Chapter 14: Go Afu!

Seeing Yan Xiao, the villagers seemed to see hope.

They temporarily forgot their fear of the Phantom Demon.

This would not do.

If they were not afraid, how could he earn Fear Value?

"The Phantom Demon is here!" Yan Xiao shouted in a deep voice.

The crowd was startled and hurriedly hid behind Yan Xiao.

Fear Value from a group of people +2000.

Hehe...

Yan Xiao secretly said an apology.

"Since they treat me as a savior, how can I bear to break the illusion?

Otherwise, if hope were lost, it would be too cruel to them; I cannot be that cruel.

Yes, that's it!"

Yan Xiao found a reason for himself in his heart.

He could never admit that the Phantom Demon was blown to death by Bailaotou; after all, he had dug the pit for half a day, so he still deserved some credit.

Yan Xiao comforted himself.

"Owner, I want to absorb the energy of the big bear."

At this moment, Qingyao transformed into a beautiful woman, holding Qingxue, walked to Yan Xiao's side, and whispered.

Yan Xiao turned his head to look and happened to see the beautiful woman's graceful figure.

He couldn't help but think to himself, she really is a demoness, hot enough.

"Owner... do you not agree?" the beautiful woman asked with disappointment.

"No... no, go ahead. From now on, just call me Young Master; calling me Owner feels rather awkward."

Yan Xiao said awkwardly.

Qingyao was delighted; she held Qingxue and walked to the edge of the large pit, secretly absorbing the Yaoyao of the Gouxiong Huan Yao that had not yet dissipated.

"Dazhu, let's go... follow your Master to kill the demons."

Yan Xiao looked at the villagers, and the Magic Sword in his hand shook, emitting a buzzing sword hum.

"Afu is so majestic!"

"Mother, I want to marry Afu."

Little stars appeared in the eyes of several young girls as they looked at Yan Xiao.

Yan Xiao almost fell over, but fortunately, Dazhu was by his side and reached out to steady him.

"Master, did you use up your strength because you used a powerful move?" Wang Dazhu asked suspiciously.

"Yes, my body was overdrawn just now." Yan Xiao nodded, his face unchanging and his heart not racing.

"Master is doing this for the greater good; it is not shameful."

Wang Dazhu looked serious, making Yan Xiao feel a bit embarrassed to deceive him.

At this moment.

Two Zhutou Huan Yao slowly walked out from the bushes, looking at the two of them ferociously.

The appearance of the two Phantom Demons relieved Yan Xiao's awkwardness.

The villagers also shut their mouths, not daring to breathe, staring blankly at the performance of the master and disciple.

"Master, I will go first, you rest for a while."

Wang Dazhu held a large saber, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

"Go ahead."

Yan Xiao encouraged him.

With Yan Xiao by his side, Wang Dazhu's courage was clearly boosted.

"Clang!"

Yan Xiao didn't even see how he struck, only seeing the Zhutou Huan Yao's head hit by the large saber, emitting a huge clashing sound.

Wang Dazhu's hands trembled, and he hurriedly ran back, looking at Yan Xiao with a resentful face, "Master, the saber you gave me still can't kill the pig demon."

"Idiot, can't you cut somewhere else? If you can't kill it by cutting the top, then cut the bottom! And... the neck!"

Yan Xiao scolded him irritably, but before he could finish speaking, Wang Dazhu had already swung his saber.

The large saber went from bottom to top; it really was a slash from bottom to top.

"Squelch!"

The large saber swept across the Zhutou Huan Yao, and it actually killed the Phantom Demon.

Cut in two!

"Holy crap~"

Yan Xiao was dumbfounded.

"Good..."

The villagers gathered their courage to cheer for Wang Dazhu; having been persecuted by Phantom Demons for years, they had long hated them to the bone.

Seeing the Phantom Demon killed, they all showed excitement.

"Master, you are truly amazing! What is the name of this move?"

Wang Dazhu was even more excited in his heart; he swung the large saber again, and another slash went out—the Zhutou Huan Yao was dead.

"This move is called... Yaoniminsanqian?"

Yan Xiao blurted out nonsense.

"Yaoniminsanqian, what an overbearing name!"

Wang Dazhu nodded, very satisfied with this martial technique and the name of the martial technique.

Uh...

