Yao Si turned. The only thing in sight less than a hundredmeters to the right was a manin a long vintage outfit. The darkness made it hard for her to decipher the details,but in his hands, she could see a sword that he was using to attack the surroundings ferociously. His long hair was alreadyina mess. He seemed to be injured, for a pungent coppery blood smell filledthe air that the wind brought over.
As the manswung the sword, he shouted at the surroundings in agitation.
“My life is in my own hands,not the heavens’!
“With its tiny size, the demonic race has no rights for arrogance, I Zan Zichen won’t give up until I die!”
That line seems rather familiar…
Self-fulfilling prophecy?
Yao Si grew increasingly more frustrated by the ruckus he was making. Taking a step forward, she called out, “Hey…young man!”
“Who is that?”He turned, trying to spot her. His expressionwascautious as he gripped his sword, while his gaze did not seem to be a friendly one.
“Here,here!” Yao Si took another two steps forward, waving her hands in front of him.
He turned in the direction of her voice. Withhis sword, he flicked her hand away before taking a step back.“How audacious, where did you come from,you demonic woman?”
Demonic woman?You’re the demonic woman, your entire family are demonic women!
“Hey, MisterZan Zichen, could you please keep it down a little?”
His face sunkand he glaredat her intently.“How do you know my name?”
“You shouted it out just now!” With such a loud voice, how could she not know?
He stilled, seemingly recallingthe incident. After taking a thorough look at her, his eyes went wide from shock.“You-you’re a human!”
Yao Si’s facemuscles twitched.“I don’t look like one?”
“What are you doing in the demonic realm?” he asked in disbelief.
What demonic realm? Was it the name of this area? Then…was he a local?
Yao Si was a little confused. Ermm..Docelestialshave any rulesregarding this, are people on training allowed to interact with the locals?She hadn’t looked at the manual, what wasshe going to do?
Just as Zan Zichen was about to continue asking, his face paledand he shouted out, “Missus, be careful!” He stabbed his sword inches from her arm.Yao Si could only feel a strong gust of wind by the side of her arm, startling her.
What happened?
With that attack, themhurriedly took hold ofher hand.“You were almost ambushed by the demonic energy, so you should force it up this instant…Ah?” He paused in confusion,seemingly having met with an incomprehensible matter. He flipped her arm over, inspectingit. “How can it…”
“It’s going to break if you continue to flipit around.” She shook her hand.
His hand trembled, and he released her instantly. Zan Zichen’s face flusheda deep red.“Missus,I apologizefor my disrespect.” He took a step back formally.“The situation was anurgent one, but missus, to be able to defend yourself against the demonic energy… I’m deeply surprised.”
“Demonic energy?”What’s that?
“That’s right, this is the demonic realm,soits filled with demonic energy. If an ordinary person isn’t careful, allowing it to enterthem…” He paused, seemingly thinking of something grave, for his brows furrowed, forming a deep knot.” If it’s just little, the body will start to rot, but if it becomes more serious, the person might die.”
It’s that serious? Then was the oppressive feeling I felt the entire time actually demonic energy?
“Missus, your body seems stronger than normal, the demonic energy doesn’t seem to be able to penetrate,” he said.“But beasts are everywhere within the demonic realm, there’s also the demonic race that treats humans as prey. You should leave as soon as possible.”
“Oh, thank you!”
Yao Si was about to probe further, but ashhhh, lalasound erupted from afar,andZan Zichen’s face darkened.“Bad news, something is coming. Hurry, we have to leave this place.” With a weird gesture, a long sword floated up in mid-air. He jumped up and reached his hand toward her.
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine!”
Yao Si didn’t mindit. Regardless of how dangerousit was,this wasjust the thirddistrict…
Awhooo!
Just then, a beast emerged from the sand. Itlooked like a snake,but it was several feet tall like a bug. It looked like the beastsfrommovies, with amouth that was a few meterswideanddagger-liketeeth formingseveral neat rowsall around it.
“…”(⊙ o ⊙)
“Run!”
Yao Si grabbed onto Zan Zichen’s armand jumpedonto the sword. Together, they left in a hurry.
She had been so calm justa few seconds ago, but now something like this showed up!
How is this the third district! How can there be such a massive beasthere? It looks exactly like a miniature galactic beast!
Shouldn’t the strongest beast here onlyberank B?!
