Wind Chime Village.

The night wind was whistling and the bonfire was burning with smoke.

The festive and joyful scene just now seemed to be paused, and the warm smiles on all the villagers' faces disappeared.

The village chief Liu Dashu stood in front of the fainted Qin Gengyun and the others and laughed:

"The holy wine bestowed by the Immortal of Tianyun Sect really has miraculous effects. It's great!"

At this time, a villager asked: "Village head, what should we do with these two men?"

He was referring to Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan, who was disguised as a man.

Liu Dashu subconsciously turned his head to look at Liu Zhen, but saw a stern look in Liu Zhen's eyes. Liu Dashu immediately ordered the villagers:

"Kill these two men, drag their bodies to the mountain and bury them!"

"yes."

It seemed that this was not the first time the villagers had done this, so they agreed immediately.

There were even many people who said happily: "I didn't expect that seven women would come at once. Now we have enough sacrifices to offer to Immortal Tianyun this season."

"We only need to offer five women per season, and this is two more!"

"Yes, now our village will be worry-free for half a year!"

"What a pity! These women are so beautiful. If only they could..."

"Don't mess around, the immortals of Tianyun Mountain want virgins!"

Someone has taken out a sickle and walked towards Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan.

At this time, a middle-aged couple suddenly came forward and knelt in front of Liu Dashu:

"Village chief, since you have captured enough sacrifices, can you please let my daughter go?"

The other villagers were startled, their expressions became complicated, and then several couples in their forties or fifties also knelt in front of Liu Dashu and begged:

"Village Chief, for the sake of the entire Wind Bell Village, we are willing to lock our daughter in your cellar as a spare sacrifice."

"But now that we have captured so many women, there are enough to offer to the Immortal Tianyun this year. Can we release our daughter too?"

From what they said, it seemed that all the young women in the village were locked up in the cellar of Liu Dashu's house, ready to be offered to the Tianyun Sect at any time.

Among them are the daughters of these couples.

Now they want to use Qiu Zhihe and seven other women in exchange for their daughter's life.

Liu Dashu sneered, and the scar on his face became more terrifying:

"The number of offerings this year is indeed enough, but what about next year?"

"This..." Several couples looked at each other.

Liu Dashu continued, "Sacrificing the village's virgins to the immortal of Tianyun Mountain has been the rule of Fengling Village for hundreds of years. Do you want to break the rule?!"

Several people trembled, and a woman with gray hair on her temples begged desperately:

"Village chief, my eldest daughter was sacrificed two years ago. Xiaoyin is my only daughter now. Please let her go!"

Liu Dashu looked down at her coldly: "This is for the whole village. No daughter is an exception!"

He looked around at the villagers, his voice becoming hoarse: "For those who have young daughters at home, I warn you, don't try to secretly send your daughters away, otherwise you will end up like Liu Li and Zhang Cui'er in 25 years!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the villagers fell silent. The middle-aged couples collapsed on the ground with dazed expressions.

Liu Dashu shouted coldly: "Hurry up and do it!"

"yes!"

A group of villagers walked towards Qiu Zhihe and others, preparing to move them to the cellar of the village chief's house and lock them up.

Several other people walked up to Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan and raised the sickles in their hands high.

"well."

Suddenly, a long sigh was heard.

"It seems that there was something else going on back then."

Under the villagers' incredulous gazes, Qin Gengyun slowly stood up, and several women beside him also opened their eyes and slowly stood up.

Their expressions were calm, and the drunken blush on their faces had disappeared.

“You, you guys…”

The villagers were startled and retreated. Liu Dashu raised his hand and pointed at a few people with a ferocious look on his face:

"How is it possible that you weren't knocked out?"

Qin Gengyun ignored him and said to Su Xin: "Senior Sister Su Xin, your feeling is right. There is indeed something wrong with this village."

Su Xin stood tall and graceful, still dignified and gentle, looking at Wei Wan with pity in her eyes:

"I actually hope I'm wrong."

Wei Wan clenched her fists, took a step forward, and said in a trembling voice: "What did you just say about Liu Li and Zhang Cui'er twenty-five years ago?!"

Liu Dashu's face was grim, and he shouted, "What are you standing there for? Come on together!"

The villagers hesitated for a moment, but finally, under Liu Dashu's loud rebuke, they rushed towards the few people shouting.

Qiu Zhihe snorted coldly, and an invisible airflow exploded, sending all the villagers who had rushed up flying backwards. Several of them who were holding sickles had their arms broken and rolled on the ground wailing.

The others were horrified and stepped back, not daring to move forward.

Su Xin couldn't help but said to Qiu Zhihe: "Junior sister, they are just ordinary people, why do you have to be so harsh?"

Qiu Zhihe said calmly: "If someone wants to kill me, I will kill them."

"you……"

Su Xin looked at her blankly. Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling'er beside her looked at each other and trembled a little.

Is it true that Junior Sister Ruo is such a cold-hearted person?

Why does he look so much like... a member of the Demonic Sect?

Wei Wan flashed in front of Liu Dashu and asked, "Twenty-five years ago, what happened to Liu Li, Zhang Cui'er, and their child?"

Liu Dashu was horrified and wanted to escape, but found that he could not move. He quickly shouted to Liu Zhen:

"Master, help me!"

Everyone was shocked to see that the simple and honest look on Liu Zhen's face had disappeared, her black hair was slowly growing longer, and her lower body was beginning to twist and deform.

The two legs turned into four legs, each leg became thick, grew thick hair, and had sharp claws.

The upper body still had that human face, but the mouth had become longer and had boar-like fangs.

“Ah!!”

The monster let out a deafening roar towards the sky, and a powerful airflow burst out, blowing down most of the houses in the village.

"Human face, pig teeth, tiger mouth... the ancient demon beast, Taowu!"

Su Xin was shocked and recognized the monster.

Qiu Zhihe sneered: "The Record of Heavenly Beasts: Taowu Volume, has half a human body, no wonder he can disguise himself as a human and hide his aura."

Liusu sighed: "How ugly!"

"This aura... is almost the same as that of the Nascent Soul Stage One, so strong!"

Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling'er were both stunned, and quickly took out their magical swords, ready for battle.

Su Hongling snorted and picked up her big hammer: "This is a bit interesting."

Qiu Zhihe suddenly said, "Su Hongling, don't do it."

Su Hongling glared at her: "Why?!"

Qiu Zhihe glanced at her and said, "You are no longer worthy of being a sparring partner. Monsters are much stronger than cultivators, so they are perfect for my husband to continue practicing with."

"you……"

Su Hongling pointed at her, and Qiu Zhihe said:

"After this matter is over, I will fight with you once."

"Okay! Don't regret it!"

Su Hongling finally gave up, and Qiu Zhihe said to Qin Gengyun:

"My dear, this person has already practiced the Heavenly Beast Record to the eighth level. He is the most suitable opponent for you. You can go all out!"

Qin Gengyun grinned: "My wife has put a lot of effort into this, I will not let you down!"

Qiu Zhihe's cheeks turned slightly red, and she glared at him: "You are so smooth-talking, be careful."

Qin Gengyun smiled at her, then turned and walked in front of the ancient ferocious beast with monstrous rage.
