Wushan Village Surrounded by Strange Creatures!

"Wei, you!!?" Blacksmith Li, who had witnessed everything from afar, froze.

Facing Wei Fan in that state, he felt his legs go weak and his knees tremble.

"Uncle Li, I'll leave these two bodies to you!"

As Wei Fan spoke, he kicked Zhu Linyi and Zhu Wen's corpses over.

Blacksmith Li came to his senses and hurriedly nodded. He carried the two bodies to the ironmaking furnace and began burning them.

The furnace's heat was enough to burn their bones to ashes without leaving even a scrap behind.

With the night concealing the thick smoke, everything would pass without a soul knowing.

Wei Fan calmed his breath and surveyed his surroundings.

The blacksmith shop stood in a relatively secluded location. Apart from shops and stables, there were no other homes nearby.

His powerful senses detected no one else, and only then did Wei Fan relax.

Now that he had killed Zhu Linyi, the Zhu family would certainly fly into a rage. Wei Fan knew the consequences, so he needed to buy some time.

"Uncle Li, don't tell anyone about what happened tonight!" Wei Fan said gravely.

"I know! But with Zhu Yiwu's temperament, he definitely won't let this go after losing a son!"

Blacksmith Li said solemnly, "But paper can never wrap up fire forever. Wei, if things go wrong, escape Wushan Village alone and seek a broader world!"

"I won't run!" Wei Fan's lips curved up. "It's time for Wushan Village to change its skies as well!"

"?" Blacksmith Li's heart jolted.

He had never expected Wei Fan's ambitions to be so great!

"A large number of strange creatures may invade the village tonight. Uncle Li, take care of yourself."

After leaving those words behind, Wei Fan's figure melted into the night.

Along the way, Wei Fan considered how to deal with the Zhu family.

With Zhu Linyi dead, Zhu Yiwu would surely investigate to the bitter end.

No matter what, I need to move my sister somewhere safe first! Wei Fan thought.

If the Zhu family learned that Zhu Linyi had come to take revenge on him and did not see Zhu Linyi return for a long time, they would definitely suspect him.

Thus, Wei Fan had already prepared for the worst.

A few breaths later, Wei Fan returned home.

"Brother?" Wei Yingying wanted to ask why Wei Fan had returned, her slightly puzzled eyes fixed on him.

"Come with me. We're going somewhere safer!" Wei Fan picked Wei Yingying up and hurried toward the village's Outer Circle.

Even while carrying someone, Wei Fan still moved as swiftly as if flying, his speed not slowing in the slightest.

Of course, Wei Yingying was also very light. At less than eighty jin, she weighed less than the Wild Goose Wing Saber he had carried before.

In no time, Wei Fan brought Wei Yingying to the tower at the eastern district garrison.

After setting Wei Yingying down in a resting room on the second floor, Wei Fan said, "Stay here tonight. Don't run around!"

After giving it some thought, Wei Fan pasted a Little Flame Talisman onto Wei Yingying as well. It could provide a certain degree of protection.

Moreover, with Little Shadow protecting her, ordinary strange creatures would be unable to harm her.

After settling Wei Yingying in, Wei Fan strapped the Flame Cloud Saber to his back, went downstairs to the entrance of the garrison, and waited quietly.

Before long, Lu Qingshan and Shi Meng arrived as well.

In the distance, more than a dozen Night Watchers of the Strength Training Realm stood in formation, awaiting orders.

"Come on, let's go up the wall and see what's happening!" Lu Qingshan said.

"Alright!"

"Alright!"

Wei Fan and Shi Meng nodded.

"Stay where you are and await orders!" Lu Qingshan glanced at the Night Watchers, then leaped onto the wall in a few strides.

Wei Fan and Shi Meng followed him up.

At that moment, the stone-built wall had already been coated in frost. The instant they stepped on it, a chill shot from the soles of their feet straight up their backs.

All three were at least experts of the Divine Strength Realm, with powerful blood and vitality. This bit of cold remained within their endurance.

If they had been ordinary Night Watchers of the Strength Training Realm, their movements would likely have been severely affected.

"Captain, do you know what kind of strange creature caused this frost?" Shi Meng asked.

"I don't know either. If such a scene was truly caused by a strange creature, then it's definitely not something you or I can fight!" Lu Qingshan said, his expression grave.

Hearing this, Wei Fan's mood grew heavy as well.

Frost covering the entirety of Wushan Village—such a wide-ranging ability was absolutely not something an ordinary strange creature could achieve.

Wei Fan recalled the forbidden region he had entered in the wilderness before, and the lingering fear still made his heart pound.

This world still held many unknown mysteries and terrors.

Even Lu Qingshan, who had served as captain of the Night Watch Team for many years, did not know what exactly they would face in tonight's Calamity of Strangeness.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a bolt of heavenly thunder struck the ground, tearing apart the boundless night.

Under the lightning's glow, countless black shadows could vaguely be seen advancing along the horizon.

"So many?" Wei Fan and the other two drew sharp breaths.

"The strange creatures have begun invading! Quickly fire the Signal Flare!" Lu Qingshan warned.

Shi Meng triggered a Signal Flare. It shot into the sky trailing a red tail of flame, then exploded fiercely.

Immediately afterward, red Signal Flares lit up one after another in the other three directions of Wushan Village.

This meant the strange creatures lurking in the darkness had begun to move.

They were launching a full-scale invasion of Wushan Village!!!
