Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Monsters and Demons in Times of Chaos

In the moment Gui Hu disappeared, a figure flashed like lightning, swiftly approaching.

"Late arrival."

Upon seeing the situation at the burial mound, Monk Jun sighed.

Due to the murder, the burial mound had already been sealed off.

The local villagers were strictly prohibited from entering, but the prohibitions could stop people, yet not...

Two mats were spread out, only leaving a female corpse, and the male corpse had vanished without a trace.

Not only that, but there also lay an additional serpentine corpse on the ground.

Approaching to inspect, Monk Jun found the snake corpse was only skin and bones, its manner of death identical to the earlier male and female corpses found at the burial mound.

"Demon?"

Monk Jun’s brows furrowed tightly.

He had always suspected that the corpses from Qian Village and the burial mound were not the work of the same person. After the daytime incident at the burial mound, he had ordered the government officer to properly guard the two corpses, and then returned to Qian Village to search for clues.

By the time he returned to the burial mound, he suddenly discovered that the Evil Qi in front of him soared skywards, knowing that something was amiss, he rushed over in haste, but was still a step too late.

"A demon with three hundred years of cultivation, struck through the heart in one move, Essence Blood completely drained. The villagers of Qian Village were likely harmed by this great demon, but the one who killed it, that’s the real deal. It’s like the mantis stalking the cicada unwary of the oriole behind, just that I don’t know just who this oriole is."

In Monk Jun’s hands, the Seven-colored Buddha Beads chimed as they spun.

He looked towards the sky, which was quietly beginning to brighten.

"Thousand-year-old Corpse King has appeared, demons from various places are also awakening, chaotic times are approaching..."

After daybreak, Xin Lin slowly woke up, having slept through the night.

Upon waking, she saw Shi Guiren looking worried, sitting beside her.

"Miss Xin, you’re finally awake. You’re still a girl, don’t push yourself so hard in the future."

Shi Guiren’s face was full of words left unsaid.

Just before dawn, she and Emperor had found Xin Lin unconscious alone in the temple, looking utterly exhausted.

Throughout her unconscious state, she kept shouting tirelessly.

"Rascal... Sikong jerk..."

According to Emperor, Xin Lin’s background was also very tragic.

Her mother had just passed away not long ago, framed as a fugitive, she went to Purple Cloud City to find her biological father and clear her own name.

The names she murmured must be her major enemies.

Shi Guiren had known Xin Lin for just a day and was cautious around her, but seeing her so young and alone, struggling hard in cultivation, she must have had a tragic background, which evoked sympathy from Shi Guiren, feeling great pity for her.

"Where is the Rascal Corpse?"

Xin Lin felt around in her bosom, finding the Sealing Spirit Talisman was still properly lying there, she hastily circulated her energy and was surprised yet pleased to find the Fu Xi’s Energy still inside her body; having rested for one night, the Fu Xi’s Energy felt slightly stronger. Looking down, she saw a layer of dry grass beneath her.

The Rascal Corpse certainly had some conscience, not leaving her unconscious outside the dilapidated temple to be fed to the wolves.

But thinking about the Rascal Corpse forcing her to practice boxing the previous night, Xin Lin felt a headache coming on, wondering if that serious fellow would torment her daily like this in the future.

"Sister, are you awake?"

Little Xinzhuo walked in, his hands holding several steaming buns.

As soon as the day broke, Little Xinzhuo had gone into the city to gather news.

Seeing him, Xin Lin scolded with a stern face.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed? Those bandits might not have left; what were you thinking running off?"

"Sister, don’t worry, those bandits have gone. It looks like your methods were effective. Also, there’s good news, you’ll be thrilled to hear it."

Little Xinzhuo’s face beamed with joy.
