The villagers looked at Bai Haqi, Chi Jin, and Mu Feng, who was tied up with iron chains and his mouth was sealed, with suspicious expressions. They felt strange.
"Are you from the Bai family?"
Bai Hao nodded quickly: "My name is Bai Hao, but I left Penglai Island a long time ago."
The villager sighed and said: "Oh, there is no Bai family on the island anymore. You came back too late. Come in and talk."
He dodged and let them enter the house. The people here seemed to have a good impression of the Bai family.
Chi Jin frowned. This island is very huge. It is not a problem to house tens of thousands of people. The Bai family used to be the Penglai King of this island, so they must have a big business.
The villagers stared at Mu Feng behind Chi Jin. The more they looked, the more frightened they became. The dark lines on his body, the red eyes and the ferocious face made him look like a devil.
Chi Jin noticed the gazes of the villagers and quickly put Mu Feng down and said, "Don't worry, my junior brother is only like this temporarily and will recover soon."
The villager shook his head and said, "No, I just saw that your junior brother is very similar to the legendary 'Heavenly Demon' on Penglai Island."
Bai Haqi was stunned: "Heavenly Demon?
What is going on, and what happened on the island?"
"All this is because of the devil!"
An old man suddenly walked in. His body was hunched and he was leaning on a cane. He actually had the cultivation level of the eighth level of Nirvana.
"Village chief, why are you here?"
The villagers stood up quickly and stepped forward to support the old man.
After the old man entered the room, he looked at Bai Haqi. His cloudy eyes were filled with disbelief, and then he burst into tears.
"Princess, it's really you, you're back!"
With a pop, the old man knelt on the ground, looking sad and angry.
Bai Haqi didn't remember this old man, but he hurried forward and helped the old man up: "Old man, have you seen me?"
The old man nodded, wiped his tears and said: "When King Penglai took the princess on a tour, I was lucky enough to see the princess once. I didn't expect that after so many years, the princess would still look like this."
Eight hundred years, it seems like a long time has passed.
Bai Haqi was a little distracted. It turned out that she had left Penglai Immortal Island for hundreds of years.
"Bai Yuan...Bai Haqi, yes, I remembered, the former King of Penglai was named Bai Yuan!"
The villagers started shouting and felt a little rude, so they quickly stood aside.
"Then what's going on on Penglai Immortal Island now?
Who is running this place?"
Bai Haqi asked quickly.
When the old man mentioned this matter, he looked extremely sad, and at the same time there was deep anger in his eyes.
"This matter should start from eight hundred years ago."
It turns out that the Penglai Island was really a paradise on earth, with extremely rich resources and not many people on the island, so it was very wealthy.
Some people long for the freedom outside the island, but after leaving, no one can ever come back, not only because of the three-layer protection outside Penglai Island, but also because Penglai Island does not seem to want people to find it.
Until eight hundred years ago, when someone left, he took away a piece of ink stone from Penglai Fairy Mountain. Through the ink stone, he returned here with a group of friends.
This is the first time there are outsiders on the island. The villagers on the island are very enthusiastic, treat these outsiders very well, and even invite them to live on the island.
After living for about half a year, these outsiders were very dissatisfied. They envied the rich cultivation resources on Penglai Immortal Mountain and wanted to take it for themselves, so they secretly went up the mountain.
No one knows what happened after they went up the mountain, but after they came down, they seemed to have changed, with dark lines on their bodies and scarlet eyes like demons.
These people were called heavenly demons! After saying this, the old man saw Mu Feng bound by iron chains and jumped up in shock: "Heavenly... heavenly demons!"
Chi Jin was startled and subconsciously protected Mu Feng behind him: "Mr., please make no mistake. This is my junior brother. He is not a demon. He is just feeling a little uncomfortable temporarily."
But the father-in-law's eyes were full of horror: "I won't admit my mistake. The devil is like this. I have seen it with my own eyes!"
Even though Mu Feng was bound by iron chains and had layers of seals on his body, the old man was still frightened and subconsciously stayed away.
Bai Haqi thought carefully and suddenly said: "I remember that when my father took me up the mountain, he told me that there was a forbidden area on the mountain that no one was allowed to enter. Could it be that outsiders entered the forbidden area?"
Chi Jin suddenly figured out the matter at this time and hurriedly said: "My junior brother has a sealed object in his hand. It is a very dangerous thing. He used that sealed object to become what he is today."
"Perhaps, there was a seal on Penglai Immortal Mountain before, and there was also such a sealed object in the seal. Those people used the sealed object to become...the devil!"
