The little girl walked up and pointed at Lin Yu and the others, shouting, leaving everyone completely confused.

Just then, the crowd parted, and a tall, elderly man walked out with a serious expression.

"Er Ya, are you sure it was these people who secretly entered Tianyuan?" Village Chief Mao Da's tone was icy, and his eyes were filled with vigilance and hostility as he stared at Lin Yu and the others.

It was these very people who trespassed on their clan's forbidden area, bringing disaster upon their village!

Er Ya said with absolute certainty, "That's right, Village Chief, it was them! My house is right next to the One Line Sky. That day I was washing clothes by the stream and I saw them sneak into the Heavenly Abyss with my own eyes! Maybe that group of people before were with them too!"

Just over a month ago, a similar group of people, under the cover of night, crossed the narrow gorge and entered the abyss. Since then, strange things have been happening in the village.

Hearing Er Ya's words, Mao Da's eyes grew even colder. "Damn foreigners, you've broken our rules time and time again. This time, we absolutely cannot let you off!"

"Everyone, what do you think we should do to these bastards?" Mao Da asked the crowd.

"What else can we do but break their legs!"

"Why not just kill them as sacrifices to the heavens? Maybe that will appease Lord Guan's anger!"

"Take them to the temple, cut off their flesh, and feed it to the dogs!"

The crowd was filled with righteous indignation and began to shout, as if Lin Yu and the others had committed some terrible crime.

Then they surrounded us, carrying rakes, plows, and carrying poles, all looking fierce and menacing!

This time, Ningxi couldn't take it anymore!

"Hmph! As expected, poor and remote areas breed unruly people. Do they really think the law doesn't exist?"

brush!

With a wave of her hand, twelve shapely women stepped forward from behind her, unleashing an invisible killing intent.

These are naturally the Ning family's twelfth mute servant!

Twelve masters of internal energy stepped forward together. These unruly commoners could not withstand it and retreated in fear, their faces turning pale. Some even fell to the ground, urinating in fright.

"How dare you!!"

The village chief's face was terribly gloomy.

He waved his hand, and two young villagers stepped out from the crowd, each holding a homemade shotgun!

Lin Yu took one look and thought, "Good heavens, this place really is a lawless zone. Poaching and illegal hunting are definitely rampant."

This is understandable, given the remoteness of the area and the limited means of livelihood for the locals. Besides farming, hunting is probably their only other option.

Faced with two iron halberds, Ning Xi's expression was somewhat grim. If a fight broke out, even if the Twelve Dumb Slaves could defeat their opponents, she herself would most likely be injured!

Just then, Lin Yu suddenly made his move!

With a wave of his hand, Lin Yu instantly drew the homemade guns from the two young men into his hand!

Everyone was slightly taken aback.

What kind of move is that? Retrieving objects from a distance?

However, what happened next shocked them even more.

With a simple bend of his hands, Lin Yu destroyed the two iron hammers instantly!

Grass!

Many people directly expressed their opinions.

This is terrifying!

"A monster! It really is a monster! Everyone, retreat!"

The village chief screamed in terror. In fact, even without him saying so, the others had already scattered and hid far away, watching Lin Yu in fear.

Ningxi was also extremely shocked at this moment.

Now, she finally understood why Feng Jiu had turned to Lin Yu when she couldn't handle things herself.

Based on his performance just now, this Sect Master Lin's cultivation level is definitely not ordinary; he is probably a martial arts grandmaster!

No wonder he became the leader of the Mingmu Sect; he truly has real skills!

Lin Yu glanced at the village chief and the others.

"Don't worry, I won't fight you! I just want to figure out what's going on," Lin Yu said, puzzled.

The village chief stepped forward, his face grim, and said, "You still have the nerve to ask us?"

"Since ancient times, Tianyuan has been a forbidden area of ​​our Guan Temple, and no outsiders are allowed to enter!"

"Legend has it that venturing into the Heavenly Abyss will disturb the spirit of Guan Yu, bringing terrible disaster to our clan!" the village chief shouted.

Lin Yu frowned. "The ancients were often ignorant. Don't take rumors seriously. Besides, you all look perfectly fine. There's no sign of any disaster."

"What do you know!"

The village chief said angrily, "We're perfectly fine! But do you know that strange things have been happening here ever since your people crossed the Heavenly Abyss!"

"Within a radius of ten miles, everything has turned to scorched earth, and all the crops have withered and died from drought! Furthermore, the cattle and sheep in our village are dying mysteriously at night!"

Mentioning these things, the village chief's old body trembled, and he said with hatred, "Master Liu said that this is all because you disturbed Lord Guan, and Lord Guan sent down divine punishment. You are all a bunch of jinxes!"

Ningxi and the others were stunned.

I initially thought these villagers were just being unreasonable, but I never expected such a strange thing to happen!

"Sect Leader Lin, this..."

For a moment, Ningxi didn't know what to do, so she could only look at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu frowned, thought carefully for a moment, and shook his head, saying, "What's certain is that these strange events have nothing to do with Chuang Tianyuan!"

"You dare to deny it, kid?" Village Chief Mao said angrily, "We were all fine before you came! If it wasn't because of you, who else could it be because of!"

"That's right! It's all because you disturbed Lord Guan!"

"Lord Guan is enraged and has unleashed divine punishment!"

"We're doomed!"

The crowd discussed the matter in alarm.

Lin Yu shook his head, looking helpless, and said, "Lord Guan is a god! He's a bodhisattva! To him, you are like his children. How could a father harm his children?"

"If you insist that Guan Yu did all this, then you are slandering him! You are blaspheming the gods!" Lin Yu shouted.

Upon hearing this, the villagers immediately fell silent!

"Uh..."

Even the village chief, Mao Da, was stunned.

What the young man said seemed to make sense.

Lin Yu shook his head. These people clearly didn't have much education, were easily fooled, and couldn't distinguish right from wrong.

He was certain that someone was misleading these villagers behind the scenes, which was why they were causing trouble for them.

Sure enough, at that moment, an old man in a Buddhist robe with a gloomy face suddenly walked over from a distance.

"Young man, I think you're the one who's all talk!"

"You probably don't know, but Lord Guan has five hundred great ghosts under his command! They usually hide in the Heavenly Abyss, and it was because you broke into the Heavenly Abyss that you awakened these ghosts! That's why the village has suffered such a disaster!"

The old man spoke with great certainty.

Upon hearing this, the villagers immediately became anxious again.

"Master Liu!" Mao Da immediately went up to him, respectfully and nervously asking, "Master, is what you're saying true? Is our village really haunted?"
