Chapter 56 -56: Silence (Seeking Monthly Ticket Followers)
Chen Yuan’s Heart Eye perceived, radiating cold light.
Evil spirits and monsters, nowhere to hide.
Then he stamped his foot and soared into the air like a cannonball, shooting directly towards the southwest.
Like a ferocious tiger running down the mountain, carrying with it the roaring sound of the air, leaping hundreds of meters at a time.
After a few leaps, he crashed down onto the peak of a mountain.
Rocks shattered and flew, an alarmed scream arose.
A man with a bruised nose and swollen face, wounded all over, was desperately fleeing for his life but abruptly stopped, shouting in panic.
Then, retreating hurriedly, he fell to the ground, shocked and terrified.
Hook Nose looked at the towering and fierce figure before him with frightened eyes, his fear growing boundless.
His own master and that strong Bull Demon had barely managed a few moves against this opponent.
Heads chopped off, bodies crushed.
The overwhelming murderous aura incited soul-deep dread.
He was a true demon!
He quickly scrambled up and knelt forward proficiently.
Perhaps too agitated, he even slid forward by a foot or so.
Lifting his head with a smile uglier than crying, he stammered:
“Mountain…
Mountain Lord, no no no, Military Officer Captain.”
“I have eyes but failed to recognize your True Body.”
“I have never harmed anyone, I joined the Feixian Sect because I was forced by that beast, not by the master.”
He sought to save his own life by decisively betraying his master, what fault did he have?
But Chen Yuan merely looked down at him with high disdain.
He stamped his foot.
The ground cracked open instantly, a killing intent spreading rapidly towards Hook Nose like lightning.
The next second, his body tore apart like silk.
Split into two!
But it wasn’t over yet, Chen Yuan’s piercing tiger eyes gazed towards another area, and his figure frenziedly moved.
Charging towards the further west.
A mile away, hidden in the woods, the pair of grandmother and granddaughter saw the towering demon shadow surge rapidly towards them.
The old and young both changed their expressions.
They had witnessed the whole process.
The Mountain Lord’s fierceness deeply imprinted in their minds, soul-shaking, truly terrifying.
“Grandma!” The girl Wanwan’s complexion turned ashen, instinctively grabbing the old woman’s hand, intending to flee.
The old woman, frightened, quickly grabbed her granddaughter, knowing that if they ran, it could lead to misunderstandings—considering the ferocity of the Mountain Patrol Military Officer, it was chilling to even think about the consequences.
She steadied the girl, patted her hand, saying:
“Military Officer Captain patrolling the region brings blessings to the people, he will not make things difficult for us, the granddaughter and grandmother.”
The old woman seemed also to be giving herself a reason, her cloudy eyes flashing with a strange light.
The Military Officer Captain had killed the Bull Demon, could they perhaps ask him to return their family token?
Just as the grandmother and granddaughter felt uneasy, a shadow grew from small to large and with a loud crash landed in the forest before them.
Stones flew, and grass and trees scattered.
A pair of huge tiger eyes met the eyes of the grandmother and granddaughter hiding in the tree.
For a moment, they felt as if they were being stared down by an ancient ferocious beast, causing an oppressive suffocation in their chests.
If not for knowing that this was the local Mountain Patrol Military Officer, they would have almost thought this was a true, completely ferocious demon!
The old woman tried to calm her breathing, pulling her granddaughter, they slowly bowed down before Chen Yuan, speaking with respectful tone and full etiquette.
“The old woman and her granddaughter pay respect to the Military Officer Captain!”
“Great Officer with Divine Skills, Demon Slayer, you are admirable!”
“Who are you?
What are you doing here?” Chen Yuan didn’t pursue the conversation, his tiger eyes surveying the old and young pair, his throat emitting a deep sound.
The old one was at the Third Realm, but her clean energy was extremely weakened.
As for the young girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, with Qi Refining Great Success.
Sneakily hiding here, watching from the sidelines, while these people and demons fought to the death.
“The old body and granddaughter are from Yan State.
We came here because that Bull Demon robbed our family possessions, hence we followed it here.”
The old woman hesitated for a moment while saying this.
She didn’t specify the family token.
The family token, as precious as her own life, the less others knew the better.
She doesn’t trust others.
If the purpose of the token is known, it will inevitably arouse the greed and covetousness of those with ulterior motives.
Saying that, the old woman’s turbid eyes flashed as she tentatively requested:
“Since the Captain has slain this subordinate, could you allow me and my granddaughter to retrieve our belongings?”
But to Chen Yuan, hearing that this pair came for the Bull Demon, it meant something entirely different in his ears.
Today’s battle brought him “sweet gains”.
At the moment, with surging waves lurking in the shadows and crises abound, he still needed to use the identity of the Mountain Lord, or rather the Demon, to divert attention.
Thus, he had to lock down the news.
As for this grandparent and grandchild pair, whose origins were unknown, who could say if they were good or evil?
He had no way to verify.
Faced with the anxious and earnest gazes of the pair, Chen Yuan could only apologize for the offense.
His eyes then flashed coldly, and he reached out to grab the pair.
A giant tiger’s claw formed into a raging wind.
“Why is the Captain doing this?”
The old woman’s face changed, and she quickly retreated, a surge of clean energy emerging from within her, wrapping up her granddaughter and transforming into a streak of light speeding away.
But the raging wind was faster!
Soon, the wind enveloped the pair.
Following that, Chen Yuan’s lips moved up and down, muttering some sort of spell.
When the gale subsided, the place where the grandparent and grandchild had been was empty.
There were only two sheep.
One old, one young.
“Baa”
“Baa”
The panicked bleats of the sheep suggested terror.
Chen Yuan looked at the pair, his tiger’s claw swiping over them without hesitation.
A few breaths later, his figure emerged in a mountain valley.
He strolled slowly on a mountainside.
The next second, a cold glint flickered in his tiger eyes.
“Sneaking around, show yourself!”
Amidst his rebuke, a silver light flashed in his eyes.
Not far away, someone hiding was forced to reveal themselves.
It was a goat-bearded old man!
“It’s you!”
A sharp light flashed in Chen Yuan’s eyes, somewhat surprised.
It turned out to be the storyteller he had noticed earlier.
If this storyteller were to spread the day’s events, that would be unimaginable.
Without saying a word, the tiger’s claw reached directly for him.
The storyteller, seeing his Invisibility Technique broken, showed shock in his eyes and was about to speak.
But then he saw Chen Yuan make his move, and a fierce wind blew up.
The goat-bearded old man cried out in misunderstanding, and then a book flew out from his sleeve.
Its pages flipped swiftly before him.
A mysterious golden light flickered…
Then, a shadowy, towering figure was about to emerge from the book.
A strange light flashed in Chen Yuan’s eyes, and he pressed down hard with his hand.
A roaring wind surged.
The vague figure was forcibly pushed back into the book.
The storyteller let out a bizarre cry.
Subsequently, he turned into a mountain goat with a long beard.
Chen Yuan looked at the goat, his eyes filled with astonishment.
The man’s technique just now seemed to have been summoning some sort of person from within the book?
He became even more curious about the storyteller’s methods.
However, pressing matters took priority.
Chen Yuan herded his three sheep, quickly returning to Tiger Jump Gorge!
