Monarch of Darkness

Chapter 120: A never before seen tailsman



The frown on the head of Nascent soul realm expert deepened as he searched hear and there. Evan and Alice managed to fly a considerable distance within few minutes.

Evan turned his head towards the distant battlefield. A worried look appeared in his eyes. Losing a Nascent soul realm expert was a big blow to the Thousand swords kingdom. Moreover, shadow commander was following him in these few days. He felt helpless as he looked at the distant battlefield. Nascent soul realm experts were something he couldn't handle given his meagre strength.

He vowed to grow stronger to protect everyone around him but here he was staring helplessly as someone he knew struggling to escape from the countless enemies. Evan felt awful. "Big brother, do you want to protect grandpa shadow?", a sweet voice came from his side.

"Alice, do you have any way?", Evan turned his head to look at Alice. Alice nodded his head in affirmation. "Then what are you waiting for?", Evan rebuked Alice.

"I have very few of them with me", Alice complained sulkily. She brought out two papers and handed them to Evan. "Big brother, inject your essence energy and throw them towards the direction where grandpa shadow is fighting", Alice instructed.

"Are these tailsman?", Evan looked at Alice with surprise in his eyes. Alice nodded her head. Evan injected his essence energy into the ancient looking papers and the papers started to glow immediately.

Evan didn't know their functions but he still followed the words of Alice and threw them towards the direction where shadow commander was fighting.

"What is this?", the eyes of the Nascent soul realm expert who was searching for the whereabouts of Evan and Alice shifted towards the first flowing papers. Evan had channeled the wind energy with his throw. So, it went towards the direction of shadow commander rapidly.

The two papers couldn't reach the exact location. It collided with the branches of a tall tree and disintegrated in the air. "Shit", Evan cursed. He didn't know the purpose of the two tailsman. So, he thought he fell this time.

But what happened next make him dumbfounded. A fog started to appear where the tailsman collided and it quickly spread to the surrounding. Before he could react, his vision got impaired by the thick fog.

"So, it is a vision obstruction tailsman", Zhan Chen thought to himself. "What is the other tailsman then?", he wondered inside his mind.

He felt curious. So, he spread his soul consciousness towards the distant battlefield. Now that noone could see them, he felt emboldened.contemporary romance

"What is this?" Evan could feel that something is obstructing his soul conscious. He tried again but the result was same. "What kind of tailsman can obstruct soul consciousness?", he thought to himself. Despite his vast knowledge, he had never heard of any tailsman which could obstruct soul consciousness.

"Big brother, Let's leave this place. Every tailsman has a time limit. So, we need to go out", Alice urged Evan. 

"Ok, let's go", Zhan Chen agreed. He freed himself from little Alice who was still clutching his back like a monkey.

Then he held her hand and ran towards outside. Although the robe of Alice could protect them from the eyes of enemies, it greatly limit their speed. So, Evan preferred to sneak away in this time. As for shadow commander, they had done what they could. 

Evan knew the prowcess of shadow commander. He could easily evede enemies in this confusing situation. So, he didn't bother about him. He employeed the Shadow ghost dance technique and dashed outside while holding the hand of Alice.

What disappointed him was the fact that he didn't find any magical beast on their way. Riding a magical beast would have saved him many troubles but pity that he couldn't find one. 

"It seems like all the beasts have ran to the deep wilderness", Evan shook his head. It took them an hour of time to exit the wilderness.

They found an ordinary village at outskirt of wilderness. Evan spread his soul consciousness but couldn't find a single horse in the village. 

"What should we do?", Evan frowned. "Alice, are you feeling sleepy?", Evan asked with concern. "No, why should I be sleepy. It is very much fun to roam outside with big brother", Alice blinked her big eyes and replied. A smile crept into Evan's tense face after listening to her reply.

Evan spread his soul consciousness and found another village at a distance. He spread his soul consciousness when they reached the vicinity of the village.

"Oh, there are no horses but some tamed hunting wolves are here", Evan's eyes lit up with interest. He went over and knocked on the door of the said house where the tamed wolves were kept.

He could have easily snatched the wolves but it would be impolite to snatch domestic animals from a commoner. After knocking for a bit, movement sounded from the house.

"Who is it?", a voice came from behind the door. "Mister, can you lend a wolf to us?", Evan asked politely. "No way, I am not giving my wolves", an annoying voice came from behind the door.

"Mister, we have money. Can we buy your wolf?", Evan tried to persuade the owner of the house. He knew that his aunt must had found out about their disappearance now. Evan didn't want to trouble her much. So, he was in a hurry to return. 

The door opened and a sturdy looking youth came out. He had an annoying look in his face as he was prepared to harshly rebuke the party who was refusing to let him sleep.

He looked over and a dumbfounded look appeared on his face after he saw Evan and Alice.

"Huh! Two children!", he muttered in an astonished tone. "You two need wolves?", he asked in a disbelieving voice. He didn't understand why there were two unknown kids demanding wolves from him in the middle of night.

Evan nodded his head. He looked at the Scarfaced youth and subconsciously check him with his soul consciousness. His eyes lit up after his soul consciousness touched the soul of the scarfaced youth.
