Farmer Girl Reborn: I Play the Pig and Eat the Tiger in the World of Immortal Cultivation

Yan Yue stopped, staring at the barrier with a serious look, and whispered, "Jin, look..."

The barrier flickered with an eerie purple-black light, and an unsettling aura filled the air.

Nong Jin frowned and reached out to the barrier, but a strong resistance bounced him back.

"This barrier... seems to contain some powerful dark power."

"It's the Shadow Assassin." Yan Yue said with certainty, a cold glint in his eyes, "They really won't give up."

As soon as he finished speaking, several dark shadows slowly walked out from behind the barrier. They were the shadow assassins.

They were dressed in black night clothes and had masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of cold eyes, exuding a chilling murderous aura.

One of the assassins was holding a trembling passerby in his hand. The passerby's face was pale and his lips were trembling. It was obvious that he was very scared.

“Hand over the treasure, otherwise…” The leading assassin spoke in a hoarse voice with a hint of cruelty in his tone.

The dagger in his hand was pressed against the hostage's neck, and a trickle of blood slowly flowed down.

The air around them seemed frozen, the atmosphere tense to the extreme. Some timid passersby had already fled far away, fearing that they would be dragged into the dispute.

"What should we do? They've taken hostages..." Nong Jin whispered, a hint of worry in his tone.

Although he is powerful, he is cautious and dares not act rashly.

Yan Yue's face was calm, but his eyes were extremely firm.

She knew very well that the Shadow Assassins were extremely vicious and even if they handed over the treasures, they might not be able to save their lives.

What's more, she will never bow to these evil forces.

"Don't be afraid, I will save you." Yan Yue whispered to the hostage with a soothing tone.

On the surface, Yan Yue looked calm and composed, but in fact, her heart was already in turmoil.

She knew that the battle was inevitable, but she had to find a way to rescue the hostages first.

Seeing this, the leader of the Shadow Assassins let out a sinister laugh: "Little girl, are you stalling for time? Do you think you still have a chance?"

"Opportunities are created by ourselves." Yan Yue raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile.

The shadow assassins seemed to be irritated by Yan Yue's confidence. The leading assassin roared, "If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the wine! If that's the case, don't blame us for being rude!"

At this moment, a gleam of light flashed in Yan Yue's eyes, and she quietly released a hidden spiritual power fluctuation. This fluctuation was extremely weak and difficult to detect, but it could interfere with the shadow assassin's control over the hostages.

The hostage felt his control weakening, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly broke free from the assassin's restraints and ran towards Yan Yue and Nong Jin.

"Looking for death!" Seeing this, the leading assassin waved his dagger and chased after him.

However, at this moment, Nong Jin moved. A golden light surged around him, and like a flash of lightning, he broke through the spiritual barrier and headed straight for the shadow assassin.

"You're overestimating yourself!" The leading assassin sneered, and the dagger in his hand turned into a black light, heading towards Nong Jin...

Yan Yue responded calmly. She quietly released a hidden spiritual power fluctuation, which wrapped around the kidnapped passerby like an invisible silk thread, interfering with the shadow assassin's control.

The hostage felt his whole body relax, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly broke free from the assassin's restraints, crawling towards Yan Yue and Nong Jin.

"Looking for death!" Seeing this, the leading assassin roared in anger and chased after him, waving a dagger.

The dagger cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound and reflecting a cold light in the night.

The other assassins behind him were also ready to move, exuding bloodthirsty murderous aura, like a group of cheetahs waiting for an opportunity.

However, at this moment, Nong Jin moved.

The golden light around him suddenly surged, like a golden lightning that streaked across the night sky, instantly breaking through the spiritual barrier that was flashing with strange purple-black light.

The barrier shattered like glass, making a sharp explosion.

He rushed straight towards the Shadow Assassin, moving so fast that it was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye.

"You don't know your own limitations!" The leading assassin sneered, and the dagger in his hand turned into a black light and rushed towards Nong Jin.

He was full of confidence in himself. After all, as the leader of the Shadow Assassins, his strength should not be underestimated.

The air around seemed to freeze, filled with a tense atmosphere.

