Chapter 1861 - She was the only one who saw it (2/2)

Everyone stared at her, they couldn’t see any difference!

Mo Zhi also stared at her, but he retracted his gaze quickly and turned to look at the place she had pointed at: “Then where is the shadow now?”

“It ran into the river.” Sima You Yue said.

“Something from the river?”

“Probably.” Sima You Yue said, “I’m not sure what it is, I just saw it drifting over there some distance away above the surface of the water.”

“Did you see what it was?” Mo Zhi asked.

Sima You Yue shook her head: “It was just a fuzzy shadow.”

“It seems that all the missing people were captured by that shadow.” Mo Zhan said.

“They weren’t captured, they were eaten.” Sima You Yue said, “The shadow I saw looked like it wanted to swallow him whole.”

“Eaten?”

“Yes, I think the shadow I saw was eating people.” Sima You Yue said, “Those people who have disappeared would no doubt have been eaten.”

The people of the Mo Clan were unable to digest this news. Most clansmen didn’t carry their Life Jade on them, so when these people had disappeared, they wouldn’t have known that they had died. If those people had only disappeared, at least there was a chance that they would return. Now that she had said this, she had smashed their hopes.

“I don’t know if that thing will come back later after being knocked by you!” The Mo Clan people felt a little frustrated at the thought of an invisible thing spying on them.

The atmosphere fell silent suddenly.

“Since that thing has been chased away, it shouldn’t come back anytime soon. We will find out what it is. During this time, everyone should remain careful and try not to act alone.” Mo Zhi comforted everyone, then he said to Sima You Yue: “You Yue, come here.”

Sima You Yue and Huan followed him and left the campsite.

“You Yue, how were you able to see that shadow?” Mo Zhi asked, “Don’t tell me that your eyes are special, you don’t even believe that.”

“He he, didn’t your Ancestor tell you?” Sima You Yue smiled, “I think I can see it because…of my Soul Body.”

“You are a Soul Body?” Mo Zhi was shocked by the news and said in disbelief: “You are really a Soul Body? Then in the Human Realm…”

“I was originally dead.” Sima You Yue said, “But it seems that someone in the Human Realm saved my body and held on to my life, that’s why I didn’t lose my memory.”

“This… you…” Mo Zhi looked at her, “Are you really a Soul Body?

Sima You Yue nodded.

“Then how did you…” He recalled when he had first met her that her strength was very low, how was she able to conceal her entity?

“Condensing? This was condensed for me by someone else.” Sima You Yue said indifferently.

“Since you saw it with your Soul Body, then could that thing also be an underworld beast with a Soul Body? From the River of Oblivion?” Mo Zhi guessed.

“I don’t know.” Sima You Yue said, “I don’t have much knowledge about underworld beasts in the river.”

“This was a Vapour Beast living at the juncture where the River of Oblivion and the Nirvana River met. Living alone, it can become invisible, and it can also transform into any form. Its strength is not considered very powerful. After it is injured, it bears strong grudges. It takes three to five days for it to recover, so it won’t cause any trouble for the time being.” Huan said quietly.

“Oh? Huan, how do you know so much about this kind of underworld beast?” Sima You Yue asked.

“I just know a little.” Huan replied. He wouldn’t tell them that it was the news he received when he contacted Black Shadow earlier.

Black Shadow had lived here for many years, so he knew everything about the situation here. If there was anything they wanted to know, he could just ask him.

“So that means the next three to five days will be safe.” Sima You Yue said, “Let’s take this opportunity to find a way to resolve this matter!”
