Chapter 167 A Mysterious Woman

Zhang Yunyan was a little surprised. How could the sika deer suddenly disappear? Where did it go?

A horrible thought came out. Monster, it was a monster!

Yunyan had a sense of foreboding. The Demon deer that she had encountered in the past flashed in her mind. Was this deer really that monster?

She looked around but did not see the sika deer. She was very nervous and afraid. If it was really the demon deer, she would be dead tonight.

Zhang Yunyan was very surprised and confused. The sika deer was clearly around without the sound of leaving. How could it suddenly disappear? Was it really a monster? Was it the demon deer that hurt her with the demon monkey?

Yunyan looked at Black Tiger which was also looking around, as if it was as ignorant as her.

Black Tiger was so smart and its ability to perceive was so powerful, but it was unaware of the whereabouts of the sika deer and its disappearance. How extraordinary and terrible this deer was!

Zhang Yunyan couldn’t help but doubt that the disappearance of the sika deer couldn’t be that fast, and they wouldn’t be unaware. Especially in front of Black Tiger, it was not easy to hide.

To say the least, even if the sika deer left suddenly as if it flew away, they would feel the disturbed breeze, and it would never disappear without a trace silently.

However, this was strange. The sika deer mysteriously disappeared, which was too puzzling. Was it really a monster?

Zhang Yunyan was alert. She just had thought that this sika deer was different but she did not care, and she did not want to think about it to the worst. Now, she thought of those strange features, only to realize that it was so strange that she could not remain calm and unafraid.

The sika deer’s shining fur, the strange spots, and its ability to understand people’s words, etc. All of these showed that it was not an ordinary sika deer. Instead, it must be an extraordinary elf.

This reminded her of Samuume who also had these characteristics, and she was a beautiful elf. Thus, the sika deer was probably also an elf.

The more Zhang Yunyan thought, the more she was shocked and afraid. If the deer was really a monster and if it was really the demon deer that once had hurt her, it would be a big disaster.

The encounter tonight was terrible, strange and unpredictable. Whether it was the sudden bang and mysterious sika deer, or the evil wolf and the keen Black Tiger... All of these made her nervous and suspicious.

This was Qinglong Mountain where the Devil’s Cave was. Zhang Yunyan thought of Jiuyou Sage and the devils. Her fear for them still lingered, and she was fearful that those devils would appear again.

Now, she was vulnerable and could no longer withstand the stimuli of this strange thing. She was very nervous, and her heart was in her mouth again. Even the mere rustle of leaves in the wind would make her shocked.

The sika deer with such strange appearance disappeared mysteriously, which was very weird. Yunyan couldn’t help but be nervous and afraid.

She was puzzled and thought: “If the sika deer had such a magical ability, how dared the wolf to be so arrogant? Then the deer would not be chased by it and nearly die. It could kill the evil beast with a little effort. How could it get into such a mess?”

Was that wolf a monster, too?

Zhang Yunyan did not believe that the wolf was an elf, otherwise it would not fear her and Black Tiger, and would never run away easily.

If it was an ordinary wolf, why would the sika deer be chased so badly? If the sika deer was the demon deer that once hurt her, it would have already killed the evil wolf. Why was it so fearful?

This was hard to understand. What was the sika deer? Was it just an ordinary deer but with a special appearance?

Zhang Yunyan was very nervous and still suspicious. Perhaps that was an ordinary sika deer with special appearance, and it was not surprising.

She thought if it was an elf, it would not be afraid in face of a lion or a tiger, and it would not be chased to the corner, not to mention a wolf.

Yunyan couldn’t believe that the sika deer was a terrible monster, and she didn’t want to believe it. She was afraid of monsters and devils, but the gentle, lovely and friendly behavior of the sika deer made her unwilling to think it was a monster.

Zhang Yunyan explained to herself. Emotionally, she hoped that it was an ordinary sika deer but with strange looks.

She was still looking around and thinking. The doubts still lingered in her heart. She had mixed feelings of both regret of loss and worries as well as a sense of mystery.

Black Tiger was also looking around. It was a little restless and seemed very vigilant.

Zhang Yunyan looked at Black Tiger, feeling even more uneasy and afraid in her heart. She remembered that as she spoke, the deer’s look and behavior seemingly showed that it understood those words.

Her heart trembled. If the deer could understand human language, it would be a big deal. It would not be an ordinary sika deer but an elf who couldn’t speak human language yet due to its shallow cultivation.

In the night sky, the dark earth was silent with no chirps of insect and no moving shadow, making people nervous and restless.

Suddenly, a voice came from the air, “Zhang Yunyan, it is not easy for you and me to meet here. I am here tonight because someone asked me. Now that things have been done, I should go. Take care of yourself!”

