This caused the village chief to look conflicted. More than ten years ago, this black-clothed man suddenly came to their village. Immediately after, people began to disappear inexplicably. This had lasted for more than ten years. The other party had warned Tangkou Village not to report it to the officials or do any small tricks. Otherwise, they would kill them all.
And recently, someone from Tangkou Village finally couldn't hold it in any longer and made a trip to Eastern Cloud Sect. Only then did Eastern Cloud Sect send Tang Jie over.
Now that the other party had promised to help him deal with Tang Jie, he would leave Tangkou Village. This was undoubtedly a huge temptation for Tangkou Village, which had been shrouded in gloom for more than ten years!
"Put this Bewitching God in his food and tea, then tie him up and bring him here. Be obedient, or I'll slaughter all of your Tangkou Village!”The man in black outside the window said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a small porcelain bottle flew into the room, and the man in black disappeared into the darkness.
The village chief picked up the small porcelain bottle on the ground, his eyes filled with struggle.
"Deng!"
On this night, Tang Jie was quietly cultivating in a room in Tangkou Village. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Tang Jie opened his eyes and opened the door. There were a few people standing outside the door. They were all villagers of Tangkou Village. The white-bearded old man in the lead was the village chief of Tangkou Village.
"Young hero, you must help us!”The moment he saw Tang Jie, Village Chief's knees went weak and he knelt on the ground.
This made Tang Jie frown and his face darkened."If you have something to say, say it. If you insist, I'll leave immediately!”
Only then did Village Chief stand up. His eyes were slightly red as he said," Young hero…I'll tell you everything. It's like this…That villain wants us to deal with you and hand you over to him…"
The Village Chief told Tang Jie everything that had happened. Tang Jie was also a little surprised when he heard the Village Chief's words.
The frequent disappearance of people in this village was most likely not the work of demons, but man-made.
The fact that the Village Chief was unwilling to help the man in black kill Tang Jie was also beyond Tang Jie's expectations.
But thinking about it carefully, the Village Chief's choice was not strange. Firstly, even if they helped the black-clothed man to kill Tang Jie, the black-clothed man might not let them go.
Secondly, Tang Jie was a disciple of Eastern Cloud Sect. If something happened to him, Eastern Cloud Sect would definitely send people to investigate. At that time, Tangkou Village would not be able to calm down.
Thus, after thinking about it, Village Chief still decided to trust Eastern Cloud Sect and tell them the truth.
"You guys aren't stupid!"
Tang Jie glanced at Village Chief and the others and said indifferently.
If these people really poisoned him, he would not succeed at all. Moreover, with Tang Jie's character, he would not repay evil with good!
Village Chief said worriedly," Young hero, you must help us. Please invite a few more experts from Eastern Cloud Sect. That demon has remarkable abilities and is not easy to deal with."”
Village Chief and the others were worried that Tang Jie would not be able to deal with the demon, so they wanted Tang Jie to invite more experts.
"Don't worry. I don't put such a rat in my eyes.”
Tang Jie shook his head.
If it was before, Tang Jie would not have been completely sure that he could deal with the person in the dark. However, the other party had even used the method of coercing the villagers to poison him. From this point, it could be seen that the person who caused trouble in Tangkou Village was not a powerful character.
Otherwise, if the other party was strong enough and knew that Tang Jie, an outer sect disciple of the Eastern Cloud Sect, had arrived, how could he possibly use such a method that would cause a change in the situation?
"Alright, I'll pretend to be hit. Take me to him.”
Tang Jie immediately told Village Chief and the others to bring him to see the black-clothed man.
" Yes..." Although they were worried that Tang Jie could deal with the demon who had shrouded Tangkou Village like a layer of haze for more than ten years, they had no choice but to believe Tang Jie.
Tang Jie pretended to be unconscious. A few strong young men in the village carried him out of Tangkou Village.
The desolate forest one or two miles away from Tangkou Village was the meeting place that the demon had agreed on.
"Strange, the temperature in this forest is exceptionally low.”As soon as he entered the forest, Tang Jie was slightly shocked. His senses were very sharp. Although it was late at night, the weather was hot. However, as soon as he entered the forest, the temperature clearly dropped and became very cold.
Village Chief and the others also shivered. This desolate forest was very strange. In addition, the demons had occupied this place. None of them had dared to approach it all these years.
"He's here."
Tang Jie closed his eyes because he heard a slight sound and knew that the demon had appeared.
As expected, a man in a black robe appeared in the darkness in the distance. He wore a hood and looked very mysterious. However, from his hunched body, it was obvious that he was an old man.
Seeing this person, the eyes of Village Chief and the others revealed fear and faint anger.
After all, it was this black-robed man who had caused more than a dozen people in Tangkou Village to go missing. He had also caused everyone in Tangkou Village to frown for more than a decade. If it were not for the fact that it was difficult to ensure their survival in the outside world after leaving Tangkou Village, they would definitely have left.
"Sir, we've brought him here according to your instructions," the village chief said respectfully.”
"Is that so?" the black-robed man asked in a hoarse voice.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange look flashed in the black-robed man's eyes. He suddenly raised his hand and shot out three silver needles from his sleeve. They shot towards Tang Jie, who was pretending to be unconscious, and the two young men who were holding him!
"Hmm? Be careful!"
Tang Jie heard the sound of air being torn apart. He immediately opened his eyes and lashed out with his sleeve at lightning speed.
"Crack!"
The three silver needles were deflected by Tang Jie.
Village Chief and the others were so frightened that they retreated continuously. They knew that things were not good. According to the original plan, Tang Jie would pretend to be unconscious to make the black-robed man let down his guard. Then, Tang Jie would wait for an opportunity to attack and finish him off.
However, he did not expect that the black-robed man was very cautious. He chose to attack from a distance and use hidden weapons.
" We can only face him head-on…" Tang Jie was also helpless. He wanted to save some strength, but he did not expect this black-robed man to be so cunning.
When the black-robed man saw Tang Jie open his eyes, his voice was hoarse and filled with coldness. He looked at the village chief and the others fiercely."How dare you lie to me? I'll fulfill my promise and kill all the people in Tangkou Village!”
