"Have you heard? Everything in Jijiacun is gone!"
Ji Changyue squatted in the corner and heard someone whisper in a low voice.
"I've heard about this too!" Another person joined in, "I heard that it was a monster attack and the body was chewed to pieces."
"How pitiful!" One person said with lingering fear, "I heard that only two children survived. This monster is so scary."
"Isn't that right? It's been half a month. Do you think the monster will come to the city to eat people again if it gets hungry again?"
"Keep your voice down!" Someone reminded, "The city lord's palace blocked the news immediately. I heard that many people who spread the news were arrested, saying that they were destroying the people's hearts in the city. You are so loud and provocative, are you not afraid of the officers and soldiers coming to arrest you? "
Everyone in the heated discussion was frightened. For a moment, you looked at me and I looked at you, and did not dare to continue talking.
As the only person in Jijia Village who survived, Ji Changyue clenched the jade pendant in her hand, with obvious hatred in her eyes. If that man-eating monster comes again, she will definitely make it pay for the lives of the people of Jijia Village!
"Sister, why are you here? Manager Li said that the Immortal Master is here and wants to see us!" The eleven or twelve-year-old boy ran over, pulling on Ji Changyue's sleeves and panting slightly, looking sad in the past. Finally there was a smile on his face.
"Sister, I heard that the immortal masters are very powerful. I will definitely avenge my father and mother!"
The boy is the son of Ji Changyue's uncle from the same clan next door, named Ji Changan.
When the monster came that night, she only had time to take Ji Changan away.
Ji Changyue looked at his expectant eyes and said nothing.
If Ji Changyue were an ignorant child, she might really be happy that her great revenge would be avenged.
It's a pity that she held the jade pendant in her hand and smiled to herself.
Ever since she escaped death with this jade pendant, she began to dream that she was the control group of the heroine in a book.
At first she didn't understand what the control group meant, but she didn't understand until she finally saw her own ending.
It turns out that her life is just a pawn to set off the glory and majesty of the heroine. The worse she is, the more miserable she is, the more great and selfless the heroine is.
And it all started because of a jade pendant she accidentally picked up.
Ji Changyue didn't believe it at first. There was no basis for such illusory things as dreams. But the Yunshang Immortal Sect mentioned casually by Butler Li yesterday made her convinced that everything she dreamed might be true.
Because the sect where the heroine is in the book is the Yunshang Immortal Sect, the number one Immortal Sect in the world of cultivation, a place that countless cultivators dream of.
"Sister." Ji Changan didn't know what Ji Changyue was thinking, so he shook her arm and urged her.
For him, the most important thing right now is to avenge his dead parents and fellow villagers.
"Okay, let's go there now." Ji Changyue said.
It doesn’t matter what the Immortal Sect is on Yunshang or not, let’s use them to kill the monster to avenge the villagers first, and we’ll talk about the rest later.
When Ji Changyue and Ji Changan arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Manager Li was at the door of the City Lord's Mansion. When he saw the two of them, he immediately came forward, "You kid, where have you gone? The Immortal Master of the Yunshang Immortal Sect has named you and has been waiting for you. It’s been a while, come in quickly!”
Ji Changyue nodded and was about to go in when Manager Li said worriedly, "Don't be afraid, these immortal masters from the Yunshang Immortal Sect were invited by the city lord. You just need to answer their questions well. The immortal masters will not embarrass you." of."
Manager Li didn't know if the immortal master would embarrass Ji Changyue, but saying this would at least make the little girl who had just experienced the destruction of her whole village less afraid.
Not knowing what the manager was thinking, Ji Changyue brought Ji Changan into the living room.
The atmosphere in the living room was solemn. When Ji Changyue and Ji Changan arrived, the city lord coughed lightly and introduced: "Master Immortal, these are the two surviving children of Jijia Village."
The three young men in uniformly dressed in light green clothes nodded slightly as a greeting.
The leading man first looked at Ji Changyue and Ji Changan, and then softened his expression, "I am Li Qingfeng, an inner disciple of the Yunshang Immortal Sect. I have been ordered by the sect to solve the problem in Jijia Village. Next, I will ask you. A few questions, just answer them truthfully.”
Ji Changan stood behind Ji Changyue, tugging on her sleeves and nodding heavily, "If you ask, Master Immortal, my sister and I will definitely cooperate with Master Immortal!"
Ji Changyue also nodded in agreement.
Seeing that both of them had no problem, Li Qingfeng said, "Can you two see what a monster that eats people looks like?"
"I... just... saw a dark person, but I didn't see clearly what the monster looked like."
Ji Changan was already frightened by the fact that his father turned into a pile of bones in the blink of an eye. He could not remember what the monster looked like.
"The monster's eyes have red vertical pupils, and its whole body is wrapped in black mist, so it's hard to see clearly." Ji Changyue said, "However, I saw that there are white bones inside the black mist, and there are black lines on the white bones."
At that time, the monster was injured by the jade pendant. Ji Changyue saw the black mist between the monster's legs dispersed, revealing the bones inside.
