Chapter Forty-Nine: The Inside Story of the Village
"How could it be. The middle-aged man was incredulous because he hadn't seen Ling Xuan use the superfluous secret technique.
"It's okay if you don't believe it, tell me everything about the situation here, and I can let you go as appropriate. Ling Xuan said. He looked serious and didn't mean to joke.
The middle-aged man laughed, laughing as if relieved, and said, "My goal has been achieved, and it's nothing to kill me." ”
"Okay, backbone
But I don't understand why a person like you would kill the civilians of the entire village?" Ling Xuan pretended to be puzzled and asked.
The middle-aged man burst out laughing, with murderous intent in his eyes, and said, "Civilian, ridiculous." They don't deserve the title of commoner. ”
"Oh, in that case, can you tell me the reason for the incident?" Ling Xuan asked in a solicitative tone. As he spoke, the spear was already put away.
The middle-aged man sat on the ground and began to reminisce, telling about his past.
"Actually, I'm not from this village.
A year ago, my hometown was destroyed by the Shadow Cult, and all my relatives were killed, and I was the only one in the entire village and dozens of families who escaped.
I was wounded and went into the forest, and I walked this way......"
He was an outsider, wounded and fled here, where he was rescued by an otherworldly woman.
After he recovered, the people in the village learned that he was a strong person in the Shaping Realm, so they gave him the task of going to the mountains to kill the soul beast, take the flesh and blood of the soul beast, and bring it back to the village for food.
He thought that it was not difficult to kill the soul beast, and the village chief only asked for an intermediate soul beast. He promised the village chief that he was willing to kill the soul beast. He traveled that day and returned that day, bringing back five complete mid-level soul beasts from the space vessel.
The next day, he received another message from the village chief, saying that there was a high-level soul beast on the mountain not far away, and asked him to kill it. He traveled again, fought a bloody battle with a high-level soul beast and four middle-level soul beasts, and was physically injured, killed the high-level soul beast, and brought it back.
The next day, he lay in the house to recuperate, and the woman was always by his side to take care of him, and the village chief often came to see him, and he was very grateful.
After he recovered, the village chief came again and gave him the task. This time, the mission is no longer to kill the soul beast, but to explore a place.
The woman tugged at the corner of his clothes, and when he stood up to look, the woman was shaking her head with a solemn expression. He didn't know the place, and he didn't promise the village chief.
"Do you know that if we hadn't saved you, you would have died in the wilderness. The village chief said in an accentuated tone.
He was angry and replied, "It's Xiaoying who saved me, not you." ”
The village chief was angry and turned to leave.
At noon, the village chief came to his residence again, this time to apologize.
"Wang Xiao, I apologize to you for what happened in the morning, I'm sorry.
It was indeed Xiaoying who saved you, not us, and my words in the morning were wrong. We have another request for you now, can you help us again?" said the village chief in a calm tone, with the intention of asking for his wishes.
"It's not impossible to help, but please tell me about it first. He said.
The village chief looked very excited and said, "There is a high-level soul beast in the village's crops, and no one in the village is invincible, and I hope you will kill it." ”
He promised the village chief. He ran towards the crop field, and there was indeed a high-level soul beast inside, it was an alien bear beast, its strength was incomparable, but its movements were relatively slow.
He opened the phantom array and fought with the high-level alien bear. He was confident that he would have killed it quickly in the Phantom Array, but strangely enough, the Ursma didn't seem to be affected by the Phantom Array.
He had an idea that this alien bear beast was being manipulated, maybe it was just a taming beast, and the manipulator was far away, and it was not affected by the phantom array.
After about ten minutes of fighting, he only wounded his body with his long sword, and it was difficult to kill him. The strength of the alien bear beast has not decreased, and it uses brute force to counterbalance his speed.
After a few more minutes of fighting, the Alien Bear Beast repelled him and fled into the mountains.
When he returned, the villagers looked strange.
Not yet to the accommodation, outside the road. The village chief was followed by a group of people, all of whom were residents of the village. Xiaoying was tied up and pulled by two of them.
The village chief opened his mouth and threatened:
"Wang Xiao, you can't help but repay the grace of saving your life, we are not your life-saving benefactor, then the task we gave you before was what you voluntarily did for us, and it has nothing to do with your benefactor, and it is not considered to repay the favor.
Now that your benefactor's life is in our hands, if you want to save her, do as I say. ”
"I'm going to kill you all to avenge Xiaoying. He didn't accept the threat, and the sword in his hand was already there.
"Do you think you can beat us? You don't know what we're capable of. The village chief said again, "There are two of us in the Shaping Realm and one in the Martial Realm realm, do you think you can fight?"
Two Shaping Realms, that is to say, there are two people in the same realm as him. Among them, there is also a beast trainer who has a high-level alien bear beast, which is the escaped alien bear beast that he just fought with.
"What do you want?" he asked. He was very unconvinced, and he was threatened like this.
The village chief behaved very easily and said, "As long as you complete the task I gave you, I can let you and Xiaoying go."
The task is to go to the north canyon of the village to take out the secret treasure and hand it over to me. ”
Now he found out that in this village, both men and women are cultivators, and their cultivation is not too low, even the seemingly weak Xiaoying is also the strength of the martial arts realm.
This is a force, this is a group of robbers.
......
"There is a canyon behind the village, and there is a surge of energy emanating from it, and it is suspected that there are treasures such as soul books in it. The middle-aged man seemed to return to that moment.
The Soul Book is indeed a good thing, and it will record some secret methods, and it will be advantageous to obtain it. And the soul book is divided into three major levels: mortal, spirit, and soul.
Then, he spoke earnestly and said: "I don't know anything about the situation in the canyon, and they suspect that there is a field or something like that, so they took Xiaoying as a hostage and asked me to explore the way." ”
"Oh, why didn't they let the soul beast explore the way, but let you go?" Ling Xuan questioned.
The middle-aged man said calmly: "That high-level soul beast is slow, how can it be suitable to explore the way." What's more, that high-level soul beast is like his liferoot, how can he give it up!"
Ling Xuan hesitated, and said after a while: "Indeed, isn't this such a master of shaping mirrors as you." ”
"I promised them, and with their leadership, I came out of the canyon. I walked in alone, and I felt a strong energy diffuse from me......"
The middle-aged man continued to speak, but was interrupted by Ling Xuan's words.
"That's not right!"
"What's wrong?" the middle-aged man was interrupted, looking angry.
"Isn't Xiaoying their person, why do you still believe in them?" Ling Xuan said.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and then began to say earnestly:
"Although Xiaoying is their man, you must know that thieves can sacrifice individuals for the sake of collective interests. The middle-aged man said.
"Oh, yes, then you go on. Ling Xuan waved his hand and motioned for him to continue his narration.
"By the way, do you like Xiaoying. ”
The middle-aged man just wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Ling Xuan's words.
The middle-aged man gave Ling Xuan a cold look, and Ling Xuan shut up and didn't speak.
The middle-aged man reluctantly continued: "Then I'll continue to speak, don't interrupt me."
When I stepped into the canyon, a surge of energy came over me, and I protected myself with a protective shield and continued to move on.
I haven't gone far, there is a field ahead, and I broke through the field and entered it. ”
At this time, Ling Xuan came again and said, "Will you still break the field?"
"Of course, breaking the domain is a necessary means of home travel, don't you?" said the middle-aged man proudly.
