Chapter 292 : A Rose Wedding 18 (2/2)

Shi Sheng tapped on the pieces of scrap metal found inside with her sword, causing a rattling noise that could be heard from miles away. She turned to examine her surroundings.

The building appeared to be a dilapidated laboratory.

She wandered around the place for a bit, stopping every so often to observe, before coming to a stop in front of a rusting iron door.

She used her sword to slice apart the chains holding the door shut and, with a creak, it opened.

A disgusting stench that contained the scent of blood greeted her.

The room beyond the door looked completely different from the other parts of the building.

All the equipment inside was brand new. The stench was coming from a corpse lying on the operating table.

Shi Sheng frowned as she went over to have a closer look.

It was the corpse of a vampire.

‘Someone’s doing private experiments on vampires? Ha…’

Shi Sheng didn’t find anyone in the abandoned building, but she did find several more clean laboratories that had clearly been in use recently.

‘What did that doppelganger lure me here for?’

Clunk— Clunk—

Clunking noises suddenly sounded around her. Shi Sheng didn’t react as she calmly stared outside.

A shadow appeared in her field of vision.

The woman who wore the same face as hers was smiling sweetly and waving at her. Her lips moved but Shi Sheng couldn’t hear her.

The woman appeared to have realised this too, for she disappeared in a flash. A moment later, she returned holding a piece of paper.

On the white paper, several words were written with a bright red liquid:

“Behave yourself in there”

Four words with a deeper meaning behind them.

Shi Sheng cracked her neck from side to side, a slight smile creeping onto her face. It appeared to be filled with mocking and disdain.

The Mi Nai doppelganger outside changed her expression and quickly vanished with the paper.

Shi Sheng walked over to the glass window that had been broken for who knew how long and tapped the air with her sword.

Zzz zzz—

She felt resistance there.

‘What are they planning?’ Shi Sheng had a pondering expression on, her sword still lifted.

Far away from the building, a human figure was standing below a tree, his features hidden by the shadows. From the figure however, one could tell it was a man.

He was holding a pair of binoculars that he was using to watch the building Shi Sheng was currently in.

“Master, she’s been trapped.” The Mi Nai doppelganger appeared from nowhere and stood behind him carefully and respectfully.

“En.”

“Why don’t we just kill her?” The Mi Nai doppelganger asked in confusion. ‘Since she’s already trapped, it should be very easy for Master to kill her.’

“She still has a use.” The man’s voice was a bit hoarse. One couldn’t tell what he was feeling from his tone. “This isn’t something you should be asking.”

The doppelganger’s expression changed, lowering her head fearfully. “Ling Xiang overstepped. Please forgive me, Master.”

“Let’s go.” The man put away the binoculars and turned to leave.

Ling Xiang cast one final glance at the building, before turning around to follow the man as they vanished into the night.