"Yes, Sister Yue is right!" Ji Changan quickly agreed.
Li Qingfeng and several others looked at each other and nodded cautiously.
The city lord on the side almost fainted when he saw it, "Is it really a resentful demon in the foundation building stage?"
Demons have always been able to move only in the world of cultivation. The mortal world suppresses demons too much, which will damage the foundation. Moreover, the spiritual energy in the mortal world is thin, so generally no demons will come to the mortal world.
If a demon in the foundation-building stage is in the realm of cultivation, he or she must at least have a golden elixir cultivation level.
The city lord was full of expectations, "May I ask how many immortal masters are here?"
Although it was not polite to ask about other people's cultivation level, in order to look forward to the future of Immortal City, the city lord still asked shamelessly.
Meeting the city lord's gaze, Li Qingfeng shook his head, "Among the three of us, I am the only one with the highest cultivation level. In the middle stage of foundation building, Junior Brother Bai Yu and Junior Brother Wang Yuan are both practicing at the ninth level of Qi."
When the sect received the letter of help from Wangxian City, they thought it was an ordinary low-level demon, so they only sent him and his two juniors to practice. Who knew that the person who caused the massacre of the village turned out to be a resentful demon in the Golden Core stage.
"This...what can we do?" The city lord was desperate.
If he sends another message and waits for someone from the Immortal Sect to come, it will take some time. He can afford to wait, but the people cannot afford to wait, and the resentful demon may not be able to wait until then to take action! If the demon of resentment is not eliminated, he hopes that the people of Immortal City will become restless.
Li Qingfeng was a smart man. He said, "If we ask this girl how she escaped, we might be able to find a solution."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Ji Changyue and suddenly remembered how she, a mortal peasant girl, managed to escape from the hands of the resentful demon with a child.
Relying on the kindness of the resentful demon? Obviously impossible.
Ji Changyue thought to herself, as expected, the matter of the jade pendant cannot be hidden.
On the face, she pretended to be scared and slowly pulled out the jade pendant from her arms, "I relied on this jade pendant to escape that day."
"Jade pendant?"
Li Qingfeng took the jade pendant, looked through it a few times, and found nothing special, then tried to input spiritual power into the jade pendant.
The city lord asked nervously, "How is it?"
Li Qingfeng shook his head, "There is no spiritual power fluctuation, it's just an ordinary jade pendant."
The city lord sighed in disappointment.
Ji Changyue closed her eyes, but of course she couldn't detect the spiritual energy. This jade pendant was still a good thing in the book. It had the effect of gathering luck. Only the Nascent Soul stage and above could use it and feel it. It seemed to be a treasure of some sect.
But why it was lost and why she picked it up, Ji Changyue didn't know.
Although Li Qingfeng was a little disappointed, he didn't say anything. He just asked, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"
Ji Changyue looked at Li Qingfeng with evasive eyes.
Li Qingfeng secretly thought that he had something hidden, but he calmly said in a soft voice, "It doesn't matter, you just say it."
Ji Changyue blushed and murmured, "I went to the market to sell wild animals and saw a girl with a sword drop it. I, I wanted to find her again, but...but she left too fast. …”
Wasn't the jade pendant picked up on the mountain?
Ji Changan looked at Ji Changyue doubtfully but did not say anything.
Ji Changyue's expression on the verge of tears made Li Qingfeng feel relieved. Although he couldn't detect any spiritual energy, the jade pendant was definitely not ordinary. It didn't look like something a peasant girl could own. If she was a martial artist, she might be a cultivator. If a female cultivator in the world has it, that's fair to say.
Seeing Li Qingfeng's expression of relief, Ji Changyue said again, "This jade pendant... is not mine. Immortal Master, please take it away. If you meet that girl, you can return the jade pendant to her."
Ji Changyue thought silently, I gave it to you, take it, take it.
No matter what the Yunshang Immortal Sect or the heroine, she just wants to live well.
Unexpectedly, Li Qingfeng is a gentleman.
Returning the jade pendant to Ji Changyue, Li Qingfeng said: "This thing is precious. If the girl finds out that she has lost it, she will definitely come back to look for it. If I take it away, it will be self-defeating. It is better to put it next to the girl. It is also the girl's chance that she can pick it up. .”
He was like this, but Ji Changyue judged the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
Li Qingfeng asked a few more questions about the Resentment Demon, then discussed with the city lord how to deal with the Resentment Demon, and also contacted the sect urgently to request support.
"Sister." Ji Changan looked at Li Qingfeng and others who were discussing with the city lord, "Can the Immortal Master and the others defeat the monsters?"
Ji Changyue patted his head and said, "What do you want to do, kid? Just sleep well and grow up."
In the book, Ji Changan is just a backdrop. He disappears completely after being killed by the female supporting character, as if he never existed.
Ji Changyue didn't know how he died in the book, but in reality, she wanted to keep him alive no matter what.
Although Ji Changan was a bit cowardly, he listened to Ji Changyue's words.
