The Legend of the Demon Hunter

The headless statue was lying quietly in his storage jade bracelet, but the one in front of him at the boutique trade fair was intact. It was the first time that Xiao Zhu saw the head of the statue. It was a woman with long hair, sharp features and a very pretty appearance.

Her beauty is not inferior to Xia Shi's, but compared to Xia Shi's gentleness, the woman in the statue is more resolute and cold.

Who is this statue? Xiao Zhu asked himself.

More importantly, Xiao Zhu realized that through it he might be able to find out the identity of the mysterious man living in seclusion in Heshan, and even the purpose of the sinister and ruthless Gu Chuan. After a slight hesitation, Xiao Zhu still walked up.

"Fifty silver coins." A man in the Demon Hunter Association uniform walked up, looked at the statue in Xiao Zhu's hand, and took the initiative to introduce the price.

"Deal!" Xiao Zhu responded decisively.

The uniformed man smiled with satisfaction at Xiao Zhu's straightforwardness. He took the silver coin skillfully and handed the statue to Xiao Zhu. But Xiao Zhu's next sentence made him stand there in embarrassment: "Excuse me, can I meet the seller of this item?"

Most members who came to the boutique trade fair were very clear about the association's trading rules. Although it was not the first time that Xiao Zhu asked to see the items for sale, it was extremely rare. The uniformed man was stunned for a moment, and then politely said, "I need to ask the seller for his opinion. Please wait a moment."

After saying this, the uniformed man hurried away. Xiao Zhu waited for a long time, and when he no longer had any hope, the uniformed man hurried back and said to Xiao Zhu politely: "The seller agrees, please follow me."

Xiao Zhu followed the uniformed man into a small house of about five square meters. A middle-aged man with a full beard was sitting in the room. When he saw Xiao Zhu coming in, he had no expression on his face and said in a rough and low voice: "Could it be that this young man is also investigating the massacre in Minglou Village?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhu was stunned. Not to mention the massacre, he had never even heard of Minglou Village.

Seeing Xiao Zhu's dull expression, the bearded man thought that Xiao Zhu had relatives living in Minglou Village and was in deep pain, so he hurriedly said, "Don't be too sad, little brother. The Demon Hunter Association and Novan College have arranged experts to investigate this matter, and they will surely give an explanation to the deceased villagers."

"Uncle, I have been carrying out tasks for the Demon Hunter Association for some time. Today is the first time I heard about the Minglou Village tragedy. Could you please give me a detailed introduction?" Xiao Zhu asked politely after calming down.

"It was a coincidence that I learned about the Minglou Village tragedy. I happened to have a friend who lived in the village. Some time ago, we agreed to go on a demon hunting mission together. But when I walked into the village, I found that it was empty. When I found my friend's house, I only found this statue."

"After I returned to Novan City, I learned from others that all the villagers in Minglou Village had been killed and disappeared. This was unbelievable to me because Minglou Village was only 40 to 50 miles away from Novan City, and there were many demon hunters living in the village. To be able to kill the entire village silently, what incredible power must have been."

"Because I haven't carried out a mission for a long time, I'm really short of money these days, so I brought this statue here to see if I can sell it. I didn't have much hope, but I didn't expect that you, little brother, would take a fancy to it." The bearded man said in a rough voice.

Getting this information was enough for Xiao Zhu. He said goodbye to the bearded man, wandered around the boutique trade fair for a while, and then left the Demon Hunter Association.

In Nuowan City, Xiao Zhu found out the location of Minglou Village after a little inquiry, so he headed straight to Minglou Village. After all, the headless statue was found in the Heshan anthill, and Heshan Village was where he grew up. There was such a confusing secret hidden near the small mountain village in his hometown, and he couldn't just ignore it.

It was already evening when he arrived at Minglou Village. As the sun set, the sky gradually darkened. Xiao Zhu walked into Minglou Village. The size of this village was more than ten times larger than Heshan Village where he grew up. There were thousands of families living in the village. Now he was walking on the road in the village. The houses around him were dark and there was no light, which added a bit of gloom.

