“What’s going on? Why can’t I pull it out?”

The villagers suddenly spoke, their eyes filled with panic.

Seeing that they were no longer in a daze, Jiang Ming suspected that they were pretending just now.

Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe said smugly, “These villagers are weak.”

The baby-faced woman had already been killed by Jiang Ming in one move, and only the villagers were left.

He slowly walked toward the villagers with a smile.

“Now it’s your turn. You should have realized something.”

The villagers were so scared that they started to pretend to be pitiful.

“We didn’t do anything to hurt you. As for what we did just now, it was all because you guys attacked first, right?”

“Jiu Zhu, you’re just causing trouble. Can’t you blame us for defending ourselves?”

“l hope you can understand our feelings and let us go now.”

In the end, the villagers expressed their agreement and even looked at Jiang

Ming angrily.

Jiang Ming rolled his eyes.

These people very clearly shirked their responsibilities. Those who did not know better would think that Jiang Ming and the other two were evil people.

At this moment, everything around them suddenly disappeared. Jiang Ming and the other two found that they were in a village. Only then did they know that everything just now was an overlapping of illusion and reality.

Yuan Hehe was dumbfounded.

“After all this, we have been deceived for so long. If we had known earlier, we wouldn’t have argued with the villagers here. Perhaps we could have discovered the truth earlier.’

The weapons in the villagers’ hands had also disappeared. They gathered together and pretended to smile. “You are now in our territory. No matter what you do, it will be useless. Why don’t you beg for mercy now? We can give you a chance to escape.”

Jiang Ming found it unbelievable.

These villagers were panicking earlier, but now they wanted them to beg for mercy. How ridiculous.

Sikong Wuyuan looked around. There were only a few houses around them. They were somewhat dilapidated and there was not even a road.

The only similarity was that there were some lucky mascots hanging in front of the houses, and there were even a few big stone lions at the doors to intimidate everyone.

For some reason, he felt a little strange. He kept feeling that the scene was something he had seen before, but he had no memory of it.

However, what he could confirm was that these things were most likely the array’s core. When the time came to activate the array, they would all be trapped.

Yuan Hehe looked at the villagers arrogantly and sneered. “You villagers are really arrogant. You don’t have any weapons now. Even if we are in your village, what can you do? There are only a few households here. You can’t beat us with your strength!”

“Who said we can’t win?”

A shout came from behind the villagers.

This shout was sonorous and powerful, and it was accompanied by the sound of crutches landing on the ground.

The villagers lined up in two rows and looked at the person behind them with respect.

As the villagers moved, Jiang Ming and the other two also saw the person’s appearance clearly.

His entire face was covered by a beard, revealing only his eyes, nose, and mouth. He looked like a typical warrior.

The only thing that could show his characteristics was probably his hunched back and the walking stick he was gripping.

There was an eye in the middle of the walking stick. The eye could even move, and it looked very strange.

The old man laughed.

“l am the village chief here. Since the three of you are here, sit down. What’s so good about fighting and killing?”

They did not expect the old man’s attitude to change so quickly. Jiang Ming and the other two were a little stunned, and then they narrowed their eyes.

They did not believe that the old man would agree so readily. They were afraid that he was up to some other tricks.

Just as they had expected, after a while, they realized that there were suddenly more animals in front of them.

These animals stared at them as if they were monsters. Their eyes were filled with curiosity and vigilance.

Yuan Hehe could not help but mutter to himself, “Where did these animals come from?”

Sikong Wuyuan also said to Yuan Hehe in his heart, “We still don’t know what kind of ability that village chief has. However, I have a feeling that he knows some strange spells. I heard that there is witchcraft in this world. Who knows if he knows such evil things?”

“Let’s listen and talk later.’

Jiang Ming also heard this, but he did not want to stay there any longer. He said to the village chief, “Chief, we don’t want to stay here. Since you said not to cause any disputes, then let someone take us away from here. There’s no need to talk too much. We really don’t want to stay for a long time.”

Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe also nodded, showing that they agreed with Jiang Ming.

The village chief did not have any reaction, and there was no discernible expression on his face.

“Do you agree with them?” he asked the villagers.

“We have a rule here. If you want to leave, you have to do something for the village. Otherwise, you have to get the villagers’ permission,” he explained.

Jiang Ming could not help but roll his eyes.

He knew that these people’s thoughts were not so simple. A moment ago, they did not want them to leave. Thus, they could not let them go so easily.

Then, the three of them realized that these animals had secretly surrounded them.

Yuan Hehe had a vague feeling that if they dared to escape, the animals would definitely rush up and kill them regardless of the villagers’ opinions.

He secretly told Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan about the situation. The two of them also felt the hostility of these animals.

Jiang Ming thought for a moment and looked at the villagers. “Friends, we did offend you just now, but we didn’t mean any harm. I think we should let it go. Don’t dwell on this matter anymore. Let’s just let it go.”

However, the villagers were persistent.

“You’ve done so many bad things. How can you leave so easily? You must stay for at least a year.”

“Stay for a year?”

Yuan Hehe’s expression changed.

“If we stay here for a year, we will suffer. Can this backwater place provide me with spiritual energy?”

His face was filled with confusion.

In the past, he had to eat a large number of spiritual fruits to sustain his spiritual energy. This village was surrounded by mountains, so how could there be spiritual trees, let alone spiritual fruits?

He was already very old. Without the spiritual fruits, he would age terribly.

Hearing this, Jiang Ming was speechless..
