The Witch Queen And The Delinquent Man
Chapter 9. The Ultimate Plan of the True Villain (first part)

The valley lay in the middle of the wilderness, among the trees hanging their fallen branches like the hands of a shadow trying to reach them. The moonlight was only able to pierce thinly through the trees and create terrifying shadows around it.

The sound of wind passing between the trees sounded like the murmuring of a ghost. A thick fog crept on the ground, making the footsteps of the horse Zhou Yu Jin was riding faint among the darkness of the valley. Every sound of crickets or night bugs could make him jump, as he was wary of attacks that could at any time come from darkness.

Zhou Yu Jin felt a chill running down his bones, and his hair was standing upright as he felt as if an invisible spy was watching him from within the shadows. He knew that the seven blade experts who had escaped earlier were not enemies that could be taken lightly. They are cunning criminals who are able to hide in the dark and launch surprise attacks.

Vigilantly, Zhou Yu Jin continued down the dark and desolate streets of the valley of the villains, ready to face any dangers that might lurk him in that darkness.

After walking much deeper into that haunted valley, Zhou Yu Jin finally arrived at a complex that looked extremely mysterious. The towering buildings are made of black stone which seems scary. The people inside this complex had an evil appearance; their eyes were filled with disbelief, and sinister smiles were engraved on their faces.

Zhou Yu Jin felt uneasy as soon as he stepped inside the compound. The surrounding people seemed to be speaking in low voices, but their words sounded full of intrigue. There were sharp gazes pointing at him, making him feel as if he was being watched by many suspicious eyes.

Carefully, Zhou Yu Jin continued his pace through this complex, trying to keep his vigilance high. He knew that in a place like this, no one could be completely trusted.

This valley of criminals is a place filled with secrets, betrayals, and unexpected evil plans. Only the most cunning and ruthless can survive amidst the darkness that envelops this valley.

The people in this valley looked cunning and ruthless. Their faces were burning with hateful eyes, and their clothes were torn and seedy. They are individuals who live in injustice and crime, working as thieves, fraudsters, and bullies who are not afraid to do anything to achieve their goals.

Zhou Yu Jin passed them without reprimand, he remained in high alertness, keeping the possibility of another attack coming.

These people seemed to be ignoring Zhou Yu Jin's presence, but after Zhou Yu Jin had walked away, there was suddenly the sound of laughter from those people.

"Hahahaha, the seven Swordsman Knives were defeated by that snot boy ?!" said one of those people.

Zhou Yu Jin was sure these people were allies of the seventh Swordsman Blade Expert.

"They must be part of the seven Swordsmen" Inner Zhou Yu Jin. "I must be careful !"

Zhou Yu Jin continued on his way, he had no desire to fight against them all.

Despite mastering high skills, but with their large numbers, Zhou Yu Jin realized he could not keep up with everything.

Zhou Yu Jin had indeed heard of the villains inhabiting this valley of criminals. But he never knew where the forces of the criminals were. Moreover, he did not control the terrain of this place. Surely in this case the people are more in the fight.

Drowning in his mind, suddenly from the other direction out of nowhere, a loud little voice laughed while saying ridiculing words.

"Hahahaha, a snot boy like you could possibly defeat us !"

"Who is that?!, come out and we fight like true warriors !!" challenge Zhou Yu Jin.

The voice did not show his laughter getting louder and unpleasant to hear.

At the sound of her voice, that person must be a woman.

"You know?, actually the poison in your body has not disappeared at all" said the voice again with a laugh.

Zhou Yu Jin did not believe the woman's words.It was clear the poison in his body had been successfully removed.

"It's clear my body is fine, where might the poison still be in my body ?" murmured Zhou Yu Jin.

He tried to re-energize his energy.

However, something unexpected happened.The more he exerted his energy, there was a strange energy that interfered with his body system.

"What ?" Zhou Yu Jin became worried about what was happening with his body.

In the worry of Zhou Yu Jin trying to exert his energy, suddenly behind the trees appeared seven familiar figures.

The seven figures were the seven Swordsman swordsmen who a moment ago, fled from him.

"It was a pure energy binding Poison" Yang Guo said as he walked over to Zhou Yu Jin whose body was starting to weaken.
