Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Xuanwu Village! (11 more updates)

Ye Fan glared fiercely at Ling Feng, his facial muscles twisting in anger.

He had thought he would obtain the precious Blue Moon Red Fruit, but his plan to steal the chicken had led to losing the rice instead. Not only had he rendered one of their students useless, but now he was even forced to apologize in person!

Ye Fan clenched his fists, grinding his teeth, "Kid, what exactly do you want?"

"I’m not someone unreasonable. Saying sorry might indeed be difficult for you, so just hand over your Crystal Coins and everything else."

Ling Feng arched his eyebrows. Although he wasn’t in need of money, he couldn’t allow these people to just walk away scot-free!

"What?"

Ye Fan’s teeth clenched so hard they made a crunching sound; this was simply robbery amidst disaster!

However, they were in a weaker position, and the students from Heavenly Position Academy held the upper hand. If they turned more ruthless, Ye Fan might not even be able to save his own life.

In the end, Ye Fan obediently handed over his Heavenly Alliance Blue Gold VIP Card, which contained wealth equivalent to millions of Upper-Grade Elemental Stones.

Seeing Ye Fan handing over his wealth honestly, the other students from True Dragon Academy, not daring to resist any further, also took out their cards and Elemental Stones and handed them over to Ling Feng.

"Not bad," Ling Feng smirked, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said indifferently, "Scram."

Despite his reluctance, Ye Fan had no choice but to leave dejectedly.

Watching the students from True Dragon Academy leave, dragging along Huang Shaon who had become crippled, Goo Tengfeng burst into laughter and heavily slapped Ling Feng’s shoulder with his strong hand.

"Good lad, you’ve really kept yourself well-hidden!"

Ling Feng merely smiled faintly, without much response.

"Thank you, Young Master Ling, for your timely assistance."

Moo Yao approached him, curtsied deeply toward Ling Feng, her face full of admiration and reverence, and even a hint of a girl’s shyness.

For the first time, this tomboyish person developed feelings of affection for someone of the opposite sex.

Ling Feng nudged his mouth slightly and said indifferently, "No need to thank me, but what about your companions? In just this little while, how come only you remain?"

Moo Yao’s face slightly reddened and she shook her head with a bitter smile, "You’ve seen my embarrassment."

"That’s not true, Sister Moo Yao. Staying with us to fight side by side has already proven you are a trustworthy partner."

Lin Xian’er’s face wore a light smile, having received some minor injuries while battling the students from True Dragon Academy just before, fortunately, Ling Feng had ended the fight in time or they might not have lasted much longer.

"Sister Moo Yao, your martial techniques and movement technique seem extraordinary for a Loose Cultivator," Goo Tengfeng couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Even Ling Feng had noticed the extraordinary in Moo Yao, so an old fox like Goo Tengfeng naturally could as well.

"I am indeed not a Loose Cultivator, just from a normal family, not worth mentioning," Moo Yao smiled lightly, steadfastly keeping her family a secret.

Ling Feng and Goo Tengfeng exchanged glances but did not pry any further.

After regrouping, the group set out again.

Around dusk, they finally emerged from Mist Hidden Forest and reached the boundary of Beiliang County.

"Everyone, I still need to head to Beiliang County to complete a task. After this mission, I should also return to visit my family. Come to think of it, it’s been three years since I last went back."

Moo Yao bowed to Ling Feng and the others, took a deep look at Ling Feng, then activated her movement technique and sped towards the main city of Beiliang County.

As for Ling Feng and his group, they headed straight for Jiang Xiaofan’s hometown, Panshi Town, Xuanwu Village.

...

Due to Jiang Xiaofan’s anxiety, everyone used their True Qi Wings and rushed at full speed. By the time they arrived at Xuanwu Village, night had already fallen.

At this moment, the night was deep, and the stars were out of sight, the black curtain of the night looking like a devil revealing an incredibly ferocious face. The whole village was eerily quiet, as if it had fallen into complete silence.

Jiang Xiaofan looked up at the path leading into the village, the fences designed to fend off demons had been completely blasted to bits, as if smashed by a fierce beast with a single slap.

"Father, Mother, little sister! Please, let nothing have happened to you!"

Jiang Xiaofan was now frantic with worry. Seeing the destroyed fence, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice pit. He gritted his teeth and rushed into the village.

"This..."

Ling Feng and the others exchanged glances, unable to help but inhale a breath of cold air.

Had they arrived too late?

Inside Xuanwu Village, there were traces of destruction everywhere, large patches of blackened blood that had already coagulated were visible everywhere. Throughout the village, Jiang Xiaofan could even see about a dozen bodies lying on the ground.

From their clothes, they all seemed to be ordinary villagers who had no way to resist under the hands of the demonic evil people.

"My God, who could do something so cruel!"

Lin Xian’er covered her cheeks with her hands, barely able to bear seeing this scene that resembled a human purgatory.

"It’s utterly heartless!" Ling Feng also clenched his fists tightly. Now that Xuanwu Village had turned into this state, Jiang Xiaofan’s family was probably....

"No! No! This isn’t real! This isn’t real!"

Jiang Xiaofan yelled frantically as he sprinted towards his home.

All Ling Feng and his companions could do was follow. At this time, they couldn’t think of any words to console Jiang Xiaofan.

Racing along, Jiang Xiaofan ran through streets lined with houses charred by a great fire. Bodies of ordinary villagers lay everywhere on the roads, all in a horrifying state of death, as if their essence blood had been drained, turning them into nothing more than dried husks.

Jiang Xiaofan’s greatest fear now was arriving at his family’s mansion to find the bodies of his family members lying in the courtyard.

If that were truly the case, even crushing the bones of that demon into ashes would not mollify his regret.

Finally, the mansion of Jiang Xiaofan’s family came into view. It was indeed pitch-black inside without a single light.

Jiang Xiaofan violently pushed the door open and looked around, he circled through the various rooms and didn’t find a single corpse, which allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.

"It looks like your relatives should have managed to escape in time and thus avoided this calamity."

Ling Feng stepped forward and placed his hand on Jiang Xiaofan’s shoulder, asking in a deep voice, "Xiao Fan, your family must have some sort of secret escape route, right?"

Jiang Xiaofan’s eyes lit up, and he nodded, "Yes, our home does have a passage which leads directly to the ancestral tomb in the back mountain! My father and the others must have escaped through this secret passage!"

Saying this, Jiang Xiaofan led Ling Feng and the others to the backyard, prying open a wall brick at the base of the back wall, revealing a tunnel.

"Here it is!"

Jiang Xiaofan pushed open the secret door of the tunnel, took the lead, and jumped in, shouting to Ling Feng and the others, "Big brother, follow me!"
