The Sky Dragon Swordsman
#112. Ghost Valley

The fire ape stealth leader looks angry to see the formation of his men ravaged by the attack of Mathanadeva from the back not to mention the follow-up attacks carried out by the soldiers who along with him also took the victims of stealth - stealth already wounded, but he had just turned his body to attack Mathanadeva, a sword incision landed on his body...

"Never turn your face away from your enemies..!! " said Chen Khu who had returned to keep his distance because of the heat of the fire on the body of the monkey demon, while Mathanadeva also immediately ordered his soldiers to retreat after hearing a warning from Chen Khu.. and practically the gurjara and the soldiers and warriors of Nalagarh are now penonto. They watched as two high-level warriors faced an ape demon whose entire body was covered in flames.

"What are our plans Chen Khu.. I can't stand the heat if it gets too close..? " cried Mathanadeva who stood at the opposite position to Chen Khu and with the fire ape demon was in the tangah.

"Use the inner strength to suppress the slight heat energy that his majesty released." replied Chen Khu and a moment later Chen Khu immediately jumped forward attacking the fire ape demon who was ready to wait for his attack.

Chen Khu exerted his profound strength to reduce the heat he felt and also added a deep energy to the energy sword he made so that the sword grew longer.. Chen Khu tried to fight at a distance so as not to use too much inner power to suppress the heat released by the fire ape demon.

Chen Khu who had just studied the energy changes made up of the four elements had thought of using the water element to attack the fire ape demon, the fire ape, it was just that he had so far not been able to use the energy change, and was forced to fight as usual by continuing to rely on his speed.. and occasionally have to jump back and keep a distance to rearrange his breath.

Mathanadeva did as instructed by Chen Khu and went forward to attack, it was just that his speed was still far below Chen Khu and that made the fire ape demon easily break the attacks - the attacks he did were just that the fire ape demon had not been able to urge Mathanadeva because Chen Khu was not give him a chance to do that.. the attacks carried out alternately and without pause made the ape demon slowly - the land began to be pressed and the fire that enveloped his body began to shrink as more and more injuries were on his body.

"Remember, do not kill him.we must make him escape." said Chen Khu who immediately jumped on Mathanadeva after launching his attack.

"Well Chen Khu" replied Mathanadeva and immediately attacked the ape demon in place of Chen Khu.

The attack launched by Mathanadeva although not as fast as Chen Khu but able to continue to give wounds - incision wounds on the body of fire ape and wounds given by Mathanadeva is not serious and deliberately made far from the vital organs of the demon, and finally the plan of both goes..

The fire ape demon that was constantly pressed because it was continuously being attacked alternately began to look desperate and as if looking for an opening to escape, he said, and knowing this Chen Khu pretended to take a breath for a moment to give the demon a chance to escape.

The fire ape demon that got a break from his two opponents did not waste the opportunity to escape and of course that is what Chen Khu and Mathanadeva are waiting for chasing the demon that got away.

"Shiva.take the soldiers back to the capital and increase the guard at the palace." cried Mathanadeva as he continued to follow Chen Khu who was chasing the fire ape demon.

The fire ape demon who felt that it had escaped death continued to move quickly between the trees and tried to run as far as possible and was not overtaken by his two opponents, because a few moments before the demon could feel if Chen Khu and Mathanadeva were chasing him.. and after some time and feeling himself safe, the ape demon began to slow down without realizing that Chen Khu and Mathanadeva were following him from a distance by hiding the aura of power they had.

The fire ape demon continued to move nonstop even though the wounds on his body that continued to bleed made his physique continue to weaken and the ape demon only stopped for when it began to darken.

The thickening of the trees and the sound of forest insects became the decoration of the night, when Chen Khu and Mathanadeva also took a break. They do not light a fire to simply warm themselves from the cold of the night wind because the fire ape demon will realize their existence if it is done, and the two men did not lower their vigilance by keeping an eye on the fire ape demon alternately until finally morning.

When the sun began to appear on the eastern horizon.The fire monkey demon again moved by jumping from one branch to another and more and longer following the fire monkey demon, the fire monkey, Chen Khu and Mathanadeva continued to go deeper into the forest and unknowingly they had come out of the gurjara region and entered the forbidden forest area in which there was a valley that was almost all the time covered by the fog called the ghost valley.

***

The forest is prohibited from entering the Andhara kingdom and the people who live around the forest as a forest ban because there are often people who enter the forest to look for wood or rattan never to return.

Events like this are actually a new thing for residents around the forest, because decades they depend on life by looking for rattan in this forest to sell.. just rhyme since more than ten years ago many strange things happened, so the village elders forbid their citizens to enter the forest and name the forest with a forbidden forest.

***

Half a day Chen Khu and Mathanadeva trekked through the forbidden forest of going up and down the bukiy by trailing the fire ape demon, finally before their eyes lay a very wide and beautiful valley.. in the middle of the valley, there was a large village, some buildings were quite large, and the fire ape demon they followed was seen entering the village.

Chen Khu and Mathanadeva decided to stop and watch the valley from a distance and did not rush to enter the village. The two men chose a hill closest to the valley where the hill is a karst hill and there are many niches that they can use to hide.

"We should just hide here, your majesty. because I think. I heard the turmoil in my stomach because it has not been filled a day last night." said Chen Khu who was greeted with laughter Mathanadeva.
