I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

"You...you! You despicable guy!"

Tiger Vanguard was spitting out mouthfuls of blood, his eyes filled with disbelief and anger. He had never imagined that Li Chen would suddenly attack him while he was negotiating with him, not only seriously injuring him but also killing his own little demons.

At this moment, his body was extremely weak, and the sword in his hand fell limply to the ground. He could only stare at Li Chen with resentful eyes, his heart filled with endless hatred and murderous intent. If looks could kill, Li Chen would have been cut into pieces long ago.

However, facing Hu Xianfeng's accusations, Li Chen just smiled coldly: "I am despicable? You are holding the villagers hostage to threaten me, isn't that despicable?" His voice was cold and firm, and he did not hide his contempt for these monsters.

These monsters usually commit many evil deeds and kill countless people, but now they turn around and say that others are despicable. They only allow the county officials to set fires, but not allow the people to light lamps. This double standard makes Li Chen extremely angry.

"You damned bastard! I'm going to fight you!"

Tiger Vanguard roared, enduring the severe pain in his chest, and using all his remaining strength, he swung his sword and rushed towards Li Chen. Although his movements were a little slow, his desperate aura still made people feel a chill.

But the scene before him stunned him. There were actually six Li Chens in front of him! He rubbed his eyes and found that there were really six Li Chens on the field.

The six Li Chens wore contemptuous smiles on their faces and mocked in unison: "Haha, this is my unique skill - continuous afterimage attack!" It turned out that when Li Chen used this move, he could summon five clones that were exactly the same as himself.

Tiger Vanguard roared angrily, "What's the point of doing these cheap tricks? Get out here!" He wanted to tear Li Chen into pieces. He raised his sword and slashed at one of the Li Chens, but the Li Chen nimbly dodged Tiger Vanguard's attack.

"Damn it!" Tiger Vanguard spat out blood again in anger. He was now burning with rage. Since he couldn't find the real Li Chen, he might as well destroy all these clones! That would force Li Chen out, right?

So, he roared and continued to rush towards the clones, swinging his sword non-stop, trying to chop them down. However, these clones were like Li Chen, so how could they be easily hit by him? Tiger Vanguard was soon exhausted and could no longer move.

"Now is the time to execute you!"

The six Li Chens shouted in unison, their voices unified as if they were the same person. Then, they simultaneously focused their strength into their fists, and three streams of blazing flames rose from their hands like blazing suns. These three flames quickly merged together, forming six dazzling balls of light, like brilliant stars suspended between the palms of the six Li Chens.

"ah!"

The six Li Chens roared in unison, their voices resonating like thunder, shocking everyone. As they roared, they accelerated the speed at which they charged the light balls, making the six light balls shine even more dazzlingly.

The power of the three flames continuously poured into the ball of light, causing it to grow ever larger and more powerful. The color of the ball gradually changed, from vibrant red to a deep purple, emitting a suffocating heat. This all-destructive force was terrifying, as if it could destroy the entire world.

"Destroy—God—with one—strike!"

The six Li Chens shouted in unison once again, their voices filled with majesty and dominance. As they roared, the huge balls of light in their hands, with unparalleled power, smashed fiercely towards Tiger Vanguard.

Instantly, Tiger Vanguard's body was engulfed by this destructive force. He didn't even have time to utter a scream before the terrifying devastation of this devastating blow completely obliterated him. In the blink of an eye, Tiger Vanguard's figure vanished without a trace, leaving only devastation and endless silence.

"Little brother, why did you kill that Tiger Vanguard? Now if we anger that Yellow Wind King, we'll be in trouble!"

The male villager who had just asked Li Chen to surrender and be killed by the demon cried out, his voice sharp and piercing, as if he wanted to release all the fear and anxiety in his heart.

He cried and banged his head against the ground, as if trying to vent his inner anxiety. However, his behavior was ridiculous and pathetic, and he had no manliness at all.

"How dare you talk like that? Look at this little brother, he has such magical powers, so why is he afraid of the Yellow Wind King? Tell me, you joined the resistance against the demons, but failed. How did you become such a timid coward?" At this time, the brave female villager next to him couldn't stand it anymore, and she stood up and accused him.

Her tone was firm and powerful, revealing an indomitable spirit that belonged to women. Li Chen had just learned from her that the timid male villager was once a member of the resistance army, but now he had become as timid as a mouse for some reason.

"That's enough, stop talking! My brother died in front of me because he joined the resistance! The evil wind was so strong that it blocked out the sky and the sun. My brother was blown away by the evil wind right in front of me, and then he died in front of me!" The male villager suddenly raised his head, tears in his eyes, and retorted loudly.

His voice was filled with anger and helplessness, as if he wanted to vent all the pain that had been pent up in his heart for years. His words also made the people around him fall into silence. Everyone could feel the pain and helplessness in his heart.

"You think I want to be a coward? Do you think I don't want freedom? That evil wind is too powerful. No one can defeat it!"

The villager continued to cry, saying that no one dared to refute him anymore, because no one had ever seen the resistance army completely wiped out. And he was the only one who survived!

Li Chen stepped forward and untied the ropes that bound the villagers. He asked, "Can you tell me what's so special about that evil wind?"

"Little brother, are you going to challenge that rat demon? I advise you not to waste your energy and die in vain!"

The male villager persuaded Li Chen not to challenge the rat demon.

"How do you know you can't do it if you don't try?"

Li Chen raised the Soul-Restoring Pearl as he spoke. The light of the Soul-Restoring Pearl shone on the villager whose head was chopped off by Tiger Vanguard. A new head began to grow at the wound of the villager's chopped-off head.

The head continued to grow, the muscles and bones gradually took shape, and finally a complete head appeared in front of everyone. Not long after, the villager stood up from the ground. He was resurrected by Li Chen!

The villagers stared with their eyes wide open, unable to believe what was happening before their eyes. They had never seen such a magical power that could allow a dead person to grow a new head.

"What...what kind of treasure is this?" someone asked in amazement.

Li Chen smiled and explained, "This is the Soul-Restoring Pearl. It has the ability to resurrect people. You can restore your vitality through the Soul-Restoring Pearl."

The villagers all showed surprised expressions and were full of curiosity and awe about the resurrection bead in Li Chen's hand.

"So that's how it is. No wonder you have the confidence to challenge the rat demon." The male villager said with emotion, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Li Chen nodded and continued to ask about the rat demon: "What's so special about that evil wind? Why does it terrify you so much?"

The male villager took a deep breath, tried to calm his excitement, and recalled the scene.

"That evil wind came with such force and speed that we didn't even have time to react. Furthermore, the force of the wind was so strong that it almost blew us all high into the sky. Then the wind suddenly stopped, and we all fell from the highest point. I was lucky enough to grab a tree, so I didn't die from the fall! And the others..."

At this point, the male villager burst into tears again. Almost everyone who came down at that time was smashed into a pulp! The rebels were blown to pieces by the evil wind, and the wreckage was scattered all over the ground!

Li Chen frowned, thinking about this information. It seemed that this rat demon was indeed difficult to deal with, but he did not intend to give up easily.

"Thank you for the information you provided, but I still decided to give it a try. If we can't defeat the rat demon, we will never be able to gain true freedom." Li Chen said firmly.

The male villager was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Well, since you've made up your mind, we can only wish you good luck. But please be careful and don't underestimate the rat demon's strength."

At the same time, Li Chen also began to use the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission to tell Fairy Furong and others the news that his side had won, asking them to rush here as quickly as possible to meet him and fight against the next enemy together!
