Villain Ch 568. Ghostly Affairs
The group continued their eerie journey through the emperor's tomb, following the ghostly breadcrumbs left by Mei Ling. The spectral figure, whether in the form of a woman or ethereal whips, guided them with otherworldly grace, pointing the way forward. The occasional bloodstains in the shape of a palm served as a macabre yet effective trail marker, confirming their path through the labyrinthine corridors.
As they moved deeper into the dungeon, the ambiance shifted, and the surroundings seemed to pulse with a quiet energy. The air became heavy, charged with the residual emotions of the trapped concubine.
Their journey took an unexpected turn when they stumbled upon a delicate bracelet lying in the middle of the corridor. Its intricate design hinted at an imperial origin, now tainted with a faint trace of blood. The group halted, exchanging puzzled looks as they pondered the significance of this newfound artifact.
