Chapter 365 - 365 Feng Xia, the Topic Terminator
A moment later, the village chief finished reassembling his legs, raised his head and looked at Feng Xia with a solemn expression. “You can even discover such a secret. Young fellow practitioner, you’re not bad.”
A question mark slowly appeared on Feng Xia’s head.
?
What is not bad about that?
As long as one is not blind, one can clearly see it!
At this moment, a furious roar came from the village not far away. “Blind man! Are you peeking at my cards again—”
Feng Xia: “…”
Alright.
Although he had just dealt with a strange mother emperor, the people in this village were clearly not ordinary people as well.
The matter with the mother emperor had come to an end for the time being, so it was now time to handle the village.
“Village chief, why are you looking for me?”
Feng Xia shook his head and gathered his thoughts again.
What needed to be done still had to be done.
“Ahem! Actually, it’s like this.”
The village chief coughed with a strange expression on his face. He said awkwardly, “I see that you have… delicate features and nice bones. You’re a good candidate for martial arts… Forget it, I want to bring you somewhere. If you’re willing to come, then follow me now.”
Feng Xia pondered for a moment and quickly nodded.
Coincidentally, he also wanted to use this opportunity to find out the truth about this village.
The second level was a wasteland after all and was extremely strange. If he continued to stay here, he was worried that something unexpected would happen.
“Youniang, Qing Lin, wait for me here.”
Feng Xia waved his hand at the two girls before following the village chief. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
The two girls turned around and saw a group of old men and women from the village surrounding them with smiles on their faces.
“Girls…”
“The two of you are from outside, right?”
“Look, we oldies have been here for so many years and rarely have the chance to go out and take a look.” The old woman with the walking stick rubbed her hands and chuckled. “Since you’re from outside, can you…”
Before she could finish speaking, Zhu Youniang brushed past her.
The old woman’s smile froze on her face.
She instinctively looked at Qing Lin and saw the snake demon girl flicking her tail and gliding on the ground, quickly going around her.
“These two little girls… What’s going on?!”
The old woman was stunned.
She knew very well what kind of commotion these two young ladies had caused when they first arrived!
Why were they so cold now?
“Little girls, don’t be so cold. Come and tell me, what exactly are you…”
Before she could finish speaking, she saw the two girls in front of her create a surge of misty fog. Immediately after, two huge shadows appeared.
One of them was a huge spider that was as dark as black jade. It lowered its head and looked at the few of them. Sharp spider feet tore through the void and flashed past their heads one after another.
Strands of broken hair floated down, making one’s scalp turn cold.
Only Stutter touched his bald head as if nothing had happened.
On the other side, a python nearly 1,000 feet long raised its head and looked at everyone with its golden pupils. With a swing of its tail, a series of explosions occurred in the air.
“You guys are so noisy.”
The python spoke in human language and criticized them with a childish voice.
Then, she flicked her tail and left them with a faraway back view.
Even so, a heavy sense of oppression still filled the air, making the group of old men and women look at one another, staying speechless for a long time.
After an unknown period of time, someone finally said in a daze.
“What exactly is going on? Could it be that what we did to trick the two of them… Oh no, did they discover that little trick?”
“That’s impossible. Didn’t the two of them have a lot of fun?”
“But what’s going on now? Why are the two little girls unhappy?”
One had to know that previously, Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin, these two young ladies, had caused chaos in their village. In the blink of an eye, before they could get angry, these two young ladies had thrown a tantrum?
As expected…
Had they been out of touch with the outside world for too long?
However, the group of old men and women did not notice that after Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin left, they did not go far before they returned to their human forms with two puffs.
“Is it confirmed?” Zhu Youniang looked at Qing Lin.
“Mmm!”
The snake demon girl nodded vigorously.
In fact, when they were messing around in the village previously, they had made some unexpected discoveries. Furthermore, based on the attitude of the villagers, they did not seem to know about the existence of that thing.
...
Therefore, after some discussion, the two of them decided…
The one who struck first would gain the upper hand!
“When Xia is back, he would be very happy!”
The residents of this village suddenly shivered for no reason.
…
At the same time, Feng Xia had already followed behind the village chief and arrived at the forest behind the village again.
Darkness enveloped the area and gray fog filled the air.
There were also the hissing sounds of strange monsters coming from afar.
“Village chief, where are you taking me?”
Feng Xia asked curiously.
Although his expression was a fake one, he was indeed very curious. The village chief had invited him out at this time with a mysterious and solemn expression. If one did not know better, one would think that this old man wanted to make arrangements for his funeral!
...
“A very important place.”
The village chief did not say anything else and just shook his head before continuing forward.
However, Feng Xia’s expression gradually became strange.
This was because at this moment, he had already discovered that the route that the village chief was taking seemed to be the same route that he had taken with Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin earlier!
At this moment, he could already see the withered ancient tree and the floating spiderweb on it.
The village chief actually wanted to bring him to this place!
Even though Feng Xia was already mentally prepared, he was still more or less shocked when he saw the village chief standing still. Oh my, this was really fate!
“We’re here.”
At this moment, the village chief turned around at the ancient tree and stared at Feng Xia for a long time with an intense gaze. Then, he said slowly in a low voice, “Young fellow practitioner, do you know the origin of this village?”
The moment the old man without legs spoke, an invisible aura suddenly rose from him.
It was vast and powerful!
His figure was clearly very hunched, but at this moment, he looked extremely tall and mighty.
Feng Xia thought for a moment and asked tentatively, “Did the Lingyun Emperor send you to guard this place?”
The village chief was stunned. He opened his mouth and stammered.
“How do you know?”
