Chapter 3747: Escape

The villagers were furious, shouting to drive Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou away.

But they didn't notice that when they said these words, the village chief's face was as gloomy as water.

"Shut up!"

The hoarse but angry voice sounded, and the surrounding villagers who were shouting were immediately silent.

The village chief turned around and swept his serious eyes over all the villagers behind him. His old and wrinkled face at this moment had an unparalleled deterrent power, which made all the villagers recall the village chief's decisiveness and ruthlessness when he was young.

"If anyone dares to say to drive away Chu Daoyou and Gongsun Daoyou again, I will be the first to drive him out. I think you have been living a peaceful life for too long and don't know the importance of the oracle of the Nine Spirit Messenger."

Many villagers were silent, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to look up at the village chief.

At this time, the change came again.

The sky above Jiuling Village suddenly became gloomy, and the lead-gray clouds suddenly appeared, making the originally sunny weather suddenly dim. Everyone felt the atmosphere of impending storm, and everyone's mood became heavier.

After half an incense stick of time, a breath that frightened all the villagers of Jiuling Village suddenly descended!

The village chief looked up and saw a tall and majestic black figure descending with this breath.

This figure stood upright, and although the figure was dim, the village chief felt a terrifying vitality from it. This power was far beyond his cognition, and it even felt stronger than Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou!

The villagers with weak cultivation could no longer resist the power brought by this figure, and they could not help but kneel on the ground, just like the Jiuling messenger kowtowed during the sacrifice, kneeling and kowtowed to this figure.

"I hope you will spare my life."

"What is going on? Who can come to save us?"

"Why did this kind of change happen in our village?"

Some people asked questions, but unfortunately no one could answer the villagers' doubts. Even the village chief was at a loss, not knowing what caused the change in front of him.

But what he could be sure of was that the advent of this change meant that Jiuling Village would no longer have the care of Jiuling messengers at this moment.

Now everything had to be dealt with by themselves. And at the moment, it seemed that only Chu Yang and the other two guys who were called outsiders by the villagers could help Jiuling Village out of this predicament.

"Send someone to the back mountain to find Fellow Daoist Chu and Fellow Daoist Gongsun now!"

No one dared to disobey the village chief's order. Soon, some villagers ran towards the back mountain like crazy, hoping that Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou could help them out of this predicament.

After this strange figure descended, all the villagers in Jiuling Village fell into a state of madness. They had no intention of working or eating. They gathered in the square in the center of the village in fear, looking up at the black figure floating in the air.

A few hours passed, and the black figure still did not move.

But these villagers did not relax their vigilance, but became more and more depressed.

I don’t know how long it took, when all the villagers looked sleepy, a sudden click sounded in the ears of all the villagers.

"What happened?"

"Look, the statue in the sky has cracked."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's face was as weird as it could be, and they immediately looked up at the dark sky above their heads.

And when they saw the scene above their heads, the scene in front of them shocked them and made everyone stare with surprise!

"How is this possible? What happened?"

"Are we saved?"

"Oh no, look, something seems to have come out of the statue!"

The villagers' joy and excitement lasted only for a short moment. Before they could be happy for long, a desperate scene happened again.

The crack suddenly appeared on the chest of the statue and quickly cracked. Countless black shadows came from the sky from the crack and attacked Jiuling Village.

Many villagers in Jiuling Village have embarked on the path of cultivation. They have a certain level of cultivation and feel an incomparable terrifying power from those black shadows. This power is beyond their cognition and makes them feel fear instinctively.

The appearance of those black shadows made the already dark sky completely lose the care of light. The villagers shrouded in darkness felt the existence of the cloth, but they could realize that the black shadows were getting closer and closer to them, and they had no way to resist these guys.

The village chief looked at this scene with despair.

At this time, the villagers who were sent out still showed no signs of returning. If they did not escape in the battle, it meant that there was a high probability that something unexpected happened in the back mountain.

However, considering the sudden disaster, there might be turmoil in the back mountain at this moment, so the villager was most likely dead in the back mountain.

Now there was no one in the entire Jiuling Village who could save them, and the village chief made a difficult decision in hesitation.

He turned around and looked at the many panicked villagers, and ordered angrily but extremely unwillingly:

"Everyone, find a way to escape, escape as far as you can, and never come back. Although I don't know if this will work, staying here will only lead to death, and there will be no hope of survival."

After saying these words, the village chief seemed to have aged ten years. His already hunched back bent again, and his eyes were cloudy and lifeless, as if the remaining strength had been drained away.

Now the people who could save them are now missing. It is very likely that they are trapped in the back mountain and cannot escape for a while.

And no one knows what the figure above the sky is doing? The village chief did not dare to gamble, so the only way was to dismiss the surrounding villagers and see if he could find a way out for this.

If even this method does not work, then the village chief can only accept death calmly.

It was difficult for many people to accept that they, a group of villagers who have lived in Jiuling Village for countless years, should leave this place.

But the danger did not allow them to hesitate. Finally, some villagers could not withstand the pressure and took their families to the direction of the village gate.

One person chose to leave the village first, and there would be a second and third person later.

More and more villagers began to walk out of the village with their belongings and relatives. The light and shadows in the distance were dim and the road ahead was not clear. The village chief did not know whether these villagers had walked out of a way of life or into a dead end.

But then again, the only thing the village chief could do now was to pray for these villagers who chose to leave, and lead the remaining villagers to protect the Jiuling Village that had existed here since ancient times.
