One Dao Fruit a day, starting with the Dragon Taming Technique.

midnight.

There was no moon or stars, only a dim and gloomy atmosphere.

Layers of clouds loomed overhead, as if the night was about to change.

Xu Guangjia wore a black coat over his armor and walked quickly through the mountains and forests. The sky was high and the clouds were thick, and the forest was quiet and hot.

"Is it going to rain again?"

"I wonder if those deer demons will appear on rainy days."

Xu Guang thought to himself, but having killed the deer demon today, he had to go up the mountain to take a look no matter what.

Suddenly, a gust of wind began to blow, and the entire forest began to sway. The wind grew stronger and stronger, and even the entire mountain range seemed to tremble slightly, with layers of clouds rolling in.

In Xu Guang's view, everything in the world was changing.

Grass.

Judging by this, the rain tonight won't be light.

However, it's not all bad. Demons have a keen sense of smell, and in this kind of windy weather, walking against the wind can greatly weaken their sharp sense of smell.

From afar, Xu Guang spotted Madam Lu's manor, brightly lit, but the light was being blown about erratically by the strong wind, as if the light was dividing the world.

After standing on the hilltop for a while, Xu Guang decided to go deeper inside to take a look.

This was Xu Guang's first time entering Lady Lu's manor.

The manor appears to have been crafted by human artisans, with an aesthetic style very similar to human manors, except that some buildings are larger in scale.

Considering the size of the demons, it's not hard to imagine that the larger houses were where the deer demons lived, while the smaller ones were where the humans kept in the manor lived.

Xu Guang looked at the nearest large house, smeared a layer of mud on his body, and carefully approached it.

The interior layout can be seen at a glance: a huge open bed made of hay, covered with deer fur. Moving the gaze upwards, several ropes can be seen extending down from the roof beams.

Deeper inside was the place where corpses were disposed of; just one glance made Xu Guang feel physically uncomfortable.

The place reeked of decay and rot, the ground was a mess, and a huge, gleaming silver chopping board sat to the side.

Xu Guang felt a surge of murderous intent, but unfortunately, there was no deer demon in this room.

He left quickly and headed towards the next large house.

This room was different from the previous ones; there were no documents for handling corpses, but there were several wine jars that reeked of blood.

He suddenly remembered that when he killed the three deer demons, one of them said, "Infant blood wine."

and so…

Grass!

Xu Guang felt his blood surging within him. Any normal person who saw this scene would be tempted to kill.

Only a god could remain unmoved while watching his own kind become food in front of him.

Xu Guang broke into four or five large houses but still couldn't find any deer demons. It was as if all the deer demons had disappeared overnight.

Suddenly, Xu Guang noticed several people carrying torches in front of the small houses, as if they were on patrol.

He narrowed his eyes.

"Who is it?"

The patrolmen also spotted Xu Guang and were shocked. Recalling the fact that the deer demon had been killed outside the manor a few days ago, they immediately realized that the ruthless person who killed the deer demon had arrived.

Xu Guang didn't say much, nor did he draw his sword; he charged towards these people empty-handed.

Within a few breaths, seven or eight strong men lay scattered on the ground, groaning in pain.

Xu Guang squatted down in front of a person.

"What about the deer demon in Zhuangzi?"

The man glanced at Xu Guang as if he were a tiger or a wolf, then avoided his gaze and whispered, "I don't know. This afternoon, Madam Lu led all the deer demons up the mountain."

"Have you gone up the mountain?"

Xu Guang subconsciously thought of the deaths of Shikamaru and the others, but then immediately dismissed the thought, saying that Shikamaru was no match for Lady Shikamaru, and even if Shikamaru were dead, Lady Shikamaru wouldn't need to hide in the deep mountains.

But then he realized it was impossible; something must have happened deep in the mountains.

While thinking this, his hands remained still, and with a wave of his hand, he crushed the limbs of these accomplices to evil.

These people don't deserve to die at his hands; he'll just throw them into a death row camp.

However, in the process of dealing with these people, Xu Guang learned their origins and discovered that they were members of the Grand Canal Gang.

