C65

I held this portrait in both hands and looked at the goddess-like woman in it. Only then did I recall the unforgettable scene in my dream. I was shocked but at the same time, I couldn't help but lament the fickleness of the world. The Old Ancestor they speak of has actually become my guardian spirit? In that case, wouldn't I be even more imposing than their ancestor?

When I heard Qiyou talking about the back mountain of the school, I remembered that the oval faced girl had said that Lanlan and the others had found Qiyou's Spirit Urn at the back mountain of the school.

However, it's already so late. Speaking of letting me go to the back of the mountain alone, I feel a bit scared.

"Oh right, Soul Painter, what's your name?" I slowly walked out of the hotel room. Just as I was hesitating, Qiyou's voice sounded again.

"Ma Que, Ma Yun's horse, lacks money," I suddenly replied.

"So it's a descendant of the Ma Family, no wonder …" Qiyou replied weirdly, immediately making me suspicious of him. When did our Ma Family become so famous that even Qiyou, the strongest of our ancestors, knew about us?

So I asked Qiyou: "You recognize Ma Family?"

But, after I said those words, Qiyou did not make a sound, and I don't know if I heard or not, but I was too lazy to care about it, so I rolled up the drawing and headed towards the mountain behind Lanlan's school.

As Lanlan and the others were only a dozen or so minutes away from the school, it wasn't realistic to walk over. Thus, as soon as I went downstairs, I stopped two taxis and said that they were going to the mountain behind XX Academy, but what I didn't expect was that when the taxi driver heard me, his expression changed and he asked me in shock, "What are you doing there in the middle of the night?"

I was in a hurry to go and come back earlier, but who would have thought that this teacher was such a scumbag? Thus, I snappily replied, "Can't I just go to sleep there?"

The taxi driver laughed when he heard this. He sneered and said, "Young man, your temper is quite impetuous. If you really dare to sleep there for the night, I'll give you the car."

"What's wrong?" When I heard this, I was quite surprised. Thus, I didn't bother about the teacher's attitude and instead asked him about it.

Five years ago, it was still a cemetery. When we were building the school, we wanted to enclose this land as well, but as soon as we arrived, we dug out a lot of human bones, so we decided to just give up on it and let it be empty instead of a foot more." At this point, the teacher turned off the car and looked at me with a smile that wasn't a smile.

When I heard this, I felt a chill run down my spine. The words "unmarked cemetery" really stung my nerves. Although I didn't believe that there was a ghost here, I knew that it was the home of a weasel.

In the eyes of the world, weasels are a very special kind of group. The places where they are present are bound to be full of evil things.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, the taxi driver said, "How is it, young man? Have you made up your mind?"

"Quickly go, I'm here, it's fine," Qiyou's voice resounded in my ears. Although I knew that it shouldn't be a problem for her to deal with a mere ghost, it wasn't fake, and since I was feeling weak in my heart, I started to stutter a little. However, the moment I raised my head, I saw the taxi driver's slightly mocking gaze, and immediately became angry.

"Brat, you're being stubborn, but I don't believe you today. If you really dare to go, I won't take your money." I didn't expect this taxi driver to actually say this. I was stunned for a moment before coldly laughing, "Then thank you very much."

With that, the taxi driver's face turned green and white. In the end, he took a taxi and headed towards the mountain behind Lanlan's school.

After a while, I could already see the entrance of Lanlan's school. Although I did not say anything, my heart was becoming more and more nervous, and did not know whether Qiyou, this great god, could be relied on or not, as I sat in the car uneasily and looked around from time to time.

"Young man, have you decided yet? There's still time to go back. I'll give you a discount and drag you back, okay?" The taxi driver's mouth still didn't stop, continuously fanning and igniting, causing my wavering heart to surge again.

However, a small matter like money or face was a big matter. There was no reason to swallow such sh * t back. Thus, I coldly looked at the taxi driver and said, "Not going back."

The taxi driver brought embarrassment to himself and didn't say anything else. However, I didn't know what he was thinking. From time to time, he would let out a cold snort, making me want to slap him twice.

"There's no more road ahead. Young man, you better take care of yourself." It seemed that the taxi driver had really done what he said and didn't charge me money. After I got off the taxi, he chuckled and said something sinisterly before turning the car around and pushing the throttle away, leaving me in the dark and desolate wilderness.

