Mountain Patrol Military Officer
Chapter 440 - 350

Chapter 440: 350

The Fierce Ape, with large fan-like hands, gently lifted the old man. Those blood-red savage demon eyes unexpectedly flashed a careful and humanized caution, seemingly afraid of injuring the elder.

This scene caused the originally almost heart-skipped beat crowd to round their eyes wide, thinking they were seeing things.

"This...."

In the next scene, the fierce ape with fangs turned outwards on its head suddenly turned around, bent its back, and carried the old man out of the Mountain God Temple.

Instantly,

"Snort"

"Hiss"

"Squeak"

A group of demons, which looked ferocious and scary in the eyes of those hunters, swarmed up.

Pythons, boars, crows, squirrels... with heads of varying sizes extended, pairs of either red or green or slick black eyeballs stared at the elderly man carefully held in the hands of the Demon Ape, making various odd and ancient sounds from their throats.

It seemed as if they were discussing something, appearing quite bizarre.

Quickly, a Demon Python opened its mouth wide, and a water-blue, pearl-sized object flew out of its mouth, leisurely floating above the old man and releasing blue ripples that enveloped his body.

At the same time, Little demon also used its powers, injecting Essence Qi into the elder’s body.

The old man’s body was then enveloped in Spirit Light and levitated.

Outside the Mountain God Temple, under the violent storm, this scene appeared particularly eerie.

"They...appear to be saving him, my goodness."

"Who exactly is this elderly man?"

Inside the Mountain God Temple, frightened and retreated near the Mountain God clay statue, the group of hunters watched all this uncertainly, deeply shocked, couldn’t help but exclaim.

They instantly speculated that the identity of the elder whom Second Elder Zhuang rescued from the mountain was no simple matter.

Is he a demon?

Or a human?

Pairs of eyes stared tightly at the unconscious elder, but even under multiple beams of Spirit Light, the elder’s face remained deathly pale, with no sign of awakening.

In this eerie calm, suddenly, a "squeak" sound resonated.

A tiny squirrel, resembling a furball, breathed out white air at the elderly man, and as if sensing something, its fur exploded like electrocution, squeaking weirdly.

Then, its body turned, and its sleek black eyeballs looked forward into the pitch-dark night, flashing with suspicion.

This calling awakened other Contracted Demons.

A javelin-sized mountain leopard, with its back arched and its demonic body tensely contoured, stepped towards the direction of the squirrel’s call, showing its fangs and emitting a low roar from its throat.

Also, a boar and a jackal, both baring their teeth, moved forward slowly forming a triangle, their ghostly green demon eyes staring into the darkness.

"Boom"

Suddenly, a thunderclap exploded.

A flash of lightning tore through the night sky, abruptly illuminating the woods.

Shockingly, outside the Mountain God Temple about thirty feet away amidst the wind and rain, a figure appeared on the snowy ground!

A pair of pale golden pupils slowly lifted their eyelids, carrying an aloof divinity, fell upon the group of demons, lingered on the little squirrel for a moment, and finally rested on the unconscious elder surrounded by the demons.

At that moment, those pale golden pupils suddenly intensified, revealing a chilling surprise!

Seeing this figure, the group of demons, as if seeing something formidable, created an uproar, then their fierce light in their eyes, like extinguished by rain, the next second, unexpectedly simultaneously prostrated to the ground, trembling.

As demons of Langdang Mountain, almost none were unaware of his presence.

While that figure quickly stepped through the group of little demons, came to the center, and lifted his hands.

Above his head, the elder’s figure slowly descended, directly caught by him.

Then, a golden vertical line suddenly opened between his brows, shooting out a golden light hitting the elder’s chest.

Quickly, a fist-sized black mark got pulled out by the golden light and then burst intensely.

Suddenly, a dragon’s roar sounded.

A green light spiraled up from his Dantian, then with a cry, it directly plunged into the elder’s body.

The next second, the elder’s originally pale face visibly reddened at a discernible speed.

After finishing all this, the person holding the skinny, frail elder in his arms, lowered his eyelids and then stepped directly into the dilapidated Mountain God Temple.

"Ah..."

As the figure entered, the broken doors and windows calmed the gushing wind and rain inside instantly.

And the hunters inside the temple watched this figure cause the group of demons to prostrate, especially when a third eye appeared on his forehead. A mere glance made them feel like they were about to die, scaring them so much that they didn’t dare look directly and exclaimed in panic, unable to retreat further, only able to huddle together.

But seeing the person enter the temple, he approached the fire, a vertical eye between his brows flying out bits of golden light like fireflies, spreading around the whole Mountain God Temple and further.

In an instant, centered on him, a nearly imperceptible fluctuation rapidly enclosed the area around the Mountain God Temple.

Then, the third intensely golden eye between his brows closed, his pale golden pupils scanned the hunters squeezed in the corner, and he spoke, his voice deep.

"Who among you dressed Old Wu’s wounds?"

The person was Chen Yuan.

He had unintentionally mastered the third skill of Heavenly Mastery Divine Power, Fetal Transformation, transforming into a swift predator among the Ten Evils, significantly increasing his speed, crossing five thousand miles in half a day to reach Langdang Mountain.

Also, because of a past causality, he discovered this Mountain God Temple and stumbled upon Old Wu being protected and healed by a group of demons.

He wanted to understand the cause and effects of this event.

Although he maintained a calm expression, his heart couldn’t suppress the murderous intent, having sealed off this area in advance because he discovered a mark left by Martial Vault inside Old Wu’s body.
