Chapter 31: Hunting for Monsters He is good

at keeping the snow moving. Chao Jianxue pushed aside a bamboo leaf that blocked his view and called Yu Wei to look over.

"Is that a monster?"

In front of the bamboo where they were standing, a brown-black wild boar was digging in the snow with its front hooves digging happily. There

was only a series of hoof-shaped footprints on the snow path, turning crookedly from the other side.

Yu Wei bent down to take a look and said, "It's not a monster, just an ordinary wild boar."

Chao Jianxue touched his chin and thought, "Have you ever eaten wild boar, junior brother?"

"..."

Yu Wei looked down at the monster hunting card and recited a formula. The direction on the card disappeared and reappeared. After refreshing, the direction changed to another direction.

The two of them landed lightly on the thin bamboo, which flicked off the accumulated snow and sprinkled it on their shoulders and heads.

Chao Jianxue brushed off the snow particles and saw Yu Wei in front of him with a ball of broken snow on the top of his head. He seemed not to notice it. It looked like a small animal with snow on his head.

He didn't remind him out of spite, so Yu Wei just walked forward in the snow. After walking for a while, Yu Wei suddenly stopped and said, "It seems to be raining?"

He looked over with a confused look, and was met with Chao Jianxue's mischievous smile.

Then he raised his hand and touched his hair, which was already wet.

Chao Jianxue said happily, "Junior brother, why are you so slow? Isn't it cold?"

Obviously being teased, Yu Wei said expressionlessly, "I was only observing the demonic aura and indeed did not notice it. But senior brother, hunting is no trivial matter. Although demons in the human world are rare, they are cunning and difficult to train. Senior brother, you'd better be careful."

"Hey--" Chao Jianxue muttered, "I just laughed at you, but you had to use three or five words to shut me up. After all, I'm a golden elixir, it's not like I can't beat everything."

"Brother, have you ever fought against a demon?"

Chao Jianxue paused: "No."

"Brother, have you ever seen a demon that reveals its true form?"

Chao Jianxue choked: "...No."

He didn't want Yu Wei to ask any more questions, the results were all "no", "no", and "never again" anyway. So he walked side by side with him, helped brush off the snow on his shoulders, and said with a grin, "Thank you for your hard work, junior brother."

After spending many days together, Chao Jianxue had already figured out Yu Wei's personality. As long as he said some nice words and made a gentle expression, this junior brother would take care of him even if he didn't say anything.

In one word, he

is kind. At least for now.

Sure enough, Yu Wei immediately stopped talking. His eyelashes trembled, as if a butterfly was about to flap its wings and fly out.

Walking along the monster-hunting sign for this section, they unexpectedly encountered another wild boar. They had passed by peacefully, and Chao Jianxue looked at it curiously. I don't know what delicious food there is in the mountains that makes these wild boars grow so fat and strong.

Just as he was about to pass by, the wild boar suddenly raised its head, with typical European-style big double eyelids, and looked into Chao Jianxue's eyes.

Its four hooves began to exert force.

Chao Jianxue felt something was wrong, swallowed his saliva, and pulled Yu Wei's sleeve: "Junior brother..."

Before he could finish his words, the wild boar rushed towards them.

At that moment, Chao Jianxue completely forgot his identity as a golden elixir, and also forgot Ming Qianli who was ready to go on his arm.

He shouted in surprise, pulled Yu Wei and ran forward.

Yu Wei: "Wait..."

The sword only appeared in Yu Wei's palm in time, and there was no time to kill the wild boar. Just

now he was still saying "It's not like I can't beat everything", but now he was being chased by a wild boar. Chao Jianxue slapped his face, and in a flash, he had already jumped to the top of the tree with Yu Wei, panting and stroking his chest.

The wild boar hit the tree head-on, causing the treetop to shake.

"Fortunately, fortunately, we didn't get hit." He breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Wei still put away the sword and looked at him quietly. After a while, he turned his head, raised the corner of his lips slightly, and chuckled.

