"Firmament …!"
"BOOM!"
A brilliant axe light was annihilated in the void. The ferocious roaring ancient beast in front of him roared ferociously under this axe, and finally turned into ashes.
'Ding … Congratulations on killing utmost celestial upper-level beast. '
'Ding … Congratulations on killing utmost celestial full cultivation beast. '
'Ding …! '
"Holy f * ck! That was close! To think that I would have landed in the nest of an ancient beast!" Lin Fan traversed through the mountains, chopping down any beasts he came across without a single shred of mercy. These beasts were extremely ferocious. Even though there were many low levelled beasts, the experience points they could provide were limited.
At the same time, Lin Fan was starting to realize a problem. Beasts of earth celestial cultivation state and above were starting to develop some sort of intellect. Perhaps it was because of this that these high levelled beasts started to develop their own intellect and left this place to head for the central region.
Humans strive for greater heights just as water flows downwards. Even beasts had their own goals.
'Absorb …! '
All of this dense demonic aura was sucked into the Demon City.
The main pillar of the semi-finished, pseudo-legendary weapon, Demon City was the big ancient demon. And the big ancient demon was the king of the demon race. However, Lin Fan did not know if the big ancient demon was a type of ancient beast.
Or if he was a powerful being that evolved from an ancient beast to a certain extent.
But now that he had come to the Ancient Saint World and seen so many different races, Lin Fan understood that the world was full of wonders. It was hard to say if the big ancient demon was a king that evolved from an ancient beast or not.
Looking at the corpses of the ancient beasts around him, Lin Fan flicked his robes and kept them all into his storage.
Since he had decided to leave the next day, he might as well kill more beasts to provide the villagers with sufficient food.
The villagers themselves were not weak. However, compared to the beasts, they were still a distance away. Therefore, each time they teamed up to hunt beasts, they would face immense danger.
And the one that Lin Fan cared about the most was Xuan'er, a cute little fox. This lass was the first child that Lin Fan had met in the Ancient Saint World. She had a sweet mouth, and was extremely likable.
Even though she looked tsundere on the surface, to Lin Fan, she was even cuter.
In fact, Lin Fan was even thinking that if he could take down the ancient race in the future, he would be more than happy to bring Xuan'er along and teach her slowly.
With such a cute little fox around, he wouldn't be so bored most of the time.
'Creak …! '
Just then, there was a commotion in the bushes ahead. Lin Fan swung his axe fiercely, causing a deep crack to appear on the ground.
At this moment, an animal that looked like a rabbit stood dumbly on the spot, as if it was shocked by this scene.
"Eh? What? What?" Lin Fan picked up the snow-white animal that was only the size of a palm and looked like a white rabbit.
Two long ears, red eyes, isn't this a rabbit?
To think that there would be such a living being in the Ancient Saint World. "Lin Fan took a closer look and felt a little curious.
Editor: Hitesh _ Harmless. Not only that, its claws weren't sharp, and its limbs were short.
'Looks pretty cute. Xuan'er should like it. 'Lin Fan thought to himself as he carried the animal.
Kids were forgetful. Once he left, he would have this fella accompany Xuan'er by her side. That way, she might be able to lessen her reluctance to part with her.
"Rabbit, you had better behave yourself! Otherwise, I'm going to roast you!" Being carried in the hands of someone, this white rabbit shrugged its head and let out a cowardly look.
Lin Fan carried the Eternal Axe on his shoulders and carried the rabbit with one hand, walking into the village in satisfaction.
Even though it was still early, they were going to leave the next day. Lin Fan wanted to tease Xuan'er a little, and at the same time, impart some skills to her.
After all, the Ancient Saint World was fraught with dangers. It was hard to say if anything would happen in the future.
The three suns shone brightly as Lin Fan hummed a tune and walked leisurely through the mountains.
...
"H-how could this be …?"
At the entrance of the village, Lin Fan caught sight of the scenery before him. That relaxed expression of his turned pale as a sheet. He stood at the entrance of the village, as though he had lost his mind.
