Capítulo 257: Chapter 256 Lama

The sky had completely darkened, and they took out their green fluorescent stones, illuminating everything around them. Li Huowang did not call for a halt, and everyone's expression was tense as they continued to hurry along.

Gradually, only a thin crescent moon began to rise and hang in the sky, casting silver light upon the earth.

Li Huowang, standing on the roof of the cart, occasionally looked back. He realized that the black mass he had noticed before had mysteriously vanished.

"Gone? What exactly was that? What attracted it? Was it me? Or... was it the newborn child?"

His expression flickered uncertainly as he speculated wildly.

Just then, Li Huowang suddenly felt the ox cart stop beneath him. "Don't stop! Keep going!"

But unusually, his command did not make the ox cart start moving again.

When Li Huowang turned his head to look ahead, he finally understood why they had stopped—the black mass that had disappeared was now blocking their path!
