There is absolutely no lantern more expensive than this one on the entire street.
It must have cost her a lot of money, right?
Fen Jue raised his eyes, ready to say something, when he suddenly realized that no matter how bright the phoenix lantern was, it couldn't compare to the woman in front of him.
Her smile is even more captivating.
"Why are you giving me things again?" He opened his mouth, but still asked the question that was on his mind.
Gingerbread pursed her lips, blushing, and said, "You gave me a lantern too, isn't it normal for me to return the favor?"
So that's how it is.
Fen Jue's gaze lingered on her face for a moment before he abruptly looked away, a slight smile playing on his lips as he said, "You know, this isn't the answer I'm looking for."
Um?
Her heart suddenly started racing.
Her lips moved slightly, and she was about to ask him what he meant when...
Sudden!
The whole street went dark.
A ghost, taller than a restaurant, appeared out of nowhere.
The monster had no flesh; its skeleton was covered with tattered, blood-soaked clothes.
Even from this distance, she could still smell the stench of the corpse.
"Xiao Jue, what is this?"
Fen Jue glanced at the ghost in the street: "Giant Corpse Ghost."
The giant ghoul opened its mouth and spewed out a gust of cold wind, its two skeletal legs dragging iron chains as it slowly walked.
The people screamed in terror and fled in all directions.
Just as Fen Jue was about to protect Jiang Bingbing and jump onto the roof of the restaurant, a second giant corpse ghost suddenly appeared.
Right behind gingerbread!
The giant ghoul roared menacingly at Gingerbread, spewing out a chilling wind that shattered the phoenix lantern in her hand.
With quick eyes and hands, Fen Jue scooped up the gingerbread and held it behind his back, staring at the giant corpse demon with hostility.
I glanced at the broken lantern.
His face was grim, and his tone was chilling: "You're asking for death."
