Mo Fan had stood in front of the Thundercat statue many times. He recognized the face and posture of the Eldest Granny. It seemed as though the ancient statue had come to life. It was like a guardian of the moonless night that was vigilant and hostile to all foreign things. When it looked down at people, its majestic warning sounded in their minds even though it did not open its mouth.
The cry that Mo Fan heard was the same as well. The cry sounded in his mind clearly, and it touched the deepest part of his soul. He got goosebumps all over. The cat's meow had frightened his very soul.
Mo Fan took a few steps back.
"Meow!"
Eldest Granny's appearance changed. She was a woman, but she was growing a silver beard. Her chin became pointy, and her ears grew longer.
'Could this be the secret about how the ancient statues protected Mingwu Ancient City?' thought Mo Fan.
