I work as a veterinarian in the mountains, and at the beginning of the game, I find Daji (a legendar

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6... Strange, what comes after 6?"

He kept cracking his fingers, and at the same time, countless drops of cold sweat, like the first urination of the morning, flowed out of Jin Yan's body in enormous quantities.

In just a short while, his clothes were completely soaked. Even his head looked like he had just washed it.

"That's strange, didn't you count correctly at the beginning?"

Seeing Jin Yan start counting again for who knows how many times, Daji finally interrupted him.

"Huh?" Raising his head, Jin Yan's face was full of a blank expression.

"It's nine! Nine!"

With a helpless sigh, Daji had thought her arithmetic was already quite bad, but she hadn't expected that compared to these golden crows, she was actually quite clever.

"How...how is this possible? You...you really are a nine-tailed fox?"

Jin Yan swallowed hard, utterly baffled as to why such a terrifying nine-tailed fox would exist in this deep mountain forest.

Moreover, judging from the color of the fox's fur, this nine-tailed fox is clearly not the White Flower Empress of Qingqiu...

Unfortunately, before Jin Yan could think any further, a ball of golden flame appeared in his field of vision.

"What's this?"

For some reason, as the golden flame drew ever closer, Jin Yan found himself completely unable to resist it.

"It's the Flame of Burning Souls~"

It wasn't until Daji's voice rang in his ears that Jin Yan suddenly shivered.

The next second, the golden flame had already attached itself to his body.

However, the golden flames did not burn his body. They simply merged into Jin Yan's body little by little.

As a result, his pupils began to dilate, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

Without even feeling the slightest pain, Jin Yan's three souls were completely annihilated within that ball of golden flames.

"He passed away so peacefully."

Daji reached out and checked Jin Yan's breath, and said this.

220. Pass on a message to your elder (4K)

"Monster!!!"

Seeing his two younger brothers die in an instant, and with his own power of the Great Sun being completely drained by Yuanbao, an unprecedented fear enveloped Jin Huo.

It should be noted that while Jin Huo's path to immortality was not exactly smooth sailing, he had never encountered such a huge setback.

He had never encountered a monster like this before, one that made it impossible for him to even muster the thought of resistance.

At that moment, Jin Huo felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless, icy abyss, as if he would never have the chance to see the light of day again.

"Why are you swearing? So, just because you can't beat someone, does that make you a monster?"

Dissatisfied, Yuanbao stepped on Jin Huo's head. He really couldn't stand the guy anymore.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with a dying man like you. You should go down and join your two younger brothers."

However, just as Yuanbao's halberd was about to sever Jinhuo's head, Chen Yuze's voice interrupted her actions.

Without further ado, Yuanbao summoned his halberd again and decided to give Jin Huo a quick death.

"Yuanbao, spare this guy's life."

“Okay, I’ll listen to Brother Yuze.” Yuanbao stopped his halberd just an inch away from Jin Huo’s neck and immediately took two steps back, retreating behind Chen Yuze, who was already standing beside him.

The girls didn't find Chen Yuze's request strange at all.

In their view, Chen Yuze was probably planning to do the same thing to the poor Golden Crow again—beat it half to death and then bring it back to life.

Although they didn't know what Chen Yuze's purpose was in doing this, after going through so much with him, the girls had long since gotten used to Chen Yuze's quirky sense of humor.

However, this time, the girls really misunderstood Chen Yuze.

After all, many Golden Crow girls are still waiting for him to treat them, and Chen Yuze doesn't have time to rack up his benevolence points on this Golden Fire.

The only reason he spared Jin Huo's life was to have the guy deliver a message.

"You said you are the fifteenth elder of your Golden Crow clan, right?"

Chen Yuze squatted down in a hooligan-like squatting position in front of Jin Huo, squinting his eyes as he grabbed Jin Huo's hair and lifted his head up.

For a moment, it was even difficult to tell who the villain was.

"I...I am the Fifteenth Elder..."

She nervously avoided Chen Yuze's gaze, and even her speech was somewhat stammering.

Jin Huo now looks exactly like a weak student being bullied by the school bully.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you."

He reached out his other hand and gently patted Jin Huo's face a few times. Even though Chen Yuze's voice was not much different from usual, it still gave Jin Huo goosebumps.

"All I need is for you to pass on a message to your Grand Elder."

"Please, please speak." With a fawning smile on his face, Jin Huo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that he only needed to relay one sentence to the Grand Elder.

