“What did you say?!” Mushui City lord was shocked. He grabbed the guard’s clothes so hard that it was as if the soldier had lied, he would take his small life.
“City Lord, it’s true. The guards have surrounded the two towns. Please go and see!” That guard anxiously urged.
“Damn it!” Mushui City Lord three the guard down and ran out. The guard immediately followed.
Sima You Yue and the group looked at each other. They all stood up and followed up after checkout.
They were not the only ones that followed. Many people in the teahouse also checked out and left together. When they went out, there were people who were attracted over by the news. They all headed in the same direction, and so they were not worried about going the wrong way at all.
After going outside of Mushui City, everyone chose to fly midair. If they couldn’t fly, they summoned flying beasts, and arrived at one of the towns after half a day.
At this point, people outside couldn’t enter because the soldiers surrounded the town.
Sima You Yue and them descended from their flying beasts. Through the guards, they could see some blood faintly.
“You Yue, it’s so bloody here.” Bei Gong Tang frowned.
“Mm, I believe there aren’t many alive.” Sima You Yue commented.
“That’s what Red Mountain Peak looks like? People in every town are massacred?” Fatty Qu asked.
“It’s strange.” Sima You Ran murmured. “There are no traces of spirit power used here.”
“Those people died without resistance?”
“Should be so.”
“It’s a pity we can’t see the situation inside. I don’t know what’s going on.”
“I think since the soldiers are guarding here, other places aren’t?” Sima You Yue said.
“Other places?”
“The territory is so vast. It’s impossible for everyone to live in this small town. Let’s go and see if there are other places in the nearby village that have the same situation.” Sima You Yue suggested.
“That’s right! Let’s go look elsewhere.” Sima You Le agreed. “If this town is like this, then other places shouldn’t be spared. Let’s go find one nearby.”
There were many people who shared such thoughts. Since those people couldn’t see the town, they turned around and left.
SIma You Yue and the group flew in one direction at random, and after flying for half a day, they caught sight of a small village. Before they approached, they smelled a thick bloody smell.
“There is also a case here!” Fatty Qu shouted.
“Let’s descend.”
Sima You YUe patted Halcyon’s back and Halcyon took everyone downward.
“There’s no sign of breathing.” Feng Yi said solemnly.
With their strength, they could tell the general situation inside with a single glance.
“Let’s go in and take a look. Let’s hope to find some clues.” Sima You Yue said.
They walked into the village. Bodies were scattered in front of the houses, and each of them died miserably. Hearts were dug out of the children.
Along the way, they could tell that the strength of these people weren’t high. Many were ordinary civilians that did not cultivate. Those who were cultivators weren’t strong.
“These people died terribly. The expressions on each face are all terrified. It seemed that they were scared before death. Especially the children, their internal organs are gone.” Sima You Ming said sadly.
Sima You Yue’s face was gloomy, and she was distressed by the misery in front of her. Those children were still so young. They had not had the chance to explore the colorful world. They were killed by unknown things and died so miserably.
“You Yue, how did these people die? These wounds don’t seem to be done by human’s spirit power or by spirit beasts.” Fatty Qu asked.
Sima You Yue squatted down. She took out a pair of silk gloves and wore them, and then flipped over the body in front of her.
“It’s really strange.” Sima You Yue said.
“Fifth Bro, what did you find?” Sima You Le asked.
“Feng Yi, Feng Er, you have learned a lot from master. Can you see any abnormalities?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Looking at the blood they shed, they should have been killed last night. But their wounds rotted as they had died a long time ago. This is unreasonable.” Feng Yi answered.
“It is unreasonable.” Sima You Yue turned over the corpses twice. She stood up and took off the gloves on her hands. She spoke, “These wounds are lingering with aura of death. And…”
“And what?” Fatty Qu asked.
“And they were sucked dried of essence when they died. So their bodies looked as if they had died for several days. And because the wounds were of direct contact, they seemed to be rotten for a long time.” Sima You Yue concluded.
“Sucked dried of essence?” Everyone took a breath. “What creatures can suck people’s essence?”
“And there is still an aura of death lingering in the wounds. It’s too strange!”
“Brother Feng Yi, do you know what can make them look like this?” Sima You Qi asked.
“Ordinary creatures can’t cause this kind of harm to people.” Feng Yi replied. “I haven’t seen it before, but I have heard of something similar.”
“What instances, what caused it?” Wei Zi Qi asked.
“It’s the ghost clan.” Sima You Yue answered..
“That’s right.” Feng Yi said. “I just heard that people who were killed by the ghost clan would have an aura of death lingering in their wounds. But this is the first time I’m seeing it.”
“People of the ghost clan? Why are they here? Wasn’t it said that the ghost clan cannot leave the Ghost Realm and come to the other continents?” Ouyang Fei asked in amazement.
“It’s not impossible to come.” Feng Yi gave a deep look at Sima You Yue, and replied, “People of the Ghost Realm only need to find the right method, and they could come.”
That year, wasn’t her mother one of those….
Sima You Yue summoned Little Dream.
“Yue Yue.” Little Dream came out and rushed into Sima You Yue’s arms.
Sima You Yue rubbed Little Dream’s head. “Little Dream, take a look. Are there any abnormalities in these corpses?”
“Okay.” Little Dream came down from her arms. She crouched down and sniffed in front of the corpse, and said, “Their souls are gone.”
“Souls are gone? What does that mean?” Sima You Le asked.
“It’s gone! What else can it mean!” Little Dream said. “When these people die, their souls are sucked out.”
“Don’t their souls all go to the Ghost Realm after people die?”
“No, coming out is not the same as being sucked out.” Little Dream explained. “After death, the body muscles will be more relaxed as the soul leaves. The muscles of these people are obviously tight, indicating that the soul did not come after death, but it was sucked out before they died.”
“Sucking souls. This is a bit like the soul eater I encountered before!” Fatty Qu exclaimed.
“It’s different.” Feng Yi spoke, “Soul gnawing beasts are devil beasts of the devil realm. They can suck souls after death. As for the people of the ghost clan, they can suck any kinds of soul.”
