Crazy! The cold master fell in love with me, she ran away from him

As he stepped into the room, Li Nian felt a gust of cold wind. The light was dim, and the surroundings were damp and nasty.

Seeing that the furnishings in the house were all neatly arranged and not messy at all, I asked

"Sister, have you ever cleaned up this house since Manager Li died?"

The woman shook her head

Li Nian closed his eyes slightly, gathered spiritual energy in his palms, and felt it carefully. Sure enough, he felt a trace of the power of the resentful spirit here.

Sure enough it was her!

When several people returned to the City Lord's Mansion, it was almost dark. The City Lord was so anxious that he could not sit still. Bai Ji and others waited slowly and asked them if they had found anything else.

Yanzhou said, "In the room where Manager Li died, a trace of resentful spirit power was found."

Li Nian and Qi An nodded, but Jiang Yuxia was a little confused.

When the city lord heard this, his legs went weak and he fell back into his chair, his face pale.

Ye Zhanying and others also came back and got the same result.

"Then how do we catch that vengeful spirit?"

"This vengeful spirit probably feeds on human souls. It hasn't come out for three or four days. I'm afraid it can't bear it any longer," Bai Ji said.

"But we don't know who the vengeful spirit will attack next, how can we catch it?" Yue Ze asked

The city lord beside him trembled as he emerged from his chair, still grabbing Bai Ji's sleeve, and asked, "What should we do then?"

Li Nian looked at Bai Ji's forced smile to comfort the city lord, and he felt like laughing. He touched his nose to hide it and said

"Can we borrow a few people from the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Borrow...borrow someone?" City Lord Yao asked

"Use these people as bait to lure out the evil spirits," Yanzhou understood Li Nian's intention and explained.

"Of course, we will stay in the dark and protect them!"

The city lord thought about it and called a few servants, all of whom were men.

That night, the three servants walked timidly on the deserted streets, and the moonlight stretched their shadows long.

When the wind blew, the lanterns hanging on both sides of the street swayed slightly, and the people were so frightened that even their shadows shook a few times.

Li Nian and his companions hid in the dark, waiting for the vengeful spirit to come out.

Bai Ji followed the group of little guys alone, looking at them lazily with his hands folded, and yawned a few times out of boredom.

I thought to myself, it would be better to stay in the mansion with my senior sister!

Time was getting longer and longer, and Li Nian and his companions could no longer stay there, as there was no trace of the vengeful spirit.

Early the next morning, Yanzhou and his men returned to their mansion and waited all night without any results.

As soon as Bai Ji returned to the mansion, he walked to Yue Jian's side very consciously, like Yue Jian's personal pendant.

Li Nian secretly rolled his eyes at this. His senior brother was so timid that he didn't even dare to say that he liked her.

After several days without any results, everyone was getting a little impatient.

One day, while they were talking in the reception room, a handsome, thin man walked in and saluted the city lord. "Father, I have been ill for the past few days and have not been able to greet any guests."

The city lord nodded slightly at the man and introduced him to them.

As soon as Li Nian saw the man's appearance clearly, he understood all the strange things that had happened in the past few days.

This person is Yao Xinyuan, the son of City Lord Yao. He remembered every detail of this place in his previous life.

He tentatively asked the city lord, "City lord, since it is a vengeful spirit that is harming people, it must be because the vengeful spirit has a grudge. I wonder if there has been any injustice in this city?"

When the city lord heard this, he became solemn and then denied this possibility!

Only Li Nian noticed that a hint of unnaturalness flashed across Yao Xinyuan's eyes.

The city lord felt a little unwell, so he asked Yao Xinyuan to treat him well and went to rest.

While they were still talking, the housekeeper came running in and said hurriedly, "Master, someone has died in the city again."

"where?"

A pastry shop in the west of the city

After hearing this, Ye Zhanying immediately flew away on his sword, followed by several people from Yanzhou.

When they arrived at the shop, a male corpse came into everyone's sight. Li Nian went forward to feel his pulse and found that the body still had some residual heat, so he must have died not long ago.

He rummaged through his storage ring, pulled out a tracking talisman, made some hand gestures, and followed the instructions.

Soon, Li Nian and others arrived at the woods in the suburbs. The power of the resentful spirits here was extremely strong, so thick that it made people feel uncomfortable.