He wasn't a particularly principled guy.

They won't fight you to the death just because their two younger brothers died.

For Jin Huo right now, survival is the most important thing.

Even if it means losing something very important, Jin Huo doesn't want to die like this.

After all, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death, isn't it?

"Then please tell your Grand Elder that if he dares to send people to disturb my life again, I don't mind making a trip to your Golden Crow Clan's territory myself and eliminating any future troubles. Believe me, what you saw today is just the tip of the iceberg of my full strength."

"Gurgle..."

With his Adam's apple bobbing, Jin Huo swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

It had nothing to do with cultivation level or the overflowing demonic energy fluctuations. But the oppressive feeling this man gave him far exceeded the oppressive feeling the Grand Elder gave to Jin Huo.

Even if this man does nothing, just standing there is enough to make people lose the will to resist.

"Those...those women of the Golden Crow clan..."

"They are all my honored guests, and I would also appreciate it if you could inform the Grand Elder."

After saying that, Chen Yuze helped Jin Huo up from the ground and 'kindly' straightened his collar: "Fifteenth Elder, have you remembered what I said?"

"I've got it."

Nodding, Jin Huo quickly repeated what Chen Yuze had just said.

"very good."

With a satisfied pat on Jin Huo's shoulder, Chen Yuze then gestured for him to proceed: "Fifteenth Elder, there's no time to lose, let's quickly convey my message to the First Elder."

"Can...can I really leave now?"

Jin Huo's heart pounded as he nervously looked around at the girls from Chen Yuze's family.

He was terrified.

He was afraid that if he took a step, he would be killed from behind.

Over the years, Jin Huo had seen more than once cases of people who claimed they would let people leave, only to stab them in the back the moment they left.

"What, does Elder Fifteen perhaps wish to come home with me and ask for a cup of tea before you leave?"

It wasn't until Chen Yuze's slightly impatient voice rang out again that Jin Huo, with a "nothing to lose" mentality, nervously took a step forward.

It's no exaggeration to say that with every step Jin Huo took, his heart would leap into his throat.

He was terrified of dying.

Fortunately, Chen Yuze didn't have the malicious pleasure of giving people hope only to crush it. After an unknown amount of time, Chen Huo finally managed to successfully cross the border of Changqing Mountain.

"Huff, huff..."

Gasping for breath, Jin Huo looked back at the seemingly ordinary but actually deadly Changqing Mountain behind him with lingering fear. After letting out a sigh of relief, he immediately used the little demonic power he had left to leave this terrifying and eerie place.

He vowed that no matter what, he would never set foot in Changqing Mountain again in his entire life.

……

"That's it?"

Staring dumbfounded in the direction Jin Huo had left, Jin Susu didn't even notice that her mouth hadn't closed since Chen Yuze reattached her severed arm.

"Well, the assassins sent by the Grand Elder have been dealt with. However, this matter is not completely over yet."

Chen Yuze lazily dozed off in front of the sun, then plopped down on the stool he had taken out earlier.

"Seventh Elder, could you please gather all the wounded who were injured in this attack? Regardless of the severity of their injuries, please bring them here. As a veterinarian, I have no reason to let you all stay in Changqing Mountain while you are covered in wounds."

"Mr. Chen, we can actually treat these minor injuries ourselves, so please don't trouble yourself."

Jin Susu was surprised by Chen Yuze's politeness and hesitated to decline.

After all, not only had he promised to protect them in the future, but he had also helped resolve the issue of Elder Fifteen and his group of three. Jin Susu was really too embarrassed to trouble Chen Yuze again.

However, before she could finish speaking, Chen Yuze immediately stood up from the stool:

"Seventh Elder, if you want to stay in Changqing Mountain permanently, there are still many projects waiting for you to do. In order not to affect the efficiency of building the settlement, you should just give in to me and call the wounded over."

You see, these are all living, breathing points of kindness. Chen Yuze wouldn't let them slip through his fingers.

"This……"

Upon hearing this, Jin Susu hesitated.

On the one hand, as Chen Yuze said, the construction of new settlements in the future will inevitably require a lot of manpower.

On the other hand, Jin Susu didn't want to trouble Chen Yuze too much.

"Seventh Elder, don't hesitate any longer."

Finally, Yuanbao offered a few words of comfort, which finally helped Jin Susu ease some of her burden.

“My brother Yuze is incredibly resourceful; he can heal a few wounded people in no time.”
