The Game with Fairies

Chapter 89



The incident of the giant rat ghost that could attack people in Demon Sword City caused quite a stir.

Especially since Senior Brother Cheng, who was at the Foundation Establishment Realm, personally took action and was injured by the giant rat spirit, shattering people’s previous understanding of the spirits in Demon Sword City.

Although Senior Brother Cheng and the lord of Demon Sword City didn’t come to blows, the incident still caused a huge commotion.

Even Elder Yan was alerted.

But strangely, when Senior Brother Cheng and his group arrived at the scene, they couldn’t find the giant rat spirit.

“It seems that the giant rat spirit knows when to bully the weak and fear the strong.”

During breakfast, Guan Xiaoshun shared the latest news with Li Muyang, expressing his astonishment.

“It targets us Qi Refining Realm small fries and wanting to harm us.”

“When someone like Elder Yan, a powerful figure in the demonic path, arrives, the giant rat hides away… tsk tsk.”

Due to last night’s unexpected events, the dog search plan had to be put on hold.

Li Muyang and the others finally learned who the distinguished person looking for the lost dog was.

“They say it’s a dignitary from Centipede Ridge who was invited to help in Demon Sword City. Just as she entered the city, the dog she had raised for many years went missing.”

Li Yuechan also shared the information she had obtained.

Centipede Ridge was a demon’s lair conveniently located within the territory of the Demon Refining Sect.

Unlike human cultivators, demons preferred to live in the mountains and rarely ventured into the human world.

Since Centipede Ridge was situated within the Demon Refining Sect’s territory, they were allies.

Nowadays, demons didn’t need to descend the mountains to abduct humans, as cultivators from the Demon Refining Sect would deliver human blood and food right to their lair’s entrance.

Thus, demons mostly kept to themselves, mysterious and elusive.

Hearing the news shared by Li Yuechan, Guan Xiaoshun’s eyes widened.

“De… demons?!”

The naive young man from the border town couldn’t believe that he had been helping a demon search for its dog the night before.

“A dog raised by a demon must eat humans too, right?”

Guan Xiaoshun was scared after the fact: “It’s good that we didn’t find that dog last night. Otherwise, we’d be unlucky if we were eaten or bitten.”

Guan Xiaoshun and Li Yuechan had gathered a lot of information.

However, Li Muyang was not very interested in this gossipy news.

After finishing breakfast, he put down his bowl and stood up, walking out alone.

For cultivators, eating one meal of spiritual rice a day was enough. In the Demon Refining Sect, Li Muyang and the others only ate dinner.

The poor living conditions of the Outer Sect meant there wasn’t much else to satisfy their cravings besides spiritual rice.

But after arriving in Demon Sword City, the lord of the city had arranged for cooks, and these hard-living outer disciples could also follow the worldly custom of three meals a day, each one delicious. ȓ

Li Muyang, dressed in the green robe of a Demon Refining Sect outer disciple, walked the streets of Demon Sword City, with all the ordinary people looking at him with a mix of awe and curiosity.

Although outer disciples were the lowest rank in the Demon Refining Sect, in the outside world, a Qi Refining Realm cultivator was still considered a person of some status.

Li Muyang paid no attention to this, his expression indifferent.

After passing through the not-so-busy market area of Demon Sword City, he arrived at a secluded place.

Then Li Muyang closed his eyes, opened the system, and entered the game.

After battling over a dozen times in the game last night, Li Muyang finally defeated the Crimson Flame King.

Now the experience points for the Wheel of Dharma Extinction had gone from 18% to 32%.

Li Muyang controlled Jiang Xiaoyu to return and see Luo Feng to submit the mission.

【Luo Feng: Good! You’ve come at the right time. While you were off assassinating the Crimson Flame King, I managed to find a clue about the Startling Swan Immortal Sword】

【Luo Feng: According to the Shape-shifter Master’s confession, there is a special area in the city, a tomb that Fairy Yu set up for her husband】

【Luo Feng: Fairy Yu and her husband were very affectionate. Now that she has perished, her last wish might have been to be buried with her husband】

【Luo Feng: Take the Shape-shifter Master’s head and leave immediately. While the city is not yet in chaos, go find that tomb and retrieve the Startling Swan Immortal Sword】

After Luo Feng in the game finished speaking, he took out the Shape-shifter Master’s head and handed it to Jiang Xiaoyu.

At this moment, the Shape-shifter Master’s expression was calm, no longer as agitated as when he had just died.

The hair at the back of its head served as a rope, and Jiang Xiaoyu, holding the head, chuckled.

【Jiang Xiaoyu: Shape-shifter Master, we meet again】

【Shape-shifter Master: …】

The Shape-shifter Master expressionlessly looked away.

【Luo Feng: I’ve already negotiated with the Shape-shifter Master, and he’s willing to help us. With him guiding you, you will definitely be able to find that tomb】

As soon as Luo Feng finished speaking, the ground beneath their feet suddenly shook violently.

Following that, from within the distant city, came the sounds of chaotic roars and shouts.

【Luo Feng: Not good! The demons have started their attack ahead of schedule!】

Immediately after, Luo Feng’s half-demon subordinates ran over in a panic, reporting the situation.

【Tushan Jun: General, it’s bad! The demons started their attack ahead of time and attacked the human settlements!】

【Wu Damu: It’s said that someone killed the Crimson Flame King in the street, which triggered a fierce reaction from the demons. Now they’ve come to kill early, and the city is in chaos!】

The ground trembled intermittently as if there were an earthquake.

And in the distance, within the city, smoke of war had already risen.

This chaotic and dangerous environment corroborated the latest intelligence from the two half-demons.

After hearing this information, half-demon general Luo Feng instinctively turned his head to look at Jiang Xiaoyu.

Jiang Xiaoyu guiltily averted his gaze.

【Luo Feng: …】

【Luo Feng: Forget it, these demons were bound to cause trouble sooner or later. It doesn’t make much difference whether it’s sooner or later】

【Luo Feng: It’s just that they’ve launched their attack early, and with the city in chaos, I can’t send anyone to help you】

【Luo Feng: You must now go alone with the Shape-shifter Master through the war zone to retrieve the Startling Swan Immortal Sword】

【Luo Feng: This task is extremely dangerous, so I will lend you one of my magical treasures for the time being. I hope you will make good use of it】

After the half-demon general finished speaking, he handed over a magical treasure to Jiang Xiaoyu.

【Received Soul-Cleaving Gourd】

【Soul-Cleaving Gourd: A magical treasure cultivated with the life force of half-demon general Luo Feng, capable of releasing a soul-cleaving flying knife that inflicts massive damage on enemies】

【Soul-Cleaving Gourd (17/17)】

Li Muyang read the description of the item and found out that it was a long-range magical treasure.

It could release a flying knife at a time, with a total of 17 releases available.

Moreover, the flying knife would replenish every minute.

This item was extremely lethal, but the number of uses was limited.

If he had this magical treasure from the start, dealing with the Crimson Flame King wouldn’t have been so troublesome.

Moreover, this magical treasure perfectly compensated for Li Muyang’s lack of long-range skills.

After securing the Soul-Cleaving Gourd, Li Muyang controlled Jiang Xiaoyu to leave the residence of the half-demon general Luo Feng.

Before leaving, Luo Feng gave him one last piece of advice.

【Luo Feng: You will pass by Granny Gu’s residence on your journey. Be very careful around her, it’s best not to get close】

【Luo Feng: Granny Gu is extremely dangerous!】