Suddenly, I feel a little regretful. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have done such a thing. But now, it's impossible to back down now.

"What are you waiting for?" Qiyou's voice once again sounded, causing me to feel a bit depressed in my heart. I thought to myself, why is there so many things going on with this mother's skin?

But then he thought, didn't I have her? She's my guardian now, so it's impossible to just sit there and do nothing.

Although this idea was not very accurate, it was still effective. Thus, I called out softly, "Immortal Master Qiyou?"

"Ma Que, you can just call me Qiyou." Qiyou's cold voice rang out, calming me down a little, and thinking that she was still here, I gritted my teeth and directly walked into the depths of the rear mountain. Unexpectedly, before I could even take a few steps forward, Qiyou's voice rang out once again, "Ma Que, you walked the wrong path, so it should be to the left."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but blush, thinking that since you didn't say anything, how would I know which side it was?

Thinking about this, I said, "Qiyou, can you show yourself? I feel strange walking alone. "

"Hehe", Qiyou's laughter sounded out once again, causing my heart to tremble. I thought that this woman's laughter was indeed nice to listen to, but when I thought about her face, I felt that it was scary.

"Ma Que, are you afraid?" Qiyou laughed for a long time before speaking again. I seemed to see her unable to straighten his back, and immediately felt humiliated, thinking that they had just started working together, otherwise, his prestige would be raised and he would have to endure for a long time.

Thinking of this, I immediately clenched my teeth and straightened my waist. "Who's afraid? I'm just not used to walking at night."

My shameless words seemed to have been seen through by Qiyou, but she didn't make a sound, and similarly, she didn't show herself. I was the only one walking around in the pitch black night.

I didn't say anything more and kept on walking. However, I started to curse in my heart. I said that I would protect her, so why was it that I couldn't make such a small request? Why was there no trust between people?

Even though the night wind made me shiver and the odd insect cries that came from time to time made me a little shocked, I thought that since I had to establish my might, this man would have to do it, even if he couldn't.

I didn't know where this road ended. After walking for a while, I became a bit numb. I thought that besides the wind that was a bit scary, it wasn't as scary as the taxi driver said. Thus, my mood improved.

However, it did not last long.

I hadn't gone very far when I heard a long howl that sounded like the howl of a wolf. My whole body suddenly quivered as I thought to myself, 'How can there be a wolf in this crowded city's suburbs? Could it be that I misheard something? Or should I say whose dog is barking?'

Thus, I pretended to be calm and continued walking forward at a leisurely pace. However, at this moment, I was much more careful. I kept looking around and my heart was in my throat.

"Ga Ga!"

Here it comes again! I couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. The sound was like the cry of a crow.

As the saying goes: The old crow cries, bad things have happened, this is really f * cking bad luck.

I stopped in my tracks and looked around again.

The dim lights of the city came over, making me feel very tranquil. However, I couldn't calm down because when I looked from afar, I saw a blue dot of light flashing faintly not far away.

Although this point of light isn't very bright, it stands out in the pitch-black night sky. At first, I thought it was a weasel, but upon closer inspection, I realized that it's impossible.

Because even if the weasel's eyes could give off this kind of light, it wouldn't only have one?

In the instant that I was puzzled, the blue dot of light grew bigger and bigger, brighter and brighter. It wasn't until I could see it clearly that I suddenly realized that this thing was actually a floating flame!

The icy-cold blue color immediately numbed my scalp. My entire body shuddered and I nearly cried out in alarm.

This was actually Ghost Flame!

I stared blankly at the Ghostly Fire. Although I didn't move, that didn't mean that I wasn't afraid. It was that I couldn't move my feet.

"What should we do? Run? Or do you want to stay? " Countless thoughts instantly emerged in my mind. I thought for a long time before finally clenching my teeth and standing still. I coldly stared at the ghost flame and angrily shouted, "Isn't it just a ghost flame? What's there to be afraid of?"

But unfortunately, even without me moving, the ghost flame moved once again.

It slowly floated up, just like a kite held by a string. After flying above my head, it didn't rise up, but slowly circled around me. It was like a falcon flying in the sky, staring at my prey.

"Scram!" I couldn't hold back the fear in my heart any longer and shouted loudly. Even though it looked like I was expelling them, it was actually to strengthen my courage.

"Ga Ga", a weird sound rang out. I turned my head to listen and discovered that this strange sound came from within the ghostfire.