Chao Jianxue's face flushed, and he pretended to be nothing and stepped on another branch.

"I think it's safer up there, little junior brother, what do you think?"

Fortunately, Yu Wei didn't spoil the show, and nodded in agreement.

The two of them shuttled through the snowy forest, and when they arrived at a certain place, the spiritual light of the monster-hunting card was much brighter.

Chao Jianxue flew down first, and met the eyes of an old man with a hunched back on the ground.

The old man was shocked, pointing at them in astonishment, "immortal" for a long time, and couldn't say a word.

Judging from his clothes, he was probably a hunter nearby, with a bundle of brown-black firewood on his back and a blunt axe in his hand.

Yu Wei walked up and said in a businesslike tone: "Old man, have you seen anything unusual?"

Chao Jianxue looked around, thinking that he and Yu Wei were probably the most unusual here.

It's just that the monster-hunting card usually doesn't make mistakes.

When he came here, he was worried that the monster-hunting card would point him out, which was obviously unfounded. The half of his demon blood was dormant in his body, and he himself did not know how to see it.

At this time, the card was constantly flashing with spiritual light, and there was no doubt that the demon was nearby.

The old man trembled for a long time and said, "No."

He also had a bundle of thick hemp ropes on his shoulder. Yu Wei asked, "What are you doing?"

"Yesterday, I set up a few clamps in the mountains. I was just going to see if I caught anything..."

The old man pointed behind him, and the spiritual light of the demon-hunting card was also pointing in that direction.

Yu Wei said seriously, "Don't go over yet."

The old man saw something from the things in his hand and asked fearfully, "But there are demons?"

"What do you mean?" Chao Jianxue looked at him as if he knew something.

"Oh... Two immortals, I just heard that someone seemed to have seen it..."

According to him, the farmers in the village who went up the mountain had seen it several times. They said that they saw strange lights at night, and they all said it was ghost lights. They were scared like anything, afraid that they would die, and hid at home and dared not come out.

"Whether it is or not, we will know at a glance." Yu Wei nodded at him, looking very safe.

They walked into the woods. The forest road here became deep and dark, and there was indeed a ghostly atmosphere. Gradually, a small whimpering sound came out, which was blown by the wind.

The snow fell with a sound, falling from the sky.

The feet stepped on the ground, making a creaking sound.

The so-called ball of light turned its face and looked at them elegantly and calmly.

Chao Jianxue looked at the white deer in front of him in surprise. It stepped on the mysterious light and its horns were colorful. There was nothing that was not weird, and nothing that was not noble.

"Deer demon." Yu Wei's voice fell, and the sword light flashed.

The white deer tilted its head to dodge, and the colorful phantom light swallowed the sword light of Wei Yijian. It took a few steps back, revealing the trap set by the hunter behind it.

A rabbit was caught in the hind legs. It must have struggled all night. At this time, it lay on the ground dying, with its scarlet eyes half closed.

Yu Wei Nian Jue fixed its body, and was about to draw his sword, but Chao Jianxue grabbed his hand and said, "Wait!"

He looked carefully at the eyes of the white deer, which were wet, with pity and pity, as well as confusion.

For some reason, perhaps it was due to the connection between the half of the blood, or perhaps it was due to the uneasiness deep in Chao Jianxue's heart.

He said, "It seems to have no ill intentions."

Yu Wei frowned and said, "Demons are good at disguising and hiding, senior brother, don't be fooled."

But Chao Jianxue didn't feel any blood from the deer monster. The only source of blood was the rabbit with its leg injured.

"Shouldn't we distinguish which monsters should be killed and which should not be killed when killing monsters?"

Yu Wei explained, "Monsters are all disasters in the human world. Ordinary people have no power to fight against them and cannot resist the threat."

Chao Jianxue couldn't agree with it for a while.

"It didn't show any aggression, so how could it be a disaster?"

