Chapter 945: Master and Student Meet Again! (3)

There were countless stories of players encountering seemingly harmless creatures, only to meet a grim fate. One player approached a palm-sized bird, which transformed into a massive Kunpeng and swallowed them whole.

Another player brushed against a seemingly innocent monk sweeping the road and was instantly killed.

The world outside the cities, which appeared tranquil, was fraught with hidden dangers.

Even random bandits could pose a significant threat to players.

Si Fuqing blinked, “But it looks so pretty here. I want to pick some flowers.”

“Pick flowers? Uncle will take you to a better place for that,” Bandit A’s eyes were filled with greed. “The flowers over there are much prettier. Just follow me.”

Si Fuqing looked at the nameless bandits and replied slowly, “No, you’re too ugly.”

“Stubborn girl!” Bandit C became furious. “You’re lucky we took an interest in you, and you dare to talk back! Do you think you have a choice? Big brother, let’s grab her and stop wasting time!”

“What’s all this noise about?” Before Si Fuqing could respond, a calm voice rang out. “You’re disturbing my peace.”

An old man dressed like a fisherman, carrying a basket of fish, walked toward them.

Few players had ever encountered the Master of Ghost Valley, and even fewer of the native NPCs of the Eternity Continent had seen him.

To the bandits, this old man posed no threat.

They glanced at him and then refocused on Si Fuqing, reaching out to grab her.

The old man raised an eyebrow, “Stop.”

The bandits ignored him.

In the next moment, the old man’s demeanor changed abruptly. His clothes transformed into a pure black robe, and a terrifying aura erupted from him.

At that moment, Si Fuqing could see her master’s information.

[Name: Master of Ghost Valley]

[Race: Demigod]

[Level: ???]

[Combat Style: ???]

[Weakness: ???]

[Skills: ???]

[Danger Level: Deadly]

[Note: If you see a smiling old man on the road, run. Run fast. That’s all the advice I can give you. Good luck, child.]

Si Fuqing: “…”

She strongly suspected that the system note was intentional.

Simultaneously, as the old man stopped disguising his identity, the four bandits felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation, as if a tidal wave was crushing them.

Bandit A’s eyes widened, and he started trembling uncontrollably, unable to form a complete sentence. “G-Ghost Valley V-Valley…”

“Valley what?” The Master of Ghost Valley smacked him. “Imitating a cuckoo bird?”

“Thud!”

Bandit A was sent flying tens of meters away, coughing up blood.

Terror exploded in the bandits’ hearts, rendering them immobile.

To the native NPCs of the Eternity Continent, the Master of Ghost Valley was a figure of immense dread.

“Master of Ghost Valley!” one bandit screamed. “We have no grudge against you! Please show mercy!”

They could only bully someone as weak as Si Fuqing, a seemingly fragile little girl.

Facing the Master of Ghost Valley, they didn’t even dare to breathe.

“Senior, this person wanted to enter Ghost Valley and disturb your peace. We were trying to stop her,” another bandit quickly pushed Si Fuqing forward to shield themselves. “Please understand our intentions!”

The Master of Ghost Valley smiled pleasantly, “My student wants to enter Ghost Valley, and you have a problem with that? I only have one precious student. If I stand up for her, do you have a problem with that?”
