Chapter 362: Not small, quite big...

 "What's going on? Why does this place feel so weird?"

 Xu Junyu walked around the thorny yard and returned to Chen Yao.

 Chen Yao was studying the shapes of the corpses and weapons on the ground.

 These corpses were flesh and blood, and if it weren't for the weapons that pierced their bodies and nailed them to the ground, no one would have considered them dead. But from a sensory perspective, they gave people a sense of being dead for many years and stale.

 Those weapons were even stranger. Chen Yao had never seen any of their shapes in the South China Sea.

 Xu Junyu pulled out a crescent-shaped halberd from a corpse and cried out softly, "Ah!"

 "how?"

 Chen Yao had never seen her lose her composure like this before.

 "I feel like I've seen this weapon somewhere before."

 She studied the halberd, frowning in thought.

 Chen Yao looked at the weapon and said, "It's like gold but not gold, like iron but not iron. The craftsmanship is exquisite and the edge is immortal. This kind of weapon is not made by ordinary people. Even cultivators would not be willing to just leave it here. Let alone a whole yard full of it."

 Xu Junyu nodded. "Besides the corpses impaled by these weapons, there are no other corpses here. If there had been a fight here, it would have been a massacre of disparate proportions. Logically, the victors wouldn't be willing to leave such fine weapons here."

 "Could it be some other kind of formation? Are these corpses and weapons the core of the formation or something like that?" Chen Yao had experienced several formations before, and it gave him a headache just thinking about it.

 Xu Junyu shook his head: "There is no aura of formation, and I pulled out this halberd but it didn't trigger any defense mechanism."

 "Well," Chen Yao released his spiritual sense as soon as he entered the courtyard, but he didn't sense any formations, so he didn't consider it as the primary possibility during the conversation. "But, Master, why did you ask us to come here? There's no one here..."

 Xu Junyu didn't understand why either.

 They both looked at the main hall with a rotten plaque hanging diagonally above the lintel.

 The doors and windows of the main hall were wide open, but it was pitch black. The tattered lanterns swaying in the yard could not let in a single light, making it look as eerie as a few eye sockets without eyeballs.

 "Be careful."

 He reminded Chen Yao and Xu Junyu as they walked towards the main hall door.

 Xu Junyu wrinkled his nose: "Master, do you still need to remind me? Hmm..."

 As soon as she uttered the words of dissatisfaction, she stumbled and almost stepped into a cave hidden in the grass.

 Fortunately, Chen Yao took action in time, grabbed her armpits, and hugged her greasy arms and hands.

 "Well……"

 The two of them stayed silent for a while. Xu Junyu took a few breaths before whispering, "You...how long are you going to keep touching me?"

 "?"

 After hearing what she said, Chen Yao woke up from the greasy and smooth feeling. He quickly straightened Xu Junyu and withdrew his hand.

 "Excuse me."

 Xu Junyu's face flushed red, and he took a few quick steps to avoid Chen Yao seeing his embarrassed expression. He pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Hey, what's the big deal? I'm your uncle and you're my nephew. We used to sleep in the same bed together. I believe you didn't mean it."

 She turned around and smiled brightly, her expression returning to normal: "I believe in your character!"

 Seeing her nonchalant expression, Chen Yao felt a little unhappy for some reason and couldn't help but sarcastically said, "If you were more reliable, I wouldn't have caused such a misunderstanding."

 Xu Junyu glared at him angrily, but this expression was even more charming than before: "You have no respect for your elders."

 "Not small, quite big..."

 Chen Yao responded to this sentence for some unknown reason, and suddenly felt the surroundings turned cold. Xu Junyu's beautiful face was already pressed against his.

 She raised one of her long, sharp eyebrows and looked at him: "What did you say?"

 Chen Yao laughed: "This yard is quite big!"

 Xu Junyu finally retracted his bouncing body and said, "It seems I need to continue teaching you swordsmanship on behalf of your master..."

 At this time, the two of them had already reached the main hall's gate. Before she could finish her words, the door suddenly closed and she fell into Chen Yao's arms.

 Chen Yao reacted quickly, worried that there might be something else strange going on. Without caring about anything else, he hugged Xu Junyu and quickly turned around and flew back to the center of the yard.

 He stared at the closed doors and windows.

 For a long time, there was no movement.

 "Hey...hey...why are you always so accurate in catching things?"

 Xu Junyu's faint stammering voice came from his chest. Chen Yao looked down in confusion, only to realize that when he hugged her and retreated this time, his two hands grabbed her on each side, and they were quite symmetrical...

 There are hard little dots between the fingers.

 "I'm sorry... Uncle Master, why didn't you remind me earlier?"

 Xu Junyu was so shocked by what he said that he pushed him away. He puffed out his chest and said confidently, "Isn't it all to save your face? Uncle Shi is an elder, so... it's okay. But you, kid, can't keep being so tactless..."

 Her voice got lower and lower as she spoke, because she found that after she came out of Chen Yao's arms, she actually felt a little disappointed, just as shameful as being hard when he touched her just now...

 Fortunately, Chen Yao didn't look at her at this time. Xu Junyu breathed a sigh of relief and used her spiritual energy to dispel the blush on her cheeks.

 "Uncle."

 "Hmm?"

 "Look at those doors and windows."

 Chen Yao's voice sank.

 Pointing to the doors and windows of the main hall.

 Xu Junyu looked over and his eyes trembled.

 Several pairs of eyes really appeared on the doors and windows.

