qingshu had shot out to block his energy blade suddenly changed the direction and flew straight towards Ning Huiyan.

She wanted to give up protecting those ordinary people and use this opportunity to kill Ning Huiyan.

While they both were thinking that their plan was perfect!

Chu Yunsheng was struggling to make a decision. With his speed, he could easily pull away Yuan Qiyang to dodge the flaming blade. However, Auntie Wang and Xiao Sha behind him would definitely die.

But if he used his ability, then he would be exposed to everyone here.

It was an extremely difficult choice to make!

However, the flying flaming blade did not give him much time to think, he needed to act as soon as possible!
