Quan Estate, Dawn City.
Quan Dongjing paced about back and forth in his room. A whole day had passed since they had lost all contact with not just Quan Yahui but all the members of the family who had entered the Forest of Endless Trees. Any attempt at searching for them had brought about no results and instead had only cost them more lives. Even sending in cultivators did not do them much favours.
Something about the forest seemed to have changed. While that place had always been incredibly dangerous, if one was careful and did not cross any boundaries, they would be able to make it in pretty deep with relative ease. However, now, just stepping foot on the outskirts spelled certain doom. The Quan Family had been taught this very clearly when one of their elders in the Blood Cleansing Realm had up and vanished like the rest.
