"Don't look at me like that." As if sensing Chen Heng's surprised gaze, Wendy shrugged and said, "I told you, this is not my real body. It's just a subsidiary body. I have many more subsidiary bodies like this. If you like them, just have some fun. Don't worry about it."

She smiled, "The body itself doesn't know anything. She was just an ordinary girl if I didn't wake up."

"I'll consider it if there's a chance." Chen Heng looked calm as he said softly, seemed very quiet.

In fact, it would be difficult for ordinary people to be interested in that girl after knowing this.

"You're really boring." The girl shook her head and said as she walked to the side, "Remember my name, Elena. Now, come with me."

There was someone standing beside her. Chen Heng looked over and saw the burly tavern owner standing there respectfully. He was not in a deep sleep either. Instead, he looked calm, completely different from his rough appearance during the day.

Chen Heng could not help but feel enlightened.

No wonder...

Chen Heng already felt that something was not right during the day. This tavern owner's attitude towards Wendy seemed to be a little too amiable. However, he did not care back then, thinking it was due to the intimate relationship between the two. Yet now, it seemed that this tavern owner was also one of them. So naturally, he knew Wendy's true identity.

Elena walked in front, going out of the tavern together, while the tavern owner followed behind. As they stepped out, they could feel the fresh air in the outside world, making people feel refreshed and immediately sobered up.

Chen Heng looked up at the sky. It was unknown when the original small town had been covered by a layer of fog directly shrouding this area. If one were to look from the outside, they would see that the entire town had been completely obscured, and they would not be able to see anything. As for those inside, they were not able to see much either.

So Chen Heng tried to mobilize his mind and explore the area for a moment. His spiritual power was powerful. Normally, he could cover an area of several hundred meters around him and control all the elements within. However, he was hindered now.

His powerful spiritual power continued to advance, but it encountered an obstacle before reaching three meters. It could not penetrate, as if it was swallowed by something hidden in the darkness, unable to advance further. This scene made Chen Heng cast a sidelong glance.

"Follow closely." Elena's voice was heard from the front, with a faint smile on her face, "Something bad would happen if we lose them."

Holding a lantern in her hand, she took the lead and walked out. The scarlet lantern emitted a scarlet glow combined with the deep fog around it. Like sunlight, the fog quickly dissipated and could no longer be used.

Suddenly, a path appeared out of thin air before them. Looking at this scene, Chen Heng realized that something was wrong. He had already walked through the entire town during the day. With his memory, there shouldn't be any mistakes. Even if he had just walked through it once, he would be able to remember most of the scenery in the town.

There was no such road in the town during the day. In other words, were they no longer in the town during the day? Chen Heng pondered. Then, he silently walked forward and silently followed behind Elena.

The tavern owner walked beside him without saying a word and silently followed Elena. His tall and sturdy body gave people a sense of security.

Chen Heng deliberately paid attention to it and made some discoveries. First, the tavern owner's face was a little dull, and there weren't as many spiritual fluctuations in his eyes as ordinary people. From his looks, it didn't seem like he had an independent mind.

'A puppet?' This thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind, but his actions didn't change, and he just silently walked forward.

Not long after, they arrived at a completely unfamiliar place. According to Chen Heng's memories during the day, this place should be the town center. There was a pretty good flower bed with many wildflowers. There was also a thick and strong tree standing tall with luxuriant branches and leaves.

However, there were no such things before him. Instead, a pitch-black tree stood tall, with no leaves but only a few heads hanging on the withered branches.

Chen Heng took a look. Those heads looked distorted and shriveled as if they had been dead for years. He did not know when these unlucky people had died and why they had appeared in this place. Unfortunately, however, these people had died miserably. There was still a strong resentment and a strong spiritual infection in the heads.

As they walked forward, a pale arm suddenly stretched out from behind and rested on Chen Heng's shoulder. Chen Heng subconsciously turned around and saw a cold corpse standing there.

It was a very shriveled corpse that had been dead for some years. Many parts of its body were rotten. One could see the shriveled internal organs and white bones inside. The only thing missing was its head.

A ghastly and terrifying feeling emerged. Then, Chen Heng turned around and saw more mummies around him, which had unknowingly surrounded him. They slowly moved forward, waving their arms as they walked towards Chen Heng, surrounding him in the center.

Elena, who had been leading the way, had unknowingly disappeared. Chen Heng's face was blank. He silently looked at the dried corpse before him and could not see any light.

Then, the mist gradually spread, and the sound of flesh being torn sounded continuously, accompanied by a strong bloody smell.

"He just arrived. It's not the etiquette to welcome guests in this manner." Elena's voice sounded on the spot.

A bonfire was burning in an open area, and several figures were sitting around the bonfire.

A young man in a black robe with a gloomy face sneered, "What does it matter? This is not an official member of our parliament. It's a good opportunity to try out my new spell."

"Prince Alan is a guest the bishop invited personally. Maybe he would become our colleague in the future." The smile on Elena's face did not change as she said, "Aren't you afraid of offending him in the future? If the prince gets angry, we won't be able to bear it."

Though she said this, she did not seem to have any intention of stopping the young man. Instead, she just stood there without moving, silently watching the show.

"If his strength is not enough, he would die." The young man sneered and said, "As for Alan, what kind of highness is he? One day sooner or later..."

"What would happen one day?" Another young man at the side said with a grin, "Are you planning to kill Alan at the Violet Empire?"

"That's possible." Elena continued to speak at the side with a wide smile, "After all, Prince Alan's big brother has a grudge against Pru."

They were joking around, but they quickly realized something was wrong because, before them, the black-robed young man suddenly stopped moving. He sat there, not knowing when he had stopped moving. Only the occasionally faint sound of breathing could be heard.

"Pru?" The youth beside him realized something was wrong but could not help but be stunned when he looked over.

He saw that Pru's body was slightly trembling. His previously confident and arrogant expression had completely disappeared and was replaced by fear and disbelief.

"H-how could it be..." He was shocked, and his pupils gradually dilated as if he had seen something that terrified him.

Fresh blood flowed from Pru's mouth and nose, drenching his clothes. Elena and the youth were instantly stunned.

Yet, in the distance, the crisp sound of footsteps continued to sound.

"I'm sorry." A gentle and magnetic voice again sounded, carrying a tactful apology, "There seemed to be some unexpected situation just now. Fortunately, I managed to deal with it in time and rushed over. However, judging from the situation, it seems that I came at a bad time?"

Elena looked before her and saw Chen Heng smiling, looking as peaceful as before without the slightest threat. He looked at Pru with a hint of apology on his face.

As Chen Heng spoke, Pru could not hold on any longer, and with a plop, he fell to the ground. Elena and the others immediately fell silent.

After a long while, Elena spoke again with a smile, "No, you came at the right time. The weather has been a little chilling. One of our friends seems to have caught a little cold. Take him to rest."

As she said this, the tavern owner at the side immediately understood and carried Pru's body to the other side of the house.

"A cold may be severe and cause a big problem if not treated promptly." Chen Heng nodded and said, "Coincidentally, I'm quite good at this aspect. So if there's anything you need, I can be of some help."

F*cking help.

Everyone present was a little speechless, seeing Chen Heng and Elena solemnly discussing the cold.

At the side, the young man coughed a few times and tried to change the topic, "Since everyone is here, should we discuss some serious matters?"

"That's right."

"That's indeed the case."

The people around nodded one after another as if they had just realized.

"We are all official members of the parliament here, except for you." Elena explained, "As for you, you are here on behalf of His Highness Alan. We are here to discuss the upcoming cooperation."
