Chapter 467 I Want My Mother
He Yi ordered his soldiers to surround the area and search it thoroughly, but the area was not very large and the terrain was flat and open, so it could be seen at a glance and there was no way to hide anyone.
After searching for a while, I still couldn't find anyone.
He Yi's expression was rather grim. Ye Qing'an was someone Yi Yun Kui wanted, and she was also the eldest daughter of the Ye family, yet this had happened right under his nose...
He Yi, with a sullen face, circled the carriage several times, and carefully searched under the carriage twice.
But they still gained nothing.
Shen Qingdai, who was holding Eleven beside her, bit her lip and looked up: "General He, this matter is too strange. There's no way a person could just disappear into thin air. Even if my young lady is now a Supreme Being, she doesn't have such an ability. I've been thinking about whether this is possible..."
He Yi suddenly raised his head: "What's possible?"
Shen Qingdai bit her lip: "Besides ordinary illusions, teleportation, and summoning spells, what other spells can make someone suddenly disappear?"
"some."
The one who answered Shen Qingdai was not He Yi, but Eleven, who was nestled in Shen Qingdai's arms.
He Yi and Shen Qingdai's gazes both fell on Eleven. Shen Qingdai quickly tugged at Eleven's sleeve gently: "Young Master, you can't say such things carelessly."
“It really happened.” Eleven had just cried, and her eyes were still a little red, but her gaze was determined: “When Mother was in the manor before, something similar happened once. She was walking along and suddenly disappeared into thin air.”
He Yi and Shen Qingdai both looked at Eleven with astonishment.
"When did this happen? What were the circumstances?" He Yi looked at Eleven's youthful face, then turned directly to Shen Qingdai: "Aren't you Miss Ye's personal maid? How could you not know about something so important?"
Qingdai shook her head: "This servant, this servant's father passed away a few days ago. This servant sold herself on the street to bury her father, and that's how I met Miss Ye. Miss Ye gave me money so that I could bury my father, and that's how I stayed by Miss Ye's side and became her maid."
"Miss Ye brought me along this time because she said that none of the servants in the Ye household can be trusted, and she dared not bring anyone else..."
He Yi wasn't interested in how she became Ye Qing'an's maid, and instead looked at Eleven: "Is what you said true? Do you remember what happened back then?"
“Of course I remember. I don’t remember the exact time, but it happened about a month ago. My mother was taking a walk in the back garden of the mansion. As she was walking, she suddenly disappeared into thin air. We searched for her for a long, long time, but we couldn’t find her. Then, after a night, or I forget how long, my mother came back.”
"Do you know what your mother encountered, and why she suddenly disappeared?"
Eleven frowned: "It's an illusion, a very special kind of illusion. Mother said it was woven by some kind of person at night, and it can trap people inside. If you can't get out, you might be trapped and die in that illusion."
Upon hearing Eleven's description, He Yi and Shen Qingdai both realized what was happening and exclaimed almost in unison, "Nightmare's illusion?"
Eleven's eyes widened, and she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's the name. Anyway, that's where my mother entered that illusion..."
He Yi gripped his sword tightly. If it was Nightshade's illusion, then it would indeed make sense.
However, if it really is a night vision, then things will get complicated.
"Your mother entered the Nightshade's illusion before, and came out safely? How did she get out?"
A look of confusion flashed across Eleven's face: "When Mother comforted me before, she told me something, but it's been so long that I've forgotten a bit. It seems that the Night Demon who wove the illusion revealed a flaw in the illusion, which Mother saw through. Then Mother felt that something was wrong with the illusion, that it was invading her consciousness, so she killed everyone in the illusion... Then she found the weaver of the illusion and killed him too, and then Mother came out."
Eleven scratched his head: "Mother said that although the Night Demon's illusion is very realistic, making it impossible for people to distinguish between reality and illusion once they are trapped in it, the people in the illusion are real. They won't resist if you kill them; they will simply disappear. As for the Night Demon, although she is very skilled at weaving illusions, she has no spiritual power. As long as we don't get lost in the illusion and find the Night Demon, we will win."
He Yi pursed his lips: "That's good. If your mother can come out of Night Enchantress's illusion once, then she should be able to come out a second time, right?"
Eleven blinked: "But last time Mother said she was able to recognize it because the Night Demon who wove the illusion wasn't familiar with some of the people inside, leaving a flaw that Mother noticed. What if this Night Demon is more powerful this time...?"
He Yi fell silent for a long time before saying, "If it's a Night Demon's illusion, then we can only wait. There's no other way. We can only hope that your mother can tell this time that the people in the illusion are fake."
Upon hearing this, Shiyi's face was clearly filled with panic.
"I don't want anything to happen to Mother." Eleven grabbed Qingdai's hand, raised her face to look at He Yi: "General He, I've heard that Night Demon doesn't look like an ordinary person. Could we find the Night Demon who weaves the illusion, kill him, and then rescue Mother?"
He Yi shook his head: "After the Night Demon creates the illusion, it will also enter the illusion itself. Perhaps the Night Demon was nearby just now, but now that the illusion has been activated, we have no way to find it."
Eleven couldn't help but burst into tears again: "I want my mother!"
"Young Master, don't worry." Qingdai was a little at a loss. "Miss will definitely be alright. Miss is now a Supreme Being. The mere illusion of Night Enchantress can't trap her at all."
"really?"
"Really." Qingdai gritted her teeth: "Young master, why don't you go and sleep in the carriage first? Miss will be back when you wake up."
"Alright, I'll trust you one more time. If I wake up and don't see my mother, I'll never trust you again."
Qingdai led Eleven into the carriage, while He Yi stood there with a frown for a while before finally leaving.
As soon as He Yi left, a man dressed as a soldier in armor emerged from the shadows of a nearby carriage. The man narrowed his eyes and murmured, "Nightmare's illusion?"
The man frowned, raised his hand, and drew a summoning circle...
