Chapter 068 Demon Lord 4
[Da Da Da——]
The wheels left two long marks on the ground. The carriage was shaking. Xiao Yan leaned against the cushion with his eyes half closed, holding a hand warmer in his arms. The sky outside the carriage was clear and it was very pleasant.
"Ouch, I hit my head!"
Seeing no response from the front, Xiao Yan shouted even more exaggeratedly: "Oh my old waist! Am I going to die soon?"
He said insincerely: "I'm afraid it's not good. Why don't you just let me go? I'll find a place to sit and die. I won't let you, at such a young age, run around for me like this..."
He pretended to wipe away tears. "The only ones I can't let go of are you and your senior brothers and sisters. I wonder if they'll be heartbroken after I'm gone... But there's no need to grieve too much. Time heals everything, and I, your master, will become a handful of dust in the long river of time..."
He raised his voice: "Let the wind blow!"
Qin Feng: “…”
Qin Feng's forehead was bulging with veins.
He endured it again and again, but finally he couldn't bear it anymore.
How could someone be so difficult to please?!
After leaving the sect, he originally took a flying boat. No one knew how many enemies this person had. Even the people who were chasing him in a low-key manner had changed several times. Only then did he blend in with the mortals and take a carriage.
This did indeed allow him to escape the pursuit, but it was also the beginning of his mischief! He complained about the cushions being uncomfortable, the weather being cold, and the food being bad!
Ha! A cultivator who's experienced countless battles, is he afraid of hardship and the cold?! He's already a cultivator, so why can't he use his spiritual energy to ward off the cold?! And he's a sword cultivator, so which sword cultivator hasn't endured hardship? Why can others endure hardship, but he can't?!
He was clearly teasing him on purpose!!!
"you……"
Qin Feng was just about to say, "Don't go too far," when he saw Xiao Yan leaning weakly against the carriage, looking at him with a pale face and a faint smile, as if he was about to disappear with the wind.
"Thank you for your hard work these days. I appreciate everything you have done for me, but..."
Xiao Yan said with all his might, "It's just that my life span is drawing to a close..." He looked at the sky outside the car at a 45-degree angle, "Never mind, let's find a place..."
Qin Feng: “…”
He had heard this sentence so many times that he felt numb.
Qin Feng closed his eyes and asked expressionlessly, "Now, what do you want to do?!"
Before Xiao Yan could say anything, he quickly said, "This place is not close to water, so I'm afraid there are no fish or shrimps. However, there are some dry goods in the storage ring."
"There are some thorn bushes in the nearby forest, so it must be private land. I'm afraid you shouldn't hunt there rashly."
Qin Feng looked so weathered that the system couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.
"Host, that's enough. How have you tortured him? He was full of energy before, but now he looks even more haggard than you! Be careful, or he'll abandon you if you push him too far. Then the mission won't be completed!"
Xiao Yan was not worried at all, and even wanted to preach: "You don't understand!"
"Apart from his fate, why do you think he ended up like that in his previous life?"
The system pondered for a moment, but couldn't come up with a clear answer. It was still a little unconvinced. "It's hard to escape that fate based solely on fate, right? Fate can't be changed. I think as long as we work hard to influence him and fill his heart with love, we should be able to escape that fate, right?"
The system is not very sure either, because it is not the one in charge, and the incident has never happened before, so everything is full of uncertainty.
Xiao Yan hissed, "I don't care what you think, I care what I feel."
"According to your theory, as long as his heart is filled with love, is he still a human being? He's just a punching bag! Think about it, when others bully and slander him, he still has love in his heart... plus his fate, are they worried that he won't die soon enough?"
The system felt that what Xiao Yan said was right, "But you can't just bully him, he's already so pitiful!"
Xiao Yan said righteously: "You are so petty! How am I torturing him? I am clearly training him! You don't understand missions. Look at the missions in the previous worlds. Which one did I fail to complete? Don't worry, I won't mess it up."
After comforting the system, Xiao Yan looked at Qin Feng with a slightly surprised look: "Don't you think there's something strange here?"
It wasn't that Qin Feng was judging others by his own standards, it was mainly because he had been tormented too many times these days. If Xiao Yan hadn't really done him a favor, even if the favor was forced upon him, it wouldn't change the fact, so he would have endured it again and again.
After hearing what Xiao Yan said, Qin Feng thought for a while and vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he did not feel guilty for wrongly accusing Xiao Yan of doing evil.
This place seems a little too quiet.
It stands to reason that in a village, even if everyone goes out to work during the day, it is impossible for no one to be left behind. Even if everyone is out for something, there should be some noise from the livestock, right?
It is now so quiet that it is almost silent, and there is not even the sound of birds or animals!
Qin Feng hated the human race, but he hated those who harbored malicious intent. He had no liking or aversion towards the defenseless and weak human race. It was like an elephant not caring about the thoughts of ants. As long as they didn't run up to him and shout at him to kill, he generally wouldn't care. That was all.
