Chapter 554: Man in black cloak
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
If Yan Xiao Yi was late by just that few minutes, the teahouse owner would probably have breathed his last.
Ye Qing Luo took some medicinal pills from the Profound Phoenix Ring to feed the teahouse owner and also helped him do some simple bandaging.
On seeing the teahouse owner’s painful look slowly subsiding, she only started to ask when his complexion gained some colour, “What happened?”
Teahouse owner’s hand which was full of blood tightly grabbed Ye Qing Luo’s arm, “I don’t know… these bird beasts suddenly swooped down devouring everyone in the marketplace…..”
That scene was extremely cruel and bloody.
Teahouse owner was in the kitchen getting some wood when he saw this scenario.
These bird beasts had suddenly descended from the sky, like an arrow which was left it’s bow.
Their sharp claws grabbed hold of a man’s shoulder and immediately tore him into half.
The building collapsed and he was hiding in the straw watching the surroundings with a clear view.
The more he thought, the more violently his body shook as his face was filled with terror and fright.
“Other than you, are there any other survivors?” Ye Qing Luo surveyed the surroundings. The ground had already been stained red and totally unable to distinguish if the blood stains were from those stall owners or from those bird beasts.
After searching for so long, Yan Xiao Yi was only able to find the teahouse owner.
These bird beasts were so vicious.
“No more… they’re all gone…..”
The teahouse owner’s voice couldn’t help but start trembling, “These bunch of bird beasts were extremely vicious and too sudden, so sudden that we had no time to react…. And they, they were already…..”
All gone…..
Ye Qing Luo squinted her eyes as her vision suddenly congealed towards the old painter who sat across the teahouse.
He said he wanted to use his own brush to draw all the beautiful things.
But….
Did he know those whom he had called beautiful…had caused the entire marketplace…..
If it wasn’t for that day, that they had stopped here, the people in the marketplace would not be eyed on by the dark forces.
Hatred stemmed from the bottom of her heart as it started burning up.
She clenched her fists tightly as her eyes gave out a gloomy epidemic pathogenic factor.
Dark forces…..
She absolutely would not let them off!
“Other than these bird beasts, have you seen any other suspicious characters?” Ye Qing Luo had always felt that these bird beasts couldn’t have come forward on their own.
If someone were instigating them behind the scene.
No matter how they held their own consciousness, it was impossible for them to understand…. Psychological warfare.
Furthermore, beasts species towards the sense of danger were extremely intense.
Even after knowing that they weren’t their match, they still continued to surge forward in batches.
Either these bird beasts’ pride didn’t allow them to retreat.
Or they must kill all those living people in the marketplace before they left, otherwise they would suffer a much more serious consequence later on.
Ye Qing Luo was inclined more to the latter.
“N, No…..” Teahouse owner’s voice suddenly took a halt as he suddenly recalled something, “Right…. There seemed to be, seemed to be someone who was standing among the bird beasts, dressed in a black clock. He… he left the marketplace safely and the bird beasts didn’t attack him…..”
At that time he was hiding in the haystack and hadn’t seen it clearly.
He only felt that the black cloaked man was very bold, daring to walk among those vicious bird beasts.
It was until the black cloaked man left when he realised in shock that something was amiss.
Black cloaked man?
Ye Qing Luo’s expression congealed as she gave Yan Xiao Yi a glance.
Indeed, it was the dark forces!
Their guesses were absolutely correct!
Ye Qing Luo suddenly stood up as her gaze brushed sharply across the entire marketplace.
In the sky, the bird beasts were still hovering as they cried out ear piercing screeches, continuously summoning their own species.
This stance obviously looked as though they were resolute in engaging in a long battle with Ye Qing Luo and the rest!
Ye Qing Luo was even more certain…..
That the black cloaked man was still nearby.
