The two master-disciple duo reached the small shed at the mountain peak as they did almost every day.
And as soon as they arrived, Lin Haoran Start preparing the wild boar.
And looking at his master who slept almost as soon as they reached the shed, Lin haoran was speechless.
Learning how to butcher was one of the most terrible decision Lin haoran had made to this day.
His master had become totally lazy.
However, Lin haoran did not mind much, as he had developed some enjoyment to cooking and roasting meat that comes after butchering.
And Perhaps it was because Lin haoran came from the modern world, he had a way better methods of preparing food , and his master also seemed to prefer the food he make.
As Lin haoran was preparing the wild boar, the sun also slowly set in the horizon.
A single dew of water came falling from the sky and it began raining.
Smelling the earthly smell and moist grass, Lin haoran felt his life was rather peaceful.
Totally different from the busy city life he had lived before..
However the beautiful calm was suddenly broken by an abrupt scream that came from nowhere.
Lin Haoran suddenly raised his head and look of surprise flash in his face.
His master whom he thought was sleeping also suddenly stood up and grab his sword, a look of surprise also flashes across his face.
The two quickly ran out of the shed.
On the horizon, two couple, a rather young looking man and a woman came running came running down the crater as if they had saw something terrible.
The young man had had terrible claw mark in his back as if slashed by a horrible creature, he was bleeding heavily.
The young woman condition was also not looking too good.
"Little Lu, what wrong" Chun Yijun said as he came forward.
The young man's name was Lu Fei, he was a villager from the few villages surrounding the mountain, he also often came to give blessings to the shrine and even Lin haoran recognize him.
However, at this moment Lu Fei came running and kneeled directly to Chun Yujin.
"My..My lord...my village was attacked..everyone..everyone died..even..even..." Lu Fei said as he cried.
"Little Lu..." Chun Yujin hurriedly walk to Lu Fei and tried to pick him up.
How as he walked, he noticed the large claw mark on Lu Fei's back.
"This..this is..." Chun yujin Frowned.
"Little Lu..tell me..tell me quickly who attacked your village!!" Chun Yujin said as he grab Lu Fei by the shoulder.
"My lord.. my lord it..was..." Lu fei seemed to stutter , however before he could respond, Chun Yujin turned his head as he felt a slight tugged on his robe.
It was his disciple Lin haoran, who was pointing his fingers towards the Rim of the crater.
All around the rim, were humanoid figures standing in silence.
"We're sorrounded" lin haoran said softly as he cautiously looked around and noticed something.
"Master they are..." Lin Haoran said in shock.
"Mhmm...they are the villagers" Chun Yujin said in a grave tone.
They were actually surrounded by the villagers!!
What was going on!!??? Lin haoran was puzzled!
"Or atleast they used to be..." Chun Yujin said in a grave tone.
They were indeed the villager however, they all had now one thing in common, eyes as red as blood and claws as long as a bear..
They had drools flowing down from their mouth making them looked like a craze wild beast!!
Chun Yujin looked towards his disciple and said in a serious manners.
"Haoran...kill them as if you don't know them" he said...
Lin Haoran stood in silence, as if seeming to understand something...
A loud thunder rang out as the two instantly disappear from their position.
They each charge towards the direction opposite from each other.
At the same time, the craze looking villager also ran down the craters.
A brutal battle then began!!!
Lin Haoran quickly dodge a claw from a middle age man, then from below he thrusted his sword through the throat which pierce through and came out from the tip of his head.
This was Lin haoran first time killing another human, the feeling of the sword cutting through, flesh and the hardness of a bone...he felt it all..
However fortunately or unfortunately the world did not give him too much time to ponder about it.
He was on a battle field, it was killed or be killed especially since he did not want to reveal his cards in front of his master, he had to concentrate.
Lin haoran then jumped up, to dodge another claw strike from behind, he stood on top of the head of the middle age man he had just pierce and slash at the attacker as he pulled his sword out from the throat of the middle age man.
He then jumped down and started slashing in every direction he went, blood slurped in every direction and mixing with the rain the entire ground was bright red.
The same goes for the other side of the battle field when chun Yujin was fighting, head were flown in the sky left and right.
Although the villagers were alot stronger than normal human, they were still in the end untrained and uncoordinate, coupled with their strange state they were even more easy to kill than normal people..
And soon after almost any hour of brutal killing, the fight came to an end.
Lin haoran was exhausted!! He entire body was soaked in blood, of course they were not his blood.
His master also didn't look too good, after all although whom he had just killed were very weak to him, they were still the villagers whom he known for a very long time, so it leaves a dozen of phycological weight on to him.
"Now perhaps the only surviving villagers are Lu fei and his wife" Lin haoran said as he look towards the two.
Lu Fei's wife sat there crying, and Lu Fei himself stood in silent.
The cloud in the sky as if to pity them slowly parted and sunlight fell on them.
However, as soon as the sun ray hit them, Lin haoran was stunned.
Different thought raced through his head and a single word resounded in his mind
"Ghosts..?" He questioned.
Suddenly his expression turned from being stunned to shock.
"MAS...TER" He hurriedly shouted.
However, it happened very fast, from behind as if a dark winds had blown.
