Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1220 A Letter and Blessing

On the other side, Ye Qing and the other two became somewhat hesitant!

They looked at the words on the parchment.

"In order to find the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, I took Long Rui and Zhang Heng back to Verati City. After the assassination failed, I decided to give up and wait for someone to break through to the Venerable level before I could settle accounts with Huang Ge and Long Rui!"

"These people all deserve to die!"

"But before that, I've decided to go find the Sky-Piercing Shuttle!"

"I risked my life to cross the city, and finally, the Sky-Piercing Shuttle in my hand sensed something. The three of us decided to head to where the Sky-Piercing Shuttle was!"

"However, when I arrived at this place, I found that the evil here was far more terrifying than I had imagined. I saw an old man chopping wood, a peddler selling goods, and I also saw the ancient bronze coffin standing in the middle of this area. I found myself..."

"This place...is far beyond...imaginable!"

"In order to... I have decided... to make a deal with the parchment!"

Upon seeing this, Ye Qing frowned deeply. He realized that the ellipses seemed to be omitting a lot of content, which was quite unsettling for him!

"What is this?" Zhang Heng asked.

“This parchment has a certain prophetic ability!” Ye Qing said.

"Prophecy ability?" Zhang Heng's pupils contracted. "Legend has it that a great emperor with prophetic abilities once committed suicide. He cut off his own skin and scattered it throughout the universe. Could it be that he was corrupted, which is why he chose to do this?"

Ye Qing had already accepted this statement, and he felt that it was most likely true, since he still had another parchment in his possession!

"So, does this mean that the prophecy in this book foretells that we'll encounter trouble if we go to find the Sky-Piercing Shuttle?" Zhang Heng asked.

“It seems so, but these parchments are usually used to lure me into making a deal with him. We have to carefully read what’s written on them!” Ye Qing said, then pondered for a moment before adding, “However, you can go back to the Dragon’s Nest and wait for me there. It’s safe there. I’ve memorized this route. I’ll go get the things and then come back!”

Long Rui shook her head and said, "Why do I feel that, judging from this parchment, our destination seems to have formed a world? Perhaps there are other people living in Silent Hill?"

Ye Qing also felt that this was not impossible.

According to Long Xuan, Silent Hill was divided into separate spaces, forming a cage.

As long as you don't leave your current space, there won't be any problems. But if you leave, you will be punished by the rules here.

Long Xuan's space for movement doesn't seem to be very large, but Na Yu seems to belong to the entire Mirror Lake.

If there were a larger space, there might even be other people there.

"I have to go and take a look!" Long Rui said. "What if there's another opportunity?"

"Why don't you go back first?" Long Rui said. "If you can't find your way, I'll take you there first..."

“Since you’ve all decided to go, I’ll go with you!” Zhang Heng said.

Ye Qing frowned slightly. He didn't mind going alone, but if the two of them went, he would blame himself if trouble arose. In that case, he might actually have to make a deal with the parchment to get out of the predicament!

Of course, this is also why Ye Qing decided to go.

The last sentence on the parchment proves that as long as they make a deal, they will most likely be able to get out of that predicament.

Although this deal might cause Ye Qing some trouble, that seems to be a matter for the future.

And... if it's used a second time, it probably isn't that many times.

"Let's go!" Ye Qing said, taking a deep breath.

The three set off again. Guided by the Sky-Piercing Shuttle in Ye Qing's hand, they traveled back and forth between the cities. Before long, Ye Qing felt that the collapsed houses around them had become smaller, as if they had arrived at a relatively remote part of the city!

"Young man, can you do me a favor?" Just as Ye Qing and the others were hesitating, a voice suddenly rang in Ye Qing's ear.

Ye Qing was startled!

His mental energy remained activated the entire time, yet no one appeared within the range of his mental energy!

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw an old woman with a cane standing not far away!

Ye Qing looked around and found that apart from the three of them, there was no one else around.

Ye Qing felt a chill run down her spine!

In Silent Hill, anyone who can appear during the day is definitely extraordinary. The fact that this old woman appeared in this place out of nowhere shows that she is no ordinary person!

Ye Qing swallowed hard and said, "Old man, are you talking to us?"

"I'm talking to you! I sense a familiar presence in you!" the old woman said. "Could you do me a favor?"

Ye Qing swallowed hard and asked, "What kind of help?"

"I have a letter here. Could you please go to the place you need to go and give it to the peddler?" The old woman's eyes held a hint of pleading.

Ye Qing was completely stunned!

Peddler?

The parchment also mentioned the word "peddler".

It seemed as if he would meet this person wherever he went.

Ye Qing hesitated for a moment.

He and Long Rui exchanged a glance and sensed that something was wrong.

They discovered that their summary of Silent Hill's situation seemed completely inadequate.

"Young man, don't worry, I mean no harm! I'm not a bad person!" the old woman said.

Ye Qing hesitated for a moment, gripping the parchment tightly in his hand, and then said, "Then just give me the letter!"

"Alright!" The old woman nodded and gently pointed at the space in front of Ye Qing.

The next moment, an envelope appeared out of thin air in front of Ye Qing.

The envelope fell to the ground, and Ye Qing caught it in his hand, without sensing anything amiss.

"Young man, thank you, I will... wish you good luck!" The old woman's face showed a kind expression as she said, "By the way, be careful... woodcutter, be very careful!"

At this point, the old woman in front of Ye Qing suddenly vanished into thin air.

If the envelope in his hand hadn't been real, Ye Qing would have felt as if the old woman had never even appeared.