Even the surrounding environment was dead silent, and he could clearly hear the rustling sound of himself walking on the road.

Xiao Zhu walked in silence, observing the surroundings as he walked. The center of the village was where the fighting was most intense, and the houses here were largely destroyed into ruins. Xiao Zhu was attracted by a black mark on the side of the road, which looked like a ball of dried liquid, and in the liquid, there were some hairs as thick as fingers.

"Monster?" Xiao Zhu became alert. He had never seen this kind of hair before, but judging from its thickness, the monster should be very huge.

If it was a monster, it would explain the disappearance of thousands of households in the village.

At this moment, Xiao Zhu suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. He raised his head suddenly and saw that the sky seemed to be blocked by a huge black curtain, and this black curtain that blocked out the sky and the sun was the wings of a demon beast spread out.

"What kind of monster is this?" Xiao Zhu's heart trembled. The huge pressure caused by this monster made him feel weak in his legs.

Xiao Zhu has now completed two blood awakenings, and is an intermediate demon hunter who possesses the spiritual power of the three veins of water, fire and earth. Ordinary level two demon beasts are no longer taken seriously. Even if he encounters a level three demon beast, he has the ability to escape even if he cannot win.

The aura emitted by the flying monster in the air was far more powerful than that of a level three monster, making him feel that he had no power to resist at all.

He held his breath, fearing to disturb the huge monster. The huge wings passed over his head, less than ten meters from the ground. The fierce wind blew sand and rocks around. The sand and rocks rubbed Xiao Zhu's cheek, making him feel painful.

Xiao Zhu could see clearly now that the huge flying monster in the sky looked like a bat, but there were no less than ten kinds of bat-like monsters recorded in the Warcraft Records, so he couldn't tell which kind it was.

"Hiss--" The huge bat let out a sharp cry, the sound echoing through the sky and making Xiao Zhu's ears buzz.

With this cry, the bat rushed into the sky and gradually moved away from Xiao Zhu. He breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the huge monster did not discover him.

But just when he relaxed for a moment, the bat suddenly reversed direction and swooped down towards him. Xiao Zhu's face changed drastically. Under the keen perception of the high-level magic beast, he was finally exposed!

Looking at the huge wings that covered the sky and rushed down, Xiao Zhu felt as if a curtain of heaven had descended, blocking out the light of the sun, moon and stars, leaving only pitch darkness in front of him.

He knew that he had almost no chance of survival in the bat's hands, but he was not willing to sit and wait for death, so he took out the ice and fire polar bead that he bought from the auction today, held it tightly in his hand, and prepared to fight for his life.

"evildoer!"

Just as the bat's giant claws were about to tear Xiao Zhu into pieces, suddenly a cold shout was heard.

An invisible golden light followed and instantly rushed in front of Xiao Zhu. It was a shining fairy sword, about three feet long. It seemed insignificant under the huge size of the bat that covered the sky. But when the bat's giant claws touched the sword, the sword's sword light suddenly surged a thousand times, forming a huge barrier. The bat's giant claws were blocked in the air and could not move forward.

"Hiss--" The bat let out an angry hiss, flapping its wings and flying back into the air. At this time, Xiao Zhu noticed that there was a huge wound about one meter long on the right wing of the bat. The bat was actually injured! Could it have been injured by the mysterious master before it arrived here?

The sword master naturally would not miss the details that Xiao Zhu noticed. He chased after the immortal sword and pointed it directly at the bat's right wing. The bat wanted to dodge, but its huge body became a burden to it. The immortal sword was several times faster than it, and in an instant, it had pierced dozens of wounds on the bat's right wing.

The bat screamed in pain, blood dripping from the sky like rain. As a high-level demon beast, it had a very mature mind and realized that the owner of the immortal sword was very powerful. If it continued to fight, its life would be in danger. It let out a shrill scream, and its huge body suddenly burst out with powerful strength, escaping into the air.
