CHAPTER 1085: CHAPTER 1087: THE PIG DEMON YAO REVEALS ITSELF

In their conversation, they started discussing about the pig demon.

This pig demon has appeared recently, and already three demon hunters have been killed by it.

In order to prevent the pig demon from harming the people, they gathered strong individuals to set out together to exterminate it.

When Wen Wen heard the term "pig demon," he thought it must be Zhu Pengpei, based on the feedback from the chains, Zhu Pengpei’s location is nearby.

Secondly, the timeline fits; the first appearance of the pig demon legend matches when Wen Wen encountered Chun Ling.

Finally, the victims are all wealthy landlords.

These landlords have one thing in common: they are all very fat. Given the national condition of Da Song, it is difficult for ordinary people to get fat, and Zhu Pengpei’s favorite pastime is devouring obese humans.

Thus, Wen Wen said to everyone, "Let me join you. I observe the demonic aura here is sky-high, and you alone may not be the match for the pig demon."

A superpower user with a long spear and leopard-head-ringed eyes hesitated at Wen Wen’s offer, saying, "This is the duty of our Demon Hunter Alliance. You need not concern yourself, sir."

This superpower user was named Ling Chong, a Third Rank powerhouse, also a Mid-Tier Superhuman. In terms of strength, there were only two like him in the team.

Ling Chong was usually kind and generous, adept at gaining influence. In the local demon hunter circles, he had quite a reputation, which is why he led this mission to besiege the demon.

In fact, there was another Second Rank Upper Sequence superpower user in the team, sitting alone in a corner with only a right arm and carrying a heavy sword on his back.

The others didn’t seem to be aware of this demon hunter’s capabilities; otherwise, they wouldn’t neglect him so.

Wen Wen paid him extra attention, sensing that his aura was entirely different from the others, but he didn’t expose his strength.

"I wasn’t joking earlier; the pig demon’s strength is extraordinary. You may not even provide it a toothpick’s worth. Even if you don’t take me, I’ll follow, only then can your safety be ensured."

It seemed Wen Wen was advising earnestly, but the sharp aura already touched Ling Chong’s throat, leaving him no room to refuse.

After agreeing to act together, Wen Wen’s beef arrived. He grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, humming with satisfaction.

Back in the Federation, Wen Wen was very picky about food. This beef was only worth feeding Three Cubs.

But since coming to Da Song, Wen Wen ate only cabbage and radish day after day, almost losing his taste.

He continued shoving meat into his mouth while probing into the old monk’s technique of Crossing the River with a Reed. He had long wanted to flaunt it...

When Wen Wen persistently learned the Crossing the River with a Reed technique from the old monk, everyone was full and ready to set off to subdue the demon.

Among more than twenty demon hunters, there were only seven with Fourth Rank power or above, that is, assimilation realm superpower users.

These included a Second Rank one-armed swordsman, Ling Chong, and another Third Rank demon hunter, as well as four Fourth Rank demon hunters. The remaining dozen were all cannon fodder in Wen Wen’s view.

The pig demon wreaked the most havoc in a place called Gao Laozhuang, where the manor lord had a daughter resembling a pig or hippopotamus. The pig demon ordered the manor lord to offer her as his bride within seven days.

Though he couldn’t find a match for his daughter, the lord didn’t want her to become the pig demon’s wife, so he contacted some demon hunters. After being killed, it drew the attention of the Demon Hunter Alliance.

Today was the last day of the seven-day period. When the demon hunters arrived, the bride had already departed. The old manor lord, snot and tears flowing, begged Wen Wen and others to find his daughter.

Following the footprints, Wen Wen and company soon discovered a group of a dozen.

Eight burly men were laboriously carrying a sedan chair, slowly proceeding into the forest, led by a little yao demon with a valiant yet sneaky appearance.

Sweat dripped from the foreheads of the burly men, each step left a deep footprint in the ground, and the well-made sedan creaked...

Wen Wen glanced at the nearby Chun Ling, speculating she would have the same effect if seated inside. Truthfully, if not for the timely intervention, Wen Wen planned to use Chun Ling to lure out Zhu Pengpei.

After a while, the little demon grew impatient, blowing a gust of demonic wind at the sedan, which lightened it. The men carrying it sprinted swiftly, as if weightless.

Ling Chong saw the little demon’s trick and was slightly somber; this little demon seemed somewhat capable. Who knows what strength of the pig demon that subjugated it possesses?

Soon, everyone reached a gorge, where there was an open-air barbeque shop.

In the center a massive campfire roasted more than a dozen fat pigs, the oil dripped onto the charcoal below, sizzling and splattering.

The demon hunters hiding in the dark suddenly changed their expressions.

To ordinary people, those being roasted were fat pigs, but in the hunters’ eyes, they were all the recently missing wealthy landlords!

"Master Zhu Ganglie, the bride you requested, I have brought her," the little demon said respectfully.

A handsome man in a white robe walked out from a nearby grass hut, his mouth watering at the sight of the precious bride in the tent.

"The palanquin bearers and the wedding party, don’t rush back, I’ll treat everyone to some meat."

Zhu Ganglie clapped his hands, and a little demon carved large pieces of roasted meat from the ’fat pigs’ beside the campfire, offering it to the palanquin bearers.

In such hard times, they hadn’t eaten meat for ages, naturally unable to resist the temptation of pork.

Watching the palanquin bearers feast eagerly, the old monk gravely said:

"I recognize this Zhu Ganglie; he was a great demon from Da Song Thousand Blade Mountain with Second Rank strength; we might not be able to handle him."

Ling Chong looked at Wen Wen, confirming that Wen Wen’s prediction was right; they couldn’t deal with the demons here.

Wen Wen, however, lacked interest in the white-robed gentleman. His target was Zhu Pengpei, not Zhu Ganglie.

Could he have made an error?

No, the chain’s presence was nearby, and at that time, he had definitively bound the chain onto Zhu Pengpei.

As Wen Wen hesitated, a one-armed man moved away from the demon hunters, slowly approaching the fair-faced pig demon.

A little demon saw the man and immediately snarled, rushing forward to tear him apart with a claw.

Ling Chong and others wanted to assist, but Wen Wen held them back; he was curious about the one-armed man’s exact strength.

The little demon’s pounce was easily dodged by the one-armed man, with his longsword already unsheathed at some point. The little demon took two steps forward, its head fell to the ground.

And on the one-armed man’s sword, not a speck of blood.
