Leon wasn't intimidated, but his expression was rather unpleasant.

The stronger the opponent, the more variables may arise, and a head-on battle may ensue if things go wrong.

Leon is not afraid of them, but the power levels in the world of Monster Hunt are not as simple as imagined. The Monster Hunt in the movie is just the tip of the iceberg.

A level six demon king is no problem to deal with, but the existence of a level ten celestial master or a level nine or ten great demon king cannot be ruled out.

The mask can increase your strength by three levels, with the highest level allowing you to unleash the power of an eighth or ninth-level demon king.

There are too many variables, and the plot has been altered to a large extent. It's hard to imagine whether the following events will unfold as in the movie, and it might even alarm the so-called level nine demon king.

After all, Yongning Village is located too far from the core area of ​​the human race.

"Have you noticed where all the villagers in our village have gone? And why are these people rushing into the houses and pulling out monsters? Where are all the villagers?"

Just as Leon was deep in thought, Song Tianyin couldn't help but speak up.

Upon hearing Song Tianyin's question, Huo Xiaolan waved her hand impatiently and said:

"Stop looking. Your villagers are probably these monsters. I never imagined that everyone in Yongning Village, except you, would be a monster!"

"Monster, this can't be! I've lived here for over ten years!"

Song Tianyin looked incredulous, and just then, two Taoist priests dragged a person out of a door that had been kicked open.

"Xiao Wu, this is my best friend Xiao Wu, how did they manage to capture him too!"

Seeing the person being dragged out, Song Tianyin looked astonished, but the answer was obvious.

As the two celestial masters dragged him out, Xiao Wu struggled as he walked, and his skin began to wrinkle.

Then, under Song Tianyin's wide eyes, Xiao Wu's human skin was slowly peeled off, turning him into a green monster.

When the answer that Xiao Wu was a monster was revealed, Song Tianyin was somewhat bewildered.

You see, in Song Tianyin's memory, Xiao Wu was someone he had played with since childhood. If Xiao Wu really was a monster, how come he hadn't noticed anything all these years?

"Now you understand!"

Seeing Song Tianyin's dazed expression, Huo Xiaolan patted him heavily on the shoulder and whispered:

"Demons are the most cunning and treacherous! They wear human skin, speak human language, and act like humans. They are all masters of disguise. You silly boy, you've been fooled for over ten years without even realizing it. You're hopeless!"

"How could this be? Where have all my villagers gone! I don't believe it, this must be a smokescreen, I don't believe it!"

After more than a decade of living and working together, he was now surrounded by a horde of demons, which dealt a heavy blow to Song Tianyin's spirit.

This blow was even more unbearable for Song Tianyin than his own pregnancy, because it was blatant deception.

"It's noisy."

Before Song Tianyin could fully erupt in anger, Leon suddenly slammed his hand behind his back and knocked Song Tianyin unconscious.

The next second, the excited Song Tianyin collapsed to the ground.

On the other side, Leon frowned slightly in displeasure, glanced at Huo Xiaolan who was sticking out her tongue and acting pitiful, and said in a deep voice:

"What are you trying to do? Is it meaningful to provoke him?"

"I just said it casually, who knew he would react so strongly!"

Huo Xiaolan lowered her head, not daring to look Leon in the eye, and fidgeted with the hem of her clothes.

"You!"

Leon shook his head slightly, stood up and said, "Let's switch to another instance. Everything is about to begin."

"What?"

Chapter 237, Ancient Town Tavern, Celestial Masters Everywhere. (Second update, please subscribe)

Silent all night.

The two traveled through the night, even with Song Tianyin as a burden, and by dawn they had covered hundreds of miles and entered the territory of Xuanqi Prefecture.

"Hey, can we stop and rest now? We've already arrived at Xuanqi Prefecture!"

Looking exhausted, Huo Xiaolan panted as she looked at Leon, as if she couldn't walk any further.

Leon carried the unconscious Song Tianyin, his feet sliding on the ice as if he had no weight, like flowing water.

"There's an ancient town just ahead, hang in there a little longer."

