Chapter 619: Things That Don’t Matter



When the woman was asked this question, she was speechless. She wanted to explain, but she couldn't say anything bad about the messenger of God. She didn't dare to speak out the grievances she suffered, so she could only vent her anger on her family. This made her look lost, as if she had lost her soul. But how could an ordinary commoner know what the written laws were? She just picked them up and used them because others said so.

This is a kind of self-consolation, as if it is understandable that the messenger of God did not come to help them, but they are abandoned, no one cares about them, no one cares about their life or death. The woman lowered her eyes, and the six children were silent. At their age, they should play, but for some reason, the most common thing they do all day is to tilt their heads and stare blankly without saying a word.

The older boy, who was probably an adult, had a funny mustache. He sneaked toward the door but was stopped by the woman.

"Mom, I want to help Dad."

"He's going to die, are you going too?"

“All the men in town have gone!”

"What nonsense! You are a man even though your hair hasn't even grown out yet? Just stay here and be quiet! Look at Uncle Zhang and Uncle Li next door, which one of them always runs outside? How can they take care of others when they can't even take care of their own family? Don't glare at me, have you forgotten how your parents died? You relied on the fact that you are a cultivator and rushed forward with some ability, but ended up being eaten by that big bird..."

The woman chattered non-stop, with an imposing manner. The more the boy listened, the more he lowered his head. Finally, he sat down on the white cloud-like ground in despair, fantasizing about how he would become a strong man in the future, but he didn't know that the strong man was right in front of him.

Perhaps because they had experienced despair too many times in life, Xia Xiao did not see any signal of asking for help in their eyes. They had experienced it before, and now they had not given up the idea of ​​getting help, but they dared not hold out hope anymore.

"How long have we slept?"

"Two days."

Xia Xiao pondered for a moment, then quickly stood up and took the knife. Ah Zhu followed him out, not forgetting to carry his bag. The woman was talking behind them, but the two pretended not to hear. There was no need to listen, just do what you have to do.

"Will those gods come to arrest us?"

Ah Zhu understood Xia Xiao well enough and knew that he would nod. Even if he had to leave, he had to do something before leaving. He couldn't thank him enough for saving his life, so he helped them get rid of a few wild beasts. But they were both a little curious about what a god's messenger was like, but it definitely had nothing to do with the real god.

Outside the door curtain, everything was the same everywhere. Xia Xiao and Azhu looked around, and while they were still trying to figure out the direction, the boy from before appeared.

"You guys are going to the town?"

"Thank you for leading the way."

"Please follow me."

In fact, Xia Xiao and Azhu were not much older than him, but because they had been to many places and could practice, they seemed more mature. The boy did not dare to take the initiative to talk to strangers, so Xia Xiao took the initiative to ask:

"A lot of wild beasts will come to town?"

"It's mainly those few, but they are very strong and we can't deal with them."

"Please introduce yourself."

"A fourth-level thunderbird that can spray lightning and has great destructive power, and enjoys doing so. The fourth-level anaconda is very fast and eats people. It always swallows people whole, leaving no bones. There is also a group of second-level monkeys. Although they are small in size, their number is astonishing and they are very annoying. Every time they come, they will capture a few young girls."

Unexpectedly, the way Yun Country described the strength of wild beasts was the same as other places. Xia Xiao immediately understood it and put on a relaxed expression, saying:

"After today, you won't have to worry about these problems anymore."

The boy just nodded slightly, with hope, but also some doubt. These two people were about the same height as him, not strong and injured. Could they really fight against the Thunderbird Anaconda? Not to mention the Thunderbird flying in the sky, the Anaconda was extremely powerful and once destroyed half of the town in one breath. Could they stop such a momentum? Obviously impossible.

Out of concern and curiosity, the boy asked:

"Are you practitioners?"

Ah Zhu nodded and added with a hint of pride:

"Great practitioner."

The boy was about to ask, if he was a great practitioner, how could he appear in the river outside the town with injuries all over his body. If it weren't for his father saving them, they would have been washed under the clouds, and they would have been smashed into a pool of meat paste without any bones left. But after thinking about it, the boy didn't offend him and just led the way silently.

At the head of the town, a dozen men looked at the traps with admiration. This was the result of their improvement, and they hoped to protect the town with it. But in Xia Xiao's eyes, how could these backward bows and big pits stop thunderbirds and anacondas? The arrows should be sharper and the pits should be twice as big. If they were dug by manpower, they would probably be exhausted.

In order to maintain their self-esteem, Xia Xiao did not deny these fortifications. But seeing the three people coming, more than a dozen men were at a loss, and their faces selectively put on respectful and numb expressions.

"Why are you here?"

The boy lowered his head and dared not speak. This expression was like Xia Xiao's previous practice of not being able to practice, but meeting the elders of the National Elders' Institute. But now he didn't need to be like that, and boldly stepped forward, full of dirty words.

"Come and help you get rid of that Thunderbird Anaconda."

