The journey was still very peaceful . It was just that Xie Hui talked too much .

When the car drove into Dong Hua City, Ming Shu winded down the car window . The night wind blew in from the window and stroked against Xie Hui as it flowed past Ming Shu . It was cold and Xie Hui shivered .
When they first entered Dong Hua City, the road was deserted . There were no other cars in sight .
In the distance, there was a fog . It got thicker steadily .
Ming Shu’s mouth curled up slowly . Here it is .
Xie Hui seemed to have noticed something too . He held the mahogany sword in his hand and looked at the fog in front of him vigilantly .
When the car entered the fog, the scenery in front of Ming Shu changed . Xie Hui disappeared too .
She was standing in a place that looked like an old city . The buildings around her were all very low and the people were wearing clothes from ancient days . Everyone walked in the same direction as though there was something interesting over there .
Ming Shu stood there and didn’t move . She looked into the air . “Let me give you one chance . Show yourself . ”
Nothing changed . The people still walked in a single direction .
“Very well . ”
She lifted her hand and drew a circle in the air . Ying Qi gathered in the circle and the images started vanishing . It seemed as though the energy that was maintaining the scene was being sucked out .
Darkness struck and engulfed Ming Shu .
A red, female ghost suddenly appeared and pounced on Ming Shu viciously .

Ming Shu just raised her hand and easily grabbed the wrist of the red ghost . A wisp of Ying Qi tangled toward her and the red ghost groaned . “Ah!”
Ming Shu slammed her onto the ground . The red ghost’s head was detached . It rolled twice and stopped somewhere nearby .
She stared with wide eyes at Ming Shu, unable to believe that she lost so easily .
The red ghost was not convinced . She picked herself up without her head and struck at Ming Shu again .
Ming Shu raised her leg and kicked her . The red ghost flew out once again and couldn’t move after that . She felt like a huge rock was on top of her .
“You… what are you?” the head of the female ghost said . Blood was flowing down her face, but her voice was shaking . She had felt Ming Shu’s power from the two blows just now .
She was not human, but she was different from the ghosts she met before…
Ming Shu let her go disgustedly . “Pick up your head and put it back . You look so scary . ”
The female ghost: “…” Who was the one who made her lose her head!
The red ghost felt herself being released . She thought about it and decided not to retaliate . She went on all fours and climbed over to pick up her head .
“Clean the blood on your face . It’s making me lose my appetite . ”
The red ghost shivered in fear . Appetite… was she planning to eat her?
The red ghost wanted to run away . She turned around and immediately bumped into a ball of… some ice cold thing . Her entire ghostly body fell onto the ground again .

The red ghost was totally convinced now . She shivered as she wiped the blood off her face and revealed a delicate and pretty visage . However, because she was an evil ghost, her forehead was filled with evil aura and it didn’t look harmonious .
Ming Shu was not afraid that she would run away again . She took out a fruit and bit into it . “Did you snatch all the spirits?”
The red ghost was afraid of Ming Shu, but her gaze flew around furiously . The next second, a cold hand wrapped around her neck . “Think carefully before you answer me . My mood is bad right now . I came here in the middle of the night . ”
Ming Shu took another bite of her fruit .
The red ghost felt that there was not much energy in the hand that was around her neck . Yet, she didn’t have any strength to run away . Just now, she felt a scary aura emanating from the person in front of her .
The red ghost shivered fervently . She shook her head with much effort and then nodded her head again .
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows . “Is that a yes or no . ”
The red ghost nodded .
“But I was being instigated by another ghost,” the red ghost suddenly cried, without tears . “He said that if I didn’t listen to him, he would eat me . I don’t want to die . ”
“You’re already dead . ” Ming Shu told her the truth .
“Who is he?”
The red ghost almost wanted to shake her head off . “I don’t know . Every time he appeared, it would be in a ball of black . I couldn’t see his face . I don’t even know if he is really a guy or a girl . Master, I really didn’t do it on purpose . I was forced . Please let me go . ”
“When will he appear? How will he communicate with you?”
The red female ghost cried, “He always appeared suddenly . When I get the spirits, I will place them at different locations . I don’t know how he collects them either . ”
“Do you know that you are taking Hell’s things?”
The red ghost was shocked . She shook her head after a while . “I didn’t know, I… I was always nearby . My consciousness was not clear and I was always in a daze . One month ago, I met him and he changed me into who I am now . ”
“You mean that one month ago, you were not an evil ghost?”
The red ghost nodded . “I am not like this anyway… ah…”
Her eyes were almost falling out and pain caused her face to turn hideous . Blood flowed down uncontrollably .
“Who are you lying to!? Tell me, who is the mastermind!” Do you think I am as naive as a three-year-old little ghost?
“I am speaking the truth . I never lied to you . ”
“It is legal to kill an evil ghost,” Ming Shu said softly and smiled with her eyes . Killing a ghost meant nothing to her!
I can kill a ghost!
The red ghost groaned . “I really don’t know who he is . I’m just greedy for the power he can give me . He even said that he would help me get revenge . That was why I helped him . I know nothing else . ”
The female ghost should be telling the truth this time .
Ming Shu let her go and the red ghost distanced herself from Ming Shu . Ming Shu raised her hand and went to capture her . The female ghost kneeled down immediately . “Master, although I don’t know who he is, I can recognize him if I see him . No, if he comes close, I can detect him . Master, I am telling the truth . ”
She didn’t want to die .
No way!
Ming Shu thought about it . “Will you run away?”
“I won’t dare to . I won’t dare to run away, Master . ” The red ghost shook her head vigorously . Why would she dare to run now!
Ming Shu smiled and nodded . “Yes, if you dare to run, I will break your legs . ”
The female ghost: “…” She could put her legs back even if she broke them .
Ming Shu ate the last of her fruit and smiled even brighter . “The legs I break might not be able to be put back . ”
I am different from other ghosts .
The red ghost didn’t dare to have any other thoughts . She stood obediently in front of Ming Shu .
“There is another person in my car . Bring him back . ”
The darkness around Ming Shu disappeared and she came back to the road she was at . She was now standing in the middle of the road . The car was stopped nearby and its lights were on . The lights shone on a haggard figure who was swinging a mahogany sword haphazardly .
Xie Hui seemed to have felt something . He turned around and pointed the mahogany sword in Ming Shu’s direction . He shouted, “You little ghost, how dare you scheme against me!”
