Yang Sheng sized up the woman who had spoken.
The woman was dressed like a wandering swordsman, with a tall and outstanding figure. Although she looked somewhat travel-worn, she was still beautiful and had a heroic air about her.
Yang Sheng asked with a half-smile, "Why does this young lady say there's something wrong with this inn?"
The woman said quickly in a low voice, "It's very suspicious that there are inns in such remote and impoverished places. Sometimes no one comes for a whole month. How do they make a living? They probably have trouble even surviving."
I looked at the tire tracks and footprints on the path. They were left a long time ago and are now almost blurred and invisible. This proves that they haven't left the house for at least a month. Don't innkeepers need to go out to buy various kinds of food?
Furthermore, I smelled a strong stench of blood and decay in the kitchen!
Yang Sheng chuckled and said, "Maybe they're slaughtering livestock? It's normal for the kitchen to smell of blood, isn't it?"
The woman cursed, "Normal my ass! I can't be 100% sure, but it tastes exactly like human blood!"
In short, this place is not safe to linger. I am the ghostwriter for the Demon Extermination Alliance. You've all heard of the Demon Extermination Alliance, right?
Yang Sheng and Old Master Cui exchanged a glance and both nodded.
"You guys go first. I'll take care of whatever's in this inn, whether it's a ghost or a demon, so you don't get hurt!"
Before Yang Sheng and Cui Laodao could speak, the innkeeper and his wife came out carrying dishes.
The woman's expression changed, and she said in a deep voice, "If anything unexpected happens later, you should leave first."
Remember to seek help from the Yan Kingdom's Demon-Slaying Alliance branch. My name is Li Ruowei, and I'm a bronze-level ghostwriter in the Demon-Slaying Alliance!
When Li Ruowei spoke of being a bronze-level ghostwriter for the Demon Extermination Alliance, her tone was both proud and heroic.
She couldn't see through what was inside the inn, nor did she know its strength, so she had no choice but to take the risk.
Even so, she was still prepared to take action.
Old Master Cui clicked his tongue and exclaimed, "This little girl is quite interesting. She's also a junior in your Demon Extermination Alliance. Aren't you going to help her?"
Yang Sheng nodded and said, "That's right. She has some of the feeling of Old Master Zuo when he was young. If the Demon Extermination Alliance were all people with this kind of personality, there wouldn't be so many demons in this world now."
Unfortunately, he lacked both strength and experience, possessing only enthusiasm but lacking strategy, acting impulsively and without thinking.
Such a person won't live long.
Old Master Cui was speechless.
You've given such a harsh critique to this young girl; he must not have any women outside.
At this moment, the owner brought over a plate of fragrant cooked meat, and said with a smile, "Please try this meat, sir. It's freshly killed today."
Li Ruowei blocked the shopkeeper's path, drew her sword, and held it to his neck, coldly saying, "What kind of meat is this? It doesn't look like proper meat to me."
The boss still had a smiling expression on his face: "Miss, what you said doesn't make sense. The person is a decent person, so of course the meat is decent meat too."
If you're not eating, please don't disturb the other guests.
Li Ruowei's body trembled slightly. She wanted to make a move, but was horrified to find that she could not control her own body.
A look of fear appeared on her face; the male and female owners of this inn seemed to be more powerful than she had imagined.
At this moment, the proprietress, carrying a plate of meat, swayed her slender waist as she approached Yang Sheng and Cui Laodao, and said with a charming smile, "Please try this, it's our restaurant's signature dish!"
Yang Sheng said indifferently, "Signature dish? Boss lady, your signature dish is not very good. The meat is already rotten and you're still selling it?"
The proprietress's smile remained unchanged, but she was as stiff as a puppet.
Her once smooth skin now flowed down her face like melting candle wax, drop by drop.
"Sir, you should eat it. Once you eat it, you won't feel anything anymore, and the pain will subside."
Yang Sheng sneered, grabbed the proprietress by the neck, and shouted, "You audacious fiend, how dare you be so insolent in front of me?"
The proprietress screamed, and her skin and flesh melted away rapidly, revealing a bloody skeleton.
The skeleton had just unleashed a powerful, sinister force when Yang Sheng grabbed it by the neck and started swinging it around!
In an instant, a powerful burst of blood energy erupted, so powerful that even the ghostly green flames in the skull's eyes began to flicker in terror.
Bang!
With a loud bang, Yang Sheng slammed the skeleton that the landlady had transformed into against the wall, and the immense force instantly shattered the skeleton into dust.
The next moment, the Pure Lotus Karmic Fire burst forth, instantly incinerating the skeleton's yin spirit.
The boss's entire body melted away, revealing his skeletal appearance.
Li Ruowei discovered that she could move her body again, and the qi on her longsword suddenly erupted as she slashed at the skeleton.
However, the skeleton's bones were as hard as refined steel. When Li Ruowei slashed at them with her sword, she only left a white mark.
The next moment, the skeleton's gaze turned to Li Ruowei, and rings of bone spurs bloomed on its skeletal arm. A chilling aura enveloped Li Ruowei, rendering her unable to move once again.
This girl is incredibly reckless; the skeleton was able to subdue her in an instant, clearly indicating a significant skill gap between them.
So she should have fled immediately, but I didn't expect her to actually make a move.
Just as the bone spur was approaching her neck and Li Ruowei was in utter despair, a spear carrying a chilling, bloodthirsty power swept past her, piercing the skeleton and sending it flying, pinning it to the ground!