Passersby hiding in the distance held their breath and watched this sudden battle nervously, their hearts filled with fear and anticipation.

Some of the timid ones even covered their eyes, not daring to look at the tragic scene that might happen next.

Nong Jin and the Shadow Assassin engage in a final battle.

Golden light swirled around him, his clothes fluttered, and he looked like a god descending to earth.

He used powerful magic, and the golden spiritual light illuminated the entire street like daylight.

The surrounding buildings were shaken slightly by this powerful force, and some fragile windows even burst open.

"Tian Gang Demon Subduing Palm!" Nong Jin roared, and the golden palm print slapped towards the leading assassin like a mountain pressing down on his head.

The palm wind roared with overwhelming force, as if it was going to crush everything.

The leading assassin's face suddenly changed. He felt the power of this force and his heart was filled with fear.

He tried his best to resist, but it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, and he was unable to stop this devastating blow.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the leading assassin was blown away by the palm wind and fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth and dying.

Seeing this, the other assassins were already frightened out of their wits and turned around to flee.

Nong Jin did not pursue him. He slowly withdrew his palm and the golden light gradually dissipated.

He stood proudly, like a god of war, looking down at everything around him.

The people around were shocked by this powerful force. They looked at Nong Jin in awe, their eyes full of admiration and respect.

Yan Yue watched Nong Jin fight nervously from the side, his hands clenched tightly together, his nails almost digging into the flesh.

She was worried about Nong Jin's safety, her heart in her throat, until she saw him win, she breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, she was also proud of Nong Jin's strength, with admiration shining in her eyes.

"It's over..." Yan Yue said softly, with a hint of trembling in his tone... Yan Yue's heart was beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

She stared at Nong Jin's figure closely, her eyes refusing to leave him for a moment.

He was like a god descending from heaven, shining with golden light, and every wave of his palm was like a thundering force.

She could feel the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations in the air, which was enough to destroy the world.

Every movement of Nong Jin is full of power and beauty, as smooth and natural as flowing clouds and water.

His eyes were firm and he showed no fear, and he never backed down even when facing a powerful enemy.

Yan Yue's eyes were full of worry. She was afraid that Nong Jin would get hurt and that something bad would happen to him.

But at the same time, she was also proud of his strength and his bravery.

She knew that Nong Jin was trying to protect her and their common goal.

This feeling of being protected made her feel warm and secure, and also made her more determined to fight alongside him.

As the last assassin fell, the noisy battle finally quieted down.

The air around seemed to freeze, leaving only the heavy breathing of people.

Nong Jin slowly turned around, the golden light gradually dissipated, revealing his handsome face.

There was a hint of fatigue on his face, but also a hint of joy of victory.

He walked up to Yan Yue, smiled gently, and said, "It's okay."

Yan Yue's eyes were slightly red, she held back her tears and nodded.

She knew that Nong Jin's words were not only to comfort her, but also to tell her that they had overcome another difficult time together.

People around gathered around and looked at Nong Jin and Yan Yue with admiration.

Some people even began to whisper, admiring their strength and bravery.

"That's amazing! I didn't expect them to be able to defeat the Shadow Assassin!"

"Yeah, they're just heroes!"

"Now, those assassins won't dare to come again, right?"

Listening to the discussions around her, Yan Yue's mouth curled up slightly. She knew that they had successfully protected the treasure and also successfully upheld justice.

The auction resumed, and Mo Xiaodie walked onto the stage to announce the continuation of the auction. She looked in the direction of Yan Yue and Nong Jin, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.

Yan Yue also looked at Mo Xiaodie, and their eyes met in the air, as if they were having a silent communication.

Finally, Yan Yue won the treasure she wanted at a high price. She carefully put the treasure away, her heart filled with joy.

However, at this moment, Shopkeeper Li came over hurriedly with a look of anxiety on his face.

He walked up to Yan Yue and Nong Jin and whispered, "You two, I just got news that a black gang with supernatural powers..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a sudden commotion.

Everyone turned to look in the direction of the commotion, and saw a group of men in black walking towards them, holding weapons in their hands and looking murderous.

