Chapter 497: Yellow Sands Ancient City (2/2)
On the third page, that child made a wish, he hoped to have his own flying sword someday.
From this point, he could see that the parents of this child might be cultivators, or even the entire population of this Yellow Sands Ancient City might be cultivators or disciples of some sects.
Ye Chuan continued to turn the pages. Only trivial matters were recorded in this diary. In normal times, these matters were irrelevant. No one would pay attention to the world of a child. But this time, even these trivial matters written by a child made Ye Chuan be able to figure out what kind of world this very ancient city was.
Soon, the pages of the diary were almost over, but in the final few pages of this diary, Ye Chuan saw strange words.
On the third last page, the child wrote, today, father and mother are quarreling, the uncle and aunt next door are also quarreling, the parents of Little Ling are also quarreling, what happened to them?
On the second last page, the child wrote, today, adults didn’t quarrel, they are all calm but don’t talk. Everyone seemed to have lost their soul like the book says. Tomorrow is the day to worship Sand God, but this year, there is still no movement.
On the final page, there were several twisted words, Sand God is angry, quickly……
It was empty behind the word ‘quickly’. Perhaps, the child suddenly encountered a mishap and didn’t have time to write quickly run.
Quickly run, or something else.
Ye Chuan was confused, and after turning over the final page, the entire diary crumbled into pieces. At that time, a gust of wind blew over and Ye Chuan felt chill. Looking up, he saw sandstorm outside and the sky was covered with dust and sand.
And then, looking all around, Ye Chuan walked out of this medicinal shop and walked alone on this empty street.
Now, there were still many doubts in the heart of Ye Chuan, but he could vaguely feel that the current appearance of Yellow Sands Ancient City was very likely related to one person, that Sand God mentioned in the diary of the child. Perhaps, that was a heaven-defying expert that dominated this desert, or, was a cold-blooded peerless evil spirit, because some matter had enraged him and destroyed this city.
At this moment, the wind was getting bigger and bigger, the dust and sand covered the entire sky, making this ancient city pitch-black.
But, Ye Chuan continued to advance forward, looking for any doubtful points to see whether there were any signs left behind by Zhu Sijia, Hui Kui and others. The result, even after walking for an hour, when he reached the west side from the east side, he gained nothing. Inside this huge and magnificent city, it seemed that he was the only living person. And the entire world was very quiet with only the sounds of sandstorm wreaking havoc.
At that time, a thin and small shadow suddenly appeared and quietly approached Ye Chuan under the cover of this sandstorm.
But, Ye Chuan who was walking alone along the empty street suddenly turned around and saw that that shadow was retreating. In an instant, that shadow retreated more than 100 meters. It seemed that that shadow didn’t expect Ye Chuan sense him so quickly and in this unexpected situation, the shadow wanted to run away.
“Stop for me!”
The eyes of Ye Chuan shone as he chased after this shadow in the midst of sandstorm. He circulated all Heaven Swallowing Talismans within his body and his speed became faster and faster. Although he was unable to clearly see what that shadow was, whether the other party was a ghost or a demon, it was the only living being he encountered after stepping into this ancient city. It might very probably be the only key to solve all the mysteries of this ancient city.
