Chapter 699: Chapter 0699: Seeking the Demon
As soon as Luo Yang asked, Tan Shengmei knew he was referring to that incident.
"What’s wrong?"
"I need to go face him."
Luo Yang had long expressed a desire to settle accounts with Qi Xiangtian.
Tan Shengmei could understand his feelings.
However, it was such a coincidence that she really felt Luo Yang was putting on an act for her.
"We’ll eat and look at the house before going!" Tan Shengmei demanded.
The matter with Qi Xiangtian couldn’t be delayed for even a moment.
Since yesterday, a whole day had passed, and she didn’t know whether the Half Demon had fully awakened yet.
"Wife, tomorrow, let’s eat together," Luo Yang said earnestly.
"No! Right now... Mhm mhm..."
Tan Shengmei struggled for a bit but eventually calmed down.
After their lips parted, Luo Yang caressed Tan Shengmei’s cheek and said, "You know how dangerous that person is. Only if I find him first can I prevent the situation from worsening. Listen to me, tomorrow, if I don’t eat with you, I am not a human!"
Seeing Luo Yang swear, she knew he really had important matters to handle.
Although extremely reluctant, Tan Shengmei had to accept it.
"Fine, but this is an exception. If you make excuses again tomorrow, I won’t let you off!" Tan Shengmei playfully scolded.
"Wife, then you explain it to Mom and Dad, okay?"
With that, Luo Yang pecked her red lips.
After bidding farewell to Tan Shengmei, he drove towards his destination.
Luo Yang wanted the Left and Right Protectors, Zhang Jing, and the grandparent-grandchild duo to meet at the crossroads and then head to the small village together.
"Where are we going?" Hong Jiaxin asked curiously.
"I’ve found it!" Luo Yang answered.
Knowing they were going to confront the founder of the Ying Zhao Yan Xing Sect, the Half Demon, Hong Jiaxin felt both nervous and curious.
"Just the two of us?"
"No. There are five others."
Luo Yang explained that Zhang Jing and others were also going.
Finally, he added, "Squad leader, this doesn’t involve you, you don’t have to do anything. Just stay far away. If you see we can’t handle the Half Demon, you’d better run."
Initially, Luo Yang didn’t want to bring Hong Jiaxin, but there was no better place to keep her safe.
Keeping her close was even safer.
"Am I someone who fears death!?" Hong Jiaxin raised her mouth corner.
"Squad leader, if something happens to you, I can’t explain it to your parents," Luo Yang said.
Having promised to protect Hong Jiaxin efficiently, Luo Yang didn’t want to break his word.
Hong Jiaxin knew that Luo Yang was extremely concerned for her and appreciated it, although she wasn’t good at expressing her feelings and kept them to herself.
"Just be careful yourself, you don’t need to worry about me!" Hong Jiaxin said indifferently.
Leaving the county town, the car traveled for about 10 minutes and then arrived at the national highway crossroads of the township.
The Left and Right Protectors, Zhang Jing, and the grandparent-grandchild duo were already waiting there.
Traveling from Hongyun Town to the crossroads was faster for them than Luo Yang’s journey from the county town.
Lang Yifeng, driving a van to deliver people, also wanted to come and broaden his horizons.
Luo Yang pulled Lang Yifeng aside and whispered, "It’s better if you don’t go."
Actually, this was for Lang Yifeng’s own good.
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat, and one only has one life.
"Master, please let me come. I might not be of much help, but I can at least do some small things for you," Lang Yifeng pleaded.
In movies, TV shows, or books, Lang Yifeng had seen Demon countless times.
Now, hearing that a real Half Demon existed, he felt it would be a pity not to see it.
"Well, when we get to the foot of the mountain, just wait for us below. If we don’t return for a long time, call the police," Luo Yang instructed.
"Okay, Master," Lang Yifeng said with great excitement.
Afterward, Luo Yang called over the Left and Right Protectors among others to discuss strategies.
"I asked a friend to check, and Qi Xiangtian’s phone is in that village. He should be there too," Luo Yang said.
Glancing around, Luo Yang continued.
"But more than a day has passed, it’s possible the Half Demon isn’t there anymore."
He paused.
"Once we encounter the Half Demon, what should we do?"
This matter, Zhang Jing and the grandchild had the most authority, being specialists in their field, they knew what they were talking about.
Zhang Jing pretended to be clueless, passing the authority to speak to Grandma Liu.
Indeed, Grandma Liu, acting as Little Huizi’s mouthpiece, said, "If the Half Demon is fully awake, it might be hard for us to exterminate it. But since it’s a Half Demon, with so many of us, maybe we can kill it."
These words could also be considered as coming from Little Huizi.
"Then let’s get in the cars," Luo Yang said.
The group split into two cars, with Zhang Jing moving to Luo Yang’s car.
Soon, they arrived at the foot of the mountain, and to reach mid-mountain, they had to walk up a narrow, twisty path, thankfully paved with stone steps, which made it slightly easier.
Lang Yifeng stayed in the car waiting for news.
The rest followed Luo Yang up the mountain; the sky was clear and bright, and those unaware of the details might think the group was just there to exercise.
From a distance, they could already see the houses of the small village.
Before coming, they had only considered whether the Half Demon was fully awake and had not considered if Qi Xiangtian had any help.
If, apart from the Half Demon, there were also a significant number of helpers, the situation would be very grim.
Luo Yang knew Shadow Boxing and mastered Shadowless Kick; in extreme danger, it would be easy for him to escape alone.
"You all wait here; I’ll go up and scout around," Luo Yang said.
He had thought to bring Hong Jiaxin with him, considering that Zhang Jing and the grandparents hadn’t reached an agreement yet, otherwise, they would have made their move in the Hongyun Brigade as well.
With that thought, Luo Yang went up the mountain alone.
Reaching the mid-mountain village, standing at the entrance, looking at the dilapidated scene with overgrown wild grass and collapsed walls, he knew it had been a long time since anyone had lived there.
A mud road led into the village, like entering an unknown mysterious world.
There used to be a small archway at the village entrance, made of wood, now decayed and fallen on the ground.
Various vines and plants grew wildly, as far as the eye could see, everything was lush and vibrant.
Even in broad daylight, looking at the green grass and the low houses always gave a somewhat eerie feeling.
Although Luo Yang was a bold man, he couldn’t help but get goosebumps.
The village wasn’t large, possibly consisting of a few dozen households.
If he started searching every empty house, it would take until nightfall to finish.
Since it was a small mud path, Luo Yang carefully observed the road surface to see if there were a lot of shoe prints.
After looking for a while, he actually found some shoe prints, but very few.
He then slowly walked into the village; houses with closed doors gave a sense of security.
Those with doors open or slightly ajar seemed like beasts with open mouths, ready to swallow someone at any moment.
Especially when the mountain wind blew, listening to the creaky sounds of the doors and windows, it added a layer of mysterious and terrifying atmosphere to this dead quiet village.
If it were nighttime, Luo Yang felt he wouldn’t dare come here.
Luckily it was broad daylight, and even if there were unclean things, at least in the sunlight, they wouldn’t cause trouble.
He came here just to scout if there was a large number of thugs ambushing.
As for dealing with unclean things, that would be left to Zhang Jing and the grandparents.
With every step forward, Luo Yang was extremely cautious.
At any sign of rustling leaves, he would immediately retreat.
He had thought about calling Qi Xiangtian’s mobile number but was afraid of alerting him.
Walking from the village head to the tail, he found nothing amiss; although the village was a bit ghostly, it was still normal.
