Change

It was just as Will thought, this is a village. However, what makes this village different from others, is that the houses here are built on top of the towering trees. Some places were open platforms, with huge bird demon beasts quietly standing there.

On the head of the bird thingy, there's a crown-like item glowing in the darkness. The light that shot into the sky must have come from these jewels.

This place should be a huge village with tens of thousands of residents living here. Furthermore, from the location that he's standing, there are even more lights in the mountains. Seems like there isn't just one settlement here. This place he could tell from his memories was the place Nie lie came to at first as well, but it makes his work easier, since he can start his work on this family after he finds out what his change done to Sikong Hongyue, and with the addition of the new memories to her, it might have changed a lot of things.

Looking around he saw Some of the grey leather armour guards were holding sharp spears, standing on the branches of some of the huge trees. Not far from his current location, knocking sounds could be heard on top of the mountainside, they seem to be digging something, which would definitely be the blood crystals.

Guard 1: You dare slack off?! do you want to die

One of the guards spoke in the Woodland Empire's language. He was mercilessly whipping the miners. Some of the miners couldn't withstand the chores and fell to the ground. The guards seemed to have no compassion and continued whipping them, until one of the miners stopped breathing, he then coldly barked,

Guard 1: Drag him away and clean the area!

The ore that they are mining is the raw stone of the Blood Crystal. The usage of the Blood Crystal is doubtless. Although only one Blood Crystal could be refined from a few hundred pounds of the raw stone, it's already significant. Aside from will and his girls these blood crystal is an important treasure of sorts for the people of this world.

Just then a figure emerged from the grass and appeared before his eyes.

Girl: Who are you?

A tribal girl, wielding a long sword appeared from the grass. She was warily looking at Will, filled with hostility.

Will took a look at her. She looked different from an ordinary human. She had a pair of silver coloured wings growing from her back. These wings didn't come from merging with a demon spirit, but grew naturally on her body. She's wearing silver Armour, and those green eyes of hers were emitting a faint light in the darkness.

Will realized who she was, this is the Silver Winged girl Sikong Hongue, and She's at least a 5-star Gold rank expert!

Will: hehe, have you forgotten me already, ha, Sikong.

Hearing Will speak the standard Woodland Empire's language, a hint of doubt flashed within the girl's eyes and she solemnly asked.
