Chapter 883
The Haoyang Empire is vast.
The Tao Tian River that Xiao Zhan is going to now is the longest river in the Haoyang Empire.
It took Xiao Zhan half a day to arrive at the Tuotian River, and then he flew along the river bank.
The target river area is still a long way away from him.
On the way, Xiao Zhan found many people fleeing.
They had a family and a family, and they were so tired that they were exhausted.
Xiao Zhan slowly landed on the river bank and walked towards a group of people sitting on the ground resting in the distance.
It can be seen that these people should be from a village, there are about a hundred or so, not many young and strong, only a dozen, and everyone is injured.
The rest are old, young, women and children.
Although Xiao Zhan was not wearing any fancy clothes, he was just wearing a gray cloth robe, and even had his hair loose.
But the unearthly aura about him still made these people look frightened.
Xiao Zhan threw the wine gourd in his hand to one of the men with a beard who looked like the leader.
The big man stretched out his scarred hand to catch it, then opened the cork and smelled it. After confirming that it was wine, he took a swig, and then handed the wine gourd to other men.
"Thank you, Your Excellency!" The bearded man stood up. His strong body, nearly two meters tall, was a little wobbly.
Xiao Zhan nodded lightly and asked casually:
"Are you a refugee?"
The big man with a beard nodded and said with a painful expression:
"A great demon emerged from the turbulent river, and many villages were destroyed."
"If we hadn't run so fast, we would have become food in that monster's mouth!"
Xiao Zhan frowned.
Because the target area is at least a hundred thousand miles away from the current location.
Even if these people fled, they would never be able to go this far in their lifetime.
So there are only two explanations.
Otherwise, there were other big monsters nearby that were not Xiao Zhan's original target.
Otherwise, the big demon has moved to the nearby river area.
And Xiao Zhan only knew that the big demon possessed the strength of the Fusion Realm. As for whether it was the early, middle, late or peak stage of integration, Xiao Zhan didn't even know what the big demon's body was or what it looked like.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan asked:
"What does that big demon look like?".br>
The tall man with a beard shook his head:
"You can't see clearly. It's huge. Every time it appears, the water in the river splashes hundreds of feet high."
"Those who were close enough were already photographed into the river before they could see the appearance of the big demon clearly."
Xiao Zhan turned his head and looked at the thousands of meters wide river beside him.
The big man with a beard raised his hands and said:
"I see that you are not an ordinary person, so I'd better stay away from the river bank to prevent innocent people from being harmed."
"The big monster might appear at some point!"
Xiao Zhan looked puzzled:
"In that case, why are you still walking along the river bank?"
The big man with a beard looked bitter:
"We are all fishermen and we make a living by fishing."
"If we get too far from the river bank, we won't have anything to eat!"
Xiao Zhan said "hmm".
Right now.
A white light swooped down from the sky.
In the blink of an eye, a flying boat more than ten feet long landed on the ground.
Two men and one woman jumped out of the flying boat. They looked young. They were all wearing white robes with luxurious patterns embroidered in gold.
Seeing these three people, the surrounding villagers, including the big man with a beard who took the lead, quickly clasped their hands and clasped their fists.
Two men and one woman straightened their backs and raised their chins to scan the crowd.
Just from this action, you can see the disdain in their eyes.
"Are you a refugee?"
take the lead
The bearded man nodded quickly:
"Hello, three...three immortals!"
He was so nervous that he was sweating profusely:
"A big demon appeared in the river, and we are fleeing."
The young woman snorted coldly, stepped forward and said:
"The three of us are the inner disciples of Weiming Sect!"
"You take us to search for that big monster, and we will kill it!"
The man with the beard's expression changed drastically, and he quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowing and saying:
"Three immortals, please spare your lives!"
"That big demon is too scary, we can't go and die!"
The woman frowned:
"Are you deaf?"
"I told you, we are the inner disciples of the Weiming Sect!"
"It's just a monster, I can kill it with one sword!"
"It's your honor to let you lead the way!"
"After all, the three of us are probably the only immortals you can see in this life!"
The burly man's eyes turned red.
He looked back at the other villagers and said:
"Take care, I will lead the way for the three immortals!"
An old man with gray hair stood up tremblingly:
"Li Hu, you can't die, you have to lead everyone to live!"
"I, an old man, don't have a few days to live anyway, so I'll lead the way."
Li Hu shook his head:
"No! As long as one of us is alive, we cannot let the old, young, women and children die!"
The woman from the Weiming Sect looked displeased:
"It looks like your mortal ears are really going deaf!"
"What I just said is, all of you, lead the way for us!"
"So, none of you can be missing!"
Li Hu quickly kowtowed, his eyes cracked:
"Three immortals, our village originally had more than a thousand people, but now we are the only ones left."
"Please, let me lead you, okay?"
A dozen other big men also quickly knelt down and shouted:
"Let's lead the way and ask the three immortals to let the others escape!"
But the three Weiming Sect disciples were indifferent.
The old men and women also knelt down:
"I beg you, Immortal, we can all lead the way, just let the children run for their lives!"
The woman from the Weiming Sect smiled disdainfully:
"How about you just lead the way, and when the big demon appears, we will kill it, and you might still be able to survive."
"But if you don't lead the way, you will be blamed for my ruthless sword, and I will kill you ants here!"
Li Hu stood up suddenly, pointed at the woman from the Weiming Sect and roared:
"You want us to be used as bait to attract that big monster to show up!"
"You are so cruel! You are called immortals in vain!"
"Hmph!" The woman from the Weiming Sect sneered, and in a flash, she appeared in front of Li Hu without any warning. She raised her hand and slapped Li Hu on the heart.
