It turned out to be the case.
Jiang Ke'er understood. No wonder Jie Shui was so persistent in coming to Sandao Village. It was not only to deliver the letter, but also for the girl he liked.
"My name is Ming Ling," the girl said with a sweet smile, her big eyes very lively.
Jiang Keer noticed that her pupils were violet, and her eyelashes and hair were also purple.
Speaking of which, many of the people in these three villages have hair that is somewhat purple. Although not as bright as Ming Ling's, it is different from any other race in Shenzhou and looks a bit weird and enchanting.
"The purple hair is so beautiful," Jiang Ke'er admired sincerely, and asked casually, "Is it natural?"
"Yeah~" Ming Ling was surprisingly calm. She looked at Jiang Ke'er with envy, "It's a pity that she's not as pretty as you. You're the prettiest person I've ever seen. I'm afraid the whole Jiuzhou will go crazy for you."
Jiuzhou, Jiang Keer noticed her words. Ming Ling was talking about Jiuzhou, not Shenzhou.
The four continents of Dongsheng Shenzhou, Xiniuhezhou, Nanzhanbuzhou and Beijuluzhou, plus Mount Sumeru in the middle sky, all belong to the vast land of Shenzhou.
Jiuzhou is the name given to the great world of Jiuzhou by the creatures in ancient times. The vast land of China is just one of the Jiuzhou.
Moreover, judging from the other party's words, Ming Ling might have seen through her disguise skills. This was the first time her disguise skills failed.
Qiao Xiaoxian also realized this, and she and Jiang Keer looked at each other and frowned.
This village must have a great origin and is definitely not just a slave village.
"Rumble--"
There are still many questions that I haven't had time to figure out. While I was thinking, a loud noise suddenly came from the distance!
The roar of thunder and lightning made everyone's eyes widen. Jiang Ke'er hurriedly climbed to a high place to look into the distance, and saw that the dark clouds were rushing towards the direction of Sandao Village like thousands of troops!
Jiang Ke'er still remembers the day when she first saw the Ruin Beast - as long as the dark clouds cover the sun and lose the sunshine, the Ruin Beast will come early. The condition for the Ruin Beast to come is darkness, not necessarily night.
"Boom Ka——"
Another bolt of lightning pierced through the sky and earth, and Jiang Ke'er's hands and feet were cold - she clearly saw an extremely huge eye in the lightning, standing proudly on the other side of the dark world.
Under those eyes, there are countless shadows with bared fangs and claws, as if waiting for a carnival.
The strong wind that accompanied the rush of dark clouds brought not moisture, but a disgusting smell of blood.
"That's the Xu Realm," Qiao Xiaoxian said, "The lightning will briefly illuminate the Xu Realm on the other side."
"Hurry into the shelter!" Ming Ling's face turned pale. "The tide has arrived early! Three days early!"
Why is it early? And the promised blood moon tide... Where is the blood moon?
Soon Jiang Ke'er knew the origin of the blood moon. Thunder and lightning illuminated the world again. Jiang Ke'er saw a scarlet moon hanging above the heads of those brutal figures.
The blood moon refers to the moon in the Xu world, and it is not the total lunar eclipse astronomical phenomenon that Jiang Keer knows.
What is the principle behind this? Why would the Ruin Beast invade at this time?
“Every time a blood moon comes, the boundary wall between the Ruins Realm and the Ancient Realm of Questioning will become extremely weak, and the Ruins Beasts will take this opportunity to invade on a large scale, trying to pull other creatures into the Ruins Realm as reserve food.” Qiao Xiaoxian saw Jiang Ke’er’s confusion and explained at the right time.
However, while Qiao Xiaoxian was speaking, Jiang Keer's face showed horror and she stared at Qiao Xiaoxian's back.
"Get away!"
Jiang Ke'er drew her sword decisively at the first opportunity, but was still a step too slow.

63. Plan
A silent crack appeared behind Qiao Xiaoxian, which was obviously a premeditated sneak attack!
A giant claw stretched out from the gap, emitting a pressure that was not in line with the beginner realm. It conflicted with the rules of the beginner realm and caused dazzling sparks.
When lightning flashed again, it illuminated the owner of the huge eye. It stretched out its claws and grabbed Qiao Xiaoxian's back!
But Qiao Xiaoxian was completely unaware!
However, when she saw Jiang Keer's expression, Qiao Xiaoxian realized that something was wrong.
She waved her sleeves and spun around, clenching her fists and waist. Half of her hand turned into a dragon claw, which was filled with powerful dragon might. She punched into the claw of the Xu beast!
