A group of people followed closely behind Wang Chen as they returned to Wuyan Town.
No one wanted to leave the group. Once they realized Wang Chen was not the kind of person who could be reasoned with without principle, those who had raised objections earlier tucked their heads in.
And when Zhang Dahu and the others saw their familiar little town once again, every one of them changed expression.
When they had left earlier, the fog shrouding the town had already dispersed.
But now, the entire town was surrounded by a gray haze, with only the outlines of some buildings barely visible.
The gray fog blanketing the town seemed alive, surging soundlessly and shifting into different forms, like a clawing, fang-baring Evil Beast about to begin a slaughter.
A yin, evil aura rushed straight at them!
At the sight of this, everyone stopped in unspoken accord, their faces filled with terror.
All eyes turned toward Wang Chen.
"Stay here."
Wang Chen said in a deep voice, "Protect yourselves."
Before his words had even faded, he suddenly shot up in a Sword Light and vanished from everyone's sight in an instant.
Zhang Dahu and the others looked at one another, silently praying that Wang Chen would rescue the people safely.
Without this lifeline, they would have no future at all!
By then, Wang Chen was already inside the town.
The evil aura around him had become extremely dense and was trying to penetrate his Protection spiritual light and seep into his body.
Visibility was also very poor; he could not see anything beyond ten paces.
Wang Chen did not charge around blindly. He raised his right hand, pressed his index and middle fingers together into a Sword Finger, and swept them before his eyes.
