TY Chapter 30: Plague of the Vile Curse

The night wind whistles and the stream ripples, green bamboos sway and peach blossom trees shiver. Chen Lu walks towards the foot of the mountain and into the straw cottage.

The straw cottage is empty and silent. As usual, Lu Chen stares at the gray grass stem as it floats down before turning around to shut the door. He walks to his bed and lies on it.

In the darkness, the mysterious howling of the ghosts sounds outside the windows yet again. He lies silently in the shadow as it slowly consumes his body. Just like that, he seems to have submerged into a deep sleep.

As the night sky darkens and the wind cries, no one seems to remember the presence of this lonely straw cottage by the foot of the mountain. Even so, in a particular moment in the depths of the night, suddenly, in the straw cottage, at the darkest corner concealed by the shadows, a stifled groan sounds out.

Lu Chen abruptly opens his eyes. Everything before is pitch black, yet a fearsome flame seems to be burning.New novel chapters are published on

Black flames!

The black-colored flames bursts forth from every single corner of his body and dances frenziedly as though a poisonous snake, burning all flesh and blood on his body. Yet, his clothes remain completely intact.

Everything is silent, yet in the next instant, the world seems to suddenly fall apart. No howl of agony in this world seems to be able to match the wretched screams at this very moment. A short moment later, the bed abruptly shakes slightly and Lu Chen disappears.

The next moment, Lu Chen lands onto a solid surface. Once again, he arrives in the mysterious space that resembles a tree hollow.

Under the shine of the gentle light, the black flames shrouds the entirety of Lu Chens body, turning him into a human torch. He screams from the excruciating pain. Staggering, he dives into the puddle in the center of the hollow.

Huala, water splashes about. Once again, he enters the pool of green water filled with vitality. Almost the same moment as when he entered the water, the frenziedly burning black flames seem to have been suppressed. The fire slowly dies down before retreating back into Lu Chens body.

Everything seems the same as before. The water gently ripples and the mysterious life force from the water seeps into Lu Chens body, healing the glaring wounds left behind by the burning blame flames until not a single scar could be seen.

After an unknown period of time, Lu Chen sits upright in the water and glances at his body. After which, he surveys this pool of emerald water.

The water is light green as it sways faintly about, an extremely beautiful sight.

However, when he found this location out of coincidence ten years ago, this pool of water had a shade of deep green. Back then, the life force in it is so rich that you could almost breath it in. Yet, it is gradually thinning down.

The silence continues and the two of them look slightly lost. After a short period of time, Lu Chen coughs slightly and asks, So, what is the reason behind your visit?

Ding Dang ponders for a moment before replying, There is something which I would like to tell you.

Lu Chen responds, Oh, go ahead.

Can you lend me 300 Spirit Stones? Ding Dang asks abruptly after another moment of silence.

Lu Chen also went silent. He stares into Ding Dangs eyes.

Ding Dang looks a little distress as fluster appears in her gaze. She subconsciously turns away. Yet, in the next instant, she seems to have thought of something and bucks up her courage before turning back to look at Lu Chen and asks softly, Is it possible?

Lu Chen didnt respond, neither did he reject her. After staring at her silently, he asks, What do you need it for?

Ding Dang is surprised by Lu Chens abnormal calmness. However, she didnt have the leisure to be pondering about this right now. Inhaling deeply, hesitation appears in her eyes. She opens her mouth just to close it. In the end, she sighs and says, I need it urgently. After which, she sneaks another peek at Lu Chen and hesitates for another moment before asking, If the sum is too great, can you lend me 200 first?

Lu Chen went silent for another moment before asking, Is it very urgent?

Ding Dang nods her head vigorously, Very urgent. Then, she continues with a soft tone, I cant think of anyone else who would help me in this village, so I could only come over to find you.

Lu Chen smiles. His eyes turns downwards and after a short moment, responds, I dont have much Spirit Stones in my possession right now. Give me a day, I will see if I can make out the sum for you.

(No.5)

Ding Dang is overjoyed. She cheers and nods her head continuously with an exhilarated expression.

The quiet and bland life continues. The villages of the Clear Stream Village welcomes he arrival of the warm and beautiful summer after the departure of spring. However, other than the weather heating up and the calls of the crickets on the trees of the village, there doesnt seem to be much change to the life in the village.

That is, until the 4th day of the 6th month, the sudden arrival of a news caused a commotion in this little mountainous village!
