Back For My Daughter

As she said that, the woman gasped as if she remembered what had really happened back then had made her be really frightened.

"When I was caught, one of the monks directly raised his sword right before my eyes and I knew that if it were not for the words from the other monk he would not have waited for a moment and killed me right there."

Although she had lost hope of living ever since seeing her son being mutilated right before her eyes, the fear of death was something that anyone would feel when they were to face it no matter how much they were willing to.

In fact, it would not be wrong to say that even those who tried to end their lives would feel afraid after doing something to kill themselves.

"The other monk quickly stopped the guy from before with nothing but a belt that was hung on his waist before the sword could chop off my neck."

Ye Qian frowned, from what she had said so far, he could tell that these so-called monks were definitely not some ordinary monks but were some group of cultivators that might go to the mountains on a regular basis in order to get some old herbs and also some plants that might have a few traces of Spiritual Qi within them for making some medicines or Dans.

Dans were nothing other than simple medicinal liquids that herbs and various medicinal plants would extract.

The lady then continued.

"They then asked me why I was following them."

"I didn't know what happened to me, as if something had taken over my mind, I started saying everything to them, about what had happened back a month ago and what I had seen."

"It was as if I was hypnotized, I just couldn't keep control over myself even though I didn't want to tell all of that to them."

Ye Qian could see that as she said that, her body subconsciously tightened remembering the feeling from back then.

Hypnosis was nothing new for Ye Qian, but the fact that even after knowing that you didn't want to do something yet were forced to do made one feel utterly helpless.

And this was already good that she was only asked what her motives were and why she was following them.

In extreme cases maybe things might have just been also worse like she might have been taken advantage of even after knowing.

For a woman that could be said as the worst nightmare that she could have and after having gone through what she had nothing but just a month ago, it would not be wrong to say that there was nothing that she could believe completely or look at anyone and believe them.

But Ye Qian could also confirm that the so-called monks were not proficient in hypnosis since she could tell that she was hypnotized.

"After hearing everything that they wanted to know, I finally felt my mind be released from the strange feeling, the people then brought me along with them until they were in the mountains and after that, they also brought me to some weird place that I don't know the direction towards."

"They had placed a blindfold on my eyes as they brought me to a place that they called a school."

"I only know that their school was really weird, rather than any normal school, the building in that place looked quite old-fashioned and all of the people there were wearing clothes from the last two or three centuries."

"I didn't know why they had brought me along with them or what they wanted to do since other than me, there was no one like me, I mean a normal person."

The lady shook her head trying to be as elaborate on the details as much as she could remember.

"I didn't know what happened after they went to a big stone building but after a while, they brought me along with them, to someone whom they called their master."

"While the other people would call that man Headmaster."

"When I saw him, I was a bit shocked that the Headmaster looked very young, but the way he talked and reacted was like someone who was quite old."

"The Headmaster said to me that they were willing to help me take revenge for my son's death."

"Back then, there was nothing going on in my mind other than that and I didn't know if that was even possible but didn't think anything when he said that I could get revenge for my son, Huo would continuously appear in my mind."

She took in a deep breath and then continued.

"I agreed and then they started to teach me several things, I knew that it was not karate or martial arts, but it made my body feel much more energetic, they said that if I wanted to wield that weapon then I would need a lot of energy and or even if I was able to plunge the weapon into the monster's body it wouldn't be enough to kill him."

"I tried my best to learn everything they tried to teach me that week."

"It was surely not a great experience, but the reason I had was enough to keep me awake."

"After exhausting myself and learning what they wanted me to learn in those days, the Headmaster called me and handed me a dagger that was wrapped in silk."

"He told me that this dagger was a weapon that had existed in the legends and was the Dagger of Eternity."

"I didn't understand why would they want to give such a weapon to me, but I was really grateful for their help"

"After giving me that, he told me that I would meet the monster after 679 days from back then."

"And that when the monster would appear many strange deaths would be found in various places."

The lady looked at Ye Qian.

"The strange deaths of the animals only made my belief come true."

She nodded, but her words only made Ye Qian frown.
