Chapter 27 - Gatekeeper (2/2)

Liu Chuan was so scared that his heart skipped a beat. He quickly pulled Wu Zhixin over and signaled her to shut up.

Wu Zhixin wanted to say more, but Liu Chuan winked at her crazily. Wu Zhixin was puzzled, but she was not stupid. She was anxious to go in and save their friends just now. However, now that she received Liu Chuan’s hint, she immediately quietened down.

Fortunately, the old gatekeeper didn’t mind. He looked up at the two of them and said, “Little girl, do you know who lives here? If I let you in, it’s hard to say if you’ll be able to come out alive.”

Then, he chuckled and closed his eyes again.

After that, no matter what the two of them said, the old gatekeeper no longer opened his eyes.

When Liu Chuan saw that the old gatekeeper no longer paid them any attention, he also tried to force his way through, but there was an invisible barrier in front of that gate that left them helpless.

Liu Chuan had no choice but to take out the green lotus seed from his pocket and give it a try.

The moment he took out the lotus seed, the old gatekeeper seemed to sense something. He suddenly opened his eyes and appeared in front of Liu Chuan as though he had teleported.

Liu Chuan was shocked. This gatekeeper’s strength was truly astonishing.

He could not even see how the old man had reached him. If he lost the lotus seed, his only hope would be gone.

Fortunately, the old man only looked at the lotus seed with a complicated expression. He rubbed his hands uncomfortably. He wanted to reach out and touch the green lotus seed, but he was hesitant.

In the end, he could only sigh with a sorrowful expression. “Is she alright?”

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuan carefully analyzed the relationship between the old man and the green lotus. Then, he carefully said, “She’s doing good. Her leaves… are still quite green.”

“…”

“So many years have passed. She can’t even maintain her own form anymore?” The old guard shook his head and sighed after saying this. He seemed to be quite helpless.

“Forget it, all of you can go in. Remember to stay true to your hearts after you enter. Whether everything in front of you is fake or real depends on your own judgment.”

With that said, he raised his hand and waved it. Then, the invisible barrier shattered with a loud bang, and the door of the straw hut slowly opened with creaking sounds.

Liu Chuan was overjoyed. This old man and the green lotus really did have something going on. He hurriedly put away the lotus seed and called Wu Zhixin over, preparing to enter the straw hut.

However, as soon as the door was opened, a series of demonic roars could be heard coming from inside the hut. The black shadows seemed to have gone crazy as they rushed out with all their might.

Even the 10,000-Year-Old Ghost was not this terrifying.

The old man guarding the gate snorted coldly. A stream of resplendent immortal qi burst forth from his body and swept towards those black shadows.

The terrifying black shadows seemed to have met their nemesis as they let out shrill screams one after another. Sharp, ear-piercing sounds were constantly produced. Every scream represented the dissipation of a black shadow.

Not long after, those black shadows all disappeared as if their souls had dispersed.

Liu Chuan and Wu Zhixin had never seen such a scene before. The aura of those black shadows was already incomparably terrifying to them, but with a wave of the old gatekeeper’s hand, they were all turned into ashes.

“They’re just a group of trifling demon spirits, yet they think that they can break out of this prison,” said the gatekeeper with disdain. Then, he turned around and said to Liu Chuan and Wu Zhixin, “Go in. Most of these demon spirits have already been killed. Hurry and do your thing.”

At this moment, the two of them didn’t dare say anything else. They thanked him and braced themselves to walk into the straw hut.

The old gatekeeper sighed when he saw them enter.

Wang Meng!
