"Where is King Kong?"
Su Feng was somewhat surprised. Wasn't that big guy usually the type to stay on the rooftop watching the moon and the sun? Why was he nowhere to be seen now?
Zhao Wuxie smiled and said, "Jin Gang and Hei Yue went to play in the mountains. I noticed they seemed a bit bored staying here, so I sent them out for some fresh air."
Is there such a thing?
Su Feng was immediately troubled.
King Kong was nowhere to be found at this crucial moment.
I tried to use my senses to find the location of King Kong, but there was no trace of him within several miles... He must have gone off to play somewhere quite far away.
Although Su Feng wasn't worried that King Kong would get lost...
"Never mind." Su Feng sighed.
It's not that it's absolutely necessary.
He looked up at Zhao Wuxie and said, "Brother Wuxie, could you come with me? There's something I need to ask of you."
"Ok?"
Seeing Su Feng's serious expression, Zhao Wuxie immediately suppressed his smile. "Young Master Su, please speak freely."
……
When Uncle Jiu and his companions returned to Jiuquan Town, the sun had already set.
They didn't expect it to take so long.
After finding the dragon-slaying corpse on the mountain, they found a quiet place to bury it. There was no tombstone or funeral ceremony; they simply dug a pit.
This can be considered the final destination of the dragon slayer.
"Master, let's go get something to eat."
Qiu Shengwen was exhausted after a long day and wanted to find a place to have a couple of drinks.
But the current dire situation in Jiuquan Town does not allow them to be so complacent.
"Okay, after you finish eating, you can walk around the area and make sure everything is alright before going back to rest." Uncle Nine nodded and turned to look at Chen Yue and Chen Xing in front of him.
"Ladies, it's getting late, you should..."
Uncle Nine was stunned halfway through his sentence.
He noticed that Chen Yue and Chen Xing were standing in front of him, seemingly unresponsive to what he had just said.
"Two young ladies?... What's wrong?"
Uncle Nine walked forward curiously.
"Uncle Jiu, please wait..."
Chen Xing suddenly stretched out a hand and stopped Uncle Jiu.
They stood in the middle of the deserted street, their eyes fixed on the deep passageway ahead.
It seemed as if something in the distance was stirring restlessly...
"Uncle, have you noticed anything amiss ahead?" Chen Yue frowned, her face expressionless. "...Danger is approaching."
Swish, swish, swish——
From the dimly lit street corner, a dense cloud of purple mist slowly drifted out, gradually encroaching on every street and intersection.
It will devour the houses it passes by, and surround any living thing it sees...
Within that purple aura lay endless and terrifying demonic energy!
As the aura drew near, Uncle Nine's hair stood on end, and his brain sent out a dangerous signal.
Yes!
He sensed it too!
That feeling of fear that rose from the bottom of my heart!
"Back off! Back off!"
Without a moment to think, Uncle Nine quickly gave the order, turning around and pulling Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai back to avoid them.
Chen Yue and Chen Xing also turned around hastily. Their intuition told them that the smoke spreading ahead was extremely dangerous! If they inhaled even a little bit, something bad might happen!
But it was too late. When they turned around, they found that the street they had just walked through was also filled with purple energy, rapidly closing in on the five of them in a pincer movement.
Snap——
Snap——
In the mist, all the doors of every house opened at this moment, and the simple residents twisted their bodies and walked out in strange postures.
They seemed to be crawling on the ground... or rather, wriggling.
"what happened?"
"What's going on here?"
Chen Yue and Chen Xing witnessed the situation around them and couldn't help but ask questions.
Uncle Nine's face darkened further, and he suddenly remembered something Su Feng had said not long ago, and his eyes widened.
"Oh no! It's a Western devil!"
"This is demonic energy! Everyone be careful, don't get controlled!"
The missionaries who died in the church yesterday were controlled by this demonic energy, which led them to kill each other, ultimately resulting in a tragedy.
He just didn't expect it to happen again!
According to his and Su Feng's original guess, even if the Western demons were released, they would need some time to replenish their magic power and it would be impossible for them to launch an attack so quickly.
But they were all wrong!
That's ridiculously wrong!
Right now, the entire town of Jiuquan has become a playground for the Western devils! And the residents have all been corrupted and turned into their demonic soldiers!
Da da da--
In the middle of the road, the crowd slowly approached.
Security team members were among them, standing crookedly, walking in unsteadily like zombies.
Without exception, their pupils turned purple, stained with the madness called despair!
"Oh my God!"
"Master, what should we do?"
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were terrified, cowering behind Uncle Jiu, completely bewildered by the situation around them.
"Quickly use the Purification Mantra!"
Chen Yuechenxing acted decisively, remembering Su Feng's teachings, and quickly recited the incantation to cast the Purifying Heart Mantra.
This mantra can purify the mind, ward off evil and difficulties, and also purify the soul from disturbance.
However, they weren't sure if it would be effective against the overwhelming demonic energy!
But there is no other choice now!
The surrounding streets have been blocked by purple mist, so we have no choice but to take a gamble!
Uncle Nine also cast the Purifying Heart Mantra, and his body was soon covered with a faint spiritual light.
Under the influence of the divine incantation, the approach of the purple aura seemed to have no effect on them.
only……
"Master, we...we don't know how!"
Qiu Shengwen panicked.
It seemed that in this crisis, they were the only ones left far behind, all alone.
"Tsk! Didn't I tell you all to cultivate diligently?!"
Uncle Nine almost fainted.
Why are these two apprentices so troublesome?
"me……"
As the smoke drew closer, Wencai was so anxious he was almost in tears.
Qiu Sheng, standing to the side, was searching for a place to escape, but he discovered that the smoke was forming a circle that converged towards the center, meaning there was no opening.
"Take it!"
Just then, Uncle Nine took out a talisman from his pocket and threw it into the hands of the two of them.
"This is a talisman that Young Master Su gave me, and it works just as well! Put it on quickly!"
But... there's only one!
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai looked at each other in disbelief. What they held in their hands was not a protective talisman at all, but a tool to separate the two of them, named "Only one of the two can live!"
"Hey, what are you all standing there for? Just make sure one of you wears it and the other stays close to you!"
Uncle Nine seemed to sense their troubles and quickly added.
As they talked, the smoke gradually gathered...
Time was of the essence, and there was no time for the two of them to hesitate. Qiu Sheng hung the talisman around his neck and then carried Wen Cai on his back.
Soon, the amulet sensed the surrounding aura and emitted a spiritual light, enveloping the two of them.
The smoke drew closer, eventually covering the center of Jiuquan Town and completely enveloping everything.
"It worked! We're actually alright!"
Qiu Shengwen exclaimed excitedly.
The sight of the two of them pressed chest to back was truly comical.
But this joy was short-lived, as Uncle Nine pulled him to the back, shouting, "You all better watch out! The danger has only just begun!"
