"Elder Cao, should we be involved?"
Lin Cheung asked worryingly. They were only out to find the forsaken palace and should be on their way. Why should they complicate things in this way?
"Something's wrong. Follow me. Stay quiet and leave everything to me."
Entering the village, they saw a young girl being tied to an Etcher tree with the spectral chains by the side of a path at the entrance of the village. A large number of the villagers, who gathered in front of the tree, were being held back by the village guards.
Ju Feng and the rest of the group were distraught by the scene. Who could tie a young girl to a tree like this? Was she the Xue Wu elder Wang Xiu was talking about? That was truly an unfair and strange world.
