Chapter 837

But their eyes were filled with terror.

They had seen something horrifying.

At this moment.

A peasant woman cowered behind a massive wooden barrel, trembling with her child labeled "Five Seven Three."

She stared fearfully into the distance.

It seemed they were hiding from something. "Mother, will we be saved?" Behind the woman.

A little boy asked his mother.

"Of course!"

"Don't make a sound!"

"We will definitely be saved!"

The peasant woman signaled her son to stay silent.

But her terrified eyes,

and her trembling body, revealed she was also in extreme panic.

As for whether they could be saved,

she didn't know.

All she could do was comfort her child.

"Mm!"

Hearing her mother's words,

the child nodded obediently.

He clutched something tightly in his hand.

With firm determination.

His hand held,

seemingly, a wooden statue.

It depicted a black-armored man riding a divine dragon.

As if the statue granted him courage.

"Hehehe, are you looking for me?"

Suddenly, a chilling voice sounded beside the peasant woman and her son.

It was a voice brimming with icy dread.

Utterly horrifying.

As if rising from the depths of hell.

Coldness surged from the peasant woman's heart!

The next instant!

"Ah!"

A piercing scream echoed through the entire village. "Hehehehe!"

Accompanied by a horrifying laugh.

At this moment,

at the village entrance, two Beast Tamer were inspecting villagers collapsed in dark green-black hues. "They still seem alive!!"

"But they also appear dead!"

"It's as if their Three Souls and Seven Spirits have all left their bodies!" "We have no way to save them!" "If this continues, they'll die soon!" Around the two Beast Tamers stood several Phantom Beasts, two of which emitted faint white light.

One was a massive black cat.

Like a giant tiger.

The other glowing one had a dog's head

but a body resembling a human.

"Damn it, why are so many vengeful spirits and evil ghost-type Phantom Beasts appearing?!" "The higher-ups ordered us here to rescue them—looks like we're too late!" Another Beast Tamer shouted angrily.

At this moment! "Ah!"

A piercing scream rang through the entire village.

Along with a horrifying, chilling laugh.

Instantly, the two Beast Tamers were startled.

They looked up in horror.

"Quick, over there!" The next instant,

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Their bodies moved swiftly,

racing toward the source of the sound with their Phantom Beasts.

"Souls—how delicious these souls are!"

"Hehehe, surrender your souls to me!"

At this moment,

a peasant woman fled in terror with her son.

Behind them,

a terrifying figure, shrouded in black mist,

pursued them slowly and calmly.

It had a green face and fangs.

It looked exactly like the legendary demon.

It regarded the fleeing mother and child with a mocking expression.

It did not strike immediately.

In fact, there was a hint of fear in its eyes.

It seemed to sense something on those two humans.

It stirred a fear deep within its soul.

That was why it had hesitated to act against them.

"Demon, today is your time of death!"

Suddenly, a loud shout rang out.

The next moment.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two beams of light shot toward the demon like arrows.

The next moment.

The beams pierced clean through the demon's body, leaving two holes.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Footsteps sounded.

Two Beast Tamers appeared before the peasant woman, accompanied by their Phantom Beasts.

"Are you villagers from this village?"

"Stay hidden over there—we'll handle this thing!"

Zhang Qing said to the peasant woman… "It's the Black Sima Wuqing-Faced Fanged Demon!"

"No wonder everyone fell into a coma!!"

"This Phantom Beast is no ordinary one—it's likely above Diamond rank!"

"We must give it our all, Brother Zhang!"

Ying Tianqiu said with a serious expression.

Both of them were Diamond-rank Beast Tamers.

But the Black Sima Wuqing-Faced Fanged Demon was also a creature above Diamond rank.

They dared not let their guard down.

"Alright, we'll go all out against it!"

Hearing Ying Tianqiu's words,
