Chapter 387: Mutated Village

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Rong Ziyi stood at the end of the convoy and looked in the direction of the village.

The lights of the ten thousand houses had been extinguished. It was peaceful and peaceful. It was an extreme contrast to the mysterious incident that they had encountered previously.

However…

“Why do I feel that it’s a little strange?” Rong Ziyi frowned and smiled not long after. “The people of the Black Cloud Stronghold have all been chased away. Even if there are people in the village who have tipped them off, what kind of waves can they cause?”

Rong Ziyi shook his head and walked toward the guards.

!!

Many of the guards were injured. In addition to the weird events such as ‘coming back from the dead’, a few of them who were mentally weak had almost collapsed before their eyes not long ago.

Such emotions would be spread to the people around them.

What Rong Ziyi had to do was to calm the guards down so that they could calm down. Otherwise, they would not only be of no help to the rest of the journey, but they would also become a burden to the entire convoy.

Lin Bai and Luo Ningyu walked side by side in the convoy.

In the convoy, other than the guards, the rest were relatively calm. However, they were troubled by the fact that they did not know what had happened earlier.

Under Luo Ningyu’s instructions, the leader of the convoy succinctly told everyone in the convoy what had just happened:

“Heh, just now, the people of the Black Cloud Stronghold came to attack us in the night recklessly. We have already heavily injured them. Even the fourth brother of the Black Cloud Stronghold is already withered. Everyone does not need to worry. This journey…”

The leader’s sonorous and powerful voice dispelled the anxiety in the convoy. The people who were originally gathered in twos and threes also dispersed to get ready to rest.

“Take care of the guards. Don’t let anyone else in the convoy know about the news.”

Luo Ningyu’s face was expressionless as she calmly said to the leader.

The leader kept nodding his head. Although his expression was calm, there was already some anxiety and fear in the depths of his eyes.

Who did they kill? The fourth brother of the Black Cloud Stronghold!

This group of bandits did all kinds of evil, but when it came to taking revenge for their brothers, regardless of whether it was genuine or fake, they were usually very persistent.

The convoy would enter the territory of the Black Cloud Stronghold the next day. At that time, one could imagine what kind of attitude the Black Cloud Stronghold would have when they came to see them.

The leader repeatedly expressed his opinion of taking a detour, but was completely rejected by Luo Ningyu.

Before this trip, Luo Ningyu had given him a large sum of silver. It was enough for him to finish this job and become an independent family. As long as he managed it properly, he would have the opportunity to be rich and prosperous for the rest of his life…

On one side was fear, and on the other side was desire. After a long period of distress, the leader’s choice was obvious.

“The people in the convoy have been appeased, and the guards have also sealed their mouths. Although doing this will not be able to cover up the fire, my goal has already been achieved.”

Luo Ningyu sat upright, looking at the bonfire in front of her, deep in thought.

“Other than the demonic puppet, is there anything else?”

Lin Bai looked at Luo Ningyu beside him and asked.

The light from the bonfire shone on her exquisite face, causing Lin Bai to be unable to help but take a few more glances.

Luo Ningyu nodded slightly, looked around, and said softly,

“Also, for example, the soul of a demon servant. This kind of person has the mark left behind by a high-level demon, and if the demon wants to leave behind a mark, this person must wholeheartedly submit to the demon.

“After that, the demonic servant will become the servant of the demon and will not have any second thoughts towards the demon. The demon even knows what the demonic servant is thinking.

“If the demonic servant dies, his soul will still be the servant of the demon.”

Hiss…

Lin Bai could not help but gasp.

He would not be able to get rid of his identity as a servant even after death… What kind of person would be willing to become the servant of the demon?

“If you join us, you’ll see even more incredible things.”

A rare smile appeared on Luo Ningyu’s face.

Luo Ningyu’s smile was like a melting glacier, causing Lin Bai’s mind to waver.

“It seems like they really want me to join the organization. Then, what’s their motive? Are they cherishing my talents? Are they trying to increase their influence?”

Lin Bai pondered in his heart, but after thinking for a long time, he still had no idea:

“And for what reason did Miss Luo become one of them?”

The corners of Luo Ningyu’s lips curled up slightly, but she still did not answer.

Lin Bai Sighed silently. Luo Ningyu had always been very careful when it came to that organization. Many times, Lin Bai had tried to get some information out of her, but it had all been in vain.

Luo Ningyu was an ice-cold beauty. She had the scheming and shrewdness that matched her, so Lin Bai did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.

“No, no, it’s not good!”

Just as Lin Bai and Luo Ningyu were about to return to the carriage, a terrified shout came from afar. Rong Ziyi’s face was pale, and he ran over with weak steps. He even fell on the way.

“Calm down,” Luo Ningyu said calmly, as if nothing in this world could make her panic. “Tell me in detail.”

“All the villagers in the village came out in the middle of the night. They stood here in a daze, just like zombies.”

Rong Ziyi wiped the sweat off his forehead. His face had lost all color.

“Take us there.”

Lin Bai and Luo Ningyu looked at each other and stood up to follow Rong Ziyi.

When the three of them came to the alley of the village, they saw the villagers standing at the gate of their own courtyard. They were dazed and stood there in a daze.

Lin Bai tried to communicate with the villagers, but no one responded.

“This, this, this…”

Rong Ziyi’s teeth were chattering as he spoke.

“It’s not just here. All the villagers are like this.” Luo Ningyu looked around the village and returned, her voice carrying a rare anger.

Just as the three of them were at their wit’s end.

The villagers turned their heads at the same time and looked at Lin Bai and the other two. Their eyes were empty and expressionless. Coupled with the silvery moonlight, it was indescribably horrifying.

Rong Ziyi’s knees gave way and he fell to the ground.

“Hehe…”

The villagers laughed coldly in unison.

“There’s actually someone who isn’t afraid? Boring.”

The villagers spoke in unison again.

At this moment, a strong night wind blew over.

Every villager’s flesh and body scattered like yellow sand and left with the wind.

If there weren’t any clothes on the ground, Lin Bai and the others would even have doubts, wondering if what they saw just now was an illusion or if this village had long been deserted.

“I reckon that not a single person in the entire village survived. They have long been planted with the seeds of the demon.” Luo Ningyu sighed softly. “It can also be said that they have long died.”

Lin Bai clenched his fists. His brows were twisted and there was a faint anger in his eyes.

“This, what should we do now?”

Rong Ziyi stood up weakly. After Little Red sent a wisp of aura into his meridians, Rong Ziyi’s mind gradually calmed down.

“Should we take a detour?”

Rong Ziyi asked tentatively. This time, he was really afraid.

“No.” Lin Bai shook his head. “Let’s go and meet them.”

“But, but…” Rong Ziyi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Luo Ningyu.
