Chapter 252 - Demonic Fox Monster Slaughters a City!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Boom!

Six-tenths of a mile to the southeast of Fox Cave were Happy, Thunderous Battle, Little North, and All-powerful Medicinal Stone. They had heard the loud, thunderous boom at the same time. They also heard the Nine-tailed Fox’s shrill howl filled with despair. Feeling wary, they tightened their grips over the reins. When they turned their heads around, they saw the blood-red sky and stopped. Shock was in their eyes.

“This is…”

All-powerful Medicinal Stone’s eyes sparkled. He turned his head to the side and listened for a while. A frown gradually appeared between his eyebrows. “Yao Hua’s dead!”

“I wonder who managed to kill him,” Little North mumbled under his breath in an indignant manner. When he thought about someone seizing a divine weapon so close to him, he felt disappointment and displeasure, and all of it was written on his face.

“I heard that Yao Hua was heavily injured, but his wife seems to have only suffered from qi deviation. Could it be that the war has just started?” Thunderous Battle’s guess made Happy cast his an admiring glance at him.

‘Even though he didn’t see what happened in Fox Cave, he still managed to make an accurate guess. As expected, Big Brother Thunder might seem like a brute, but he has a sharp eye. He has an extraordinary ability in understanding things. I wonder why the never had any fame in my previous life?’ Happy wondered quietly.

At that moment, the system sent them an unexpected notification, and it rang in their heads.

“Yao Hua’s wife has fallen into the path of demons. She has turned into the Nine-tailed Fox, and she will bring evil unto all life. She will immediately charge into the cities around Wuhu. To prevent all lives from suffering from utter misery, all martial artists should take up the responsibility of getting rid of the demon to protect the path of justice!”

Ding!

A clear sound snapped them out of their daze.

“If you receive the quest to get rid of the demon and protect the path of justice, you must kill the Nine-tailed Fox, who is in Inaction Realm. You will then obtain the Nine-tailed Fox’s divine weapon along with the demon vessel Fox Coat. You will also get the Nine-tailed Fox’s Secret Art.”

The four looked at each other at a loss when the system finished providing the notifications.

One divine vessel, one demon vessel, and they would also be able to receive an ultimate technique if they managed to complete the quest. This was perhaps the quest that provided the greatest and most shocking rewards since World of Martial Arts had been launched.

However, the difficulty of the quest was even more astonishing!

The Nine-tailed Fox was actually at Inaction Realm…

What was the concept of Inaction Realm?

Happy knew about it since a long time ago, which was only natural that he was not shocked by the news. However, Thunderous Battle and the other two sensed a pressure that felt like a mountain placed on their shoulders, and they felt incredibly helpless toward the situation.

“Let’s go back.”

“We can forget about doing this quest. Let’s not get held up here.”

After a brief pause, the trio came to one decision unanimously.

Even though the temptation of divine weapons and ultimate techniques was incredible, there was a difference of three qi realms between them, and it was not a difference that could be bridged with numbers. This was similar to how a thug who only ever fought in street fights could not fight against an elite martial artist. No matter how many people there were, it was useless.

They knew about this better than anyone else. Hence, they forced down the urges in their hearts, snapped their reins, and had their Hoof Shadows run in the direction of White Tiger Forest.

During their journey, Happy obtained a messenger pigeon from Chivalry Sect’s Vice Sect Master Lin Xiao. He only wrote three sentences in his letter, and the content was very simple. [Thank you for the matter with Fallen Feathers Sect! Also, the Nine-tailed Fox cannot be defeated. The three sects have already retreated.]

Happy smiled and wrote two words in his own letter.

[Got it.]

He then released the messenger pigeon.

Not only had Lin Xiao learned about Happy’s party leaving resolutely after they destroyed Fallen Feathers Sect, he also came to the conclusion that Fallen Feathers Sect might have appeared to fight against his Chivalry Sect. At the same time, he also managed to figure out that Happy and his party had appeared to help lighten their burden, which was why he wrote a letter to thank them.

Happy did not think much into it and did not show any intention to engage in small talk.

