Chapter 485: Night Fell

Chapter 485: Night Fell (3)

Were those men mercenaries from the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group?

Du Lang had mentioned that they encountered a surprise raid in the small village. Even though most of them managed to escape, a few were too severely injured to do so. Du Lang was convinced that they had passed away.

However, the four people in the chamber were still alive, even though they looked weak. It did not look like they were in any mortal danger. Their injuries had probably exhausted them to the point of unconsciousness.

Did Uncle Nine save all of them?

If he did, then he must have known about the attack on the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group.

Shen Yanxiao was sure that he knew why the village was so strange.

However, why did Ah Ke and Old Ba act as if they had no recollection about the attack?

More questions began to pile up. The only thing that Shen Yanxiao was certain was that Uncle Nine kept some secrets, but it did not look like he was a bad person. He would not have saved those four people otherwise, and it did not look like he wanted anyone to know about their presence in his basement.

Could someone from the village want to harm them?

Shen Yanxiao frowned. It was difficult for her to picture the villagers here as vile characters. On the other hand, she did not find any other suspicious people there as well.

Without any answer to those questions, Shen Yanxiao had even more doubts about Uncle Nine.

That itself made the mysterious village even more unfathomable.

Shen Yanxiao pondered more about the situation at hand. At the moment, she had no further plans for the four people that she had found. She still had to go to the Graveyard of the Sun. If she were to wake them up now, then she would not be able to proceed with her initial plan. Other accidents might happen too.

Uncle Nine hid them well, and he protected them. At least they were safe there.

Shen Yanxiao would never leave them behind. Therefore, she had decided that she would find a way to take them with her after she obtained the Skeleton Flower from the Graveyard of the Sun.

As she made up her mind, Shen Yanxiao took four bottles of healing potions from her interspatial ring and fed them with it so that they could recover faster.

When she had the chance, Shen Yanxiao checked out the rest of the basement, but she found nothing else apart from the gallipots.

Then, she decided to leave the basement. She met up with the Vermilion Bird in the kitchen, and they placed the slate slab back into its original position.

“Let’s go.” Shen Yanxiao glanced at the Vermilion Bird. In any case, she must go to the Graveyard of the Sun and find the Skeleton Flower there.

It was the dead of the night, and the comfort that came with the day had faded into the background. Darkness enveloped the ground, and freaky animal howls and wails echoed under the night sky. It shattered the silence of the night.

When Shen Yanxiao and the Vermillion Bird left Uncle Nine’s house, the only sound that lingered in their ears was apprehensive bellows.

It sounded as if those noises came from the village entrance. Deep-hearted roars were mingled with screams of terror.

It was hard to imagine that such awful sounds would come to such a quiet and peaceful village.

Stories of Cave Wolves Mercenary Group’s attack surfaced in Shen Yanxiao’s mind. She squinted her eyes in an attempt to see in the dark. She had doubts about the situation, but she still needed to go to the Graveyard of the Sun. That was their ultimate goal.

Without any hint of hesitation, Shen Yanxiao and the Vermillion Bird hid in the darkness as they dashed toward the other end of the village.
