Chapter 429 Underground Village?
The flesh on the demon corpse was already rotten, emitting a pungent stench, and its eyes emitted a strange green light, as if locking onto them, and approaching step by step.
A cold light flashed in Chen Yile's eyes. He raised the Tianshi Sword in his hand, the blade gleaming with cold light. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said calmly: "Feihong, you take a rest first. I'll take care of this guy."
Lin Feihong sat down on the ground exhausted, panting and saying, "I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. This demon corpse is really a problem."
Lin Qingyao patted his shoulder gently, handed him a bottle of water, and comforted him: "Drink some water first and take a rest. Leave the rest of the battle to us."
Chen Yile gripped the Heavenly Master Sword tightly and approached the demon corpse with light steps, his eyes cold and his expression focused.
He raised his hand and swung the sword. The sword energy drew a sharp arc in the air and slashed directly at the demon corpse.
The demon corpse seemed to sense danger and let out a sudden roar. It suddenly raised its skinny arms to block Chen Yile's sword energy.
The sword energy struck its rotten arm with a "crack" sound, and black rotten flesh splattered everywhere, but the demon corpse did not retreat at all. The green light in its eyes became stronger, and it continued to pounce on Chen Yile with a ferocious look.
Chen Yile frowned, thinking to himself that this demon corpse was indeed difficult to deal with.
He flashed and quickly retreated, while at the same time he pinched his left hand and a fire spell appeared in his hand. A raging fire swept towards the demon corpse, instantly surrounding it in flames.
The firelight illuminated the rotten body of the demon corpse. It let out a shrill scream, its body burned by the flames, and its flesh gradually turned black.
However, the demon corpse did not seem to be completely defeated by the flames. Instead, it struggled to rush out of the flames, and the green light in its eyes became even more evil.
"This guy is really tenacious." Chen Yile said coldly, gripping the Tianshi Sword tightly, ready to continue the attack.
At this time, Lin Qingyao also drew out the Qingfu Sword, stood beside Chen Yile, and said with a firm look: "Yile, I'll help you."
Chen Yile glanced at her, nodded, and said, "Be careful, this demon corpse is much more powerful than ordinary ghosts."
The two cooperated tacitly. Lin Qingyao waved the Qingfu Sword, and a faint blue light wrapped around the sword edge.
Runes flashed in the air, she concentrated her sword energy on the blade and stabbed it fiercely into the chest of the demon corpse.
The demon corpse reacted extremely quickly, twisting its body to avoid the sword and raising its claws to grab Lin Qingyao.
Seeing this, Chen Yile quickly held his sword to block the demon corpse's claw attack, and the two of them worked together to force it back a few steps.
"Qingyao, do it again!" Chen Yile said in a deep voice, with a determined murderous intent in his eyes.
Lin Qingyao nodded, raised the Qingfu Sword again, and attacked the demon corpse together with Chen Yile.
Chen Yile used the Tianshi Sword to attract the attention of the demon corpse, while Lin Qingyao found the right moment and suddenly stabbed the Qingfu Sword into the demon corpse's heart.
The demon corpse let out a heart-wrenching scream, its rotting flesh gradually falling off, and its green eyes gradually dimmed. Finally, its body turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated into the air.
The two of them breathed slightly and looked at each other, their eyes full of tacit understanding and trust.
Lin Feihong finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "It's finally resolved! I thought I was really going to die here this time."
Chen Yile smiled, put away the Heavenly Master Sword, patted Lin Feihong's shoulder gently, and said, "Don't worry, we are here and nothing will happen to you."
Lin Feihong finally caught his breath and couldn't help asking, "Where did you two go last night? I looked for you for a long time but couldn't find any trace of you."
Chen Yile smiled helplessly, dusted himself off, and explained, "I just fell into a trap and finally managed to climb out. How about you? Did you run into any trouble?"
Lin Feihong shook his head, his expression slightly relaxed: "Fortunately, you are all okay. I found the exit, follow me!"
Upon hearing the news, Chen Yile and Lin Qingyao's eyes flashed with excitement, and they immediately followed Lin Feihong's pace.
Lin Feihong led the way in front, and the marks he made could be seen along the way. The winding corridor looked gloomy and deep in the dim light.
The three of them walked for about half an hour and finally walked into a straight passage. They could vaguely see a faint light coming in front of them.
Chen Yile's breathing stagnated, and hope ignited in his heart: "Finally, I'm going to get out."
The three of them hurriedly quickened their pace, following the direction of the light. As the light gradually grew brighter, their pace quickened, and finally they emerged from the darkness and arrived at an unfamiliar open area.
The scene before them stunned them instantly - surrounded by towering mountains, there was an ancient and strange village hidden away.
The village's buildings have a distinct ancient style, with blue bricks and gray tiles. It seems as if it has been isolated from the world for a long time and is eerily quiet.
Lin Feihong was stunned and muttered, "There's actually an underground village? I thought this was the exit!"
Chen Yile observed his surroundings and nodded. "At least there's a village with people. It's better than constantly encountering monsters. Let's go over there and ask a family about their situation and take a break."
Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong nodded in agreement, and the three of them immediately walked towards the village.
However, when they tried to talk to the villagers, they found that every household looked wary and hurriedly closed the door when they saw them.
No matter how they knocked on the door or asked, the other party ignored them, as if they were a group of plague gods and should be avoided.
Chen Yile frowned and whispered to the two of them, "The villagers here seem to be very wary of outsiders. Let's look for them again."
Just then, the three of them arrived at a lonely courtyard. The gate was half-open, and the yard was filled with the faint aroma of herbs. A white-haired old woman was sitting under the eaves, holding a gray and old medicine jar in her hands, slowly stirring something.
Chen Yile walked forward, clasped his fists with a smile, and said, "Old man, we are travelers who have strayed here by mistake. We would like to ask you for some information. Could you please take us in for a night?"
The old lady raised her head and squinted her cloudy eyes to look at them. There was a trace of kindness and goodwill in her eyes. She nodded slowly and said, "Come in. Don't stand outside."
The three of them felt relieved and followed the old lady into the yard. The yard was not large, but it was very neatly arranged. Several pots of green herbs were placed in the corners. The air was filled with a refreshing herbal fragrance, which made people feel peaceful.
The old lady led them into a small house. The house was simple but cozy. Although the furnishings were plain, it exuded a warm atmosphere.
Lin Qingyao stepped forward politely and said with a smile, "Grandma, can we help you with anything? Thank you so much for your warm hospitality."
