Fairy Hudao gave a disdainful snort. "If you can be so heartless, then consider me blind."
She turned her face away. She really couldn't bear to look at that useless Fairy Ziying. But in that instant of turning her head, her face suddenly changed drastically.
Noticing her expression, Yaohua followed her line of sight.
In the pure white snow, a thin stream of blood was slowly flowing down from a high place.
The three of them were instantly horrified.
Bang!
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
"Fairies, it's bad! The people from the North Village took advantage of our vulnerability. Many of our villagers have been killed!"
The surviving villagers gathered on the mountaintop. Immortal Muyang and the other three immortals walked over in a sorry state. Their expressions were ugly, as if they had lost their parents.
"Those sinful immortals have killed so many of us, and it's all because of you!"
A villager rushed in front of Fairy Hudao and threw a stone at her without hesitation.
"You still have the nerve to stand here!"
The suddenly enraged villager roused the resentment of the others. Fairy Hudao was soon surrounded.
"Calm down!" Fairy Ziying's voice was almost drowned out by the villagers' voices. Someone suddenly attacked, and she immediately fell to the ground, with blood oozing from her lower back.
Yaohua quickly helped her up. "How did you get injured?"
"A flesh - and - blood body, how could it not get injured?" Fairy Ziying sneered. As she looked up, she saw that the villagers and Fairy Hudao had already gotten into a fight.
Immortal Muyang tried to break up the fight but was punched in the eye socket. Soon there was a bruise. The other immortals were even more unlucky, with blue and red marks on their faces. One was pushed by a villager and fell face - first into the snow.
He struggled to get up from the ground and limped over to Fairy Ziying's side. "I can't stop them anymore."
This immortal had gentle and helpless eyebrows, and his tone was as soft as a gentle stream. When listening to him speak, Yaohua subconsciously held her breath, as if even breathing was an offense to him.
"If this fight continues, something bad will happen." Fairy Ziying firmly pushed away Yaohua's supporting hand, took out a strip of cloth, and wrapped it around her waist.
As soon as she finished speaking, a villager suddenly flew out.
Before Yaohua could react, she heard several more screams. The villagers were thrown aside by Fairy Hudao like dumplings.
Fairy Hudao's eyes were blood - red as she punched every person who tried to get close to her and hurt her, making them cry out in pain.
"Fairy, let me go."
Looking at Yaohua's slender body, Fairy Ziying shook her head. "Against Fairy Hudao, you'd be no match. She could take on ten like you."
Yaohua said, "I don't think it's that bad."
Fairy Ziying patted her hand and sighed slowly. "Young people should have some self - awareness."
Was Fairy Hudao really that powerful?
Just as Yaohua was feeling suspicious, Fairy Ziying said, "If you want to go, then go."
So should she go or not?
Yaohua hesitated and let go of her hand.
"Ouch, my poor back." Fairy Ziying mumbled and complained, while secretly glancing at Yaohua.
Yaohua had no choice but to walk in the direction of Fairy Hudao.
Fairy Hudao was filled with killing intent and hostility, but she was quite restrained in her actions, seemingly still considering that these people were all southern villagers.
Sensing someone approaching, she instinctively punched out.
Yaohua dodged. The next moment, Fairy Hudao suddenly rushed over.
From those blood - red eyes, Yaohua almost saw iron horses, icy rivers, mountains of knives, and seas of blood. The killing intent was like a mountain pressing down, making it hard for Yaohua to breathe.
She seemed to vaguely understand what Fairy Ziying had said just now.
In that moment of distraction, a cold hand suddenly grabbed Yaohua's neck, tightened suddenly, and then suddenly released the force.
"Are you a southern villager?"
The hoarse voice was like a dry desert. Every word was said with great difficulty and effort.
"Yes, yes, she is."
Fairy Ziying's voice came from the side. Fairy Hudao was in a daze for a moment, and then with Fairy Ziying's help, she let go of her hand.
Yaohua coughed non - stop.
She could feel that Fairy Hudao really wanted to kill her just now.
"Get out of here! Do you really want to die?"
Yaohua covered her neck and looked to the side. She saw the villagers with bruised faces approaching, their eyes full of hatred as if they wanted to kill Fairy Hudao, but they didn't dare to step forward because of Fairy Ziying's words.
"You're clearly from our southern village, but your every word and deed protects this sinful northern immortal. It's all because of you that so many people in our village have died!"
"That's right. And those seedlings before. If we hadn't listened to you, they wouldn't have all died!"
For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar, as if Fairy Ziying had committed the most heinous crime in the world.
"You—" Fairy Hudao was burning with anger and was about to step forward to argue, but Fairy Ziying stopped her.
Yaohua noticed that from the moment the first person stepped out to accuse Fairy Ziying, her usual nonchalant attitude suddenly became serious. The smile on her face faded completely, and her steady gaze swept across the faces of every villager who was accusing her.
"So what do you want to do? Expel me from the village? Or kill me?"
Either way, it wouldn't be a good thing for the villagers.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay and fell silent for a moment.
"I really didn't think carefully enough about the seedling incident, but I've already compensated you." Fairy Ziying felt strange. "It's true that Fairy Hudao is a sinful northern immortal, but she's been in our village for over a month. Don't you know how much she's done for you in this over a month?"
"You've always known my personality. But in this month, not a single one of you raised an objection and asked Fairy Hudao to leave our village."
As Fairy Ziying spoke, she couldn't help but laugh. "Why? Because she's been doing things for you, things you don't want to do. When she was doing those tiring things for you, you were happy. But now that something has happened, you want to push her out? Don't forget, the strength of the north and south villages is very different. The northern village hasn't invaded our southern village for many years, and it's not just because of ourselves."
It turned out that when Fairy Hudao was in the north, she had also secretly protected the south.
Fairy Ziying's expression was cold. "Everything we've experienced today should have happened several years ago. Blaming all this on one person, have your consciences all been eaten by dogs?"
Just as she finished speaking, a shower of arrows rained down.
Yaohua drew her sword and swept. The sword energy was like a whirlpool, entangling all the incoming arrows. The next moment, she shot them back in the direction they came from.
"What are you still standing there for?"
Fairy Ziying raised her willow eyebrows slightly. Her cold and sharp eyes swept across the stunned villagers, and she shouted, "Hurry up and hide!"
The villagers woke up like from a dream and quickly hid behind the rocks.
