The villagers' eyes were filled with despair as they cried out and fell to the ground, creating chaos all around. In the end, their fierce gazes turned toward Qin Feng.
It was all his fault; they wanted to capture him and hand him over to the River God. Yes, throw him into the river. And Zhu Xiucai too; these people were all in cahoots and should be tossed into the river together.
Desperately clutching at a lifeline, the villagers scrambled to their feet and surrounded Qin Feng. Ning Caichen and the others had never witnessed such a scene before, their faces turning pale with fear as they instinctively stepped back. Only Qin Feng remained calm, standing still and coldly observing the crowd.
Qin Wan'er clutched Qin Feng's arm tightly, terrified. The villagers’ eyes were bloodshot, their expressions twisted with rage—men, women, and children alike—how could that not be terrifying?
With a cold snort, Qin Feng released a trace of Long Wei from his body. The villagers' faces changed dramatically as they felt that Qin Feng had transformed into a terrifying beast ready to devour them.
Thud! Thud! The villagers' legs went weak, and they collapsed to the ground, their eyes filled with fear as they dared not look at Qin Feng.
Ning Caichen and the others let out a sigh of relief, knowing it must have been Qin Feng who acted. He paid no attention to the villagers but turned to look toward the forest.
Zhou Ziling and the others exchanged puzzled glances at Qin Feng. Who was he calling? Weren't they already here?
At that moment, a young man with a pale face emerged from behind a large tree, his peach blossom eyes leaving a deep impression. He seemed nervous as he hurried over and respectfully addressed Qin Feng.
Zhou Ziling and the others were astonished to see this person. How was it that Qin Feng had an acquaintance here?
"Are you sent by Lao Hu?" Qin Feng asked.
"Yes, yes," the young man replied hurriedly. "I have investigated thoroughly; this River God is actually a Black Fish Demon. It just took shape not long ago, occupying this stretch of river and declaring itself the River God. It demands Qinghe Village and several other villages to offer Child Sacrifices every month."
The young man did not dare delay further and quickly shared everything he knew.
Qin Feng frowned, dissatisfied. "Is it just a mere shape-shifting demon?"
Qing Ren hesitated for a moment before whispering, "This Black Fish Demon seems to have allied with Qinghe Water Lord, who is a demon king at the Golden Core Stage."
Qin Feng's eyes flickered with interest. "Are you suggesting that if we kill this Black Fish Demon, we will have to face that Qinghe Water Lord?"
Qing Ren nodded eagerly.
At that moment, Huang Xu stepped forward with a serious expression. "Brother Qin, I know about Qinghe Water Lord. He is a Carp that has turned into a demon and is associated with the Dongting Lake Dragon Lord."
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow. "Ha, even demons know how to find a backer."
Huang Xu let out a bitter laugh. "Demons aren't fools either."
Then he became serious again. "Brother Qin, this is troublesome; we cannot kill this demon."
Qin Feng looked at Huang Xu, puzzled. "Why? Just because of the Qinghe Water Lord behind him?"
Huang Xu nodded. "The Dongting Lake Dragon Lord was conferred by the court as Zheng Shen. He can appoint other water gods, so Qinghe Water Lord is also considered a Zheng Shen. To kill him, we would need an imperial decree or for Zhen Mo Si to handle it personally."
Qin Feng furrowed his brow slightly. "If I were to kill Qinghe Water Lord, would the court really come after me?"
Huang Xu paused for a moment before replying, "Not exactly, but you would face the Dragon Lord's pursuit, and the court wouldn't intervene."
Qin Feng chuckled at this. "Is that so? Well then."