Yu Wei was also puzzled: "Senior brother, don't you know the principle of 'preventing trouble before it happens'?"

Chao Jianxue was not unaware, he just felt that this deer monster had no evil nature at all, and he hadn't heard the old man say that it would harm people, but he killed it without asking any questions. Isn't it a bit hasty.

But the immortal sect has a rule here. If the relationship between human cultivators and demon cultivators was still harmonious a few hundred years ago, things could still be discussed, but the current situation is that as long as it is a demon, it will be killed without mercy.

Yu Wei took a step forward, and the sword light turned into the phantom of more than a dozen swords, shooting at the deer demon.

Suddenly, the light scattered into light spots, and the clamp on the ground clicked open at some point. The rabbit got angry, dragged its injured leg, jumped far away, and got into the snow and could not be seen clearly.

After such an incident, Chao Jianxue couldn't help but think solemnly.

He felt sad for the death of the rabbit and felt that Yu Wei had a bit of the shadow of Fahai You Don't Understand Love. If his half-demon identity was exposed one day, he was afraid that Yu Wei would also kill him without caring about the friendship of the old fellow disciples.

There was no movement from the demon-hunting card. Chao Jianxue couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a grudge against demons?"

It was the same when he came out of the secret realm before. When he suspected that he was a demon cultivator, Yu Wei really killed him.

Yu Wei didn't say anything.

Chao Jianxue kicked a stone on the ground, and the stone rolled to Yu Wei's heel.

He didn't expect Yu Wei to answer him, but Yu Wei turned around and said forbearingly: "My parents were killed by demon cultivators."

With just one sentence, Chao Jianxue was stunned.

The rare fierceness on him disappeared in an instant, and Yu Wei immediately returned to the appearance of a cold fairy. He said softly: "The matter has passed, senior brother, don't ask again."

After walking a few steps, he suddenly said: "I have never told anyone about this matter, senior brother, don't tell anyone, okay?"

Although it was a negotiating tone, it sounded like a threat...

Chao Jianxue was sweating like crazy in his heart.

He should have thought of it earlier, the tragic life experience that the protagonist must have.

Yu Wei has a grudge against demons, so his half-demon identity has no future at all. He can

only work harder before it is exposed.

Chao Jianxue then changed the subject and said: "What does the Juling Kingdom look like?"

Yu Wei led the way, and the two climbed to the top of the mountain and looked into the distance. Finally, a corner of the scenery of the city in the human world was revealed in the white snow.

It was only a small country, with earthen walls and dark red flags fluttering in the wind. The houses in the city were neatly arranged, and curls of smoke were rising.

It was not rich, but peaceful enough. If you grow up here without illness or disaster, you should be able to live an ordinary life.

When going down the mountain, the monster hunting card that had been silent for a long time vibrated again. Chao Jianxue watched a shadow leap quickly past their eyes, and Yu Wei chased after it.

He didn't chase it where he was, because Yu Wei would be back soon anyway.

But soon, Chao Jianxue realized that there was something unusual in the air. Some kind of strange atmosphere made him tense all over, and his skin trembled.

He called Ming Qianli to his side and shouted loudly: "Who is sneaking there!"

The atmosphere was almost suffocating.

A horizontal light suddenly slashed, and Chao Jianxue's scalp numbed.

He dodged quickly, and Ming Qianli's sword kept ringing, and he backhanded to block countless sword shadows coming from all directions.

The attacker never showed his face from beginning to end, but the sword shadow became a net that enveloped him, forcing him to dodge and unable to find a way out.

Chao Jianxue had no choice but to activate Qianli Mingxin, and the golden elixir spun rapidly. The spiritual power exploded in the body inch by inch, condensing on Ming Qianli, and finally broke a tiny hole in the airtight sword shadow.

He squeezed out of the hole, but his feet were empty.

The sword shadow just now actually forced him to the face of the cliff.

Chao Jianxue fell down.
