Chapter 173 - God Raven

A gentle breeze felt like pulsing from Tang Mingming's image. Chuan Nayi was having these thoughts of forgiving him, and something was trying to draw her in. However, Chuan Nayi had experienced the most terrifying. Right now, she was only quiet because it was her first time to stare at another very humanesque ghost. Guangru and Ye Ling were like this as well, but the weeper grew more powerful to get that.

Did it mean that this… Tang Mingming… had been in the same level as Ye Ling now? It's just that… he felt more powerful and terrifying. Moreover, this Tang Mingming had just killed a human casually for his belly. Ye Ling probably was barred from killing if they're not talking life or death.

In the end, Chuan Nayi only lowered her eyes. "Let's talk some other time. We can't do it in front of everyone else..." She decided not to talk to Tang Mingming in public. Right now, she still wanted to keep secrets and minimize the possibilities of the psychics thinking that she and Li Feng were freaks. She didn't want to go through the horror of being played with and driven to her death.

"I understand." Tang Mingming only assented before humming and looking around. "You should just wait here. Things had been crawling around. Guangru's angry aura would be enough to keep everyone else wary of coming here." Strangely, he saw that the greater ghost that came with Guangru was still there. Its huge eye kept on staring at the humans. "Hey, you! Don't think about it..."

"…give…" Old Doctor did follow Guangru around, but the child had moved away just like that. If Old Doctor was careful, he could find his way back to Liu Xiaodan. However, he was here to do something. He then began to gag, and he ended up vomiting a pile of red walkie-talkies. Guangru noticed that the psychics were looking for them so he kept on taking what he could find in case Li Feng or Chuan Nayi needed more of these.

Chuan Nayi twitched. So that's why she couldn't find anything; this ghost was eating the red things. She then frowned. "Is that supposed to be for us? Next time, you don't have to collect anything. Others needed those things, too." However, she smiled. "But thank you for your concern… erm… did Xiaodan give you a name?"

"Old Doctor..." The greater ghost stared at Chuan Nayi. She smiled so kindly just like the master.

"Eh, that's a weird name." Tang Mingming frowned and then shrugged. He had no idea about Liu Xiaodan's naming sense or if Liu Xiaodan didn't bother giving it a human name because it was clearly not human. As for Guangru, he had a feeling that the child had always looked like one so Liu Xiaodan mistook it as a demon of human origins. Actually, even that Qiao Shan girl thought that Guangru used to be a human spirit.

He then pranced and held onto Old Doctor. "You can stay here until your time runs out. We're going now… so you can relax." He pulled Old Doctor away, and the weaker ghost couldn't say no. Old Doctor was barely recovering his greater ghost power, but Tang Mingming was already transcending into a King. Perhaps more human blood and souls would be needed for that to happen.

However, Tang Mingming paused and looked back at the group in the distance. His purple eyes grew dim, but a furious glint flashed across his eyes. "Old Doctor, I need you to remember those faces around the miss and Feng'er. The next time they entered this place, we strike. Heh, do they think I will let them off for feeding the miss to me? And merely standing there in fright while letting Feng'er fight on his own?"

"Humans… fear… they're scared..." Old Doctor was confused, but the glint in the almost-King's eyes was scary. Moreover, if he was being asked by Tang Mingming to eat humans, he wouldn't deny that he would like that. It's just that Tang Mingming's pretty face contorted in anger. "Scared? Some of them are clearly high-grade shaman. They're just pretending so Feng'er will die.

"I'm a spirit nourished by a prison setting, Old Doctor. I'm receptive of fear, anger… and most of all… resentment."

…

When the spirits had left, everyone was just seated on the ground while waiting. The number of walkie-talkies brought by Old Doctor even had a surplus. However, none of them took more than they should. Chuan Nayi and Li Feng sat next to each other. Li Feng kept on rubbing his arms—and dazzling women—because he ripped his shirt earlier to stop the bleeding. The Treatment Hall was unnaturally cold from the abundance of ghosts.

Chuan Nayi only had a sweater on so she didn't have a jacket to share. Moreover, the temperature in the Lodging Hall was well-regulated. None of these people were prepared for the cold. Now that they needed to spend fifty more minutes inside, the people were starting to huddle like chicks. The girls would stick against one another while the boys would be wary of getting too close.

Tak, tak, tak. The sound of cl.i.c.k.i.n.g heels echoed from a far side, and everyone grew pale. If it turned out to be another ghost, they wouldn't know what to do. However, what was walked within their view was a beautiful girl in a rather nice white sweater and skinny denim jeans. Her clear eyes then glittered upon seeing them. Seeing that she was wearing white slippers, they didn't know why they heard heels cl.i.c.k.i.n.g.

"I found you!" Qiao Shan's mellow voice echoed before she turned to her side. "Jin, they're here! Guys, I found some live ones! They're probably more than ten over here!"

"Holy shit! No wonder this place smells." Ruan Jin jogged out of the corner before jogging to get to the psychics. "Guys, are you alright?! Anyone hurt among you? Erm, we're from the other project. They asked us to find you guys one by one. It's not yet time, but we're fetching you! Come on now, you're all okay—!"

One of the girls cried out. "No! If it's just you guys, then what's our guarantee that we won't be eaten by those monsters?! You didn't see what we just went through! Okay?! How can we be okay?!" A lot of them agreed with her, bombarding Ruan Jin with questions while the rest of the RS Noah group walked closer.

A click from the tongue came from one girl from the Qiao family. "Tch, don't bother with them, Brother Jin. If they don't want to go back to the Lodging Hall, then let's go on our own."

"…dammit. Fine, do what you like." Ruan Jin twisted his lips before taking his jacket off and tossing it at Li Feng. "Li Feng, Nayi, let's go. They don't want to come."

"Don't blame them. We met a King." Li Feng wore the jacket, but he couldn't close it. He carried Chuan Nayi in his arms and then regarded Qiao Shan. "That black bird is probably stronger than the King in the girl's dorm. Let's be careful. Even if we have Hop, I don't think we can get away unscathed."

"Black bird?" Qiao Shan somewhat trembled, same with the Qiao disciples. "You… you met God Raven?"
