The evil ghost guards looked at each other, and one of them picked up the rubble on the ground.
They searched around vigilantly and returned to their original position after finding nothing unusual.
After they left, four people walked out from a remote corner not far away.
The noise was caused by Wu Leng accidentally kicking a stone.
Chen Yan transmitted a message to them, "Act according to the plan. You will help me buy time for now. Once I successfully infiltrate the Ghost Palace and obtain that important item, I will remove the Soul Binding Order for you. Then we can escape the Thirteenth Level of Purgatory together."
After hearing this, Wu Leng still felt doubtful and uneasy.
His face was gloomy as water, and he demanded through voice transmission, "Why can't you release us from the Soul Binding Order first? Without it, we'll be able to escape more easily if the situation changes. If this operation fails and you're captured, do you expect us to die with you?"
Obviously, Wu Leng did not fully trust Chen Yan's arrangements.
Chen Yan's voice turned cold. "If you don't trust me, you can withdraw from this operation, but I won't release the Soul Binding Order for you."
"You!" Wu Leng was furious, but helpless.
Chen Yan looked at him coldly, "If we release the Soul Binding Order now, the Ghost King will definitely notice. By then, let alone me trying to obtain the item from the Ghost Palace, even if we want to escape, it will be too late."
Wu Leng calmed down a little.
He was extremely dissatisfied with Chen Yan, but she happened to be the one in charge.
Wu Leng didn't know what she wanted, nor could he get any information out of her, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I hope you can get it done as soon as possible."
Qi Yan looked at Shen Yan worriedly, “Miss Shen, can you do it alone?”
"Don't worry." Chen Yan nodded.
Ji also frowned, and just as he was about to say something, he heard her voice transmission: "I still have nine turns."
After hearing this, Ji felt a little relieved.
Soon, Wu Leng, Qi Yan and Ji took action separately.
Chen Yan, on the other hand, headed cautiously towards the Ghost Palace.
In the ghost town, there are evil ghost guards almost everywhere.
Therefore, if you are not careful, you will be discovered.
As Chen Yan got closer and closer to the Ghost Palace, more and more evil ghost guards surrounded her. She only needed her breath to become disordered for a moment, and she attracted the attention of several evil ghost guards.
"who?!"
They flashed and came over here to search.
However, nothing unusual was found.
After they left, Chen Yan came out of the supernatural space.
at the same time--
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the ghost town. The sound was like thunder out of the blue, breaking the originally gloomy and silent atmosphere.
The noise of the commotion actually came from three different directions, one after another, echoing each other.
This huge noise instantly aroused the vigilance of many evil ghost guards in the ghost town. At the moment when these evil ghost guards' attention was attracted, a figure quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys, approaching the ghost palace at an extremely fast speed.
Chen Yan nimbly avoided obstacles along the way that might reveal her whereabouts. She clung to the wall, raised her head slightly, and stared at the magnificent yet sinister ghost palace not far ahead.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar building in front of him, Chen Yan couldn't help but recall past memories.
She once lived here...
Time has passed, and now she has returned here again, but with a purpose.
After calming her thoughts, Chen Yan took a deep breath and raised her hand. A powerful ghost power instantly condensed in her hand. Then, she swung her arm without hesitation and fiercely bombarded a house not far away with this ghost power.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the house was blown to pieces in an instant like it was made of paper, with wood chips and bricks flying everywhere.
"Oh no, there is an enemy attack!" With the loud noise, the evil ghost guards outside the Ghost Palace picked up their weapons and rushed towards the direction of the explosion.
Chen Yan quickly took advantage of this opportunity, avoided their pursuit, and successfully sneaked into the Ghost Palace.
Relying on her vague memory, she traveled throughout the Ghost Palace.
Once a guard discovered her presence, she hid in the supernatural space.
The guards who noticed Chen Yan's figure showed expressions of surprise and doubt. Could it be that they were dazzled?
Today, there is chaos in the ghost town.
A guard hurried to report the matter to Wei Pan, one of the six evil ghosts.
Wei Pan was alarmed, and the first thing he did was to order the Ghost Palace to be strictly guarded, especially the bedroom of the Ghost King.
Wei Pan was thin and half of his face was disfigured, as if it had been burned or scalded. He looked very young and was wearing a plain white robe, giving people a sinister and vicious feeling.
He narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: Not long after the Ghost King left, a riot broke out in the Ghost Town...
Suddenly, his expression changed and he quickly dodged towards the Ghost King's bedroom.
After a while, he arrived outside the Ghost King's bedroom.
The evil ghosts guarding outside the bedroom were startled when they saw Wei Pan, and saluted him in unison.
"Greetings to Lord Wei Pan!"
"Has anyone been here?" Wei Pan's voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
"To reply to Lord Wei Pan, no."
Wei Pan frowned suddenly, he quickly pushed open the door of the bedroom, then stepped in, looking around sharply.
The evil ghost guards' faces changed in shock, and they quickly said, "Master Wei Pan, this is the Ghost King's bedroom. You cannot enter without the Ghost King's permission!"
Wei Pan acted as if he didn't hear anything and walked straight into the depths of the bedroom.
The guards were shocked and horrified when they saw this.
"Master Wei Pan, if you don't come out, don't blame us for being rude!"
Wei Pan stopped, raised his head slightly, and fixed his eyes on the huge and mysterious mural in front of him.
The picture depicts a woman who is wearing a long black dress embroidered with intricate totems. She is sitting on a chair stained with blood. Her figure is graceful, yet exudes a majesty that makes people dare not approach her easily.
The woman's eyes were cold and sharp, her face was solemn and stern, revealing a strong murderous aura, revealing her domineering nature, and looking down on the world.
Just one glance made Wei Pan feel a stinging pain in his eyes, as if he could not resist the powerful pressure from the woman in the mural. He immediately closed his eyes.
When the pain in his eyes subsided, his gaze fell on a certain part of the mural. When he found nothing unusual, he felt relieved.
He left the bedroom on his own initiative.
As he walked out of the bedroom, he couldn't help but look back.
He always felt that there seemed to be someone else inside.
Crunch——
The door to the bedroom slowly closed.
The moment it was completely closed, the light in the bedroom dimmed.
At the same time, a figure appeared out of nowhere in front of the mural.
She looked up at the huge mural, and after seeing the face of the woman in the mural clearly, her heart was filled with huge waves.
This is——
Her previous life.
