The next morning, as the sky dawned, a cold wind unique to early mornings blew, waking up Ao Fan in the lobby.
He came back to his senses from his cultivation and opened his eyes to look around, remembering once again that now he was no longer in the Dragon Domain where the seasons were like spring and there was no cold or heat. In the outside world, the weather that should be there was never lacking, and he would experience it one by one. This was the red dust, this was the world.
Ao Fan gently exhaled and stood up. At the same time, Yun Drunken Moon and Bu Jing Xin also finished their cultivation and stood up.
Ao Fan looked towards Yun Drunken Moon, she let out a light smile, causing Bu Jing Xin to be a bit out of focus while putting on that white veil, covering her moving face.
"The hour has come, so let's go and meet that mysterious demonic beast." Yun Drunken Moon took the lead and said.
Ao Fan and Bu Jing Xin nodded and walked out of the lobby at the same time. Afterwards, Yun Drunken Moon and Bu Jing Xin summoned dozens of Mortal Realm cultivators, some of them were disciples of the Nine Swords Sect, while others were disciples of small sects affiliated with the Nine Swords Sect.
When the number of people arrived, all of them walked out of the compound in a great manner!
With so many cultivators walking together, the scene was extremely spectacular, causing the mortals in the city to stop and watch, with undisguised admiration in their eyes. Fortunately, the distance between the residence and the city gates was not far, so the crowd walked out in a short while. Otherwise, the mortals who came to watch were bound to fill the roads.
Walking out of the city, a different kind of fresh air came from the city, which was refreshing to smell. Countless green grass and trees were growing, birds and beasts were chirping endlessly, and spring was in full bloom between heaven and earth.
The people of Cloud City basically knew that there was a man-eating demonic beast on the mountain road outside the western part of the city, so they didn't follow Ao Fan and his team after they walked out of the city, and just watched them leave from afar.
On the mountain road, the wind and sunshine, Yun Drunken Moon was at the forefront leading the way, Bu Jingxin was talking to those Mortal Realm disciples, while Ao Fan walked silently, and in a short while, he arrived at the mountainside.
Looking ahead, one could only see grasses and trees and piles of rocks. And further back, a steep peak towered over it, blocking the way forward, and above the peak there was a clear stream of waterfalls rolling down, forming a small pool of water under the peak.
If Yun Drunken Moon was right, this small water pool was the location of that mysterious demonic beast!
The group raised their spirits and walked under the waterfall, looking at the small water pool.
The water pool was turbid, with all the churned up sand and stones in it, and there were absolutely no fish that could survive. As Ao Fan and the others reached the edge of the water pool, a vortex was suddenly created on the surface of the water pool, and endless sand and stones were stirred up and splashed towards the people at the edge of the pool.
"Buzz!" In a light trembling sound, the foremost Yun Drunken Moon's prime hand probed forward, only to see a flash of blue light, a short turquoise-blue sword appeared in her hand, a foot long, with a mist surrounding the sword, no wonder their lineage would be called the Cloud Sword.
Because of its small size, this short sword was usually inside Yun Drunken Moon's sleeve. Seeing this, Ao Fan suddenly realised, no wonder the disciples of the Nine Swords Sect all carried long swords on their backs, and she was the only one with empty hands.
In Yun Drunken Moon's hand, the short sword was like a spirit, spinning with great flexibility, and the heaven and earth Yuan Qi was attracted to form a barrier, blocking the soil splash.
"Elder sister is a good fighter." Bu Jingxin praised, at the same time, he drew the long sword behind him, facing the water pool, waiting in a strict stance.
The whirlpool within the water pool gradually stopped, and a dark gas penetrated out of it, rapidly spreading to the shore, even the barrier Yun Drunken Moon had just laid down was unable to withstand it, and it shattered in pieces as if it was being eroded.
"Everyone be careful." Bu Jingxin shouted out, and had already made a move himself.
He pointed his sword at the black smoke, in which a tremor rose for no apparent reason, then his body was like a meteor, rushing towards the black smoke with his sword whistling, brushing and slashing a few swords outside the black smoke, and several sword qi flew into the black smoke in this way.
