“People…”

“Human skin?!”

Qianhe’s pupils dilated and looked at Ye Xuan in amazement.

“That explains that.”

“Why can’t you see the body in the house you went to before?”

“Because the bodies were burned in the fire pit.”

“But…”

“Why can’t you see the bones?”

“And it is impossible for the bodies of so many people to be burned in such a small fire pit.”

Chizuru asked.

“Indeed.”

“So my guess is that this ghost should be different from other ghosts.”

“You mean…”

Ye Xuan looked at Qianhe’s big eyes and nodded.

“That’s right, I’m guessing it’s a ghost that devours human bones for a living.”

“Devouring bones…”

“After killing these woodcutters, this ghost will burn the remaining human skin and muscles.”

Ye Xuan put his nose to the skin tissue on the blade and sniffed.

“There’s still some ghost smell on it.”

“Through this, I can track down this ghost.”

“Great!”

Qianhe looked at Ye Xuan with a hint of adoration.

“This Ye Xuan.”

“There are two brushes…”

“It’s amazing, Ye Xuan.”

Inexplicably.

Qianhe looked at Ye Xuan, who had a serious face, and his heart beat faster.

“Shouldn’t you?”

“I only like Lord Tengen.”

“How could you be attracted to this man?”

“What are you doing?”

Looking at the thousand cranes with red cheeks, Ye Xuan asked puzzled.

“Nothing, nothing!”

Chizuru quickly lowered his head shyly.

“Okay, let’s go.”

“Gotta catch this ghost in a hurry.”

“That…”

Qianhe looked at Ye Xuan’s back and suddenly felt inexplicably moved.

“Thank you.”

“Huh?”

Ye Xuan looked at Qianhe with a puzzled expression.

“Thank you, in fact, you didn’t have to accompany me to catch this ghost.”

“Oops.”

“Okay, we’re teammates.”

“Isn’t what you want to do what I want to do?”

“Besides, it’s impossible to let a ghost do evil in the mountains all the time.”

“Stop being verbose, let’s go!”

In an instant, a warmth surged into Chizuru’s heart.

“Ye Xuan, this person.”

“It’s actually pretty good.”

It was getting dark.

Ye Xuan understood.

The real danger is only now beginning.

Ghosts are afraid of the sun, so they generally act at night.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan became puzzled again.

It stands to reason that the woodcutter’s family who were killed in Fangcai’s house.

Reasoned chronologically, it should have been killed during the day.

After the murder, the ghost had to wait for dark in a room that did not shine sunlight before leaving.

Why can’t you smell ghosts in that room?

Ye Xuan didn’t understand a little.

Goo~

After walking for a day, Ye Xuan’s stomach was a little hungry.

“Are you hungry?”

Ye Xuan took out two rice balls from his backpack and handed them to Qianhe.

“Thank you.”

“It’s delicious.”

I have to say that Sachiko’s craftsmanship is really good.

“Ghosts generally operate at night.”

“You should know that.”

“Of course.”

“So we can’t rest at night.”

“Well, understood.”

“It’s going to be hard.”

Unexpectedly, Ye Xuan was quite considerate.

This surprised Chizuru a little.

The deeper you go into the hinterland of the mountains and forests.

The smell of blood is getting stronger.

“Be vigilant.”

Ye Xuan reminded.

“Did you track down the ghost?”

“It’s not…”

In this mountain forest, it is very likely that there are other ghosts.

“Other ghosts?”

“Hmm..”

“Because there’s a pungent smell of blood everywhere.”

“But it doesn’t smell like that ghost.”

“You follow me.”

“Hmm…”

Chizuru was a little scared, but the man in front of her made her feel inexplicably secure.

“It’s heavy…”

The pungent taste is getting stronger.

Suddenly, Ye Xuan stopped.

“Very close…”

Sh—

A blood-red tongue suddenly sticks out from the depths of the woods and strikes towards Chizuru.

“Breath of Thunder.”

“Flash!”

The long tongue was split in half and retracted deep into the woods.

“So fast!”

Chizuru looked at the half-cut tip of his tongue that was turning black and gray on the ground with a look of horror.

There was also Ye Xuan who held a knife in front of him.

“What a speed!”

“If it weren’t for him, I would have been dragged away by the ghost…”

“Just in case, Chizuru, hold me tight.”

“Hug…”

“The ghost’s regeneration ability is very strong, and after this miss, he will soon strike again.”

“Well, good.”

Although a little shy, Qianhe still hugged Ye Xuan tightly.

She pressed her cheeks and chest against Ye Xuan’s solid back.

The palm of his hand felt Ye Xuan’s heartbeat.

Knock knock—

Knock knock—

I don’t know if it’s because of fear and nervousness, or because of holding this handsome man, and the blood pressure that rises rapidly.

Chizuru’s heart was beating fast.

But on the other hand, Ye Xuan’s heartbeat was surprisingly calm.

He was intently using the breathing method.

Steam is constantly pouring out of the nasal passages.

The hand holding the handle of the knife is constantly generating heat.

“Breath of Flame.”

“Unbridled.”

“Swirl of Sheng Yan.”

I saw that the blade in Ye Xuan’s hand suddenly flashed with dazzling flames.

The flames that burst out from the blade erupted thinly, instantly turning the surrounding vegetation into nothing.

“This is…”

Chizuru was dumbfounded as he watched everything that happened in front of him.

“Just with an ordinary taikna…”

“Can you make such a move?!”

“His strength…”

“Is it not under Lord Tianyuan?”

“Moreover, I can use two breathing methods at the same time…”

“What a monster!”

In the firelight, a dark shadow appeared in the clearing.

“You…”

The ghost looked at Ye Xuan standing in front of him with a confused expression.

“Where this bird doesn’t…”

“Why are there such strong humans?”

“Could it be someone from the Ghost Killing Team?”

“It’s disgusting.”

Ye Xuan complained about the ugly appearance of the ghost in front of him.

“Whew…”

“It turned out to be just a ghost who can’t even use vampire magic.”
