Eerie Night!

As dusk settled, darkness swept in like a tide!

On the rock wall of Wushan Village, a young man in black martial attire, a Wild Goose Wing Saber on his back, possessed eyes like stars in the night sky, calm and profound, far beyond his years.

This was Wei Fan, currently on patrol duty.

"The night watch missions have been getting more dangerous lately. You joining the Night Watch Team at this time, you unlucky bastard!" Wang La grumbled beside him.

"But you're lucky, kid. I'm already at the late stage of the Strength Training Realm, a pretty capable guy in the East District's Night Watch Team."

Wang La sized Wei Fan up and down, starting to brag.

"Noisy, quiet down!" Wei Fan interrupted.

"What did you say? Don't think just because you're on good terms with Vice Captain Shi, you can..." Wang La's face flushed red, unwilling to be interrupted by a rookie, and he was about to lash out.

"Shut up, haven't you noticed how unnaturally quiet it's become?" Wei Fan commanded, drawing the Wild Goose Wing Saber from his back and affixing a 'Little Flame Talisman' to it.

"Huh?" Wang La felt as if struck by lightning, then snapped back to reality. Looking at the silent, deep darkness around them, a chill ran down his spine.

Yes, it was too quiet!

It had only been nightfall for a short while, yet the darkness felt incredibly dense, like the dead of night.

"Damn it, are there going to be Monstrosities tonight?" Wang La's eyes widened in terror, his hand reaching for the steel saber at his waist, wanting to affix a Little Flame Talisman like Wei Fan.

Clang!

Just then, a silver blade light flashed.

"You!!!" Wang La's hair stood on end as he saw Wei Fan slash at him.

Splat!

A vine, attacking from behind Wang La, was severed. Deep green sap sprayed out, dripping onto the rock wall and emitting a sizzling, corrosive sound.

Soon, small holes were corroded into the rock.

A few drops splashed onto Wei Fan's arm. Wei Fan's arm immediately glowed with a dark, blue luster. Apart from his skin turning slightly red, he suffered no damage.

"You're too slow!" Wei Fan said coldly.

Wei Fan was deeply disappointed with this so-called 'veteran Night Watcher'.

"I..." Wang La's face flushed red, wanting to argue, but he had to admit he had indeed held them back.

He hadn't expected a Monstrosity to appear at this time, and he knew he had made the rookie mistake of being 'careless'.

Being lectured by a rookie, Wang La's expression turned extremely ugly.

"Damn it, I'm going to kill this Monstrosity!" Wang La slammed his steel saber onto a Little Flame Talisman, completing the weapon enchantment.

He then held his breath, concentrating fully, and scanned his surroundings.

Swish! Swish!

Two more vines shot out from the darkness, attacking both of them simultaneously, like two whips lashing out.

Wei Fan raised his saber, a silver light flashed, and the vine flying towards him was cut in two.

"Damn it, a mere Bai You, can't even withstand a single blow from a rookie? Kneel before me, a dignified late-stage Strength Training Realm expert!"

Wang La leaped high into the air and brought his saber down.

"What the?" The moment his blade touched the vine, Wang La felt like he was cutting into solid rock.

This was followed by a tremendous force, equal to his own.

"This isn't a Bai You at all!" Wang La's eyes bulged, his face filled with regret. He had been careless.

Bang!

Wang La was sent flying, crashing heavily onto the wall.

"Cough!" Wang La spat out a mouthful of blood, raising his head with difficulty. He looked towards Wei Fan and asked unwillingly, "How did you cut through such a tough vine?"

"Very easily, I just cut it!" Wei Fan said with a straight face.

He truly hadn't expected Wang La to be so weak.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two more vines attacked, both whipping towards Wei Fan.

Wei Fan dodged the pincer attack, his gaze calm as he observed the direction from which the vines originated.

Boom! Boom!

Two loud noises echoed as the vines struck where Wei Fan had been standing. The rocks exploded violently, their power terrifying.

If these blows had landed on a person, the consequences were unimaginable!

"Die!" While dodging, Wei Fan's Wild Goose Wing Saber turned into a silver light, severing the two vines once more.

"Ah!" A piercing scream came from the darkness, making one's scalp tingle.

Silence returned to the surroundings. The hidden monster stopped its attack, seemingly having suffered a heavy blow.

Wei Fan gripped the slightly warm saber, a sign the Little Flame Talisman was working.

Wei Fan also feared this unknown Monstrosity, not daring to venture deeper into the darkness.

Whoosh~ Bang!

Just then, on the left side of the city wall, an orange flare exploded, signaling for help.

Clearly, the Night Watcher in that direction had encountered a Monstrosity they couldn't handle and was in mortal danger.

"What do we do now?" Wei Fan looked at Wang La, who was lying on the ground, and asked.

"I'm injured and can't move! Come here and help me up, and get the healing medicine from my arms!"

Wang La said, his face pale, speaking with difficulty and pain.

"Alright!"

Wei Fan nodded thoughtfully and quickly walked closer.

"Heh!" From the shadows, a strange curve appeared on Wang La's lips.

But the next second, his smile froze.

"You!!!"

Wei Fan suddenly sprang up, a flash of silver, and Wang La's head flew high.

Wang La's eyes were filled with terror, confusion, and disbelief.
