The Game with Fairies

Li Muyang was somewhat surprised.

He had been using Spiritual Vision Eye throughout the game, so when that eerie shadow approached Fairy Liuli, Li Muyang sensed the danger and opened his eyes in time.

Unexpectedly, the shadow was a decoy, and the real deadly attack was behind Li Muyang.

“That evil creature even knows how to cooperate? That’s a bit outrageous.”

Li Muyang accessed his saved game and re-entered the game.

It was still the campfire under the night sky, with Fairy Liuli standing at the edge of the cliff, gazing at the mountains under the night veil.

The misty water vapor was swirling around her as the fairy entered a state of meditation, continuing her cultivation.

But the shadow emerged from the edge of the firelight, approaching Fairy Liuli silently.

And Li Muyang, sitting beside the campfire, pretended as if nothing had happened.

Only when he felt a chill did Li Muyang activate his time-stopping ability.

“Za Warudo!”

After time came to a standstill, Li Muyang immediately leaped up and turned to look behind him.

In the darkness behind him, it seemed as if a crack had opened in the void, and numerous pale ghostly hands stretched out, attempting to drag Li Muyang into the darkness.

Li Muyang roughly estimated that there were at least dozens of these ghostly hands.

–Is this thing related to the Nine-Armed Bodhisattva?

Why so many hands?

Li Muyang summoned the Dharma-Annihilation Wheel and released a dazzling blue light, slashing at those ghostly hands.

However, the moment the time stop ended, the ghostly hands also vanished into the darkness of the crack.

Li Muyang’s Dharma-Annihilation Wheel only managed to sever three arms.

And as these three arms fell to the ground, they immediately turned into foul-smelling pus and blood, dissolving into the soil.

The commotion by the campfire woke Fairy Liuli, who immediately turned around to look at Li Muyang.

She just saw Li Muyang cutting off the ghostly hands and the crack in the darkness disappearing.

Fairy Liuli frowned: “Another evil creature attacking?”

Why were there so many evil creatures in the forests of Lijiang County?

Li Muyang looked towards the distant village and sighed: “It might not be that the evil creatures are attacking us, but that we have accidentally intruded into their lair.”

Li Muyang, not minding the filth, picked up an iron bracelet from the ground covered in the foul blood.

This bracelet was engraved with ancient characters but was very crudely made.

Li Muyang remembered clearly that it was worn on the arm of a young man from the Five Streams Barbarians in Purple Immortal Village that afternoon.

During the day, that person from Five Streams Barbarians had greeted Li Muyang and the others with a smile.

Fairy Liuli also recognized the iron bracelet and her expression changed slightly.

“This… Purple Immortal Village?”

She suddenly looked towards the direction of Purple Immortal Village in the forest, where the village under the moonlight was faintly visible among the trees, silent and serene.

The entire village had no lights, blending completely with the night.

However, for some reason, as the two of them gazed at the barbarian village under the night sky, they felt a chilling coldness.

“We must find out the source of this matter!”

Fairy Liuli’s expression became serious: “Evil spirits causing chaos is a serious matter. If there really are evil creatures awakening in the mountains, we must report to the Imperial Astronomical Bureau and ask for the Demon-Suppressing Master to take action!”

Although Fairy Liuli had some complaints about the rough methods of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau in exorcising demons, she still recognized the capabilities of the Demon-Suppressing Master.

In terms of exorcising evil spirits and suppressing evil creatures, the Demon-Suppressing Masters of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau were the best in the world.

Only they could completely eradicate the mischievous evil creatures, leaving no disaster behind.

With a serious look, Fairy Liuli quickly headed towards the direction of Purple Immortal Village.

Li Muyang followed closely behind her, and the two once again arrived at the entrance of Purple Immortal Village.

However, Purple Immortal Village under the moonlight was different from the warm and friendly barbarian village during the day.

In the silent and lifeless village, a cold breath drifted, making the living uncomfortable.

As Li Muyang and Fairy Liuli stepped through the gates of Purple Immortal Village, they saw several ferocious dogs with blood-red eyes crouching by the road, fiercely tearing at something.

The friendly yellow dogs that had played with the children during the day were now ferocious and terrifying.

In the cold moonlight, they could see the dogs frantically gnawing at several frail barbarian children.

The children had their mouths wide open, their bodies trembling as if they were laughing happily, but no sound came out.

The ferocious dogs were crazily chewing on the children’s bodies, tearing at their flesh, but the children seemed unaware of the pain.

Further into the village, within the shadows, roamed dark figures.

They all emitted a chilling cold qi, with stiff walking postures, clearly not alive.

Fairy Liuli’s eyes turned extremely cold.

“…The entire Purple Immortal Village has been corrupted!”

She immediately turned to Li Muyang and said: “Lord Wuming, we must leave immediately, go down the mountain to find the authorities, and report the abnormal situation here!”

“Once the evil creatures awaken and gain strength, they must be eradicated immediately!”

Fairy Liuli suggested retreating.

However, Li Muyang squinted his eyes, gazing at the distant mountaintop.

There, one could vaguely see an old man sitting under the moonlight, overlooking everything in the village.

In his view, the system’s mission target remained unchanged.

【Main Quest: Inquire with the old priest to obtain clues about the disappearance of the veteran general of the Ever-Victorious Army】

“…Fairy, you go first, I’ll cover your retreat.”

Li Muyang stared at the village ahead while squinting his eyes, ready to try breaking through on his own.

This Purple Immortal Village was clearly an important checkpoint.

He had to get through this village to obtain the subsequent key clues.

Upon hearing his words, Fairy Liuli was extremely astonished.

“Lord Wuming, you…”

Before Chu Qingxue could finish speaking, Li Muyang had already turned into a shadow, rushing towards the evil dogs ahead.

The Dharma-Annihilation Wheel, driven by the Startling Swan Sword Mantra, released a brilliant blue light, instantly annihilating the five evil dogs by the roadside.

However, after the evil dogs were killed, a horrifying scene unfolded.

Upon losing the suppression of the dogs, the children who had been bitten and torn by the evil dogs suddenly opened their mouths and let out sharp, piercing laughter.

Subsequently, all the children’s flesh swelled and burst open.

In the blink of an eye, six flesh orbs rose within the village, catching Li Muyang completely off guard and engulfing him.

【You died. Game over】

……

“…What the hell!”

Inside the cabin of the flying ship, Li Muyang opened his eyes, speechless.

He had suspected from the start that there was something wrong with that group of dead children, so while he was killing the evil dogs, he also launched an attack on those children.

Unexpectedly, his attack on the children, who rapidly swelled and grew larger, actually catalyzed their explosion.

The six demon-possessed children burst, and Li Muyang was directly caught in the explosion, dying a clean death.

“Let’s go again!”

Li Muyang, having failed, re-entered the game.

The killing methods of these demonic beings amused him.

These creatures were not very skilled, but their methods of killing were quite innovative!
