I'll Quit Being a God-Novel

Chapter 90: Human-Faced Owl

The fog-shrouded Youtian Valley has a terrible legend. Strangers are not allowed to enter.

But for the cultivators of the Yun sect, the ghost shadow in the fog is not terrible.

Because, although this secluded valley is rarely visited, there are many cultivators who pass by and have long explored the existence of ghosts in the valley.

Although it is extremely terrible for ordinary people, if you have cultivation, you don't have to be too afraid.

Huo Feng has lost all his cultivation base, but with the Wolf God around, he also has the courage to set foot here.

However, although he was prepared in his heart, the moment he really stepped into the Youtian Valley, he felt the cold and evil in the air that suddenly intensified several times, but Huo Feng couldn't help shivering and his face turned slightly white.

Now it is early summer and the weather is hot. However, the white fog shrouded in the Youtian Valley is bitterly cold, just like in the middle of winter, Huo Feng has goose bumps all over his body, which is extremely uncomfortable.

Subconsciously, he leaned quietly in the direction of the Wolf God, for fear of something terrible rushing out of the fog.

Lu Heng followed Huo Feng and frowned at the Youtian Valley in front of him.

In the valley shrouded in white fog, lush grass is everywhere, and white flowers bloom in the grass. It looks quiet and peaceful.

If it weren't for the strange scene in the fog, the scenery of this valley could be called a paradise.

But the more you go inside, the more the dark and cold Qi in the air becomes stronger and stronger, and the temperature becomes lower and lower.

Huo Feng had loosened the reins of the horse, rubbed his arms as he walked, and said, "It's so cold…"

In the fog in front of them, vaguely, there were horrible figures wandering one after another.

They were all figures in terrible death, like fierce ghosts, with ferocious faces, floating in the fog.

But wherever Lu Heng went, these ghosts all withdrew in panic, as if they felt the aura of thunder around Lu Heng.

Huo Feng saw this scene, but he was not surprised.

If it were ordinary cultivators who entered this Youtian valley, although they don't have to be afraid of these ghosts, they usually rely on their cultivation to quickly walk through the valley to avoid the entanglement with the ghosts.

But this was the first time he saw that ghosts would avoid someone.

But the Wolf God can even control the power of heavenly thunder, this is naturally not a surprising thing.

Seeing all the ghosts in the fog hurried away, Huo Feng finally put down his worry and began to think about how to speak after seeing Witch Wu Gu next.

Lu Heng observed the ghosts in the fog and frowned slightly.

There is no netherworld in this world, and the souls will dissipate directly after people die. Only one kind of soul can survive.

——That is the evil thing that harbors resentment and turns into a fierce ghost.

After entering the Youtian Valley, Lu Heng saw at a glance that these ghosts wandering in the fog were not evil spirits. And judging from their clothing style, They may be the dead residents of the city not far away.

These residents' souls don't disperse after death, wandering and entrenching in the mountains, but they don't have the evil Qi of fierce ghosts… Is it related to the fog in the Youtian Valley?

In this fog, there is a cold evil Qi that the outside world doesn't have. Is this evil Qi maintaining the existence of these souls? So that they don't dissipate?

So what is the source of this evil Qi?

Lu Heng followed behind Huo Feng, feeling the intense evil Qi, and finally saw the source of all this.

A cold lake.

At the end of the Youtian Valley, there is a cold and yellowish lake.

Above the lake is the only area in Youtian valley without fog. Lu Heng could clearly see the small island in the lake and the cottages on the island.

Anyone could see that the cottage had just been recently built, even the straw on the roof was still a little green.

In the open space in front of the thatched cottage, there was a medicine furnace emitting faint red light, and hot air. The furnace seemed to be refining some secret medicine.

Huo Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

He hurriedly walked to the lake, bowed to the cottage in the lake, and shouted, "I'm Huo Feng of the Yun sect, and I'll bring a fat bird to visit Witch Wu Gu. Please be merciful to me, Witch Wu Gu!"

The voice of Huo Feng spread far in the fog.

However, there was no response before the empty cottage.

Huo Feng was a little confused and worried. Is it because my gift can't move Wu Gu?

But he heard the Wolf God nearby, "There is no one in this cottage. The witch is not there."

"Ah?" Huo Feng raised his head in consternation and looked at the cottage in the lake.

He saw a huge strange bird flying out of the cottage, and yelled with a smile, "Yes, Wu Gu is not here. That old witch went out to play, and there is only me here… The boy of the Yun sect, you bring the fatty bird to the door, do you want to ask Wu Gu to help you heal?"

"It's a pity that the old woman has a strange temper. Even if you see her, she will certainly not cure you. Fortunately, I'm kind. Let me have a look at the fat bird. Maybe I can cure you."

The strange bird's laughter was sharp and hoarse, which made people uncomfortable.

And its body shape is even stranger.

It's not big, but it's also the size of an ordinary ape. A pair of gray black wings spread, revealing the ape-like body full of fuzz, but the feet are sharp claws, above which is a human-like head.

But the face was gloomy and terrifying, and it made people feel chilly at a glance, knowing that this was by no means a good kind.

This strange bird is…

"Human-faced owl?!" Huo Feng was shocked and subconsciously stepped back.

On the thatched cottage roof in the lake, the strange and terrifying bird laughed hoarsely, "Are the Yun sect full of cowards like you? Don't worry, I didn't eat humans for many years, you can take your companions here. You won't be killed."

"But first of all, I want to remind you that the water can erode the bones and enchant the soul. Don't touch it when you wade over."

The sharp laughter of the strange bird makes the white wolf by the lake shook his head and said with a smile, "It's just not touching the water. Why is it difficult?"

With that, he took a direct step and stepped into the dark yellow muddy lake.

The invisible energy of thunder spread at Lu Heng's feet, separating the cold and bone-eroding spring water from his body.

He smiled and said, "Brother Huo, Xiao Ai, come with me."

The little girl with silver hair and ears followed and walked with Lu Heng.

Although Huo Feng was frightened in his heart, he saw nothing wrong with the Wolf God stepping into the lake, so he also led the Bo horse to follow up.

Two people, a wolf, and a Bo horse walked directly from the dark yellow and muddy lake, and the cold lake water could not hurt them.

Seeing this scene, the human-faced owl on the cottage was so scared that it screamed and flipped up and down.

"The Heavenly lightning! the Heavenly lightning!"

"You monster! You can control the Heavenly Thunder… Don't come here! Don't come here!"

The human-faced owl issued a sad cry, "If you take another step forward, I'm going to kill myself in front of you!"
