After following the shop assistant into the small courtyard, Bella and the other girls were very satisfied. The small courtyard was not big, with a total of six or seven rooms. Although it could not be considered luxurious, it was elegant and unique.
After settling down, Bella sent the shop assistant away. Out of caution, Bella and the others did not plan to eat the food in the shop. After all, Sarila and Garona insisted that there was something strange about this town, so it was better to be careful. Moreover, Jiang Fei had stored a lot of delicious food, enough for a group of people to consume.
Bella and the others quickly chose their rooms and went in. As Jiang Fei was still cultivating, the Shadowsaber Panther he was sitting on was lying in the middle of the small courtyard.
As time passed, the sky quickly darkened. When the sun sank into the mountains and the last trace of light disappeared, the whole town became quiet.
Although the martial arts in the Five Skies were highly civilized, the development of technology was very backward. It was still in the state of working at sunrise and resting at sunset. Therefore, when the sky darkened, people went back to their homes.
Soon, the moon was in the middle of the sky. Jiang Fei was still sitting in the small courtyard cultivating. All kinds of spiritual energy constantly gathered in his body, then transformed into Origin Force and stored in Jiang Fei's body.
When the energy accumulated to a certain level, it was time for Jiang Fei to prepare for a breakthrough.
"Awooo!" A wolf howl came from somewhere, sounding especially eerie in the silent night.
"Something's wrong!" Bella frowned, then walked out of her room.
"Sister Bella, what's wrong?" Ariel, who lived in the same room, also followed.
"I don't know, but I feel danger approaching!" Bella said in a low voice, at the same time, she carefully looked around.
"Danger!"
"That's right! It's a very dangerous feeling! "
Sarila and Garona also walked out of their rooms at the same time.
"What's going on?" The other girls also walked out of their rooms one after another.
"I don't know, but it's definitely not normal!" Bella said while maintaining her vigilance.
"Should we wake our husband up first?" Ariel asked.
"Don't rush. It's very dangerous to be disturbed in the middle of cultivation!" Yu Wanqiu stopped her.
"Okay! Let Hoodlum cultivate first. Don't alarm him unless it's absolutely necessary. With our strength, ordinary people can't hurt us! " At the same time, he called Si Tuying and Sarila to his side. As these two girls were the weakest among them, with only two to three million combat power, they needed special protection.
Time ticked by. At this moment, the air in the town seemed to be filled with an eerie and terrifying aura. However, the town remained calm as if nothing had happened.
It was unknown when a dark cloud had drifted over from the sky. When the dark cloud covered the crescent moon, the clear sound of a door opening suddenly came from the quiet town.
"Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang! "
"Bang, bang, bang …"
As if the floodgates had been opened, the sounds of doors opening never stopped. It was as if all the doors in the town had been opened!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …" Black shadows dashed through the streets.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …" One after another, vigorous figures flashed through the air. These fellows traversed through buildings as if they were walking on flat ground.
"He's here! He's very strong! " Isabella, who had been resting with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes. At this moment, Isabella's black eyes had turned dark green. At the same time, a dark green energy armor had covered her entire body. Clearly, Isabella had entered combat mode!
"…" Silently, Sylphy hid herself. Other than herself, no one knew where she was hiding in the shadows.
"Clang!" With a sweet sound of a sword, Yu Wanqiu's Frost Sword was unsheathed!
"Swoosh!" A cold light flashed. Hua Mulan carried her spear on her back and stood in the middle of the courtyard.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh …" Just as the girls were ready for battle, a black shadow climbed up the courtyard wall.
"Swoosh!" A black shadow pounced on Hua Mulan, who was standing in the middle of the courtyard.
"Clang!" With a loud sound of the spear, Hua Mulan moved. The next moment, the spear pierced through the black shadow's mouth, followed by its throat, and finally came out from its buttocks. It was as if it was piercing through a roasted lamb, pinning the fellow in mid-air!
"What the hell is that?!" At this moment, the girls finally saw the true face of their enemy.
It was a ferocious beast that looked like a wolf or a dog but was not a dog. From the intensity of its attack, it was not very powerful. It was probably between the Golden Core Stage and the Nascent Soul Stage. A ferocious beast of this level was nothing in front of Hua Mulan!
"Howl!" The ferocious beast had been killed by Hua Mulan. The smell of blood that it emitted made the surrounding ferocious beasts even more excited!
"Swoosh!" Hua Mulan swung her spear and threw the carcass of the ferocious beast to the side.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh …" A few black shadows rushed out. They looked like the ferocious beast from before. Clearly, they were the same species.
"Crack! Crack! Crack … "To everyone's surprise, these ferocious beasts did not rush out to save their companions. Instead, they swarmed forward and immediately devoured their dead companions!
"What a cruel race …" Bella frowned as she watched from afar.
"It's actually the Cursed Tribe …" Yu Wanqiu was also stunned.
"Sister Wanqiu, do you know where these fellows came from?" Ariel immediately asked.
"Sigh! These fellows are also pitiful people … "Yu Wanqiu sighed and then told her everything she knew.
It turned out that the Cursed Tribe used to be humans. However, their souls had been taken away by the evil cultivators, leaving only their shells behind. After these shells were cursed by the evil cultivators, they would become monsters that did not recognize beasts. During the day, they would repeat what they did on the day they died. It looked like they were still alive. However, once the moonlight shone down, they would turn into ferocious beasts and attack all foreign species that were different from them.
The ferocious beasts that these fellows transformed into were not limited to a specific species. It all depended on the evil cultivator's curse. However, no matter what kind of ferocious beast they transformed into, they would kill and devour foreign species crazily at night. This included not only the living outsiders but also their dead companions.
"In other words, they are actually already dead … They just left behind their shells to continue to be tortured here!" Yu Wanqiu concluded.
"Those evil cultivators are too evil. How could they do such a heartless thing?" Ariel said indignantly.
"Sigh! Some evil cultivators deliberately torture the bodies of these living souls in order to nurture their resentment. They even bring these living souls here from time to time to let them see with their own eyes what kind of torture their bodies are going through to increase their resentment! "Yu Wanqiu sighed as she said.
