After bidding farewell to the ecstatic townspeople of Qingfeng City, Xu Feng led his troop further south, passing through an ancient town nestled among towering mountains: Xiaoyue Town. Long infested by Demons, this once-peaceful and serene mountainous haven had long since turned eerie and terrifying. The townspeople had fled to the deep mountains to take refuge, living in extreme hardship.
When they reached the outskirts of Xiaoyue Town, they found a group of ragged, haggard villagers waiting on a path near the woods. At their head was an old man with temples frosted with white. With trembling hands and a pleading look in his eyes, the old man gazed at Xu Feng and said, "Noble heroes, please save our town. The people here have long been consumed by fear, waiting for this day when you would arrive."
Xu Feng stepped forward to clasp the old man's hand, saying in a deep voice, "Rest assured, we will do everything in our power to help you rebuild your homes." With that, he arranged for the troop to rest and regroup, preparing to enter Xiaoyue Town at first light to clear out the Demons.
