Chapter 2536 Under the night sky
The two of them were drinking wine and talking about interesting things while looking at the stars glowing dimly in the night sky while the night pearl lighted the pavilion. The crescent moon loomed behind the clouds as the night became darker, sprinkling the moonlight weakly.
The beautiful scenery and beauty under the moon should have made for a very pleasant and joyful experience. However, when a panicked cry for help was faintly heard in their ears, the two people who were talking and laughing stopped speaking and put the wine cup in their hands down. They all turned their gazes in unison toward the dark mountain.
Few people went up the mountain to watch the sunset, and most of those who did wouldn’t stay on the mountain after sunset. In the mountain, only a faint light loomed, as if someone held a lamp in his hand. And the cry for help came from the faint light on the mountain.
“How can a cry for help be heard in this place at night? It appears to be a female.” Feng Jiu remarked, her eyes drifted towards the part of the mountain where the call for help came.“Just send Cloud Devouring Beast to investigate.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said as he drew his eyes away indifferently. “Mmm.”
Feng Jiu nodded and called out, “Cloud Devouring Beast.” Cloud Devouring Beast jumped out of the space. Its gaze swept over the two of them before settling on Feng Jiu. “Master.”
“Cloud Devouring Beast, someone is seeking help halfway up the mountain. Go and see what’s going on there.” “She gave him a command.
“Yes.”
Cloud Devouring Beast replied. Its powerful figure swept out like lightning, and all that could be heard was a sweeping of the wind as it moved away and vanished into the darkness.
The night wind carried not only a hint of coolness but also an almost desperate cry for help halfway up the mountain. She listened to the voice while holding her cheek in one hand. “There aren’t many people in this remote location.” She stated. “It’s desolate, particularly after dark. If one is in danger, it is possible that no one will come to one’s aid. I’m not sure how someone could travel to such a remote location without knowing how to defend herself.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze chuckled as he heard this. “She may be accompanied by a man, but not every man has my strength, and not every woman is like you.”Feng Jiu smirked, “That’s also true.”
While the two were still talking, they noticed that the crying had not stopped. “Cloud Devouring Beast should have arrived at this distance; why is the woman still crying for help?”
“Perhaps Cloud Devouring Beast couldn’t save her. “Xuanyuan Mo Ze pursed his lips. After a glance, the corner of his lips curved up. “It’s returned.”
Feng Jiu turned to see Cloud Devouring Beast rushing out of the dense forest and approaching her. “Why are you back? Have you not found the person who called for help?” she inquired, Cloud Devouring Beast was taken aback for a moment before responding. “Master, I found the person, but didn’t you ask me to investigate? So I went to see what happened and came back to tell you.”
Feng Jiu was astonished for a moment as if she hadn’t expected Cloud Devouring Beast to get it wrong. After a while, she looked at it strangely and inquired, “What did you notice? What exactly is the situation?”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze, who was sitting next to her, smiled slightly. He paid no attention to Feng Jiu or the beast and instead poured the wine.
Cloud Devouring Beast responded after some thought, “Several loose cultivators knocked a man unconscious and tied him to a tree. They’re chasing the woman travelling with the man and looking for her clothes.”
