Towards Eternity
Ch 348's. Continue Your Journey to the Central Region
After thinking for minutes, up to hours, Weng Lou finally chose to bring Man Yue alone.
His promise to Xin Yue made him feel even more guilty if he left Man Yue alone here.
The group of Weng Lou who were outside the city did not move from their place at all until the atmosphere around them began to light up and the sun began to show its figure.
From the western direction of Liming City, the sun coming out from the eastern direction of the city was seen to completely illuminate the entire Liming City which was in a state of disintegration more than half.
Those who grieve over the events of last night look at the morning sun that gives them warmth in their time of grief and sadness as if getting some sort of relief of their grief.
One of the men who was busy straddling the bodies of the residents who died from the attack from the Land Dragon stared at the sun and puffed out his chest.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"
Suddenly, the man shouted out loudly while staring at the morning sky.
The other residents who saw the man's actions were a little surprised and lowered their heads, then followed what he did.
"OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
Before long, one by one the residents who had managed to survive the Earth Dragon attack last night started to shout in the same tone.
"OOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
"OOOOOOOOOO!!!"
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
Old, or young, all of them shouted in the same tone while gazing up at the sky.
It is a custom of the natives of Liming City, that those who had settled in this place before Weng Lou in the ninety-seventh life made them fountains that made their lives change.
This shout is a reminder to all of them that the sadness and suffering they face or experience are all trials given by the god to them, and they must face it.
It is unknown who started it first, for sure, screamed at the sky that morning to release all they felt in their grief.
The screams can be heard to the outside of Liming City, which is where the Weng Lou group is currently located.
While gazing towards the city, they could clearly hear the screams of those people.
They all just quietly heard it until finally the screams were not heard anymore.
"It's time we continue our journey" said Jian Qiang who then stood up from where he was sitting, then walked towards the city.
Weng Lou and the others stared at his back which started to disappear in the distance and sighed one by one.
Pang Baicha stood up and immediately went after Jian Qiang, then Lin Mei, Weng Ying Luan, and lastly, Lin Qiang, Weng Lou and Shan Hu were ordered by Weng Lou to carry the unconscious body of Man Yue.
When they reached the city, there could be seen the destruction of more than half of the city area caused by the Earth Dragon last night.
Weng Lou who saw it all took a deep breath. This was the most deaths he had ever seen in a single day and worse, he was involved in this.
He was not sure what was holding up in his heart right now, guilt or sorrow, which surely Weng Lou could only clench his hands violently watching the destruction.
It was seen that only the roof of the building had been knocked down by being hit by a ground thorn fired by the Earth Dragon, the rest of the others were still in fine condition, even the horse carriage, he said, and their horses are still safe.
Not seen at all people in that place other than them, it seems that the visitors who stayed at this inn immediately left last night because they did not want to get hit by the raging of the Earth Dragon.
Pang Baicha immediately went to tie a horse to their carriage, while Jian Qiang climbed to the top floor of the inn and picked up the rest of his wine that he had not had time to spend last night.
As soon as he got back down and arrived in front of the inn, it was seen that Weng Lou and the others were already on the train and waiting for him.
He casually took a sip of wine directly in his hand which made Pang Baicha who saw him feel a little annoyed.
Jian Qiang himself told them to leave the place immediately, yet he himself seemed too relaxed.
He was eager to curse her, but Pang Baicha soon realized that the strength of himself and Jian Qiang was so different, that he should not foolishly say something that could make him die in his hands.
Jian Qiang immediately climbed onto the carriage, and Pang Baicha directly controlled the horse for the road.
The train moved and started going outside from Liming City.
However, they forget one very important thing. The city's roads are currently filled with the rubble of destroyed buildings, thus making road access stalled.
But as it turned out, it was not a big deal for Weng Lou and Weng Ying Luan who had elementless Qi and easily they both immediately paved the way with the help of their Qi.
Residents who saw were busy cleaning up the rubble of the building were stunned by both.
Weng Lou and Weng Ying Luan had unwittingly helped the half-dead residents to catch a single piece of building debris.
Seeing their very young age makes the residents more excited and began to devote more of their energy in straddling building debris.
Weng Lou's group finally managed to get out of the city after taking almost half an hour due to too much building debris blocking them.
Their train was heading east, where the Central Region was not too far away.
Meanwhile, above the city walls, two figures, men and women wearing all-black clothes, stared at the Weng Lou group horse carriage.
On their left chest, there was a snow-white emblem that was the emblem of the Northern Heavens Sect.
"That's them, after following in their footsteps for about a week, we finally found them" said the man with a serious face.
"Patriak gave the order to kill the three disciples, but it seems like this will not be easy" the woman replied.
"Not only is there someone who has power in the Soul Unification Realm with them, even the level of practice of the three disciples themselves is far different from the information given to us.
This assassination plan we have to do with a mature plan, or else we could have died....."
"Haaa...I still don't understand why the Patriarch told us to do this, wouldn't it be great if we had talented disciples like the three disciples?" ask the woman.
The man who was with her only she closed her eyes for a moment before then replied.
"It doesn't matter, we just have to do what the Patriarch says, or else we'll be killed by him" the man replied.
The figure of the two disappeared like a shadow and moved to follow the train Weng Lou from afar without knowing that actually Weng Lou and Jian Qian had known the existence of the two since they were in Liming City before.
