Mo Qian swore.
He had been stuck in this cramped passage for a very, very long time.
The dazzling brightness of the early morning sun had given way to the blazing glare of noon. Now, afternoon was nearly upon him.
Even the sunlight was beginning to weaken.
As a result, the head at the opening above was no longer so heavily backlit.
Mo Qian could clearly see that it looked like a human head, yet its neck was almost as thick as its head and face.
Whatever was outside could not be human. It could only be a demon.
And there was more than one demon out there...
Moreover, these were neither Two-Legged Sheep nor Beauty Snakes.
They probably were not Blood Fireflies either?
After ruling out the other possibilities, Mo Qian concluded that the creatures outside had to be Mountain Fen.
Luo Bin had been bitten by a Mountain Fen. Although he had never described its appearance in detail, there were only so many kinds of demons, so the answer was easy enough to work out.
Actually, if they had been Two-Legged Sheep or Beauty Snakes, Mo Qian would have tried to charge out.
Against Mountain Fen, he had no confidence...
When Luo Bin had told him about those events, he had explained how troublesome Mountain Fen were. Even a blade could barely pierce their skin. In that respect, they were every bit as bad as evil spirits, if not worse.
When the sunlight began to turn yellow and the day grew late, Mo Qian gave up.
He slowly backed away, retreating into the Underground Room.
He took a deep breath and watched the passage exit warily, on guard against a demon suddenly squeezing inside.
Mountain Fen were too large to get in.
