The group arrived at Pingding Mountain.
As they neared the mountain village, their spirits lifted, and they even started to joke and laugh.
If they could spend the night in the village, it would be relatively safe. They just needed to hold on for one more day before meeting up with the Forbidden Guards.
Only Ren Qing's expression grew more and more solemn. He deliberately slowed the group's pace, taking the opportunity to observe their surroundings.
'Those villagers who left so abruptly haven't returned after more than half an hour. They must have run into some kind of trouble.'
'Or are they being compelled by something?'
Xiaowu scratched a swollen mosquito bite on his face and couldn't help but say excitedly, "We're finally at the village."
"Li Quan, are you home?!"
Guo Qing shouted as he ran up the winding path straight toward the village on the mountaintop.