"So that's it," Bai Haqi was a little lost. "I didn't know anything at the beginning. I only knew that my father sealed me in the black crystal and asked me to leave Penglai Immortal Island and never come back again."
The village chief was also very emotional, shook his head and sighed: "No matter what the truth is, it doesn't matter anymore. Since then, Penglai Island has undergone earth-shaking changes."
The appearance of the demons plunged Penglai Island into dire straits. They killed people at will and drained people's essence. Even the King of Penglai died in the hands of the demons in order to protect the people on the island! Bai Haqi's tears instantly blurred.
She opened her eyes. Although she had made some guesses before, she was still extremely sad after hearing the news of her father's death.
The demons killed King Penglai, drained all the powerful people on the island, then took control of the island, collected all the resources on the island, and then one demon left here.
"The one who left this island was the Heavenly Demon King. He looked just like your junior brother. The remaining Heavenly Demons all looked normal, so they stayed here."
"Because all the resources were taken away, Penglai Island suffered devastating damage, leaving only very few resources on the island. The remaining demons stayed here, and they called themselves 'Priests'
!”
"The people on the island have been living in dire straits since then. In addition to making offerings, the 'priests' also kill people for fun, and impose severe punishments on those who escape."
The village chief still had deep fear in his eyes.
Only then did Shiraha and Akane understand why the people in the village looked lifeless, like zombies. It turned out to be this reason.
Chi Jin said angrily: "Don't any of you stand up and resist?"
The village chief sighed deeply: "At the beginning, all the strong men on the island were swallowed up by the Demon King, and the rest like us are no match for the priests at all.
Some of the stronger ones were threatened by the priests with the lives of their relatives and became their divine envoys."
Bai Hao was filled with grief, not only because of the death of his father, but also because of the current tragic situation of Penglai Island. The original paradise has now become a purgatory! "I will definitely help you and drive out those so-called priests."
Island!”
Chi Jin said coldly: "It's not enough to drive them out. Killing them will do. Don't worry, I, Chi Jin, can't stand this kind of thing. I'll take care of this!"
The village chief hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Thank you for your kindness. I can feel that you are very powerful, but the priests are stronger. They have all been helped by the Demon King and have become stronger. You are no match for them."
"Princess, it's great to see you again. Please leave quickly before they find out."
Bai Hao wiped away her tears and her eyes gradually became firm. She wanted to protect the island left by her father! "It may be too late. Since they control the island, they must have controlled the formation outside the island. When we passed
, they must have noticed something."
"So, the war has begun."
Chi Jin also stood up and patted Bai Haqi on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you, but do you have to save my junior brother first? If my junior brother returns to normal, these damn priests will definitely not be opponents!"
Bai Ha also understood this, he had seen Mu Feng's power with his own eyes.
"Old man, do you know where the fairy mountain is?"
The village chief frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "I remember that King Penglai said back then that the Immortal Mountain could restrain the Heavenly Demon, so the first thing the Heavenly Demon did when he came down from the mountain was to crush the Immortal Stone."
"However, I know that someone is collecting fragments of fairy stones, and I don't know if they have succeeded."
Chi Jin's eyes had dimmed at first, but after hearing these words, his hope was rekindled.
"Where are these people? Take us there quickly!"
The village chief nodded and said, "Little girl, there is actually a group of people on the island who have never stopped fighting."
"I know there is someone who can come and pick you up as long as he is willing to resist!"
On the other side, a middle-aged man walked slowly on the beach and discovered Shirahagi's palace on the shore.
"This is..." The man touched the palace and was stunned for a moment, with some emotion in his cold eyes.
"How many years have passed and I'm finally back."
After saying that, he walked towards the nearest village.
When they arrived at the village where Bai Haqi and the others were, the man stood at the entrance of the village and coughed heavily: "Where are the people in the village?"
Hearing this, the villagers all walked out of the house one after another.
The village chief looked a little panicked in the room and whispered: "You hide in the room and don't go out, this is an envoy of God!"
After saying that, he hurriedly left the room.
Chi Jin and Shiraha looked a little solemn. They didn't expect to meet the divine messenger so soon. Now that they were just two people, it was really difficult to do anything, so they waited in the room with worry.
The village chief walked out of the room and looked at the angel, a smile appearing in his old and cloudy eyes.
"Wang Liang."
"Yin Qian."
The angel and the village chief hugged each other like old friends.
Chi Jin's face in the room changed: "That's bad, they are in the same group!"
