"Roar!" — —
A long howl came from below. Ye Xuan held the long saber in his hand and swung it down. The monster that was originally more than three feet tall suddenly transformed into a monster that was more than two feet tall and nearly three feet long.
"Clang!" — —
The crescent blade struck the monster's head, causing sparks to fly. Then, the monster stretched its neck and opened its bloody mouth to bite at Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan threw the remaining stick in his hand into the monster's mouth. Then, he kicked the monster's head with his right foot and quickly retreated.
"Bam! Boom! "
With the monster's size, it could easily destroy a house with a flick of its head and tail. The houses nearby were instantly destroyed by the monster's body and tail.
"Ah, a monster, a monster!"
"Help, there's a monster!"
The commoners lit torches and came out. When they saw the gigantic monster, they immediately screamed in fear.
"Roar!" — —
When the monster saw a commoner in front of it, it roared and stuck its head out. It opened its bloody mouth and bit at the commoner.
When the commoner saw the monster coming, he trembled in fear. He could not even move his legs, let alone run. He could only watch as the huge mouth full of sharp teeth bit at him.
"Exorcism and execution of evil, as urgent as the law, order!"
Just as the commoner was about to be eaten by the monster, a loud roar came from afar. Then, a dozen yellow talismans turned into dozens of yellow streams of light and rushed into the monster's gaping mouth.
"Bam! Bam! Bam! " — —
The monster's mouth did not have the protection of its scales. Although a low-level exorcism talisman might not have much effect on it, a large number of ants could kill an elephant. A dozen low-level exorcism talismans exploding in the monster's mouth was even more powerful than a dozen hand grenades exploding in its mouth. This was because if they were hand grenades, the monster's demonic aura could even suppress the explosion of the hand grenades in its stomach. However, exorcism talismans were specially used to fight against demonic aura, Yin aura, and evil aura. To monsters, the talismans drawn by human cultivators were like acid. Once they came into contact with the demonic aura of the monster, they would immediately break through the demonic aura and explode into the monster's body.
"Roar!" — —
The monster let out a shrill howl and spat out green blood mixed with flesh. Its huge body went limp and fell to the ground, twitching a few times. He stopped moving.
"Thank you, Immortal Master, for slaying the demon!" Seeing the monster lying on the ground and the young man floating in the air, the commoners all knelt in the direction of Ye Xuan and worshipped him.
Wisps of golden light entered the space between Ye Xuan's eyebrows. Then, like swallows returning to their nest, they integrated into his Primordial Spirit. Ye Xuan instantly felt a refreshing feeling coming from his Primordial Spirit.
It seems that the Primordial Spirit I condensed is definitely related to faith. Feeling the feeling from the Primordial Spirit, Ye Xuan thought with certainty.
Ye Xuan frowned at the sight of the monster that had completely stopped breathing and the increasing number of ordinary people kneeling on the ground. He turned around and quickly headed in the opposite direction of the inn.
Ye Xuan wasn't someone who liked to be in the limelight. The reason why he headed in the opposite direction of the inn was mainly because there were too many people on the streets. Moreover, this place was too close to the inn. If he were to openly walk in the direction of the inn, he would definitely expose his tracks. When the commoners found the inn, it would be a real headache for him. That would really give him a headache. Therefore, he took a detour until he saw that no one was paying attention to the inn. Only then did he leap back to his room.
Because of the appearance of a monster, most of the people in the town who were sleeping were startled. Especially when they heard that the monster had died, some curious people even stopped sleeping and carried lanterns to see the legendary monster.
That night, many of the townspeople couldn't sleep. They looked at the monster that had fallen to the ground and listened excitedly to the story of how the Immortal Master fought the monster, killed it, and then turned around to ascend to immortality.
Because it was dark at that time and there were only commoners present, the lanterns in their hands couldn't see Ye Xuan's true appearance. Therefore, they didn't know that the Immortal Master they were talking about was actually staying in the inn not far away.
"It's said that the demon is 30 Zhang long and 15 Zhang tall. A single stomp from it is enough to turn a person into meat paste. Just as the demon is about to harm someone, a Daoist wearing a purple gold Daoist crown, a white Daoist robe, and a pair of cloud-patterned boots appeared in the air. He held a snow-white horsetail whisk in his hand and shouted," Evil creature, hurry up and surrender! " Then, a golden light flashed and the monster fell to the ground … "
The next day, when Ye Xuan walked down the stairs, he heard the voices of people talking in the inn. The content was nothing more than the scene of Ye Xuan fighting the monster last night. Listening to these people talking about it with saliva flying everywhere, it was as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
Sitting next to them, Ye Xuan could not help but shake his head with a smile as he listened to these people. Then he paid the bill and asked the waiter to bring his horse out. He clamped his legs, and the black horse neighed. Leaving those legends behind him, it galloped towards the direction of Jinhua at full speed.
That was exactly what it meant to hide one's identity and name after the deed was done!
After another three days, Ye Xuan finally arrived in Jinhua. After asking for directions to Guobei County, Ye Xuan rode there on horseback.
"Sir, may I know which way Guobei County is?" Ye Xuan rode past a fork in the road. When he was about to ask someone again, he saw a scholar who was wearing a white scholar's robe and carrying a small bookcase on his back respectfully asking for directions from an old man.
Looking at the scholar, Ye Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He thought to himself that it couldn't be such a coincidence.
An old farmer looked at the scholar and pointed at a road. "Guobei County? Follow this road for five kilometers and climb over a mountain. You'll see a stone tablet with 'Guobei County' written on it. Another five kilometers and you'll reach the market."
"Okay. Thank you, sir!" After hearing the old farmer's directions, the scholar bowed respectfully to the old farmer. Then, he adjusted the book case on his back and strode toward the direction the old farmer had pointed.
Seeing that the scholar left with the bookcase, Ye Xuan curled his lips. He kicked the horse's belly and urged it to follow the road …
