Free Web NovelChapter 1321: Chapter 1315
In the desolate wilderness, strange occurrences often mean the presence of a demon.
The sound of the pipa outside was very pleasant, which only made it seem even more eerie.
Gui Hu, however, was calm and unflustered, his face full of composure.
In the darkness, the sound of the pipa was continuous, sometimes like the trickling of a stream, sometimes like the unending clatter of horse hooves, or the patter of sudden rain on the eaves. Listening at night, it also resembled the affectionate whispers of a woman, making one stop and listen.
In the night, a woman stood in front of the carriage, dressed in a pitiable white gown.
She had a face like a silver disk, slightly upturned fox eyes of pale gold, with a slender yet graceful figure, and she was draped in a thin veil.
A gust of wind blew by, lifting the veil, revealing a pair of long, fair, beautiful legs. Her waist was slim enough to hold with one hand, and in her hands, she held a pipa, playing and singing.
Those eyes, that song, were mesmerizing to both humans and beasts alike.
Even the ghost beasts pulling the carriage couldn’t help but slow down, seemingly entranced by the song.
Gui Hu sat in the carriage, not dismounting.
"Sir, why don’t you get off the carriage and listen to me sing a tune."
The pipa’s sound stopped, and the woman sighed.
Whoosh—
A gust of wind surged from inside the carriage, striking the ghost beast pulling it.
The ghost beast, in pain, ran wildly.
"Ouch."
The woman cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
Her eyes filled with emotion, tinged with some reproach.
"Sir, you ran into me."
The ghost beasts in front stopped again.
The woman was delighted, eagerly looking at the beast carriage, waiting for someone to come down.
This ghost chariot obviously exuded an extraordinary aura, definitely not an ordinary ghost; she intended to probe.
If it was powerful, they could join forces to seize the Heaven and Earth Devouring Spirit Array. If weaker than her, even better; she could directly swallow it to replenish her Ghost Essence.
Suddenly, the ghost beasts turned around, and the carriage dashed towards the female ghost.
The woman’s expression turned to shock, and the chariot unhesitatingly trampled over her.
The woman’s figure suddenly dispersed.
"Where did this fool come from, unafraid of death, refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit, daring to run wild on my turf!"
The woman reappeared, her eyes filled with resentment, now turned into hatred.
Clearly, her enchanting music amounted to nothing in the ears of the other party.
The thin veil on her body was replaced with a black Flowing Cloud Robe, around her surged Ghost Energy, and the pipa in her hands had changed in form.
The pipa was carved from human bone, with strings fastened by tendons, and a red glow emanated from the strings, stained by blood.
"Get lost."
On the carriage, the man coldly uttered a single word.
"Impudent!"
The woman was enraged, with a wave of her fair hand, several strings of the pipa moved in unison.
A clangorous sound erupted, and many bolts of lightning shot from the pipa towards the ghost chariot.
With a boom, the ghost chariot exploded, shattered into pieces in an instant.
The woman showed a joyous expression.
But soon, the smile on her face faded away.
After the chariot exploded, there was nothing inside.
Where was the person?
The woman was shocked.
Suddenly, a chill ran down her spine.
A strangling pain wrapped her neck, her enchanting eyes filled with terror.
A serpent entwined her, binding her instantly.
Behind her was the man’s icy voice.
"Thunder Fox Clan."
The woman’s body moved slightly, and under the effect of the Evil Snake, her true form was revealed, a vixen with snow-white fur, but a lightning-shaped mark on her forehead.
