Leading hundreds of townspeople, Wang Chen joined up with Zhang Dahuhu and others who were waiting outside the town.
The townspeople, who had followed Wang Chen and then returned, had been anxiously waiting, fearing that Wang Chen wouldn't be able to defeat the Evil Wraith and that the town would fall.
If that happened, they would have lost their protector deity.
Contrary to their expectations, Wang Chen had ended the battle so quickly and even brought back so many people.
Seeing one familiar face after another, many people wept with joy.
A townsman cautiously asked, "Immortal Master, will the Evil Wraith come again?"
All his worldly possessions were in the town—his home, Spirit Fields, and his shop; these were things he couldn't take with him.
If the Evil Wraith had been completely eradicated.
Then he really didn't want to leave.
And the thoughts of this townsman were shared by many others.
Everyone looked at Wang Chen with hopeful eyes.
