Chapter 169 The Devils Come (1/2)
Zhang Yunyan looked around and still found no suspicious things, nor did she see the appearance of Jiuyou Sage.
She couldn’t confirm whether it was the Devil’s Cave and did not know where the crack was. However, she felt that it would not be too far away and might be nearby.
Since nightfall, the behavior of Black Tiger, the mysterious sika deer, the old woman who called herself half an immortal, and the astonishing noise seemed to prove that the danger was imminent, and that Jiuyou Sage and the Four King Ghosts were likely to appear.
It was terrible. Halfway up the mountain, Yunyan was nervous and worried that the Devil’s Cave might suddenly open, and the fierce and vicious devils would rush to the front of her.
She was in a dangerous place with unpredictable consequences. The thought of it was frightening enough.
Zhang Yunyan thought of the mysterious sika deer again. She was even more suspicious, wondering whether it came with an ulterior purpose.
She and Black Tiger followed the sika deer to the middle of the mountain. Then, the sudden disappearance of the sika deer was so strange.
With shiny fur and special plum blossom spots, the sika deer understood human language, and disappeared silently. No other deer could be like it. The sika deer was by no means ordinary. Moreover, from its appearance and behavior, it must be a highly skilled elf.
But it was strange that it was chased by an ordinary evil wolf helplessly and might die.
What puzzled her was that it had the ability to kill the evil wolf, but it didn’t stop the wolf. Was it trying to disguise something with this illusion? And why did the sika deer take her halfway up the hill? Was it intentional? If it was, what was its purpose?
Besides, the old woman who claimed to be half an immortal said she was entrusted by someone. Who was the person, and what was the task?
The old woman’s words and deeds were even more strange, suspicious and frightening.
Was she entrusted by the devils of the Jiuyou Sage to send her to a dangerous place?
Because Zhang Yunyan could not know the truth, she was afraid and could only predict that if she was really hurt by demons and monsters, she would not be able to escape tonight.
Although she knew nothing, she had an ominous feeling that those mysterious things were not ordinary, which might indicate a terrible danger. The more she thought, the more she feared. She knew that danger was coming, and the consequences were unimaginable.
Yunyan felt nervous and looked around, hoping to find something to help her escape the disaster.
Qinglong Mountain was quiet with no suspicious changes. There was no sound, no shadows, and no smoke on the mountainside.
Zhang Yunyan sighed. Although she was less nervous, she was still afraid.
She wanted to get home as soon as possible, but Black Tiger was here too. She could not go alone. In times of danger, she could not abandon her animal friend and escape alone.
Yunyan repeatedly urged the black dog to go home, but it ignored and was still looking at the distance and whined from time to time.
Frowning, she was very anxious, and decided that they could not stay here any longer.
No longer hesitating, Zhang Yunyan immediately took Black Tiger to leave. It was a little difficult to hold the black dog, but she would never let go, no matter how hard it struggled. The only way to do so was to take it away by force, or she would not know when she would be able to leave the place, and what danger she would encounter.
Suddenly, a burst of scream came when a ball of black air quickly flew here. Covering the night sky, the black air emitted a strong smell, frightening and disgusting.
Zhang Yunyan had just taken a few steps when she was shocked by the sudden change and stopped in a hurry. She was nervous and more frightened. That was the Jiuyou Sage. It was out of her expectation that the old devil really came.
Looking at the black air coming, Black Tiger was barking in a low voice, eager to try.
Yunyan could not escape, and did not have the opportunity to go down the mountain. If she continued to escape, she would be discovered by the old devil, and the consequences would be even worse. She had no way to escape, so she had to hide behind a large stone with Black Tiger, hoping that she could survive.
The smelly black air soon fell halfway up the hill. When the evil black air dispersed, several horrifying figures appeared. Besides the Jiuyou Sage, there were four ugly and ferocious guys.
Among these guys, one was flashing red, one was wrapped in yellow light, one in green. They were the Four King Ghosts under the control of Jiuyou Sage.
It was another night of terror. A group of terrifying devils suddenly appeared in front of them, not far away. How terrible it was.
In the blink of an eye, Qinglong Mountain became the “hell” where the devil ran rampant. The terrible situation and the terror of the atmosphere were vivid like the abyss of death.
Zhang Yunyan saw the devil again, and more than one, which made her shrink and tremble involuntarily. The disaster came suddenly. She was nervous and scared to think that it was impossible to escape from the devils.
Black Tiger, trembling and nervous, was staring at the devils, as if it was ready for battle.
Zhang Yunyan did not want to face this group of devils. Her trembling body was close to Black Tiger and she clung to her only partner. She was afraid that it would make a noise to alarm these evil gods, and she was afraid that it would rush to death. If they were found out by the devils, Black Tiger and she would all die.
Halfway up the hill, it was dark and quiet. The ghostly terror was like hell, terrifying all living beings. This was a place of death, bloody and murderous, fearful and suffocating.
The devils of the Jiuyou Sage were not far away, and they would come at any time to take the lives of Zhang Yunyan and Black Tiger.
