You Yue and the party of three left Xuan Yuan Pavilion and quickly returned to the inn.

Along the way, the three did not say anything about the slip of paper. They talked for a while about the outskirts of the Dark Forest. After they returned to their rooms, Bei Gong Tang finally asked her what was on that note.

Sima You Yue gave the note to her. Sima You Qi and the rest also came over to see. When they saw the information, they were shocked.

“For real, how are we so lucky? Eight of the ten targets have appeared?” Fatty Qu exclaimed.

“Don’t you think it’s strange for those people to appear now?” Sima You Yue rebutted.

“What’s so strange about it?” Fatty Qu didn’t think much about it. “Since they are evil people, it’s possible they know each other. Since they’re know one another, it is normal for them to appear together! But this place it the nearest city to the Dark Forest. Do they want to go to the Dark Forest?”

“You may not be aware of the actual situation in the Dark Forest?”

“What’s the situation?”

Sima You Yue shared the news she got from Xuan Yuan Pavilion with them. “Now the situation has changed, we need to carefully decide whether to take this mission to the Dark Forest or not.”

“I didn’t expect such a big change to occur here.” Sima You Lin looked at the two maps, making comparisons.

“It certainly is. The safest place has become dangerous. Therefore, the dangerous place is even more dangerous. In the middle is a large empty area.” Sima You Ran said. “Although this area is empty, without going those in the front, we have no way of entering there. And because it is closest to other zones, surrounded by various zones. The safest place is actually the most dangerous place.”

“That’s right.”

“Why is it so? It feels that they are protecting the area in the middle.” Sima You Qi said.

“We don’t care about the area in the middle. The position of the flamingo hasn’t changed, but there are many spirit beasts surrounding them, making the zone more dangerous.” Sima You Yue said. “We want to enter this zone to steal their eggs. I’m afraid that before we even get close, we might be dealt with by those spirit beasts.”

“It’s too dangerous!”

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air and ask Sima You Yue, “Should we give up the mission?”

“You want to give up the mission?” Sima You Yue glanced at everyone.

“This mission was posted in the past. To go in now, it will be more difficult than before.” Wei Zi Qi said. “According to our strength now, not to mention if we can successfully attain the flamingo eggs, can we retreat unharmed? That’s not certain.”

“I think so too.” Fatty Qu echoed.

“You said that the eight great evils are here. Can it be related to the changes in the Dark Forest?” Ouyang Fei said.

Everyone was stunned at his words.

“It’s not impossible.” Sima You Lin said.

“During the time you were out, we heard from the waiters that recently Green City seem to be receiving a lot of outsiders.” Wei Zi Qi informed.

“This Green City is the closest place to the Dark Forest. There will always be a lot of people coming.” Bei Gong Tang said.

“No, since the Dark Forest changed more than two years ago, there have been fewer people coming to Green City. According to the waiter, recently, a lot of people came. As if after two years of silence, the city suddenly restored to its initial bustle.” Sima You Le added.

“Hmm…now that is really strange.” Sima You Yue said.

“What should we do next? The two missions we accepted both experienced a change.” Sima You Yue looked at everyone.

“Hmm…Initially, we knew that one or two of them were in the vicinity. However, we didn’t expect that eight of them to appear together. Moreover, I feel that since the eight of them appeared, the other two should also be here.” Sima You Yue rubbed her blood thumb ring as she pondered.

“We had planned to meet one kill one, meet two kill two, now with this many, do we still kill them? The ten great evils have a good relationship with one another.” Fatty Qu asked.

“We’ll go check them out.” Sima You Lin suggested. “I heard they each have their own ability, and when together, they are most powerful. Let’s try one or two of them out.”

“You mean, if we can deal with them, we will perform the second mission?” Sima You Ran asked.

“We’ll go try it out, if it’s too difficult, we can forfeit both missions. If we can deal with it, we won’t come back empty handed.” Sima You Lin revealed his thoughts.

“It’s not necessarily that we won’t attain the flamingo eggs.” Sima You Yue said.

“You want them to send them over?” Fatty Qu asked.

“But Little Roc is not here. We can’t have the flamingos give me their eggs.” Bei Gong Tang said.

“Aren’t we still early when we leave here?” Sima You Yue said. “It’s possible by them, Little Roc will be back. In addition, I’m more interested in this Dark Forest. Even if we do not to the zone of the flamingos, we can still take a look.”

“Right, even if we don’t go in deep, we can still take a look.” Wei Zi Qi affirmed.

“But recently the situation has become so perverse. Something must have happened. If we go in, will we be in danger?” Sima You Qi was worried.

“Then we’ll check the situation again.”

“Alright.”

As a result, they stayed at the inn and waited for news.

During this period, Sima You Yue went to Xuan Yuan Pavilion twice more. She attained a bountiful haul of news. Two of the most important was in regards of the Dark Forest’s situation and the ten great evils.

“Waiter, stayover. Twenty rooms upstairs” A group of people dressed in white came over and ordered the waiter.

The waiter glanced at the clothes they were wearing. His heart thumped and hurriedly went over. He respectfully greeted them.?“It’s Sage Pavilion’s Lords. I’m really sorry, the inn recently received many guests and don’t have many rooms left.”

The man in the front grew angry and shouted, “What? Not enough rooms? You know we are from the Sage Pavilion, yet you dare to say such audacious words?”

“It’s true, My Lord. We have more guests coming here recently.” The waiter trembled.

“You…”

“Senior Brother, forget it. Don’t pick fights, or Master will blame you.” A lady interrupted him.

“Hmph.” The man snorted at the waiter.

The lady smiled and asked the waiter, “How many rooms do have here?”

When Sima You Yue heard this voice, she could not help but raise her eyebrows.

This voice, it was familiar!
