Chapter 955: Chapter 954: Think Twice
Although the Cloud Fort is in Shengyun Town, it is not located in the town itself, but rather halfway up a Cloud Mountain, sprawling across the area, with buildings scattered like chess pieces in a charming arrangement.
From afar, it looks like a large village, except that these buildings include wooden houses as well as brick and tile palaces, more ornate than ordinary small villages.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Wufu and his group saw a wooden staircase winding upwards, already filled with many people slowly making their way up.
"So many people, do you think Yun Feiyang might seize the opportunity to disguise himself and sneak out among them?" Wufu squinted and asked.
"Hard to say, itâs a big opportunity," Ah Jiu replied. "But if you can think of it, the Cloud Fortress Master can likely think of it too. Perhaps theyâre using this chance to force him out, and once he comes out, whether he falls into a Heavenly Net is something only the people of Cloud Fort would know."
Wufu chuckled awkwardly and said as he ascended, "With so many people, is Cloud Fort really so generous as to let everyone in?"
"I suppose there might be some conditions," Ah Jiu said.
"Then letâs go up and find out," he said as they walked along, arriving at the entrance to Cloud Fort, where disciples of Cloud Fort naturally waited. When they saw Wufu and his group, they were taken aback for a moment.
Although the group couldnât be described as exceptionally handsome, their looks and demeanor somewhat differed from the Green Forest folks who had arrived. These people seemed more like they came from noble families.
Especially the young man in a black robe standing there, exuding an aura of nobility that was impossible to ignore.
Beside the black-robed young man was a young master in blue, looking quite harmless and clever, making the group seem as if they came for sightseeing.
"Who might these distinguished individuals be?"
Wufu smiled, took out the folding fan from his hand, and said, "In Jianghu, Iâm known as Young Master Squirrel. I came to join the fun after hearing about your castleâs open invitation to heroes."
Upon hearing this, the Cloud Fort disciple furrowed his brows and asked, "Does Young Master Squirrel know what our fortâs invitation is about?"
"Yes, I do. Itâs about capturing traitors in the Cloud Realm, isnât it?" Wufu looked as if asking whatâs the problem.
Is this nonchalant tone because he doesnât know what kind of existence the Cloud Realm is?
The Cloud Fort disciple said, "Young Master Squirrel, do you know what kind of existence our Cloud Realm is? Even martial arts experts might not be able to come out safely." Something came to his mind, making his face darken for a moment, but he still plucked up his spirits and advised, "So if youâre thinking of entering the Cloud Realm just to watch the excitement, I urge you to reconsider." Saying this, he eyed Wufuâs slender frame up and down.
With such age and physique, he probably canât even fight himself, entering the Cloud Realm is seeking death.
"Are you worried about us?" Wufu smiled and said, "Thank you, but the Cloud Fortâs Cloud Realm has long been famous. I really want to see it this time. Who knows, maybe with a stroke of luck, I might emerge unscathed!"
Seeing this, the Cloud Fort disciple didnât persuade further and made way, "Then, Young Master, please take care."
Wufu bowed his hands, and together with Ah Jiu and the others, gracefully entered the Cloud Fort.
Seeing this group walk away, that Cloud Fort disciple sighed. Another disciple said, "Senior Brother Fei Qing, why are you bothering with them so much? Since theyâre here, it means theyâre mentally prepared." Glancing at the group, he snorted, "Let them run into some obstacles, itâs good for them."
The disciple referred to as Senior Brother Fei Qing said, "I just think itâs a bit of a pity."
The younger disciple curled his lips, wondering whatâs there to pity, feeling his senior brother is being sentimental.
