I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 117 - 29: A Spirit Monster That Has Lived 1,000 Years? (4/5)

"Mountain Village?"

"Isn't this the village that came to borrow seeds a while back?"

When Li Boyang soared clouds and mist, following the water vein to the village mentioned by the Human-faced Fish, he realized he knew this village.

Though some time had passed since Uncle Lu went to Li Family Village to borrow seeds.

Yet most of the fields outside the village still appeared neglected and overgrown.

The villagers of Mountain Village were merely working like puppets in the fields.

But such rough labor, how could it possibly sustain those precious rice shoots?

"That fox... truly damning."

A flicker of anger flashed in Li Boyang's eyes unintentionally, he disliked this feeling.

Because that fox paid no regard to the life and death of this village—even though she herself was now hiding in it.

"Who are you?"

Watching Li Boyang approach closer to the village entrance.

Those puppet-like villagers finally noticed the appearance of this Red-haired Child.

Thus, a leading man first broke from that puppet-like state, blocking Li Boyang directly.

"This is Mountain Village, outsiders halt!"

"Who exactly are you? Why have you come to our village?"

His tone and demeanor were just like a normal person, even his voice carried a subtle sense of anger.

However, Li Boyang saw through the man's essence at a glance—just a puppet with a bit of autonomy.

Because the man's pupils hadn't moved from the start, like those in deep slumber.

"Quite a quick reaction, are you trying to use these people to stall for time?"

The Celestial Destiny Bone Armor gently spun in Li Boyang's hand, no longer glancing at the man.

Whoosh!

With a casual flick of his coat, Sleep Bugs flew out from Li Boyang's sleeve.

To these Sleep Bugs, who fed on Evil Qi from a young age.

This red fur coat, woven from Li Boyang's hair, was their ideal home.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

At the moment the Sleep Bugs appeared.

Li Boyang could clearly see the villagers collectively step back.

This synchronized movement further exposed the nature of the villagers.

Though the villagers reacted quickly, they couldn't outpace the Sleep Bugs meticulously cultivated by Li Boyang.

Conversely, Li Boyang confirmed a certain suspicion in his mind through the villagers' reaction.

"Even know about Sleep Bugs?"

"Seems your knowledge of that ancient witch is quite extensive?"

Taking large strides over the fainted villagers, Li Boyang knew the fox hiding behind the scenes could hear him.

"Let me guess, did you learn about Huai River Witch from your elders?"

"Or have you seen that witch with your own eyes?"

Glancing at the back of the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor, Li Boyang couldn't help but be surprised.

"Oh?"

"You've actually seen the living Huai River Witch?"

"So you're a spirit monster that's lived for over a thousand years? That's somewhat unexpected!"

As Li Boyang's steps gradually approached the village.

The swarms of Sleep Bugs nearly indiscriminately felled all villagers attempting to block him.

Fortunately, despite their aggressive appearance, the Sleep Bugs were clever, obedient, and well-behaved.

Until Li Boyang issued further instructions.

The Sleep Bugs simply put the villagers to sleep, without causing additional casualties.

As Li Boyang led the Sleep Bugs into the village, the originally tranquil streams on either side suddenly stirred with ripples.

"(Human-faced Fish language) Quick, quick, quick, take all these people away!"

"(Human-faced Fish language) Queen said, these people should not be harmed!"

"(Human-faced Fish language) Great Fate Master is mighty, if only I were one of those Sleep Bugs!"

...

Accompanied by incomprehensible noises and water sounds.

The Human-faced Fish quickly crawled out of the streams, dragging the fainted villagers to safer places.

At the widest part of the stream, a giant Human-faced Fish squeezed out, slowly surfacing.

This was the queen of the group, Red Fish—the Water God of Mountain God Reservoir.

Red Fish knew clearly, this small human village was on the brink of a looming battle.

Though Red Fish was powerless to join the fight, she was willing to share some burdens for Li Boyang.

For instance, helping Li Boyang protect these humans he deeply cherished and valued...

"(Human-faced Fish language) You must be safe! Great Destiny!"

...........................

At the same time, within a cellar in Mountain Village.

"It's... coming..."

"You're... doomed this time..."

The Spider Queen, tortured to an inch of her life, stubbornly uttered her final weak voice.

Beside the Spider Queen, the mound of spider carcasses was horrifying.

As those spider carcasses weren't simply killed but forcibly drained of life and died.

Every spider here was merely a tenth of its original size.

From flesh to bones, they were withered beyond recognition.

Even the Spider Queen herself had shrunk by more than half in size.

Truthfully, if the Spider Queen hadn't possessed the ability to summon spiders, her fate wouldn't be much better than those drained spiders.

Nonetheless, the life-drained Spider Queen had reached her limits.

Even for a spirit monster with life force as tenacious as the Spider Queen, enduring till now was an unbelievable miracle.

"Humph! Look at you, as if you've seen a savior..."

"So what if that Red-haired Child really comes?"

"Do you expect him to save you?"

Nesting among the dried corpses, the white fox slowly opened her eyes, her six tails constantly swaying.

Amid the six tails, a seventh, slightly shorter tail was gradually growing.

"I..."

With the fox's reminder, the light in the Spider Queen's eyes dimmed instantly.

But soon, the Spider Queen mocked with her weak tone.

"I die... doesn't matter..."

"As long as I can... see you... buried with me..."

The Spider Queen never doubted the power of the Red-haired Ghost God, who could repel the Five Directions Gods with a single strike.

The fox before her wasn't even the legendary auspicious Nine-tailed Fox, what qualification did she have to oppose that Red-haired Ghost God?

"I'll wait for you... in the Netherworld..."
