Towards Eternity
Ch 356's. Three People Who Have Long Without News
With a sense of happiness, Weng Lou opened one of the packets of cake contained in the ring belonging to Siwang Hua.
Without a second thought he took a piece of cake and put it all straight into his mouth.
A few seconds later, the cake ran out and he took another cake. Weng Lou continued to eat the cake until only three-quarters of the pack was left and then tied the package back.
Weng Lou never calmly ate the cake he had in his storage room because he always thought that the cakes would soon run out if he was not careful. Now that the matter was completely resolved, he had more supplies now.
And of course, it was unknown to either Weng Ying Luan or Lin Mei.
All these cakes are his!!
In his heart, Weng Lou was grateful that Weng Ying Luan had not helped him in the fight earlier, or if not, then he had to split half the cake he got.
After finishing searching Du Bishou and Siwang Hua's bodies, Weng Lou immediately buried them in the same hole without giving any sign of the grave of the two at all.
He realized, that both of them must have only followed the orders of the person who told them to not treat their bodies too cruelly, even though the body of Du Bishou who had no head was very cruel, thought.
Weng Lou returned to the camp after doing all that, of course with a very happy mood.
He wants to go back to sleep soon, and dreams of himself eating a cake without having to fear running out at all.
***
While Weng Lou and the others were resting on the outskirts of the Fog Forest, in Yulong City, a group of people were seen walking into the city.
The quiet atmosphere of the night made no one know of the arrival of this group of ten people.
The ten people walked over and arrived in front of an inn building, the same inn that Weng Lou, Weng Ying Luan, Lin Mei, and Shan Hu were wearing.
One of the men, who looked the oldest, was a man in his late forties, leading nine others into the inn.
Upon arriving inside, they were immediately greeted by a woman in her thirties while putting on her sweet smile to the ten people.
"Good night, did you come here to stay?" ask the woman while still putting on her smile.
"Yes, we'd like to book a room. How many rooms do you still have?" ask the man who led the group.
"We still have four rooms left, the inside is wide enough that it can be used for two to three people in one bed" the woman replied with a courtesy call.
"We're the fourth message."
The man spoke while throwing a bag of money at the woman and was immediately caught by the woman quickly.
"Okay sir, please come with me."
They were taken to the second floor where there were four empty rooms. The occupants usually book a room on the first floor or even on the top floor so the room on the second floor is sometimes always empty.
After arriving at the second floor, the woman gave the room key to the man who led the group, then went back down to the first floor.
Moments later, the man asked nine people who followed him to meet him.
"Our room is fair, women take two rooms, men take two rooms" he said calmly.
But then, one of the nine people facing the man raised his hand. He was a young man around fifteen years old, and appeared to be wearing all-grey clothes.
"But the elders, the men total six, while the women are only four men"
The man calmly spoke to the young man, then handed them the room keys.
The nine people looked at each other then formed a group for the room, then immediately rushed into the room and rested.
Before long, the second floor hallway was empty again leaving the figure of the leader of the group alone.
The man stared at the deserted city streets for a while, before then leaping out, then ascending onto the roof of the inn building.
Leisurely, he placed himself and sat quietly gazing at the beautiful moon night.
Inside one of the girls' rooms, two girls, aged fourteen and fifteen, were lying on the bed and chatting.
"It is not felt that our journey from the Family Castle to this city takes more than two weeks even though we go through a route that uses a straight line." One of the girls spoke while staring at the ceiling of the room.
This girl has brownish hair with a length up to her back. The clothes he wore were dark blue with a family crest on his left chest.
"Em, if it wasn't for that bunch of bandits blocking our way, we would have arrived this afternoon, and could have gone looking for food" replied the girl with him.
She has a snow-white hair color that has a length up to her hips, with a very white and clean skin color. Both of her eyeballs appeared to be pomegranate red, and made her look extremely beautiful and graceful, at least one level above the girl she was with.
The shirt she wore was light blue with the same family crest on her left chest.
The two of them remained silent for a while before the brown-haired girl got up and changed her position to sit down, and looked at the night sky through the window that both of them left open.
"What do you think that idiot is doing right now?" asked the brown-haired girl to the white-haired girl.
"Hm? Maybe she was busy practicing, it was her habit every time" replied the white-haired girl as she continued to look at the ceiling of the room.
The brown haired girl smiled faintly then sighed.
"Maybe he would be very surprised if he saw our current development. At that time he said that we would meet for three more years, and by that time everything should already be at the lowest level 12 Foundation Base, and those who have not achieved it will get punished.
When the three of us heard it back then, none of the three of us were sure it could arrive within three years. Yet look now, you are even close to ascending to the realm of stage 7 Soul Cleansing, me and Wan have already ascended to the realm of intermediate stage 6 Soul Cleansing.
No one ever thought of it. From the letter his father gave him, he managed to break into that famous Northern Heavens Sect, I believe he is also already in the Soul Cleansing realm like us right now." The brown-haired girl spoke in a soft voice.
"I get impatient to see her," said the white-haired girl continuing the conversation that had been stalled for a few seconds.
"Me too, I hope we'll meet soon."
After talking for a few more minutes, the two decided to take a break.
In the other room which is one of the men's rooms.
The young man was wearing black sleeveless clothes, and was sitting cross-legged on the floor, while his friends were already resting.
This young man had stout muscles on both his arms, and his hair was cut short.
He with full concentration was absorbing the efficacy of a pill he had swallowed a moment ago.
Shortly after, he opened his eyes, and exhaled a long breath.
"A little more, and I'll get to the peak 6th stage. I will be at stage 7 in a few weeks, and will be able to enter that Free Martial Tournament with ease. Just wait for Lou, you will be surprised to see the improvement from me," said the young man who then chose to meditate again.
The figure of the three people who had long disappeared without any news, began to look back. Will a meeting of four friends take place?