Blood stains were everywhere, and flames raged through the skies. All those simple houses were stained with blood.
Lin Fan's face tensed up as he hastened his footsteps into the village.
As though it had been robbed, the entire village was in chaos.
Corpses after corpses littered the entire village.
Every single one of their faces was so familiar. But now, they were all corpses.
Suddenly, Lin Fan caught sight of a corpse before him. It was the village chief.
Lin Fan rushed forth, "Village chief, what in the world is going on …?"
But it was a pity that the village chief was already dead. That old face of his was filled with rage. There was a ghastly wound on his chest, and the fresh blood had long dried up.
"Ancient race …!"
Lin Fan gripped his fists tightly. His face tensed up, "Xuan'er …!"
At this moment, Lin Fan bolted up from his seat and looked around.
'Bloody hell! Please don't let anything happen to her! 'Lin Fan screamed in his heart as he looked at the corpses one by one.
"It's not …!"
"There's still hope …!"
"She's not here either!"
"Hope! Give me some hope!" Lin Fan's body was trembling uncontrollably. The rabbit that was being carried by Lin Fan was struggling with all four of its limbs due to the immense pain. However, to Lin Fan right now, his only goal was to find Xuan'er.
"No …! Xuan'er, where have you gone to?" Lin Fan looked at the empty village and screamed.
"She must have been taken away by those ancient race beings. There's still hope …!" Lin Fan thought about how cute Xuan'er was. Those ancient race beings shouldn't have killed her.
The moment this hope appeared in Lin Fan's mind, it grew stronger and stronger. Eventually, Lin Fan began to believe that this hope was the truth.
"No! I've got to hurry up and chase after her! Otherwise, it'll be too late!" Lin Fan turned around and rushed off into the distance.
"Uncle … Lin …!"
Just as Lin Fan was rushing off into the distance, a soft voice rang out from the haystack beside him.
"Xuan'er …!" Lin Fan's face was filled with excitement. He then started to dig up the haystack.
"T-this … impossible …!" Within the haystack, fresh blood was gushing out endlessly.
Lin Fan shook his head furiously. However, the moment he dug up the haystack and caught sight of what was within, Lin Fan's entire body went numb.
Half of a blade had pierced through that scrawny body of Xuan'er, causing fresh blood to gush out profusely.
"How could this be …?" Lin Fan looked up into the skies with his eyes shut, unable to believe what he was seeing.
"Uncle Lin …!" That adorable little face of Xuan'er was pale as a sheet right now. Big, pea-sized tears streamed down her face.
"Grandpa told me to hide here and not make a sound. But Xuan'er's in so much pain …!" Xuan'er's face was tensed up as she bit down on her lower lip with her blood-stained teeth, as though she was enduring the pain.
"How could this be …?" Looking at the state of Xuan'er, Lin Fan's resolute heart was filled with sorrow as well. The boundless lifeforce of the Mythical Parasol Tree gushed into Xuan'er's body.
However, the moment that lifeforce entered Xuan'er's body, it dissipated into the surroundings once more.
"Uncle Lin, Xuan'er is really strong! Even though it's really painful, Xuan'er didn't make a single sound … Am I really strong?" Those spirited eyes of Xuan'er gradually lost their glow as she shut her eyes slowly.
"Strong! Xuan'er is the best …!" Lin Fan could only feel his heart wrenching in pain. This was a pain that he had not experienced for a long, long time.
To Lin Fan, the reason why he wanted to become stronger was because he did not want to endure this sort of pain.
"Uncle … Lin … We're … friends …!"
'Thud …! '
Those frail, weak hands of hers wanted to touch Lin Fan's cheeks. But eventually, like a kite with its string cut, they drooped down helplessly …
At the same time, the last bit of light in Xuan Er's eyes disappeared at this moment.
"Xuan'er …!" Lin Fan was about to explode right now.
What a cute little girl! How could she have such a life?!
"F * ck you ancient race! If Your Daddy doesn't destroy your entire race, I swear that I'm not human …!"