Leon spoke casually, pointing to the place where smoke was rising in the distance, without turning his head.

Hearing this, Huo Xiaolan was extremely unwilling, but she had no choice but to follow.

The two, along with the unconscious Song Tianyin, embarked on their journey once more, traversing mountains and valleys towards the distance.

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that the two sides arrived at an ancient town.

The ancient town, built against the mountain, has a gatehouse at its entrance with a plaque bearing the name of the village or town.

Taiping Town.

Seeing the sign and the passersby, Huo Xiaolan, who had been walking for most of the night, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is Taiping Town, the most bustling place within a hundred miles. Let's hurry, I'm starving after running all night!"

Huo Xiaolan rubbed her stomach, sniffing the air gently, and couldn't help but lick her lips.

Leon glanced around, then put down Song Tianyin's hand.

"W-where is this?"

Song Tianyin awoke from his deep sleep in no time.

Upon waking, he groggily looked around, then seemed to remember something and jumped up:

"Yongning Village, my Yongning Village... Ouch, my stomach, my stomach hurts so much!"

It seems the movement was too vigorous, causing a reaction in the fetus.

Song Tianyin was writhing on the ground in pain, clutching her nine-month pregnant belly, which attracted the pointing and whispering of passersby.

"Let's go, this isn't the place to talk!"

Not wanting to be watched, Leon pulled Song Tianyin along and headed towards the restaurant in the distance.

The restaurants in Taiping Town were worlds apart from Song Tianyin's own teahouse.

The three-story restaurant, with its flags waving, was magnificent and opulent.

Before Leon and his two companions could even step inside, a waiter came out to greet them, his face full of flattery: "Oh, three distinguished guests, are you here for a meal or to stay overnight?"

“We’ll eat and stay at the hotel!” Leon replied casually, and instead of going to the private room on the second floor, he found a seat on the first floor and sat down.

As he sat down in the restaurant, Leon casually glanced around, only to have his brow furrow immediately.

The restaurant's main hall was packed with at least twenty tables, and it was overflowing with people.

However, what caught Leon's attention was that most of the people eating here were Taoist priests wearing copper coins, which made him stand out.

It's true that being a Taoist priest is a mainstream profession in the Demon Catcher series.

But it wasn't so mainstream that a restaurant in a small town could house twenty or thirty Taoist masters.

“Strange, more than twenty Celestial Masters gathered together, something big must have happened. Go and ask them what happened.”

Leon gave Huo Xiaolan an order, and Huo Xiaolan reluctantly put down her teacup and placed her Celestial Master's Coin in the most conspicuous position.

"Brother, has something serious happened? Why are so many people gathered here?"

Huo Xiaolan's identity as a second-ranking Taoist priest was like a ticket, allowing her to blend in with the other Taoist priests present.

Upon hearing Huo Xiaolan's question, a bald Taoist priest who was drinking glanced at the copper coins on Huo Xiaolan's body and said, "Last night, someone offered a reward of five hundred taels of silver to find someone."

"Five hundred taels to find one person, that's a huge sum!" Huo Xiaolan was extremely surprised. Five hundred taels of silver was the price of a level five or six monster.

So much silver, just to find a living person, no wonder so many Taoist masters have gathered here.

"Big brother, what does the person we're looking for look like?"

Huo Xiaolan's professional instincts kicked in, and she wanted to see who was so unlucky as to have a bounty placed on their head.

"Here it is!" The bald-headed Taoist priest didn't care and casually slapped a wanted poster on the table.

The wanted poster, slapped on the table, featured a half-length portrait with a name written below.

Huo Xiaolan didn't care at first, but when she saw the names on it, she was completely stunned.

"This, this..."

"What, you've seen this person before?"

"No no."

Huo Xiaolan shook her head repeatedly, as if she had been run over by a vicious dog, and quickly ran back to the dining table where Leon was.

Sitting at the dining table, Huo Xiaolan's chest heaved, and she looked at Song Tianyin as if he were two gold ingots.

"Have you asked clearly?"

Leon took a sip of tea and asked without looking up.
