Ye Kong had killed many of these Fire Spitting Crows back in Cangbei. They were low-tier, high-tier demon birds. They were violent and did not fear death. Messing with them was a very troublesome matter.
However, in the Spirit Devouring Poison Miasma, the strength of the Fire Spitting Crows had decreased significantly. This was because they could not breathe fire. They could not use their demon power, so naturally they could not breathe fire.
But even so, the man and woman were clearly not a match for the Fire Spitting Crows. After all, the Fire Spitting Crows were low-tier, high-tier demon birds, while these two were mortal martial artists.
The man was about twenty years old. He wore old clothes and held a chipped machete in his hand. At this moment, he was brandishing the machete vigorously. The woman was also about eighteen or nineteen years old. She held a dagger in her hand. It could be seen that she practiced a light and agile martial art. The two of them had dark skin. It was obvious that they were villagers in the Spirit Devouring Poison Miasma.
The man was bold and decisive while the woman was cautious. They looked like a good match. However, they had encountered a flock of Fire Spitting Crows.
There were about a hundred of these Fire Spitting Crows. On the tree, there were about sixty to seventy crows cawing as if they were cheering. Under the tree, there were thirty to forty Fire Spitting Crows surrounding the young man and woman.
These Fire Spitting Crows were extremely shrewd. They did not fight them head-on. Instead, they cawed and circled in the sky. When the man's machete slackened, they would suddenly swoop down and peck at the man and woman. They would tear their clothes and pick up a small piece of flesh.
At this moment, the man was covered in blood. His gray pants were stained with blood. His wounds were still bleeding. Most importantly, he was almost out of strength. The woman's condition was slightly better. However, her clothes were torn and could not cover her body. Even her bulging breasts could be seen.
Looking at their feet, other than the Fire Spitting Crow feathers, there was only the corpse of a Fire Spitting Crow.
"Little sister, leave quickly. I can't hold on any longer." The man panted heavily. It was obvious that he had reached the point where he could not hold on any longer.
"Husband, I won't leave." The woman was quite loyal. She would not leave no matter what. She raised her dagger and chased away another Fire Spitting Crow.
The man clenched his teeth and shouted, "We can't all die here! I'm almost out of strength. Leave! If you don't leave, I won't dance anymore! "
The man used the last of his strength to swing the broadsword in his hand. The Fire Crows seemed to know that they were cornered beasts that were still struggling. They cawed as they flew up and let out mocking laughter.
The woman's eyes were filled with tears. She didn't know whether she should leave or not. It was difficult to make a decision.
Ye Kong wasn't a cold-blooded person to begin with. It wasn't his style to not lend a hand in such a situation.
At this time, the two people were already on the verge of death. The fire-breathing crows on the tree had all flown up, ready to enjoy this delicious meal. In the end, the woman could not bear to leave the man behind.
"Youngest sister."
"Husband."
The two gave up resisting and hugged each other …
"Pa!" A sharp tearing sound rang out, followed by a series of cracking sounds. At the same time, the cries of the Fire Crows turned into terror.
The death that they were waiting for did not come. The man and woman opened their eyes in surprise, only to find several Fire Crow corpses that had been cut in half on the ground.
"This is …" The woman cried tears of joy. She covered her face and cried, "Husband, we're saved!"
The man wasn't stupid. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he once again swung his broadsword and followed Ye Kong to chase away the Fire Crows that refused to give up.
These fire-breathing crows were fierce beasts that didn't fear death. Although they were initially startled by Ye Kong's sudden appearance, after a brief moment of panic, they all became furious. They flapped their wings and charged at Ye Kong.
"Bastard who doesn't care about his life." Ye Kong coldly snorted. He showed no mercy. His Night Dance was like a black gust of wind, and he occasionally leaped into the air to kill the fire-breathing crows in the air.
Although the man and woman were fighting with Ye Kong against the fire-breathing crows, they felt uneasy. They didn't know the person in front of them. It was hard to say whether being saved by him was a blessing or a curse. The man noticed that the clothes on the woman's chest were torn. He hurriedly signaled with his eyes for the woman to pull up her clothes.
Only then did the woman realize that she had already been exposed. She hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, but her heart was filled with panic. This young man who saved them wouldn't make any unreasonable demands, right? They couldn't be blamed for their worry. In this Soul Devouring Poison Miasma, there were very few women, and even fewer young women. The young men were like hungry wolves. Since he had saved you, you could only repay him with your body.
In actuality, Ye Kong had already seen it. However, his wives were all incomparably beautiful. How could he be tempted by this dark-skinned, dark-skinned woman? Seeing the man's actions, he didn't say anything and continued to kill the Fire Crows.
Although the fire-breathing crows didn't fear death, after losing half of their corpses, they knew that they wouldn't be able to enjoy today's feast. The leader of the Fire Crows let out a caw, and all the other fire-breathing crows flapped their wings and disappeared without a trace.
With the danger averted, the man's last bit of strength disappeared. His figure swayed and he unexpectedly fell to the ground.
"Husband!" The woman screamed and rushed over.
Ye Kong put Ye Wu back on his back, looked at him and said, "It's alright, he's just exhausted. Give him some water and something to eat, and he'll be fine soon."
