After Qin Mu's injuries healed, he brought the gift for the devil ape out of the village and walked towards the valley of Doom Suppression Palace. Just as he left the village, he saw a strange beast dragging a corpse. Seeing him coming, the strange beast immediately gave a low hiss and the fur on its neck stood up.
The river water gurgled and a few strange beasts jumped out from the bottom of the river. They had fish heads and human bodies and ran towards the other corpses. When these strange beasts saw Qin Mu, they immediately stopped in their tracks and crawled on the ground, not daring to go forward.
Qin Mu didn't mind. During the two days he was recuperating, there were divine arts practitioners from Yankang chasing after him who had found their way here. Before they could even enter the village, they were all eliminated by him using the things that could be seen everywhere in the village.
There were some things in the village that were extremely terrifying. Other than the worms in the earthen jar, there was also the rake used to gather grass, the curtain of the blacksmith's shop, the water jar, the sword pellet under Madam Si's bed, the whetstone used by the Butcher, the trough used to feed the chickens, and the face basin that was taken away by the Dragon Unicorn as its rice bowl.
There were quite a number of people chasing after Qin Mu. Other than Long Jiaonan's group of strong practitioners, there should be other groups of experts from various sects. During the two days when Qin Mu was recuperating, many people had found their way here.
Disabled Elderly Village wasn't hard to find. It was built along the river and was only a thousand miles away from Border Dragon City. Border Dragon City wasn't far from the borders of Yankang so if they wanted to search, they could still find their way here.
Qin Mu estimated that there were forty to fifty people who had found their way here. Of course, they were all dead now.
"Long Jiaonan didn't find her way here. Could she have gotten lost or been killed on the way? Or … "
When Qin Mu was in the village, he always felt a pair of eyes staring at him from outside the village. It was like a huge venomous snake hiding in the dark and could pounce on him at any time.
"She's nearby?"
He had walked out of the village this time to lure Long Jiaonan out.
Long Jiaonan had a deep grudge with him and the extermination of Dragon Rider Sect was caused by Qin Mu. If it wasn't for Qin Mu summoning the devil in Heaven Wave City and Dutian Devil King, Dragon Rider Sect wouldn't have been exterminated so easily.
Qin Mu walked to the Doom Suppression Palace and saw that there were many wild beasts here, but the Devil Ape and the Dragon Elephant were not here.
He looked around but couldn't find any trace of them. The wild beasts in the valley didn't know how to cultivate and couldn't speak, so he didn't know where the devil ape had run off to.
Qin Mu could only return to Disabled Elderly Village. After another two days, he finally couldn't sit still any longer. It was close to the end of the year and there were only two to three days left. Madam Si, Village Chief, and the rest still hadn't returned!
"The elders in the village are really worrisome!"
He went to the Doom Suppression Palace again, but still did not see the Devil Ape. He became more and more anxious.
"Fatty Long, get up!"
Qin Mu tidied up and fed some insects and hen dragons. He then wiped off the fixed word on Dutian Devil King's body and summoned the Dragon Unicorn. "Let's go to the depths of Great Ruins to find them!"
Dutian Devil King stretched his body and sneered. "Even a half-god like Deaf couldn't return from Great Ruins, so what's the use of you going?"
Qin Mu shook his head. "Even though my abilities aren't high, I have helpers. Devil king, you are also of the Heavenly Devil Race, right? "
Dutian Devil King said proudly, "So you want to borrow my strength. If you treat me better, it's not impossible for me to help you. However, you hitting me for no reason makes me unhappy. You have to curry favor with me, then I will help you. "
Qin Mu asked curiously, "How can I curry favor with Lord Devil King?"
Dutian Devil King became excited and was about to say what he always said when he suddenly felt that something was wrong. If he said it, he would be the one to kneel down and lick his toes.
Qin Mu said firmly, "If you put in effort to help me find them, I will release you. How about this condition? "
Dutian Devil King's eyes lit up. "Deal?"
"It's a deal!"
Qin Mu tidied up and walked out of Disabled Elderly Village. He let the Dragon Unicorn go up the river. Village Chief and the rest were searching for the whereabouts of Carefree Village. Previously, Village Chief had brought Qin Mu along the river to the depths of Great Ruins, the source of Surging River, where they had seen numerous strange things.
However, what they had found wasn't Carefree Village, but Moon Ship in Fengdu.
Moon Ship had pulled the jade pendant on Qin Mu's neck, allowing it to float up. Only then had Qin Mu been lured to that place.
Qin Mu felt that when Village Chief and the rest were searching for Carefree Village, they must have started from there. They might have left behind some clues.
The Dragon Unicorn's footsteps weren't slow, but compared to Village Chief's, it was much slower. When Village Chief brought Qin Mu along, he was like a god shining with resplendent light in the darkness as he walked through Great Ruins at an extremely fast speed.
Qin Mu could only enter Great Ruins during the day, and when night came, he could only find other villages or ruins to hide from the darkness.
Great Ruins during the day and Great Ruins at night were two completely different worlds. Village Chief guessed that Great Ruins was the real world during the day, and when night came, another world of darkness overlapped with Great Ruins.
If Village Chief and the rest entered the world of darkness and were taken away by the darkness, Qin Mu wouldn't be able to find them.
