2 Black Fog Forest

It has been three days. She has been roaming around the entire forest yet no signs of life. The awefull smell of decaying flesh was surrounding the entire forest. No one could tell whether is was time is it in the day since the black fog was covering the entire forest. Only the long nights was clearly visible.

This body on hers was petite and young. Contrary to her adult self on the earth. Her skin was soft yet covered in dirt and her small face is thin. It been days since she hasn't eaten anything and her hunger was eating her energy.

Just her luck was rotten, she saw a lurking black wolf staring directly at her. Its fangs were open wide and a suspicious liquid flowing out into its mouth. It was gaping at her like it was looking at its dinner. A sense of discomfort and terror run to her spine. She didn't need to think but running was the best course of action. It's just that the beast was fast and pounces on her. She stumble on her ground. The beast caught her leg.

What a damn luck!

The beast started to gnawed at leg tearing a flesh wound. She felt a hot liquid trickled down. Blood spilling all over. She felt dizzy looking at the loss of blood. It's as if, her life was going to end again this time.

But her eyes flash a certain memories and in instant she froze. Clenching her fist simply, she doesn't want to die yet. That was the will of this previous order. No, not yet! She needs to live and sort out this passed memories to her.

Opening her eyes and looking at her surroundings. She spotted a twig with a sharp edge. This time she will not sit back. A certain price need to aid off! Holding the twig firmly, she forcefully thrust the sharp edge on the soft neck of the beast. It went straight from the front to the end.

Having her chance at the moment when it was on its weakest state. She made a run. It wasn't literally running but half crawling on the ground.

Her current state was disheveled while dragging on a pair of bloody leg. How did she reduce to this? How come no one wants her? She never did bad things. She always do her best just to satisfy him? Why did he betray her? And her friends? No one from the start was on her side?

Why was it?

Even in this world she has suffered.

She remembered this body's memories. She also has a fiancée. They were together in their younger years. But then the sudden appearance of a woman crumble their relationship. The woman was popular and held high status in society.

Women in this era has a low standing in society. Unless bore a child with a strong spiritual influence then will her status rise. Women are naturally born with low spiritual energy. Only handful are born with. While men are basking with their enormous power and wealth.

Spiritual influence in this world will consider you standing in society. Those with none are destine to be trampled and hated.

This child's body is a waste. Although both of her parents where a cultivators yet she didn't inherit one. But due to her parent's prestige, she was bestow to married the rich son of the city mayor. To cut the story short, a third party occur and she was thrown eventually. Much worse her presence was deem as a hindrance therefore she was thrown to the black forest. She didn't know who was behind this but she needed to know.

Feng Long Wan clutch her painful leg. The pain was unbearable enough for her not to think of those previous memories.

Feng long Wan has been going around in circles when she found out an empty cave. As soon as she approach it she heard drifting voices from inside. Soon a clear and nonchalant voice echoed. She perk hear ear to listen to what they are saying.

"Brother Lei, this situation what do you think? I can see now why the mayor was so scared when we said we will enter the forest. This place was filled with dark miasma that can kill any mortal. Ai, if only we could already find the source of this, therefore we can go back already to the Sect and feast of Sister Mei's rare spiritual weapon. My sword's already out of influence"

The other man didn't respond but only utter an 'hmm' sound.

"Brother Lei, when we go back to the Sect can you tell Martial Sister to forge me a crossbow? My sword is a little hard for me to handle. Crossbows are efficient and good in long range battle."

Then again the man only utter a 'hmmm' sound.

"Many thanks Senior Brother Lei I'll definitely return this favor someday"

"hmm"

The man seems to vibrate in happiness upon seeing his approval. Feng Long Wan furrowed her eyebrows. What's to be happy about? The other man didn't even answer him properly.

Feng Long Wan focused her stare at the silent man who was sitting near the campfire. Even though his eyes where close, a strong urge of energy was emitting on his body. Not to mention his above level appearance. He has a definite shape of face similar to a top star celebrity. His skin is fine as the jade. His robes radiates as clear the enormous calm sky. His calm and domineering aura is enough for her to tell that this man is not a small time person. He must be a renowned cultivator based on the expensive type of clothes he's wearing. Particularly opposite to the chatter guy he's facing.

"Have you been staring enough" his voice travelled to her ears. Clear as the morning sky and like a powerful sonata that can bewitch its listener. For a moment she dazed but then jolted realizing he was talking to her.

The moment she arrive, Zhan Qing Lei realizes her presence. As a cultivation on a high stage of cultivation he could hear footsteps clearly much more it was an ordinary person.

"Who are you!" the person next to Zhan Qing Lei pose a defensive stance.

"Please I mean no harm. Look I'm an injured person." Feng Long Wan pointed to her open wound.

The man eases his defense and put down his sword.

"Feng Long Wan" She didn't hesitate to announce her name. She knew this persons are righteous and might help her out of this forest. And since they were cultivators she knew the potential of their power.

"Pardon my hastiness, I am Hua Zu Ming and the beautiful devil there is Zhan Qing Lei" Hua Zu Ming became friendly in a second instance knowing she's harmless. He took the initiative to introduce Zhan Qing lei since he knew he will not go the hassle of introducing himself. He knew his martial Brother towards a stranger.

Hua Zu Ming look at the open wound of her and his face instantly fell. "Miss Feng, such a big wound where did you find it? How come you are here in this forest? How long have you stay here? Did you know that it's dangerous here? It's a miracle you're still alive!" Upon sitting Feng Long Wan was already bombarded by a lot of questions. She took a piece of her clothing and tore it. Wrapping around the wound to avoid the infection to occur. Then she turn to Hua Zu Ming. "I don't even know how I came into this place. When I woke up I was already here."

Hua Zu Ming became even more intrigue and inches towards her, "Miss Feng did you get abandoned?! Don't you have any spiritual influence? Damn, leaving a girl to die inside is so cruel!"

Hua Zu Ming statement was like salt rubbing to her wounds. But seeing he was genuinely concern about her she let it pass. The Hua Zu Ming turn to Zhan Qing Lei and said earnestly, "Martial Brother, can we escort her out of this forest?" Feng Long Wan also look at him.

Zhan Qing Lei indifferently nod.

Seeing he agreed. Feng Long Wan let out a sigh. She's not someone who takes freebies. When an opportunity rise, she will return the goodwill someday.

"Thanks Senior Brothers." Feng Long Wan followed those people she seen on historical dramas and cupped her hand expressing her gratitude.
