"That's the settlement of the Water Absorption tribe," Zhu Mangqi explained.

"Something seems off; I can't sense their breath," Shen Luo swept his Divine Sense over and found that the settlement inside seemed empty of any living creatures.
"Forget it; let's not worry about that for now. Let's find the Water-Fire Beading Pill first," Zhu Mangqi stopped Shen Luo, who was about to investigate further.