Living a new life, he already knew in his previous life that most living things in this world, whether human or demon, would harbor malice towards him. Having experienced the dangers of the world, it was a pipe dream for him to be kind enough to help others.
Can……
Qin Feng looked at Xiao Yan, who had been shamelessly making trouble for him time and time again along the way, but now had a look of compassion on his face, and his body paused slightly.
This person is not trying to save the world and the people again! ?
He won't go anyway! He's not a charitable person! What does it have to do with him?
Xiao Yan didn't even look at him. He held on to the edge of the carriage tremblingly, got out of the carriage, panting and staggering with every step, and coughing as he walked.
Walk for a while, stop for a few dozen breaths and cough a few times, walk a few more steps and stop to cough, the longer you walk, the longer you stop, almost walking slowly.
"That's enough, I'm going to see!"
Qin Feng said viciously: "Only this time!"
Xiao Yan exclaimed, not sparing any praise: "You are so thoughtful!"
Qin Feng was indifferent to his praise and disappeared at the intersection in a few seconds.
The system was about to take action, but before it could say anything, Xiao Yan stopped it: "Don't say anything, I have my reasons."
"Can……"
Xiao Yan interrupted: "No buts, you have to believe that I want to complete the mission even more than you do."
"but……"
"No buts, don't worry, I will definitely complete the mission in this world! At least before this body's lifespan runs out!"
system:"……"
The system endured it again and again: "Actually, I just want to say that our department has recently added a new general. This general is a relative of our supervisor, a well-connected person with a lot of connections, and a lot of generals want to build good relationships with him."
It hesitated and said, "Can I take a few days off to attend the welcome party?"
The system assured: "Just a few days, it will be quick!"
Xiao Yan: “…”
Oh, he was overthinking it. He thought the system disagreed with something again...
"Go ahead, have fun, and try to come back before the world ends. There's no need to rush."
The system was touched. "You're so kind! I'll try my best to help you find out what other benefits there are to being a host!"
Xiao Yan didn't care about these things. "Okay, go ahead."
After the system left, about an incense stick of time passed and Qin Feng did not come back. Half an hour later, he still did not come back. Xiao Yan's mouth twitched slightly.
I thought: No way? Could it be that even Qin Feng is in trouble?
He had seen that there were no cultivators nearby. Qin Feng was a cultivator, so if something really happened, how could he be defeated? And there was no movement!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan made a hand gesture and arrived at the village entrance in the blink of an eye.
Just as I had investigated with my spiritual sense before, the village was quiet inside and out, without a sound. Wait, something's wrong!
Xiao Yan looked at the stone tablet on the drying yard in the middle of the village entrance. A faint breath could be seen flowing out from it.
This aura was neither spiritual nor demonic, nor was it demonic either. It was very strange. Even stranger was that Xiao Yan could sense that this aura did not harbor any malicious intent.
Each type of energy created in the world has its own feeling. For example, spiritual energy can make people feel comfortable physically and mentally, demonic energy can intensify the seven emotions and six desires, and the feeling of demonic energy is different. However, this energy does not belong to this world. Even Xiao Yan, who has traveled through various worlds, has never felt it.
Xiao Yan tried to use his spiritual power to transmit it, but he saw a sudden suction force coming from the stone tablet. In the blink of an eye, the scene changed, and he could hear a lot of noise.
"I passed the exam! I passed the exam! I became a juren!" The man who was laughing crazily the previous second burst into tears of joy the next second: "Dad! Mom! I have lived up to everyone's expectations and finally became a juren!"
The old man touched the stone in a daze: "The harvest this year is excellent. Finally, we don't have to worry about starving to death! Old woman, our daughter doesn't have to marry Wang Liu anymore..."
"Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west!" A young man, sword in hand, fought with his back to him, full of vigor and ambition. He continued, "When you chose Qi Sheng as your last disciple, did you ever imagine this day?"
The young man didn't know what he heard, and sneered: "It's too late! You are no longer worthy of being my master!"
Next to him squatted a middle-aged man, holding tightly to a small, drooling dog. His eyes shone with astonishing brightness, and he roared to the heavens in ecstasy, "The Sky-Swallowing Beast! It's actually the Sky-Swallowing Beast! Hahaha! Who dares to look down upon Zhang Wuyong, the King of the City?"
Xiao Yan: “…”
People's joys are not the same. Xiao Yan not only thought these people were noisy, he even thought they were a little crazy.
Judging from this, these people might be trapped in an illusion???
Xiao Yan took a look and saw that there were many people here, both mortals and cultivators. Xiao Yan also saw several cultivators from the sect wearing certain identity badges.
Could it be that all these people entered through the village stone tablet? But that didn't seem right. Even if they did, there were too many people. Furthermore, if more than a certain number of disciples from a sect disappeared, it would inevitably attract attention. Then, an investigation into the scope of the disappearances would reveal the cause. It didn't make sense that with so many people, not a single word of news could be leaked.
Weird, very weird!