The Nine-tailed Fox’s appearance meant that the area around Wuhu would descend into chaos and darkness that it had never witnessed before. Most of the players would drop millions, and some of the more unlucky players would even drop equipment that were treasures which did not lose to divine vessels. With such a temptation, it would be strange if the players in Wuhu could resist.

Powerful players like Lin Xiao might value what they currently had and would not want to take risks, but many of the players who had just achieved some degree of success or had not even reached any sort of qi realm treated the punishment of death as something that was very light. As long as they could get some loot through sheer luck, they would gain rewards that were as great as the rewards of killing a hidden Boss.

This would make the people kill in revenge, and the Nine-tailed Fox would also give rise to a slew of hidden troubles with her slaughter.

Happy did not want to participate in such chaos.

*****

When the Nine-tailed Fox left Fox Cave, a group of people quietly rushed over from the distance. They swiftly headed in the direction of Fox Cave. Naturally, they were the survivors from the three great sects.

After all, the temptation of divine weapons was extremely great. Giving up on them completely was the same as letting something good go to waste. Besides, the loot that thousands of players dropped was enough for Class One Hall and Towering Palace to send scouts to take a risk.

They went to Yao Hua’s tomb, however, all they saw was a forest that raged with fire under the blood red sky.

It was on fire!

Before the Nine-tailed Fox left, she chose to ensure that no one would steal from Yao Hua by burning the entire forest.

When the players came over, they found that the ground was ravaged by fire, and the earth was scorched. Not only had Yao Hua’s body disappeared without a trace, even the players’ corpses had been burnt to a crisp. The loot was also gone in the fire.

“Damn it!”

“Let’s pick up the loot around the area first.”

The people from the two great sects had to shift their sights to the few corpses outside the forest while comforting themselves in their hearts. ‘At least we still gained something from this.’

*****

The areas that were less than six miles away from Wuhu turned into hell on earth. The Nine-tailed Fox prowled around Immortal Fox Village while full of anger. Wherever she went, the area would be left desolate, with corpses strewn all over the ground and blood flowing in rivers!

The players whose bodies had still not recovered did not know whether they were unlucky or fortunate. When they saw the Nine-tailed Fox appear outside the village, their expressions changed, and they logged off immediately. They had already witnessed teh Nine-tailed Fox’s might, and they absolutely did not want to stay for even a second longer in front of this existence who was like the King of Hell.

The players who did not know what was going on instantly fell to misfortune.

Right after they saw the Nine-tailed Fox, they saw a red figure flash past their bodies at the speed of lightning, and it swept them aside with the force of a whirlwind. That figure went about madly venting the rage she bore because of Yao Hua’s death.

Boom!

The people in the distance were about to turn around when an astonishing force erupted from under their feet. Countless shattered stones flew to attack them with a fierce power and turned them into meshes.

The walls of a few houses collapsed to reveal the players who were shocked and baffled inside.

Whoosh!

A dark blue saber glare cut at the shops from outside at the speed of lightning.

Boom!

A few players were sent flying into a pile of rubble strewn all over the place while covered in blood. They did not climb up again.

The Nine-tailed Fox wreaked havoc from the top to the bottom of Immortal Fox Village.

The people from Guanlin Temple left quickly. Once the Nine-tailed Fox rushed to Guanlin Temple as her final target, she swept through it like a typhoon, even though there was nothing inside it.

Once the savage and brutal Nine-tailed Fox passed through that place, she went up to the government-made road that led to Wuhu.

At that moment, many people appeared at the horizon with a mighty momentum. They were not slow and closed in on Immortal Fox Village in no time without noticing that the God of Death was swiftly approaching them. They were still immersed in the excitement of hearing about the Nine-tailed Fox and were fired up by the boundless enthusiasm of possibly killing her.

The Nine-tailed Fox moved like lightning. She brought with her endless rage to take revenge on the society. With the greatest speed she could muster, she vented her rage with her destructive abilities on the endless stream of people that came charging at her with a mighty force.

Savage howls echoed nonstop under the red sky.

Blood swiftly dyed the land red. It flowed down the government-made road and swiftly spread through Wuhu.
