章 67: Chapter 64: Memorial Ceremony

After solving the issue with the Bear Demon, Li Hao noticed some activity inside a nearby cave.

When he sent his Divine Soul to investigate, he saw seven disheveled survivors, men and women, all aged between twenty to thirty years old, with no children or old people among them.

The seven were shackled by their hands and feet, with the other end of the chains threaded through a slit in a large rock. Unless someone could drag the rock away, there was no way to free themselves.

Having seemingly experienced some terrifying ordeal, all seven had expressions of bewilderment and fear on their faces; some were already numb, lost in a daze.

Li Hao sighed inwardly as he commanded a stone to break the chains, setting them free.

But even as the shackles on their limbs were gone, it seemed they were still bound by other chains.

After a brief moment of being stunned, they looked around blankly, still standing in place, with no attempt to flee.
