Chapter 76: Youth
The end of the fog?
Audrey frowned slightly.
What was at the end of the fog?
She looked up again and was horrified to find that her surroundings had changed again.
The flowers were still falling one after another, but the fog had suddenly disappeared.
A quiet path appeared in front of Audrey. She was standing in front of the bamboo forest.
The fragrance of the gra.s.s quickly invaded Audrey’s sense of smell at an irresistible speed.
The dense bamboo blotted out the sky and the sun. If one listened carefully, it sounded as if there were wild beasts roaring in the bamboo forest. The path wound all the way to the end of the bamboo forest, and one could vaguely see a cave in the distance.
This does not give one the right to choose, right?
She deliberately dispersed the fog to reveal her true appearance, seeing that she did not even dare to enter.
Audrey constantly grumbled in her heart, but she had no choice but to be on high alert.
She picked up a petal, and sure enough, the words on it changed as well —
“Save me.”
“I’m in a cave at the end of the bamboo forest. Save me.”
… She did not want to go in.
Audrey sighed and entered the forest.
However, she did not realize that a man had suddenly followed behind her.
The young man tilted his head and looked at Audrey’s vigilant back with a smile. “She makes me want to scare her.”
Shadowless Ghost Hand stood beside the young man and said respectfully, “Master, you can do whatever you want.”
No matter what the young man said, Shadowless Ghost Hand only had one answer, and that was support.
The young man pursed his lips, feeling that it was meaningless.
“When did this miss from the Davis family test out that her blood could enable her to enter this place?”
Shadowless Ghost Hand thought for a moment. “That should be before the compet.i.tion. The Davis family seemed to have done the test when Audrey Davis was young, but there didn’t seem to be any results at that time.”
“There wasn’t any result?” The youth instantly became interested again. “There wasn’t any result before, but now there’s a result instead. Those old fellows of the Davis family didn’t notice anything wrong?”
Shadowless Ghost Hand recalled the performance of the Great Elder, Pierre. “It doesn’t seem to be. Perhaps the time of the test was when Audrey Davis was born, so it wasn’t allowed…?”
He could not be sure about this matter.
The young man himself definitely did not believe it.
He smiled and swaggered behind Audrey with his hands behind his back. “Then, let’s see what’s so special about miss Audrey.”
Audrey herself knew nothing.
She carefully and diligently observed the situation around her, but she found that there were no other dangers other than monkeys throwing a few bananas at her.
She casually picked up a banana from the ground, peeled its skin, and stuffed it into her mouth.
The monkeys angrily squeaked and ran away.
Audrey rolled her eyes. It was a waste not to eat it.
She had not eaten a single meal since the beginning. She was so hungry that her chest was hurting.
After eating the banana, she held the banana skin in her hand and became bored.
Could it be that the cave was really left by that old patriarch of Davis clan?
But was this not too outrageous?
If this domain was not challenging at all, why did the members of the Davis clan not get that secret manual after such a long time?
All the secrets were hidden in that cave.
The sound of twigs breaking startled Audrey’s thoughts. She raised her sword, turned around, and shouted, “Who is it?”
A young man in a thin robe appeared in front of Audrey with an apologetic smile.
He was abnormally handsome. He had bright eyebrows and sharp eyes. His eyes were as cool as water, and his body looked even thinner in the green robe.
Audrey asked warily, “Who are you? Why are you here?”
It was not an exaggeration to say that this was a forbidden area of the Davis family. This person did not seem to have high combat strength. How did he appear here?
“Sister.”
When he called her that, he looked even more pitiful.
Audrey could not find an adjective to describe the young man’s current appearance. In any case, she felt that he was a little charming.
He clearly did not look like a beauty in the common sense, but his voice was deep and hoa.r.s.e.
“Sister, I sent you a distress message. Did you not see it?”
