When Maya met Maisie before, Maisie was like a girl-next-door, and favonovel.com was gentle and friendly. But now, Maya thought Maisie’s gaze was terrifying now, and it was as if Maisie interrogated her. Maya shivered, and favonovel.com quickly kept away the sadness favonovel.com felt. Then, Maya hurriedly answered, ” Elder Wesley sacrificed himself to save us, and Casper is in front of the Mirefield Gate, blocking the remaining monsters to buy us some time!”
After saying that, Maya took out Wesley’s storage sack. “This is the item that Elder Wesley wanted to deliver in Moonbright Town.”
“Casper’s in front of the Mirefield Gate? How long has favonovel.com been there?” Maisie’s eyes lit up. As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com waved at the people behind her.
Soon, a disciple walked over and took the storage bag from Maya.
“It’s been almost two hours,” Maya answered after counting the time.
When Maisie heard the news, favonovel.com heart sank once again. Nonetheless, it was better than not knowing anything.
“With the Mirefield Gate as the moat, Casper can hold on for the two hours. He might be even on his way over.” Maisie comforted herself. Then, favonovel.com glanced at the damaged carriage and the mortals in it. From the traces on the vehicle, Maisie already estimated how horrible the battle was before.
“Arrange two people to send Maya and the passengers to Moonbright Town. As for the rest of you, follow me toward the Mirefield Gate!” Maisie quickly ordered.
“Maisie! I want to join you!” Maya hurriedly shouted.
Maisie stopped in mid-tracks, but favonovel.com did not turn around. Then, favonovel.com answered, “Remember what Casper entrusted you with. Wait for my return. I might have a few things to ask you.”
After saying that, Maisie led the people, boarded the spirit boat, and immediately rushed toward the Mirefield Gate.
Maya stayed on the spot, and favonovel.com watched as the spirit spot disappeared into the horizon. Soon, sadness overwhelmed favonovel.com heart. Moreover, Maya naturally understood the meaning behind Maisie’s words. If Maisie returned and questioned her, it meant they did not find Casper, or they only found his corpse.
‘Casper, you promised me that you’ll come back in time. You mean what you said, right!’ Maya thought as favonovel.com stated in the direction of the Mirefield Gate.
The spirit boat was much faster than the carriage provided to the mortals, and it did not take long before everyone saw the towering Mirefield Gate. At the same time, Maisie also started receiving news about the journey.
“Elder Wesley’s signal for help was disrupted by the sudden blizzard, causing us only to get the news long after it was sent out. Moreover, the snowstorm was too bizarre, and the monsters should not even appear in the region. Hence, the matter is not as simple as it seems. There’s a possibility that other cultivators are involved in this, or there may be monsters in early-stage wisdom that are causing the trouble.”
“Along the way, there’s no corpse or traces left by monsters. This proves that no monsters passed through the Mirefield Gate up until our current location.”
“Based on Maya’s description, Casper parted with them before the Mirefield Gate to block the monsters from entering. If we speculate from that, Casper must‘ve relied on the Mirefield Gate’s strategic location and natural danger to successfully block the monsters until now. Of course, there’s also a possibility that the monster never had the intention to enter Mirefield Gate.”
Looking at the news gathered before her, Maisie’s eyes flashed with complicated lights. Yesterday, favonovel.com master was successfully promoted to a higher realm, and Maisie also benefited from the event, and favonovel.com realm also improved. At the moment, Maisie was a peak third-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, and favonovel.com was only a step away from the Holy Land Realm. If everything went well, that would happen within this year.
Initially, Maisie wanted to share the great news with Caspian, but favonovel.com received word that Caspian went out for a sect mission. Then, favonovel.com also found out that while favonovel.com trained in seclusion, Caspian achieved many outstanding results.
Not mentioning the others, the fact that Caspian could be ranked in the top ten of the spiritual apprentice list even though favonovel.com was in the sect for three months, and at the same time defeated the opponent who was also ranked in the top ten in the previous spiritual apprentice list was enough to make Maisie surprise. However, the good news did not last long. A day later, Maisie heard that Caspian and the others going for the mission encountered a big problem. Hence, Maisie did not hesitate and directly took the initiative to lead a bunch of disciples to assist.
“We’re here!” A disciple suddenly roared, interrupting Maisie’s thoughts. Maisie looked over and noticed that they were close to Mirefield Gate. Then, favonovel.com ordered, “Enter the passage and go through it!”
As favonovel.com said that, Maisie observed the area around the tunnel. She noticed that there were no traces left by monsters, and there were also no signs of people passing through. That could only mean that Caspian was still outside the Mirefield Gate.
At the thought of that, Maisie was disheartened.
Soon, the spirit boat arrived at the passage entrance, and a pungent smell of blood surged out from the tunnel. When everyone caught a whiff of the scent, they immediately frowned and looked at each other. It was as if it was not a passage leading toward the outside of the Mirefield Gate nor Darnley Valley, but a blood purgatory instead!
Nonetheless, they only hesitated for a while, and the spirit boat quickly flew through the passage. As they entered the tunnel, everyone on the spirit boat realized they were too naive before. The smell of blood in the tunnel was a hundred times stronger than it was outside!
Although everyone was on the spirit boat, the pervasive smell of blood in the surrounding air rushed into their lungs each time they breathed. For a while, these people even started to have the delusion that they soaked in a sea of blood. Those with the highest realm present and strongest disciples, such as Maisie, also appeared uncomfortable.
Then, a disciple suddenly shouted, “Goodness gracious! Look at that! The passage is blocked!”
Everyone turned over and realized that the corpses of the monsters piled up like a small hill in front of the spirit boat!
All of the corpses exploded in terrifying forms, and none of them still had complete bodies. Meat pulped, blood, shreds of internal organs were scattered everywhere. After a rough estimation, at least 20 corpses of monsters piled up in front of them.
There were more in front!
“Oh my god… What happened… Why are there so many dead monsters here…”
“This Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopard was killed with a blow to the head. The force is too unbelievable!”
“Look! Snow-Wolf Ape! Its chest was pierced through, and there were a few that died together, stacking up like meat skewers!”
“The Arctic Sky Deer was blasted away and smashed on the hill, and it directly left a bloody print!”
Exclamations came one after another. The utterly tragic sight in front of them nauseated a few disciples. Some of them even hurriedly supported themselves against the spirit boat’s banister and threw up.
However, Maisie’s eyes lit up as favonovel.com stood at the bow of the ship.
