The Lantern House

The two of them walked until they reached the forest. Throughout the time, neither of them said another word as they walked. Xie Ai also didn't say anything as he was thinking about how to improve his skills and not depend on them too much.

If…. If he was still powerful, Qi Jingguo might not have fallen to such a situation.

He pursed his lips and walked forward until he suddenly hit Yu Weimin's back. "Why did you stop?"

"Where's the forest?"

Xie Ai finally walked forward and stared at the scene ahead of him.

Unlike that time, it was dark all around by the time they walked outside. All the stalls were empty at this time as not even a single commoner was out there.

No one knew what commoners did with the lanterns they purchased. What was even stranger that the houses out there didn't have a single light on, making the entire village look like it was abandoned.

Now, all of a sudden, even the forest had disappeared somewhere.
