The ghost's power was so great that every attack made Chen Yile's arms numb, but he gritted his teeth and refused to retreat.

The battle lasted for a while, and Chen Yile gradually felt overwhelmed.

He knew that he could no longer be so passive in defense and had to find the ghost's weakness.

He recalled his previous ghost-exorcism experience and an idea flashed through his mind.

He quickly drew a complex spell on the ground. The ghost seemed to sense his intention, roared, and increased the speed of his attack.

Chen Yile concentrated on completing the spell and then recited the incantation aloud.

The talisman's light lit up again, and the ghost's body began to tremble, letting out a painful roar.

Chen Yile seized the opportunity and hit the ghost's head with the demon-subduing pestle. The ghost let out a scream and its body gradually dissipated in the light.

As the ghost disappeared, the chill in the room also dissipated.

Chen Yile was breathing heavily, feeling that his body had reached its limit.

Chen Yile stumbled to his feet. The pain in his body seemed to have numbed. The only thing driving him forward was the instinct to survive.

He raised his head and looked around, trying to find the warehouse he had been to before.

That was his last hope, perhaps he could find some clothes to keep warm inside.

The outline of the warehouse appeared faintly at the end of his sight. Chen Yile was delighted and his steps became more determined.

He struggled to the door of the warehouse and pushed open the half-open door.

Fortunately, it was not frozen and still retained its previous appearance.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt a sudden sense of weakness in his limbs, almost making him fall to the ground.

He struggled to walk to the clothes rack and wanted to reach out to take some clothes, but he knocked over the clothes rack due to lack of strength.

His clothes fell off one after another, and he fell onto the soft pile of clothes.

Chen Yile closed his eyes and was finally able to relax a little.

He was so tired that he didn't even bother to tidy up his clothes and fell into a deep sleep.

Time passed quietly in the darkness. After an unknown amount of time, his strength gradually recovered.

Suddenly, he felt a hand gently touching him.

Chen Yile woke up in shock. It was dark all around him. He subconsciously felt around him but touched nothing.

What was touching him?

He suppressed the fear in his heart and asked softly, "Who is it?"

A soft female voice sounded in the darkness: "You are already very tired, don't worry, I won't hurt you, let you have a good rest."

Chen Yile's heartbeat calmed down a bit, but he was still full of vigilance: "What is your purpose?"

The woman chuckled, her voice seeming to come from far away: "Can you feel my body temperature?"

Only then did Chen Yile realize that the other person was lying on top of him.

He felt it carefully and indeed felt a warm sensation coming over him, so he said, "I feel it."

The woman whispered, "Since it has body temperature, it must be a human."

Chen Yile nodded. Although he was still a little uneasy, he seemed to have no other choice.

The woman continued to caress him, her fingers gentle and a little cold, as if carrying some kind of magic, gradually relaxing his nerves.

"What's your name?" the woman suddenly asked, her voice soft and seductive.

"Chen Yile." He answered subconsciously, then asked, "What about you?"

"The name isn't important." The woman's fingers gently traced his chest, her voice low and ambiguous. "What's important is that you need me now."

Chen Yile felt something was wrong, but his physical exhaustion left him with no extra energy to resist.

The woman's fingers moved across his skin with a strange power, as if stirring up some emotion deep within him.

He felt his heartbeat quicken and his breathing became rapid.

In the darkness, the woman's face gradually approached and he could feel her breath.

It was a feeling that was both strange and familiar, as if there was some indescribable connection between them.

He tried to open his eyes wide, trying to see her face clearly, but the darkness was like a thick curtain, covering everything.

"Why are you here?" Chen Yile asked, trying to stay awake.

The woman's voice was filled with a hint of laughter: "I've been waiting for you."

These words made Chen Yile's heart sink suddenly.

He wanted to get up, but the woman's hand held him down: "Don't move, have a good rest. I will protect you."

Chen Yile felt a force pressing him back to the ground, and the woman's fingers continued to wander over his body with an indescribable charm.

He felt dizzy, as if something was eroding his will.

"Who are you?" Chen Yile asked with all his might, his voice trembling slightly.

The woman didn't answer, but moved closer to him.

Her lips brushed against his ear and she whispered, "You don't need to know."

Chen Yile suddenly realized that things were definitely not that simple.

The appearance of this woman is too strange, he must find out the truth.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

"Can you let me go?" Chen Yile tried his best to make his voice sound calm.

The woman chuckled. "Do you really want me to let you go?"

These words made Chen Yile's heart beat faster, and he knew he had to do something.

Just as the woman's fingers slid across his chest again, he suddenly turned over and grabbed her wrist.

"Who are you?" Chen Yile held her hand tightly, trying to suppress the fear in his heart.

The woman seemed to be caught off guard by his reaction and struggled slightly, but quickly regained her composure. “Do you really want to know?”

"Yes." Chen Yile said firmly.

In the darkness, the woman's figure suddenly became blurred, as if she disappeared before his eyes.

He felt a strong chill rising from the bottom of his heart, as if an invisible hand was strangling his throat.

"You'll never know." The woman's voice echoed in the darkness with an irresistible power.

Chen Yile's consciousness gradually became blurred, and he felt that his strength was rapidly draining away.

Just when he was about to lose consciousness, he suddenly felt a violent vibration, as if something was hitting the ground.

He suddenly opened his eyes and found himself still lying on the pile of clothes, and there was silence all around him.

Everything that just happened seemed like a dream, but his heart was still beating violently, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death struggle.

"What on earth is going on?" Chen Yile muttered to himself, trying to organize his thoughts.

At this moment, he felt a strong chill coming from behind.

He turned around suddenly and found a dark figure slowly approaching him. It was a woman, emitting a faint chill.