The woman was young, and at this moment, she was already out of her wits. Hearing Ye Kong's words, she hurriedly took out a leather pouch and gave it to the man to drink. Then, she took out a large flatbread and tore it in half. She gave half to her husband and the other half to Ye Kong.
Ye Kong's heart warmed. It seemed that humans still had a sense of camaraderie. No matter what, this action of giving the flatbread made Ye Kong feel that he hadn't saved these two people in vain.
Of course, Ye Kong naturally wouldn't eat the flatbread.
The man drank a mouthful of water, and his complexion became much better. He hurriedly struggled to bow to Ye Kong.
Ye Kong waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. I just saw injustice and pulled out my sword to help. Besides, these fire-spitting crows are nothing to me … But I have something to ask you, and you have to answer truthfully."
The couple hurriedly nodded and said, "Big brother, thank you for saving our lives. We'll answer truthfully."
Ye Kong asked, "Actually, I'm looking for the Road Permit to the Black Dragon City. I wonder if you've heard of any village that has found it or found a way to get it?"
The woman smiled bitterly and said, "It's impossible for us to get it. Although those monster cultivators have lost their spiritual energy, they are still extremely powerful. They won't let us get it. Even if someone found it, they wouldn't tell us."
Ye Kong thought about it and felt anxious. Asking them this kind of question was basically asking the blind. He asked again, "Then where do you think there are more Demonic Beasts, or where do you think Demonic Cultivators would die?"
The woman lowered her head and pondered, while the man rolled his eyes and thought of a place.
"Big Brother, what a coincidence. I know of a place where there are many Demonic Beasts. Moreover, a few days ago, I happened to find the corpse of a Demonic Cultivator there. I originally wanted to go there to see if there were any treasures left behind, but the Demonic Beasts there are not things that I can deal with.
Ye Kong was overjoyed. He had asked the right person. Generally, 80% of the monster cultivators walking in the Spirit-devouring Poisonous Miasma would have a Road Permit. If they found the body, they would find the token. As for the monsters, Ye Kong didn't consider them at all.
"Tell me about it," Ye Kong said calmly.
"About 15 kilometers east from here, there will be a swamp …" Just as the man said this, the woman cried out in alarm.
The man hurriedly asked, "Younger sister, what's wrong?"
The woman looked panicked. She hurriedly covered her chest and said, "My clothes are torn."
The man hurriedly said, "Big brother, please don't laugh at me. My wife is always so shy."
Ye Kong nodded. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. He said, "Go on."
The man hurriedly said, "Out of this canyon, off the dirt road, into the dense forest, and about 15 kilometers to the east, there is a swamp. I saw the body of the monster cultivator at the edge of the swamp. It seemed to have died only a few days ago … But big brother, there are many monsters there, and it is very dangerous. If you want to go, you should think about it."
Ye Kong finally showed a trace of joy on his face. "Died only a few days ago?"
The man's eyes were a little confused, but he said firmly in an instant, "It should be … But I was in a hurry, and the color of the clothes of the dead monster cultivator is still very new."
Ye Kong blinked his eyes and said with a sarcastic smile, "The clothes are still very new?"
"Yes." The man looked at Ye Kong with a flattering look. But the woman lowered her head.
Ye Kong said no more and strode to the exit of the canyon.
When Ye Kong's figure disappeared, the man finally let out a long sigh. His eyes showed a trace of ruthlessness as he sighed, "Big brother, I'm sorry!"
The woman raised her head and said anxiously, "Husband, you knew that there was a Cadaver Demon there, why did you lie to Benefactor?"
"Youngest sister, father had no other choice." The man sighed and said, "My martial arts are not good enough. The few people in the village who are good at martial arts have their eyes on you. Don't think that I don't know that they often make a move on you. Although you have never said anything, I know very well …"
Hearing this, the woman couldn't help but lower her head, but she quickly looked up and said, "What does this have to do with lying to Benefactor?"
"Of course it has something to do with it!" The man said, "Did you see the saber on his back? It can cut gold and jade, and cut iron like mud. If I had this saber, I would be able to make up for the shortcomings of my martial arts. I would be able to fight with those guys in the village!"
"Ah? That's your plan? "The woman looked at the man in surprise.
The man's eyes flashed with ruthlessness as he nodded, "That's right, that's my plan. That youth's martial arts are very strong, and we are not his opponent. But as long as he dies in the hands of that Cadaver Demon, we can find an opportunity to secretly take the saber … At that time, you won't be bullied anymore! "
The woman originally wanted to blame her husband, but when she heard what he said, she couldn't say anything. She sighed with hidden bitterness and said, "Husband, he saved us after all. Doing this kind of thing will result in retribution."
The man was somewhat panicked, but he immediately comforted her, "There won't be retribution, I didn't lie to him. He said that he was looking for the corpse of a Demon Cultivator, so that Cadaver Demon is certainly a Demon Cultivator's corpse. Did I lie to him? No! Besides, I also told him that it is very dangerous. If he wants to go, what can we do? "
The man really had a glib tongue. The woman couldn't refute his words, so she could only sigh and silently nod.
At this time, the man stood up and said, "Let's go."
"Where?"
"Follow him. As long as he dies, we can take the saber. We can't let others take advantage of this."
