Chapter 2082 - Looking back (2/2)

“Hey, what’s happening over there?” The two who kept watch there asked.

“Nothing, I accidentally banged into the trees.” That person responded.

The other two laughed, how could he be so clumsy to bang into the trees at his age.

After a while, he came back.

Both of them wanted to tease him, but before they even talked, they saw the patrols walking over. The three of them immediately stood in position.

A few patrols came over and asked them, “Did anything strange happen here?”

“In response to Envoy, nothing is out of the normal for now.” The one who was teased replied.

“Mm.” Envoy nodded, “They are here to change shifts with you, follow me.”

Three of them smiled happily, it had finally come to an end!

They changed shifts, and three of them followed the Envoy at the back to change others’ shifts at another spot as they prepared to go back.

Someone came before they got out of the area.

“Envoy You, what brings you here?”

“Commander has invited Great Master Liu to take a look at the ore vein.” Envoy You responded, “Let’s go together since you are free.”

They were stunned. He wanted them to follow them there? Would they still be able to come out alive then? However, Envoy You had higher rights than any average Envoys, so they couldn’t reject even if they wanted to. They had no choice but to follow him obediently.

“Hahaha, there’s no need to worry, all the strange things that happened at the ore vein were actually caused by the power inside, it was just causing mischief. Once I expose this power, you won’t have to be afraid anymore.” Great Master Liu said confidently.

They thought to themselves that the people that Commander Hua found were extraordinary people. There was nothing to be afraid of with him here!

With that thought, everyone became braver.

Envoy You brought them into the mountain. Sima You Yue, who impersonated as a soldier could sense the chill shrouding all over her body, like what Old Man Li said.

“Great Master Liu, can you feel it?” Envoy You asked.

“Mm, I feel it. This is the chill that the force has released, it’s normal.” Great Master Liu said.

“Great Master Liu, are you confident?”

“Judging by the chill, the force is indeed very strong. We’ll have to get closer to see if this can be solved.” At this point, Great Master Liu had to change the plan that he had come up with in advance before entering the place.

Initially, Sima You Yue thought that Great Master Liu just had a smattering of knowledge and was overconfident, but it seemed like he actually had some skills. It seemed true that not just anyone could catch Commander’s eyes.

Envoy You didn’t reproach him after hearing what he said. He had been here twice and, both times, he had barely escaped. Hence, he knew how strange and powerful it was here.

“Let’s take a look around.” He told Great Master Liu.

“Sure.”

The atmosphere in the group became heavier after seeing how unconfident Great Master Liu was. Everyone became careful as they were afraid something would suddenly happen.

Sima You Yue slowly joined the group at the back. She looked around to appraise the situation and even asked Mi Er to leave secretly.

Envoy You could sense something so he turned around to take a look at the back of the group. He didn’t seem to find anything strange apart from everyone’s nervous looks, so he slightly frowned without saying anything.

“Ah——”

The one walking in the middle suddenly shouted as he fell to the ground. In a short moment, he died and dissipated into black smoke.

The men around him cried out as they ran away. All of them looked around their surroundings anxiously. How did he die when there was nothing at all?

Envoy You came back and asked them, “What happened?”

“He suddenly died, but we didn’t catch a glimpse of anything at all!” Someone replied.

“Did he die suddenly?”

“Yes, he was walking in the middle, but we didn’t see anyone at all.”
