Volume 1, Chapter 13 I heard that Huoyun Mang had a bounty of two thousand taels for the fourth level.
After passing Fire Fox Town, head north and walk for another three days, you will pass by the first big city on this journey.
Yecheng, one of the twelve cities of Beimang.
After a few days of getting along, Dongfang Qingzhu had become friends with several people from the Ye family, especially Jinghong.
However, what the two were talking about made Ye Tingmu feel a little worried.
After all, Jinghong is still young, and she is afraid that she will be led astray by Dongfang Qingzhu.
Because it is close to Yecheng, besides Ye Tingmu and his group, one can also occasionally meet passing merchants and travelers on the road.
But without exception, when these people saw them, they would stop and watch, and talk in low voices.
Ye Tingmu remained exceptionally calm about this.
It's just that their team is too eye-catching.
For example, Feng He, who was carrying a bag taller than himself.
Qingfeng is as fat as a ball.
The lovely fairy-like child watching chess and marvelling at the beauty.
There is also the Oriental Qingzhu, which has a graceful figure and charming appearance.
Of course, there is also me, who is handsome, suave, talented, and incredibly cool.
"Have you heard? A big monster appeared in the Willow Town ahead."
"Who told you that?"
"My fellow villagers just came back from there and said that the monster was extremely brutal and had massacred several villages, killing many people. The Yecheng government even issued a notice advertising the city and calling on monster hunters to go and exorcise it."
"What realm is that great demon in?"
"It is said to be a fourth-level monster, the Fire Cloud Python."
"Hiss, level four, that's not something an ordinary person can deal with."
"That's right, but there will always be reckless people when there is a big reward. Many monster hunters are heading that way."
"How much is the reward?"
"Didn't the notice say that if you capture this monster alive, the reward is 3,000 taels of silver, and if you kill it, the reward is 2,000 taels of silver."
“So high?”
This conversation naturally fell into Ye Tingmu's ears.
When he heard about the fourth level, he had lost interest, but when he heard about the bounty, his eyes lit up again.
2000 taels, and it’s on the way.
He was indeed moved.
Although the fourth-level monster is as powerful as a strong man in the fourth level of Lihe realm, his own Duankong is also quite awesome.
With his strength at the first level of Kaiyuan Realm, once this sword was drawn, the sword energy would travel forward three hundred meters, destroying everything in its path. It could be said that it was a crushing blow.
He felt that killing the fourth level would not be a problem.
Moreover, there will be a lot of people participating by then, so I can easily grab the kills.
This isn't the first time I've done this, so I have experience.
Although Feng He had no cultivation, he also heard the conversation between those people.
He looked at his eldest brother and guessed his thoughts at a glance.
"Brother, do you want to do it?"
Ye Tingmu touched his chin and thought for a moment. It was on the way anyway, so he might as well go and take a look. After all, it was not easy to get out once, so he might as well earn more if he could.
“Do it.”
Feng He nodded, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"good."
He has been unable to determine his true strength until now. The last time he went out, they killed a third-level monster.
He was on the line with the big monster and was evenly matched with him.
Now, after half a year, he swings his sword three thousand times every day and feels that his strength has improved a lot.
Just when I wanted to test the sharpness of the sword, this Fourth Realm Fire Cloud Python was undoubtedly the most suitable stone to test the sword.
How could his thoughts escape Ye Tingmu's eyes?
His second younger brother was not only born with supernatural powers, but also very hardworking and completely self-taught.
For the past five years, the wind and rain have never stopped, the thunder and lightning have never stopped, and I have been swinging my sword to cut the sky every day without taking a day off.
It’s worthy of the name Fenghe that I gave him.
Taken from the wind and wheat.
He once asked him why he worked so hard?
He replied seriously, I will continue to swing my sword as always, just to become stronger, until I become the best in the world, then no one will dare to hurt you,
This was his answer at the time.
What he wielded was not a sword, but a guard.
Ye Tingmu still cannot forget his eyes at that time, which were persistent, determined, pure and clean.
The massacre of the entire village undoubtedly left a deep trauma in his ten-year-old heart.
At an age when he should be playing, he has to shoulder burdens that are not appropriate for that age.
This is the reason why Feng He doesn't like to laugh.
Over the years, Ye Tingmu was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.
All he could do was to protect him, stay by his side silently, and accompany him as he grew up.
It's funny.
In the past two years, it was the grown-up Feng He who had been protecting himself, and he was always the first to rush forward whenever something happened.
It seems that Fenghe has indeed grown up.
Willow Town.
It is named because it is abundant in willow branches and has willow forests.
Therefore, it was named: Liushu Town.
After saying hello to Dongfang Qingzhu, Ye Tingmu and his group changed their route and came to Liushu Town.
It was dusk.
The sunset is very beautiful.
On both sides of the road, willow trees are sprouting new branches.
Swallows fly low in pairs.
The entrance to the town, which was once bustling with people, is now empty.
Occasionally, someone would pass by, but they were all practitioners with great accomplishments.
I think they are all demon hunters who come here to exorcise demons, and most of them are at the level of Body Tempering and Kaiyuan.
Walk to the entrance.
Several officers were stationed here.
See Ye Tingmu and others arriving.
An officer stopped him.
"What do you do?"
Ye Tingmu raised his eyebrows slightly.
“Just passing by.”
The officer heard this and looked at the children behind Ye Tingmu, and reminded them, "Take a detour. There are monsters in this area recently. You have a family, don't get stuck there."
Seeing the other party's kind reminder, Ye Tingmu felt very comfortable.
At least the other party stopped it with good intentions.
"Brother, I am actually a demon hunter as well. I heard there were demon beasts causing trouble here when I passed by, so I thought I would help to eliminate the demons while I was there."
Several officers looked at Ye Tingmu curiously, while a few others even had mocking expressions in their eyes.
Looking at the young man in front of him, he looks like an elegant scholar. Although he has a sword on his waist, he doesn't look like someone who can wield a sword to slay demons.
What's more, the children behind him were still infants.
The woman also looked frail.
I couldn't help but find it funny. On the contrary, the big man beside him looked brave, but getting rid of monsters required more than just brute force.
"Do you know what the monster is this time? It's a fourth-level Fire Cloud Python. Don't get carried away just because you read a few books. You only have one life. Go back."
The people around him also laughed and echoed: "Go home quickly, a scholar, how dare you think of exorcising demons."
"I guess he has become stupid from reading too much."
"Isn't that what all scholars do? Look, he's bringing his baby with him."
Faced with the ridicule of several people, Ye Tingmu was not angry and remained extremely calm. Instead, Feng He was a little displeased. He stroked the long sword with his hand and murderous intent was in his eyes.
The leading officer shouted at the people behind him: "You all have nothing to do after eating, right? Stop talking."
He didn't know it yet, but this shout of his would cost him his life soon.
Ye Tingmu took out a sign from his waist and handed it over.
"Thank you for your concern, big brother. But don't worry, I'm a professional in exorcising demons."
