Liangbao's eyes widened and he looked at the figure appearing in front of him. He thought of some possibility and felt incredible.
When the figure got closer, he finally saw him clearly.
"Brother Zichen, sister Shanya!"
His excited voice made the Kata village, which had fallen into silence, feel more alive.
The old man's body was also trembling. He saw Zi Chen carrying Shan Ya on his back.
And behind it, there is a huge black shadow. What is it if it is not the soul-eating beast they are most familiar with?
"The legend is true!"
The old man was extremely excited.
Shanya rescued Zi Chen, and he was willing to believe in Zi Chen, and even provided Zi Chen with the Life Soul Fruit for free, just because of the legend about the Adventer.
"They're back, they're back!"
Liangbao's high-pitched voice sounded, and he ran forward excitedly.
The quiet village, which can even be said to be a desperate village, seems to have ushered in the dawn.
Everyone walked out of their homes and ran towards the entrance of the village.
Liangbao ran towards Zichen, crying as he ran.
Zi Chen was carrying Shan Ya on his back and holding the Soul-eating Beast behind him. After seeing Liang Bao, he smiled and said, "Shouldn't you be happy to see your sister Shan Ya back? Why are you crying?"
Liangbao immediately wiped away the tears on his face and nodded repeatedly, "Well, I'm happy, happy."
Shan Ya also smiled lightly. If Zi Chen hadn't been carrying him, they would have spent the night in the forest.
"Let's go."
Zi Chen walked forward, and then Liang Bao saw the soul-eating beast behind him.
Although this was not the first time he saw it, this time he was excited because no one would have to die.
Zi Chen walked to the entrance of the village and saw the villagers standing at the door with mixed emotions.
As his eyes swept over them, Zi Chen's expression changed slightly.
Shanya, who was still on Zi Chen's back, looked at the villagers and asked doubtfully: "Where are the others? Did they go out to look for me and haven't come back yet? It's so late and it would be dangerous for them to stay outside.
What about Han Rui, he hasn’t come back either?”
Everyone lowered their heads, and some began to cry.
Zi Chen said: "Go back and rest first. The soul-eating beast will be dealt with tomorrow."
Shanya, who was very happy when he saw the villagers again, also lowered his head and his mood suddenly became depressed.
Being smart, she guessed what happened through everyone's expressions and Zi Chen's words.
Zi Chen carried Shan Ya to the room, and after settling her down, turned around and left.
Walking out of Shanya's residence, Zi Chen saw all the villagers in front of him.
He smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone, the mountain pass will recover soon, and there will be no serious problems."
"Zi Chen, I really want to thank you this time."
The old man stood in front, tremblingly wanting to salute Zi Chen.
Zi Chen hurriedly stepped forward and supported the old man, "Old man, this can't be done. If it weren't for Shanya, I would have died a long time ago. This is what I should do."
Plop!
Behind them, all the other villagers were kneeling on the ground.
Zi Chen, who was supporting the old man, said quickly: "Everyone, what are you doing? Get up quickly."
"You saved the lives of all of us in Kata Village!" the old man said, "You deserve this worship!"
On this day, Kata Village, which was about to be destroyed, ushered in new hope.
Zi Chen returned to the room, filled with emotions.
The moment he saw the number of villagers plummeting, he already understood what had happened.
All the young people left, without even their families. Of course, they were not looking for mountains, but looking for a way to survive.
This is reality.
But he couldn't blame those people, because they also wanted to survive.
Putting aside distracting thoughts, Zi Chen began to practice.
No matter which world you are in, strength is the foundation of everything!
The ghost soul-eating method absorbs the power of souls around it, and after entering the body, it is transformed into soul power.
His originally weak soul power was growing stronger.
The first ray of morning light entered Kata Village, and the whole village seemed to wake up again, full of light.
Zi Chen opened his eyes. After one night of practice, he gained a lot.
At this moment, his stomach made a growling sound, and he felt a long-lost hunger.
This feeling is not about eating food, but about swallowing the Life Soul Fruit.
"Sure enough, after being recognized by this world, you must abide by the rules of this world."
Zi Chen shook his head, not too surprised.
Yesterday he hunted a soul-eating beast, and today he could exchange it for the Life Soul Fruit.
He walked out of the room, and the sun shone warmly on his face.
The children got up early, played around the Soul-Eating Beast, and became happy again.
Other villagers, after experiencing yesterday's despair, are in a good mood today.
With the Life Soul Fruit, they will have a future.
Most of Shanya's injuries have recovered, and his movements are no longer seriously affected.
After Zi Chen left yesterday, the old man came to her room and told her the current situation in Kata Village.
For this reason, she was sad for a long time.
The old man told me that this is actually a good thing for Kata Village.
There is no need to keep supporting those white-eyed wolves for free, and the children are still there. They are the real future of Kata Village.
Shan Ya got up early in the morning. There was no Life Soul Fruit in the village, so she had to exchange some.
Under the watch of all the villagers, Zi Chen carried the soul-eating beast and left Kata Village under the leadership of Shan Ya.
"The closest tribe to us with the Divine Soul Mill is the Noah tribe, which is a hundred miles away. We have to speed up."
After leaving Kata Village, Shan Ya said: "And we have to be careful along the way. People from some villages specialize in robbing soul-eating beasts on various roads. When we went there before, we always went together as four people."
For the original Zi Chen, the hundreds of miles of road could be reached almost instantly.
But here, his soul power is limited and he has no ability to fly. He can only carry the Soul-Eating Beast and walk slowly.
…
…
A hunting team of ten people is preparing to go deep into the forest to hunt the soul-eating beast.
"Chief, something has been discovered."
A group of people were about to enter the forest when they suddenly heard a voice coming from behind.
A man came quickly and said loudly: "The people who discovered Kata Village are taking the soul-eating beast to prepare for the Noah tribe."
The middle-aged leader was startled when he heard the sound, turned around and said, "Kata Village?"
"Yes." The person nodded quickly.
"It's impossible. There's not even a soul hunter in Kata Village. How can there be a soul-eating beast? Are you dazzled?"
One of the people in the team said that he was none other than Han Rui from Kata Village, and he had now joined the Iza Village.
Fern and Clark also looked shocked.
"There is definitely nothing wrong. One is Shanya, and the other one is unknown and dressed strangely. He is responsible for carrying the Soul-Eating Beast." The visitor said.
"What?"
Han Rui exclaimed again, "Shanya is not dead?"
Fern and Clark also looked at each other, and both saw joy in each other's eyes.
The person carrying the Soul-Eating Beast must be Zi Chen.
He really saved Shanya.
The leader was a little surprised, then he glanced at the three of them and said, "Han Rui, it's time for you to show off."
"What do you mean?" Han Rui was stunned when he heard the sound.
"It's time to test your loyalty. Go and bring back the Soul-Eating Beast."
The leader said indifferently: "If Shanya is still unwilling to join us, then bring her head back!"