Yan Xiao could only secretly admire the wisdom of the seniors from his past life in his heart.

"Help... help!"

Just at this moment, the sound of cries for help came from the direction of the village.

There was a family who did not want to leave with Wang Dazhu, thinking it was safest to hide at home.

Unfortunately, they were still discovered by a Phantom Demon; of the whole family, only a little girl remained.

At this moment, the little girl was being hunted by a humanoid Phantom Demon.

She ran in a panic, but fortunately, the direction she was running in happened to be the correct one.

Hearing the call, Yan Xiao immediately jumped up, rushed over quickly, killed the Phantom Demon with one sword strike, and saved the little girl.

Fear Value from the Phantom Demon +100.

That humanoid Phantom Demon was recognized by someone in the village; it was actually Zhaolaohan, who had just died not long ago.

This discovery greatly astonished Yan Xiao.

Although he knew the formation principle of Phantom Demons, seeing the fellow villagers around him turn into Phantom Demons to harm people after death, he felt somewhat uncomfortable in his heart.

Humans and beasts could turn into Phantom Demons after death, and basically, many Phantom Demons were produced every day.

It was simply a terrifying matter!

Based on Yan Xiao's many years of experience reading novels, this was definitely a conspiracy.

It was a massive conspiracy, a huge conspiracy concerning the existences at the top of the pyramid of this world.

Currently, his strength was insufficient to investigate it, but one day, he would drag out the mastermind behind the scenes.

He would beat them until their bottom blossomed and their skin was torn and flesh mangled.

He would eliminate harm for the people and contribute to world peace.

And incidentally, he would settle an old score from when he was five years old.

"Boohoo..."

The little girl's sobbing interrupted Yan Xiao's train of thought.

He sighed.

Yan Xiao carried the little girl back into the crowd and handed her to the Village Chief.

The little girl was named Ma Xiaoyun; she was the only survivor of her entire family, which could be considered the fortunate among the unfortunate.

"Brother Afu, I want to learn sword techniques, I want to cultivate immortality."

Ma Xiaoyun looked at Yan Xiao and requested.

Her little face was covered in tears and dust, looking pitiful.

"Alright, wait until Brother Afu finishes killing these Phantom Demons, then I will come back to teach you sword techniques."

Yan Xiao nodded, wiped the dust off the little girl's face, and revealed a kind smile.

"Afu... there are more and more monsters..."

Rustling sounds came from all around, and the villagers could not help but worry.

"Afu, I'm counting on you," the Village Chief said solemnly.

"Rest assured, with me here, you will be fine."

Yan Xiao guaranteed.

At this moment, he shimmered with a protagonist halo, and his tall image gradually magnified among the villagers.

"Brother Afu, you must work hard, don't let the Phantom Demons defeat you; I'm still young and don't want to die."

Ma Jianyang waved the wooden sword in his hand, cheering for Yan Xiao with a serious face.

"Alright, watch Brother transform and fight the monsters."

Yan Xiao smiled slightly, the Magic Sword was enchanted, and purple light illuminated the entire night.

He pushed off the ground with both feet and leaped high into the air.

Blazing Fire Spreads Across the Plains!

A huge circle of fire protected the villagers inside, making it impossible for the Phantom Demons to break through the wall of fire and harm the villagers.

"Cool!"

Wang Dazhu clenched his fists, looking worshipful: "Master is truly an immortal."

"This fire wall is good, but it's a bit roasting."

The Village Chief wiped his sweat, feeling unbearably hot.

Looking at Yan Xiao.

After he set up the fire wall, his figure moved rapidly back and forth among the Phantom Demons, and the Magic Sword in his hand was like a hot knife through butter.

Every place he passed, a Phantom Demon would be burned to ashes by the flames.

Repeating this, the Phantom Demons were soon almost all killed.

The villagers were also drenched in sweat.

"Afu... I'm going to be roasted,"

Ma Jianyang wiped the sweat off his face and shouted loudly.

Yan Xiao almost fell over.

He had forgotten that the villagers were only mortals and naturally could not withstand such roasting.

After Yan Xiao killed the last Phantom Demon on the scene, he hurriedly withdrew the flames.

Fear Value +200 from a group of people.

Looking at the sweat-drenched crowd, Yan Xiao wore an awkward expression.

Since they are already generating Fear Value, it seems the fire is still not big enough...