A dozen men were excited when they heard this. In all these years, no one had ever said they would help them. But after taking a look at Xia Xiao, they realized that this guy was very thin. Could he really fight against the Thunderbird Anaconda? They didn't think so. They turned their heads and looked away, leaving Wu Di standing there awkwardly. He was a cultivator, but he couldn't sense any fluctuations in Xia Xiao's vitality. He was probably just bragging and couldn't believe it.

Ah Zhu suppressed his laughter and whispered in Xia Xiao's ear:

"See? People don't believe you."

"Just believe it."

Xia Xiao walked forward on his own. Wu Di stretched out his hand, wanting to ask him to go back, but he walked straight through like a ghost, and in an instant he arrived in front of the trap and looked into the distance.

The town was full of traps, and outside was a wide river, and on the other side was a gloomy forest, which looked a little creepy even in the daytime. The cries of birds and beasts inside made the dozen people behind him tremble, fearing that the plague gods would come to visit. But Xia Xiao was going to take the initiative to lure them in today and kill them.

The evil spirit in his body had begun to suppress his blood. With Xia Xiao's huge mental power, he instantly invaded the forest not far away from where he was. The big birds and snakes living in the forest lost their minds and were easily controlled by the evil spirit and came here. As for the monkeys, they were frightened by the evil spirit in a breath, and many of them were killed or injured.

While Wu Di and the others were still thinking that Xia Xiao was just being mysterious, a large bird carrying lightning and thunder rushed out of the forest. A large snake was spitting out its tongue, and under the control of the evil spirit, it rushed over like chasing the stars and the moon. Its huge wings stirred the air, causing the lightning to spread continuously, and the large snake on the ground arched the ground, almost causing it to break.

"Why are you here today?"

"It's the wrong time!"

"It's over."

A dozen men retreated while looking at Wu Di. The latter called everyone to go behind the town gate to get weapons, and encouraged everyone to rush forward even if there were sacrifices, otherwise it would not be a few families that would be destroyed, but the town. There used to be hundreds of families, but now there are only dozens left, and they must rise up to protect it.

Ah Zhu looked at them and burst out laughing. Why did they all ignore Xia Xiao's existence?

Xia Xiao's eyes were like furnaces, colorful, with flames burning and rolling, and hot air constantly floating. It had the power to directly turn the two wild beasts into skeletons, but Xia Xiao chose not to do so. He had to put on a show, and when he used a lot of vitality, he discovered the person in the dark. Since he had been waiting for him to display his strength, he would definitely not show it all.

"How do you fight?"

"The movements are exaggerated and the expressions are on point."

"You are such a dog."

After Huodou finished cursing, Xia Xiao grinned, his eyes faded away from the thick fire energy, and he simply pulled out the knife. When the knife came out, even though Thunderbird and Anaconda had regained their consciousness, they still rushed towards the cold light angrily.

Wu Di and the others saw the movements of the two beasts and couldn't help but feel strange, but could Xia Xiao deal with them? Ah Zhu glanced at them, straightened her waist with great pride, and waited for Xia Xiao to start performing. Even if Xia Xiao only used a knife, he could still perform well, she had seen it before.

Sure enough, facing the ferocious anaconda charging towards him, Xia Xiao just stood where he was, with his arm against the knife, ready to fight it head-on.

"This kid is crazy, is he going to take on the anaconda's move like this?"

"The scales of the anaconda are like iron shields, and its fangs are more than a meter long. This guy is really reckless."

"Why……"

Wu Di shook his head. It was a pity that he died without knowing his name and identity. The more he thought about it, the more shocking Xia Xiao's next move became. The knife in his hand easily chopped off the scales of the anaconda, and the flesh underneath was also broken, and the internal organs were broken along with it.

The roar was terrible, and the anaconda twisted around, making a terrifying noise. Although it was not fatal, the height of Xia Xiao's jump shocked the dozen men. He clearly had no vitality fluctuations, but he had such strong strength, which was unreasonable. But how could the villagers in the remote area understand the person standing on their heads?

"Jumping so high?"

"The Thunderbird has passed!"

Compared to the anaconda, the Thunderbird's movements were the most frightening. The hundreds of lightning pillars it carried with it instantly slapped towards Xia Xiao, causing the clear sky to change color. The lightning here had blown up half of the town, but Xia Xiao waved away with one arm. The arm, along with the lightning and the Thunderbird's body behind it, was thrown towards Ah Zhu, causing his eyes to widen.

Azhu knew that Xia Xiao did it on purpose. No matter how loudly Wu Di and the people around him shouted "get out of the way" and "be careful", she just stood there, raised her smooth chin and watched it approach.

A lightning meteorite fell from the sky suddenly, burning the air to the point of being hot, but the lightning was close to Azhu and hit her hair.

"That's enough!"

Ah Zhu pouted, with a little resentment in his eyes. The next moment, the lightning pillars in the sky were blocked by a knife. Wu Di didn't know how he rushed the thunderbird into the sky, but two sword energies were like arrows of light and shadow, one piercing the thunderbird in the sky and the other nailing the anaconda to death on the ground. The cries and screams were different, but they were both miserable. When there was no hope, Xia Xiao didn't even look at them. It was just that Wu Di and other men had expressions on their faces that were hard to hide, looking at the two figures standing together, as if they had met gods.
