Chapter 75 Situation

Knock knock knock!

Footsteps came from above.

Du Zhong's expression changed slightly, and he reached out to cover Wu Yunmiao's mouth.

The three people hiding in the dry well held their breath, fearing that the people above would come down.

The footsteps were chaotic, clearly not those of guards patrolling the governor's mansion.

Du Zhao was very clever; she quickly made the connection.

The governor's mansion was also in chaos.

Until the footsteps faded into the distance.

Liu Xiaocao then spoke softly.

"I wonder how your father and the others are doing now?"

Upon hearing this, Du Zhao offered words of comfort.

"Don't worry, Father has been fighting for so many years and has seen all kinds of situations. He may have already reunited with Brother Guang by now."

Liu Xiaocao sighed and said.

"I don't really want them to come."

Upon hearing this, Du Zhao fell silent.

She knew her mother was worried about her father, and she was also worried about Xu Guang.

They also didn't want Xu Guang and his men to come.

Actually, she didn't have much to say about how strong Xu Guang was. She only knew that he was stronger than most of the government troops and even stronger than some martial arts masters. The key was that he was very young. Given some time, he could surpass all the masters she had ever met.

But the key issue is that he is too young.

Liu Xiaocao noticed her daughter's thoughts and quickly changed the subject, whispering, "Xiao Guang will definitely come to save you."

Du Zhao remained silent.

"By the way, Youniang, you'll be eighteen after the New Year. He's so healthy and has great talent for martial arts. When you marry him, you can have a few more children with him."

Du Zhao:————

Isn't this topic shifting a bit too quickly?

"When I gave birth to you, your father was still a soldier. I developed health problems. Now that Xiao Guang is successful, you will definitely be able to have many children in the future. But not too many, ten or eight is enough. Any more than that and I won't be able to manage."

"Mother! Do you think I'm a pig?"

A soft chuckle came from the side.

The conversation between the mother and daughter finally eased the heavy atmosphere a bit.

But at that moment!

Suddenly, footsteps sounded overhead again.

Immediately following was a sound that sent chills down the spines of the three people in the well.

"There's someone down in the mine!!"

The color drained from the faces of the three people instantly.

Someone has come looking for us.

Soon, one sound after another came.

A head slowly appeared at the well opening, causing Wu Yunmiao to involuntarily cover her mouth.

That's not a normal person's head; to be precise, it's a pig's head!

A pig's head that speaks human language.

It's—a demon!

The pig demon seemed to have night vision, its eyes glowing green as it stared intently at Du Zhao and the other two.

"They're all women! Women with delicate, fair skin!"

These words instantly drew cheers from all the demons above.

Their king's favorite women are those with fair and delicate skin, and these few must be offered to him.

boom!

The well opening was forcibly pried open by the two demons.

The moon was half-set, its light barely visible, only pairs of pale green eyes.

suddenly.

A sound of wind breaking could be heard.

Chi Chi Chi!

Under Du Zhao's gaze, a pair of green eyes lost their luster.

A dark light slowly exploded at the wellhead.

"Young lady, come up here."

The three exchanged a glance, and a flicker of excitement appeared in their previously despairing eyes.

"It's Brother Guang!"

"Xiao Guang?!"

The fire extinguisher rises.

A face emerged from behind the firelight; it was none other than Xu Guang.

ground.

Du Zhao looked at the pig demon corpses lying haphazardly at the well opening. She counted them; there were four.

"Brother Guang, did you kill them all?"

[Slay 4 demons who have been around for ten years, inheriting their karma, and gaining 1 good result and 43 bad results]

The demons have not yet entered the city in large numbers, but the karma they bear is already heavy, and the consequences are numerous.

Xu Guang lifted Wu Yunmiao up with one hand, met Du Zhao's gaze, and nodded with a smile.

"It's alright now, let's go."

Du Zhao rushed forward and hugged Xu Guang tightly.

Xu Guang did not dodge, but simply reached out and gently stroked her back.

Du Zhao quickly relaxed, "Let's go, Brother Guang, I want to practice martial arts when we get back."

Xu Guang smiled and nodded.

With Du Zhao and the other two in tow, Xu Guang unconsciously slowed down a bit. He led the three over the high wall and into the courtyard next door where Du Zhao and the others had previously hidden.

Xu Guang's eyes narrowed slightly.

There was already someone in the courtyard, or more accurately, a demon.

"You're very bold to trespass on our territory."

As the first light of dawn began to appear on the earth, Xu Guang looked at the pig demon that was over two meters tall.

-

Black energy gathered around him, and the houses behind him were incredibly hazy.

Even though Du Zhao and his two companions had never seen any demons before, they knew that this demon was no ordinary creature.

"Brother Guang, you go first—"

Du Zhao blurted out the words without thinking, and at the same time took a step forward, as if she wanted to use her body to shield Xu Guang from the demons in front of her.

Wu Yunmiao was also one of them.

"Walk?"

The pig demon chuckled and slowly walked forward.

"None of you will be leaving."

As he spoke, his red cloak billowed in the wind, gathering demonic energy.

Fifty Years of Demons—

Xu Guang breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a hint of anger.

"Who do you think you are, trying to put on airs in front of me?"

The black sword spun out.

The pig's head hit the ground.

Du Zhao and the other two stood motionless, as if they had been frozen in place by a spell.

Until Xu Guang picked up the demon core.

Du Zhao finally came to her senses. She looked at Xu Guang and took a deep breath.

"Brother Guang, you—"

"Just how strong are you right now?"

Xu Guang met her gaze, a smile appearing on his lips. "Better than anyone you've ever met."

East Street.

Qian Yue stared at the map in front of him with a frosty expression. It marked the strongholds of some great demons.

Tang Qiuyao poisoned the army camp the night before, causing heavy losses to the yamen troops. Now, only a little over three hundred men remain with Qian Yue, hiding in the city.

The reason for their attempt to break out of the city was that many of their own troops still harbored resentment, so they had to endure it for the time being.

-

"Father, have some porridge. You haven't eaten all day."

Qian Ping brought over a bowl of thin porridge, placed it aside, and said softly.

He had lost his former high spirits; his chin was covered in stubble, and he looked utterly dejected.

Qian Yue put down the map and let out a long sigh.

"Ping'er, do you think it would have been better if I hadn't brought you all back with me when I went to Shuofang City?"

He had gone to the military governor's mansion to ask for military pay before, and Sun Ganxuan's attitude was very good at that time. He never dreamed that the other party would be so ruthless.

Qian Ping remained silent; who could have predicted that?

Moreover, the Qian family had many products in Shuocheng at that time; who could so easily give them up?

Qian Yue also knew that what he said was somewhat foolish.

He knew his own character; he couldn't live without power, and without his own army, he was nothing.

"General!!"

Just then, the door was pushed open by a short boy wearing a melon-shaped hat. He rushed in, saw Qian Ping, called out "Big Brother," and spoke rapidly.

"Something's happened! A demon with fifty years of cultivation has died, and all the demons in the governor's mansion have gone mad. They've all come out to find the person who killed the pig demon."

,

Qian Yue and Qian Ping exchanged a glance. "What did you say?"

The boy in front of me is the son of Qian Yue's mistress. He bullies men and women in Shuocheng and runs rampant in the city. He is no good.

But at this moment, these old cronies of the kid have become Qian Yue's source of information.

"I said, news came from the governor's mansion that someone killed a fifty-year-old demon there!"
