Almost instantly, Mo Ruyu's pupils dilated, almost completely obscuring the whites of his eyes.
Seeing the woman's transformation, the bandit leader couldn't help but swallow hard. It was the first time he had ever seen this beggar use such a terrifying move.
Xiao Feng felt dizzy and his body swayed involuntarily. When he regained consciousness, he suddenly stared at the beggar in front of him.
And the "beggar" took the opportunity to make a move.
The two were unaware that they were under an illusion spell; to outsiders, they appeared to be killing each other.
The two were having a great time fighting, which surprised the surrounding bandits.
What's going on?
Why did they start fighting amongst themselves?
The bandit leader was utterly shocked.
That's amazing!
It would be a waste to use that money to become a robber!
After exchanging more than a dozen blows, Xiao Feng felt a series of sharp pains in his mind.
[Host's brain disorder detected; attempting to awaken them!]
[Attempting to awaken a second time!]
[Attempting to awaken...]
The sensation of being pricked by countless needles instantly brought Xiao Feng to his senses. Seeing Mo Ruyu attacking him, Xiao Feng instinctively jumped back a few steps.
Having dodged the fatal throat attack, he looked at Mo Ruyu with a shocked expression.
"Hey, you've mistaken me for someone else. It's me, don't hit me!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Ruyu not only showed no intention of responding, but instead intensified his attacks, each strike aimed at Xiao Feng's vital points.
Xiao Feng dodged left and right, clearly realizing that Mo Ruyu was under an illusion. Xiao Feng also understood that the problem definitely lay with the beggar.
"Old beggar, what exactly is going on? What tricks did you use?"
The beggar was also stunned. He stood up on his own, rubbed his feet, and muttered to himself.
"This shouldn't be happening. How can you be sober?"
The beggar was very confident in his illusion magic, and naturally thought that Xiao Feng would never be able to break through this terrifying illusion magic, but all of this actually happened.
The old beggar unconsciously frowned and couldn't help but look at the bandit leader behind him.
"Did I see wrong?"
The bandit leader was not a cultivator, so he naturally didn't understand the meaning behind those words. He just shook his head blankly and stared at them.
Xiao Feng finally realized that the problem lay with the beggar.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Feng charged straight at the beggar. Sensing the fierce attack, the old beggar frantically dodged.
After all, he had just blocked a fatal attack from Xiao Feng, so he naturally knew that Xiao Feng's strength was extraordinary and that he could not possibly be Xiao Feng's match with his own martial arts alone.
He was able to temporarily control Xiao Feng with illusion magic, making Xiao Feng and Mo Ruyu fight each other. He originally wanted to profit from this, but unexpectedly Xiao Feng woke up so easily.
Having exhausted all other options, the beggar began to hide in the surrounding area, relying on his familiarity with the terrain.
The bandits scattered and fled. Seeing this, Xiao Feng knew the principle of capturing the leader first, so he headed straight for the direction the beggar had fled.
Xiao Feng searched the village for a long time, but still couldn't find the beggar.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xiao Feng suddenly heard a crying sound. Instinctively, he drew the sword from his waist.
A chilling aura rose from behind him, and Xiao Feng became increasingly aware that something was wrong.
"Hehehe!"
Suddenly, a sinister laugh came from behind. Instinctively, Xiao Feng swung his sword backward and dodged again.
The laughter faded away again, but the direction it went was so confusing that it was impossible to tell. Helpless, Xiao Feng could only head in the direction of the crying.
After walking a few steps, I saw a little girl sitting on the ground, crying her heart out.
Xiao Feng subconsciously felt something was wrong, as if he was still in that illusion. After all, the surrounding scenery was too familiar, but there was no little girl when he ran over just now.
Xiao Feng felt a little scared and spoke softly to the girl in front of him.
Are you a human or a ghost?
The little girl cried even louder. Seeing such a keen emotional response, Xiao Feng almost mistook the little girl in front of him for a human.
So he couldn't help but step forward and ask with concern.
"What’s wrong with you?"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the little girl's figure suddenly transformed into a monster resembling a man-eating flower, opening its huge mouth to swallow Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng instinctively stepped back, throwing out the dagger at his waist. Unexpectedly, the dagger was swallowed whole by the man-eating flower.
"What the hell is this thing?"
Looking at those protruding fangs, Xiao Feng felt as if he had entered another world; this guy didn't seem to belong to this world at all.
A chilling sensation rose from his back again, and Xiao Feng instinctively swung his sword backward once more, accompanied by another burst of evil laughter.
When Xiao Feng turned around again, the man-eating flower had already reached him. Xiao Feng used all his strength to throw his fist at the man-eating flower.
With a bang, the man-eating flower exploded on the spot, turning into wisps of mist and disappearing again.
Xiao Feng was stunned.
What kind of enemies are these?
This was the first time Xiao Feng had felt a deep sense of powerlessness. But after the man-eating flower was blasted apart, he seemed to hear the direction of the laughter again.
Xiao Feng understood that he didn't have much time to waste right now. That beggar wanted to kill him, and if he didn't pursue him, he would eventually be ambushed.
Thinking of this, Xiao Feng quickened his pace and headed towards the direction of the sound. However, after running only a few steps, Xiao Feng heard another series of crying sounds.
This time, the crying came from a little boy. Without hesitation, Xiao Feng raised his longsword and thrust it. The little boy cried even louder when he saw the weapon in Xiao Feng's hand.
She even screamed!
Seeing this, Xiao Feng subconsciously turned around and spoke to the person in front of him with a wary expression.
"Are you a human or a ghost?"
The little boy just burst into tears, but when he saw Xiao Feng, he couldn't help but walk straight up to him.
"I...I'm scared!"
Having learned from his previous experience, Xiao Feng was unwilling to have too much contact with the little boy, so he took two steps back and thrust his longsword forward.
"You stay right there and don't move!"
The little boy nodded understandingly.
"I...everyone else in our village has been captured by bandits, I...I don't want to die!"
After saying this, the little boy burst into tears again, and Xiao Feng asked him with a cautious expression.
"They were all arrested, so how did you, the child, survive?"
Just as Xiao Feng thought he had found a weakness and was about to make his move, the little boy spoke again.
