Chapter 10: Leaving the Mountain Town

"Yes, I understand. In a couple of years, Xiao Fei might come back. When that happens, let him teach you those spells. Those spells are amazing; I want to learn them too, haha, but I am getting old now," Wang Lian said enviously.

The boy and his mother, who were secretly watching from the side, saw the woman take out a jade pendant from her arms and hand it to her son, instructing, "Son, you must take good care of this jade pendant and never let it fall into the hands of others." Saying this, she knocked her son unconscious and placed him in a hidden location before rushing out.

Is it far? When will father come back? I miss father very much

"Alright, let's go and take a look over there," the boy's mother said with a smile

Ah... Xiaocheng, where have you been these past five years? You know we have been extremely worried about you, we thought you...

"I am sorry, Aunt Wang, for making you worry," Yu Xincheng said again humbly. "I have been to a distant place these past few years, which is why I have only just returned." He could not possibly tell them that he had spent five years in a cave; would anyone believe such a story? He had no choice but to fabricate a lie.

Yes, what is it, Aunt Wang? Yu Xincheng asked curiously. He continued, "Aunt Wang, is Xiao Fei at home?"

"Xiao Cheng, you have not been here for some years, and now Fei Er is not at home," Wang Lian sighed and said

Well, that's fine, but you need to be careful out there. This place is not for you young people; the outside world is where it truly belongs. It's also good to go out and explore. Wang Lian sighed as she spoke, thinking that the young people nowadays are all out making their way in the world, while she and her peers should be retiring.

As Yu Xincheng returned home, the sky gradually darkened. He tidied up the clutter and dust in his house, taking his time just as he did in his childhood. In truth, with his current capabilities, there was no need for him to do this; he did it to reminisce about the little moments of his youth. By the time he finished cleaning, it was already deep into the night. He sat in his room, and before he knew it, he had fallen asleep.

Ah, what is going on, what has happened, why is Xiao Fei not at home, where has he gone, and what about Xiao Tian? Yu Xin Cheng was left with a series of questions

"Mother, let's go over there, it's so beautiful over there," a young boy said to a middle-aged woman, who was none other than his mother.

"Hehe, Mother is the best in the world. Mother, where is Father? I haven't seen him for such a long time," the young man asked.

He will be back soon. Let's go play over there. The woman did not want to continue on this topic, so she changed the subject.

Hmph, Yu Feng, if you are sensible, hand over the items. If you do so, I will spare you; otherwise, you will experience our Eight Gates Formation." said the leader among the eight.

There is no need for you to worry; they have gone to learn magic. A year after your disappearance, a group of magicians arrived in our village. At that time, Xiao Fei and Xiao Tian were very fond of them, so I allowed him to go. He returned a year ago and inquired if there was any news about you. We have never given up searching for you, but we have always been unable to find you. Wang Lian recounted slowly. A year ago, he returned and asked if there was any news about you. We have never given up searching for you, but we have always been unable to find you. Wang Lian recounted slowly.

"You are seeking death, arrange yourselves." After saying this, the eight individuals each took a position, forming an octagram.

"Then I will take my leave for now, and I will come to visit you again next time," Yu Xincheng said

Do not ... ... '' Yuxin was startled awake from a deep sleep by a nightmare, drenched in sweat, her body jolting as she nearly fell off the bed. '' Huh, thankfully it was just a dream. '' She took a deep breath.

I understand, thank you, Aunt Wang. I may also have to leave tomorrow, as I need to find my parents, Yu Xincheng said softly

Hmph, do you think I am afraid of you? Come on, at worst I will die, but if you want something, you won't get it.

"Your father, he has gone to a very distant place," the boy's mother said helplessly

I apologize for causing you concern. Could you please tell me if Xiao Fei is at home?

When the young man woke up and found himself in a pile of hay, he got up and remembered that his mother was still there watching others kill, so he headed in that direction. However, when he arrived at the scene, he was stunned by what he saw. "No..."

Soon, the mother and child arrived at the place they had just pointed out. However, although the scenery was beautiful, it did not last long. Suddenly, there were sounds of fighting not far away, and the mother and child quietly crept over to hide and watch. There were seven or eight people surrounding and beating one person.
