An Xiaoning was rather appalled and frightened by such a mindset. It seemed as if women here were just slaves to their husbands.
"Sis Fei Niao, could you tell me about what's going on in this town?"
Fei Niao stood up to lock the door before sitting down again. She then said softly, "We're locals who were born and bred here. No one dares to spout any nonsense about what's going on in this town, but those guardians that I told you about earlier, they don't eat food at all."
"What do they eat, then?" An Xiaoning asked.
"Blood. Nothing else except blood. Several people end up losing their lives on the guardians' territory every month. I was thinking that your mother is probably dead by now. You, your husband, and your brother should stop trying your luck. I'm only telling you this on account of the money you've given me. Furthermore, I don't want the three of you to die here either. Sis, stop searching and go home."
