Chapter 952: The truth within
Bi Sheng and Wu La Mai looked in the direction she pointed and saw things hanging on the fibrous roots, there were long and short, big and small items.
The land at the side was also filled with stuff like that.
“These are human bones!” Bi Sheng took a deep breath, he didn’t expect to see such a horrifying scene here.
“It is human bones.” Sima You Yue said, “It should be fed by the people from Blood Arena these past few years.”
“There are so many human bones here, I wonder if it’s the same for other places.” Bi Sheng frowned.
“We will go to another place to see later.” Sima You Yue said, “For now, we will take a look at the situation here.”
They winded around those bones and continued walking forward, they realised that the roots went upwards from here and branched out a lot of thin roots in front, the thin roots spiralled the main roots upwards, it interweaved and became a closely woven net, on top of the net was a halo, that made it looked like a flat surface.
“Little Seven, go, beat him till his head bleeds!” Shoutings came from on top.
Followed by ping pong fighting sound from the top.
Because it was closed to the Blood Arena on top, Sima You Yue and the rest didn’t talk, they exchanged glances and continued diving.
Until they came to the deep underground, they then took deep breaths, unlike just now how they were being careful.
“You guessed right, that wrestling ring was Blood Demon Tree’s.” Bi Sheng still couldn’t believe what he saw, if he didn’t witness it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t even believe it.
“The Blood Demon Tree’s roots extended here and metamorphosis a result like this, seems like its strength is powerful.” Sima You Yue said, “Did you guys smell a faint scent just now?”
“Yes.”
“I think the scent is the reason why those people went insane.” Bi Sheng guessed.
“It should be.” Sima You Yue said, “It’s impossible that the roots could metamorphose such a flawless wrestling ring. It should be the scent that made people hallucinate that after so many years, nobody found out that the wrestling ring was metamorphosed. This scent and blood mix will provoke people’s mental state and make people become crazier and lose their sanity which makes them only think of slaughtering. Let’s go to another place and see.”
They walked in the underground for a night, what they saw made them shocked.
“The Blood Demon Tree’s roots almost covered the whole underground of Blood Fiend city.” Bi Sheng said astonishingly, “Didn’t think that the Blood Demon Tree has so many roots system underground even though it doesn’t look tall.”
“Its strength went into the roots system, but if it’s too tall, it will attract attention. It’s impossible how it’s obscure and unknown after so many years in the City Lord’s residence.” Sima You Yue said.
“There’s a weapon there!” Wu La Mai reminded.
Sima You Yue and Bi Sheng looked over and saw a dark spirit weapon buried in the soil.
“This is…!” Bi Sheng over reacted, after he saw the spirit weapon, he paced over in a fast speed, he took the spirit weapon in his hands and looked in detail at the light that the spirit weapon shined.
Sima You Yue and Wu La Mai walked over and asked, “You know what is this?”
“This is a weapon of somebody I know.” Bi Sheng answered, “Then he went missing during one of the crimson moon. I didn’t expect his spirit weapon to be here.”
“There is a skeletal remains there.” Sima You Yue said while pointing somewhere not far from his back.
Bi Sheng turned around, the skeletal remains already had no flesh and blood left, only left with bones wrapped in worn out clothes.
“This is his clothes!” Bi Sheng said, “This is his skeletal remains!”
“Seems like he didn’t go missing because of the crimson moon, but he was killed by this Blood Demon Tree.” Sima You Yue said.
Bi Sheng saw how twisted the skeletal remains were and said, “Looks like those so-called missing in crimson moon’s people were all killed by the Blood Demon Tree. Crimson moon night, killing night!”
“Soon it will be crimson moon night, wouldn’t that be killing night.” Wu La Mai said.
“Yes, those things that Li Zhi just said, this time the crimson moon night will have more action.” Bi Sheng said.
“He also said, we can’t leave here.” Sima You Yue added on.
“Before we found out all these, those words seemed like nothing, but now that I think of it, something doesn’t seem right.” Bi Sheng said.
“We are almost covered here, if we go back now, we can discuss this with Shi Chen and the rest.” Sima You Yue suggested.
“Okay.”
They followed the direction and came to the position of the inn’s backyard to get out.
Shi Chen and the rest were with Mu Lian Xin and Wang Mo, they were talking about last night, suddenly, the soil at the side became muddy followed by three light balls coming out from inside.
“Boss? Why did you all come out from here? Feng Kai asked curiously.
“This, this…” Wang Mo looked at Sima You Yue, then looked at Thousand Resonance, they both looked exactly the same, with the same aura, he was stunned.
“Thousand Resonance, thank you for your hard work.” Sima You Yue nodded towards Thousand Resonance, his body flashed a silver light and transformed into his own appearance.
“This one is fake?” Hu Yang stared at Thousand Resonance, “How did you transform identically, even the aura is the same?”
“He is my contract beast.” Sima You Yue explained, “That’s why we can have the same aura.”
“Yue Yue, did you find out about anything?” Little Seven asked.
“Yes. And it’s very important.”
Sima You Yue and Bi Sheng explained the situation that they had searched so far, everyone was shocked.
“You are saying, this crimson moon is Blood Demon Tree’s cover up for eating humans every month?” Wang Mo’s words were little, but he spotted on in a sentence.
“Yes.” Bi Sheng took out the skeletal remains and his weapon. “You guys should remember him.”
“It’s Old Bai!” Hu Yang immediately recognised, “This is his spirit weapon, these clothes were the ones he was wearing the day before he went missing!”
“Big Beard, are you sure?” Wang Mo compressed his lips as he asked.
“How would I be unsure?! The day before he went missing, I was just drinking with him!” Hu Yang exclaimed, “That day he said he was going back, I told him we weren’t done and we should continue drinking. He said tonight is crimson moon and that he should go back early. I haven’t seen him since!”
“Some people will go missing during crimson moon.” Wang Mo’s face wasn’t looking good, “But after so many years, we always thought it was because of the crimson moon, we always thought it’s a mysterious phenomenon that we shouldn’t touch on.”
“Shit! Tonight is the crimson moon!” Hu Yang suddenly shouted!
“Are we proceeding with the next massacre tonight?” Mu Lian Xin asked.
“I wonder who would be there tonight.” Hu Yang sighed.
“I think it won’t be easy to get through tonight. And it won’t be as easy as last time.” Sima You Yue remarked.
“Why?”
“Wang Mo, get those few people outside to go to the city gate, see if we can get out of the city.” Sima You Yue told Wang Mo.
Wang Mo nodded and headed out, he quickly came back and said, “I asked them to split up and go to different city gates, now we will just wait for their news.”
Very quickly, those people came back with the news.
“We can’t get out anymore! No matter how many top graded crystals we put, the city gate would not open!”
“A spirit barrier is set up over the city wall, we can’t fly out at all!”
Those people in the courtyard heard the news and their faces looked down.
