When the villagers saw that Xu Que had returned, they cheered loudly.
Many people surrounded him and asked if he was injured. However, when they saw that Xu Que was unharmed, they were shocked and praised him for his remarkable abilities.
"Fellow villagers, don't worry. With this spell, they won't dare to attack us again." Xu Que promised the villagers.
The villagers were extremely grateful and wanted to kowtow again. However, they were stopped by Xu Que. After a few rounds of persuasion, they finally gave up.
At this point, Da Zhuang walked out from the crowd and asked worriedly, "Immortal Xu, what should we do next? When you were fighting just now, I saw two people sneaking away. If they call for more people … "
"Oh? Two people escaped? "Xu Que wasn't surprised.
Just now, they were focused on killing Elder Liu and the rest. It was normal for one or two disciples to escape.
However, this wasn't a big deal. Even if no one escaped, the sects would definitely come again if they couldn't contact Elder Liu and the rest.
"Don't worry. Everyone stay here peacefully. This spell will protect you all."
Xu Que comforted the villagers.
It wasn't that he didn't consider bringing the villagers away from this place. However, the immortal cultivator's divine sense was extremely vast. Even if they escaped through the secret passage, they would only be able to reach the back of the mountain and would still be discovered by the immortal cultivators.
When that time comes, without the protection of the Four Directions Desolation spell, the villagers would be in even more danger.
"Everyone listen to brother Xu Que. He will definitely protect us." Xiao Rou ran out and said.
Xu Que smiled at her and she blushed. She was so innocent and cute.
The villagers saw this but didn't say anything. They all revealed simple smiles. Xiao Rou turned around and ran away.
Finally, everyone dispersed and returned to their own homes to rest.
Xu Que started to plan for the future of Pan Shan Village.
After all, he couldn't stay here for long. The world was so big and he wanted to explore it. However, before he left, he had to solve the problem of Pan Shan Village.
Now that the Four Directions Desolation Formation was guarding the area, Pan Shan Village was basically safe.
Moreover, with so much land and rivers, as well as goats and pheasants in the mountains, the villagers would be able to be self-sufficient in the future.
But right now, the village still needed some supplies, such as food reserves and seeds for farming.
Xu Que found Da Zhuang and found out that there was a small town to the east of Pan Shan Village. Not only were there commoners living there, there were also cultivators who gathered there to have fun.
"After climbing over two mountains, you'll see that small city. Immortal Elder Xu, why don't I go? "
Da Zhuang was very worried when he heard that Xu Que was going out to buy supplies for the village.
This was because Xu Que's arrest warrant had been posted everywhere in the small town. If he appeared, he would definitely be besieged by even more immortal cultivators.
"There's no need. There are too many things. You won't be able to bring them back by yourself. Furthermore, it would easily arouse suspicion. I can handle it." Xu Que patted Da Zhuang's shoulder and rejected his suggestion.
Actually, right now, Xu Que couldn't wait for more people to come and give him experience. Furthermore, he had just received Xiao Yan's black robe which could conceal his appearance. He didn't have to worry about being discovered by the immortal cultivators.
Having made up his mind, Xu Que asked Da Zhuang to go around and ask if there was anything else that the villagers needed to buy. He could then conveniently buy it back.
When Xiao Rou heard this, she was the first to run over and said, "Brother Xu Que, when you come back, remember to buy some good cloth."
"Cloth?" Xu Que was stunned.
Blushing, Xiao Rou nodded and said in a low voice, "Your clothes don't fit. I … I want to make a new one for you."
Hearing this, Xu Que lowered his head to look at the coarse hemp clothes on his body and then looked at Xiao Rou's bashful appearance. He couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, I will buy it."
"Okay." Xiao Rou responded and immediately turned around and jogged away.
Looking at her cute back, Xu Que felt a wave of warmth in his heart. The corners of his mouth unconsciously curled into a happy smile.
… …
It wasn't until the evening when the sun was about to set that Xu Que prepared to leave.
He passed through the tunnel and changed into Xiao Yan's black robe. After confirming that there was no one in the back mountain, he quietly used the Three Thousand Volts Lightning and rushed into the distance.
Night gradually fell and Xu Que finally arrived at Li Shui Town.
Although it was called a small town, it wasn't small at all.
Xu Que glanced at it from afar and felt that the town was at least as big as a few football fields. Moreover, the city walls were built very high, and there were even patrols at the city gates.
From time to time, cultivators could be seen flying on their swords in the sky above Lishui Town.
When Xu Que walked into Water Town, the town was still very lively. The night market was flourishing and brightly lit.
Several inns were noisy. Many cultivators were drinking and chatting, but most of them were disciples of sects in the Qi Refining Stage.
Xu Que took a few casual glances and was about to leave when he suddenly saw a familiar figure pass by him.
"Is that her?"
Xu Que exclaimed in his heart.
The owner of the figure was the first woman that Xu Que saw when he first arrived in this world. She was Tang Xue Rou from the Celestial Sect.
At this point, there were a few other young cultivators who were also wearing the robes of the Celestial Sect. A group of them carried swords on their backs as they walked out of the inn, talking and laughing. It was obvious that they had just finished their meal and were preparing to leave.
When the few of them walked out, their gazes landed on Xu Que at the same time and they were all startled.
Tang Xue Rou didn't recognize Xu Que. This was because Xu Que was wearing Xiao Yan's black robe. Not only was his appearance covered, but he was also emitting a strong pressure.
The few of them were attracted to him because of this pressure.
Xu Que couldn't be bothered with them and didn't want to reveal his identity. He didn't say a word and walked past them.
Just as he took a few steps forward, he heard a few people whispering to each other.
"What a strong aura!"
"This person's attire is so weird and yet his cultivation level is so high."
"When he was standing beside us just now, I felt like I was suffocating. He's so strong!"
"..."
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 10 act tough points."
The system beep rang out in Xu Que's mind, and he was elated.
He thought to himself that he didn't guess wrong. This black robe was really a good tool to act tough. Seems like I should wear it more often to walk around the streets.
"Oh yes, did you guys hear? Today, a few sects got into trouble. It's said that the person we wanted was in Pan Shan Village. In the end, a few of the Sect Elders led a group of people there and they all died. Only two disciples from the Sunset Faction managed to escape. "
"Of course I know. The Sunset Faction even came to our Celestial Sect today to discuss this matter."
"I also heard that the person has a strong background. He's a disciple of some big shot."
At this point, the few Celestial Sect disciples behind him started chatting again.
These few sentences were coincidentally heard by Xu Que. He stopped in his tracks and his face was filled with astonishment.
What's going on?
I have a strong background? And I'm a disciple of some big shot?
