Bold Witch, Don’T Hurt My Husband

Chapter 42 Sword Mom, are you there?

Early the next morning, the four people who had meditated all night quietly left the inn.

Nothing strange happened during the night, but Xia Fan always felt like he was being watched. That feeling was quite uncomfortable, like when he was in school and always felt like the class teacher would appear at the back door window. When you have that feeling, congratulations, the class teacher has been watching you for a long time.

However, he didn't mention this feeling, after all, it was not convincing based solely on his feelings. When he wanted to ask about the Cloud Sword, he found that the little sword didn't pay attention to him, and even "Wuwa" was silent.

No one said much, and they didn't ride horses. They headed straight for Huangning Village.

Huangning Village was not far from Fangyang County, only about twenty miles away. With their speed, they quickly arrived nearby.

"The smell of blood is so strong!" Not far from Huangning Village, the group stopped, and Ding Peng frowned and said.

Actually, they all felt that something was wrong even without him saying it!

Seeing this, Xia Fan directly used the secret technique Spirit Ascension. When he opened his eyes, he saw rolling corpse energy and that nauseating strange feeling.

"No one is alive, they're all dead!" Xia Fan said with a heavy expression.

Even a cultivator like him would feel uncomfortable with this kind of corpse energy, let alone ordinary people.

In theory, even if all the people in such a village died, the corpse energy shouldn't be so heavy.

"What should we do?" Wang Lian asked Ding Peng.

"Leave someone outside and go in to check the situation! Xia Fan, you stay!" Ding Peng said.

"No, we shouldn't split up. If there's danger, splitting up is equal to death!" Xia Fan quickly retorted.

If he stayed behind, it seemed safe, but in reality, if there was danger, he would be the first to die. After all, he was alone.

Of course, he wasn't afraid since he had the Cloud Sword, but it was still necessary to be cautious. If there was real danger, he might be able to save a few lives with the Cloud Sword. After all, although Ding Peng didn't like to talk, he still took care of him.

"Let's go together. It's better to have someone to watch out for each other," Zhong Yue said.

After thinking about it, Ding Peng agreed, and the four of them revealed their weapons and slowly approached. Xia Fan also held his sword in his hand.

As they got closer, the smell of blood became stronger, even to the point of being nauseating. This made everyone furrow their brows.

"Be careful, something doesn't feel right!"

Although there was no evidence, Xia Fan still reminded them, mainly because that nauseating and ominous feeling had intensified here.

The three nodded in understanding, and Ding Peng whispered, "If we're in a desperate situation, don't try to save each other. Break through individually and regroup at our sect!"

With that said, the four of them had already entered the village entrance. Suddenly, that ominous feeling intensified. It seemed that his spiritual power was extremely repulsed by this aura.

But seeing that the others hadn't noticed, he didn't say anything. As they slowly went deeper, they indeed didn't find a single living person. Each household in the village was empty, and some tables even had spoiled food on them, clearly indicating that something was wrong.

The more this was the case, the more uneasy they felt. Finally, the four of them arrived at the central big locust tree in the village and stared wide-eyed at the hundreds of dried corpses hanging from it.

"Evil spirits are at work, damn it!" Ding Peng said in a deep voice.

After all, this kind of phenomenon was definitely not man-made. It must be the work of evil spirits, and the opponent's cultivation level was not low.

Just then, the sky suddenly darkened. It was clearly early morning, but the sun in the sky turned blood red, followed by a chilling and eerie laughter.

"Giggle~"

"Once you're here, don't leave. The blood of cultivators is quite nourishing!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly turned their heads and saw a human-faced spider the size of a grinding disc perched on a nearby house, smiling at them.

"Amitabha, the four benefactors should leave!" a fat monk with a bare chest laughed from the other side.

The incident happened suddenly, but the four of them reacted quite quickly.

"There's an ambush!" With Ding Peng's shout, the four immediately separated and took up positions to guard each side.

"Not good, it's a Demonic Cultivator, everyone be careful!" It was only at this moment that Zhong Yue and the others noticed the ominous aura emanating from this person and demon.

"Demonic Cultivator?" Xia Fan was a bit puzzled, so Zhong Yue quickly explained, "They have been tainted by malevolent power, their hearts have been possessed by demons. In any case, be careful, they are a group of lunatics!"

"Oh, little girl, you know quite a bit. I really like you, sister!" The spider-faced person licked their crimson lips.

The two who emerged put great pressure on the four. The spider-faced person had just entered the Gold Core stage and their aura was unstable, while the chubby monk's cultivation was not high, only at the Mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. With the four of them, victory was not impossible.

"Retreat, I'll hold them off!" Ding Peng shouted, and then the four quickly moved towards the village entrance.

Seeing them trying to escape, the spider-faced person's eight legs moved slightly and immediately blocked their path, saying, "You haven't finished talking, why are you running away?"

"Xia Fan, I'll leave the one behind to you!"

Saying that, Ding Peng and the two women activated their secret techniques and rushed towards the spider-faced person. All three of them were at the Late-stage of Foundation Establishment, and with the boost from their secret techniques, they were not afraid to fight.

At this moment, Xia Fan remained calm. He had a life-saving trump card, the Yunjian sword, which had always been behind him, giving him a damn sense of security.

But even so, he couldn't afford to be careless. With one hand holding the sword, Sword Intent immediately filled the air, and then he activated his secret technique, rushing towards the chubby monk not far away.

When the monk realized that he was being targeted by a powerful Sword Intent, he was immediately shocked, but Xia Fan didn't give him a chance to react and struck with all his might.

"Clang~"

A sharp sword qi erupted, and in an instant, the chubby monk was cut in half. At this point, everyone was shocked by his appearance.

At this moment, Xia Fan's cultivation at the peak of Foundation Establishment was undoubtedly revealed, and coupled with his unstoppable Sword Intent, he was even more dominant than the spider-faced person.

"Young Junior Brother, you..." Zhong Yue looked incredulous.

But she was immediately knocked away by the spider-faced person's spider legs and crashed into a dilapidated thatched house.

"Sister!" Xia Fan shouted.

The spider-faced person turned around and looked at Xia Fan, saying, "Damn it, there's actually another sword cultivator who has mastered Sword Intent, tsk!"

"The useless monk is dead, stop watching the show and get to work!"

As soon as the words fell, three more people slowly appeared. They were the short mummified man, the green-robed Taoist, and a young swordsman.

As soon as the three appeared, Xia Fan and the others' expressions immediately turned ugly, because the newly arrived three had high cultivations. One was in the Gold Core stage, and the other two were at the peak of Foundation Establishment.

For their small team without a single Gold Core cultivation, this was undoubtedly a fatal blow. If there was only one person, Xia Fan might still have a chance to fight back with his incredibly sharp Sword Intent, but now it was impossible.

At this time, Zhong Yue also climbed out of the ruins and took a look at the situation around her, her mood sinking to the bottom.

"Young Junior Brother, I'm sorry!" she said.

At this moment, Xia Fan stood steadily in front of the four of them. He didn't feel too desperate in his heart, after all, he had many trump cards. This should be a small-scale situation for him.

He should be able to handle one Gold Core cultivator, but the problem was that there were two of them, plus two at the peak of Foundation Establishment. How could he ensure the safety of the others? He couldn't just call his wife to come up!

"Jianma, are you there?"

With a 'buzz' on his back, Xia Fan felt the message transmitted by the Yunjian sword, which was probably saying, "As an immortal sword, I won't kill those below the Third Realm!"
