Amber: "Last night, Director Xia from the Running Man program submitted an application to explore the SSS+ haunted house in Mingcheng. Director Xiao of Mingcheng reported the matter to me overnight. I thought that with Xiao Wan around, the matter of the SSS+ haunted house in Mingcheng that has been bothering me for many years might come to an end, so I agreed."
Both Elder Cui and Chairman Lan felt a chill run down their spines after hearing Amber's words.
Then, the two of them looked at each other, their expressions shifting in complex ways, before finally speaking one after the other.
Old Cui: "Are you confused? You have no idea how terrifying that place is. How could you agree so easily without consulting us at all?"
President Lan: "Amber, you did a very bad job with this. Wan Jiao is indeed very powerful; all of us old folks combined are no match for her. But as for what's inside that haunted house, you... you still know nothing about it."
Amber was stunned.
Wan Jiao's abilities are among the most formidable in the metaphysical world for hundreds of years. With such strength, surely she could enter a haunted house...
"Elder Cui, former chairman, what do you mean by that?"
"Sigh." Old Cui sighed, but he was speaking to Chairman Lan, "Old Lan, you speak."
President Lan didn't sigh, but his face clearly showed a serious expression of "It's all over, it's all over."
Amber was so anxious that she was completely bewildered.
He took several deep breaths, and seeing that Chairman Lan still didn't intend to speak, he couldn't help but urge him, "Old Chairman, please say something. Your serious expression and silence are making me really nervous."
President Lan had almost finished preparing the matter of the SSS+ haunted house in Mingcheng. Now that Amber was urging him, he naturally didn't delay any longer and said, "The things inside that haunted house are mysterious and unpredictable. If it weren't for a formation that trapped the evil ghosts that had committed heinous crimes for thousands of years, they would have come out to wreak havoc on the world long ago."
"A thousand-year-old demon with heinous crimes?" Amber could hardly believe her ears. "It...they?"
President Lan nodded, "Two ancient evil spirits that have existed for at least 5,000 years. They have devoured many demons and monsters and are extremely powerful. That formation cannot hold them for long."
A thousand-year-old vengeful ghost is already troublesome, but a thousand-year-old evil ghost, or one that has existed for more than 5,000 years... Amber couldn't even imagine what would happen if they really came out of the formation.
(Note: Many books say that vengeful ghosts are powerful, but after researching the differences between the two types of ghosts, I've concluded that evil ghosts are actually more powerful. So please just take this with a grain of salt and don't take it too seriously. Love you all!)
As Amber pondered, President Lan spoke again.
"Back then, Old Cui and I led over a hundred sorcerers into that haunted house. Only five of us came out; the rest were devoured by them, which greatly increased their cultivation, causing the array trapping them to collapse at any moment. Wan Jiao's cultivation is what it is; if she can truly subdue them if she goes in, that's fine, but once..."
President Lan did not continue speaking.
And Amber understood what he meant.
He pondered for five or six seconds with a heavy expression, then said with great certainty, "Xiao Wan can definitely handle them. Didn't I already say she's a level ten Xuan Master, extremely powerful!"
Listening to Amber's words, Elder Cui and Chairman Lan really felt the urge to punch him.
That brat, he's truly fearless because he's ignorant.
Enraged, Old Cui lost his temper and slapped Anbo hard on the back of the head. "You brat, that's a thousand-year-old evil spirit. Even in the heyday of the entire metaphysical world, when level ten metaphysical masters were everywhere, you can't underestimate them, let alone now when the spiritual energy is so thin?"
Old Cui hit Amber, but he didn't care.
The words of Elder Cui echoed in his ears again and again: "Even during the heyday of the entire metaphysical world, when level ten metaphysical masters were everywhere, they should not be underestimated."
So... what does this mean?
Does this mean that even if Wan Jiao is a level 10 Xuan Master, the strongest person in the current Xuan world, she still can't deal with those two thousand-year-old evil ghosts? If that's really the case, then wasn't he making a huge mistake by taking it upon himself to agree to let the Running Man program team go on an adventure to the Ming City SSS+ haunted house?
Instantly, Amber felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, leaving her feeling chilled from head to toe.
His lips parted slightly, and it took him a long time to utter a complete question.
"Is it too late for me to tell them not to go now?"
As soon as Amber finished speaking, President Lan threw his phone at her, pointed at the 24-hour live stream of Running Man, and angrily said, "The people are already at the door."
Hearing the sound, Amber lowered her eyes to look.
Oh, it really is!
In the live stream, Wan Jiao and her group were standing directly in front of the SSS+ haunted house in Mingcheng. The sign above could be clearly seen in the camera: No entry without permission!
Amber's legs went weak, and she collapsed onto the chair, almost crying in her distress.
"It's all over, I've become the sinner of the whole world."
Elder Cui and Chairman Lan were noticeably calmer than Amber. After exchanging a glance, they each made phone calls to call for reinforcements. Two minutes later, after finishing their calls, the two looked at Amber, who was still muttering to himself, "I deserve to die." "We're going to Mingcheng to support Wanjiao. Are you coming?"
Amber wiped the sweat from her face, stood up excitedly, and overturned her chair. "Go!"
…
The journey from the villa to the SSS+ haunted house in Mingcheng was quite long, and everyone, from the production crew to the sisters, took a nap. Only Wan Jiao's nap was a different kind of nap.
While she was resting with her eyes closed, she used a paper doll to teleport to another place and summon the Black and White Impermanence.
The last time they took Fu Ting away, the Black and White Impermanence didn't find a suitable opportunity to ask Wan Jiao if she had regained her memory. This time, when they saw her, they were determined to ask her.
After all... if our lord really regains her memories and knows who she is, then they can treat her appropriately, right?
Well, they don't want to offend our Lord and then get a severe beating when he returns to the Underworld in this life.
Just thinking about our Lord's countless and varied methods of tormenting ghosts makes even the Black and White Impermanence shudder!
Standing in front of Wan Jiao, the Black and White Impermanence pushed each other, neither of them making a sound.
Seeing their hesitant manner, Wan Jiao guessed that they probably had some doubts about whether she had remembered something, so she did not hide anything and took the initiative to say, "As you can see, I know that I am the reincarnation of Hades."
Neither Hei Wuchang nor Wan Jiao expected Wan Jiao to speak up. They were both stunned for a moment before kneeling down properly and performing a deep bow, saying, "Greetings, my lord."
Wan Jiao channeled her spiritual energy into her fingertips, helping the Black and White Impermanence up from the ground. At the same time, she got to the point, asking them, "What exactly happened in that haunted house? Which of you can tell us?"
Black Impermanence: "My lord, those two ghosts are serious criminals of the underworld. You secretly took them away back then, but later, for some unknown reason, you imprisoned them in Ming City, which is why..."
