Chapter 1853 - 1858: Little Earth Town
One is a powerful presence between heaven and treasure.
Really wonder what the final result will be.
Finally, two flames collided, and then a peculiar flame appeared. Little Fire was originally chaotic in color, which is a dim appearance like ordinary autumn breeze flames, but with a coolness that brought wind power, making it very unique. The two flames entwined together and eventually turned into a single flame.
"Did it succeed? Little Fire?" Lin Fei asked.
Little Fire suddenly spoke at this time: "It succeeded, but I need to recuperate for a while." After speaking, it directly entered Lin Fei’s mind.
Lin Fei felt relieved; he sensed Little Fire’s weakened spirit. Luckily, the spiritual power of the autumn breeze flame had completely vanished, no longer conscious, and he didn’t need to worry anymore.
Although it seemed simple, the fusion of two flames actually resulted in tension and fear. A single carelessness could lead to being devoured by the other, and after devouring, completely disappear, which is a very terrifying thing.
Lin Fei also breathed a sigh of relief at this time. At least during his communication with the other, he did not notice anything inappropriate, and Little Fire fell asleep.
"Really wonder how powerful Little Fire will become this time," Lin Fei asked Little Black.
Little Black smiled, "Who knows? But it’s certain, it’s definitely not as simple as a one plus one equals two arithmetic problem."
...
Since Lin Fei intended to go to Qingyun Sect, he naturally had to pass through the Great Forest. However, the continuous mountains made him walk for ten days, killing no fewer than a hundred demon beasts, averaging about ten kills a day. One day Lin Fei killed more than twenty demon beasts as they attacked him together, leaving him nowhere to hide.
Finally, Lin Fei let Little Black come out to solve so many demon beasts. Otherwise, there would be more and more, eventually forming a beast tide, which would be disastrous!
However, Lin Fei really encountered the scene of a beast tide attacking a city, and there it was happening right in front of him, a large group of demon beasts storming the city.
Lin Fei didn’t hesitate, holding the Demon Sword, he rushed up directly and quickly cut through the chaos. In the blink of an eye, he had already killed a large number, no choice, since these demon beasts had Foundation Establishment Realm, the highest realm was only mid-Nascent Soul Realm, not opponents for Lin Fei at all.
However, Lin Fei quickly discovered that the strength of the people in the city was generally low, and the highest should be the late Nascent Soul Realm strength.
This level of strength in the forest is like a huge chunk of meat, though luckily there are no powerful demon beasts in this area.
After Lin Fei dealt with those demon beasts, the residents were very grateful to Lin Fei, which is no surprise, given Lin Fei’s strength and his assistance to them. They were very thankful and wanted to invite Lin Fei into the city for a rest.
Lin Fei thought for a moment; he had been walking for more than ten days and needed to take a break, take a rest properly.
So he agreed to the few people and walked towards the city. When Lin Fei entered the city, the most powerful existence, the City Lord named Wang Xuan came to welcome Lin Fei. He could feel the powerful force in Lin Fei’s body and was more respectful. Lin Fei didn’t feel anything, just came to sit for a while and rest, nothing more.
However, Wang Xuan’s approach puzzled him.
"Residents, our hero Lin Fei will be staying in our city for a while. Shouldn’t you bring out the things from your homes to contribute to the hero?" Wang Xuan spoke to the city people.
Lin Fei shook his head, "No need, no need! I don’t need these things, I’m just resting here, you don’t have to be so enthusiastic."
Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, Wang Xuan was unwilling, saying, "That won’t do, you’re our hero. Treating you this way feels too much like we’re indebted to the hero, so we can’t do this. Listen to me, everyone, bring out the best food and drink from your homes to contribute to our hero, okay?!"
Although the City Lord’s words were passionate, the residents seemed unimpressed and silent.
"What’s wrong? Don’t you want a peaceful life? Do you want to be killed by demon beasts? If not, then contribute the best food and drink from your homes, otherwise the hero may leave here!" City Lord Wang Xuan said.
Hearing Wang Xuan’s words, the residents discussed among themselves one by one, and Lin Fei frowned. This was not his intention; he didn’t want this. The City Lord’s actions were really hard for him to agree with.
At this point, Lin Fei stood up and looked at everyone. This small town was called Little Earth Town; he saw the name written on the battle-scarred city walls when entering.
"Dear folks, residents rest assured, I’m here just to take a break, probably leaving soon. I won’t eat your food; I still have important things to handle, so I can’t stay here," Lin Fei said. He definitely didn’t want to be ’kidnapped’ here in a disguised form.
Hearing Lin Fei’s words, the City Lord Wang Xuan frowned, "Hero, do you want to turn a blind eye? Our people are in dire straits, begging you to save them. At least staying here for two or three days would be good, right? Please!" The City Lord Wang Xuan even knelt before Lin Fei?
Lin Fei quickly helped Wang Xuan up, saying, "City Lord, you absolutely should not, if the City Lord insists on this, I could indeed stay for two days, but I won’t take the residents’ things. After all, the residents need to survive, for me survival isn’t a problem."
"Good, as long as the hero is willing to protect our Little Earth Town, we’ll agree to any demand the hero says, everyone agrees, right?" Wang Xuan asked.
Upon hearing this, the residents of Little Earth Town raised their arms one by one in response to Wang Xuan.
Wang Xuan was very satisfied, then led Lin Fei towards the City Lord Mansion.
Lin Fei followed Wang Xuan, and after heading all along, finally arrived at the City Lord Mansion, but what surprised him was that the City Lord Mansion was different from other places. Wang Qiang walked along all the way, around him the houses were collapsing, some were heavily damaged, some were uninhabitable yet still had people active inside, the residents here were living a hard life.
"City Lord Wang, I wonder when you built these?"
Looking at the gorgeous and complete place with all kinds of tables and chairs, Lin Fei couldn’t help but ask what this Wang Xuan was doing this for?
"The City Lord Mansion was just built recently, it was the residents who exchanged their labor for it." City Lord Wang Xuan explained.
"Labor?" Lin Fei was puzzled, what kind of labor? He really wanted to know what kind of labor it was, and did they pay wages?
