My Master Disconnected Yet Again

“No, she can’t be…” The color of blood completely disappeared from the squirrel’s face. “The tiger demon said clearly that she could be exchanged for before the sun came out… clearly… Wah….”

Seeing that it was about to start crying again, Lonemoon rapidly filled its mouth with a fruit. It was a good demon, it was just too noisy!

“Little Mushroom, you…” He was just about to comfort it a little, when he suddenly felt a wave of demonic aura coming from the left side of the woods.

“It’s the direction of the town!” reminded Yi Qing.

“Go back!” Lonemoon casually picked up the squirrel demon, turned and started flying towards that direction on his sword.

Before they came near, they heard a loud rumble, and some terrified cries. Outside the wall of the town, a huge tiger suddenly appeared. It looked to have already reached the fifth level. Its original body stood up to about the same height as the walls. At that time, it was attacking those thick walls with its front claws. Immediately, many bricks and stones fell to the ground, and the wall of defense was about to collapse upon its attack.

“Tiger… Tiger… Tiger King!” The squirrel recognized it with just one look. Its body shivered.

Lonemoon’s eyes darkened. This saved them the time of looking for it. “Chef, it’s time to put up an advertisement.”

“Yes.” Yi Qing nodded and was about to call out his sword.

“Never mind, I will go!” Lonemoon suddenly changed his mind and threw the squirrel to him casually. “If you go, it will be done within one wave of the sword.” Advertising had to be magnificent, of course. The more high-end, the more astonishing, the better.

At that time, the tiger demon below had already made the city wall collapse. The people of the town fled in panic. The tiger demon roared loudly, leaped up, opened its big red mouth and was about to bite into the crowd. Suddenly, a golden light flashed.

A translucent barrier suddenly appeared in front of the crowd. Countless arrays appeared in the sky, shining with bright golden light which covered the whole town instantly. That barrier grew larger and larger, directly wrapping the whole town inside.

“Tiger demon, don’t you do evil!” A low male voice seemed to come from the edge of the sky, filling everyone’s ears instantly.

Seeing that the tiger demon couldn’t surpass that barrier however hard it banged, the crowd which was at first in panic quietened instantly. Everyone looked up to the sky in shock. Only then did they see a man in flowing white clothes, standing upon the clouds, white light covering his body, making people unable to see him clearly, but naturally feel a sense of distance, the kind towards something too high to be reachable.

Yi Qing and Shen Ying sneaked into the crowd in silence and watched the large-scale show-off scene of Father Niu together.

Lonemoon’s hands turned to make another seal. Immediately, another array appeared and fell down right towards the tiger demon underneath. A huge pressure crushed towards the demon down below. Its standing was destabilized instantly, and it was about to be suppressed down on the ground.

As though understanding that it couldn’t overcome its opponent, the tiger demon turned in an attempt to escape. The person in the sky waved a hand, and a row of swords fell from the sky immediately, directly cutting off its way. One of them actually fell on its front claws. The tiger demon let out a cry of pain immediately.

That ethereal voice came once again. “Tiger demon, you are full of bloody grievous energy, breaking prohibitions, eating humans harms and threatens the region. Today, I will help the people of this town get rid of you scourge!”

With that said, he made a single-handed seal. Instantly, a huge sword appeared in the sky. It shone with golden light so bright that it was blinding. The tiger demon was terrified, and tried to run, but it couldn’t move under the suppression of sword qi. It could only look at the giant sword falling down directly. The tiger demon’s breathing stopped instantly.

All the townspeople froze in astonishment. After a long while, they were finally able to react. Their faces were full of excitement.

“That monster… is dead! That monster really is dead!”

“It’s so good, we don’t need to run anymore. He saved us, he killed that monster!”

“That person can actually fly. And he can kill such a big monster.”

“Yeah! And those things just now… What is he after all?”

“Could he be… be… uh… be…”

The crowd couldn’t figure out anything after a long while. Shen Ying who was looking on at the side smoothly finished the sentence for them.

“He’s a god!”

The crowd was stunned, and then came to a sudden realization. They started shouting even more excitedly.

“Yes, yes. He’s a god, definitely a god. A god has come to save us!”

“Only gods can do such godly deeds. He’s definitely a god.”

“A god has come down to to help us subdue the monster!”

The more they talked, the more excited they became. Some had already bowed towards Lonemoon’s direction.

Shen Ying finally continued to nibble at her fruit. Hmm, how important was a supporter!

Seeing that the effect of advertising was pretty much achieved, Lonemoon finally dispersed the arrays all around, only keeping a few spells to illuminate the area, creating the atmosphere and showing off. After that, he finally looked down at the townspeople on their knees on the ground, while keeping his deep and incomprehensible business expression. He said with the same ethereal voice,

“You don’t have to bow to me. I came across this place on my way and did it without difficulty. Perhaps I am fated with this place, I shall give you some advice.” He sighed and continued, “Right now, demons run free in the human world. Those predestined by fate can go to the immortal mountain in the East to ask for Dao from immortals, learn about the ways of overcoming demons, and solve this problem.”

After that, he said no more, but turned and started flying towards the East on his sword. Soon, his figure had disappeared Even that dream-like light in the sky slowly dissipated, only leaving a huge tiger corpse outside the town gate.

The crowd looked at one another, and they started recalling the god’s words before he left. To look for immortals, ask for Dao and learn about the ways to overcome demons. Did God mean that ordinary humans can also learn about immortal magic? Everyone’s eyes brightened, and their face lit up with expectation.

——————

A hundred yards away.

“Can we go home and cook?” Shen Ying leaned on the rock at one side, not wanting to move any more.

“Of course not!” refused Lonemoon.

“Hmm?” Shen Ying was stunned. I thought the advertising was done?

“How can advertising only once work? There’s no Twitter here, the information transmission is slow. We have to go to more places and let everyone know about the matter of cultivation.” He turned to look at the two people who only worked once as supporter throughout the whole time. “I alone will be enough for this matter, you both can’t help anyway.”

As he talked, he tore a person from the rock and threw her to Chef. “You both go to the place chosen last time, plant the immortal vein and build up the sect first.”

“There’s no problem with planting the immortal vein.” Yi Qing frowned and answered. “But the houses…” Who’s building it?

Lonemoon was stunned, only just realizing this problem.

Yi Qing frowned and said casually, “The places we lived in the past had already been there. The only one built was built by Rabbit. But we don’t have Rabbit now…”

As he finished, three pairs of eyes turned together towards a certain little squirrel who sold mushrooms.

The squirrel shivered and immediately shook its head violently. “I… I can only plant mushrooms.”

What do we want you for? This was the most useless small animal they had ever picked up.
