Chapter 239: Group Night Watch
The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be summoned and began to gather from all directions.
These spiritual energies quickly gathered together like a surging torrent, gradually forming an amazing huge fireball.
This fireball is like a burning sun, emitting extremely high temperature and dazzling light.
Suddenly, the fireball exploded as if a fuse was lit!
In an instant, an extremely dazzling light shot towards the demon species like lightning.
After being hit by this sudden light, the demons immediately let out howls of extreme pain.
Under the illumination of the light, their ugly and twisted bodies began to melt away at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It was like accumulated snow encountering a scorching flame, powerless to resist.
However, there are still some lucky demons who escaped.
Seeing that the situation was not good, these guys immediately turned around and tried to escape from the battlefield which was like a sea of fire.
Dai Yan and Ye Linfeng rushed into the group of demons again without hesitation and started a pursuit.
The agile giant white cat and white fairy also launched a pincer attack from the left and right sides respectively, leaving the demons no chance to breathe.
After a fierce and brutal fight, finally, with everyone working together and closely coordinating their powerful offensive.
The remaining demons could no longer escape the fate of destruction and turned into wisps of black smoke and dissipated into the air.
With the disappearance of the last demon, the thick dark clouds that originally covered the night sky gradually dissipated, revealing the brilliant starry sky.
The bright moonlight poured down on the earth like mercury, illuminating the people who had just experienced a life-and-death struggle.
The snow on the ground, which was not very thick to begin with, is now basically gone.
At this moment, everyone was exhausted and out of breath, but they still supported each other and slowly walked back into the house.
Although everyone's face was filled with deep fatigue.
As soon as they entered the house, everyone collapsed on the sofa.
Shu Wanwan looked at the starry sky outside the window and said softly, "Thanks to everyone today, otherwise I really don't know how to deal with these demons."
Bai Xian smiled and said, "It should be so."
At this moment, the silent giant white cat transformed into a handsome young man. He suddenly spoke, "This demon attack is quite strange."
Bai Xian also agreed: "Indeed, I feel like there is a force behind them driving them."
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Dai Yan clenched her fists and said, "No matter what power it is, if you dare to do it again, I will not let you off easily."
Bai Xuan walked to Dai Yan's side and slowly input spiritual power into Dai Yan's body.
At this moment, a strange light suddenly flashed outside the house.
Everyone stood up alertly, ready to fight again.
Ye Linfeng rushed out first to check, but found nothing.
"Why is there nothing here?" Ye Linfeng returned to the house and said to everyone.
After hearing what Ye Linfeng said, everyone had more doubts in their hearts.
Bai Xian walked to the door and carefully looked around again. Apart from the quiet night and twinkling stars, there was nothing unusual.
Bai Xian came back and just shook his head.
After making sure it was safe, everyone fell silent.
At this time, Gu Yanchuan spoke, his brows furrowed, and he felt a wave of fear in his heart, "Did these demons come from my family?"
Shu Wanwan shook her head. "Probably not. I've completely wiped out my presence in your family."
"But it's very similar to the demonic auras you encountered in your villa."
Shu Wanwan thought for a while and came to a conclusion, "It should be the blond and blue-eyed man in the black robe."
"Then...then..." Gu Yanchuan was about to speak, but then he quickly turned his back, "A-choo..."
Then Gu Yanchuan turned around and touched his head a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry."
It was obvious that after staying up late for a long time and going through so much recently, Gu Yanchuan's immunity had decreased and he had caught a cold.
Jiang Jingchen smiled and patted Gu Yanchuan on the shoulder. "I'll go make some soup for you to warm you up. You guys go ahead and talk."
Gu Yanchuan nodded, then said to Shu Wanwan, "Will that black-robed man attack again?"
"I don't know," Shu Wanwan shook her head, "but this should be his last trump card."
Why exactly?
No one can figure it out.
Everyone fell silent again. Everything was unknown and shrouded in mystery.
"No matter what, we can't take it lightly." Bai Xuan slowly withdrew his palm, withdrew his spiritual power, and when he was almost healed, he spoke.
