Help

After sending away the spirits, Lu Sheng returned to her room to sleep. However, she heard sounds of fighting coming from the back mountain.

She always had a good hearing, where she could hear what others could not.

After hesitating for a bit, she decided to check it out.

Chu Sihan and Chu Yun had initially wanted to try out their luck. Unexpectedly, they had really encountered the legendary 'black figure.'

The black figure had great qinggong1, and it almost left behind Chu Sihan and Chu Yun. Thankfully, they managed to catch up to the figure in the end.

It was just that before the duo could attack, a group of people had suddenly appeared and obstructed their path.

The two had no choice but to helplessly watch the black figure disappear in the darkness.

Lu Sheng had just entered the forest in the back mountain when a wave of bloody smell wafted into her nose.

As she moved forward, she could hear the sounds of fighting.

It seemed like the fight involved a good number of people.

"Lord, there are too many of them."

Chu Yun wiped the blood on his face and stood back-to-back with Chu Sihan. His eyes were alert as he watched the men in black surrounding him and Chu Sihan.

At that moment, Chu Sihan emitted a fearsomely cold demeanor.

His thin lips pursed, and his acute sight scanned the surroundings.

Numerous corpses surrounded them. However, the stream of black men coming at the two of them felt endless. Whenever Chu Sihan and Chu Yun defeated a batch, another would replace it.

Although both of them had practiced martial arts, they had limited energy to spare.

Given this situation, both of them perishing here was a possibility.

"We have been tricked."

A few moments later, Chu Sihan coldly spoke.

They had walked into a certain someone's trap the moment they had exited Huang Yang Town.

It was his mistake.

"They want your life, Lord!"

Chu Yun gritted his teeth and spoke with a determined expression. "Lord, please be rest assured that I'll protect your life with all my might, even at the expense of my inferior life!"

Chu Sihan sneered, but he did not speak further.

Another round of killing started.

In the darkness, two men standing near the site coldly assessed the situation.

"Young Master, don't worry, Chu Sihan can't escape this time."

One of the men stared at Chu Sihan as his face revealed an evil smile.

The other expressionlessly spoke. "It better be so."

Listening to the two men's conversation, Lu Sheng sneered. She had applied the invisibility talisman and was casually walking past these two.

The sounds of fighting continued to reverberate in the air.

Lu Sheng walked to the side and observed the situation. She realized that the two men in black were against another group of men in black.

A few bodies lay in the vicinity, and their souls were scattered in the surroundings with faces full of confusion.

Lu Sheng took out her spirit-absorbing talisman and sucked the souls into it.

These spirits held many grievances. If she allowed them to wander around, they could wreak havoc. Thus she thought she might as well keep them away.

She had always been a righteous person, and she could not stand the "tyranny of the majority."

Therefore, she took out a black talisman and scanned her surroundings. Then, her gaze landed on the corpse nearby.

She placed the black talisman on the wound on the body.

Moments later, black clouds rushed out of the talisman.

They clamored in the night, seemingly excited at their 'resurrection' and the sight of the outside world.

Lu Sheng mockingly smiled, but her words instantly made the black clouds go quiet.

"Don't wander off after you're out. Or… I'll destroy you!"

The black clouds obediently stood before her and spoke in their hoarse, "We're here to listen to your orders, Master!"

"Go, stop those men in black and hit those two."

Toward the end, she pointed in the direction of the two cold-eyed spectators.
