3016 An Impression

Im not sure when it started, but Shadow Mountain has been filled with clouds and mist all year round, and there have been rumours of strange things happening in the village at the foot of Shadow Mountain. I went there once and tried to persuade the villagers to move, but there were dozens of families who have been there for generations, and they refused to move.

Later, some cultivators pa.s.sed by and one of them wanted to see what went on there, but he never came back. His companions went in to look for him and they never came back either. Gradually, no one dared to enter.

Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu asked: Where are the villagers? Are they still alive?

Yes, and thats the strange thing. The village was built close to the mountain, there arent many households, only a dozen or so families. Strange things have happened, but there have never been any problems with the people there, which is strange.

Feng Jiu and Wanyan s.h.i.+san looked at each other, then asked: Before now, did the Mayor see a very beautiful red-clothed woman come to town? That woman is my Senior Sister, who was ordered to go to the village.

A very beautiful woman in red?

The Mayor thought for a while, then he said: Now that youve asked, there was an extremely beautiful woman in red who came here. At that time, we only noticed a few cultivators pa.s.sing by who had taken a fancy to her beauty. We only noticed because they tried to take advantage of her and caused a commotion. Otherwise, I wouldnt have remembered as there are usually many people pa.s.sing through the town.

What happened later? Wanyan s.h.i.+san asked.

Later, Im not sure what happened to those male cultivators who had targeted the woman in red either. They ran out of town one by one like they had gone mad, and said that something was chasing after them. Later on, I heard that the woman in red stayed in town for one night, then she left. She went in the direction of Shadow Mountain.

Upon hearing this, the two of them were deep in thought. She had really gone in the direction of Shadow Mountain. Since she went there, how could she have disappeared with her cultivation strength? What on earth had happened there?

That night, the two of them listened to the Mayor talk about the small village near Shadow Mountain. They didnt go back to their rooms to rest until the evening sky got dark.

After she entered her room, Feng Jiu took a deep breath and closed her eyes to practise. However, in the middle of the night, she suddenly heard the sound of someone walking on the roof. Her eyes opened at once, then she pushed the door open and went outside. She rose on her toes and jumped onto the roof and saw a black figure carrying an unconscious girl across the roof, heading into the night.

Who are you?

At the same time Feng Jiu shouted, Wanyan s.h.i.+san also appeared from the other side and blocked the path of the figure. When he saw the unconscious girl the man in black was carrying only had her inner robes on, he yelled immediately: Put her down! As he shouted, he shot towards the man in black.

When the Mayor heard the commotion, he ran out without even getting dressed and only put his coat on. When he saw the girl on the shoulders of the man in black, his face turned pale with fright and he almost fainted.

Little Little Ru! Thats my daughter, my daughter!

He shouted in panic and wanted to help, but he saw the agility of the man in black who was carrying his daughter, and also saw Feng Jiu and Wanyan s.h.i.+san stopping him for fear that it would be a waste of his effort, so he stood guard below.

Wanyan s.h.i.+sans attack was coupled with Feng Jius attack. The two of them cooperated with each other, and soon, the man in black had no choice but to leave the girl behind.
