Chapter 932

(Unedited)

..

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao found himself following a strange woman who looks like a young witch, with strange clothing. She walks a bit fast within the miasma-covered mist and would sometimes look behind casually as if trying to determine if the person following behind her is already lost.

But Shin Jiao could see her reaction upon seeing her frowning whenever he would suddenly appear behind her.

How could she lose him with his absolute sense and spiritual sense scanning the whole area within 100 meters from him, he could clearly see where she is heading.

After a couple of hours of walking through the thick miasma-filled forest, they soon arrive at a particular location.

In front of them is a cavern between two statues that looks like demon gods of the underworld. At the entrance of the cavern there stood two mages wearing coarse hooded cloaks that look like something worn by mysterious dark beings holding staves made of bones.

Shin Jiao could feel the dark mana energy coursing through the bodies of those two dark mages as they use their mana to protect their bodies from the miasma.

"Halt! Who goes there!" shouted one of the mages as he suddenly lifted his bone staff and pointing it to the woman.

"It's me, Linlin.." the woman suddenly said with a frown.

She is trying to hide her name from the man following behind her, but she accidentally blurted it out. So she is a little bit dissatisfied.

"Ah.. Miss Yao.. Welcome back. How are the guardian golems?" the man said with a fawning smile.

When the woman named Linlin heard his words, and she immediately frowns. How could she be happy when she remembers that something or someone has caused his golems to disappear? She did not know how it happened, but it really happened. Those mountain-like golems could not just disappear into thin air, right? So she felt a bit distress. And the other thing is because this guy called her Miss Yao. Now the man behind her knew who she is, which annoyed her a bit.

But she has no time to think anything about that. Right now, she is blaming the dark elves at this time for her golems. This is because they are the only ones who like to challenge those golems.

Those dark elves would always go to the entrance of their territory and would always agitate the golems. So how could she not suspect them?

With regards to the man named Shin Jiao who seems to be hunting that old plague Gan Warbread, she did not believe that he has the ability to defeat any of her golems, much more take them away.

And so, she walks and enters the dark cave in front of her.

"And who are you?" one of the dark mages asked while pointing his bone staff at Shin Jiao.

"Me.. I'm here following her." I said with a smile.

"Miss Yao.. is this true?" the dark mage asked.

Yao Linlin stopped in her tracks and then turns to the side while looking at Shin Jiao at the side of her eyes. She looks a bit cute, but her clothing made it feel a bit weird.

"I don't know him.. But he is following me.." she said while squinting her eyes.

The two dark mages suddenly turned vigilant.

"I.." Shin Jiao felt a little lost.

It is true that the woman did not say that he could follow her. But she is his chance to find that old man. If she points him in the right direction, then maybe his mission here would be done already.

Seeing the distress in his eyes, Yao Linlin suddenly laughed.

"Haha.. You wanted to hunt the old man but you can't even find your way in this place. How would you be able to find him then?" she said with a mocking tone.

Shin Jiao shrugged his shoulder while looking at her.

"That is the reason why I followed you. If you can point me in the right direction, then I will just go there and leave you be.." Shin Jiao said.

"Hihi.. Okay, you sound desperate. I like it.. Follow me inside first." She said while waving her hand.

The two dark mages looks at each other and did not say anything as they let Shin Jiao enter.

The two walk through the cavern and soon arrive in a large space with a murky green lake. Around the lake, there are many wooden houses all over the place making this place a huge community that houses thousands of people.

What surprised Shin Jiao is that inside this place there are no miasma.

The air is clear and the people walk around the place looking calm and collected. The light in this place is dim and pale blue which is produced by luminous stones that could be seen all over the walls and in the ceiling.

As Shin Jiao looks around, he was amazed at the size of the cave and the height of the ceiling which is around 50 meters high.

This place could be considered as a small city. And what Shin Jiao noticed is that, inside this place, everyone has dark energy in their body. This only means that the people in this place are dark mages or have been influenced by dark mages.

Those same slight auras' covering their bodies is like what he had seen when he first met the sibling Im Ao and Im Jae.

As Shin Jiao and Yao Linlin enter the place many people look at them like they are suspicious people. The clothing of the people is made of coarse leather which shows the puberty of the people. Shin Jiao dare not scan this place because upon entering, he suddenly felt something or someone seem to suddenly scan his body.

And that made him feel a little alarmed.

So whoever or whatever that thing is, he would just wait and see first before making a move. But his ultimate goal in coming to this place is not to explore it or do something in it. His only goal is to find Gan Warbread and then go back to Zepa City.

As he follows behind Yao Linlin, they soon arrive in a small wooden house, after passing through an impoverished area where many people asked him for help. Thin-looking kids and dying old people are everywhere.

When the two stopped, Shin Jiao could not help but ask.

"Is this the result of the war?"

Yao Linlin was quiet as she stopped moving. As if thinking for a while, she then turns around and said.

"Yes.. This is what happened to all the dark mages that were defeated in the war. Because we cannot escape outside the inner kingdom, we decided to hide in this place." she said then turn around and open the door.

Shin Jiao could see the sadness in her eyes when she said those words.

He did not say anything and just follow behind her and enter the house.

The house is small and decent. One could tell that there is a woman inside this house. Shin Jiao did not expect that the sloppy-looking woman would be this meticulous in cleaning her own house.

"Take a seat anywhere, I need to change.." she said as she pointed at the chairs while walking towards another room.

Shin Jiao controlled scan his surroundings and did not see anything dangerous, so he just carefully takes a chair and sits on it while looking around the place.

Outside the simple window, he could see the view of the whole lake.

"It looks beautiful.." he muttered.

"Yeah, I know.." Yao Linlin's beautiful voice entered his ears from the side as she walks out of her room.historical

She is now wearing a coarse cloth that looks like what those people outside are wearing. Shin Jiao just took a glance at her and immediately shifted his gaze outside the window.

"How long have you been in this place?" he asked while still looking outside.

"A couple of years.. After the war, my parents died and I was left alone. The woman that saved me taught me how to create golems. And from then on, I stayed in this place.. Oh, she's already dead, so you don't have to worry about anyone in the house.. There's only you and me right now." she said then she walks to the side and takes one of the chairs while sitting next to Shin Jiao.

The proximity between them is too close that both of their shoulders are touching each other.

This close contact made Shin Jiao feel a bit awkward. Though this feeling is not new to him, he still could not help but feel a bit awkward with regard to the straightforwardness of the woman next to him.

"Miss Yao.. I'm here to ask for your help to.." Shin Jiao's words got stuck in his mouth when his lips were suddenly covered by two soft and wet lips of Yao Linlin.
