Chapter 45: The Cheated Raider

Nan Wang pasted the white paper on his forehead again, carried a basket covered with white cloth and went to the inn where the fox fairy was staying.

The fox fairy's residence is the best inn in the village. In order to prevent mortals from entering and leaving and disturbing the fox fairy, the entire inn is booked to serve the fox fairy alone.

Right now, the entire Shang State is busy with the Xianhu Terrace. People are busy burning bricks, filling the land, or mining. They have no spare energy to do anything else. The inn in Qingshi Village has been abandoned for several years.

In order to welcome the Fox Fairy, the government captured strong men to work overnight to repair the inn, and finally made it presentable before the Fox Fairy's arrival.

When Nanwang entered the house, the fox fairy was furious.

"You damned mortal, you actually neglected this immortal!"

"You're giving me something so disgusting? Get lost!"

"What a shabby place, a barren land!"

The villagers knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, trembling in fear.

The immortal servants stood by quietly like soulless puppets, not saying a word.

Nan Wang walked silently to the fox fairy's side, leaned over and whispered a few words.

The fox fairy's eyes lit up: "Okay, I knew you were smart! Show me now!"

Nanwang lifted a corner of the white cloth on the bamboo basket to let the fox fairy see the bloody piece of meat in the basket, and then said awkwardly: "Master Fox Fairy, are you really going to do this in front of all these..."

"Yes, yes, yes, I forgot all about it."

The fox fairy jumped off the chair and scolded the mortal in the room:

"Everyone, get out of here! No one is allowed to enter this place without my order!"

Nanwang added: "You should get out of the inn as soon as possible, the farther the better, so as not to affect the mood of Master Fox Fairy!"

The official sent by the government to protect the fox fairy looked embarrassed and asked, "Master Fox Fairy, I have received an order to protect your safety at all times..."

The fox fairy waved her hands impatiently and said, "Why don't you just go guard the door of the inn and don't let anyone in?"

"That's... okay."

At the insistence of the fox fairy, the officials were forced to leave the inn, and only the fairy servants continued to stay.

When everyone had left, the fox fairy no longer concealed herself and pounced on the basket in Nanwang's hand, her eyes gleaming and her face showing a ferocious look.

Saliva dripped from the fox's sharp mouth, wetting the white cloth on the surface of the bamboo basket.

Nanwang put the bamboo basket on the table, stepped back half a step, and said respectfully: "Immortal, I am afraid that you are not enough. In addition to the little kid, I also killed several mortals and dug out a basket full of their hearts."

When he took Ping An away, the fox fairy told him to "keep the best part", referring to the heart beating in Ping An's chest.

In the Fairy Fox Secret Realm, the fox fairies feed on human hearts, and human hearts are the source of their magical powers.

If the immortal cultivators who are conquering the secret realm are careless for a moment, they may be dug out of their hearts and killed by these "fox immortals" just like the mortals in the secret realm.

"Okay, okay, okay..."

The fox fairy lifted the white cloth, pierced a bloody heart with its sharp claws, and stuffed it into its mouth, with a look of satisfaction on its face.

Nanwanghou watched the fox fairy eat silently without saying a word.

Ping An was naturally fine, he was just chatting with the village chief at the moment.

These "human hearts" in the bamboo basket are nothing more than the hearts of pigs that died of swine fever in the village some time ago.

In places where it is impossible to make fire, not only is it difficult for humans to survive, but animals are also more likely to get sick.

In order to prevent the fox fairy from discovering anything, Nan Wang cut his wrist to let the blood drip onto the pig hearts and use the human scent to confuse the fox fairy.

Nan Wang was, after all, an immortal cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage. His blood was much more delicious than that of ordinary mortals. It was more than enough for him to seduce this fox fairy who had never eaten a human heart.

The fox fairies that appeared at the beginning of the secret realm were all low-level fox fairies who had never eaten human hearts. Any mortal with strong physical fitness could fight against them.

However, during the inspection of civilian projects, low-level fox fairies will try every means to kill people and eat their hearts. Once they succeed, their demonic power will increase greatly and they will become high-level fox fairies. The methods of high-level fox fairies are more brutal, and it is easier for them to see through the disguises of the attackers. For those monks who have only cultivated Qi, if they face high-level fox fairies head-on, they will most likely die.

What the attacker has to do is to seize the time to help the villagers complete the acceptance and not give the fox spirits the opportunity to devour people's hearts in large numbers.

Nan Wang knew all this important information clearly without any investigation. After all, he was a person who had a good understanding of the plot.

As for the eldest senior sister and third senior brother who were not dead... Nanwang had already sent a message to them via messenger birds.

Although Nanwang didn't know the region and specific identities of the senior sisters, the entire Shang Kingdom was busy with the affairs of Xianhu Terrace. No matter where the attackers were randomly assigned to, they had to do almost the same things.

Given the "status" of the eldest senior sister and the third senior brother in their respective sects, I believe they will be able to quickly inform the disciples in their respective sects of the information that Nanwang conveyed to them.

