The Southern Regions, a cursed land.
The place where Jiang Hanxi was teleported during her reconstruction is now radiating light, gradually forming a crystal screen.
With a final whoosh, a person appeared in the crystal screen—it was Wang Feng!
Wang Feng appeared here, and for a moment he was blinded by the dazzling sun.
"Hiss~"
Looking around at the surrounding forest, Wang Feng had no idea where he was, so he walked around for a while.
Finally, they discovered... a strip of cloth, so pale it was almost invisible, was hanging behind a tree.
Wang Feng reached out and picked it up, feeling a sense of familiarity, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find the source of this familiarity, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"System, check whose cloth this is."
Since I can't remember, I might as well let the system take a look. The system can still detect items of this low level.
[Ding, detecting: This is the clothing of Empress Jiang Hanxi, the Ice Queen, which was torn to shreds by an idiot during her reconstruction.]
Wang Feng: ......
Now Wang Feng finally remembered that this was the first time he and Jiang Hanxi, enemies, had met.
Wang Feng held the strip of red cloth, its color now almost faded, in one hand, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile slightly.
By this time, everything had changed for them, and they had experienced countless things.
"So this is where Willow Village is located?"
Wang Feng walked through the woods, carefully tied the pale red cloth strip into a bow, and put it into his storage space.
[Ding, that's right!]
"Hiss~"
She went to such great lengths to teleport me directly from the Northern Territory back to the Southern Territory. Wang Feng couldn't help but gasp when he thought about it.
It's important to understand that teleporting across two domains is not as simple as just adding one domain to another. Jiang Hanxi didn't know how it was done, and the location could be so precise.
[Ding! Detection revealed that only one Great Emperor remains in the world, and it's not the Ice Empress!]
"Get out of here, get out of here."
Wang Feng listened to the system's teasing voice and shooed it away a few times.
However, they did not sever ties with it. Instead, they chatted and joked around, kicking pebbles as they walked.
"System, what kind of expressions do you think the people of Willow Village will have when they see me again?"
"I'd like to see if they build a temple for me, hahaha."
"If it's really established, then we'll copy a top-grade cultivation technique for them."
After saying this, Wang Feng picked up a small stone, flicked it with his hand, and a large eagle fell straight down from the sky.
Looking down at its chest, there was a tiny hole, about the same size as the small stone from before, from which blood was flowing.
"What great luck! Hahaha, I remember the first time I came here, it took me ages to find the monster."
Wang Feng laughed a few times; if anyone were there, they would think he was talking to himself.
However, the system in his mind was chatting flirtatiously with him at the moment, teasing Wang Feng every now and then, which almost made Wang Feng curse at it.
"Back to the village!!"
Wang Feng put the giant eagle, which was the size of two adults, into his storage space, and then he instantly took flight.
As his cultivation level improved, Wang Feng noticed something was off about this place as soon as he returned.
It was as if something was buried deep underground.
But Wang Feng was too lazy to pay attention to it, and didn't want to. He always felt that the thing couldn't be anything good.
As Wang Feng flew through the sky, his field of vision became much wider.
What he didn't expect was that besides Liu Village, there were several other villages here, but the people in the villages seemed to be somewhat listless.
Just like when Wang Feng first saw the people of Liu Village, they all seemed to be starving and desperately short of food.
Wang Feng ignored him and, following his previous memories, flew towards Willow Village at an incredible speed.
Before long, Wang Feng flew to the location of Willow Village in his memory.
But... all that remained below were dilapidated houses covered in branches; the villagers had vanished without a trace.
It was obvious that the village had been in ruins for quite some time, and it was possible that no one had been there for the few months that Wang Feng left.
Wang Feng was a little dumbfounded. What was going on?
Then, with a whoosh, he instantly appeared in the very center of the village, right where the willow tree was.
At this moment, the willow tree was no longer recognizable as a willow tree; it was just a stump, devoid of any divine aura.
This means... the soul has been stolen?
Wang Feng immediately saw the problem: having had its essence stolen, the willow tree must have only lasted a few days before completely rotting and collapsing.
Wang Feng searched around the village several times and suddenly saw a large temple, bigger than all the houses in the village.
Wang Feng's heart skipped a beat. It really was erected. Given the situation in Liu Village, it must have taken a lot of time and effort to build this temple.
Upon entering, one sees a statue directly opposite the temple entrance. It is exquisitely crafted, and although it is made of wood, one can tell that great care was taken in its creation.
Next to the large wooden statue are several statues of children, which are quite ugly and look as if they were carved by those children.
It was placed very affectionately next to Wang Feng's wooden statue, as if it greatly admired and thanked Wang Feng.
However, the temple and wooden statues were in a very dilapidated state at this time, and were decaying. In the long run, they eventually decayed.
Wang Feng ran out of the temple gate, channeling his spiritual power as he roared, "Where is everyone?!"
The entire Willow Village trembled from the roar, and even the birds in the distance were startled and flew away, but no one from Willow Village came out for a long time.
Wang Feng waited a while, then shouted a few more times, attracting people from the surrounding villages.
