Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Xu Yao smiled helplessly and said to Bai Lian.

"Good girl, I understand, stop reading, stop reading."

Bai Lian looked at Xu Yao and shook her head helplessly. She patted Xu Yao's shoulder and said to him again.

"In short, I hope you have a safe journey and that we will meet again someday."

"me too."

Xu Yao nodded, and the two parted ways there.

After walking alone for a while, Xu Yao sensed someone watching him from the shadows. Before he could call out, the person appeared in front of him on their own.

The newcomers were none other than members of the Blood Demon Hall.

Xu Yao glanced at the man, then shook his head helplessly.

"Honestly, I would never betray the Blood Demon Hall. It seems that Lord Blood Demon still doesn't trust me enough, and actually sent you to monitor me."

The man bowed to Xu Yao.

"Please forgive me, my lord. I was just a little careless and did not receive any orders from the Blood Demon Lord."

Xu Yao chuckled but said nothing, simply walking back to the Blood Demon Hall with the man.

That's what he said, but how could he not know the Blood Demon's purpose?

But it doesn't matter. I think the Blood Demon will lower his guard after this.

After that, getting out will be even easier.

Time flew by, and on this day, after doing something that satisfied the Blood Demon, [they]...

Blood Demon was in a great mood, and taking advantage of the opportunity, Xu Yao once again asked to go out and have fun.

Blood Demon readily agreed, leaving it to Xu Yao to handle as he saw fit.

Xu Yao left without saying a word.

As he left, he carefully observed the area around the coffin above the well; his sharp eyesight did not detect anyone following him.

It seems that Blood Demon has lowered his guard this time, and he should be able to leave Blood Demon Hall smoothly.

With that in mind, Xu Yao immediately left.

Xu Yao happened to see that scene while on the road.

Under the trees on the side of the road, lay an elderly man, well past fifty.

The old man was dressed in rags and smelled terrible.

Unfortunately, even so, trouble still found him.

Two thugs were loitering in front of the old man, cursing and swearing at him.

If it were just cursing and swearing, that would be one thing, but these two thugs actually started to physically assault the old man.

If Xu Yao hadn't overheard their conversation, he would never have imagined that someone could do something like this.

"Look at this old man, he's really ugly, he looks like a toad, I feel nauseous just looking at him."

"That's right. I feel disgusted when I see people like that. I really want to kill them. That would make me feel better."

As the thug on the left spoke, he poked the old man's body a few times with a tree branch.

The old man didn't resist, so the guy became even more aggressive.

They even picked up pebbles from the ground, intending to throw them at the old man.

Seeing this, Xu Yao was somewhat displeased and immediately stepped forward to stop the two thugs.

"I'm telling you, you two scumbags! The old man didn't do anything wrong, so why are you treating him like this?"

Upon hearing this, the two thugs immediately turned around to look at Xu Yao, their eyes full of disdain, and one of them even scratched his ear.

"No, who are you? What we do is none of your business!"

"So you think we can do whatever we want? And you're the one who comes here to meddle? Believe me, we'll take care of you too?"

The thug who said this immediately raised his right fist and made several threatening gestures at Xu Yao.

Seeing the thugs do this to him, Xu Yao's face immediately darkened. He clenched his fists and questioned the thugs.

"Don't you think your behavior is shameful? What exactly did this old man do to offend you?"

The thug scoffed disdainfully, "Can't you just find him disgusting and want to teach him a lesson? Let me tell you, you blind brat, if you dare mess with us, you'll end up the same way. Believe me or not, I'll give you a few punches right now!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao scoffed.

"Want to fight? Fine, come on! I'm all for it! I just don't know how far you two can take me."

The two thugs exchanged a glance.

"Wow, how come this kid is so arrogant?"

"Hmph, need I say more? He clearly needs to be taught a lesson. Today we'll give him a good thrashing and show him what's what."

"That's right, I'll go first."

The thug on the left gave Xu Yao a meaningful smile, then stepped forward and threw a punch at Xu Yao.

Seeing the thug's actions, Xu Yao showed no mercy. After dodging the thug's attack, he delivered the first blood to the thug's head.

With a loud bang, the thug immediately let out a scream and staggered to the ground.

The excruciating pain all over his body prevented him from even standing up.

Upon hearing this sudden turn of events, a fierce glint appeared in the eyes of the remaining thug, and his clenched fists cracked.

"You bastard, I'm not going to let you get away with this today! How dare you beat my brother like this!"

"Today I will make you fall to the ground, kneel down and kowtow to me, begging and pleading for my mercy!"

Xu Yao let out a disdainful sneer in response.

"Okay, let's give it a try. I'll try my best to meet your needs."

"court death!"

The thug roared and immediately attacked Xu Yao.

Before he could even get close to Xu Yao, Xu Yao tripped him up.

The thug lost his balance and immediately fell to the ground in a sorry state.

Before he could stand up, Xu Yao kicked him in the waist, and the thug immediately let out a scream.

"With your character, you actually bully an old man. It's really laughable."

"I'll teach you a lesson today, I won't kill you, but if I see you doing this again, I will definitely not let you off the hook."

After saying that, Xu Yao kicked the thug again.

The thug who was kicked away didn't dare to care about his companion anymore. He staggered to his feet and hurriedly fled the place.

Upon seeing this scene, Xu Yao shook his head and walked towards the old man.

Looking at the old man's body, apart from being a little dirty, he was not injured.

"Old man, you're really unlucky. You can't help but run into two scumbags while you're sleeping here."

The old man chuckled upon hearing this.

"Sigh, the world is so big, what can't we find? It's not that it's normal for two scumbags to suddenly appear."

"Anyway, I'm glad you're alright, thank you."

Xu Yao gave an embarrassed laugh.
