Free Web NovelChapter 1328: Chapter 1322
Mu Chen and Nolan Zhuyun on the side were left speechless.
Xin Lin, even in such a remote wilderness, knew how to promote her Chu’s Restaurant.
But then again, the other party are mercenaries, and mercenaries travel all over, spreading information quickly. Perhaps Chu’s Restaurant’s name will spread across the mainland.
After a few mercenaries ate the Ultimate Lingxiu Buns, they were indeed full of praise.
After eating, it was late at night. Xin Lin and the two women were preparing to rest, but saw a few mercenaries remaining vigilant, with their swords and hammers at hand.
"Big brothers, I see you all are in such a rush, staying up so late. Aren’t you supposed to be traveling tomorrow?"
Xin Lin asked curiously.
"Little girl, you have no idea. Recently, the roads around here have been unsafe. It’s said there’s often a female ghost that blocks the way at night. That female ghost is extremely powerful. If you so much as speak a word she doesn’t like, you’ll be swallowed, not even bones left."
These mercenaries were on a mission to Fuzhou, and after hearing the news, they’ve been very cautious, traveling during the day and not daring to rest at night.
"Ridiculous. This is the territory of Fengdong. Other areas might be uncertain, but ghosts absolutely cannot appear here."
Mu Chen said coldly.
Moreover, he had been on the lookout, and there was simply no Ghost Energy around.
"Pretty boy, what do you know? We’ve walked more roads than you’ve crossed bridges. So what about Fengdong? That female ghost is much more powerful than the people of Fengdong."
The few mercenaries, deep down, looked down on the weak and shaky Mu Chen.
"What did you say? It’s just a female ghost. Any direct descendant from Fengdong could easily kill it."
Mu Chen was furious.
He couldn’t stand others looking down on Fengdong.
"Absurd, they say about seven or eight people from Fengdong have already been killed or injured because of her. Easy to kill, huh."
The mercenaries said irritably.
Murong Ziyue and Mu Chen were both stunned by what the mercenaries said.
"Exactly, I heard there are people from Fengdong patrolling nearby, but to no avail. The female ghost still eats people just for saying a wrong word."
The few mercenaries talked about the female ghost, all feeling a chill down their spine.
They have traveled extensively across the mainland and had seen all sorts of strange things, yet they were still spooked.
While they were speaking, suddenly a scream was heard ahead.
In the dead of night, that scream was extremely piercing.
"Not good, something happened! It must be the female ghost."
The few mercenaries were startled and quickly rushed in that direction.
There was Ghost Energy. Xin Lin’s expression changed as well.
The Ghost Energy was strong.
Could it be...
"Let’s go check it out."
Mu Chen couldn’t stand it any longer. He exchanged a glance with Nolan Zhuyun, and the two of them leapt into the darkness.
"Xin Lin, let’s go check it out too."
Murong Ziyue also couldn’t stand still.
The proliferation of ghostly monsters in the area of Fengdong was something that would never have happened before.
The night was deep and dark. When Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue arrived, Mu Chen and Nolan Zhuyun both looked grim.
The few mercenaries were also looking at each other in dismay.
On the ground, there was nothing but a pool of blood and torn clothing; not even a bone could be seen, just as the mercenaries had described, not a single bone was left.
"It really is a ghost; look, there aren’t even any footprints around."
The few mercenaries were the first to arrive, and when they did, this was already the scene they found.
"It’s a descendant of Fengdong. Judging by the clothing, these were a few brothers from within the East Court."
Mu Chen, looking at the blood-stained, torn clothing on the ground, had a face clouded with gloom.
