Yuwen Jun raised his eyebrows: "Exactly how many people have disappeared in the mountains?"
"Only Wu Nuan and two maids are missing."
Yuwen Jun paused mid-step: "Do you mean two men broke in and took away three women?"
The Great Elder nodded.
Just then, someone added from behind: "Many people at the foot of the mountain also ran away."
"At the foot of the mountain?" Yuwen Jun was skeptical.
The Great Elder waved his hand indifferently: "Those were all hermits we recruited from the outside, who came here to avoid the wars outside. It must be that seeing catastrophe befall Witch Ancestor Mountain, they were overcome with fear for their lives and ran away again. However, most of these people died in the poisonous miasma, and it's impossible to recognize who is who."
They didn't even bother to drag out the bodies, letting them slowly decay in the poison barrier.
