Chapter 17 Twilight Town 10

Jing Chan was a chatterbox, while Wen Li didn't like talking to people much, so along the way, Wen Li learned almost everything about this little girl's short seventeen-year life.

It seems that there are not only many bad people in this world, but also many fools.

She lost her parents and brothers at the age of seven and was even labeled a jinx. Since no relatives were willing to raise the little girl, she was taken in by the nuns in the mountain nunnery.

Qingshui Nunnery has a rule that they only accept young nuns who have reached the age of marriage. Those too young are not yet worldly-wise and their minds are unstable; they might regret it later. Children found in the nunnery are temporarily allowed to practice with their hair intact, and after the age of fifteen, they can decide whether to stay or leave the nunnery. Therefore, Jingchan has always practiced with her hair intact, and her wish before the age of fifteen was to become like her master, Master Jingyuan, who could always be by the Buddha's side.

But she met her current fiancé when she was fifteen. Because her master was worried about her fiancé's identity, he observed him for two whole years before agreeing to let her go down the mountain.

“Amo is amazing. He can even beat tigers in the mountains, but he’s just too busy. Amo works at a security escort agency in town and can only come to see me once a month.”

"By the way, Wen Li, can we be friends? I really admire demon hunters."

"Then you can go find those people who were next to me today; they'll definitely be happy to help," Wen Li said patiently, a rare occurrence for her.

Jing Chan remained stubborn and said, "But I just want to be your friend. From the first time we met, I thought no one is as good as you."

She knew the demon hunters who were there today. Although everyone was helping to treat the patients, there were degrees of severity and distinctions between clean and dirty tasks. Others would choose to handle tasks like getting and feeding medicine, but this girl would proactively wipe away the patients' vomit and help the doctors treat festering wounds.

She preferred the aloof Wen Li to the ever-smiling Wen Mingzhu.

Jing Chan's tone was firm, and Wen Li's heart was also very cold and hard. If they knew about her background, no one would want to be friends with her.

Jing Chan persisted, chattering incessantly about recommending himself the whole way. But when they reached the village entrance, he hid behind Wen Li, muttering, "Amitabha."

It seems the demon from last night terrified her.

Upon arriving at Zhao Family Village, Wen Li couldn't help but frown. There was a huge pit at the village entrance. Wen Li jumped down to observe it; it was about five meters wide and half a meter deeper than herself. This demon is quite powerful.

Upon entering the village, a few houses had collapsed, but the mountains and trees behind the village suffered even more damage. The once lush forest was now largely destroyed, as if the attackers were not in the village itself, but in the forest behind it.

"It must have been done by that wolf demon Huo Zhao." Si Xiaxia said confidently, as if she had already found the truth.

"Then why did he leave behind such a pool of blood?"

Wen Li stared at the bloodstains on the ground in deep thought when Qingshan's voice came from behind her.

"Fellow Daoist Wen Li, have you found any clues?"

Wen Li turned around and saw Wen Mingzhu and the others walking towards her.

She tilted her head to look at them: "I suppose Senior Aoyama already knows who it is."

Before Qingshan could speak, Zhao Sicheng proudly declared, "As soon as Mingzhu entered the village, they discovered the fur left behind by that demon. It belonged to a wolf demon. Moreover, the demon's power was so strong that it must have been Huo Zhao."

Wen Mingzhu just smiled shyly and didn't say anything.

Qingshan also said, "Miss Mingzhu is indeed very meticulous. She knew the true identity of the monster as soon as she arrived."

Wen Li looked like she suddenly understood: "Oh, I see. You guys are really amazing."

For some reason, Zhao Sicheng felt as if she was cursing him, even though she was praising him.

"We must find that monster, otherwise Mushan Town will never be peaceful." Wen Mingzhu was as righteous as ever.

"You can search slowly for now. I'll stay here in Zhao Family Village tonight and see if this monster dares to come again." After saying that, he pulled Jing Chan and walked back, not caring about their reactions.