Although Qiao Xiaoxian's palm was not as big as the beast's finger, and Qiao Xiaoxian's current strength was far inferior to that of the beast, this punch was evenly matched! Amidst the huge explosion, five or six houses around were collapsed by the shock wave and razed to the ground!
Jiang Ke'er rushed forward against the wind and swung her sword at the place where Qiao Xiaoxian punched. With a deafening roar, a finger of the Xu Beast was broken!
The touch from the sword blade made Jiang Ke'er realize the extraordinary nature of the beast's fingers. Even if she caught a weak point, it was still extremely hard to chop. It must be the body part of a super high-level beast. If its strength had not been weakened by the beginner level, it would have been impossible for her and Qiao Xiaoxian to chop it down.
She flipped her hand and put the thick finger into her inventory, preparing to keep it for refining or sell it for a good price.
"The finger of the leader of the Xujie is a rare treasure." Qiao Xiaoxian glanced at it and said, "Let's go, it's not safe here anymore. And... we're being targeted."
The boundary between the village and the woods has been completely destroyed, and the Ruin Beast may spawn anywhere at any time, including behind Jiang Keer and other monsters.
Under the control of the leader of the Xujie, they will choose to descend into dark corners in a planned manner to catch the monsters off guard.
"Again!"
But at this moment, the leader of the Ruins Realm still did not give up. He crossed the realm again and stretched out a giant claw, aiming at Qiao Xiaoxian's back, as if he wanted to capture Qiao Xiaoxian into the Ruins Realm at all costs!
Jiang Ke'er didn't think twice and swung her sword again to meet the attack, and her sword landed on the same spot as Qiao Xiaoxian's heavy blow.
The huge beast broke another finger, leaving only three of its five fingers.
"You saved me again." Qiao Xiaoxian looked at Jiang Ke'er with a smile, seeming very happy.
"Don't think too much. We just need combat power right now and we can't let you die in vain," Jiang Ke'er pouted. "Let's go! It's almost too late!"
At the entrance of the shelter, the villagers had successfully hidden inside, leaving only Jiang Keer, Qiao Xiaoxian, Jie Shui and Ming Ling as the only ones who had not yet entered.
There was a small entrance to the shelter, and at the entrance Mu Guoguo and Changsun Qingyue were shouting at them to go in and hide together.
Space tunnels kept opening up on the road ahead, and beasts were squeezing out of the narrow tunnels, roaring wildly. They stared at the monsters with saliva dripping from their mouths, and gathered towards them greedily from all directions... like a rapidly rising tide.
"Follow closely!"
Qiao Xiaoxian waved her sleeves to clear the way, and Jiang Ke'er waved her sword to cover the rear.
Amidst the broken limbs, saliva and smelly blood, the monsters quickly approached the shelter.
Fortunately, Ming Ling quickly pulled Jie Shui forward and rushed into the shelter.
Qiao Xiaoxian was about to go in, but the space-time rift that opened again in front of her stood between the shelter and her, blocking her way.
...What's wrong with this leader of the Ruins Realm? Is he still targeting Qiao Xiaoxian?
The momentum of the attack this time was obviously much stronger than before, and one would be caught if one was not careful.
Qiao Xiaoxian remained calm and tried her best to deal with the situation calmly. She moved away at the first possible moment, leaving the giant claw empty.
Jiang Ke'er swung her sword and chopped it down, making a "ding" sound on her claws and causing a burst of sparks.
Then her pupils suddenly shrank, and the sense of crisis climbed up her scalp like an electric current, giving her goose bumps all over her body.
"Boom Ka——"
Under the illumination of lightning, the appearance of the Ruins World Commander was clearly visible - it was stretching out two hands, one hand was the giant hand with severed fingers in front of Jiang Ke'er and Qiao Xiaoxian, and the other hand...
Jiang Ke'er felt her waist tighten, and she had no time to exert any force with the sword in her hand.
The scenery around her changed rapidly, and her body was dragged into the ruins.
"Uh-"
When Qiao Xiaoxian realized that she had fallen into a trap, it was already too late. She howled in pain, and her sharp dragon claws burst out with a terrifying power far beyond the Three Talents Realm, slashing heavily at the palm of the Xujie Commander!
However, Jiang Ke'er had already been dragged into the Ruins Realm at this time. Even though this sharp slash cut off the palm of the Ruins Realm leader at the root, Jiang Ke'er could not come back.
The space tunnel was already too small for Jiang Ke'er to pass through, and Qiao Xiaoxian could only watch Jiang Ke'er's figure gradually disappear into the world.
The leader of the Ruins Realm had a cunning and treacherous smile on his face.
——The target was not Qiao Xiaoxian from the beginning.