The fierce wind suddenly made Li Hu turn pale.
But Li Hu's eyes widened, without any fear in his eyes.
But if this palm really hits Li Hu in the heart, Li Hu will definitely be blown up on the spot and turned into a ball of blood mist.
At the critical moment, a hand slowly stretched out and grabbed the wrist of the Weiming Sect woman.
She turned her head suddenly and stared at Xiao Zhan with narrowed eyes:
"Let go of your dirty hands!"
"I am a member of the Weiming Sect, what qualifications do you have to touch my hand!"
Xiao Zhan asked expressionlessly:
"Wei Ming Zong, isn't it amazing?"
A cold light flashed in the woman's eyes:
"Looking at your poor appearance, you must be a casual cultivator!"
"Even if you are a casual cultivator, you should
Have you heard about the reputation of our Weiming Sect! "
"In this Haoyang Empire, our Weiming Sect can be ranked as a super power in the past life!"
"Who do you think you are, how dare you touch my hand!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the sword held in the woman's other hand suddenly flew out.
After a harsh sword cry, the sword rolled up hundreds of sword energy and stabbed Xiao Zhan fiercely.
Xiao Zhan's face showed no emotion at all. He just glanced at it and saw hundreds of sword energy suddenly exploded.
At the same time, Xiao Zhan trembled.
The woman's wrists, arms, and shoulders were all shattered into powder in an instant.
She screamed and flew backwards.
The other two members of the Weiming Sect suddenly woke up, drew their swords one after another, and rushed towards Xiao Zhan from the left and the right.
Xiao Zhan slowly raised his hand.
The next moment, the ground began to tremble violently.
Pieces of soil and stones rose from the ground and exploded towards the two people.
In just an instant, the two of them were wrapped into two huge stone balls.
Xiao Zhan tightened his fingers.
The next moment, the two stones exploded with a bang, and not even the bones of the two men from the Weiming Sect were left.
The woman who fell to the ground and screamed had her pupils contracted violently.
She had forgotten the pain and her face was filled with fear.
Because she has realized that the plainly dressed person in front of her is someone she cannot afford to offend!
Xiao Zhan slowly stretched out his hand.
An irresistible force immediately took the woman and flew to Xiao Zhan.
She knelt on her knees and kowtowed in panic, her voice trembling:
"Senior, have mercy!"
"This junior is too blind to recognize Mount Tai. I beg you, senior, to spare my life for the sake of our famous sect!"
Xiao Zhan slowly shook his head:
"I just said it."
"You, the famous sect, are nothing."
The woman's face turned pale, she quickly crawled forward a few steps and put her face on Xiao Zhan's lap:
"Senior, I am good-looking. As long as you spare my life, I will be your maid from now on. I will listen to you in everything!"
Xiao Zhan's expression remained calm.
"No, you're ugly."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan raised his feet.
The woman was instantly kicked into the air and landed heavily in front of Xiao Zhan. She was already on the verge of death, blood gurgled from her mouth, and her whole body was twitching.
Xiao Zhan slowly asked:
"This great demon in the mighty river possesses the strength of the Fusion Realm."
"Who do you think you are? You dare to boast that you can kill with one sword?"
The woman's eyes were full of despair.
But she still chose to answer Xiao Zhan, hoping that Xiao Zhan could spare her life.
"Senior...Senior, I didn't know that the great demon in the river was in the Fusion Realm."
"There are many people posting missions on the rivers and lakes, saying that the big monster that appears in the turbulent river is only in the realm of pill formation."
"We...we want the demon elixir in the big demon's body."
Xiao Zhan frowned:
"Is it a mission issued by the Tuoba royal family?"
The woman shook her head:
"No...no."
"Someone anonymously posts missions throughout the Haoyang Empire."
Xiao Zhan looked calm, and with a wave of his hand, the woman flew into the river and quickly sank to the bottom.
Since she wants to use these villagers to lure the big demon to show up, let her feed the fish first.
Xiao Zhan turned around and looked at Li Hu and others.
They were already kneeling on the ground, kowtowing to Xiao Zhan.
"Your Excellency, Immortal, thank you very much for saving your life, Immortal, please accept our worship!"
Li Hu shouted and led the villagers to thank Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan waved his hand, and with a soft force, he led Li Hu and others to stand up straight.
He spoke slowly:
"I am the master of the tenth peak of the Xiuyuan Sect. I am entrusted by the imperial royal family to kill the great demon."
The great name of Xiuyuan Sect is respected by even mortals.
After all, this is the most powerful immortal cultivating sect in the Haoyang Empire.
Even the royal family calls themselves disciples of the Xiuyuan Sect!
Li Hu's eyes turned red:
"If the Immortal comes forward, the big demon will definitely die!"
"People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait finally have a way to survive!"
Xiao Zhan nodded slowly:
"Do you want to return to your homeland, or do you want to find another place to live?"
Li Hu kowtowed three times to Xiao Zhan:
"We want to go back to the village!"
Xiao Zhan said "hmm":
"Then you come with me."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan sat down cross-legged, looked at Li Hu and others and said:
"You guys rest for half an hour and we'll set out in half an hour."
Li Hu nodded quickly, and then respectfully held Xiao Zhan's wine gourd in his hands and handed it to Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan took it and tied it around his waist, then closed his eyes to rest.
Half an hour later, Xiao Zhan led Li Hu and others along the river bank.
Along the way, Xiao Zhan saw many fertile fields and houses that had been washed away by the river.
Xiao Zhan also saw villages turned into ruins.
Li Hu led the people and walked along the river.
Xiao Zhan stood a hundred meters above the river and walked through the air.
