I walk out with my heart ripped to shreds, but I'm feeling numb. I wasn't surprised to hear Killian protecting the sect. That's what they do. Protecting them like the sect is a righteous thing that never makes a mistake.
The slap across my cheeks stings, but it doesn't ache as much as my heart. I made another move to go seek my demon master, who seems to know everything. I stared at the sky with a glint in my eyes, praying he would know about this strange place.
Yurei Hollow's Soul Market.
Based on the research I did in the library, it was a place for spiritual beasts that would be used for their powers, and they don't treat them with respect or compassion like those righteous cultivators.
I went further into the woods, the grass tall enough to touch my ankles, but it didn't stop me from reaching my purpose.
When I looked ahead, the forest was deep and dark like the jungle, which would've been hard for ordinary humans to navigate with nothing.