Qiao Xiaoxian never figured out why the leader of this world wanted to attack her.
Now the truth is out, it was just a trick to divert attention... The ruler of the Ruins Realm is too cunning. From the very beginning, his target was Jiang Ke'er. He kept making one move to divert attention until the time was right, and then he would strike with all his strength!
The space tunnel had shrunk to the point where only a crack remained and even Jiang Keer's face could not be seen clearly.
Qiao Xiaoxian gritted his teeth, took out the Mingzhou Ding, and threw it into the crack with all his strength!
"Stupid fox, take the tripod!"
She didn't know whether Jiang Ke'er caught the Mingzhou Ding, but she had done everything she could.
The door of the shelter slowly closed, and Qiao Xiaoxian leaned against the wall with a pale face.
"Qingyi she..." Changsun Qingyue and other monsters looked at Qiao Xiaoxian entering the shelter alone. There was no trace of Jiang Ke'er beside her. They were all frozen on the spot.
Qiao Xiaoxian didn't say anything.
"She did this to cover our retreat..." Ming Ling covered her mouth.
The captain of the village guards heard what had happened and knelt down on the spot: "The three villages will never forget your kindness!"
"Noisy!"
Qiao Xiaoxian was in a bad mood. She didn't want to take it out on others, but she couldn't help the annoyance in her tone. She didn't want to hear any nonsense right now.
The gate of the shelter is a one-way transparent stone. You can see the outside from the inside, but you cannot see the inside from the outside.
"Boom Ka——"
Another flash of lightning flashed, and the situation in the ruins world became clear in an instant.
Qiao Xiaoxian opened her eyes wide, but could not see any trace of Jiang Ke'er. She only saw a swarm of beasts like a tide gathering in one direction, piling up into a small hill, covering everything in between.
Jiang Ke'er...is she still there?

64. Ruins
Fortunately, Qiao Xiaoxian cut off the arm of the Xu Beast Leader at the last moment, allowing her to break free and catch the Mingzhou Ding.
...But she doesn’t know how to use this tripod at all!
Jiang Ke'er was furious and tried hard to input her spiritual power into the Mingzhou Cauldron. However, no matter how anxious she was, the dark little cauldron did not react at all.
Surrounded by dense beasts, she had no time to study them, so she had to temporarily put the Mingzhou Ding into the inventory.
"Damn fox! I'll make you see with your own eyes that your people are eaten alive!"
Jiang Keer had just arrived in the ruins when she heard such a deafening roar.
She looked around and saw a huge black shadow standing in the distant sky under the blood-red sky, with two scarlet eyes looking at where Jiang Ke'er was.
He is not the leader of the Ruin Realm, but his strength is obviously far superior to that of the Ruin Beast Leader.
Jiang Ke'er originally thought that she was talking to herself, but it didn't seem right no matter how she thought about it - her own people? How could she have any people? The demon tribe?
Until she turned around and saw the nine tall towers behind her.
Nine towering towers were arranged in a circle, with a scarlet chain extending from the bottom of each tower. Where the chains converged - a gigantic, pure white fox was tied up there.
Jiang Ke'er's heart was beating wildly - fox demon? Wasn't it extinct? !
Seven huge white tails were floating behind her, but seven chains locked her tails tightly, and two chains locked her neck and abdomen, so that she was trapped between the nine giant towers and unable to move at all.
Her face showed a painful expression. She looked anxiously at where Jiang Ke'er was, and a clear female voice came out of her throat: "Run! Run away from here!"
It seemed that the voice was talking to her, and the tribesmen it mentioned were referring to Jiang Ke'er - he wanted to let the big fox watch with his own eyes how Jiang Ke'er was eaten alive. This was the purpose of why he had gone to so much trouble to capture Jiang Ke'er.
"Roar--"
The surrounding beasts were already in a frenzy during the blood moon, and after receiving the order from the unknown existence, they gathered towards Jiang Ke'er as if they were injected with chicken blood.
Jiang Ke'er ran as fast as she could, her scalp tingling with fear from the situation around her.
Looking around, there was not a single empty space on the vast ground. The beasts were stepping on each other's heads and gathering towards her. Jiang Ke'er couldn't imagine what would happen to her.
She naturally wanted to escape, but she didn't know how to escape from the world of ruins. She gritted her teeth and ran towards the direction of the big fox.
Fortunately, the ranks of these Xu beasts are not high, the highest is only level four. The Xu beasts of level five and higher are stuck farther away and cannot come over for the time being.
"Hahahaha, when all the ethnic groups in your Shenzhou abandoned us and left us to fight alone, what we faced was much more than just this?" The old male voice came again from a distance.
