Just as Qin Chen was about to continue forward. Qin Chen’s eyes suddenly widened, and his body abruptly stiffened on the spot. Seeing Qin Chen suddenly standing still, his eyes wide open staring ahead, Zhao Tengqi and the others were also taken aback. Following Qin Chen’s gaze, they thought he saw something terrifying, but there was nothing there. Qin Chen turned his head, looking at Zhao Tengqi with a flickering gaze, his brows furrowed tightly. The others also turned their attention to Qin Chen. "I just saw Xiang Sheng." Qin Chen spoke in a deep voice after a moment. Though it was only an instant, Qin Chen was certain that he indeed saw Xiang Sheng, and it was not a hallucination. In other words, what Wan Xiaotian said earlier was true! Hearing Qin Chen’s words, everyone’s minds roared like a bomb had exploded. Wan Xiaotian’s words, they could doubt! But Qin Chen’s words, they certainly wouldn’t doubt! Many people got goosebumps. For those who made it here, what haven’t they seen? Yet now, these extremely bizarre events are indeed horrifying, sending shivers down their spines, as if ghosts were all around. "In fact, just now, I saw him too." "I initially thought it was a hallucination, but now it seems, it’s not." At this moment, Chen Jingyuan also spoke in a low voice. "Damn it! What on earth is going on? We all saw Xiang Sheng’s body! Could it be he’s risen from the dead?" With three people claiming to have seen Xiang Sheng, no one doubted anymore. The first person could be lying, the second could have been hallucinating. But what about the third? Qin Chen’s brows furrowed tightly, as if locked in place. This was simply astounding. If someone was weak-willed, they would have already buckled. "Keep moving forward!" Qin Chen’s gaze was fixed firmly ahead, his eyes filled with determination! Everything surely has a reason! And the answer must lie ahead! To find out the answer quickly, they could only hasten their steps! Any hesitation or pause would just be wasting time! He had to find the answer quickly, or the mental pressure would be too great! In the pitch darkness, the group pressed on. Everyone was exhausted, yet none relaxed their guard for a moment. Suddenly, as Qin Chen and the others approached a dilapidated ancient building. A seemingly hearty laugh suddenly echoed. Instantly drawing everyone’s gaze! Upon seeing the person speaking, several people who were already in extreme terror collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way. Even Qin Chen’s eyelids twitched wildly, goosebumps breaking out all over! Because this person was none other than Xiang Sheng! "You... are you human or ghost? Aren’t you dead?!" A person from the Dynasty spoke with a trembling voice! This was just too frightening! "Dead? How could I, Xiang Sheng, be dead?" "Or perhaps, since none of you are dead, how could I be dead?" Xiang Sheng laughed lightly! This person was indeed Xiang Sheng! Hearing Xiang Sheng refer to himself, everyone’s heart trembled violently once more! Xiang Sheng was indeed not dead! As he spoke, Xiang Sheng walked up to the person who had just spoken. That person’s body was trembling uncontrollably, their face as pale as a ghost, entirely devoid of any color, completely powerless. "Don’t come closer! Don’t come closer!!!" He shouted incoherently. "Come with me, I’ll take you to a nice place." Xiang Sheng smiled strangely at that person. Suddenly, that person seemed entranced, their eyes turning hollow. Then, unbelievably, they nodded. Updates are released by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱 Xiang Sheng looked relaxed, leading the way. While that person stood up from the ground, following Xiang Sheng into the ancient building. Witnessing this scene, everyone’s scalp felt like it was about to burst open! "Feng Yan, come back! Hurry back! Don’t go!!" A member of the Dynasty, seeing Feng Yan following Xiang Sheng and about to enter the ancient building, his expression changed dramatically, shouting twice. He was Feng Yan’s good brother, and although he was also terrified, he couldn’t just watch Feng Yan walk to his doom. However, Feng Yan didn’t respond to the shouts at all. Following Xiang Sheng, he entered the ancient building. Inside the ancient building. Xiang Sheng brought Feng Yan in, then smiled, pointing to a hazy light orb ahead. "Go, pick up that light orb for me." Feng Yan moved like a soulless husk. Hearing Xiang Sheng’s words, he stiffly nodded, then walked straight up to the light orb. Following which, he reached out directly for the light orb. Just as Feng Yan’s hand touched the orb. Feng Yan was instantly shattered into oblivion by the aura emitted from the orb. As for Xiang Sheng, it seemed he had expected this outcome; seeing Feng Yan’s hand touching the orb, a smile crept up his lips. Then he simply vanished! With the aura of the light orb blooming. The ancient building, already in ruins, completely collapsed. Dust billowed, blurring the vision. Qin Chen frowned tightly, looking over at the first sight of the light orb. Upon seeing the light orb, Qin Chen felt a surge of magic power flood into his mind. This magic power made Qin Chen’s brain feel somewhat beyond his control. Feeling this, Qin Chen’s heart shook, immediately closing his eyes without hesitation. At the same time, he urgently instructed Gu Xiaofeng, Chen Jingyuan, and others: "Close your eyes! Close them now!!" The ancient building had collapsed, dust swirling, blurring their sight, so Gu Xiaofeng and the others hadn’t seen anything yet. Then they heard Qin Chen’s voice. They had immense faith in Qin Chen. Upon hearing his words, without a second thought, they closed their eyes. And in that moment, they could hear the frenzy around them. "Mine! That’s mine!!" "It’s mine! No one else will take it!" "Get away! All of you, get away!!!" Screams echoed, and in the next instant, dozens of figures leapt up, stirring the winds, appearing utterly terrifying. Gu Xiaofeng and the others remained with eyes closed, cold sweat pouring down like never before. They didn’t know what had happened, but they were certain that if they hadn’t followed Qin Chen’s advice, closing their eyes at the crucial moment. Then, they too might have been among those afflicted. Those people, they had all... gone mad!
