After nearly a month of a long journey, with stops and starts, a group of people finally arrived in a lush green forest.
Gu Fan looked around at the surrounding green hills and clear waters, ancient trees reaching for the sky, and fresh air. He occasionally saw small animals hopping about—it truly seemed like a hospitable place.
However, the many dilapidated houses and the bloodstains still present on the rocks seemed to remind everyone that this place wasn't as pleasant as it appeared.
Xue Wang asked a question, "Is this the place where the Eternal Life Clan used to live?"
Lord Xiong nodded, then walked towards those ruined houses, a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Everyone followed him, trailing behind Lord Xiong on a path overgrown with weeds, not knowing where he intended to lead them.
Gu Fan looked at the ruined houses, some built with sturdy rocks, but even so, the walls were severely shattered, as if they had been broken by some external force.
