Chapter 807: Dark Forest 7

Every necessity was present—fuel, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea—along with a full set of pots, bowls, ladles, basins, tables, chairs, and stools… For a moment, it gave him a sense of dazed disbelief.

In this peril-filled Dark Forest, to be so carefree and leisurely as if on vacation—it could surely only be the person before him.

Zi Yu silently took the bowl and downed it in one go.

After drinking a bowl, it felt as though his entire stomach had become comfortable.

As the saying goes, one's mouth is soft after eating another's food. Zi Yu had originally intended to impartially demand Su Luo keep watch, but the words changed as they reached his lips: "You take the first half of the night."

Clearly, the unspoken words were that he would take the second half.

As everyone knows, the first half of the night is the easiest shift.

During the second half of the night, because of the powerhouse pressure emanating from Zi Yu's body, all Demonic Beasts automatically kept a respectful distance.

Su Luo's first night in the Dark Forest passed peacefully.

Early the next morning, Su Luo got up early to continue her journey.

However, what frustrated her was…

Not long into the journey, before she had even seen a Demonic Beast, she encountered two more corpses lying by the roadside.

These two corpses were just like the previous one.

They were also black-clad assassins, dressed entirely in black with black face cloths, shrouded in darkness.

Compared to the previous one, these two had died in a much more gruesome manner.

One had been sliced in half at the waist, with the upper and lower body separated by five meters.

The other had its head separated from its neck, similarly decapitated.

Blood was splattered across the ground, and the metallic scent was thick.

At this moment, Demonic Beasts from the surrounding area were constantly arriving, drawn by the scent of blood.

Su Luo frowned slightly.

This place was about to become a purgatory where Demonic Beasts fought over food; it was better for her to avoid it.

Just as she was about to leave, she noticed a small deerskin boot peeking out from behind a rock.

A woman?

Su Luo's heart stirred, and she walked over cautiously.

At this moment, appearing before her was a beautiful young girl dressed in a Goose Yellow plain skirt.

However, her face was currently as pale as paper, and beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead.

Su Luo followed her gaze downward and found that her Goose Yellow skirt was stained with blood, with almost no spot left clean, as if she had crawled out of a hellish Shura Field.

Su Luo performed a brief examination, her fine brows furrowing slightly.

Because she actually discovered thirteen sword wounds of varying sizes on this girl's body.

Clearly, the deaths of the two Men in Black earlier were thanks to her.

And the injuries on her body were also caused by those Men in Black.

Su Luo was not someone who liked to meddle in others' business, because she knew that meddling meant trouble.

However, a single sentence from Zi Yu made her stop in her tracks.

"Save her."

Zi Yu's voice remained cold and indifferent, without a single ripple of emotion.

"Does Senior Brother want to play the hero saving the beauty and create a romantic tale?" Su Luo looked at him with a grin.

The surrounding Demonic Beasts were already closing in. If she rushed out holding a bloody piece of "fresh food," she would definitely become the target of attack.

That couldn't be Senior Brother's goal, could it? Su Luo sized Zi Yu up suspiciously.

Zi Yu's eyes remained as calm as still water as he simply said a few words: "She is from Purgatory City."

To Su Luo, Purgatory City was a mysterious and unpredictable place.

She knew a few people from the One City, Two Halls, Three Palaces, and Four Holy Lands, but everyone was extremely secretive and avoided talking about Purgatory City.

Su Luo even found that the three words 'Purgatory City' could stop a child's nighttime crying.

Therefore, Su Luo was curious about Purgatory City, but she had never had the chance to peel back its mysterious veil.

Did the girl before her really come from Purgatory City?
