“You brat…”
Hearing what Feng Xia said, the old woman’s eyelids twitched. Break her bones and do it again?
How dare you say that!
However, when she thought of what Feng Xia had done outside the Demon Imperial Tombs, and how he even dared to tear down the twelfth door, she suddenly felt that Feng Xia’s words seemed to be completely within her expectations.
This kid was simply an audacious madman!
She even suspected that Feng Xia was not just saying those words, and that as long as she nodded at this moment, he might really do it!
“You brat…”
In the end, the old woman sized Feng Xia up vigilantly, then raised her hand to brush the dust off her feet before she said slowly, “What do you want, coming to our village?”
Village?
Feng Xia’s heart skipped a beat.
Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin had accidentally entered a mysterious village in the second level wasteland, right?
“I’m here to look for someone.”
Thinking of this, Feng Xia smiled and said sincerely.
Bloody hell!
Patriarch Muchen, who had finally gotten up, saw Feng Xia’s current face and looked as if he had seen a ghost. This unprecedented super vicious demon could actually look so “sunshine”?
Could it be that he was hallucinating because he was seriously injured?
This vicious demon could actually put on such an amiable attitude!
At this moment, Patriarch Muchen suddenly shuddered, and his expression instantly turned to fear.
At this moment, he remembered something—
Not long ago, when he saw this old woman fall and scream, a strong sense of worry actually arose in his heart. The further he walked after turning around, the more intense the condemnation of his conscience became!
Every step was like being burned by a raging fire.
After all, that was a weak elderly person who did not even have the strength to truss a chicken. After being knocked to the ground by him, it was obvious that she was seriously injured. If he really turned around and left, it was very likely that she would die!
… Bullshit.
Setting aside the fact that a weak old woman was only injured after being knocked by him, and did not turn into a blood mist and die on the spot, these feelings of guilt, torture and so on that arose in his heart…
These were very unbelievable!
Who was he?
He was the notorious Patriarch Muchen!
Under normal circumstances, if he encountered something like this, he would probably tease this pitiful mortal on the spot rather than suffer from a guilty conscience. First, he would give her the strongest sense of hope. Then, at the critical moment, he would knock her down from the clouds into the deep valley and experience the deepest despair in life!
Feelings of guilt and torture…
That was absolutely impossible!
However, not only did he have those feelings, he even stopped and turned to walk towards the old woman. Moreover, he did not feel that anything was amiss!
If not for Feng Xia’s timely appearance…
He would have most likely arrived beside the old woman by now. As for what would happen to him, Patriarch Muchen did not dare to continue imagining it.
“Oh my goodness… I’ve really been on the brink of death!”
Patriarch Muchen instinctively shrunk his neck with a look of lingering fear on his chubby face.
“Kid, you don’t have to put on such an expression. When we were outside the Demon Imperial Tombs, I could already tell that you’re not a good person.” At the same time, the old woman pursed her lips when she heard what Feng Xia said and shook her head unhurriedly. “You’re here to look for those two little girls, right? I’ll take you there. Quickly take those two little girls away!”
“Then I’ll have to trouble Senior.”
Feng Xia’s eyes flickered. Then, he nodded and smiled. “Senior, please lead the way.”
Although he was still not sure of the old woman’s true identity, since she did not show any malice, he was naturally happy to follow her lead.
Even if he really wanted to shed all pretense of cordiality… he would at least have to wait until he found Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin and confirmed their safety!
At that time, he could just summon the Heavenly Stairway, take out his butcher knife and flip the table… What was there to be afraid of?
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Feng Xia’s mind as he quietly followed behind the old woman.
Before long, a small village appeared in his field of vision.
The village was even smaller than Feng Xia had imagined, but it was really standing on the dark wasteland. An invisible force enveloped it like an invisible sky, isolating it from the strange corrosion.
Before they reached the village, Feng Xia saw a familiar figure from afar.
“Xia!”
Zhu Youniang noticed Feng Xia’s arrival almost at the same time. The young girl walked forward with light steps. Her beautiful hair fluttered in the wind and she had a bright smile on her face. She waved her fair hand at Feng Xia.
“Come here! I found something fun here!”
At the same time, a small figure poked her head out from behind Zhu Youniang.
Upon hearing what the girl said, the faces of the old men and women next to her immediately darkened.
Fun?
It might be fun in your eyes, but to these old bones, it was no different from a huge disaster!
“Oh?”
Seeing that Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin were safe and sound, Feng Xia heaved a sigh of relief instead.
He hid his hand behind his back and quietly put away the butcher knife. A sincere smile appeared on his face as he strode forward and gave the girl a big hug.
“I want one too!” Qing Lin leaned over.
“Eh, Qing Lin, you’re not going to be a cat anymore?” Feng Xia seemed to have noticed something and curiously glanced at the snake demon girl.
“I’m a Sky Swallowing Python. In the future, I will become a true dragon! Not a cat!”
Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, Qing Lin instantly became angry. The little girl shook the long tail behind her and the scales on her tail stood up. Her pair of golden eyes lit up and a Dao platform appeared behind her head, protecting a round Primal Core.
As if making an effort to declare her strength, the girl showed her teeth, bared her fangs and made an extremely fierce sound at Feng Xia.
“Rua—”
“…” Feng Xia was silent.
He suddenly had the illusion that he was looking into a zoo.
“Kid, since you’ve already found this place, quickly bring these two girls away!”
Right at this moment, a white-haired old man next to Zhu Youniang suddenly focused his eyes and spoke as if he was pointing out something. “We old folks will take on the losses in the village ourselves, but…”
He glanced at Zhu Youniang fiercely before sighing.
“Don’t bring them here again!”
“Seniors, are you inviting us to stay for a while?”
Unexpectedly, in the next instant, Feng Xia held Zhu Youniang with one hand and patted Qing Lin’s head. He calmed the furious little girl down and smiled at the white-haired old man.
“Then I’ll naturally accept it.”
“???”
…
