Thanks to Xian Su's help, most of the villagers recovered from chickenpox within a week.
Everyone became very fond of Xian Su because of that. Slowly the village returned to normal and the residents there began to do their own activities.
Xian Su himself planned to stop by Yin Hao's house, as it had been a week since the last time they met.
This time Xian Su did not leave empty-handed. He cooked a lot of good food which was then stored in a multi-storey container.
"I think that's enough, they'll love my cooking."Xian Su wiped the sweat on his forehead. Although he was tired, he also felt satisfied that he could cook so many meals.
When he finished getting ready. Xian Su rushed towards the mountain with his homemade food.
During the journey down the village road, the people who saw him would definitely greet Xian Su as gratitude. This made Xian Su excited.
After entering the forest area under the foot of the mountain. Xian Su unintentionally heard a strange sound from the direction of the nearby bushes.
I was a little afraid to check. Xian Su continued to trace the origin of the voice to ease his curiosity.
Slowly Xian Su opened the moving shrub and was startled by a rabbit jumping through it.
Xian Su let out a sigh of relief when he found out the reason the bushes were moving was because there was a rabbit behind it.
"Phew.. It was just a rabbit."Xian Su muttered in relief, having thought that he would meet a beast.
But suddenly from behind, a 10-meter-tall stealth snake raised its head.
Xian Su who heard strange noises from behind turned around.
When he saw a large snake staring at him with its mouth open, Xian Su was shocked to fall into a sitting position.
"How is this ?"Xian Su muttered, unable to move his body from being too scared.
"Aray restraint !"
Coinciding when the caterpillar was about to pounce on Xian Su. Dozens of chains suddenly appeared from underground around the snake.
The chains then ensnared the body of the steel snake to make it unable to move.
From the back of Xian Su. Yin Hao walked over, then helped the woman up.
"Are you okay ?"Ask Yin Hao.
Xian Su shook his head."I'm okay, just a little surprised. What about the snake ?"
Yin Hao stared towards the writhing steel snake while making a loud sound. Then Yin Hao flicked his finger, making the chains that were holding back the steel snake let out heat. The hot air then burned the steel snake to turn it into ash.
"Steel bars belong to the lowest level of stealth ranks, so it's not hard for me to defeat them,"
"But aren't stealth animals usually in the depths of the forest, then what is the steel snake doing here ?"
Xian Su then walked beside Yin Hao after picking up his food container that had fallen.
They walked together into the forest in the south. A few hours walk, they arrived in a barren forest. There Yin Hao showed something extremely terrifying.
There were hundreds of corpses of low-level stealth animals lying close to each other, making Xian Su feel nauseous to see it.
"For 3 days I investigated this place alone. Search after my search, until every evidence leads me to the fact that these animals died being attacked by 1 high-level demon."
"You're kidding, since when in this place were there high-level stealth animals ? A mid-level demon beast alone was very step, let alone a high level,"
Yin Hao shook his head slowly, then said."If not a high-level demon beast, then who is capable of killing all of these demon beasts alone ?"
"Then what does that have to do with the previous steel snake ?"
"As you said before. Demonic animals very rarely appear, they prefer to live in the middle of a dense forest that is rich in food sources. In my opinion, the appearance of low-level demons on the outskirts of the forest because they need a place to hide to be protected from something terrible in the middle of the forest. I've spread a trap in the form of a restraint in the path that might be passed by the creature. But do you know what happens next ?"
Xian Su shook his head, feeling increasingly curious about the creature Yin Hao was talking about.
"The mid-level aray clarity I spread was shattered by something. Though my artificial aray is strong enough to scorch high-level stealth animals in seconds. This means that this animal is not an ordinary animal, but a real demon."
"This is a serious problem. What if the demon goes to my village ?"
Yin Hao stroked his chin and seemed to be thinking."That's what's making me dizzy now. But the distance between this place and your village is quite far. Let's just hope the demon doesn't go there."
"Yes, hopefully. By the way I brought something for you and Ling Qian's sister."
Xian Su opened his food container and showed his homemade food to Yin Hao.
"Looks tantalizing, don't you think ?"
"..."
Yin Hao was silent when he saw that some of the food was burnt.
Xian Su then invited Yin Hao to eat together. But before that they decided to move places because they did not want to eat while looking at the dead animals.
They rested under a smoke willow tree that was close to the path to the village where Xian Su lived.
When he ate the burnt part, Yin Hao remained ordinary to appreciate Xian Su's efforts to cook for himself and Ling Qian's teacher.
After finishing eating. The two went back apart, Yin Hao came home with a box of food for his teacher.
When he saw Yin Hao so greedy to eat his cooking, Xian'Su felt happy because only this time there was someone who liked his cooking so much.
When we got to his village. Xian'Su's steps suddenly came to a halt with the dropped food box. His eyes fixed on the ruined houses of the citizens, as well as the corpses of some people Xian Su knew.
"Cannot be. W-don't-don't you ?!"