"Be careful, don't be careless!" After giving the instructions, he pulled the frightened Jiang Yuxia to his side.

The fog in the forest was getting thicker and thicker, and it was all gray.

Li Nian immediately summoned his sword and focused his attention on his surroundings.

A black shadow came silently behind Jiang Yuxia, just when it was about to pounce.

Li Nian swung the sword in his hand, the sword light flashed, and he swung it quickly towards the black shadow, knocking it away temporarily.

He pushed Jiang Yuxia to Qi An and started fighting with the black shadow with his long sword. His body rolled in the air and sharp sword winds were swung out.

The black shadow split into several black air groups and attacked the other people.

The sharp sword in Li Nian's hand was flying, and his feet were performing the Wind-Stepping Technique. His figure was moving quickly, and the black air had no time to dodge it for a moment.

Seeing that Li Nian was not easy to deal with, he changed his target, quickly came to Chu Xu and hit her from behind.

Li Nian paused and pretended not to see it. After Chu Xu was hit, he quickly stepped forward.

The black fog gathered into a ball in frustration and turned into a charming and seductive woman in black. She stared at Yanzhou and others with her eyes and said delicately:

"Good brothers~, how could you bear to kill Mei'er~"

Li Nian: “…”

What Li Nian saw was not a great beauty at all, but a faceless woman with just a dead pale and wrinkled skin.

When Qi An heard this, he was...stunned!

The way she said this sentence was full of twists and turns, and the ending tone seemed to reach the sky.

It's not that I was confused, but I got goosebumps all over the floor.

Only Yanzhou was not affected at all. He had no expression on his face and chopped with his sword.

The man smiled sweetly and dodged, "Why are you helping them? They all deserve to die."

Qi An said, "You damn woman, you kill people and take their souls, and you still have the audacity to say that."

Sword winds slashed towards her.

The woman in black said fiercely, "You young boys, you really don't know how to live or die."

As he spoke, he suddenly burst out with a burst of power, which was comparable to the power released by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Li Nian stood in front of Jiang Yuxia, trying hard to block her.

Just when the few people were about to be unable to resist, Yuejian and the other two arrived in time, gathered the spiritual power in their hands, and attacked the vengeful spirit.

The vengeful spirit was hit by their palm, screamed, and immediately fled away.

Yanzhou wanted to catch up but was stopped by Xu Zhiyuan.

Li Nian heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this. You Meir was the vengeful spirit, and her cultivation level was comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator. They couldn't defeat her!

Just as they were taking a breath, a white, blood-stained hand slowly reached out and grabbed Qi An's ankle...

Qi An felt the sticky and cold touch, and his whole body froze. Then he kicked back hard.

There was a loud thud as the ground touched the ground, and a scream cut through the sky!

When everyone looked over, they saw a woman lying curled up on the ground, foaming at the mouth, her face full of pain!

I looked at Qi An very sadly... or to be more precise, at that flying long leg...

Nothing was said, yet it seemed like everything was said!

"........."

Qi An naturally felt it too, and in the astonished eyes of the crowd, he quickly retracted his foot, then... stood at attention and rested, like a child who had made a mistake...

Bai Ji walked over, patted Qi An on the forehead, raised his chin, and signaled him with his eyes.

Qi An gritted his teeth, stepped forward with some guilt, and said, "I'm sorry, Junior Sister. I thought... it was a ghost, so I kicked you. I'm really sorry."

Yue Jian hurried forward to help her up and check her injuries.

Li Nian was watching from the side, and he almost couldn't hold back the smile on his face. He bit his lip hard and tried to suppress the smile.

But the moment he turned around and met Jiang Yuxia's eyes, the surging smile broke through his tightly pursed lips, ruining his smile!

"Haha... Ugh... cough..."

"........."

The others were also holding their breath so hard that their shoulders were shaking and their mouth corners were about to be bitten.

Chu Xu: “…”

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Xu went back to his room to recuperate, while the others stayed in the hall.

Yao Xinyuan supported the city lord and said without waiting for him to speak, "Have you caught the vengeful spirit?"

Li Nian would have believed it if he didn't know the truth because of his anxious look.

Bai Ji shook his head and told them.

The city lord was worried, "ran away?! What should we do next?"

"She has been injured by us and urgently needs souls to feed on and heal her wounds. She will appear soon."
