Zhou Xizhuo is a villager from Blackwater Village. He went out early in the morning to kill monsters and level up.
The village chief's voice suddenly rang in his ears, startling him.
Someone actually wants to attack Blackwater Village!
What's most infuriating is that if a village is annexed, all villagers will be demoted!
Zhou Xizhu was furious!
Every day, they risked their lives, working hard to level up and fight monsters, without provoking anyone. How could such a disaster suddenly befall them?
He stopped killing monsters and hurriedly ran back to the village, encountering many other people on the way back.
When they returned to Blackwater Village, they found more than a thousand people holding strange weapons, blocking the village entrance. No one could get in or out.
Many villagers from Blackwater Village were shouting and cursing at those people.
"Are you all just bored and looking for trouble? Why are you attacking our Blackwater Village?"
"How dare such a small group of people cause trouble? Are they looking for death?"
"Get out of here, or I'll kill you all."
The villagers of Heishui Village who rushed back were all kept outside. They didn't dare to take action directly, so they could only stand not far away and curse loudly.
They hoped to use verbal attacks to deter the invading enemy.
Zhou Xizhuo glanced at it twice and felt that continuing to curse was pointless.
He was tall and burly, and he always liked to meddle in other people's business. At this moment, he stepped forward and shouted, "We have more people in Blackwater Village than them. Let's all attack together and kill them!"
Many people at the scene immediately responded, shouting that they wanted to kill them.
Zhou Xizhuo was overjoyed, thinking that the people of Heishui Village were still very united.
He strode forward, wanting to take the lead.
After taking two steps, he found that no one was following him and they were all looking at him with strange eyes.
Those eyes seemed to be saying, "Go for it! We're cheering you on!"
Zhou Xizhuo was furious. It turned out that only he was taking it seriously, while the others were just making empty threats.
You can't blame them; most people don't want to risk their lives.
What if I get killed? It's better to be demoted one level!
It's just a village in a strange realm; there's no need to risk your life to protect it.
The people of Taoyuan Village stood in a fairly neat line at the village entrance, each one ready for battle.
They were scolded until their faces turned pale, but no one said a word or made a move.
On the way here, Xia Tianqiong had repeatedly emphasized that everyone should follow orders. They must not act unless instructed to, and must not back down when ordered to act.
Otherwise, they will have money deducted or even be punished by the supervisory team.
Thus, this hastily assembled team began to exhibit some semblance of discipline.
At this moment, Zhang Luyang, accompanied by two men, walked out of the village and stood between the two groups of people.
"Listen to me, everyone..."
He stood there and shouted to the people of Blackwater Village that this was an officially planned operation to break the Ghost Domain as soon as possible and reduce casualties, and advised them not to resist.
He went on and on, saying almost the same things Liu Shan had said in Taoyuan Village yesterday.
He is the captain of the patrol team, and he usually hunts down strange creatures all over the city. Many people have seen him and know that he is a very powerful official ghost hunter.
Some people in Blackwater Village wavered when they saw it was him, since it's normal for officials to want to solve strange phenomena.
Several more people in the crowd stepped forward to express their support for the official action.
These were clearly pre-arranged by Zhang Luyang to set the pace.
Sure enough, more and more people lowered their guard and stopped being so tense.
However, many people still couldn't accept it and continued to hurl insults, urging everyone to take action and drive away the invading enemy.
Xia Tianqiong stood in the middle of the group and glanced at the people of Blackwater Village. Two or three thousand of them had already returned.
A small portion of them chose to wait and see, showing no intention of taking action.
The other half were more radical, armed with weapons, shouting and cursing as they approached the Taoyuan Village contingent, ready to attack at any moment.
Xia Tianqiong suddenly stepped forward and stood at the very front of the line.
The people of Heishui Village knew he was the leader when they saw the words "Taoyuan Village - Mighty Village Chief" floating above his head.
Many people glared at him angrily; if it weren't for his high rank, some would have already been ready to attack.
Zhou Xizhuo had a fiery temper. He pointed at Xia Tianqiong and shouted, "What the hell gives you the right to attack our village? What right do you give us to accept demotion as punishment?"
Xia Tianqiong ignored him and took out a golden horn, putting it in her mouth and blowing it.
"Beep~"
The sound of the bull horn was deep and resonant, and as the sound spread, huge demonic bulls suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of them.
They have only faint outlines and their bodies are almost translucent, so they are clearly not solid entities.
As soon as the demon bull appeared, it lowered its head and charged forward.
If there were only a few cows, it wouldn't be frightening, but when more than two hundred appeared, it was like a torrent rushing forward.
Zhou Xizhu was terrified and turned to run away.
The other villagers of Blackwater were also thrown into panic and scattered in all directions.
However, they soon discovered that the cattle had veered to the side, and only a few people had been knocked away.
These people were seriously injured, but none of them died.
Everyone understood that Xia Tianqiong had shown mercy.
Otherwise, if they rushed into the most densely populated area, who knows how many people would die.
Amidst the panic of the people in Blackwater Village, Xia Tianqiong took out the Golden Horn Spear and casually swung it, drawing a straight line on the ground.
Anyone who crosses this line will be killed!
The voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling killing intent.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the 1,500 people from Taoyuan Village behind him suddenly shouted in unison, "Kill!"
The sound was deafening; everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs, their eyes wide open.
