Wei Yi led the man in black through the woods, along the path down the mountain, and entered the flat mountain plains.

Along the way, the man in black followed Wei Yi like a black shadow, but he didn't seem to pay attention to the boy who glanced at him from time to time. Instead, he kept his attention on the jungle on the roadside. He seemed to know that he and the other person were

Wherever you want to go, keep walking forward silently.

Soon, large tracts of bushes heralded the end of the dense forest, the terrain of the valley became gentle and sloped downward, and the long-lost chirping of insects also reached his ears. When Vey saw some landmarks demarcated by the Highland Valley

Finally, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, the men in black were silent and did not speak, and Wei Yi kept sizing up the men in black secretly. This tall black figure was like one of those monsters.

Just when Wei Yi was thinking about the origin of the man in black, he suddenly thought that the man in black had not mentioned his name.

When the two of them reached the winding path at the edge of the highland valley that was difficult for people to walk on, the man in black suddenly stopped and slowly raised his head that had been lowered along the way.

Seeing that the man in black stopped and seemed to be on guard for something, Wei Yi, who had been trained for more than ten years, immediately reacted. He quickly grabbed the hilt of the sword stretched out from behind, and turned sideways to listen.

The sound of insects in the grass has long since disappeared, and even the gentle breeze at night has disappeared. Time seems to have stopped, and two figures, one tall and one short, stand quietly on the path, motionless.

"Quick, hide in the bushes! Go now and don't make a sound." The man in black growled eagerly.

The next moment, he grabbed Wei Yi's shoulders and pushed him forward. Before Wei Yi could react, he left the path like a cloud and fell into a tall and dense bush six or seven meters away from the path.

Among the bushes, Wei Yi's long sword also fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

The man in black swayed his body and got into the bushes. With a wave of his robe, Wei Yi, who had just stood up from the ground, and the sword that shone coldly in the moonlight were covered underneath.

"Quiet!" The man in black covered Wei Yi's mouth with one hand and whispered.

Wei Yi looked at him with some fear, nodded, and the man in black let go of his hand.

Wei Yi's chest heaved violently, trying hard to calm down the uneasiness and tension in his heart. He held his breath and peered out through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves, only to see the stars in the night sky.

Two minutes passed like this, and a black shadow flashed past the edge of the woods without warning. The figure dozens of feet long covered the night sky. After dozens of seconds, the black shadow flew back again, with the looming shadow on it

The breath made the surrounding air a little darker. Only this time, the black shadow circled several times in the night sky above Wei Yi's head and left quickly with a terrifying scream.

Cold sweat soaked Wei Yi's back until more than ten seconds later, his body swayed and he sat on the ground, breathing heavily.

The scream of the black shadow just now left a shadow in his heart. Wei Yi was certain that even his teacher, who was a senior military leader, could not match the aura emanating from that black shadow.

Ten minutes later, the sound of small insects sounded in the grass. At this time, the man in black opened his black robe: "Let's go, little guy..." He whispered: "We escaped a

Tribulation.”

Wei Yi raised his head, his blue eyes showing fear.

"what is that?"

The man in black was silent for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Black magic bat, one of the monsters."

Wei Yi was stunned and took a breath of cold air. The rumor in his mind came out involuntarily.

It turns out that the rumor was true, and the monsters really came to Highland Valley.

The man in black seemed to have decided something, and his tone became much firmer: "Okay, take me to the Highland Valley quickly. I want to have a good talk with you and your father."

Weiyi nodded numbly. He stood up and picked up the sword on the ground. Without thinking about what the man in black said, he nodded to the man in black and walked faster towards the highland valley.

After a while, the dirt path turned into a flat road, leading to the village. The light of the houses not far away was faintly discernible. Wei Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief and showed a relaxed smile for the first time.

They slowly passed the house. It was already dark at this time, and the door of the house was locked. Wei Yi came to a two-story house made of wood and bluestone. Through the window, he could see the fireplace.

The burning of firewood.

Wei Yi looked back at the man in black behind him. The man in black seemed to be thinking about something at this time. He neither raised his head to look at him nor observed the surrounding environment, just like a local highlander who was familiar with the environment.

Veil pulled the heavy oak latch, opened the door and entered the living room.

There is a wooden table in the living room, and several high wooden chairs with some kind of fur hanging on them are placed by the fireplace. The firewood in the fireplace illuminates the living room brightly, and the sound of cup-changing can be heard from the stairs leading to the second floor.

The noise of the lamp.

Vey's father, the old Wimmersela, has been a carpenter for decades. Because of his old age, he has rarely worked in recent years. The old Wimmersela transformed the second floor of his house into a restaurant. Every night, he

Friends and acquaintances often come to restaurants to drink and chat.

"No need to call you father, I'll talk to you directly." The man in black pointed to the high wooden chair by the fireplace, his voice a little tired.

Wei Yi hesitated for a while, then nodded. The two sat by the fireplace, and the man in black lifted the hood on his head.

With the help of the firelight, Wei Yi could see the appearance of this black-clothed giant better. The man in black had a pair of brown eyes with a sharp gaze, and had finger-long black hair like steel felt.

"Are you curious about why I seem to know you and what I know about your family situation?" The man in black smiled slightly.

Weiyi hesitated for a moment: "I don't think we have met or known each other before. Are you a distant relative of our family?"

The man in black chuckled a few times and leaned his burly body on the back of the wooden chair: "No, I'm not. To be precise, I really want to be your relative. Frankly speaking, I know you very well!"

After a while, he said calmly: "By the way, let me introduce myself. I am a troubadour. My name is Tanser, Tanser Oldham. Do you know the current situation in the southern part of the continent?"

At this time, Wei Yi no longer listened to what he said next, but stared blankly at the burly giant.

Tanser, the most mysterious traveler in the mainland, is a philosopher, historian, and mystic who can be said to have the best understanding of the six realms of the mainland. There are also rumors that he is the top magician in the mainland. From the north

From the shale valley to the remote highland valley in the south, to the forbidden mountains in the outer north, even the most reclusive dragon clan, the Snow Spirit clan, knows about his prominent reputation.

No one knows his origins, and no one knows his whereabouts. Some say he is from a reclusive race. There are even rumors that he is a god, or an immortal tribesman who has lived for thousands of years.

.Over the years, many ethnic groups have tried to find traces of him, but all failed.

And now he actually came to the Highland Valley, standing in front of him? This suddenly made the sixteen-year-old Wei Yi unable to react.

"Then...then why did you come to our Highland Valley?" Wei Yi finally asked.
