Am I in trouble?

In the southern continent located between the northern continent lies the Demon beast forest with a vast expanse stretching out for millions of miles.

Many Demon beasts wave rush out once every year causing a bloodbath between humans and beasts, resources are scarce in the northern continent, it was a barren land with a cold temperature and the weak demon beast is weeded out by a stronger beast.

Although the environment was harsh there were rare high-quality resources and many unexplored areas located between both continents which made it suitable for humans and low lvl demon beasts to fight for resources.

In one of the many borders stood a bustling city, with a huge gate protected by layers of formation,

This gave a feeling of security, and many noises can be heard inside the city while many trades were taking place.

There were guards in many areas with a rigid rotation they seem extremely dedicated to keeping the environment safe.

Demon slaying city.

Yang Wen rented a small house in the city,

He wanted to remain low-key while avoiding people and didn't contact his clansmen, he came here using many teleportation arrays mainly for gathering demon beast blood and materials while gaining experience in fighting them.

Maintaining a low presence is a must when your identity is special and trouble might crop up because of it.

And frankly, it was quite awkward for Yang wen, as the second son of the Yang clan's patriarch his cultivation was quite low even his maid Zhou Jing had a higher level cultivation base, Foundation realm!

Zhou family was a servant family for the Yang clan, the maid or guard chosen from the younger generation usually had some talent.

Yang wen didn't want to confine her talent so back then he told her not to wait for him, while he entered closed-door cultivation, she usually cultivates during that period making her progress fast, considering yang wen usually stayed closed-door for a long time.

She rose to the foundation realm quickly considering he gave her many resources and taught her how to reach the 12th Layers.

Yang wen never considered hiding the method of the 12th layer, even if people know about it they don't know how to cultivate Zenko even if they find out about it, how many people can achieve Zenko? As far as he remembered not one of the elders who passed the trial managed to cultivate it not even his father, even after his detailed explanation.

Currently, few people know about his Zenko and his plans with his 6 elements roots.

While many people who don't know much about him from the clan scorn and look down on him even though they don't dare to say it out loud but they still talked behind his back.

After all, having a maid with higher cultivation is very embarrassing although Yang wen didn't mind he wants to avoid trouble and focus only on himself.

"The city name is quite amusing, I think many demon beasts will get mad after hearing it," said chuckling yang wen.

"Brother Zhou wen I think the people from demon slaying city want to lure the demon beast into attacking them, with many experts staying here and protection from the formation, it will be easier to subdue them in one place as they are usually scattered around many places making it difficult for them to massacre them completely." analysed Zhou jing

Yang wen took Zhou Jing's family name and told her to let him act like his brother to hide his identity.

"You're probably right, come let's go and check out the city, I've been cooped up for so long, I need to have some fun in a while," said Yang wen.

After checking out a few areas around the city and asking out about important things to watch out for outside the city from the locals, they got back to their small rented house and rested for the night.

A few miles away from the demon-slaying city, near an abandoned village.

'Bham'

A demon beast flew out crashing into dozen of trees nearby while letting out a painful shriek.

'squeak squeak'.

"F**k, I should have taken a guide with me, there's so many of them" Yang wen cursed out loud, suddenly he heard the sound of swoosh from behind.

'Bang'

A huge demon beast the size of an elephant came crashing behind yang wen with a head butt sending him flying and destroying many trees along his flight.

As if to show its might it stomps the ground making a crack beneath.

The demon beast looked like a wild boar with huge legs while growling ferociously.

"Young master! Focus! Now is not the time to be distracted," shouted Zhou Jing with a panicked voice while she was surrounded by more than a hundred demon boars.

Yang wen got up and spit out a mouthful of blood, clenched his fist and stretched out "Ughh, This one looks like the leader and it has the strength of a foundation realm cultivator, I need to kill this beast, I'm sure the others will run away," yang wen thought quickly to get out of his current situation.

"Although Zhou Jing had higher cultivation than me, she is probably exhausted after killing so many beasts and there are still more than hundreds of them surrounding her," frowned yang wen.

