C127 Stay
"Miss, you're such a kind-hearted person!"
The old village chief immediately kneeled in front of Die Wu, tears and sobs flowing down his face.
"Hey, don't be like this. Hurry up and get up!"
The citizens of the Southern Wilderness were simple and honest. The citizens of the Central Plains were straightforward.
Die Wu immediately helped the Old Village Chief up.
"Don't come out again to be a bandit in the future."
Die Wu said to the old man with a gentle smile.
The villagers all nodded at Die Wu.
"Don't worry, young lady. If it wasn't for the pressure of life, who would be willing to go out and do such a hateful thing?!"
Hearing their words, Die Wu calmed down.
"Miss, I can see that you are travel worn and seem to be hurrying. May I know where you are heading to?" The old village chief looked at Die Wu and Lin Yuan in confusion.
Lin Yuan then walked over and said indifferently to the Old Village Chief.
"To the Cang Ling Island."
When the villagers heard Lin Yuan's words, they could not help but reveal a surprised expression.
"Could it be the legendary Cang Ling Island?"
Hearing their words, Lin Yuan's eyes flashed a look of doubt.
"Why do you all know?"
"Sigh, I heard that the Cang Ling Island is an immortal mountain surrounded by spirit energy. The island has many rare and precious grasses. There were also many otherworldly experts on the island. However, those are only the legends recorded in the book and no one has personally verified them. "
Hearing their words, Lin Yuan's heart also revealed a hint of disappointment.
If it really was just a legend, then what if it was made up by the people of this world ?
Die Wu walked over worriedly when she saw Lin Yuan's distressed look.
"Lin Yuan, are you alright?"
Seeing her ask that, Lin Yuan could not help but shake his head.
"I'm fine. It's getting late. Let's hurry up and go."
Even if there was only a sliver of hope, Lin Yuan would never give up! He made a vow in his heart.
When the villagers heard that Lin Yuan, Die Wu and the others wanted to leave, they immediately surrounded them and stopped them.
"Benefactors, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Why don't you all rest in our village for the night and prepare some rations before continuing on your journey?" The old elder said to them in a very hospitable manner.
"I advise you to leave the village as soon as possible. Take that jade pendant and leave quickly."
Hearing them say that, Lin Yuan coldly said to them.
The old elder's gentle smile instantly froze, and he suspiciously looked at Lin Yuan.
"Benefactor, what do you mean by this?"
These villagers had been farmers for generations. They had been working here as men and women, and they had treated this place as their home. How could they be so heartless as to leave home?
After hearing what Lin Yuan said, Die Wu's face was also filled with surprise.
"This is a cursed village." Lin Yuan said indifferently.
What! The other villagers and Die Wu were all stunned when they heard Lin Yuan's words.
"Lin Yuan, what do you mean by that?" Die Wu asked Lin Yuan, puzzled.
Lin Yuan did not say anything, he only took out his sword and pointed it at the sky.
"Everyone says that one can rule over the heavens, but the truth is that fate cannot be defied! "The killing intent in this village is too strong, it's definitely going to be destroyed. You guys shouldn't stay here anymore, let's quickly leave."
When the villagers heard Lin Yuan's words, their faces were filled with astonishment.
"How is this possible!" They were all in disbelief.
Have you not noticed that other than your village here, the rest of the area is filled with vegetation? Your village is a dead end, and if you don't leave now, you'll die here.
"But ?" "If we leave our hometown, where can we go?"
The old village chief sighed heavily. Tears rolled down his wrinkled face like beads from a broken string.
"Lin Yuan, is there really no other way other than to leave?"
Die Wu looked at the Old Village Chief's sorrowful expression and couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.
Hearing Die Wu's question, Lin Yuan raised his head and looked towards the sky above the village.
The other areas were all blue, but there was only black gas above the village.
"It's the Devil Dao." Lin Yuan said indifferently.
"Your village is located in the southeast corner, and this place is filled with vegetation. Moreover, this place is a dragon cave, and there are many souls here. It is very suitable for cultivation."
Those villagers were shallow with their knowledge, how could they understand what Lin Yuan had said?
After he finished speaking, the villagers' faces were filled with a dazed expression.
Seeing how Lin Yuan's words were logical, the villagers all kneeled in front of him, "Benefactor, if you have a way, you must save us. We do not wish to leave our homeland!"
They now treated Lin Yuan as a god and kowtowed to him, kowtowing to him nonstop.
Lin Yuan could not stand such a request.
It wasn't that he didn't want to help them, it was just that his most important mission right now was to go to the Cang Ling Island, look for the Five Ancestor of the Snow Region, and save Ah Yin.
Therefore, Lin Yuan could not agree to their request.
"Lin Yuan, is there really no other way?"
Die Wu saw that Lin Yuan was silent and did not speak, and asked with expectation.
"After killing the Devil Dao cultivators, this place will return to how it was before."
