Chapter 197 The Danger Continued

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The dangerous situation was horrible and threatening. Frowning, Turtle Elf looked at Jiuyou Sage, and its heart almost jumped out of its throat. It dared not to urge him, and was worried that the old devil might be suspicious because of its slip of the tongue.

It could only wait. Looking at the mysterious entrance, it hoped that there would be no flash and noise in the Cave of Fate, and Jiuyou Sage would soon leave so that the dangerous situation might come to an end.

At the most critical moment, Turtle Elf was unable to make the decision, and it could only pray. It didn’t know what would happen, and what kind of dangers would break out.

Turtle Elf dared not to think of the terrible consequences, and they could only be arranged by the fate of Zhang Yunyan, Shikong and its own.

In the Cave of Fate, the two sides were still in a stalemate.

The weird bird did not want to let go of the prey that broke into the forbidden land, and it was still hovering above, looking for a chance to attack.

Zhang Yunyan dared not to be slack, and she was standing in front of Shikong nervously with eyes glued to the weird bird. She would not give any chance to the bird to attack him.

Of course, her preparation was unnecessary, and it was her psychological defense mechanism, and her gut reaction. With no ability to fight against the terrible magic, she could only be attacked.

Nevertheless, she still thought that perhaps the weird bird would not attack a woman, and she could prevent it from performing magic so that Jiuyou Sage outside would not be disturbed.

Shikong was very nervous and anxious. He focused on every move of the weird bird, ready to fight with it, and resist the bird’s attack.

Of course, if the weird bird really started to move, he had no time to care about the old devil outside, instead, he must concentrate to deal with it.

At this moment, Zhang Yunyan and Shikong had to guard against the weird bird as well as pay attention to Jiuyou Sage, in case of any change. In the critical moment of life and death, they were both anxious and scared, and dared not to relax their vigilance.

Outside the cave of Fate, the wind was whistling in all directions, and the roars of the Red Hair King Ghost and his brothers sounded constantly, which scared the frightened hearts.

Pacing back and forth in front of the entrance, Jiuyou Sage was wandering and thinking. He didn’t want to leave for the time being.

Turtle Elf was nervous and it was struggling to conceive of a plan. It sometimes looked at Jiuyou Sage and sometimes the entrance, feeling terrified and nervous. Sweating, it was worried that something unexpected might happen in the Cave of Fate, and then disturb the devil and cause trouble.

Finally, Jiuyou Sage paused to look at Turtle Elf, and no one could know what he was thinking about.

The old devil thought for a moment and said, “We have searched the cave for so long, but we found no trace of the woman, which is suspicious. I want to change my way, and stop searching for her so blindly. It will not ensure the result and instead, she would get alert and find chance to hide.”

Not knowing what Jiuyou Sage was thinking, Turtle Elf was still nervous. It hoped that he would quit. It asked, “Sage, should we stop searching?”

“No, we should not stop. Instead, we must make more efforts. The woman must be caught. She is a great supplement, and a beauty like a flower. She is a treasure for free.”

Turtle Elf sighed secretly. This old devil would not stop. What should it do?

Jiuyou Sage said, “Divide the jobs with Red Hair King Ghost and his brothers. Each one takes care of their own part, and there can be no room left. You must search for her constantly, and leave no chance for that woman to rest. Force her to run around and have nowhere to hide. Besides, don’t make this a big deal. You need to keep it quiet. Don’t disturb the woman. She won’t know where we are, or where she can hide. Sooner or later we will find her.”

Turtle Elf felt amazed secretly. If Yun Feiyan and Shikong were still hiding in the cave, they were doomed to get into the trap, and they would soon die.

As its two human friends had already taken refuge in the Cave of Fate, it felt slightly relieved. Then, it deliberately asked, “Can this work?”

“There should be no problem. Let’s try.” Jiuyou Sage said, “Turtle Elf, now that you are here, take charge of this place. If you see that woman, catch her at once, and remember to report anything suspicious.”

Turtle Elf let out a sigh of relief, because this arrangement made no difference to these two people in the Cave of Fate, and they could still see each other and make discussions at any time. With the division of tasks, the devils would no longer visit here, which was safer.

It replied, “Sage, you can rest assured that I won’t give that woman any chance. If she runs here, she will be caught at once. Sage, since you have already made a plan, we must make sure the Red Hair King Ghost and his brothers guard each place as soon as possible lest the woman runs away.”

Jiuyou Sage came to the entrance of the Cave of Fate, and began to look around silently. The wall he saw was already familiar to him. He kept listening and thinking. No one knew what he was up to.

Seeing that Jiuyou Sage was so focused on the Cave of Fate, Turtle Elf was panicked, and it was afraid there was a sound inside. Even the slightest sound would alarm the old devil.

