《Xianxia: My Junior Sisters Are Freaks!》Chapter 99: An Empty Village
Advertisement
The one standing in front of him was a disciple of the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. This was a rare opportunity!
Huang Lei, a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, said excitedly." The escorts are currently training. Fellow Daoist, why don't you give them some pointers?"
Faced with Huang Lei's invitation, Su Xing could not help but be stunned.
He had come here to understand the situation of the demon race, not to teach disciples.
however, these men were forthright and hospitable, and their personalities were quite kind. If he had the time, he could give them some pointers.
However, the most important thing now was to find out what the demons were up to, so as to prevent the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect from falling into their trap after he left.
Just as Su Xing was thinking of how to decline, Huang Sheng glared at the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator earlier.
"Fellow Daoist Su and I still have important matters to discuss. You take the rest to continue training and don't let anyone disturb us."
"Yes, chief!"
Perhaps realizing his rudeness, Huang Lei scratched his head with a silly smile.
They walked past the courtyard.
Not long after, under Huang Sheng's lead, the two of them arrived at a hall.
Su Xing went straight to the point.
"Chief Huang, I've heard some of the things you said in front of the market today. I wonder if you can be more specific?"
"This..."
Huang Sheng pondered for a moment, his face full of hesitation.
Before he knew Su Xing's identity, he naturally wanted Su Xing to deal with those demons. But now that he knew that Su Xing was a disciple of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect, he was somewhat wavering.
"Since fellow Daoist is a disciple of the Blackheaven Sword Sect, I should have told you everything I know. However, the strength of those demons is too terrifying."
"I think it's better this way. Fellow Daoist, write a letter to inform the experts of the Sect. When the time comes, we will work together to capture all those demons. What do you think?"
Su Xing understood immediately.
It seemed that Huang Sheng thought that he was young and was worried that he was too inexperienced. If he were to die here, it would not be easy to explain to his Sect.

However, Su Xing was already at the half-step Human Immortal Realm, and there were only a handful of people in the entire Eastern continent who could fight with him. If he was really no match for them, then it would be a waste to call so many people here.
Moreover, Su Xing really did not care about those small fish and shrimps of the demon race. He came here because he had sensed a strange aura and wanted to see what the demon race was doing.
After thinking for a moment, Su Xing put on a bold tiger's skin and said.
"If that demon really harmed people, we cultivators naturally can't sit idly by. Moreover, my Master is also nearby. When the time comes, he will also make a move."
This young man's master had also come. This was great!
When Huang Sheng heard this, his eyes could not help but light up.
As a bodyguard who had roamed the world for many years, he had already cultivated half of the exquisite heart of Seven Wonders. He quickly deduced a lot of information from what Su Xing said.
He could no longer see through Su Xing's cultivation, so as his Master, he was naturally not an ordinary person. The elders of a large sect like the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect were at least Nascent Soul cultivators. Presumably, master Su Xing was also a Nascent Soul stage mighty figure.
It seemed that Yellowstone town was saved.
Thinking of this, Huang Sheng said happily.
"Young fellow Daoist, you are so righteous. On behalf of everyone in Yellowstone Town, I thank fellow Daoist for your help!"
"Chief Huang, there's no need to be so polite. I have something important to attend to, so I can't stay in Yellowstone town any longer. You'd better seize the time to tell me the specific situation!"
Why did these people like to kneel down to others so often? Did they not know that if they did not do it well, their lives would be shortened?
Not only was their cultivation extraordinary, even their temperament was also outstanding.
Huang Sheng looked at the handsome youth in front of him in surprise, and the respect in his heart deepened.

Hearing that Su Xing would not stay in Yellowstone town for too long, Huang Sheng did not dare to tarry any longer. He quickly told him about his journey as if he was pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
"I remember that it happened half a month ago. At that time, the Huang Escort Agency accepted a sect's goods delivery mission. When they passed by the small villages around Yellowstone town, something strange happened."
"We passed by several villages in a row, but we didn't see a single person. When we encountered such a strange phenomenon, we didn't dare to stay any longer, so we continued to travel through the night..."
As he listened, the expression on Su Xing's face started to become strange.
When he heard that many villages were empty, he asked.
"You're saying that many villagers disappeared for no reason, so you took a detour into another village?"
Huang Sheng nodded with a pale face.
Recalling the strange scene at that time, his voice began to sound a little low.
"I'm not afraid that you'll laugh at me, fellow Daoist. Being a bodyguard for so many years has taught me to be cautious. No matter where I go, I will remain vigilant and not dare to slack off in the slightest."
Su Xing expressed his understanding.
As the saying goes, caution is worth a thousand years. As a bodyguard, being cautious was a good thing.
After all, someone was willing to pay them to escort the goods, so the goods naturally had their value. The valuable objects would inevitably attract the attention of the thieves. If the thieves were to catch sight of them, not only would the goods be lost.., they might even lose their lives.
Huang Sheng continued.
"That night, the sky was already dark. We finally found an inhabited village to stay in. After placing the goods properly, I brought a few escorts to patrol around the village. After circling around and finding nothing unusual, we returned to the village. However, when we returned to the village, everyone had actually disappeared into thin air, just like those uninhabited villages from before."
"We searched up and down for a long time, but we didn't find any traces of them!"
"And what's even stranger is that the goods we stored in the village were not missing at all. However, other than the escorts who were patrolling with me, the rest of the escorts and the villagers in the village all mysteriously disappeared together."
So many people had disappeared without leaving a single trace.
If they were really from the demon race, then what were they trying to do by taking away these villagers?
Hearing this, Su Xing frowned.
"You left the village for a long time?"
"I remember clearly the time it was simply the time it took for one incense stick to burn!"
The people of the demon race were crafty and strange.
The time it took for one incense stick to burn was enough for them to do a lot of things. The disappearance of a large number of villagers must have something to do with them.
Huang Sheng picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp.
He composed himself and seemed to still have some lingering fear in his heart.
"The cliff. Later, I found those missing people at the edge of the cliff!"
It turned out that when he saw that everyone had disappeared, Huang Sheng had sensed that something might have happened, so he asked the remaining escorts to continue escorting the goods to deliver the mission while he searched for the missing people nearby.
When he found a cliff, the scene in front of him stunned him.
On the edge of a cliff not far from the small village, dozens of black-robed men emitting black smoke were chasing the terrified villagers together. The black-robed men were constantly transporting these missing people to the bottom of the cliff in batches through flying magic treasures, and the dozen missing escorts of their escort agency were among the crowd.
Digesting Huang Sheng's information, they were even more certain of the identity of those people. They were demons.

Apex Immortal: a LitRPG system rampage
"Across the multiverse where the contest for power is the only constant, only a handful have succeeded in reaching the ultimate heights of ascendency and gained the title Apex Immortal. Dominus is one of them, unsurpassed in overwhelming violence, feared across universes. Now, memories locked and stranded far away from everything he’d built, Dominus will face enemies that will challenge even his powers and discover that change is more difficult than destruction." I’ve been writing fiction on and off for the last decade and I’ve always wondered how a peak immortal (or an OP superhero) would single handedly conquer a world that mirrors our own in all of its complexity. As a politics nerd, this is my attempt at answering that question using Machiavelli’s “The Prince” as the primary playbook. The “monsters” are entire political systems with entrenched culture. Expect many versions of real world political systems (and cultures) to be on the hit list. The MC has to successfully institute regime and cultural change without engaging in wholesale genocide and causing the state to fail. Expect things to go wrong pretty quickly as escalating and cascading political and economic effects rapidly go out of control. Methods deployed are not for the faint hearted.
