Chapter 362 – 362. Vampire Territory (2)
While on the other hand, the girl slowly raised one of her hands, and at that very moment, the bird jumped onto her index finger and perched on it.
"Long time no see, little friend," she said, wiping the bird's head with her thumb.
Wan Lie and the others who heard and saw Fu Xie Lan's behavior exchanged glances.
It was as if the girl standing before them was a different person from the one they usually met.
"Xie Lan, you now like this kind of creature?" Xue Ning asked approaching the girl.
Those who were asked just turned around and didn't give any response.
"Alright, let's continue our journey," said Fu Xie Lan, turning around and starting to walk.
Xue Ning who saw that just shrugged at those who saw her and followed suit.
"Xie Lan, wait for me," she said sprinting trying to match Fu Xie Lan's position.
Entering a village, quiet. Only occasionally seen people passing by.
"Where are the inhabitants of this village?" Xue Ning muttered. The girl's brow furrowed in confusion.
"Vampire will be active at night, so don't be surprised if you rarely see them during the day," Ju Xian replied in a tone neither big nor small.
Xue Ning just nodded in understanding. Understandably she did not know it because of the way her life is so far. She doesn't know the wizard's territory, especially if it's about residents of other races' territories?
While on the other hand, Fu Xie Lan chose to approach one of the women who was sitting relaxing in a chair in front of her house, her closed eyes indicating that she was enjoying the cool air from the dense tree that stood firmly beside her.
"Excuse me…" said Fu Xie Lan just as she was standing near the woman.
"Excuse me…" she repeated because she didn't get any response.
"Excuse me…" Fu Xie Lan raised her voice slightly.
At the same time, the figure blinked its eyes, looking around it.
Her body froze when she found several wizards standing right in front of her.
"May I ask?" said Fu Xie Lan.
Instantly the woman straightened her body, returned to normalize her expression.
"Please," she said.
"Do you know where the Wang family is?" asked Fu Xie Lan.
"Wang family?"
"What are you looking for the family for?" she asked again.
"We have a message for them," Fu Xie Lan replied in that instant.
The woman was silent for a few seconds, judging one by one from those who were standing in front of her.
"If you want to meet them, you have to travel to the city center," said the figure in response.
"City center?"
"Could you tell us the directions to the city center?" asked Fu Xie Lan very politely.
"Sorry, Miss. For this you can look for it yourself," replied the woman then rose from her position, leaving Fu Xie Lan and the others with a myriad of question marks.
"Whereas we were just asking, but the response was very unsightly," Xue Ning mumbled and was immediately rewarded with a glare from Wan Lie.
"If you are in foreign territory, you better shut up and observe your surroundings. Don't talk too much, idiot!"
"Let's go!" said Fu Xie Lan interrupting the two figures who seemed to be making another commotion.
"Alright, Xie Lan," Xue Ning said immediately taking long strides and walking right next to Fu Xie Lan.
"I didn't know you liked birds, Xie Lan," Xue Ning said.
"If I had known earlier, I might have brought you some," she added.
Wan Lie only snorted at the girl's words. But Xue Ning didn't care about it at all.
"So where do we go now, Xie Lan?" asked Wan Lie who was walking behind the two blue-robed girl figures.
"Downtown," Fu Xie Lan replied.
"I know, Xie Lan. I mean, where are we going? Whereas the woman was reluctant to tell us all," said Wan Lie.
"Don't worry. We can look for it," Fu Xie Lan replied.
"Alright," Wan Lie replied with a rough sigh.
They all ended up following Fu Xie Lan who led the way.
Walking for several tens of minutes, they had not yet left the village.
No one knows how many times they had all stopped asking about the whereabouts of the city center, but none of them gave a satisfactory answer. Their response was no less different from the previous women. Some even just heard their questions, All people had left without giving any answers.
"Strange," Xue Ning said.
"Xie Lan, wait a moment," she added again then took off her blue robe. And at the same time, she took out her wand and then flew up. Xue Ning did so in the hope that she could see where the downtown was.
Meanwhile, those who saw Xue Ning's sudden action just shook their heads slowly. However, they all understood what the girl was doing up there.
"What do you see?" Wan Lie asked just as the girl landed on the ground and returned to her original position.
"Only hills, mountains, and forests," replied the girl immediately.
"Huh?"
"You don't see the existence of the city?"
"No, Xie Lan. I don't see any houses other than this place," she replied as she put on the blue robe she took off earlier.
"Are you sure?"
Xue Ning just nodded in approval.
Fu Xie Lan who heard this did not respond much. If her memory was correct, the Vampire territory was only inhabited by four clans. Each is headed by a family head. And the area is also divided into four parts. While the place is currently, on the outskirts. Where mostly only inhabited by Vampires who are not pureblood.
Yes, she knew all of that when she read a book about the Vampire Race when she was still at Elder Chen's residence. Back then she had only skimmed through it, never expecting that she would visit the territory of several races.
If only Fu Xie Lan knew about it, then maybe she would read every page, page after page very carefully so as not to miss anything.
After hearing Xue Ning's words, the girl firmly believed that the real life of the Vampire race was behind those hills.
To be honest, Fu Xie Lan wants to curse herself, because how can she forget all things related to the vampire race? Whereas she had read about it.
If it was like this, they had all just wasted energy just to ask the few Vampires that they had met.
"Alright, let's go there," said Fu Xie Lan making those who heard it confused.
"What do you mean, Xie Lan? Over there? Where?" Xue Ning asked with furrowed brows.
"Behind the hill, you saw earlier.
