Chapter 39 Fighting Yin Yuandong for the Female Ghost
The night grew deeper.
Outside the main hall, it was pitch black, with strange noises occasionally ringing out.
It sounded like some strange species making strange noises.
Inside the main hall, the firelight was bright, and the bonfire crackled and popped.
Upon learning that Xiao Chen had sent the golden snake to help find the Purple Dragon Mystic Grass, Duan Chenfei, Gong Feng, and the others all showed expressions of gratitude.
Senior Xiao Chen couldn't bear to let them put themselves in danger!
For a moment, Duan Chenfei felt a wave of bitterness wash over her.
I was so blind to his greatness, I was incredibly stupid!
She suddenly stood up, crossed her hands in front of her, bowed her head and said, "Senior, I—I offended you before, I—I sincerely apologize to you again. I'm sorry. I will do my best to make amends in any way I can. I just hope—I hope you can forgive me."
His tone was sincere, tinged with a hint of trepidation.
Gong Feng and the others looked slightly taken aback.
Is this really their young lady?
She's completely different from how she used to be!
Noticing Gong Feng and the others' surprise, Duan Chenfei's cheeks flushed.
Was I really that unruly in the past?
Xiao Chen looked up at Duan Chenfei and said, "You once said you wanted to completely eliminate the Ghost-Faced Insects and rid the people of this scourge. I thought there was still hope for you, and the facts have proven that you are right."
Duan Chenfei was stunned for a moment, and a feeling of admiration arose in her heart.
Perhaps this is the true magnanimity of a great person?
Gong Feng looked pleased.
No matter how many times you explain the principles of life, it's useless.
Only through personal experience can a person truly change.
At this moment, a golden light flew in from outside the gate and landed on Xiao Chen's shoulder.
It was Xiao Jin who returned.
"Did you find it?" Xiao Chen asked.
"certainly!"
With a flick of its little golden tail, a strange purple herb floated in the air.
Duan Chenfei's face immediately lit up with excitement, and she then said cautiously, "Senior, although I don't have many treasures on me, I—I am willing to repay you with everything in my storage ring. Please accept it."
Gong Feng and the others also spoke up and took off their storage rings.
Looking at these people, Xiao Chen suddenly found them quite adorable.
So he smiled and said, "No need to thank me in time. I will go see Duan Ruifeng in a while, and I will thank you then."
Duan Chenfei's face lit up with surprise: "You've come to see Father?"
Gong Feng sighed inwardly, thinking to himself, "Indeed, the wealth in their hands is not worth the attention of Senior Xiao Chen."
Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "Go down the mountain after dawn. We'll meet again if fate allows."
Duan Chenfei immediately said gratefully, "Thank you so much, senior!"
Xiao Chen nodded and stood up.
"Senior, what's going on here?"
"I'll set off now."
Gong Feng and the others were taken aback.
"Senior, this is not advisable. Poison Cloud Mountain is extremely dangerous under the cover of night. You—"
Before Gong Feng could finish speaking, Xiao Chen laughed and said, "They are the ones who should be afraid."
As he spoke, he took Little Fairy Doctor's hand and walked out of the main hall.
The two figures quickly disappeared into the night.
Duan Chenfei and Cheng Wuyong exchanged glances, but they were not worried about Xiao Chen's safety.
The main reason Xiao Chen chose to leave immediately was—
Yin Yuandong has disappeared!
The night was as dark as ink, and the mountains and fields were shrouded in mist.
Somewhere in Poison Cloud Mountain.
Yin Yuandong raised his palm and slapped it onto the ground.
The earth suddenly collapsed, and a faint bloody light emanated from the cracks.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yin Yuandong struck down with his palm again, and the blood-red light surged instantly. A blood-red jade pendant shot out from the ground, seemingly trying to escape.
Yin Yuandong snorted coldly and struck out with his palm from a distance. The blood-red light on the jade pendant exploded with a bang, and a petite figure was knocked out from the explosion and fell to the ground.
It was a female ghost!
She wore a blood-red dress, had a face like a young girl, and skin that was snow-white and translucent.
She curled up on the ground, her petite body trembling violently.
-
"My lord, spare my life! My daughter has never harmed anyone!"
The red-clad female ghost pleaded in anguish, lying on the ground, panting heavily.
Yin Yuandong looked down at the other person with a strange smile and chuckled, "I don't care whether you harm people or not. I'm here to take you back."
The red-clad female ghost's beautiful but pale face was filled with fear as she huddled on the ground, trembling.
"Huh? This is... a ghost?"
Just as Yin Yuandong was about to make his move to capture them, a soft exclamation suddenly rang out nearby.
Yin Yuandong's body suddenly stiffened.
It's him!
The newcomers were naturally Xiao Chen and Little Fairy Doctor.
Looking at the girl in red, Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow.
Is this Yin Yuandong's goal in coming to the Dou Qi Continent?
He just looks like an ordinary soul.
Upon seeing another person appear, the red-clad female ghost's pale face showed even more fear, giving her a pitiful appearance.
"Old Yin, what's this?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Xiao Chen, what brings you here?" Yin Yuandong's expression was not very good.
"You suddenly disappeared right under my nose, so of course I came to find you," Xiao Chen said with a faint smile.
"Hehe, I see. I just suddenly sensed the presence of this little girl and came to check on her."
"Oh?" Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow. "How come I didn't sense it?"
Yin Yuandong frowned.
He knew this kid's personality; now that he'd been discovered, taking the girl away wouldn't be so easy.
Before he could even speak, Xiao Chen said without any politeness, "Old Yin has traveled a long way to the Dou Qi Continent, you must be tired, but this ghost—"
"I feel that we are destined to be together."
Xiao Chen wasn't talking nonsense; he genuinely felt that the female ghost looked somewhat familiar.
Yin Yuandong's face turned ugly: "Xiao Chen! I discovered it first!"
Xiao Chen said calmly, "I know."
Seeing this, Yin Yuandong took a deep breath, his face turned fierce, and an extremely terrifying aura emanated from his body, pressing down on Xiao Chen.
Just then, a cold snort rang in Yin Yuandong's ears, and his eyes suddenly lit up as he saw a golden dragon staring coldly at him with indifferent eyes.
In an instant, Yin Yuandong broke out in a cold sweat.
The terrifying aura within him vanished instantly, and he returned to his frail and weak appearance.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "Elder Yin should leave now."
Yin Yuandong glanced at the small golden snake on Xiao Chen's shoulder, a look of apprehension on his face.
"Xiao Chen, you're ruthless!"
"You can have this female ghost!"
After saying that, Yin Yuandong glared at Xiao Chen fiercely, and the moment he turned around, his figure disappeared.
Upon seeing this, Little Fairy Doctor's beautiful eyes widened instantly.
She initially thought he was just an ordinary old man.
Later I realized he might be a strong person.
But at this moment, Yin Yuandong disappeared into thin air, making her realize that this old man was extremely powerful!
Xiao Chen ignored Yin Yuandong's whereabouts and looked at the girl in red curled up on the ground. He said, "I'll give you a chance. Tell me your background and everything you know. If I'm satisfied, I'll show you a way to live."
The words were casual, yet they sent a chill down the spine of the girl in the red dress.
In her eyes, Xiao Chen, who was able to force back that vicious old man, was undoubtedly even more terrifying!
