C66 (1/2)
Qin Qianqian raised her head and stared at Mo Xin doubtfully, ”Why didn't you let me go? What did that bastard do?”
”We can't beat him. It doesn't matter if he has the Soul Absorbing Lock on him. We can't beat him!” Mo Xin didn't know what that Xu Cheng did. Previously, this underground palace only enslaved them to a faraway place to build a temporary palace. But now, not only did they enslave them, but they also came here every other day to capture a ghost.
Those ghosts then used it to feed that beast's Soul Absorbing Lock. Currently, that Soul Absorbing Lock had absorbed no more than fifty souls. Therefore, the ghosts on this mountain of corpses no longer had the power to resist.
Those who resisted were either used to nourish the Soul Absorbing Lock, or their souls were destroyed by the Soul Absorbing Lock.
”Then what should we do? ”If this goes on, the ghost in this Corpse Mountain will …” Qin Qianqian whispered. Their lives were suppressed by the underground palace, so they couldn't escape. The last time Mo Xin could escape, it was only because one of his companions had burnt his life force that he could be sent away temporarily.
However, even if they went out, so what? In the end, they would still die!
”Right, Bai Mu. Let's look for Bai Mu!” In Mo Xin's mind, he thought of the youth who could easily fight with Hades.
”But I'm afraid that he doesn't have the ability to back up now!” How could Qin Qianqian have not thought of Bai Mu? Although she had always believed that Bai Mu had the ability to do so, he still hadn't grown up yet. If she looked for him now, wouldn't that be harming him?
”We have no choice but him?” Mo Xin lowered his head. These past few days, he had seen countless of his comrades' souls dissipate, and his heart was in great pain as well.
”Alright, we'll talk when we get back.” Qin Qianqian nodded. Even if Bai Mu couldn't help her for the time being, she could still let him request help from other capable people.
With so many ghosts suffering here, those people would not be ignored.
At this moment, Xu Cheng was floating above these ghosts, lecturing them. He directly used the Soul Absorbing Lock to deal with those who were unconvinced. Only after he had said enough did he let them leave.
As for him, he was naturally going to complete the mission given to him by his lord.
This point was exactly where the puppet leader was having his meal. He wondered what would happen if that fellow lost his food.
When he thought of the horrible scene of feeding these days, Xu Cheng, who was used to horror incidents, involuntarily shivered. That thing hadn't even fully grown up, yet it was already so powerful. If it really did grow up, wouldn't that mean that it would destroy the heavens and the earth?
Even though that was the case, Xu Cheng could only shake his head. He only listened to his lord about these matters. As for the future matters, they would be handled by their master anyway.
However, this underground palace, hahaha, Master went into seclusion, and even the two Protectors went into seclusion. When Xu Cheng thought of how he would be able to relax for a while, he felt his body filled with energy.
As he thought this, he flew out of the underground palace to find food for the golem leader.
Since the tiger wasn't home, he might as well call the king 'Ok'. That puppet leader shouldn't have any problems getting hungry, right?
”Mr Bai Mu, we're here!”
The bodyguard's cold words woke Bai Mu up. Looking at the gloomy sky, he asked, ”What time is it?”
”5 PM sharp!” The bodyguard did not even look at his watch as he reported a number.
Bai Mu nodded his head and walked out of the car. Seeing the huge castle-like villa in front of him, Bai Mu once again sighed with emotion at the extravagance of wealth.
”Go directly to your Miss?” Bai Mu followed the bodyguard and entered through the electronic door. When he saw the huge iron door was closed, he lazily asked with his hands in his pockets.
”Mister Bai Mu, this way please!” The bodyguard didn't answer Bai Mu's question. Instead, he led Bai Mu to an open door and gestured for him to enter.
”Eh?” Bai Mu looked suspiciously at the bodyguard and then looked at the door that was opened. He noticed the bodyguard was staring at him without moving. It seemed that the bodyguard was intending to continue doing the same thing.
”Alright!” Bai Mu sighed helplessly at this inhumane bodyguard. Who would've thought that the moment he stepped into this room, he would hear a banging sound from the back. The door was heavily shut by the bodyguard.
”Hur hur, looks like the interview is starting!”
In the past, Bai Mu might have been a little flustered when faced with such a situation, but after experiencing so many things, he simply smiled and stuck his hands into his pockets. He walked steadily towards the top of the stairs.
However, the more they walked, the quieter it became. This strange atmosphere really made them feel like they had entered a ghost castle.
The closer he got to the end of the first flight of stairs, the quieter the atmosphere became. Bai Mu raised his brows lazily. His footsteps didn't stop because of this strange atmosphere.
What a joke. After experiencing the terrifying Nine Nether Maze City, why would he be afraid of such a small test?
”Dad, how could you do this?” In the main hall, the Liang Family's patriarch was dressed in casual attire, holding a cup of coffee in one hand and leisurely reading a newspaper. Beside her, Liang Qi Yue was anxiously talking and complaining to her father.
”If you want to be father and daughter's bodyguard, you can't even withstand such a small test?” Liang Zhong's eyebrows twitched under his glasses. If he couldn't even pass that little test, how could he protect the future successor of the Liang clan?
”Hmph, dad, you are clearly forcing me to do this!” Liang Qi Yue pursed her lips, angrily turning her head away.
