Free Web NovelChapter 312: Chapter 120: Out of Sight, Face to Face
This kind of slaughter is ten times, a hundred times harder than just telling you where the enemy is or how difficult the dungeon is!
And Li Xuan can’t ignore it, because the Demon Bear has already reached out to the Great Yin.
The great battle has already begun. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Unless he takes his family and flees, it might be the only way to escape this catastrophe.
But who knows if there’s another sinister demon lurking in another place?
’The Great Yin is mine!!’
Li Xuan clenched his fist, his expression filled with rage and coldness.
To him, this battle is a territorial struggle between demons.
He needs territory to settle down, to house his family, to provide food, and... incense.
...
...
The wasteland stretches endlessly, with pouring rain and wind carrying the sound of long grasses rustling.
A figure tall as a mountain sits silently amidst the long grass in the forest, leaning against a cage covered with thick cloth, holding a small cage emitting a red glow.
If you look closely, you’ll find the red glow inside the cage is extremely dazzling, increasingly difficult to look at as you move towards the center, and staring for too long might even cause blindness.
Below that mountain-like figure, there are actually quite a few "dwarves."
It’s just that these "dwarves" are of normal human height.
One of the "dwarves" said, "Master, it’s almost dawn and there’s no news coming back. Should we go to support them?"
The giant shadow hunches slightly, carrying a heavy sword on its back as if in deep sleep, it didn’t answer but instead tore open the black cloth in the cage and pulled out a sturdy man clad in luxurious armor, who had already fainted.
Then, like peeling a shrimp, it quickly stripped the armor off the man with its huge furry fingers.
In the process of peeling, there were inevitably bumps and scrapes.
The man frowned slightly, suddenly opening his eyes.
But he could only see a mass of blackness.
"I am Qu Shihu, Grand General of Yunzhou. Which demon are you?! How dare you kidnap me here?!"
The giant shadow chuckled deeply and terrifyingly, accustomed to the food making comments before dying, it’s one of its dining pleasures.
Without speaking, the giant shadow directly stuffed Qu Shihu into its mouth.
It started eating from the legs.
With a crunch, it bit off the flesh below the waist.
Chewing happily. free𝑤ebnovel.com
These days, being able to eat until full is truly a blissful thing.
Thus, when it eats, it always does so seriously, never bothering to speak.
But today, after chewing for a bit, an overwhelming stench assaulted its senses.
Spitting!!
The chewed-up flesh was immediately spat out onto the ground.
Under the lantern’s red light, it was apparent that it wasn’t flesh at all but a lump of rotten meat, a piece of decayed flesh from who knows how long ago!
Within its palm, the mortally injured Qu Shihu suddenly began to laugh eerily.
"The Great Yin belongs to the Master. You demon, you’ve overstepped."
The giant shadow was somewhat stunned before grinning, revealing sharp white teeth, it didn’t ask questions but simply stroked its palm to peel off the ghost Qu Shihu’s human skin, seemingly with some intention in mind.
But, oh, the ghost’s "human skin," how could it still be human skin?
The peeled skin also emitted a foul odor.
The giant shadow gave a gentle smack.
The ghost Qu Shihu screamed pitifully, his whole body turning into a puff of green smoke and completely dissipating.
The giant shadow then reached back into the iron cage, grabbed another unconscious person, quickly peeled the "shell," and consumed them.
This time, it got lucky; the food wasn’t a ghost.
After eating, it spat out a human skin, then started vomiting onto the holes in the skin.
Chunks of flesh spewed from its mouth, making the skin more substantial.
Once it was thickened, the giant shadow stopped, set the skin aside.
About an hour later, the human skin suddenly reacted, creaking into motion, and the irregular flesh inside quickly balanced out, the red and white face swiftly gaining a normal complexion, as if coming back to life.
"Master." The newly formed Bear Puppet knelt before the giant shadow.
Only then did the giant shadow start answering the question from the "dwarves" beneath.
"No need."
The "dwarf" continued, "Master, should the people outside be withdrawn? They were initially planning to besiege the disciples escaping from the Lingyi Sect."
"No need."
The giant shadow’s voice was hoarse, menacing with a touch of mockery. He stood up, dusted off his backside, saying, "Those who should go to the Great Yin go to the Great Yin, those who should go to Great Yong go to Great Yong, I’ll find a good spot to watch the show."
The "dwarf" said, "But, Master’s sister is still there. She said Feng Xiongyi was defeated and dethroned, his whereabouts unknown. She wants to find him."
"Sister?"
The giant shadow flicked out its scarlet tongue, filled with numerous human skins.
He picked one out, examined it, and said, "It is indeed his sister."
With that, he waved his hand.
The Bear Puppets beneath him understood, dispersing quickly.
The giant shadow then grabbed the human skin, wearing it from top to bottom as if dressing.
Once fully dressed, the giant shadow vanished, replaced by a tall, skinny man.
The man took a white robe, fastened his hair carefully, and when finished, appeared ever more handsome and uncommon.
If anyone were present, they would surely see that this man was none other than the eldest son of the "Six Alliances of Lishan" — Ji Changfeng.
Ji Changfeng nodded at the giant sword, which shrank instantly.
He gracefully shouldered the giant sword, then took an oiled paper umbrella from the prepared items, and leisurely walked towards a summit on the Bronze Plain.
