When the voice came again, I looked up at last and glared angrily at the insolent apparition before me, and I roared with all my might. This time, I finally heard my own voice. "I'm Isrina! Daughter of the moon god!" When the ghosts heard my roar, they sang, and made a shrill, frightened sound, like some strange hissing. There was a mixture of fear and alarm. "I, daughter of the moon god and descendant of the witches of the wolf clan, order you to return to the abyss! Go back!" Suddenly all the ghosts retreated, as if fleeing for their lives.

This is the ghost country, which lies in Usunhi'yi, the Darkening Land in the west. The people chose seven men to make the journey. The Little Men told the seven to take a box and told each man to carry a sourwood rod a handbreadth long. When they got to Tsugina'i, the Little Men explained, they would find all the ghosts at a dance.

Furious, he went to get the door, only to see two elderly figures standing at the doorway. They… were my parents. My elderly parents couldn't help shivering from the cold wind while struggling to get their bearings due to the thin air as they stood in the base camp of the snow mountain, which was 17,060 feet above sea level.

I keep having this odd feeling that something's happened to her, so we decided to visit her."

The distance between the two places didn’t seem that far, but the small town seemed like heaven compared to an ordinary place on land.

“Found this on the guy’s belt after he fell. It’s a tracker. Looks like it’s broadcasting a location.” “Where does it lead?” Maya asked. Toby checked the screen. “Somewhere deep in the mountains.

That’s a heartbeat. Human.” A jolt ran through Maya. “My grandfather.” David frowned. “Maya, he’s dead. We saw the papers.”

They had no idea what their First Elder was planning. The Ghost-wailing Hill was located deep within the Miasma Mountain Range. It was the most terrifying, dangerous, and peculiar place with miasma so thick that one couldn't see the sky. The miasma was of the ancient variety and had claimed the lives of countless cultivators, including some Grand Completion Realm cultivators, since.

I nodded gently in agreement. “Is there any girl you are chasing in the big city?” “No, Mummy. I didn’t go there to chase girls” I responded sounding pissed at the sudden interrogation. “Good!” she hedged for a few seconds, then resume in a more courteous tone “Because that mermaid after you could be an angry spiritual husband of a girl that is jealous, thinking you want to take his wife in this physical world.
