Chapter 23 Calm and Tranquil



On the way back, Fatty Wang was grinning from ear to ear!

"Hahaha, if Heaven had not given birth to King Xu An, the Spirit Realm would have been shrouded in eternal darkness!"

Crack!

Fatty Wang kept snapping his fingers, each time.

A burst of electricity crackled and popped from his fingertips.

"Hehe, Chen Chu, from now on, Fatty will take you to eat and drink the best food!"

Faced with Wang Pangzi's boasting, Chen Chu could only smile helplessly.

Since he's family, let him be.

Everyone else had gotten used to Fatty Wang's arrogance.

Who at Jiangcheng University doesn't know that boastful Fatty Wang?

On the first day of school, a freshman boasted so much that he stunned the teachers.

"Let's hurry back. I wonder how things are in town now."

At this moment, Lu Xiuyu said something.

All eyes were on Chen Chu.

Chen Chu has now become the leader of the group.

After all, Chen Chu saved all of their lives.

"Half of the newly awakened students will return with us, while the other half will take care of the students who haven't awakened yet and escort them to town!"

There were no objections to this decision.

This ordeal awakened more than twenty students, which is quite remarkable.

Ten people separated from the group and followed Chen Chu and his group, rushing quickly into the town.

The remaining dozen or so people accompanied the dozens of students who had not yet awakened, heading into the town.

On the way back, Chen Chu suddenly stopped and looked at the bushes beside him.

Everyone was stunned, wondering what Chen Chu was going to do.

"Come out, stop hiding!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an old Taoist priest emerged from the bushes with an embarrassed smile on his face.

"It was you!"

Lu Xiuyu looked surprised; the old Taoist priest had run away as soon as the fight started.

I never expected them to be hiding here.

"It's absolutely not that I abandoned you. I ate something bad and just had diarrhea!"

Let's go!

Chen Chu didn't say much.

Although this old Taoist priest is afraid of death, he has a wide range of knowledge, so having him around might be of some use.

Moreover, Chen Chuxin already had a vague feeling about it.

The old Taoist priest might be the NPC who guides them through the dungeon.

The group set off again, heading towards the town.

When they came to Tianxing Forest before, Chen Chu and the others thought they would arrive in no time.

Now, with some newly awakened students along, the pace has actually slowed down.

It took them a full half hour to get back to the town.

As soon as they got back, they realized something was wrong.

"Wait a minute, where are the spirits and ghosts here?"

Qi Dacheng looked up at the sky above the town.

Tonight, it was as if nothing had happened.

The moon was bright and the stars were few.

The scene was completely different from the dark clouds and thick fog that had enveloped the sky before their arrival.

"No matter what, let's go back to the Prince's residence first."

Chen Chu also found it a bit strange.

As the crowd walked down the street, they could even hear the murmurs of residents in their sleep from the houses on both sides.

And the barking of dogs in the yard, the crying of children at night, and so on.

It felt like a very normal, cozy little town.

But the fact that it looks fine is the biggest problem.

Those spirits could not have disappeared without warning.

Do you know why this is happening?

Chen Chu looked at Zhang Tianshi standing to the side.

The old Taoist priest, having recovered from his thoughtful expression, said...

"I'm not quite sure either. Perhaps those spirits have already left."

"No, you old Taoist priest, you're lying!"

Fatty Wang looked the old Taoist priest up and down, then asked in confusion.

"This old man is acting very strangely."

"You little rascal, what's wrong with me?" The old Taoist priest looked at Fatty Wang's face as he leaned closer and quickly took two steps back.

"You've just arrived in town, and your eyes are already wandering everywhere. Is that normal?"

"And he was muttering something to himself, his fingers were constantly twitching."

Fatty Wang sneered, "I knew from the start that you, old Taoist priest, were not normal. Chen Chu, just kill him. What if he's a spy sent by the other side!"

Chen Chu nodded coldly, "That's right. Since keeping them around is useless anyway, we might as well just kill them!"

The two men's back-and-forth banter made the old Taoist priest's heart skip a beat.

Moreover, as he spoke, a ball of green flame appeared in Chen Chu's pupils.

"Hey, hey, don't be so impulsive. I'll tell you, old Taoist, okay?"

The old Taoist priest quickly begged for mercy.

He clearly remembered the scene of Chen Chu descending to earth like a god and brutally beating the level three Wind-Hunting Tiger.

"Those spirits that just disappeared are most likely hiding. The place I was looking at just now was a place on the street where the yin energy was particularly heavy."

The old Taoist priest quickly explained.

"They might still be hiding here."

Chen Chu asked, "Did you discover anything?"

"Well... we haven't found anything yet."

As soon as the old Taoist priest finished speaking, seeing that Chen Chu was about to lash out, he hurriedly added another sentence.

"Don't rush. If it were that easy to find out, would we be afraid of them?"

Chen Chu nodded and said, "Fatty, keep an eye on him. If that old guy makes any move, beat him up!"

"Hehe, okay, Fatty loves doing this kind of thing the most!"

Fatty Wang grinned maliciously at the old Taoist priest, "Behave yourself!"
