Chapter 304 Taking Care Of Shi Caihong’s Echo

Tao Guotin closed his eyes but even after closing his eyes he could hear the sound of soft splashes in the water, as the sound of the water splashing behind him became louder and louder as the being behind him came closer to him, his heart started thudding against his chest.

" Guotin ~, look at me ~" the sing-song voice was enough to scare Tao Guotin but when he felt something wet and muddy fall at the back of his neck, he almost jumped. If not for Mei Xing squeezing his hand and stopping him from looking behind him, he surely would have taken a look at what was going on behind him.

It wasn't as if he wanted to disregard what Song Yan said but something about the voice made it impossible for him to ignore it. It was just so sweet and sticky, it made his heart itch… even though he knew that the thing behind him was a ghost but he just couldn't ignore it!

The group continued to walk forward hoping that they would be able to walk out of the bathhouse faster before the thing behind them called Tao Guotin again. To others, that thing's voice was like a screeching banshee but of course, for Tao Guotin it was completely different… however, before they could reach the exit of the bathhouse and get out of this place, that horrible thing once again opened its mouth and called, " Tao Guotin ~"

This time Song Yan turned around as she threw her ring in the air and summoned her scythe, no one knew what was happening but it was only when they saw that Tao Guotin actually turned around and was looking at the ghost that looked half human with half of its body melting floating in the air, did they realise why Song Yan rushed back.

" What is that thing?" Kong Kun was so disgusted that even if he didn't eat anything since the morning he wanted to vomit it all out at once.  That thing flying in the air didn't resemble a human nor did it resemble a ghost, it … with its melting flesh and head that was twice the size of their entire group, it made him feel queasy.

" I don't know… and I don't want to know," Shao Li Jun covered his eyes and refused to take another look at the thing, it was simply horrible. It looked like a genie except instead of its tail flying in the air, the intestines of that thing were floating in the air with blood and melting flesh dripping down on the floor.

" I second that," said Fu Yu Shen in a croaky voice as he hid behind Shao Li Jun, seeing him acting like this Kong Kun was a bit disgruntled. Who said that adults were responsible?

Song Yan's face was cool and her pace was calm as she swung her scythe at the thing's hand that was reaching for Tao Guotin.  Her scythe swiped at the sticky fleshy hand of the thing, with one clean sweep the thing's hand dropped to the floor as the thing let out a horrible scream.

No longer sounding as sweet as it was earlier.

Tao Guotin's hazy eyes turned clear with its painful scream and as soon as his consciousness returned his gaze met with the genie-like ghost with trailing entrails and melting flesh. Horrified, he screamed together with the thing while allowing Mei Xing to drag him back.

" What's that…just what in the world is that?" He murmured but he didn't get a chance to say anything as Fu Yu Shen who was furious at his stupid cousin for setting that thing loose at them chased after him and smacked the back of his head. " Why did you turn around? Didn't second sister in law tell you to stay put?"

" I didn't want to! But before I knew what was happening I was already looking at that thing!" Did his cousin think that he was too eager to die? He too didn't want this to happen!

" All right don't fight or you will disturb second sister in law," though Mei Xing was a bit dissatisfied with Tao Guotin, it was only a little bit of disappointment. Most of her focus was on Song Yan, who was dealing with the thing that was trying to hurt them.

Song Yan stared at the thing that was wailing in front of her, she could sense that the thing was trying to escape so before it could run away from her, she swiftly twisted her scythe and summoned a glowing whip with flaming blue and golden flames as the scythe vanished. Though she could have used her scythe at the thing attacking this thing from close range could hurt her, so she immediately flicked the whip in her hand that twisted itself around Shi Caihong's echo.

She rolled her arm and with a heavy flick smashed the thing against the water of the bath, as soon as the flames of hell's fire touched the muddy water, it soon started to bubble and froth, the echo opened its horrible mouth and let out a miserable scream as it evaporated in thin air.

Once it was gone Song Yan threw her head back and cracked her neck, before turning to look at the group. " Let's go, it seems that thing is coming for us, we need to get to a safe zone before it corners us."

She spoke like she just finished drying some laundry.

On the other hand, the group was so stunned that they all looked at Song Yan with popping eyes. What the f*ck! Tonight their horizons were really going to get board! Mei Xing stared at Song Yan with admiration and excitement, she was the one!

Song Yan was the master she was looking for all along if only Song Yan accepts her as her disciple then all her dreams will come true!

She immediately turned to look at Fu Yu Shen and excitedly asked, " Brother Shen, is second sister in law looking for a disciple? My grandma says that I was born with a wonderful yin physique. If she takes me in then surely she will not regret it!"
