Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 16 Demon Slaying Town

It was already the third day after leaving Yunhe City.

Ye Chen carried a sword, stood on a hillside, and saw a small town from a distance.

On the day he left Yunhe City, when he said goodbye to Su Qinxue and Qingyin, as well as the Ye family, those elders didn't know whether they were scared or really reluctant to be in tears, and kept saying that they would arrange some people to follow him to the imperial capital.

But when Ye Chen said that he invited Su Linhai to sit in the Ye family through Su Qinxue, those guys suddenly changed their words.

One by one, they shouted loudly, sending the patriarch to the imperial capital to participate in the clan conference, and promised that they would definitely assist Zhan Tianhou and take care of the patriarch's wife and Xiao Qingyin.

Only Ye Zhan solemnly instructed Ye Chen to take care of himself, beware of people's hearts, and delivered the Ye family's ancestral sword to Ye Chen.

Looking at the rusty tetanus sword in his hand, Ye Chen smiled slightly, jumped down the hillside, and walked in the direction of the town.

According to the landmarks on the parchment map, this place should be located in the small town called "Demon Slayer" on the south side of the Spirit Beast Mountain Range.

"Demon slayer...... Ye Chen muttered, "Could it be that there are monsters in this place?" ”

"Of course there are youkai."

Without waiting for Ye Chen to react, a voice came from behind him.

He turned his head to see a man with a giant sword on his back staring at him with a pair of bronze bell-like eyes.

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you?" ”

"Demon Slayer." The man replied with three words simply, and then his eyes glanced at the sword Ye Chen was holding in his left hand, he was slightly stunned, and said in surprise: "You are also a demon slayer?" ”

"Uh...... Let's take it a long way. ”

Ye Chen thought about it for a while, although he didn't know how men judged that he was a demon slayer, but walking in a strange place, it would always be better to have an identity.

"Well, lifting a sword to slay demons is the standard configuration for our demon slayers, that is, little brother, your sword, it's too thin." The man gave a thumbs up, pointed to the giant sword behind him, and said with a smile: "In Xia Gao Chong, little brother, the sword of the demon slasher has to be as thick as mine to cut off the dog heads of those wolf demons in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range!" ”

"The wolf demon's dog head?" Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, not knowing if he had heard it wrong, or if this demon slayer named Gao Chong was speechless.

"That's right, it's a dog's head!" Gao Chong saw that there was obvious doubt in Ye Chen's eyes, and said bluntly: "Brother, aren't you also here to slay the wolf demon in the demon town?" You should know! ”

Gao Chong pointed to the notice posted on the wall next to the gate of the town in the distance, and said: "You see, the spirit dog of the Spirit Beast Mountain Range has mutated into a wolf demon, and it has become a disaster in the southwest corner of the mountain range. ”

"Clams? Greyhounds turn into wolf demons? Ye Chen looked towards the position of Gao Chong's finger, and after reading the words on the notice exactly, he asked in a daze: "Is it too outrageous for a dog to mutate into a wolf?" ”

"What's so outrageous about this!" Gao Chong saw that Ye Chen didn't know anything, like a little white, he suddenly became interested, and said without thinking: "What is the name of the little brother?" ”

"Ye Chen." Ye Chen replied lightly.

"Good! Little brother Ye Chen, I know when I see that you are holding such a thin sword, you should have just entered the line of demon slayers, come and let me tell you, this demon slaying town ......"

“…… It is set up by the Demon Division of the Tianfeng Empire, and there are three identical towns in the east, west, and north directions of this Spirit Beast Mountain Range, and the one in front of us is the South Town. ”

"Although it is a southern town, this is the town where the most demon slayers gather."

The more Gao Chong spoke, the more excited he became, and he pushed Ye Chen and walked towards the town, saying as he walked:

"It's not surprising that the 'dog mutated into a wolf' just now posted on the city wall, you may not know that since a hundred years ago, various spirit beasts have begun to turn into demons in this spirit beast mountain range, and our demon slayer and the Imperial Town Demon Division have also appeared and established because of it!"

All the way, all the way.

Gao Chong skillfully pushed Ye Chen to a tavern, said hello, and pulled Ye Chen to sit in a clean window position.

"Is it the first time that little brother Ye Chen has come to Demon Slaying Town?" Gao Chong looked at the stunned young man, untied the giant sword he was carrying behind him, raised one leg on the bench, and asked directly.

Ye Chen nodded, telling the truth.

"Well, I'm from Yunhe City."

"Yunhe City?" Gao Chong's eyes changed, "Is it Yunhe City of the Su family, the richest merchant in the empire?" ”

"It's really good there, I heard that it is very prosperous, it is one of several important towns in the empire, and I also heard that the daughter of the Su family is very good-looking, but unfortunately I haven't been to Yunhe City, and I haven't seen that beauty."

Gao Chong said, beckoning, "Boss, serve the food, hurry up!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Ye Chen again, and said mysteriously: "Little brother Ye Chen is from Yunhe City, he must have seen the daughter of the Su family, tell Brother Gao to hear it, how beautiful it is!" ”

"It's okay, it's not as good-looking as my maid." Ye Chen looked at this familiar man, pulled the corners of his mouth, and mentioned Qingyin.

He didn't want to tell Gao Chong, saying that the daughter of the Su family in your mouth, big brother of the demon slayer, is my wife, and she just got married a few days ago.

He believed that if he really pulled it out, this self-acquainted man would definitely have more to say.

"Whew, it turns out that the rumors are all false." Gao Chong breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he was tired.

He stretched his shoulders.

At this time, the tavern owner brought the food and drinks.

Gao Chong picked up the chopsticks, picked up the wine bowl, and took a sip, "Little brother Ye Chen, let me tell you, this tavern, it's ......."

Another long gushing sentence blurted out, and Ye Chen didn't feel noisy.

He didn't close his eyes, he chose to use his aura to listen, eating and drinking leisurely, until the food was clean, a jar of wine was at the bottom, Gao Chong brought two benches and lay down, and fell asleep.

Ye Chen put away the aura on both sides of his ears and exhaled a long breath of turbidity.

glanced at Gao Chong, and then his gaze naturally moved to the road outside the tavern.

As Gao Chong said, there are many demon slayers in this town......

The tavern was built on the side of the street, and there were men and women who came and went with giant swords on their backs, most of these people's cultivation realms were in the middle or late stages of the forging realm, and only a few of them were in the qi induction realm.

Obviously, in the Tianfeng Empire, where the spiritual energy is thin, cultivators can't get the resources they deserve, and they can't go far on the road of cultivation at all.

However, although the middle and late stages of the forging realm are very weak, compared to ordinary people, they can be regarded as mortal martial artists, relying on their strength and some simple martial arts, it should not be a problem to be a demon slayer and make a living from this.

Ye Chen was thinking.

Suddenly, on the road outside the tavern window, a trace of aura that was not unfamiliar flashed.

The young man's vigilant eyes changed suddenly, it was the same aura as the black-clothed man who appeared in the courtyard of the Ye family's new house and the mountain behind him!

Ye Chen did not hesitate and turned out of the window.

Ignoring the surprise of people coming and going on the street, he looked up to the north, the familiar aura was still moving, and he could see the farthest team of people in the field of vision!
