It was said that deep in the great lake of Crescent Mountain lived a monster that swallowed clouds and spat out fog.
Every time the monster emerged, it would swallow clouds and breathe out fog for quite a while.
Thus, Crescent Mountain was shrouded in thick fog all year round, regardless of the season, day or night, making it eerily gloomy.
As Chen Fan stepped into Crescent Moon Valley, his vision was immediately obstructed, making the mountains, stones, and trees ahead seem hazy.
After frowning, Chen Fan took out his mobile phone and sent Lin Xiao a message: “I am at Crescent Moon Valley. I just entered the entrance. Where are you?”
Lin Xiao quickly replied: “Look up to your right.”
When Chen Fan raised his head, he could barely see the mountain wall.
At some point on the mountain wall, a faint light flickered a few times.
At that flickering spot, there was a very blurry dark shadow.
The shadow, resembling a monkey, climbed down the mountain wall.
While investigating the Protecting Your Beast Nurturing Studio previously, Chen Fan had looked into Lin Xiao and Hong Quan’s backgrounds and recognized that the shadow was Lin Xiao.
Looking towards the entrance of Crescent Moon Valley, Lin Xiao whispered: “Chen Fan, please let me enter your Guardian Beast’s Shadow Canopy.”
Chen Fan didn’t move.
Lin Xiao lowered his voice even further: “There are people from Nightmare Hall on Crescent Mountain.”
Chen Fan lightly touched his chest, the Battle Armor flickered, and the defense was set to maximum.
His fingers also flickered on the ring, a more powerful armor attached to his Battle Armor.
After that, he unfastened his Long Knife, held it with his left hand, took a few steps forward, stepped out of the Shadow Canopy, and waved at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao looked pleased as he quickly took two steps forward.
Both entered Elder Ape’s Shadow Canopy simultaneously.
Lin Xiao nodded slightly to Chen Fan, motioning for him to follow, then hurried towards the depths of the gorge.
Chen Fan also remained silent, gripping the scabbard with one hand and the hilt tightly with the other, trailing silently behind Lin Xiao.
After turning left and right in the gorge for over ten minutes, Lin Xiao led Chen Fan through the dense forest to a cave entrance blocked by a massive stone and stopped.
The cave was hidden under the cliff and was quite secretive.
Large trees and bushes blocked the outside view, making it difficult for anyone passing by to notice the cave even if they were close to it.
Lin Xiao’s hands glowed as he grabbed the massive stone and moved it to the side.
Chen Fan had a thought and summoned Snowy and the others afterward, then communicated his intentions to Snowy and Gangzi.
Snowy immediately fixed his gaze on Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao glanced at the group of Guardian Beasts that appeared, didn’t say anything, just waved at Chen Fan, and walked into the cave.
Chen Fan followed expressionlessly.
Gangzi silently ran to the edge of the cave entrance, crouching in the crevice between the stones.
Little Qing and Snowy followed closely behind Chen Fan.
In no time, the two reached the depths of the cave.
In the depths of the cave-like hall, a few Moonlight stones were embedded, emitting faint light.
Under the illumination of the Moonlight stones, Chen Fan saw a girl who had fainted and was tied to a stone, with even her mouth bound by cloth.
Chen Fan:
He seemed to have seen the girl at Huanhai Academy before.
But he couldn’t remember her name now.
What was going on here?
Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, “She’s my sister, Lin Yuanyuan.”
Chen Fan:
There was a look of pain in Lin Xiao’s eyes as he said, “Chen Fan, can you let my sister and the people of the Lin Family go once this matter is over?”
“They know nothing about Nightmare Hall and have never been involved in any of its affairs.”
“All the sins rest solely on me.”
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes: “You said before that you saved the people of East Sea City. What’s the matter with that? And now you have your sister tied up here. What’s going on?”
Lin Xiao: “It’s a long story…”
Chen Fan interrupted him: “Then keep it brief!”
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment before stating, “Chen Fan, Nightmare Hall will act soon, either today or tomorrow.”
“They have used Demons to control the monsters in several Secret Realms and Restricted Areas.”
“This includes the Iron-Devouring Worms in one Restricted Area and the Centaurs in the 5th Secret Realm.”
Chen Fan was shocked: “What are they trying to do? Attack East Sea City?”
Lin Xiao nodded: “Just like the last time with the Heavenly Fire Ants’ siege, they want to destroy East Sea City.”
Chen Fan: “For what purpose?”
Lin Xiao: “To capture Chu Family’s Elder, Chu Tiannan!”
Chen Fan was stunned: “Such a huge commotion, all to catch Chu Xuan’s grandfather?”
Lin Xiao: “I don’t understand why they want to catch Chu Tiannan either. It seems to involve Chu Qingcheng’s affairs… and Chu Tiannan hasn’t left East Sea City for a whole fifteen years, forcing Nightmare Hall to resort to city-destroying methods.”
“Moreover, this time, it seems Nightmare Hall has sent two Eighth-Realm masters!”
“What!” Chen Fan was shocked.
What identity did Chu Xuan’s grandfather hold that made Nightmare Hall value him so much?
During the previous Ant Swarm incident, Nightmare Hall only sent a few Seventh Realm Grandmasters.
But now they were sending Eighth Realm masters too? What would happen to East Sea City which only had Seventh Realm Grand masters?
Chen Fan’s expression changed slightly as he recalled a conversation he had with Chu Xuan a few days ago.
That day, everyone was talking about the city protection array of East Sea City.