It was Yang Jinshan who sent them to help Madam Lu. The reason Madam Lu was able to capture so many people in the manor was because they obtained them through deception and trickery.

Xu Guang simply didn't have enough red-named quotas, otherwise he really wanted to kill them with his own hands.

"Since Madam Lu is not here, let my brother-in-law and the others bring people up. Let's rescue these people in the manor first. I wonder how many of them will be counted in the rescue statistics on the panel."

About an hour later, Wang Gan personally led his men over.

"Did the deer demon escape?"

"I've looked almost the entire manor, and there isn't a single demon left."

"Let's be careful. Who are these people?"

Wang Gan pointed to those whose limbs had been crippled by Xu Guang.

"I plan to send that bastard who helps the demons guard their blood offerings to the death row to toughen up the new recruits."

Why bother with all that effort?

Wang Gan gave a signal, and the soldiers behind him drew their swords and stepped forward without the slightest hesitation or pity, their hands swiftly bringing down their blades.

Xu Guang kept an eye on the panel and, seeing no red names appear, breathed a sigh of relief.

The rules for killing and saving people on the control panel are very opaque, and I always feel a sense of unease every time.

After a while.

An open space.

Every time a soldier rescued someone, Xu Guang would go up to him, make an acquaintance, and ask a few questions. Most of them had blank expressions and didn't say much.

Fortunately, these efforts were not in vain.

The notification "[Save +1]" kept appearing on the panel, ringing a total of thirteen times.

Although it was insignificant compared to the 268 people rescued from the manor, Xu Guang was not dissatisfied, since rescuing people today was unbelievably easy.

Xu Guang had been observing that those who appeared in the rescue log on the panel were people who came out looking ashen-faced and already contemplating suicide.

And most of them are women.

Because the deer demons treated these women as breeding tools, similar to cattle and sheep, they had witnessed their own children being brewed into wine.

Xu Guang seemed to be deep in thought. If he didn't save these women tonight, they might commit suicide.

She sighed softly, glancing at the rescued men with a gloomy look, as if she were looking at livestock.

A single thought can be good or evil; good results cultivate character, while evil results hone one's skills.

[6 lives lost, 20 lives saved; current order: Good (receive one good deed reward daily)]

[Bad consequences (328), good consequences (31)]

[Sex: Iron Body Skill (Level 4)]

[Skills: Dragon Taming (Level 4+), Ghost Step (Level 3+)]

The deer demon left in a hurry, but still managed to find a considerable amount of valuables.

Xu Guang didn't care, since his brother-in-law Du Changwei was guarding the valuables, and he was guaranteed his share.

Everything went incredibly smoothly today.

Just as the soldiers were leading the rescued people back to their tents outside the medicinal field, intending to report the matter to the city the next day, the rain that had been brewing all night suddenly began to fall.

In an instant, the world was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to discern directions.

The sudden rain was like a sign of a change in the weather, accompanied by a violent shaking of the earth.

Through the misty fog, the panicked shouts of the soldiers could be heard.

"It's an earthworm turning over!"

Watch your step! Hold on tight!

Shouts rang out continuously.

In the face of truly terrifying natural disasters, so-called martial arts masters are nothing but a joke.

Xu Guang felt uneasy. Everything tonight seemed too strange, from the terrifying celestial phenomena to the deer demons all coming up the mountain, and now to the sudden rain and the earth dragon turning over.

Everything seemed to indicate that something extraordinary was about to happen.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning, resembling a crack in the heavens and earth, vanished in the clouds, and the vast white expanse of sky and earth appeared to be spinning in everyone's eyes.

At that moment, heaven and earth seemed to tilt upside down!

Xu Guang dodged the crack that suddenly appeared beneath his feet, and when he looked up, he felt a chill run through his body.

He subconsciously activated the Fourth Dragon Transformation, and the True Dragon was near the water. Although the dragon within him was fragmented, he could inexplicably see some blurry images through the misty air.

An incredible and terrifying celestial phenomenon appeared in the sky!

That is…