 The red and yellow round eyes are very big, as if there are several giants in the room, leaning against the door and windows to look out.

 Although they were painted eyes, they held a hint of curious playfulness.

 It seems particularly creepy on such a night filled with dead bodies and withered grass.

 Even though Xu Junyu was knowledgeable and experienced, she couldn't help but get close to Chen Yao. At this moment, she suddenly wanted Chen Yao to hug her tightly.

 Bah! What's wrong with me? Is it because Jin Yiluo keeps nagging me? Have I been struck by her nightmare? Who knows, maybe this girl is now half ghost, half spirit...

 But as she secretly glanced at Chen Yao's fearless and delicate face, this idea became less and less confident.

 "Uncle."

 "Um... ah?"

 Xu Junyu answered hesitantly, as if he had been caught by the pigtail.

 Chen Yao didn't notice anything wrong with her at the moment, because his whole mind was focused on what was wrong in the main hall.

 Those eyes can actually resist divine consciousness.

 "Uncle Master, let's work together and kill them with one sword."

 Chen Yao took out two identical magic swords, put the tips of the swords against each other, and aimed them at the eye on the door.

 Xu Junyu released the restriction and drew out the magic sword.

 "Yuyu, you stinky bitch, you're suffocating me to death...ahhh!"

 Jin Yiluo was about to complain a few words when she was frightened into silence by the eyes on the doors and windows.

 Chen Yao and Xu Junyu looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

 What could have frightened Jin Yiluo, who was half spirit and half ghost, into screaming?

Chapter 363 Will be Tighter

 Two thick and long sword energies like whirlpools surged through the withered grass in the yard and hit the doors and windows of the main hall.

 The doors and windows opened and closed again amid the clanging of weapons in the yard.

 It didn't look like it was cut by the sword energy, but rather like it swallowed the sword energy.

 A strange chuckle came from the doors and windows, and the pairs of eyes that glanced at me blinked, and the unrestrained peeping seemed to be a protest.

 Chen Yao and Xu Junyu looked at each other again, both with surprise on their faces.

 Not to mention Xu Junyu's superb swordsmanship, even Chen Yao now, with these two magic swords, would be a little afraid of even Yu Yun, who was similar to Xu Junyu. But the sword energy that the two of them jointly slashed out was actually swallowed up silently?

 It can only be described as unbelievable.

 "Yuyu... why don't we go... why are you here so late at night and not sleeping..."

 Jin Yiluo's voice was shaking, and she sounded a little out of her wits.

 "You're useless!" Xu Junyu's delicate white fingers repeatedly poked the blade of the immortal sword. "Jin Yiluo, I remember you weren't like this before! How come now that everyone is dead, you're so scared of ghosts?"

 "Bullshit... Take a good look at these things, are they ghosts?"

 Jin Yiluo’s words startled Xu Junyu. She raised her eyebrows and looked directly at the pair of yellow eyes on the door.

 The yellow eyes blinked with a hint of amusement.

 There were a few more low laughs.

 "If it's not a ghost, what is it?"

 Chen Yao and Xu Junyu, several pairs of yellow eyes on the doors and windows, stared at each other across a door and window, a few feet across the courtyard.

 The night wind suddenly became strong, whipping the withered grass until it sobbed.

 It seemed like something was swimming behind Chen Yao and Xu Junyu.

 The more the things in the doors and windows didn't move, and the more they peeped playfully, the more the fear in Chen Yao and Xu Junyu's hearts increased.

 "We can't stay in this stalemate. Let's try to kill him again."

 Chen Yao let go of a sword and held the hand that Xu Junyu unconsciously extended. The cool little hand made him feel a little calmer.

 This time, he planned to throw a sword directly in.

 The tip of Xu Junyu's sword directly collided with the tips of Chen Yao's two swords.

 The immortal sword rushed forward with a torrent of sword energy, and the doors and windows shattered with a "crackle".

 A few old yet mischievous laughs were heard, and soon disappeared into the darkness of the room.

 The yellow eyes fell into darkness as the doors and windows shattered.

 After staring at the dark doors and windows for a long time, Chen Yao and Xu Junyu stepped forward.

 "Let's not go in anymore... You've already angered them..."

 Jin Yiluo pleaded softly.

 Xu Junyu looked at the immortal sword in his hand and said, "Luo'er, do you know anything about this place?"

 "No...what can I know...I'm just scared..."

 Jin Yiluo's words were not entirely true, and Xu Junyu looked at Chen Yao.

 Chen Yao said, "Uncle Jin, if you know anything, it's better to tell us. This will save us from getting into trouble later."

 "I have no idea……"

 Xu Junyu snorted: "You can say it or not, but you will be the one taking the lead later."

 She felt the sword of the magic sword tremble, but Jin Yiluo didn't say anything else.

 Xu Junyu frowned, feeling that something was increasingly wrong. She knew her best friend well. When had this crazy girl ever been so timid?

 It only means that this place is definitely unusual.

 "But why did Ling Ning ask us to come here?"

 She raised the question again.

 Chen Yao didn't know what was going on either, so he used his sword to pick up a broken lantern and walked into the dark room with Xu Junyu.

 The light of the lantern was dim, but

 As soon as I entered the house, it became even dimmer, and the dim flames turned into green.

 The darkness in the entire room pressed down like a tangible entity.

 Xu Junyu clenched the trembling sword in his hand, looked at the small hand tightly held by Chen Yao, and pursed his lips slightly.
