Chapter 10

Fortunately, the car stopped when it was only a meter away from the river.

The few of them heaved a sigh of relief. Luo Yong plopped down with cold sweat on his forehead.

“Master, what was that just now? Could it be…”

Shen Chun confirmed his thoughts. “It’s a ghost, but it’s just a little ghost. The real evil spirit hasn’t appeared yet.”

“It’s actually just a little ghost?” If not for Shen Chun, the three of them would have been killed by this so-called little ghost today.

The driver panted heavily in his seat. He didn’t even dare to move his feet, for fear of stepping on the accelerator again.

“I-I don’t know what happened just now. I kept wanting to step on the accelerator, but later on, I couldn’t control my body.”

“You were possessed.” Shen Chun threw three simple Disaster Reduction Talismans to him and said, “Go home and burn them to ashes. Then, drink them.”

The human body couldn’t withstand the corrosion of ghost energy. Without these talismans, the driver would become seriously ill after he returned.

“Where’s mine?” Luo Yong reached out and looked at Shen Chun eagerly. “Master, give me some too.”

Shen Chun handed the talismans to Luo Yong. After thinking for a moment, she handed a few more to Fu Shi. “The evil spirits are targeting me. The few of you have already sent me to the east of the city, so you can go back the way you came. Remember, don’t look back no matter what you hear along the way. When you get home, place a brazier on the east side.”

Luo Yong was afraid, but he couldn’t watch Shen Chun take the risk alone.

“Master, why don’t you wait a little longer? I’ll call a few more masters over. There’s strength in numbers.”

“There’s no need. I can deal with a mere evil spirit.”

“We’ll go with you.” After Fu Shi made the decision, he instructed the driver, “Continue driving.”

They didn’t know what danger they would encounter on the way back. If Shen Chun wasn’t around, the three of them wouldn’t be able to resolve it alone. Instead of that, it was better to go together and win Shen Chun’s favor.

Fu Shi felt as if his worldview had been changed, but his long-standing habits still enabled him to quickly make a decision. Shen Chun was very useful, so he couldn’t let go of her.

However, for safety purposes, he also asked Luo Yong to contact those masters from Changqing Temple.

“Miss Shen.” His gaze was calm as he said, “The lives of the three of us depend on you.”

The driver took a deep breath and started the car again. However, the closer they got to the factory, the darker the sky became. In the end, they couldn’t see anything at all.

“Master, what should we do now?”

“Go 500 meters south, turn left, and go straight for another 1,000 meters.” Shen Chun took out his compass for navigation. Ten minutes later, they finally arrived at the factory.

It was dark all around, and only the sky was bright. However, the ground was covered in sticky blood. There were only a few branches left on the surrounding trees, and they grew twistedly, like struggling souls.

Luo Yong swallowed hard and was so frightened that he could barely stand.

“Are we really going in?”

Shen Chun handed the three of them talismans and said, “The Golden Light Talisman can save your lives.”

Then, she raised her right hand and a long whip appeared out of thin air.

This was a divine weapon from her previous life, the Thunder God Whip. This whip was extremely powerful. Even an evil spirit with a thousand years of cultivation couldn’t withstand the power of ten whips from it.

Since this evil spirit dared to capture her brother and plot to kill her, it shouldn’t blame her for being ruthless.

When Shen Chi opened his eyes, he realized that he was locked in a dark house and was surrounded by the cries of children. Soon, he was so frightened that tears welled up in his eyes.

“Sister! I want my sister! I want to go home!”

“You’re so noisy.” An ethereal female voice suddenly sounded from behind Shen Chi’s ear. Her sharp nails landed on Shen Chi’s face and then went down inch by inch. The surrounding temperature plummeted, and the cold seemed to seep into his bones. Shen Chi trembled and was so frightened that he didn’t dare to move.

“Your soul is not bad. In a while, I’ll eat you first.”

Shen Chi had already stopped crying, but after being frightened by her, he started crying again. “I don’t want to be eaten by you. You evil ghost, I want to see my sister!”

“Who’s that disgusting thing?” The woman’s nails scratched Shen Chi’s face and the sweet smell of blood made her close her eyes in ecstasy.

“Child, remember this. I’m a noble ghost bird!”