It urged him quickly, “Sage, we can no longer delay. We must ask the Red Hair King Ghost and his brothers to work as soon as possible. We can’t let the woman escape! If someone really breaks in to save her, it will be even worse.”

Looking at Turtle Elf, Jiuyou Sage nodded. Then he looked at the Cave of Fate, and then sighed.

He said, “Turtle Elf, you must search here more carefully and leave her no chance to hide. I’m going to order the Four King Ghosts to guard their places and start their search. After that, I’ll go to the places we ignored and see if the woman is hiding there. I hope I can catch her, and I won’t have to fight anymore.” Then, he got up and left.

Although Zhang Yunyan and Shikong knew that Jiuyou Sage left, they did not feel relieved. Instead, they were still looking at the weird bird vigilantly, paying attention to its every move, in case it would attack them suddenly.

In the Cave of Fate, it was dark and strangely quiet, which made people frightened and scared.

The details of the bird’s body were not clear in the darkness. But it was covered with colored spots of light, so its long and flat shape was recognizable.

Turtle Elf finally calmed down and it kept wiping the sweat. It looked at the entrance of the Cave of Fate where there was no sound inside. It didn’t know how Zhang Yunyan and Shikong were, and if they were safe and sound. It was afraid to ask them and was afraid to distract them. So, it could only wait anxiously.

To Turtle Elf’s relief, the roars of the Four King Ghosts faded away, and the howling evil wind also stopped. It seemed that the devils had gone to search in separate ways, and finally this place was quiet.

Inside the Cave of Fate, it was tense and dark, and the atmosphere continued. The terrifying weird bird was waiting for the chance to claim the lives of the intruders…

Since Jiuyou Sage had left, and there were no dangers outside, Zhang Yunyan and Shikong were a little relieved. They were still at the hands of the weird bird, but it was lucky enough for them to avoid the arrest of the devil.

The weird bird was still hovering above, watching, and it never gave up looking for the opportunity to attack.

Zhang Yunyan kept standing in front of Shikong, protecting her benefactor.

Shikong was hiding behind Yunyan with eyes glued to the devil’s every move, ready to deal with the dangerous situation at any time.

The weird bird found no opportunity to attack and kill Shikong, so it could only wait. This bird’s behavior was too strange, for it ignored the woman and only paid attention to the monk. It was controlled in weird behaviors, unable to launch its attack for the time being.

The bird was hovering above, looking calm and patient. It didn’t launch its attack and was not discouraged. It was just waiting. Perhaps it just hadn’t found the opportunity yet.

Looking at the weird bird, Zhang Yunyan and Shikong were confused. This bird could kill them at any time, and did not need to look for opportunities. What was it still waiting for?

The two sides were in confrontation. No one knew when it would end. If it would end, how to change this situation, and when the tragic end would come?

Suddenly, the weird bird flew to the rock.

It was a bulging stone, and above it were the words “the Cave of Fate”, and the big word of fate which was still glowing.

It was motionless, staring at Zhang Yunyan and Shikong. They did not know whether it was at rest, or was planning on how to kill them.

Looking at the bird vigilantly, these two people were still nervous and dared not to relax in case of its sudden attack. In the face of the powerful monster, and its magic, their defense was useless, but only had psychological effect.

The Cave of Fate was dark, quiet, and the atmosphere was tense and frightening.

The weird bird stood still. No one knew what it was thinking, and what it was up to.

The creature was extremely strange compared with the ordinary bird. In short, it was an underdeveloped freak, and there was no other one like it in the world.

The monster was a bird without a tail and a visible head. No one could tell where the eyes and the mouth were. It was like a headless bird with horribly ugly appearance.

Its body was very special with angles and the color of bluish green. It looked bare, as if there was no feather, otherwise those shining spots could not be seen.

Those colorful “stars” were flashing constantly, adding some colors to the strange body. These colors were not beautiful at all, and they only showed how sinister and horrible it was.

This kind of bird was hard to find in the world. At least these two people had not seen it. It was the strangest bird.

This bird was extraordinary as an elf, with profound skills and powerful magic. Because it was a monster, its strangeness and the terrifying magic were not surprising.

Zhang Yunyan and Shikong did not look away from the weird bird, and they kept observing it.

They were a little surprised and even more puzzled. How did this bird become like this?

The wings of the weird bird seemed to have disappeared, otherwise its whole body would be seen beneath the milky, cloud-like wings.

They believed they had seen that. The flat green body was sparkling with colorful “starlight” completely and clearly. There was no space that was covered, and no color of milky white.

Where did the pair of milky wings go? This was an indispensable part of a bird, and it was essential to a bird. How came there were wings and next minute they all disappeared?
