Chapter 518 Contract

At the tea house, Chen Mu pondered over the matters of the Ghosts.

He had spent over a decade in Yunzhou and had seen Ghosts only a handful of times. A large number of them had once appeared on Mist Smoke Mountain, but they were summoned through a blood sacrifice. On the contrary, within the borders of Da Liang Country, there were quite a few Ghosts.

"Are there many Ghosts in Kangzhou?" he asked with some concern, still feeling apprehensive at the memory of the eerily bizarre impression the Ghosts had left on him.

"Ghosts? What's that?" Shang Yang asked, looking puzzled.

Chen Mu's eyebrows shot up in surprise, "Aren't the Ghosts the ones that the Living Gods lead into the Netherworld?"

"What I'm talking about are Yin Spirits, the souls of beings after death, not these Ghosts you mention," Shang Yang corrected.

Yin Spirits? Souls of beings after death? Weren't those the strange apparitions from folk tales?

A shock went through Chen Mu's heart.
