Chapter 265 Nian Beast
After eating dumplings, Leng Ningshuang returned home after Zhou Chen's persuasion. In fact, Zhou Chen understood that the reason he stayed was because he was afraid that he would be sad when thinking of Leng Yiyao when he was alone at home.

The fact was just as he thought, he just missed her, he was not very sad. As the sky gradually darkened, various fireworks began to be set off in the sky above Wu'an County.

With nothing to do, Zhou Chen flashed and stepped directly into the sky. He took out a wine jug, sat cross-legged in the air, looked at the beautiful scenery below and drank wine.

I don’t know when a black man wearing a mask appeared behind me, “I remember you didn’t seem to drink, when did you learn that?”
Hearing the sound, Zhou Chen turned around and looked over, wondering how come I didn't notice anything at all.

"Your Excellency knows me?"
The black man nodded in acknowledgment.

"Since you know me, why don't you show your true face to me, but dress like this?"
"Don't worry about it. I have my own reasons. It's not convenient now, but I'll let you see my true colors when the time is right."

Zhou Chen stood up and frowned at the man in black, then said with a smile, "Forget it, it's New Year's Day today, so don't worry about it. Just don't cause me any trouble." Then he handed over the wine jug in his hand and asked, "Do you want to drink with me?"

Seeing the man in black reaching out his hand, Zhou Chen threw the wine jug directly over. After the man in black took the wine jug, Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. At this time, he saw the mask of the man in black burst with a bang, and a small gap appeared at the mouth.

Then he took advantage of this gap and took a big gulp of wine. Seeing this, Zhou Chen shook his head helplessly, "Why do you seem so disappointed?"
"No, you're not mistaken."

Zhou Chen had checked it through spiritual exploration before, and the result showed that spiritual exploration could not see through his mask at all.

After trying several times, Zhou Chen completely gave up his curiosity and began to appreciate the beautiful scenery below with the man in black.

Although he didn't know what the black-clad man's purpose was, nothing unexpected happened in two hours. It seemed that this guy just came to him to drink.

However, what Zhou Chen didn't know was that after he returned, the man in black also followed him quietly. Only after seeing him lying on the bed to rest did the man in black reach out and take off the mask on his head. If Zhou Chen saw his appearance at this moment, he would definitely be very happy. This person was his wife Leng Yiyao.

When the man in black came to the void again, he spoke to himself, "Okay, now that you've met him, you can give up, right?"
"Let's go. I'll do whatever you say as long as you don't hurt him in the future."

"That's right." After the man in black left, before dawn the next day, a strange-looking monster appeared in the city.

The monster's purpose was very clear, it walked straight towards Zhou Chen's yard. Although there were basically no people on the street at this time, there were still a few soldiers patrolling the street.

When they saw the monster, they barely had time to scream before the monster rushed forward and sucked away their yang energy, and they fell to the ground in an instant.

This monster was about the height of two people. If it wasn't too early, it would have caused a commotion a long time ago.

Soon the monster arrived outside Zhou Chen's room. Zhou Chen drank a lot of wine yesterday and was sleeping so soundly that he didn't notice the danger.

The monster smelled the alcohol in the room and understood everything. It was about to break through the door when suddenly a graceful figure flew out from Zhou Chen's storage ring, and instantly a sword energy rushed towards the monster.

Seeing this, the monster immediately retreated to avoid the sword attack. At this time Zhou Chen also heard the sound and immediately woke up from his dream. Seeing Zhou Chen wake up, Yue said, "Master, be careful, it's the Nian monster."

Zhou Chen frowned and rushed out, looked at the Nian Beast and asked, "You are the Nian Beast, why do you look so ugly?"
Hearing Zhou Chen's words, the Nian Beast became angry and said, "Damn it, who are you saying is ugly? I'm going to eat you." As he said that, he opened his big mouth and sucked, and instantly a suction force came.

It sucked everything in the yard into his mouth. In just a dozen seconds, all the small objects in Zhou Chen's yard had entered his stomach, but Zhou Chen stood there motionless. Seeing that Zhou Chen had no reaction after sucking for a long time, the Nian Beast no longer wasted any effort.

"Hey human, I didn't realize you were quite capable."

Hearing this, Zhou Chen sneered, "Why is that not enough? If that's the case, it's my turn to do it." Then Zhou Chen waved his hand and a few sword lights flew out, heading straight for the Nian Beast.

Upon seeing this, the Nian Beast's body suddenly grew in size, directly growing to five meters in height. It opened its mouth and swallowed all of Zhou Chen's flying swords into its stomach.

"Oh, you have a good appetite," and then he waved his hand and summoned hundreds of flying swords again, stabbing towards the Nian beast.

This guy ate without any fear. What Zhou Chen didn't expect was that this guy actually swallowed hundreds of flying swords into his stomach. At this time, the fighting sound here also attracted the Demon-Suppressing Guards who were patrolling nearby.

The demon-suppressing guards were also shocked when they saw this huge body. Before they could escape, a suction force came and the bodies of several people flew directly into the mouth of the Nian beast.

"Lord Zhou, save us."

Zhou Chen shook his head and swung out a sword energy, which directly cut a void crack in the air, and the two of them just flew into the crack.

Zhou Chen no longer had the heart to play at this time, "Huh, you like to eat, don't you? I'll let you taste the feeling of being eaten."

Zhou Chen jumped high, and then a huge magic circle appeared behind him, followed by a hundred-meter-long dragon appearing behind him, roaring at the Nian beast.

Feeling the cold air blowing towards it, the Nian Beast was scared. What Zhou Chen didn't expect was that this guy actually imitated the humans and knelt down in front of him, "Senior, please spare my life and don't kill me. I have no choice but to do so."

Zhou Chen slowly landed, and the ice dragon hovered above his head. "Oh, I'd like to hear what you are hiding."

Feeling the endless chill emanating from the ice dragon, the Nian Beast said tremblingly, "It was the Demon King Zhentian. He asked me to deal with you."

Hearing this, Zhou Chen said angrily, "You are lying. You want to deal with me with your strength? Are you stupid or is the Demon King Zhentian stupid?"

"Don't be anxious, he gave me a magic weapon. He said that with this magic weapon he can deal with you. The magic weapon is in my mouth. Look if you don't believe me," he said and opened his mouth.

Zhou Chen frowned and looked towards his wide-open mouth. At this moment, something strange happened. The mouth of the Nian beast suddenly became larger and swallowed Zhou Chen directly.

Yue was also startled, and endless sword intent emanated from the air in an instant. However, his sword energy was just tickling the Nian Beast and was completely useless.

After succeeding, the Nian Beast no longer paid any attention to Yue and turned into a ball of evil spirit and left. Seeing this, Yue chased after it and said, "Don't run, you beast. Give my master back to me."

The Nian Beast was very fast and Yue could not catch up with it at all. In just ten minutes, the Nian Beast had flown away from Wu'an County and arrived at the mountains and forests three hundred miles away.

At this time, Demon King Zhentian and Elder Eagle were both in a cave, closing their eyes and regulating their breathing. Suddenly, Demon King Zhentian opened his eyes and said, "I'm back."

Elder Eagle also opened his eyes and disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was already outside the cave, while Demon King Zhentian walked out of the cave slowly.

When the Nian Beast saw the two men coming out, he immediately greeted them flatteringly and said, "My two lords, the work has been done. I think it's time for you to fulfill your promise to me before."
