Chapter 189: An unknown woman
"What should we do now? Do you still want to take this path? We can take a different path. I don't think it's a good idea. Look at those body parts and guts all around that place. That beast is very scary," she responded to him with an unpleasant expression clearly visible on her face.
Yohan chuckled seeing that expression on her face. He sighed as he placed his hand on her shoulder to calm her, but the next moment both of them heard a loud howl and their gazes went towards that beast which was looking like a giant wolf.
"What the hell? Why is he howling like this?" Yohan asked as he saw the giant beast howling and looking towards the sky, Natasha grabbed Yohan's hand as she saw this. That howl was very scary and it was echoing in the whole surrounding valley.
And the next moment something unexpected happened when they both saw a figure who ran on the edge of the cliff and finally that figure jumped into the valley in front of that beast. That giant beast took a few steps towards that figure and the next moment he started wagging his tail and rolling on the ground after seeing that figure.
Yohan and Natasha were taken aback as they saw this. That beast was behaving like a puppy in front of that figure. That figure approached the beast and touched him and finally removed the hood.
"A woman," Yohan mumbled as his gaze went towards that figure and he saw her beautiful face. She was a woman who was wearing the hood along with a red robe. Her hair was long and it was black in color. Her face was white and beautiful along with dark blue eyes which were shining as she was looking towards the direction of that beast. Yohan wasn't able to remove his gaze from her.
She was indeed very beautiful and had a profound aura around her, just like lady Evelyn.
"She is very beautiful. I never saw any women like this, but what is she doing in this place and why is she not afraid of that beast? Look at him. He is wagging his tail like a dog. I told you that he is a big dog, not a wolf," Natasha said as she looked towards Yohan. Hearing those words, he came to his senses and smiled towards Natasha.
He nodded his head towards her while his gaze again went towards that woman. She was gently caressing that beast and the next moment she jumped on his back and whispered something in a low voice. Hearing her words, the beast once again howled in a loud voice and jumped over the cliff and left that place along with that woman.
Yohan took a deep sigh as he saw this and sat down beside the small stone wall.
"Are you okay? We should approach her and ask her for help to leave this place, after all, she is the first human being we encountered here." Natasha looked towards Yohan as she said those words.
Yohan tilted his head towards Natasha, smiled at her and he gently placed her hand on his chest.
"I am okay. It's a good thing that she left this place and didn't notice our presence around here. She is very powerful and accompanied by that beast. It's better to stay on guard. We don't know anything about her, she might be a friend but what will you do if she wants to kill us?" Yohan responded to Natasha.
Natasha took a deep breath and smiled bitterly as she heard Yohan. She raised her head and looked at him.
"I am sorry. I thought we might be able to leave this place with her help. I never thought about the second possibility," she said as she looked towards Yohan.
"It's okay. I can understand, you don't have to apologize to me," Yohan responded to her while he hugged her tightly.
"You said she is powerful but why didn't she notice our presence in this place? She might not be that powerful," Natasha whispered in a low voice.
"It's because of that blood and the stench of this place. Our body odor is nothing compared to the stench of this place. That beast was eating that creature and his blood was all over that place, so that's why they didn't notice our presence around here," Yohan explained to Natasha as she quietly listened to him.
Meanwhile…
A woman could be seen standing on the edge of a cliff while a beast was standing behind her and wagging his tail. That woman's gaze was on two figures, a young man and a woman. That woman was in his embrace as both of them were sitting together tucked beside the stone wall. She was looking at these two people from far away.
"Interesting, I never thought I would meet human's here in a place like this. I wonder what they are doing here," that woman whispered in a low voice as she looked towards Yohan and Natasha.
"Should I kill them, my lady?"
She heard a voice that came from behind. That woman tilted her head and looked towards the beast. The giant beast's body started shaking and started changing its shape and a few moments later that beast finally took the shape of a human girl. She was looking around eight years old and was a cute little girl, while blood stains could be seen on her mouth.
She approached the edge of the hill and she looked towards the direction of Yohan and Natasha and shifted her gaze towards the lady beside her who was looking very calm as her gaze was in the direction of Yohan and Natasha.
"That man…he is somewhat different, and the woman is a newly awakened cultivator, she is weak but that man is strong. They have nothing to do with us. We need to find that thing and we will leave this place quietly.
There is no need to kill them, they will die sooner or later inside this hell," that woman responded to that girl and one last time she looked towards Yohan before disappearing from that hill along with that girl.
