When he spoke here, some of those who had opposed him earlier began to feel a bit ashamed. At this moment, Lan Ran Qingtian quickly formed seals, then bit his finger and struck it against the ground with a loud clap. The earth rapidly cracked open, and a pair of white tigers emerged from the smoke.
He clenched his fists tightly, with two Lion-Hybrids standing beside him, their majestic forms seemingly shining with light. "I cannot convince everyone, but my companions and I will fight until the last moment because this is the honor of being an Exorcist!"
Xiang Xueer smiled slightly, for after he finished speaking, the expressions on everyone's faces changed. Indeed, it was the expression of burning fighting spirit—remarkable Lan Ran Qingtian.
She turned to look at Qingtian and then exchanged glances with Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue. This Li Yunyang still had many clever ideas; it seemed that the title of Holy Ten Exorcists could indeed inspire people. She clicked her tongue and said, "Well, it looks like I need to get myself a Saint Ten title to play with."
"Heh heh!" Li Yunyang looked unconvinced as he followed behind Lan Ran Qingtian, walking toward the cave's exit while smiling at Xiang Xueer. "Dead Girl, this has nothing to do with Saint Ten; it’s the honor of being an Exorcist—honor! Do you understand? It’s something every Exorcist should possess."
The honor of being an Exorcist? Xiang Xueer couldn't help but chuckle; it felt as if she was being told to love this identity and work as passionately as one loves their homeland. So that’s how it is!
The hundred-member Exorcist team finally emerged from the cage held by this Bakemono. Once they reached the courtyard, everyone began discussing tactical issues.
At this moment, Xiang Xueer walked over. "Our top priority is to find out where the Bakemono wants to go in that village. As long as we know their direction and location, we might be able to reach them before they take action."
She quickly pulled out a map from her sleeve, which marked the names of nearby villages. "The closest one to Duckbill Mountain is probably either Exorcism Village or Ghost Night Village. As for the other villages, considering the distance and that the Bakemono are moving with a large group, if they really intend to act tonight, then these few villages will definitely not be reached."
Xiang Xueer smiled as she slapped her hand down on the location of Ghost Night Village. "If I'm not mistaken, their target for village slaughter is: Ghost Night Village!"
Everyone immediately looked at Xiang Xueer in amazement. "Wow, incredible! Such a young child can analyze battle situations so precisely!"
A child? Xiang Xueer stuffed the map back into her sleeve and veins popped out on her forehead. "Read books; online girls read books! Now we split into two groups. Lian Cheng Xue and I will set off first to scout the situation. Qingtian and Li Yunyang, you lead the Exorcists swiftly toward Ghost Night Village. We will gather at the entrance of a nearby village; remember, do not act independently!"
After saying this, she quickly formed seals again and bit her finger before striking it against the ground with a loud clap, shouting: "Summoning!"
Taotie's mighty body emerged from the thick fog. It glanced at the surprised faces around and asked, "Master, do you have any orders?"
"The situation is urgent; let's talk while we move!" Xiang Xueer quickly leaped onto Taotie's back, pulling Lian Cheng Xue up with one hand and reminding, "You all need to hurry; we must arrive before midnight!"
"Understood!" Li Yunyang and Lan Ran Qingtian nodded. Xiang Xueer and Lian Cheng Xue then urged Taotie to swiftly disappear into the night.
"Wow, is that really Taotie?" Old Zhang exclaimed, his eyes nearly popping out. Taotie was an ancient divine beast; just seeing it was astonishing enough, but to find out it was a little girl's summoned beast left him dumbfounded. He stammered, "Heavens, who exactly is this girl?"
Standing nearby, Ouyang pondered for a moment before slapping his thigh: "Ah, I got it! Did you see the family crest on her arm? That's the crest of the Ouyang Clan! She must be from the Ouyang Family!"
The crowd buzzed with excitement. Li Yunyang, with a smug expression, nodded: "That's right! I am the chief disciple of the current Holy Ten Exorcists, Feng Qingyang: Li Yunyang. That little girl is my wife."
"Wow, you all are amazing! It seems we will definitely win this battle!" The morale of everyone immediately soared as they rolled up their sleeves, eager to fight against the Bakemono and avenge their families.
"Hey! Don't let her hear that. Just mentioning the Ouyang Family will surely infuriate her!" Lan Ran Qingtian lightly counted the number of people. Including himself and Li Yunyang, there were exactly ninety-nine. They quickly advanced toward Ghost Night Village according to Xiang Xueer's formation and instructions.
Lian Cheng Xue, holding the Black Iron Sword that Li Yunyang had handed him with one hand while riding on Taotie's back, nervously clenched his fist: "Miss Xueer, you... you are actually sitting on Taotie's back!"
With its blood-red eyes fixed coldly on Lian Cheng Xue, Taotie snapped, "Stupid human, if you keep talking, I'll throw you off!"
Upon hearing this, Lian Cheng Xue quickly shut his mouth. Noticing he was swaying behind her, Xiang Xueer promptly grabbed his hand and placed it on her waist: "Hold on tight; it's not good to only use one hand!"
As his hand touched her soft waist, the proximity between them made him blush and his heart race: "Don't... this is really too inappropriate! Men and women should keep their distance!"
Where did all this nonsense come from? Xiang Xueer was most annoyed by this kind of talk, and then shouted, "Partner, move faster! We need to pick up the pace!"
"Okay!" Taotie shouted sternly, and then with a burst of Azure Wind, they rushed forward towards Ghost Night Village. Lian Cheng Xue swallowed hard and tightly wrapped his arms around Xiang Xueer's waist to steady himself. Finally, after an hour, they arrived above Ghost Night Village.
At this time, Ghost Night Village was already closed up as usual, with doors shut tight. Xiang Xueer looked down at the entire Ghost Night Village, and soon she spotted the location of Bakemono and its Ghost Legion.
They were marching towards Ghost Night Village in full force, with Bakemono and Thousand Demons leading the way, riding high horses with proud expressions. She estimated the distance; from their position to Ghost Night Village, it would take about half an hour.
Tch, Xiang Xueer cursed under her breath. Based on the distance, it would take at least one and a half hours for Qingtian and Li Yunyang to arrive here—three hours at the very least. Even if they hurried, it would still take at least two hours. No matter how she calculated it, they wouldn't make it in time. "If we can hold them off outside the village, that would be the best scenario!"
"Miss Xueer, why do you say that?" Lian Cheng Xue asked, somewhat confused. He looked down at the Bakemono on the ground, frowning deeply. "So many Demon Soldiers!"
Xiang Xueer pointed towards Ghost Night Village: "Isn't it obvious? Look at this distance; it's still quite far from the civilians. If our forces can arrive in time, then the fighting will only happen in this forest. But once they enter the village, if we engage in battle then, it will definitely endanger the villagers."
"Ah, I see!" Lian Cheng Xue finally understood. He looked at the massive army approaching and felt frustrated for lacking power; otherwise, his family and the villagers wouldn't have to die.
Xiang Xueer sighed deeply: "It's truly a helpless situation in war. If only I had a 56-style 40mm rocket launcher right now, I could solve this problem immediately!"
A rocket launcher? Lian Cheng Xue looked at her with confusion: "What is a rocket launcher?"
"Nothing!" Xiang Xueer crossed her arms and fixed her eagle-like gaze on Bakemono, who was sitting atop a high horse: "A rocket launcher is a weapon with great destructive power; one shot can take down a whole area—it's even more effective than a Grenade!”
