“Don’t worry! Mr. Chen has the ability to deal with the Beast Horde in front!” Wenren Muyue caught up with them, and was running next to Linghu Shuang.

　　“How is that possible? Even if Mr. Chen is Diamond-ranked, humans could never win a fight against Demonic Beasts of the same rank!”

　　Linghu Shuang’s brows were knitted together, and worry was written all over her face.

　　“What is your relationship with Mr. Chen? Why are you so concerned for him?”

　　There was complicated mixture of emotion in Wenren Muyue’s eyes.

　　“Mr. Chen is my savior! Of course, I do not wish to see anything bad happen to him!” Linghu Shuang said.

　　“That’s it? There’s nothing else between the two of you? You seemed to chatting very amiably with each other just now!” Wenren Muyue asked.

　　“Anything else?” Linghu Shuang paused for a moment, and then broke into laughter. “Sister! Are you jealous? Mr. Chen and I have only met once! After he saved me, we did not contact each other at all! It’s not what you think! We don’t share that kind of relationship!”

　　“I… Who said I was jealous? I was just asking.” Wenren Muyue blushed into a red tomato as she tried to explain herself. But even she did not sound convincing to herself.

　　Could she really have fallen for Chen Xiaobei? Why else would she be suspicious of Linghu Shuang for his sake? If that was not jealousy, then what was it?

　　“Sister! There’s no need to pretend! I’m not a child! I can tell what’s going on with you!” Linghu Shuang smiled. “You and Mr. Chen are a perfect match! I can see through your heart!”

　　“What is it?” Wenren Muyue asked, surprised.

　　“Mr. Chen is good looking, honorable and compassionate! But more importantly, he is a very strong and capable man who does great things! A man like this… even if he’s willing to commit to a relationship, his personality and charm would still attract countless ladies to his side! If you get all worked up because of me, I’m afraid you’ll be spending the rest of your life with the green-eyed monster!”

　　“You silly little girl! That’s just nonsense!” Wenren Muyue’s lips twitched.

　　She was not sure if she really was jealous. But the way Linghu Shuang talked about her was as if Wenren Muyue was going to be with Chen Xiaobei for the rest of her life.

　　“My god! Look! Look in front!” Linghu Shuang suddenly shouted.

　　A few hundred meters ahead, blood red light showered the whole area, changing even the color of the sky! It was as if the gates to hell had opened, and reapers were charging out from it to reap all the living souls.

　　Wenren Muyue lifted her eyes, no longer surprised. “That’s Mr. Chen. We should continue moving forward! That Beast Horde is already destroyed!”

　　“Destroyed? Is Mr. Chen really that strong?” Linghu Shuang gasped.

　　She knew that Chen Xiaobei had some special abilities but she never thought that would have an ability this great!

　　The blood red light was obviously the Blood God’s Deity-Killing painting.

　　There were only a few Demonic Beasts blocking the entrance into the canyon. When the whole group of people arrive there, the fight, as Wenren Muyue had said, had already ended. All of the Demonic Beasts were destroyed, and none were spared!

　　Linghu Shuang found herself marveling at her new knowledge of Chen Xiaobei.

　　With the danger resolved, Chen Xaiobei began to collect the bodies of the Demonic Beasts and their Cores. If he decided to sell them, even Gu Congwen would not be able to afford them all if he emptied his pockets!

　　After that, the whole group slowly settled into the canyon.

　　It was very spacious as Linghu Shuang had said, with enough room to house one million people.

　　The Demonic Beasts inside the canyon were also slaughtered, so the canyon was the safest place they could be in.

　　“Next, what we have to do is to guard the entrance!” Linghu Shuang stood next to Chen Xiaobei. “We only need to hold out for three days until my sifu can rush over to rescue everyone!”

　　“Three days? Are you kidding?” Chen Xiaobei looked at her like she was being incredulous. “I’m afraid we won’t even be able to hold on for three hours!”

　　“All the portals are broken. The fastest my sifu can get here is three days!” Linghu Shuang frowned. “If it was not for saving all of you, I could have hidden for three days on my own without a problem!”

　　“I know. All this is thanks to you that we are even able to get here! You are a good, loyal friend! But there’s no way we can hide in here for three days! Look outside! The rest of the Demonic Beasts will probably get here in less than three minutes!”

　　Looking out from inside the canyon, clouds of dust kicked into the air as the ground trembled. Needless to say, the one million Demonic Beasts were charging towards them.

　　If they could not defend the entrance, all the people inside the canyon would be trapped like sardines in a can with no place to run.

　　“Use that move you just did! It’s so powerful! Why worry about these Demonic Beasts?” Linghu Shuang said.

　　“To tell you the truth, the Blood God’s Deity-Killing painting is my strongest trump card. It can kill any enemy with a cultivation less than a demigod! When the three demigod level Demonic Beasts arrives, my trump card will be completely useless!”

　　Linghu Shuang said nothing. Her beautiful eyes pondering. “I have an idea! Come with me!”

　　The lass grabbed Chen Xaiobei’s hand and ran to the entrance of the canyon.

　　When Wenren Muyue saw this, she could taste a bitterness in her mouth, like when she saw Chen Xiaobei and Linghu Shuang chatting merrily.

　　Could that really be envy?

　　At the entrance of the canyon.

　　Chen Xiaobei blurted, “Girl! What idea is it that you have! Tell me now! The Demonic Beasts are arriving soon!”

　　“Let me tell you a story!” Linghu Shuang said.

　　Chen Xiaobei wiped the sweat off his brow. “Hey grandma! Do you think I’m in the mood to listen to a story right now?”

　　“My idea is within the story!” Linghu Shuang said calmly.

　　“Fine, fine, fine! Go ahead and tell it now!” Chen Xiaobei said, his voice thick with panic.

　　“About 1800 years ago, there was a one of a kind kickass Military Advisor called Zhuge Liang! He had an enemy called Sima Yi…” Linghu Shuang had only just began her story when she was cut off.

　　“Are you talking about the Empty Fort Strategy?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

　　“My god! You know this story?! My Sifu told me the story! Most people don’t know this story!” Linghu Shuang stared at Chen Xiaobei.

　　Chen Xiaobei raised an eyebrow at her. “I am a Chinese! Back in China, even toddlers in kindergartens know this story!”

　　“Wow! You are a Chinese?! I really admire Chinese people!” Linghu Shuang’s mouth formed an ‘O’.

　　“There’s no need to get so excited about this small little thing! Are you trying to ask me to use the Empty Fort Strategy?”
