Shen Luo didn't hesitate and bent down to pick up the two children. He rushed into his courtyard and settled them in his room.
"You two stay here. Don't leave the room. I'll come back to treat your injuries after I chase the demonic beasts away," Shen Luo instructed.
"Elder Brother Immortal, don't worry. We'll stay here obediently. I'll protect Ling Er," Xiao Yu replied with a determined expression.
The pain on Ling Er's face had subsided and she nodded vigorously.
Shen Luo smiled at the two children. Then, he turned around and walked out. He used the Wind Chasing Steps and didn't walk on the main road. Instead, he leaped around the village and headed straight for the village entrance.
Previously, when he was chased by the wild leopard, he ran for his life and accidentally comprehended the true meaning of the Chasing Wind Steps. Now that his cultivation had broken through to the Fasting Realm, his body's quality had increased and it had greatly improved his footwork.
At this moment, he was jumping from roof to roof in the village. His figure was light and his speed was astonishing.
The villagers he met on the road could only hear the wind blowing past their ears. When they turned around, Shen Luo was already far away and they couldn't even catch a glimpse of his shadow.
After seven or eight breaths, he arrived at the village entrance.
The village entrance was already filled with the sounds of fighting. The strong villagers were holding all kinds of wooden spears or simple crossbows as they fought with the demonic beasts.
The demonic beasts attacking were the grey apes that they had seen before. However, their numbers were more than double.
Fortunately, there weren't any huge flying birds and the apes hadn't attacked the village yet. However, there were too many of them this time. More than ten grey apes stood in the distance and continuously threw stones at the village entrance. The stones smashed onto the village's fence, creating a dense "peng peng" sound.
Another dozen or so apes had already rushed to the fence and were fiercely smashing the fence with the stone clubs in their hands.
The fence shook incessantly and was about to collapse.
The people on the platform behind the fence shot arrows and threw spears in an attempt to drive away the grey apes. However, the results weren't ideal.
Ying Luo was also standing on the platform, but he didn't use the Fireball Technique to attack the grey apes below. Instead, he nervously looked into the distance as if he was on guard against something.
"Immortal Master Shen!"
The crowd at the door soon noticed Shen Luo, and they were pleasantly surprised.
Shen Luo's eyes swept across the area, and saw the situation clearly. He stood still and waved his hands.
A splashing sound was heard from the well in front of the nearest house. A white stream of water shot out, and then divided into four water arrows.
"Go!"
Shen Luo made a hand seal, and four water arrows immediately shot out from the gaps in the fence, hitting the chests of the four gray apes that were attacking the fence.
Bang bang bang bang!
The speed of the water arrow was so fast that the four grey apes couldn't react in time. Their bodies were sent flying, and a bowl-sized bloody hole was ruptured in their chests. They fell to the ground, and struggled for a few moments. But, they soon stopped moving.
When the people of the Village of Longevity saw this scene, they were stunned for a moment before they reacted and burst into cheers of surprise.
The group of apes outside were shocked and angry. They continuously beat their chests and roared at Shen Luo.
Shen Luo turned a blind eye to them, and his figure swept near the fence. He jumped up and landed beside Ying Luo. Following her line of sight, he focused his gaze in the distance.
He saw that on top of a pile of rocks, dozens of feet away from the village, there was a three foot tall giant ape. Its body was jet-black, but its eyes were dark green. It was looking at Ying Luo from afar. The depths of its eyes didn't have the berserk look of an ordinary grey ape. Instead, it was clear that it had awakened its intelligence.
Such a huge body, coupled with a calm dark green gaze, gave Ying Luo a lot of pressure. A layer of sweat had already seeped out of her white forehead.
When Shen Luo looked at the black giant ape, the latter's gaze also turned and looked at Shen Luo.
Shen Luo's expression didn't change. He waved his hand again, and a stream of water shot out from the well not far away. It changed into four water arrows, and hit the four grey apes who were throwing stones in the distance. Once again, the arrows neatly pierced through their chests.
When the black giant ape saw this scene, a trace of killing intent flashed in its dark green eyes. Its hands fiercely beat its chest, and it opened its mouth to let out a high-pitched ape cry.
When the monkeys outside the village heard this, as if they had heard an order, they all stopped attacking, turned around, and fled.
At this moment, another four water arrows pierced through the void. Its speed was far above the running of these grey apes. In the blink of an eye, they caught up with the four monkeys and pierced through their backs, bringing out a stream of blood.
The four grey apes didn't make a sound and fell to the ground immediately.
"Roar!"
The black giant ape in the distance saw this scene, and its eyes blazed with anger. It waved its thick ape arm.
A black shadow flew over, and issued an ear-piercing sound of breaking through the air. Its speed was astonishingly fast. It seemed as if a black lightning had crossed a distance of several hundred feet in the blink of an eye, and arrived several feet in front of Shen Luo. It was a head-sized black stone.
The black stone hadn't arrived, but a gust of strong wind had already hit Shi Mu's face, and made his clothes flutter.
Shen Luo was slightly surprised. A blue light flashed on the surface of his body, and he was about to cast a water-repelling light shield. But then, a group of red fireball shot from the side, and blocked the black stone.
"Bang" a loud sound was heard, and the black fireball disintegrated in the flames.
However, the fireball was obviously at a disadvantage. The disintegrated flames were pushed back by the fierce wind brought by the stone.
Countless disintegrated black stones were wrapped in the strong wind. The direction of the fireball's attack was slightly deviated, and hit the other side of the fence.
Suddenly, several people on the fence were hit in the thighs or arms by the stones. They screamed miserably and fell down, their bodies dripping with blood. One of them was even hit in the chest, and his entire body was sent flying.
When Shen Luo saw this scene, his gaze suddenly became cold.
"Elder Brother Shen, be careful. That black ape is the Ape King, and it's extremely strong. I'm afraid it has already reached the stage of fasting," Ying Luo said with an abnormally serious expression.
"A few grey apes were killed a few days ago. Is the Ape King here for revenge?" Shen Luo looked at the black ape and asked.
When the black ape in the distance saw that the black stone was ineffective, it let out a low roar, and one of its claws reached out for another black stone.
"I'm afraid so. Ape type Monster Beasts always move in groups, and their vengeful nature is very strong. Today, the village is truly in danger," Ying Luo said in a low voice, as if he was afraid that the nearby people would hear and affect the morale of the village.
"Since it's a vengeful Monster Beast, we can't let it escape. We have to eliminate it by the roots," Shen Luo said in a low voice.
"What?" When Ying Luo heard this, he was stunned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Shen Luo's words.
"You guard this place well. I'll be back soon." Shen Luo didn't explain any further. Before he finished speaking, his figure had already jumped down from the high platform, directly landing outside the village. He took large strides and quickly rushed in the direction of the black ape.
At the same time, a splashing sound came from the nearby well, and several streams of water once again shot out, converging into a water dragon in the air, dancing around its body.
