Seeing that the child finally stopped crying and was willing to listen to her, Lilia asked him about it.
"Did your village encounter an attack by a monster?"
Hearing this, the child's eyes turned red again and he was about to cry again.
Seeing this, Lilia hurriedly comforted him and said, "Don't cry first. Tell us what happened first. Maybe we can help you."
Lilia and Lingyu not only did not hurt him, but were also willing to help him, so the child sniffed and sobbed, "This morning, a group of monsters suddenly ran out of the forest on the mountain. They bit everyone they saw and ate everyone in the village. I am the only one left."
When the child mentioned this, he thought of his parents and tears couldn't stop flowing.
In fact, he had never seen what the monsters that attacked the village looked like. It was his parents who told him about this.
"Lingyu, let's take him to see Sister Lingyu and the others first, and tell everyone about this matter." Lilia said to Lingyu.
After all, it’s such a big thing, they need to tell everyone.
Besides, she was also worried that if everyone didn't know that she and Lingyu were here and didn't wait for them, they would have to go find everyone then.
After she finished speaking, she looked at the child again and said to him, "We are from Xuantian Sect. We will take you to meet Sister Lingyu and the others later."
The child was young and lived in such a remote mountain village, so he had never heard of the name of Xuantian Sect and could only nod ignorantly.
Lilia said: "Come on my back. You can't fly. I will carry you."
The child heard this and stammered, "Fly... fly?"
As for flying, the child had only heard about it from his parents. It was said that fairies could fly, but he had never seen it and thought it was just something adults said to coax children.
"Yes, take you flying." Lilia nodded.
The child was excited to hear that he could fly in the sky, and his previous sadness was alleviated a lot by this news.
After all, he was just a child and was always curious about new things. Moreover, he had only heard of flying in rumors, so his attention was attracted by Lilia's words.
However, before Lilia could take him to find Xiao Lingyu and the others, they showed up.
"Lilia!" Xiao Lingyu and the others jumped off the flying boat and came to them.
"Sister Lingyu, why are you here?" Lilia didn't expect them to come to her.
"Master!" Lingyu saw Lilia and shouted at her happily.
"We saw that you hadn't caught up with us for a long time, so we decided to come and look for you." Xiao Lingyu explained.
Originally, they were behind Lilia and Lingyu. When Lilia and Lingyu walked towards them, they thought they just ran a little far away and didn't take it seriously at first. Later, they saw that the two little guys didn't catch up for such a long time, so they were worried that something went wrong, so they followed this direction to look for them.
At first, they did not smell the blood. After all, although the taste buds of monks are sensitive, they are definitely not as good as those of spirit beasts and demon beasts. They only smelled it after they were about seven or eight miles away.
At first they thought that Lilia and Lingyu were in danger and were very worried. However, as they got closer to the village, they realized that the smell of blood came from the village, which must mean something happened in the village.
As for the child, when he saw Xiao Lingyu and his group, he was stunned, staring at them blankly. After a long time, he reacted and shouted excitedly: "Immortal, Immortal!"
As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Lingyu and the others, begging, "Immortal, please avenge our village and kill those monsters that hurt people, so that they won't come out to hurt people again..."
Xiao Lingyu and his companions are often called immortals. Mortals in some places do not know what cultivators are and regard cultivators as immortals, and are extremely awed by them.
"We are not immortals, but cultivators of the immortal way. You should get up first and we can talk slowly if you have anything to say."
Li Chenfeng stepped forward and helped up the child who was kneeling on the ground.
With his help, the child got up from the ground, wiped his tears and looked at them hopefully.
These people who came down from the sky must be the immortals his parents had mentioned. Immortals are so powerful that they will surely be able to avenge his relatives and kill all those man-eating monsters.
The little boy wiped the tears from his face and repeated what he had just said to Lilia.
Although everyone had already guessed about 70% of what was going on when they saw them approaching the village, they still felt sad after hearing what the child said.
"What a poor child." Xiao Lingyu sighed as he looked at the child with sympathy.
He was the only one left in the whole village, how pitiful.
Although she often heard of villages being attacked by monsters and all the people in the village being killed by monsters, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.
Because there is a barrier between the world of cultivation and the mortal world, monsters cannot pass through the barrier and enter the mortal world, so monsters only live in the world of cultivation, and they are distributed everywhere in the world of cultivation.
A village like this is easily attacked by monsters because it is built close to where monsters live. The villagers are all mortals who cannot practice cultivation and cannot subdue even the lowest level monsters. Therefore, once they are attacked by monsters, they can only do nothing and become their food.
"What's your name? How old are you?" Li Chenfeng asked.
The child heard this and told him his name.
