As Aslan vanished before his eyes, Philip was dumbfounded. It happened so fast that favonovel.com could not stop Aslan.
Archie and the village chief, Mitch Corbyn, saw Aslan’s actions and realized something. Without any delay, they started running too.
Philip quickly followed Aslan’s cue. He wanted to try to pull the wool over their eyes, but Aslan ruined it.
“Everyone, catch those two guys!” Mitch yelled at the top of his lungs.
Everyone quickly got out of bed, and the green light in their eyes became even brighter. They quickly gathered at an open space and waited for Mitch to make arrangements. The three elders also gathered, not at all afraid that Philip and Aslan would run away.
Over the years, the people of Peach Blossom Village had explored every inch of this island thoroughly. They knew Philip and Aslan could never escape their clutches.
To leave Peach Blossom Village, they must become lizard people and get help from the three elders. The other option was to get the energy stone from the village.
The energy stone was located in the cave at the mountain in the back. It was very dangerous with various powerful formations contained inside. Anyone who entered that place would die for sure.
The three elders only managed to reach the edge of the cave. They received the heritage once they reached the edge and became very powerful. To get the energy stone, they had to enter the depths of the cave.
In the villagers’ opinion, two young men could never enter a place where the elders had failed, so they were not worried at all. As long as the two remained in the village, there was no way out.
“Those two ate our food but didn’t display any reaction!”
Mitch frowned and glanced at Second Elder Burton, who was an alchemist and might know something.
“I have no idea. Is it not working anymore?”
Even with more than a hundred lizard people in the village, it was difficult for them to produce offspring. It was a great feat to grow the population to more than a hundred.
“If it fails, what else can we do to transform other people from now on?” Archie was worried. They could not let their race go extinct.
Mitch frowned and said, “My bad premonition is getting stronger and stronger. It feels as if the space is about to merge. Do you reckon our space barrier is already so weak that someone can merge it by force?”
They were at a disadvantage, indeed.
Other races could reproduce easily, but they only had more than a hundred of them at this point. The difference was obvious. In the end, they decided to send out several search parties for Philip and Aslan until they tracked them down.
Meanwhile, Philip had arrived at the mountain in the back. He looked at the intricate cave door in puzzlement.
