170 CLOUD MIST RIDGE (1/2)
The group flew forth three days and three nights without rest before they arrived at their destination. The Cloud Mist Ridge!
The place has an icy terrain and this causes the mist to accumulate. Just like its name, the Cloud Mist Ridge has a thick mist shrouding the entire place.
The thick mist that covers the whole area was akin to clouds that had descended into the ridge.
Going out of the carriage, the group takes the place into full view.
The thick snow covers the roof of houses and smokes were puffing out of its chimneys. Also, there were towering pine trees that stretched into the horizon, far beyond the reach of their eyes.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
From the current looks of it, despite its icy terrain, it still had its own native residents.
The sun was already about to take a dipped on the western horizon when the group arrived. That is why they decided to hurry their way to one of the brick houses erected in the snowy land.
The good thing is that the villagers seem to be amiable and kind in nature. When Long Fui knock on the door, a granny, opened up the door and invited them in without any hesitation.
The old lady introduced herself and called out her granddaughter who was playing inside her room at that moment.
According to their introduction, the granny was called Grandma Lu and the girl is called Mayan. Grandma Lu was raising her grandchild alone ever since Mayan's parents died.
Mayan is a bubbly and cute little girl. While Granma Lu is a very attentive host, though a little bit talkative.
From their conversation, the group learned that people in this place were accustomed to seeing itinerant warlocks that is why they were too accommodating.
The eyes of the cute little girl lit up when it saw the black cat trailing behind the group.
”Have a seat young lads, wait here and I will prepare something to drink.”
As she said that, the granny went inside her kitchen leaving the group in the living room together with her grandchild.
The cute little girl never tore her gaze away from Janus. When Mu Lingxi noticed it, she picked up her cat and smiled at the little girl.
”Do you want to pet him??”
Mu Lingxi asked in a soft one...
”Hmm...”
The cute girl nodded her head fervently, her eyes beaming with anticipation.
”There you go... just don't pull on his fur okay? He won't like that.”
Mu Lingxi beckoned the cute little girl to come near her and carried her into her lap.
She finds it really heartwarming when she saw the girl playing with Janus. It reminded her of herself when she first saw Janus as a kitten back then.
She had that same spark in her eyes when she held Janus for the first time.
