The Ancient Realm Goddess
The Surprising Situation
Qing Yue'er set foot on the forest ground. He felt quite astonished when he did not hear the sounds of life. At least usually he will feel the movement of worms in the soil, or maybe small insects that walk on the leaves. But these forests are different. Is it really that scary that no creature wants to stop in this forest?
After circulating the spirit power for a while, Qing Yue'er began to be skeptical of her mother's whereabouts. There was no other person's aura of life that he could feel. However there were many death auras that felt even stronger.
“My book may not be here,” muttered Qing Yue'er. He advanced a few meters forward to be sure and that was where his confidence faltered. There's a trail of battle! And more worrying is the presence of some rags.
Qing Yue'er immediately picked it up. The cloth was made of a delicate material, the color was very suitable to the color of the clothes that Xie Ying Fei had last worn. The annoying thing is that there is no aura at all. This only added to Qing Yue'er's anxiety.
He quickly darted further and further into the forest. There were many bones and skulls scattered along the ground that Qing Yue'er passed through. Some of them have started to porous eaten after. It must have been a long time.
Out of the overwhelming numbers, Qing Yue'er did not notice any new bones. Maybe the undead population has vanished? Or do they need no food at all? Qing Yue'er did not know because since entering this forest she had not seen a single one of those creatures.
It didn't take long for Qing Yue'er to arrive at the deepest part of the forest. The trees there were bigger and lush so that the sunlight would not be able to break through. This makes the air feel cooler and humid.
A light was seen in the distance. Qing Yue'er immediately approached without finding any problems. His pupils shrank when he saw that light source.
“Mother!” Qing Yue'er shouted from outside the formation wall in the form of a circle of light. Inside was her mother who had lost consciousness. There were some tears in his clothes. His appearance was extremely messy even though there did not seem to be any very serious injuries.
Qing Yue'er tried to enter the formation wall. But he was immediately pushed back when he just touched it. It seemed that the formation was what made him unable to sense his mother's aura. Who would have done something like this?
There's no time to think about this. Qing Yue'er channeled the spiritual qi in hand and tried to destroy the formation. With full force his hand punched the formation wall. Loud explosions were instantly heard in the silence of the forest.
Qing Yue'er was stunned when she saw that wall that was starting to collapse. That's too easy, isn't it? Is it possible that the person who had injured his mother was not stronger than him? Qing Yue'er could not confirm it. But still he felt an oddity.
Not to mention Qing Yue'er moving closer to Xie Ying Fei, suddenly an extremely stinging stench gushed into her nose. Qing Yue'er frowned when she sensed the existence of the creature moving closer. The number could not be counted, but it did not seem to be small.
“It's coming now,” said Ying Jun from inside the dimension. “Do I need to get out now?”
He's spreading his eyes. There are many creatures that must somehow be described. They did not differ much from humans, only that there were many protruding muscles behind their pale gray skin. Black eyes, then empty eyes. His fingernails are long and sharp, perhaps tearing apart other creatures.
“Haizz.” Qing Yue'er shook her head when she realized the creatures were not clad in clothes. Is this the undead in question? It doesn't look scary, but it's terrible in other ways.
The longer Qing Yue'er realized their increasing number. This reminded him of the battle against demons in the Devil's Gorge, long ago.
“I don't want to bother fighting against them,” muttered Qing Yue'er. He rushed over to Xie Ying Fei, checking her pulse for a moment. Not yet concluded, suddenly he saw the corner of his mother's lips drawn into a grin.
Qing Yue'er's heart seemed to stop beating. He immediately jumped back, but it seemed a little late. His right leg was already firmly gripped by the woman. Qing Yue'er gritted her teeth and immediately gave a hard kick. Too bad everything is not that easy.
A slightly terrible change occurred. The woman that Qing Yue'er thought was her own mother turned out not to be. Appearance changed. Xie Ying Fei's face was replaced with another woman's face that looked foreign. Both of his eyes were extremely sharp, his lips as red as blood alluded to a sneer. From his face alone he already looked vile.
The fingernails that were gripping Qing Yue'er's feet suddenly extended. The woman narrowed and ruthlessly tightened her grip until her nails pierced into Qing Yue'er's skin.
Not stopping there, the woman then twisted her wrists until her nails tore and tore the flesh on Qing Yue'er's delicate legs. Fresh blood instantly seeped out and fell dripping onto the ground.
All of that happened in a very short time, even Qing Yue'er was not given time to put up a fight. This was truly a terrifying event that he had never expected. The pain instantly stung Qing Yue'er's consciousness. He gritted his teeth and refrained from grimacing.
Qing Yue'er could not be slow. The undead horde moved ever closer and the foreign woman would probably break her legs easily. If he did not move immediately then his body would end up being minced meat undead food.