When the villagers heard Lin Yuan's words, a terrified expression surfaced on their faces.
"Benefactor, you are the only one who can save us. I hope you can save us all and help us!"
Hearing the villagers' pleas, Lin Yuan's face changed.
However, he was still a little worried in his heart, if he delayed it too long, it might delay Ah Yin's injury.
Just as Lin Yuan was hesitating, a voice came out from the carriage.
"Ah Yin!" He would rather turn around and look at the carriage in astonishment.
He then quickly rushed to the carriage.
Unknowingly, Ah Yin had actually woken up.
"Ah Yin, you're awake!" Ever since a few envoy s helped heal Ah Yin, he fell into a deep slumber.
Now that she had woken up, Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart.
"Lin Yuan..."
Ah Yin looked at Lin Yuan's happy expression, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
She slowly extended her hand towards him, and Lin Yuan immediately grabbed onto Ah Yin's hand.
"I heard what you guys said just now. If you can help them, then help them."
Although Ah Yin had woken up, her body was still abnormally weak.
Hearing Ah Yin's words, Lin Yuan's heart could not help but hurt.
She was such a silly girl. She was already injured to such an extent, yet she actually cared about someone else!
"Good!" If you want me to help you, then help me! " Lin Yuan held Ah Yin's hand tightly, and said with a face full of tender affection.
Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Ah Yin could not help but smile.
"Lin Yuan, I'm so hungry ? Why don't we stay in the village for now? "
Lin Yuan heard that Ah Yin was hungry, and immediately became anxious.
Even if he himself was hungry, he couldn't let Ah Yin starve!
"Ah Yin, wait a moment, I will find something for you to eat right away."
After instructing Ah Yin, Lin Yuan quickly got off the carriage and walked over to the villagers.
"I can help you." Lin Yuan looked at the villagers kneeling on the ground, and said faintly.
The villagers suddenly saw Lin Yuan let out a sigh of relief, and a surprised smile appeared on their faces.
"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor!" They continuously kowtowed to Lin Yuan as they spoke.
Lin Yuan raised his hand to stop them, "I do not need your thanks, but you must find us something to eat."
The villagers originally wanted to say some difficult conditions, but there was still a bit of worry in their hearts.
He never thought that Lin Yuan's request would be so simple.
A joyful smile immediately appeared on their faces, and they immediately agreed, "Alright! Let's go and find food for our benefactor. "
Afterwards, the Old Village Chief instructed a few people to take the jade pendant Die Wu gave him to the city to exchange for food.1
Before he left, Lin Yuan had even specially instructed them to exchange for some high-quality ingredients.
After those villagers had left, Lin Yuan stood under the black cloud above the village with his hands behind his back.
"Lin Yuan, what kind of demon is this?" As Die Wu looked at the densely packed black clouds, she also had a burst of doubt in her heart.
Although the Southern Wilderness also cultivated Evil Qi, their actions were very upright and they would never harm innocent people.
However, the people in the Central Plains had a great misunderstanding towards the southern border, so they often sent cultivators to suppress them.
They had to fight back because they were being chased and had no other choice.
Only then did he form a grudge with the cultivators of the Central Plains.
"We need to make a trip to the dragon's lair. All the hidden dangers will be buried underground."
Lin Yuan said with a heavy sigh.
"Breakthrough the dragon's cave?" Seeing Lin Yuan's serious expression, Die Wu asked.
Lin Yuan nodded at her, "That's right, the only way for everything to return to how it was before is to purge the demonic energy underground."
"From the looks of it, this Devil Dao person is very strong in magic and should be a difficult master to deal with. When the time comes, I will go with you. "
After Lin Yuan heard this, he immediately stopped her.
"No, you can't go with me. After I enter the dragon cave, you must stay by Ah Yin's side and protect her well, and definitely cannot let the demonic energy invade her body. I have just helped Ah Yin consume a few medicinal pellets, which can protect her from the invasion of the demonic energy. "
After Die Wu heard Lin Yuan's arrangements, she also felt that what he said was reasonable and nodded.
"Lin Yuan, are you confident that you can completely eradicate the devils in this place?"
Die Wu could not help but worry for her.
If something were to happen to Lin Yuan, she couldn't think of anyone else who would be able to bring them to the Cang Ling Island to find the Five Ancestor of the Snow Region.
"Don't worry, before we left, several envoy s had already imparted a large amount of spirit energy to me. I am a dignified late stage fourth layer of Qi Condensation cultivator, not weak to the point of being defeated by a mere Devil Dao cultivator."
Don't let me see how confident Lin Yuan is. Only then did I feel a lot more at ease.
"Mn, Lin Yuan, thank you for taking care of me on this journey."
Along the way, I have already changed my opinion towards Lin Yuan.
Even she was a little shocked that Lin Yuan would actually use his deep love for Ah Yin to this extent!