"Yes, Bai Xuan is right." Dai Yan agreed.
Everyone feels the same way.
"I'll be on guard today." Ye Linfeng said.
"I'll go with you." Dai Yan said.
"In that case, let's divide into groups and keep watch together." Bai Xuan continued.
Everyone agreed and finally decided that the first group would be Dai Yan and Ye Linfeng, the second group would be Gu Yanchuan and Bai Xuan, and the third group would be Jiang Jingchen and Shu Wanwan.
Bai Xian was given a bye as a reserve force.
At this time, Jiang Jingchen came back with the soup and distributed it to everyone, which warmed everyone up a lot.
"In a little while, I'm going to go with that uncle to collect the talismans posted at the gate of the villa."
After Bai Xuan drank the last mouthful of the delicious and rich soup with satisfaction, he slowly raised his head and said contentedly.
However, at this moment, Shu Wanwan replied softly, "My spiritual energy consumption just now was not that great, so it is quite easy to recover these talismans."
As soon as she finished speaking, she gently waved her white hand.
In an instant, the talismans that were originally scattered in various corners around seemed to have received some kind of summons, and began to fly rapidly from all directions one after another!
They drew graceful arcs in the air, as if a group of well-trained birds were returning to their owner and landed in Shu Wanwan's hands.
"In that case, everyone should go back to your rooms and rest after drinking the soup. Ye Linfeng and I will be responsible for the first round of vigil tonight." Dai Yan said softly.
After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, then stood up one after another and walked towards their respective rooms.
For a moment, the only sounds in the living room were light footsteps and the sound of doors closing.
Soon, the first group of night watchmen were in place, and Dai Yan and Ye Linfeng sat side by side on the spacious and comfortable sofa.
The night was as dark as ink and everything around was quiet, as if the whole world had fallen asleep.
Apart from the occasional faint sound of wind coming from a distance, there was no other sound.
Dai Yan's beautiful eyes were always fixed on the door, not daring to relax at all.
She paid close attention to any movement outside the door, afraid of missing any abnormal situation.
Ye Linfeng sat quietly beside her. He turned his head slightly and looked at Dai Yan, who had a serious face beside him, and a feeling of heartache surged in his heart.
He gently stretched out his hand, carefully supported Dai Yan's head, and let her slowly lean on his broad and warm shoulders.
"You should take a rest too." Ye Linfeng said softly.
Dai Yan didn't say anything, but her body did indeed go from tense to relaxed, becoming much more natural.
"Actually, I find it a little strange." Dai Yan spoke softly.
"What's strange about that?" Ye Linfeng responded to Dai Yan's words.
"Although the demon's attack this time is very powerful, I feel it is not half as powerful as the attack of the black-robed man we met in the cave before." Dai Yan replied.
Dai Yan paused and continued, "I always feel something is different."
Ye Linfeng pondered for a moment, "Perhaps the black-robed man has other plans, and this is just a test?"
Dai Yan sat up slightly and said, "It's possible. If that's the case, then the subsequent attacks will probably be even more fierce."
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a slight rustling sound coming from outside.
They looked at each other warily and stood up at the same time.
Ye Linfeng signaled Dai Yan to be careful and quietly approached the door.
When he looked out through the crack in the door, he only saw a wild cat running by.
He breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the sofa.
"It was a false alarm." Ye Linfeng said as he sat down.
Dai Yan still looked worried, "I hope it's just a false alarm, but we can't be careless."
Time passed slowly and the night grew deeper.
Two hours passed, everything was quiet and nothing happened.
Two hours later, Bai Xuan woke up, ran to Gu Yanchuan's room, woke Gu Yanchuan up, and came to take over the shift with the two of them.
"How is it?" Bai Xuan asked Dai Yan.
"Everything is normal." Dai Yan replied.
"Alright, you two go get some rest, we're here to guard it."
Gu Yanchuan patted Ye Linfeng's shoulder, but Gu Yanchuan himself was still sleepy and looked like he had not woken up yet.
