“What is the use of putting her in a mental hospital? She will come out soon . ” Ling Yan scorned Ming Shu’s method .
“I just want to anger her . ” I have no other intentions . Really .
Ling Yan: “…” Crazy . Will she feel uncomfortable if she doesn’t anger someone for one day?
Ling Yan wanted to walk toward Ming Shu . However, the next second, he stopped and disappeared on the spot .
Ming Shu: “…” Why did you run away so quickly? I didn’t say that I wanted to hit you .
Ming Shu tilted her head and looked at the place he stood at . Ripples appeared in her eyes . They vanished really quickly .
Ming Shu took out some candies and ate them while slowly floating out of the alley .
The alley resumed its peacefulness .
After a few minutes, Ling Yan appeared again . What was different was the Yin Qi around him was heavier and kept swarming around his body, wanting to break away from him .
When he appeared, the alley became a different environment altogether . It was eerie, scary, and sinister…
Ling Yan clenched his hands tightly . The Yin Qi was suppressed a little, but the next second, it exploded and consumed him totally .
At this moment, all the Taoist masters looked at Dong Hua City .
In Hell, the king of Hell, who was leaning over his desk and writing furiously, looked up into the air . He seemed to be able to see Dong Hua City from the space in front of him .
The whole of Dong Hua City was engulfed in Yin Qi . The Yin Qi came very suddenly . No one was prepared for it .
Normal people would think that the sky changed and it got colder .
For the others, their faces changed . How can such a scary Yin Qi appear without any warning?
Okay, it was not without any warning… It appeared once before, but only for an instant . Everyone investigated it and found nothing amiss .
Ming Shu stood among the crowd and answered a call from the king of Hell .
“Find Ling Yan and bring him back to Hell no matter what . Don’t allow him to fall into the hands of any human… or ghost . ”
The king of Hell’s voice sounded very serious . Based on An Ge’s memory, she never heard the king of Hell speak like this before .
Ming Shu looked in the direction she came from .
That way?
“An Ge?”
“Why do you think that I can bring him back?” Based on this situation, it was not an easy job . What did the Host have that made the king of Hell have such high hopes for her . Most importantly, there were no snacks given as payment .
Such a shame .
“You are the closest to Dong Hua City . No matter what, you must give it a try . If you really can’t handle it, no other ghost can do it . ”
The king of Hell expressed himself clearly . He only put faith in her powers .
“… Okay,” Ming Shu answered and hung up . She turned around and walked back .
Yin Qi was wreaking havoc in the alley . Ghost shadows would flash past in the Yin Qi and they screamed and floated inside . They looked as though they wanted to escape this place, but were restrained by a certain force .
She could vaguely make out a shadow standing in the middle .
The ghost shadows swirled around the black shadow as if they hated the black shadow and wanted to tear it apart .
The world inside the alley was totally different from outside .
Ming Shu took one step into the alley .
Even though she was a ghost, she still felt a shudder from within her when she stepped into the alley . All the ghost shadows floated around her with evil intentions, looking for a chance to strike .
Luckily, she was a ghost and not their natural enemy, a Taoist master . Ming Shu still had the upper hand . She rushed toward the center of the alley .
When she got near, she saw what what happening inside clearly .
Ling Yan was not standing . He half-knelt on the ground . Lots of ghost shadows were surrounding him . From afar, it looked like a man standing upright .
“Don’t come over!” Ling Yan shouted in a hoarse voice . “Turn around and leave . ”
“The king of Hell asked me to take you back . ” Ming Shu smiled as though she didn’t see his painful state .
“Get away!”
Ling Yan suddenly looked up .
It was still the same face . However, Ming Shu saw the bloodthirsty look in his eyes . It was staring at her like she was an obstacle and must be destroyed .
He picked up his body . The ghost shadows laughed hideously around him in shrill voices .
Don’t go over .
Ling Yan wanted to stop, but he couldn’t . He was forced to walk over . Every step he took, the Yin Qi got stronger . The ground started turning to ice .
Don’t go over…
No…
Ling Yan stopped and shouted at Ming Shu, “Go away!”
Ming Shu didn’t move . Her mouth didn’t even twitch . She wanted Ling Yan to kill her and then she would beat him until his own parents couldn’t recognize him .
Ling Yan wanted to make Ming Shu leave urgently, but she didn’t move . Ling Yan was so angry he wanted to kill her .
When he lost control of his body, Ling Yan felt scared . He didn’t want anything to happen to her . This emotion came suddenly and was very strong .
Is there any way…
Kill her .
She is your obstacle…
Kill her .
Kill…
No!
She is not my obstacle . I do not want to kill her . Not me…
He never wanted to kill her…
Ling Yan shook his head . He tried to take control of his body again, but failed .
“Go… go away…” Ling Yan squeezed the words out with much effort . Why is she not running away? Is she crazy?!
You always run away so fast . Why are you not running away now!
I don’t need you to stand here!
The person in front of him got nearer . He saw his hand reaching out . His nails were exceptionally long . Time seemed to stop . Every second felt really long .
The claw passed through the girl’s chest .
There was no warmth .
Only coldness .
She saw the girl’s smile getting wider like the sun at dawn, shining on him and stinging his eyes . The scene in front of him blurred to nothing .
Hualala—
Ling Yan sat up suddenly . His hands were bound and it prevented him from doing anything drastic .
He looked down . Metal chains were attached to all four of his limbs and he lay on his back . The chains stretched into the darkness and he couldn’t see where they ended . The only light came from above him . He didn’t know where the light came from, but it was hung on top of him .
He knew where this was .
The 19th level of Hell .
In this place, time stopped . There was no sound . There were no living things . There was only eternal darkness .
Ling Yan gazed into the darkness in a daze .
He killed her .
Yes .
He killed her .
Ling Yan accepted the truth calmly .
After some time, he heard a sound . It was very light, just like the sound of metal objects clinking against each other, ding ding dang dang . In the quiet darkness, the sound seemed especially clear .
No ghost would come to the 19th level .
Ling Yan turned his gaze and looked into the darkness . What will come out? He smiled . No matter what it was, it would be a stepping stone for his escape .
“You seemed very energetic . ”
A familiar voice . A familiar tone . A familiar figure .
Ming Shu walked out from the darkness with a ring of keys . That sound from before came from the keys hitting each other .
Ling Yan suddenly deflated like a balloon . Internally, he was elated . She was all right .
“You…” Ling Yan opened his mouth . His voice was so hoarse it seemed out of tune .
Ming Shu took the ring of keys and came closer to him .
She tilted her head and gave a harmless smile . “The king of Hell asked me to kill you . ”
Ling Yan was momentarily stunned . He slowly looked down and then gave an acknowledgment after a while . “Okay . ”
Ming Shu waved the keys in her hand . “Have you forgotten?”