Zhang Yunyan was stunned. She looked at the night sky and there was no figure in the moonlight.

She was more afraid. How could someone talk in the dark night sky? The voice sounded like a woman. Who was she?

This speaker was invisible, mysterious and strange. What was even more frightening was that the woman called her by the name, the real name. It seemed that she had already known Zhang Yunyan.

Yunyan had a sense of foreboding. Was this guy a monster?

Probably. Otherwise, in the dark night sky, how could there be someone who was invisible and still knew her?

Yunyan sighed to herself. What was wrong with this? Why did she encounter monsters endlessly? Why did she have bad luck again and again? Was there no escape from fate?

Zhang Yunyan remembered that she encountered with the demon deer and the demon monkey and was chased by them. Then she was confined in the cave. The fears still lingered in her heart, and she was also more skeptical. In that cave, she heard the so-called “Millennium Message”. Outside the cave, she heard the words of an old woman.

Thinking of this, Yunyan’s heart was trembling, and she was more nervous. Would the old woman be the speaker?

The old woman of the past in the air was also invisible. Her voice sounded like this woman. Were they really the same person?

What a bad luck. It was unexpected that the demons and monsters had already targeted at her, and followed her here. It seemed that they wanted to put her to death.

It was useless to be afraid. Zhang Yunyan knew that the guy was looking at her in the night sky. She couldn’t escape, nor was she able to escape.

She gnashed her teeth and asked, “Who are you? How do you know me? Can you come out?”

There was no sound in the night sky, and no one or a monster appeared. It seemed that the woman had already left.

Zhang Yunyan looked at the night sky, hoping that the guy was not a monster. But there was nothing else that could explain it. The guy was invisible and could stay in the air. If she was not a monster, what could she be?

She was very nervous, and would not give up asking. She hoped to see the mysterious and terrifying woman so that she wouldn’t be dead without knowing who the murderer was.

In the silence, there was a voice in the air again, “Zhang Yunyan, I also want to come out and talk to you about it. But it’s a pity that the secret can’t be revealed.”

That’s it again!

In the past, the person of the Millennium Covenant and the old woman who was invisible both concealed their identities by telling her “the secrets couldn’t be revealed”.

Zhang Yunyan was more convinced that her guess was right. This woman was the old woman she encountered in the past. She didn’t dare to show up at that time, and was still afraid to expose herself now.

Despite the nervousness and fear, Yunyan did not give up, and she still kept asking, “Not long ago, I was locked into a closed cave. When I came out, I heard that there was an invisible person talking in the air. That was you, right?”

With a slight pause, the voice in the air started again, “That was not me. I only saw you today.”

“I don’t believe you. Since you don’t want to show up, could you tell me your name?”

After a short silence, there was a voice in the air again, “Yunyan, I also want to tell you who I am, but I can’t do it. This is a secret. I can’t disclose it for the time being, please stop asking.”

“Humph, you come for me, but avoid meeting me. Because you are ashamed of what you have done, you dare not to show up and tell me the secret, right?”

There was no echo in the air. It’s quiet. She didn’t know whether the woman was still here.

Zhang Yunyan was still asking, but there was no response. It seemed that the woman didn’t want to talk more and had left.

She shook her head, frightened and nervous. Although there was no danger tonight, there were many weird things, all of which were shocking. She had a hunch that something would happen tonight, otherwise there would not be so many weird things.

Zhang Yunyan wanted to go back as soon as possible, in case of further accidents. She immediately urged Black Tiger to go down the mountain.

Suddenly, there was a voice in the night sky again, “Yunyan, it is indeed inappropriate for me to show up, but it is unreasonable to refuse your request. It is really embarrassing. If you really want to see me, I’m not going to say no. I’ll see you here. I have natural affinity with you. Though it’s somewhat inappropriate, this is not excessive. It is excusable to see you.”

As soon as she stopped talking, there was a woman in the air. She was an old woman and could be seen clearly under the dark night sky in the bright flash.

The old woman with all grey hair was ruddy, and she looked very young. It seemed that she was a master with white hair and a ruddy complexion.

Zhang Yunyan was shocked and asked uneasily, “Are you a monster or an immortal? How do you know me?”

The old woman smiled, “I have cultivated to immortality, and I’m half an immortal. As for you, I know you because someone told me.”

Zhang Yunyan asked again, “Who told you? Why did that person tell you? Could you tell me the name?”

The old woman was a little embarrassed and said hesitantly, “Yunyan, it has been very inappropriate for me to appear here. I can’t say more. The secret can’t be revealed. Otherwise, it will bring a lot of problems, and even make trouble.”

Again! The secret couldn’t be revealed. Zhang Yunyan was a little dissatisfied. There were not so many secrets, just prevarication.
