Chapter 217: Demon!?
At the end of the night, the warm sunlight has just spread over the cold earth, but the periphery of the "Twilight Leaf Ancient Forest" is already full of people!
I saw that they all didn't dare to believe in the long neck, looking at the once beautiful "Twilight Leaf Ancient Forest" in front of them, dumbfounded, and their faces were full of shock!
Overnight, half of the trees in this huge forest, which was beautiful yesterday, are now dead and lifeless!
Half of the fiery red forest, which used to be like "twilight clouds falling", has turned into a dead black at this moment, and has turned into a bleak scene of "dark clouds"!
How can such a horrible thing not be shocking!?
"Oh my God...... Oh my God...... It's just one night...... This...... This forest! This good forest! How did it become like this!?"
An old gentleman dressed as a scribe muttered to himself tremblingly!
Not far from him, a middle-aged man with a short figure of five years, dressed in a leather coat, seemed to be a hunter!
When he heard the old gentleman's words, he couldn't help but "tsk" twice, and then said, "Old gentleman, you live in that twilight city, right?"
The old gentleman listened to the Orion's words, and replied politely: "Yes! The old man did live in the Twilight Leaf City last night, and he wanted to come to this 'Twilight Leaf Ancient Forest' to enjoy it today, but he didn't expect it...... Alas!"
The hunter smiled and replied in a low voice: "That's right! You live in the city, so you don't know! I tell you, this last night, there were monsters in this forest!"
"Youkai!?" said the old gentleman, whose body trembled, and his old face was full of fear, "What...... What youkai!?"
When Orion saw that the old man was afraid, his heart became even more proud, and he shook his head and said, "You don't know! Last night! In the depths of this forest, there was a terrible howl! Oh my God! I have been a hunter for most of my life, and I have never killed anything...... But yesterday's cry was the worst and most terrible cry I've ever heard in my life! We hunters were camping and sleeping on the outskirts of the woods, and we were awakened by this howl! We were all frightened at the time! We thought it was haunted!"
The old gentleman was fascinated by this, and when he saw that the hunter had stopped, he hurriedly urged: "Say!
At this time, many people on the side also heard the words here, and they all surrounded them curiously, that Orion is a person who loves to brag and talk, and when he saw so many people waiting to hear what he said, he couldn't help but have a smug face!
He cleared his throat and said even harder: "When we woke up, the screams stopped! We all agreed that it might be a fight between demon beasts, and there was a wail from the dying demon beasts! Originally, we ordinary people naturally couldn't afford to provoke that ferocious demon beast, so we didn't want to pay attention to it! But in our group of people, there were two guys who thought they were good at cultivation and had great courage! They felt that there was a demon beast calling like that, which meant that the evil beast was already at the end of the crossbow, and maybe it had been killed! So the two of them wanted to go over and take a look to see if they could pick up a bargain, although the 'spirit bead' may have been poached by other demon beasts, but if they picked up the corpse of that demon beast, they could also sell it for a fortune!"
"So! Those two money-obsessed fellows didn't listen to persuasion, so they had to go, and we couldn't stop them, so we had to follow them! But it didn't take long for us to see these two guys fleeing back! As if they had seen a ghost, they were so frightened that they couldn't say a word! Finally, they came back, and when they told us that, we were also shocked!"
Everyone was listening energetically, and when they saw that he had stopped, they immediately shouted again and again, and were very dissatisfied!
"Don't gasp for breath!
"Yes, say it, say it!"
"What the hell is going on!?"
......
Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, the hunter laughed and continued: "It turns out that these two people have just approached the depths of the 'Twilight Ancient Forest', and they found that the great trees that have grown in the forest for thousands of years have all died one after another! Not to mention how weird it is! And when they were in a daze, they suddenly heard an extremely terrifying whining, and then they heard a child say gloomily: 'You mortals, don't be here, leave quickly, or the deity will eat you alive!'!" The two guys were frightened at that time, and when they looked up, they saw a huge terrifying black shadow not far away, and they couldn't see what it was! They just saw blood-red eyes and big claws, how scary and terrifying it was! The two guys turned around and ran, but fortunately, the monster didn't chase after them, and these two unlucky guys escaped with their lives! When we heard this, we didn't dare to stay in the forest for a long time, so we hurriedly cleaned up and left the forest overnight!"
As soon as everyone heard him finish, they all looked embarrassed, and they turned their heads to each other!
"What a sin! Such a beautiful forest has been half destroyed!"
"Yes, but this demon is really powerful, and I don't know what means it used to destroy half of the forest overnight!?"
Some people also asked: "There is such a rit as a demon, there is no master to clean it up!?"
At this time, the old gentleman smiled, shook his head and said, "Descendants, you don't know this, do you? A few days ago, there was a thunder in the forest at night, you know!?"
Everyone nodded, and the old gentleman continued: "That thunder has almost attracted all the masters around this 'Twilight Leaf Ancient Forest', one of them is the famous 'Demon Slayer God Sect' Right Protector, 'Wine Sword Xuanzun' Yan Xinglie!"
Someone asked puzzledly: "What Yan Xinglie is this, what does it have to do with us about this!?"
The old gentleman snorted, and said with some pretentious knowledge: "Later life is ignorant! That 'Wine Sword Xuanzun' Yan Xinglie is a strong man who has entered the Holy Realm, and he is also one of the few big people in Dongzhou! This Yan Xinglie is not only extremely high in cultivation, but also has a fiery temper, is jealous and evil, and is both righteous and evil, and does his own thing, and is known as 'Yan Lao Crazy'! In the entire Dongzhou, few people dare to provoke! He suddenly appeared that night, and he didn't know what happened, so he scared all the strong people away! So these days' There's no big guy in Twilight City, I'm afraid, no one will come to subdue the demon today!"
Only then did everyone understand, only the hunter suddenly smiled and said: "Old man, I'm afraid you're wrong! I've been guarding outside this forest, and not long ago, two strong men have entered the forest to subdue demons!"
The old gentleman was slightly stunned, and then smiled a little embarrassedly, "Yes......! That's good! That's good!"