"Host, why do you prefer to act alone? They are your partners."

"partner?"

She seemed to savor those two words, then curled her lip and said disdainfully, "I didn't."

Jing Chan clung tightly to Wen Li's arm the whole way, seemingly genuinely frightened. But when she saw a crowd of villagers surrounding her house, including some of her relatives, she abruptly released Wen Li's hand, pushed through the crowd, and rushed into her house.

"Look, that nemesis is back. She's back."

"It was she who caused our village to be attacked by monsters. My mother is still bedridden and can't get up."

"Damn it, it's one thing to bring misfortune to one's parents, but to bring misfortune to the whole village on the very first day back. My house is brand new."

Jingchan's house is not big. It is surrounded by a fence and has three rooms: two bedrooms, one main room, and the kitchen and toilet are located in the courtyard.

Jing Chan said he had been cleaning for over a month, but it was impossible to tell at the time. They had smashed everything they could, and the yard was a complete mess.

"Everyone, smash her house! Why is it that my house collapsed while hers is still perfectly fine!"

"That's right! We should kill her so she won't come back to harass our village again."

The older women in front of him were talking and trying to pull Jing Chan away.

At Wen Li's signal, Second Master rushed forward, startling the people blocking Wen Li's way into fleeing in panic.

Wen Li grabbed one of the older women by the arm and threw aside the other older women surrounding Jing Chan. Standing in front of Jing Chan, she drew her knife and swung it at the villagers.

Several middle-aged women standing close to the front of the group coughed up blood.

Si Xiaxia was so frightened that she dared not make a sound. After staying there for a while, she almost forgot that her host was a truly vicious female supporting character.

Seeing this, the people around dared not move anymore.

An elderly man with a kind face in the crowd earnestly advised, "Young lady, of all people to help, why do you have to help this nemesis?"

"A nemesis? Once this person becomes shameless, he will take out his anger on others because of his own misfortunes."

The more assertive man nearby, enraged, raised his axe and swung it at Wen Li: "You..."

"Miss Wenli, be careful!"

Wen Li sighed, glanced at the burly man, and unleashed her spiritual power, slamming him against the wall. The wall visibly trembled, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

The people around were so frightened that they backed away.

Only the old man stood in front, furious: "How can you demon hunters harm innocent people like us while protecting this nemesis! The nemesis deserves to die!"

Wen Li glanced around, crossed her arms, and introduced herself with a haughty smile: "It seems you don't recognize me. I am Wen Li, the only bloodline of the Jiang family in the South China Sea. The greatest nemesis in the world. If any of you dare, then come and kill me, and act on behalf of Heaven."

For centuries, the Jiang family of the South China Sea was undoubtedly the foremost demon-hunting family. But with no demons in the world, their skills had nowhere to be used, so they could only remain unknown and live in seclusion. Fifty years ago, the head of the Jiang family passed through Ghost Valley. In order to become a hero in this chaotic world, he used a trick to loosen the seal, allowing the demons to escape.

Therefore, whenever demons cause trouble, people will drag the Jiang family out and condemn them. The Jiang family is dead, so isn't the child born to Jiang Yanhong, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, who carries the blood of the Jiang family, the greatest calamity and nemesis in the world?

"Wen Li, that remnant of the Jiang family!"

Some of the villagers who knew what was happening screamed in fright. Those nearby quickly covered his mouth.

"Be careful, she might kill you."

Wen Li was not only known for her viciousness and cruelty, but also for her superb martial arts skills. Moreover, she was, after all, a legitimate young lady of the Wen family. The Wen family seemed to ignore Wen Li, but they had already declared upon her return to the capital that they would not let anyone who dared to harm her life get away with it.

The villagers were terrified. They carried several of the injured villagers and scrambled away.

Only two people remained in the courtyard—no, Si Xiaxia was there too. None of the three uttered a single word.