The crowd didn't slacken off, they cast their own attacks, blasting down on the black smoke all over the place. Only Ao Fan had yet to make a move, as he carefully watched the situation.
Yun Drunken Moon's short sword lightly spun, her body following the sword, dancing for a week with an extremely graceful posture. Immediately, the short sword's blue light flourished, and under Yun Drunken Moon's control, it probed into the black smoke.
At that moment, the black smoke seemed to have met some kind of nemesis, and even quickly melted away like a flame in contact with water, and in a few breaths, not a single wisp could be seen anymore. At the same time, the mysterious demonic beast that was hidden in the back also revealed itself.
That is a giant snake!
Snake body coiled around the pool, difficult to see its length, can only see the black scales, hard and difficult to hurt. Its head was hideous, its eyes were glowing red as it faced Ao Fan and his party, and its forked tongue kept spitting out, its terrifying appearance scaring off quite a few people of the Mortal Realm.
"So it's a demon snake." Bu Jing Xin muttered to himself and charged again with his sword.
Yun Drunken Moon was also undaunted, waving her short sword and attacking the demon snake.
Seeing this, Ao Fan finally stopped standing idly by. He soared up, his body was like lightning, quickly rushed to the top of the demon snake's head, and slapped down with a heavy palm, whose might was like a mountain collapsing, causing the demon snake's attention to be attracted at once.
The Demon Snake first avoided the attacks of Yun Drunken Moon and Bu Jing Xin, then turned his head to look at Ao Fan, his coiled body violently stretched out, approaching Ao Fan, at the same time, his huge mouth opened wide, and a stream of black mist instantly spewed out, corrupting the air to the point that it produced a strange sound.
"Be careful!" Yun Drunken Moon exclaimed.
"No harm done." Ao Fan smiled casually, and the Blood Sea Style was executed on the spot.
With him as the centre, an invisible vortex immediately appeared within ten feet around him, possessing an extremely powerful pulling force, which even dissolved the black mist spewed out by the demonic snake, and even temporarily fixed the demonic snake, unable to move.
Ao Fan's attack didn't stop while the Blood Sea Style was being executed. Therefore, after the demon snake was pulled by the blood sea style, the fierce attack was immediately bombarded by Ao Fan on the top of the demon snake's head, the strong palm force penetrated down, making the demon snake instantly spray a large mouth of blood, hissing down in pain.
Blood Slaughter Style!
Ao Fan's eyes bloomed with cold aura, did not stop, one hand empty chop, a blood blade immediately through the palm and out, turned into a flash of red light, between the snap of fingers will cut in the head of the demon snake. In the next instant, the hissing of the demon snake stopped, the head was separated, blood splattered, fell down.
Ao Fan landed on the ground at the same time, everything behaving in that breezy manner.
When the rest of the people saw this, they were all incomparably surprised, and in the bottom of their hearts, they also admired Ao Fan very much. Cloud drunken moon and step surprised more, step surprised heart but appreciate the power of the demon snake, self-confessed is not a rival, but did not think that such a powerful demon snake was Ao Fan urged to pull the coquettishly killed, does not appear to be a little bit of effort.
Cloud drunken moon originally although not seen the demon snake, but also heard the step alarm heart said powerful, and just now exchanged hands, she also understands that their own one person may not be able to win the demon snake, not to mention is so easy to kill.
"So we all underestimated you." Yun Drunken Moon laughed softly as she came and said, "This time, thanks to you for helping us kill the demonic snake, otherwise with the strength of the demonic snake, even if we can defeat it, we will still die and injure quite a number of people, which will be like this moment without a single casualty."
"It's just a labour of love." Ao Fan said indifferently, and then asked, "What is your itinerary next?"
Yun Drunken Moon said quietly, "We only have this one mission this time out, and since the demonic snake has been killed, we naturally have to go back. I wonder what action you have in mind?"
"How could I have any actions, I am just an idle person, travelling with the wind and following the waves." Ao Fan laughed bitterly.
Yun Drunken Moon's eyes lit up and said, "In that case, why don't you travel with us, and you can take care of each other along the way."
"That's very good." Ao Fan nodded in agreement. His purpose was to blend in with the Nine Swords Sect's group, so naturally, he would not leave easily.
