"Let's first check out the nearby villages and see what's happening. If they're all in this situation, then we must find a way to deal with it; we absolutely can't let these beasts run rampant."
Although Tianxiong City is nearby, there are also many villages around. Wang Zhan noticed that this area seems much more prosperous compared to the fifth war zone. However, looking at the bodies on the ground, it appears there should be quite a number of people in the villages too.
With this thought, Wang Zhan's expression changed again; he then spoke in a deep voice: "Do as I say, and both of you must be careful. If you hear anything, notify
imdiately; do not take any action on your own."
Xiang Tian shrugged helplessly, "Relax, I'm not a child."
Luo Xue obediently nodded her head.
Wang Zhan ignored them. After grabbing Han Xue's arm, he headed into the distance.
Neither Xiang Tian nor Luo Xue has the ability to protect Han Xue due to their strength, so of course, he needs to keep this burden beside him.
After they split up, Wang Zhan took Han Xue toward the distance because he noticed there were still signs of fire nearby, indicating the presence of beasts.
Of course, according to Han Xue, there should be many villages around here. If the beasts truly wish to destroy all the nearby villages, Wang Zhan cannot stand idly by.
"Brother Wang, where are we headed? Are we really going to confront those beasts head-on?"
Han Xue appeared scared, her eyes shifting, evidently considering beasts as terrifying creatures in her mind. Encountering them naturally requires hiding, who dares to provoke them?
Wang Zhan, while observing the surroundings, said: "We must eliminate them to prevent further harm to the people nearby."
"But, aren't you worried about not being able to deal with those beasts, Brother Wang?"
Han Xue looked timidly at Wang Zhan.
Wang Zhan shrugged nonchalantly, laughing: "They're just useless demonic beasts; they can only bully you ordinary people. Trying to confront
is simply dreaming."
Wang Zhan regained his full confidence.
"Can I ask you for a favor?"
Wang Zhan curiously asked, "Let's hear it; what do you want
to help with?"
"I know you're busy, Brother Wang, so I naturally wouldn't dare trouble you. But I want to beco as strong as you, would you be willing to teach
so self-defense techniques?"
Han Xue looked at Wang Zhan with full admiration, "Of course, if you don't mind, Brother Wang, perhaps you could even make
as strong as Sister Xue, enhance my cultivation, and then protect those I wish to protect."
"Even if Brother Wang isn't around, I'd be able to protect my family."
Talking about family, Han Xue's expression darkened, considering the uncertainty of their safety and the destruction of the village without any survivors pointing to the likelihood of ill fate.
Boss Wang noticed her gaze, then patted Han Xue's shoulder and said with a smile: "Of course, I can help you, but you must listen carefully and not act on impulse. Believe , your parents are surely hiding sowhere, quietly waiting for your return."
"Really?"
Han Xue's eyes widened, and she imdiately hugged Wang Zhan's leg, "Please don't lie to , Brother Wang."
Wang Zhan hesitated for a mont but finally nodded. Even if it's a lie, it's a kind one; he didn't want to see Han Xue like this.
After a while, they didn't hear Xiang Tian and Luo Xue, but Wang Zhan wasn't worried. Although the village was destroyed, the beasts weren't particularly strong. The bodies bear multiple injuries, indicating most likely they were just ordinary beasts.
The villages are inhabited by ordinary people, so even when facing an average beast, they might not be their match. But Xiang Tian and Luo Xue with their cultivation can defend themselves, so there's no need to worry.
Soon, Wang Zhan and Han Xue reached a place where everything gradually beca clear; indeed, there was fire. Evidently, this is similar to the village they encountered before, likely another village set ablaze.
Wang Zhan took Han Xue to the side of the village and noticed the bodies within, presumably it had been attacked by beasts, and Han Xue's expression beca even more unpleasant.
Han Xue quickly covered her eyes, afraid to continue looking, for seeing this scene reminds her of her parents and clan mbers in the village.
Wang Zhan didn't linger long, seeing as there likely wouldn't be any survivors. However, as he prepared to leave with Han Xue, his ear twitched upon hearing sothing, his gaze turned sharply left and grew cold.
He swiftly picked up Han Xue and rushed toward the left direction.
A few minutes later, a glance revealed a number of beasts, currently attacking a few people not far away.
"There are actually people here?"
Han Xue spoke excitedly.
This, then, proves that it is indeed possible his parents are hiding sowhere, never having appeared.
"Brother Wang really didn't deceive ."
Han Xue clenched his small fist, glancing at Wang Zhan beside him.
However, Wang Zhan's gaze remained fixed on those beasts. With just a glance, Wang Zhan could already see that their strength amounted to nothing more than so ordinary beasts, pathetically weak, he could deal with them in an instant.
But as soon as Han Xue spoke, several beasts noticed the direction of Wang Zhan, and one of the beasts quickly rushed towards Wang Zhan.
Han Xue's face suddenly beca much more unsightly. He instinctively covered his eyes but didn't hear any sound, nor did he feel Wang Zhan move.
"Could it be..."
Han Xue slowly moved his hand away from his eyes, glanced at Wang Zhan standing beside him, and was suddenly stunned as one of the beasts not far away was already lying in a bloody puddle.
"Brother Wang, was that you?"
Han Xue quietly asked, pointing to the beast not far away.
Wang Zhan smiled and said, "I told you earlier these are just a bunch of insignificant guys."
The next second, Wang Zhan suddenly sprang up and quickly rushed towards the distant beasts.
In an instant, Wang Zhan was already in front of those beasts. The beasts had not even reacted when a blaze of fire descended, and they imdiately turned into scattered shadows.
anwhile, a few people who had long been scared dumb gradually raised their heads, their gazes all falling on Wang Zhan.
"Are you villagers from around here?"
Wang Zhan glanced at them and imdiately noticed they were all people with no cultivation.
"Yes, yes, yes."
One relatively calm man slowly stood up, nodding repeatedly towards Wang Zhan, and explained, "We were chased all the way here by these beasts, and had it not been for eting you, we would probably have perished in the Netherworld by now."
"Are these all the people left from the villages?"
Along the way, all the nearby villages had beco a sea of fire. Thinking of this, Wang Zhan's face turned much more unsightly. All of this was because of these damned beasts. Truly, these filthy creatures shouldn't exist on the Star War Battlefield.
The man lowered his head for a while, then frowned and said, "Actually, there are many survivors, but now they've all gone to comparatively safer places. We were on our way when, unexpectedly, we encountered beasts."
"Survivors?"
Wang Zhan glanced at Han Xue beside him, imdiately rembering his parents and relatives, hurriedly asked, "Take
to see your hiding place right away."
"This..."
The man imdiately looked troubled and quietly said, "Sir, it's not that I don't trust you, especially since you just saved our lives, but that place is extrely important. We don't dare to take you there lightly, or I worry the person in charge might even kick
out, and then we really wouldn't know what to do."
Currently, all the villages have been destroyed, making them holess. Thus, the refuge is the only place they can stay.
Wang Zhan calmly said, "Don't bla
for not warning you. Even if your refuge is quite safe, how long can you truly hide there if none of you have cultivation? It's better to take
in, as it gives you an added asure of security."
Though Wang Zhan was sowhat angry, he didn't lose his temper with them, understanding that it's reasonable under the circumstances. The situation is tense, requiring caution in everything.
The man hesitated for a while, then heavily nodded, "Alright then, sir, seeing that you saved my life, I'll take you to the refuge. However, if they don't let you in, I hope you won't take offense."