Yan Yue and Nong Jin looked at each other, and both had a bad feeling in their hearts.

"It seems that trouble is coming again..." Yan Yue said in a low voice.

Nong Jin gripped the sword tightly in his hand and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Then let them come!"

The men in black came aggressively and surrounded Yan Yue and Nong Jin in an instant.

They were dressed in night clothes, their faces covered with black cloth, revealing only a pair of cold eyes emitting a bloodthirsty light.

There was a tense atmosphere in the air, like a taut string that could break at any time.

"Another shadow assassin?" Nong Jin's voice was low and powerful, with a hint of barely perceptible anger.

He protected Yan Yue behind him, and with a golden light flashing in his hand, a golden sword appeared out of thin air.

Yan Yue frowned slightly and thought to himself: It seems that the underworld supernatural organization is determined to get this treasure this time.

She calmly stuffed the small brocade bag containing the treasure into Nong Jin's hand and whispered, "Be careful."

Nong Jin held Yan Yue's hand tightly and gave her a reassuring look.

He knew very well that although Yan Yue looked weak on the surface, he was actually a meticulous and powerful cultivator.

He believed that even if he couldn't take care of her, she would be able to protect herself.

The battle is about to break out.

The man in black approached quickly like a ghost, the sharp blade in his hand flashing with cold light, pointing directly at Yan Yue and Nong Jin.

Nong Jin's figure flashed, turning into a golden light and rushed forward.

The sword light was like a rainbow, carrying a sharp sword energy, instantly knocking down several men in black.

Although Yan Yue appeared calm on the surface, he had secretly pushed his spiritual power to its limit.

She paid close attention to her surroundings, vigilantly guarding against any accidents that might occur.

She knew that these men in black were just cannon fodder and the real threat was still lurking in the dark.

Sure enough, just as Nong Jin was fighting fiercely with the man in black, a black shadow rushed out from the crowd and headed straight for Yan Yue.

The black shadow was extremely fast and appeared in front of Yan Yue in the blink of an eye. The sharp dagger in his hand pierced her heart.

Yan Yue was prepared and dodged to the side, avoiding the fatal blow.

She slapped back with her palm, and the palm wind containing powerful spiritual power hit the black shadow's chest.

The black shadow groaned, flew backwards, and fell heavily to the ground.

"Want to launch a sneak attack? Not that easy!" Yan Yue snorted coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

The black shadow lying on the ground struggled to get up, but found that he could not move.

He raised his head, revealing a ferocious face. It was Long Batian who had competed with Yan Yue for the treasure at the auction before.

"You...you actually..." Long Batian said gritting his teeth, his eyes full of unwillingness and resentment.

Yan Yue looked at him coldly without saying a word. She knew that Long Batian was just a pawn of the underworld supernatural organization, and the real mastermind behind the scenes was someone else.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Li's voice rang out from the crowd: "Be careful, both of you! Elder Sun has been held hostage!"

Yan Yue and Nong Jin looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Old Sun was being held hostage by two men in black with a shining dagger on his neck.

Old Sun’s face was pale and his eyes were filled with fear.

"Let Mr. Sun go!" Nong Jin shouted sternly.

The man in black who was holding Old Sun hostage smiled grimly: "If you want him to live, hand over the treasure!"

Yan Yue and Nong Jin looked at each other and understood in their hearts that this was a dilemma.

If they hand over the treasure, all their previous efforts will be in vain; if they don’t hand it over, Mr. Sun’s life will be in danger.

"What should we do?" Yan Yue asked in a low voice.

Nong Jin did not answer. His eyes were fixed on the man in black who was holding Old Sun hostage, and his mind was rapidly thinking of a countermeasure.

Suddenly, Nong Jin's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. He whispered a few words into Yan Yue's ear.

After listening to this, Yan Yue's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he nodded.

"Okay, let's do as you say!" Yan Yue said.

Nong Jin took a deep breath and said loudly: "Okay, we agree to your conditions!"

He took out a small brocade bag containing a treasure from his bosom and slowly walked towards the man in black... He handed the brocade bag out, and the man in black reached out to take it...
