Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Leech?”
MO Chengfeng focused his gaze and saw a leech the size of a pinky lying flat on a branch, waiting for its prey to approach.
This side was wet and slippery, and there was water under his feet. No wonder leeches would breed.
MO Ruyue suddenly hugged MO Chengfeng even tighter. “Senior Brother, let’s choose another path. Look at the ground!”
Mo Chengfeng had already seen it.
The ground was covered with horsetails, and there were even leeches on the tree trunks on both sides.
This scene made MO Chengfengs scalp tingle.
He had never encountered such a situation before.
He stepped back.
Perhaps it had alarmed the leeches, as they began to squirm.
“Senior Brother, let’s run. The two of us can’t be bitten by these little things. Otherwise, it’ll be disgraceful.”
MO Ruyue whispered.
After saying that, she turned around and ran back.
After running a few steps, she did not sense Mo Chengfeng following her.
MO Ruyue couldn’t help but stop in her tracks. She turned to look at MO
Chengfengs back and said,” Senior Brother, why aren’t you running?” “We are demonic cultivators, how can we escape?”
“Senior Brother, let’s run. These things are too disgusting. It’s not that we can’t beat them, but they’re so disgusting that I don’t want to deal with them.”
If he couldn’t win, then it was absolutely impossible.
There were plenty of ways to deal with those leeches.
However, she felt that it was too disgusting and did not want to make a move at all.
“Junior Sister, just you wait. Senior Brother will fly you over.”
“Don’t. I feel like there are leeches ahead. I don’t want to take this path.” MO Ruyue was traumatized by leeches.
This thing could parasitize the human body. He had seen a piece of news before. A leech parasitized in a woman’s nose or brain. A bloodied leech that wasn’t mosaicked was picked up by tweezers.
MO Ruyue was not used to the scene.
The leeches were still alive!
Seeing that MO Ruyue was afraid, MO Chengfeng could only give up.
Let’s walk another road.’
He had thought that this junior sister had nothing to be afraid of. It seemed that there was something to be afraid of.
Along the way, Hillghost had been quietly following behind the two of them. “Senior Brother, do you feel something following behind you?” MO Ruyue looked behind her but did not find anything. MO Chengfeng also turned around and don’t think so.”
“Maybe I’m thinking too much.”
MO Ruyue retracted her gaze and continued walking forward.
After crossing two mountains, a small town appeared at the foot of the mountain.
“There’s a small town here!”
Mo Ruyue looked excited. A small town meant that there was food there.
The four grilled fish from before had all been snatched by Hillghost, so he was still a little hungry.
Wild fruits could not resist hunger.
“Let’s go down and take a look.”
MO Chengfeng looked at the small town at the foot of the mountain and revealed a trace of surprise.
He and Ruyue indeed needed a good rest.
The two of them quickened their pace and ran down the mountain.
Looking at the people in the town, MO Ruyue’s beautiful eyes were filled with hunger.
His eyes were almost green from hunger.
Of course, she didn’t want to eat people.
As long as there were people, it meant that there was food.
Seeing that the sun had already set, it was a good time to stay here tonight. MO Chengfeng looked at the pillar beside him and saw a white lantern hanging on it.
“Junior Sister…”
Just as he was about to ask his junior sister to wait a while before entering, he realized that she had already entered.
He looked around and realized that there was no way out of this place. How could there be a small town here?
Originally, there were a lot of folk rumors in the Sishui area.
It was better to be careful.
It would not be good if he encountered a man-eating monster.
MO Ruyue took a few steps forward and felt a trace of strangeness.
The people around her seemed to treat her as air, walking past her without even looking at her.
Mo Ruyue held the ghost thought tightly with her left hand and silently took
out a brick from her backpack with her right hand.
MO Chengfeng caught up with her. He looked at the weapon in MO Ruyue’s hand and said in a low ?also feel that something is wrong?”
“Yeah, I was so hungry that I forgot to think.” she said calmly.
How could he think so much when he was hungry?
He just wanted to eat some meat to reward his stomach.
Poor stomach, it had suffered with her.
“There seems to be something wrong here. Those people can’t see us!”
MO Ruyue whispered.
She stood there without moving.
MO Chengfeng grabbed MO Ruyue’s wrist and said,””Let’s go out.”
“Alright.”
MO Ruyue stepped back.
It was not easy to see a small town, but the town was strange.
The two of them left the town and walked far away.
When night fell, the original town disappeared.
All that was left was a lawn.
“The town has disappeared!”
MO Ruyue felt goosebumps on her back as she approached MO Chengfeng.
At this moment, she deeply suspected that MO Chengfeng had led her the wrong way. Other than the two disciples from the immortal sects, she had not met anyone alive along the way.
He had even encountered such a strange thing.
She was not afraid of ghosts in the past, but now she was afraid of ghosts again.
“Yes, I am.”
“Senior Brother, I’m not a qualified Saintess. I’m afraid of leeches, and I’m afraid of that thing!’
MO Ruyue whispered.
MO Ruyue did not dare to utter the word ‘ghost’.
It was pitch black around her, and she was extremely scared.
Mo Chengfeng choked and said in a low voice,””To be honest, Shixiong is also a little scared.’
“Then why don’t we go and wait outside the Sishui River? We’ll go to whoever gets the Heaven-cleaving Sword. At that time, it won’t be just the two of us who get the Heaven-cleaving Sword.”
MO Ruyue thought that MO Chengfeng was not afraid.
There was no one else who was timid.
“l think Junior Sister Ruyue is right.”
MO Chengfeng nodded.
“Senior Brother, can you tell me why you’re so calm when you’re so scared? I thought you weren’t scared!”
“This is all an act. The more afraid you are, the closer that thing will get to you.”
In short, he was just pretending to be calm. “Junior Sister, don’t pat my shoulder.” MO Chengfeng said.”
Senior Brother, I didn’t pat your shoulder!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them felt a chill run down their backs.
“Ah..”
“Ah…”
“Ah…”
Three voices rang out.
Mo Ruyue shouted.
MO Chengfeng shouted as well.
There was also the sound of an animal.
Hillghost was so frightened that it climbed up the tree.
“Senior Brother, there’s a ghost!”
“Junior Sister, run!”
Mo Chengfeng had lost his usual calmness, and Mo Ruyue had lost her saintess demeanor.
The two of them screamed in fear.
He stared at the moonlight and ran forward.
He had completely forgotten that he was a demonic cultivator.
After a while, MO Ruyue and MO Chengfeng finally stopped.
“Senior Brother, did you see what the ghost looked like?”
“It’s too dark, I can’t see it.” MO Chengfeng shook his head.
“We can’t let others know that the two of us are so useless and scared by ghosts. Otherwise, where will our face be?”
MO Ruyue felt embarrassed, but fortunately, MO Chengfeng was there to accompany her.
The two of them were usually quite bold, but now they were frightened by the ghost.
“Let’s keep it a secret.”
MO Chengfeng looked at MO Ruyue with his deep eyes. Actually, he was not that afraid.
Ghosts couldn’t hurt him, but people would.
It was just that the atmosphere was just right, and everything happened naturally.
The feeling of being together with his junior sister was very wonderful. It was a wonderful feeling that he could not describe.
“Alright, let’s keep it a secret. Pinky swear!”
MO Ruyue stretched out her hand. If people knew about her cowardly side, wouldn’t she be laughed at to death?
MO Ruyue felt especially humiliated today. She had encountered the thing she feared the most in her life.
Leeches, and that thing..
