Chapter 1364: Traces of the Battlefield
Under Gu Fan’s suggestion, the two men changed course and headed to another small town. They stayed there for a day to eat, sleep, and rest before setting off again.
Gu Fan’s plan was simple. Since they needed to ensure their identities were not exposed, they absolutely could not approach the destination from the direction of Dark City. Instead, they would take an alternative route, which required a slight detour.
Li initially agreed, but he didn’t expect the detour to be so extensive, and he instantly became disheartened.
"Better safe than sorry! You wouldn’t want to go back and get scolded by Catherine, would you?" Gu Fan’s words made sense, and if he and Li were to expose their identities, causing Catherine to be unable to account for them, it would be more than just a scolding.
Upon reaching another small town, Gu Fan saw a very tall building severely damaged, and there were also signs of destruction on the nearby streets, as if the area had suffered an attack.
Initially, Gu Fan thought that the area might have been attacked by vampiric creatures, but when he saw a deep fist imprint on the wall, he realized it was definitely human power.
Who could have smashed such an imprint on the wall? In Gu Fan’s mind, there were a few possibilities: the big boss, Zhuo Hang, or the hunter. As for Xue Wang, Lord Xiong, and Mo Yun, it was unlikely they would come here to have a fierce fight.
Zhuo Hang had entered the Dark Primitive Mountain forest with Gu Fan, so he was ruled out first. The hunter generally used a sword, and there were no sword marks in the area of the fight, so he was also ruled out, leaving only the big boss as a possibility.
Thus, curious, Gu Fan asked nearby people about what had happened here in the battlefield area.