'This beast is extremely cunning, he took the opportunity to show himself only when I was distracted and did a sneak attack on me.

while hiding the whole time he probably targeted me to one-shot me because I don't look tired and seemed weaker than zhou jing, I managed to react on time dodging his horn or else I would have died' analysed and thought rapidly.

Yang wen took a fighting stance" COME! I'll beat the s**t out of you," shouted while showing him a middle finger.

'GROWL'

The demon boar as if agitated by his word stomps the ground with its right leg and kept doing it in an incredibly fast motion and rushed straight at the little human before its eyes with great momentum it approached him.

Yang Wen predicted the beast's destination so he ducked sideways.

'Swish'

He felt like a breeze passed by, after dodging the beast's attack behind him, he saw that it crushed many trees.

Reacting quickly Yang wen went after it while taking out his black sword from his storage ring, rushing straight at the demon beast who was on the ground in a huge crater.

Moving nimbly yang wen jumped atop the beast with a lightning stab straight at its back.

'Clang'

Yang wen felt a vibration from his right hand which held the sword making his hands numb.

The beast let out a furious growl, running around everywhere while destroying the surroundings to get the little human off his back.

Yang wen reacted and jumped into one of the trees " His skin is too tough for a foundation realm beast, my attack won't go through, I need another plan,"

"This demon beast can only move fast in a straight line while it takes time for him to charge and had a hard skin compensating for his lack of reflex and speed"

"Meaning he is a superior version of tortoise"

After thinking about this Yang wen rushed near a lot of trees, jumping from next tree to another while dodging the demon beast, after circling his way to zhou jing where a lot of beasts surrounded her.

The demon beast leader came chasing after yang wen who quickly jumped atop the smaller demon beast and approached zhou jing.

While the demon beast leader couldn't stop his momentum and growled as if telling his underlying to move out of the way but it was too late and tacked many smaller beasts to their death.

It was furious and kept and growl to let his underlying spread out.

Yang wen managed to lure the demon beast leader near a lot of trees to hide its vision and when the beast saw his subbordinate it was already too late. which made him succeed in killing a few dozen of smaller beasts while making freeing zhou jing from the encirclement.

"Go, now that you are not surrounded take care of them one by one," yang wen said.

"Young master, are you sure you can handle that demon beast alone?" said zhou jing with a worried tone.

"I have a plan trust me and it's brother zhou wen not young master!" said Yang wen hurriedly as the giant beast approached him.

Yang wen kept changing direction nimbly while the beast couldn't change direction mid-way making it annoyed and furious.

After running quite a distance near a tall mountain.

Yang wen had no place to run and no trees were nearby the beast charged straight at him with killing intent.

Yang wen kicked the ground hard and jump sideways and managed to dodge by a hair breath.

'Bhoom'

The demon beast crashes into the sturdy mountain while making a deep hole and was dizzy.

"Gottcha," said yang wen.

"SUPER NOVA," said as he condense a huge ball of fire which quickly turn very small to the size of a palm and blasted off the hold.

'Bhooom' a huge explosion occurred.

Yang wen didn't stop and depleted a lot of Qi in condensing water from the surrounding air and flooded the hole.

Once done he kept firing bolts of lightning into the water and quickly blasted the cave surrounding and buried the beast along with it.

"Phew, That was tiring," yang wen let out a deep breath while he quickly sat down to recover, during this fight he had spent a lot of Qi nearly depleting it and he was worried about Zhou jing's situation.

After he rested for a few minutes.

Suddenly he felt a tremor, the stone around the entrance of the hole cracked and the demon beast rushed out with red eyes, burnt marks all over its skin while it growled looking around with a vicious look.

Yang wen sat there calmly without moving an inch and the beast was only 100 meters away from him

"You look nice and healthy with your current appearance, I think I'll make a barbecue out of you," said yang wen with a smile.

When the beast heard his voice it looked straight at where yang wen was sitting and was startled he didn't think the human would still be there and was immediately angered when it recalled what this puny human had done to the great him.

'Growl'

It instantly stomps the ground and charges at him with blood-red eyes.
