Chapter 256 - Hiding the Mystic Realm (2/2)

Zhu Ming, who watched the entire thing: “…”

She was doing this on purpose, right? She must be! He was still watching them!

“Master.” Yi Qing finally returned from the backyard and rushed toward her, shaking his head. “She’s not there!” The backyard was cleaner than the front – there was not a single chair in the yard. Apart from Yin Qi, there was nothing else in there.

Zhu Ming’s expression darkened. As long as they could not find the girl, Mother Feng would remain under suspicion. After pondering for a moment, he suggested, “Why not… I go along with you to look in the forest where the girl disappeared? I’m familiar with ghost immortals’ aura. Maybe I can get some clues?”

Lonemoon, who had been setting up the array, stopped. His expression was as dark as Zhu Ming’s. “Shortie is not here indeed.”

“Oh.” Shen Ying narrowed her eyes, but she did not respond to any of them. Instead, she kept the fruit, causing Mother Feng to reach for thin air. Suddenly, Shen Ying smiled. “I’m not giving it to you anymore. I gave you so many – why don’t you return one to me?”

Lonemoon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Zhu Ming: “…”

Where’s her shame? She just gave Mother Feng the same fruit again and again. Was she bullying a ghost immortal for her lack of a physical body?

o(>_<)o

Mother Feng paused. It was obvious that she did not understand what Shen Ying had just said. Her bleeding eyes stared directly at the fruit in Shen Ying’s hand, yet she did not dare to reach out for it again.

Lonemoon pursed his lips. “Hey, are you almost…” He began to reprimand her.

Mother Feng pulled a rectangular sign out of nowhere and threw it at them. Then, she returned to staring at the fruit in Shen Ying’s hand.

“Master!” Yi Qing exclaimed.

Lonemoon re-focused his energy as well. He looked at the sign. “What is that?”

“Is it a token?” Zhu Ming looked confused as well. Why did Mother Feng possess something like that? What’s more, the token had some God Power in it.

“I think it’s an array formation!” Shen Ying answered. She finally gave the fruit to Mother Feng, who by now looked elated. Then, the fruit dropped on the floor.

Shen Ying did not help her to pick it up his time. She picked up the token instead and walked to the center of the hall. Then, she knelt down and pressed down on the ground. Suddenly, the entire cave it up with a red light. An array appeared in the hall.

The ground collapsed inward inch by inch, especially the flooring in the middle where the red light was the most blinding. After a few moments, the array twisted and another scene appeared underneath it. They could not see quite clearly into the scene.

“That is… the entrance to a mystic realm!” Zhu Ming exclaimed.

Lonemoon was shocked as he asked, “How did you know that there’s an array that can open a mystic realm here?”

“I can see it!” Shen Ying answered. There was golden light everywhere – only that part of the ground was black. There was also a rectangular image on it. Anybody would be able to tell that there was something suspicious there.

Lonemoon: “…”

They watched as the red entrance became bigger and bigger, until it filled the entire hall.

Lonemoon nodded at his two companions and gestured to them. “Go in!”

They mounted their swords and flew into the mystic realm. Zhu Ming tugged Mother Feng, who was still looking for the fruit, along with him and entered the mystic realm as well.

With a flash of red, they found themselves in a different space altogether.