To some extent, Nanwang is taking a different approach to lead everyone to explore the secret realm...

“Delicious, so delicious!”

As the fox fairy ate, he went completely crazy. He jumped onto the table and used his hands and feet to stuff the bloody meat into his mouth.

Such ugliness makes anyone see that "Lord Fox Fairy" is more like a beast that has become a spirit than a god from heaven.

This is also the reason why the fox spirits, even though they have already controlled the local government and villagers through the imperial power, still have to avoid being seen when they eat people's hearts.

Fox fairies do not trust mortals, and only believe in the "fairy servants" headed by Nanwang.

only……

Nan Wang, who has read the original novel, also knows how to deal with the immortal servants.

The immortal servants were originally mortals with great martial arts skills. They were harmed and had their hearts eaten by the fox immortals for various reasons. After their death, the fox immortals would implant monster insects in their empty chests, turning them into "immortal servants" who were obedient and loyal to the fox immortals.

The parasite infestation of worms is very difficult, and not everyone can succeed, but the method to remove worms is very simple.

After the monster is formed, it will condense into an imperceptible golden hair behind the head of the person being parasitized.

Once the golden hair is pulled out, the monster will die immediately, and the possessed person will regain consciousness and be freed from the manipulated situation. However, when the monster dies, the life of the possessed person will also quickly fade away, and he will die suddenly within a breath.

However, for those who have tried hard to live, dying with dignity is their best destination rather than becoming the minions of the fox fairy who slaughter the mortal world like a half-human.

When the fox fairy was eating the "human heart" in ecstasy, Nanwang successfully went behind it and plucked out the golden hair behind the heads of all the fairy servants.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, a series of rising and falling "thumping" sounds were heard in the house.

That was the sound of knees hitting the ground.

"I beg you to come from afar and save Shang from the dire situation!"

The immortal servants knelt on the ground and spoke in unison.

Nanwang solemnly promised:

"Don't worry, you have a country to save, and I have people to save. I swear on my life to kill the fox demon and burn the deer platform!"

The immortal servants nodded with emotion and wanted to say something, but it was too late.

Blood oozed from their mouths and noses, and their heartless chests collapsed along with their entire bodies.

"You, you are a raider..."

The fox fairy, who was enjoying the feast, finally discovered something unusual.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

As soon as it jumped off the table, it felt its hands and feet go limp and it had no strength to use.

“Help, help…”

The cry for help was so faint that it could not be heard outside the inn.

The fox fairy knew that his death was near, so he tried his best to crawl out. However, after he had taken only two steps, his eyes rolled back and he completely lost consciousness.

A lethal dose of knockout drug was added to the "human heart", which could even knock down an elephant, let alone the fox fairy who was no different from an ordinary human being at this moment.

Nan Wang squatted down slowly, feeling troubled by the unconscious fox fairy.

Logically speaking, he should now set fire to the fox fairy and burn her to death, then get the pass to the Fairy Fox Platform from her and head directly to the second stage of the secret realm.

According to the original work, project acceptance is the first stage of the secret realm, which will last for seven days. The attackers must try their best to let the project pass the acceptance of the fox fairy and get a pass to enter the Fairy Fox Terrace from the fox fairy, so as to enter the second stage of the secret realm and explore the mystery of the Fairy Fox Terrace.

The correct approach is to ensure that the project passes acceptance.

However, Qingshi Village is a special village, which is also mentioned in the original book - the task assigned to Qingshi Village is impossible to complete, which echoes the phenomenon of missing floor tiles in Xianhu Terrace after its completion.

If the attacker assigned to Qingshi Village was someone else, he would most likely face failure in the attack and be kicked out of the secret realm, with his cultivation greatly reduced. Fortunately, the person who came here was Nanwang, and he was very familiar with all the ways to attack the secret realm.

Even if there are strategies that are not written in the book, Nanwang is also very clear about them - there are many experts in the comment section who analyze the plot direction and possibilities word by word.

Since the acceptance mission cannot be completed, the best way to pass the level is to kill the fox fairy and seize the pass.

However, there are still six days left until the end of the first phase. If the fox fairy is burned to death now, there is no guarantee that the government will not report this to their higher authorities, and by then a new fox fairy will be arranged to take over Qingshi Village.

But as for sparing the fox fairy's life, Nan Wang absolutely could not do it. Things had already turned out like this. If the fox fairy was saved, he, Nan Wang, might be the one to die.

Nan Wang muttered to himself, "How about I chop off the fox fairy's head, hollow it out and make a headgear, then use some disguise tricks to slightly adjust it, and pretend to be a fox fairy for a few days?"

"No."

A strange yet familiar voice came from the void.

Nan Wang turned around in surprise and saw a white mist that was changing rapidly.

After condensing several times, a creature that looked exactly like the Fox Fairy walked out of the white mist.

The sound of the creature's mouth was exactly the same as that of the fox fairy.

"Kill him, and I will take over the identity of the fox fairy, and you continue to be your fairy servant."
