Chapter 4210 Struck
"Ahhhh!"
He was startled and fell backwards onto the ground. He sat there staring wide-eyed at the woman as she turned into a demon and pounced towards him, her five sharp claws aimed for his heart. At that moment, he wanted to move, but his limbs were out of his control and he was unable to summon any strength. He could only sit there and watch. "Swish!"
A sharp sword potent passed through the air and struck the demon's shoulder, cutting off one of its arms. The demon roared, its sharp and piercing cry echoed through the forest and spread far away. After a while, the surrounding trees moved in the wind and made a rusting sound, as if something was passing through the trees and shaking the leaves. A sound that sounded like a howl with a hint of sharpness and chaos drifted over from not far away. As the sound drifted closer, the atmosphere in the air changed. "Why are you still sitting there? Stand up." Feng Jiu, who had come out of nowhere, glanced at Wang Yu, then looked away and glanced around them: "Didn't you say you want to gain some experience? This will be good practice for you."
Wang Yu's face turned pale and he asked: "What was that? She was clearly a woman, how did she…"
"This is a Thousand Illusions Monkey, it can also be called Human-Faced Demon. It is good at impersonating people and they transform into human form to hunt prey." Feng Jiu glanced at him and said: "Their favourite food is human hearts."
"You, you knew this from the start?" Wang Yu asked, fear lingered in his heart. That was clearly a woman, who would have expected it to actually be a demon. "Let this be your first lesson! Remember this, and don't try to be a good person, especially in this forest." Feng Jiu said lightly. She looked at Leng Shuang who was dealing with those Thousand Illusions Monkeys, and called out: "Leng Shuang, come back! Let him practise."
Leng Shuang retreated quietly, and as the Thousand Illusions Monkeys feared them, they immediately changed their target and attacked Wang Yu. Wang Yu was shocked and immediately fought back with full rigour. However, as he hadn't recovered from the previous attack, it wasn't long before his body was covered in wounds. When she saw that he wasn't able to fight them off alone, Feng Jiu shook her head and said: "Let's go!"
"Yes." Leng Shuang responded then rushed forward to help. After a while, a dozen or so Thousand Illusions Monkeys died under her sword, only one or two escaped in a panic. Wang Yu panted and sat down against a tree. He looked at Feng Jiu and Leng Shuang and said: "Thank you for saving me."
"The more dangerous a forest is, the more demons and beasts there are. There will be some you've never seen before, so the first thing you need to do here is alway be alert. In addition to being careful, there is another thing you need to remember, don't meddle in other people's business. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died." Feng Jiu said lightly, then she walked forward and said: "Let's go! We haven't even reached the real dangerous place yet!"
Wang Yu stood up, fear lingered in him. When he saw that the two of them had already walked on ahead, he immediately adjusted his state of mind and quickly followed them. Behind them, he couldn't help but ask: "Have you encountered this kind of demon in the past?"
"Yes."
Feng Jiu glanced at him and said: "There is no human breath on their bodies. If you are attentive enough, you will be able to detect it. However, you fell for it because you were obviously distracted by her naked body."
