Chapter 206 - An Unexpected Discovery (1/2)

Chapter 206 An Unexpected DiscoveryThinking of the future, Zhang Yunyan couldn’t help but sigh silently. How could she have a future? The Devil’s Cave would be her burial ground, and her considerations would be a waste of time.

Yunyan thought of the unbearable torture just now, and she was still horrified. She looked at Shikong beside her, feeling anxious. She hoped that the jade could stay quiet and not use magic to torture her and her benefactor.

Outside the Cave of Fate, Turtle Elf heard the dialogue between Shikong and Zhang Yunyan. Although it was not clear, it knew that its friends were still alive.

It was very surprised and excited. It asked eagerly, “Yun Feiyan, congratulations on your escape. Are you safe now?”

After experiencing this fatal torture, Zhang Yunyan no longer cared about the jade in her hand, and there was no way to understand its nature, so she could only go with it. Seeing her friend so concerned, she was moved and her eyes were wet.

Yunyan sighed and said, “Turtle Elf, I am still okay now. Oh, I have already got into a big trouble, and there will be a big disaster at any time.”

She really wanted to meet with Turtle Elf at the entrance, but looking at the jade in her hand, she could not help but shake her head and sigh. With the evil stone in her hand, she didn’t dare to get close to Turtle Elf.

Turtle Elf listened to Yunyan’s words and was shocked. It didn’t know what troubles its friend had confronted, and what kind of dangers and disasters would be caused. Its heart that had just been eased was hung up again.

It had no ability to help its friend, but could only comfort her, “Yun Feiyan, since it has already happened, you must be brave to face the big troubles and take things as they come. You must be careful, try to avoid touching terrible things and be aware of the sudden danger. Be careful!”

“I will, oh, this is very difficult. It’s not up to me. Just let the fate to decide…” Zhang Yunyan reluctantly answered.

She didn’t believe that a person could be controlled by fate but had to face the terrible reality. She didn’t know what to do to avoid infuriating the monster. She had no way to be careful. She could only submit to fate.

Zhang Yunyan was secretly cursing Jiuyou Sage and the devils, and the ones who framed her–the sika deer who tricked her and Black Tiger, and the old witch who claimed to be a half an immortal…

It was dark and quiet in the mysterious Cave of Fate.

After the storm, the two poor souls were physically and mentally exhausted and finally had a rare peace. They cared about each other and thanked each other, but they couldn’t see each other’s faces.

Zhang Yunyan and Shikong didn’t talk. They sat on the ground thinking about things. They were back to the cruel reality. Here is the Devil’s Cave, and the Cave of Fate would be their burial ground. The reality made them painful and deeply desperate.

Not knowing how long it took, they broke free from the pain. Since entering the Devil’s Cave meant they were destined to die, and breaking into the Cave of Fate was equal to death, what else could be more fearful? The situation was already like this, and they could only let it be.

Zhang Yunyan and Shikong felt physically and mentally relieved, and they were gradually indifferent about the danger and disaster.

In a desperate situation, they could only comfort themselves. Since they would die sooner or later, why would they worry about life and death anymore? Except increasing the pain, it had no help and was useless. Just believe in the fate again. Their fate had already been decided. Those were doomed to die would not live, and vice versa. It would be useless to bother about it.

Time was quietly passing, and it was dark in the Cave of Fate. They didn’t know when it was, or whether it was already dawning.

There were no changes of the four seasons and day and night here, no landscapes, no farmland, no sound of chickens and ducks, birds and insects, and no sign of life. It was quiet like death, as if they were in the underworld.

Zhang Yunyan and Shikong were caught in painful contemplation, thinking about the things that had been on their mind for a long time…

Yunyan remembered the unfinished family vengeance, so she was sad and angry. Thinking of her brother Yuntian and sister Yunxia who had no news, she was miserable. She thought of her murdered adoptive father and the three dead brothers and sisters of the Lin family, which made her extremely painful.

She was anxious to avenge her families and had decided to embark on the journey tomorrow. Unexpectedly, she accidentally fell into the Devil’s Cave and was going to be buried here. She lost hope about everything.

Zhang Yunyan was sad. She sighed silently and kept shedding tears…

Shikong was thinking about his families. He was sad and angry for his own hatred, and was also anxious for the unfinished revenge.

He thought of his father who was murdered and cried silently. Thinking of his dead mother and brothers and sisters, he felt painful and distressed. He thought of his fiancée who had passed away, then a burst of pain came to his heart and he couldn’t stop crying.

In the thoughts, Zhang Yunyan wiped the tears, glanced at Shikong next to her and sighed silently. She had that inexplicable feeling again, but she didn’t know why.

Yunyan had a feeling that Shikong was different from other men, otherwise she would not have this special feeling. She couldn’t tell clearly about what was going on but only to suspect.

For a long time, she never knew why this feeling came up, and why it was so weird.

Zhang Yunyan looked at the vague figure next to her and asked, “Shikong, forgive me of asking this. You converted to Buddhism. Do you have no concerns about your relatives? Didn’t you miss the common life?”
