CHAPTER 55: CHAPTER 51: LEAVING THE CITY (PART 1)_3

It is said that it is a type of ghost generated under special circumstances from resentment and evil energy, carrying some memories from its previous life, but mostly dull and foolish.

Since it is composed of resentment and evil energy, the ghost appears somewhat terrifying, with a ferocious and ghastly appearance.

This sinister spirit body isn’t very harmful. When it encounters ordinary people, the evil energy, resentment, and yin energy on it enter the ordinary person’s body, eroding their vitality.

One careless moment can lead to a person’s death.

But for martial artists, with strong Qi Blood and ample yang energy, at most it would just cause a serious illness.

If it’s a martial artist in the Qi Blood Realm, they don’t even need explosives; just a single punch, shaking the Qi Blood, and their immense life force can make the ghost vanish into thin air.

"Not afraid of encountering ghosts, just as long as you don’t dig up a coffin and encounter a living corpse." Jia Yanrong said indifferently.

If you encounter a living corpse, you can only run for your life.

These things are far more terrifying than bandits, with copper skin and iron bones, impervious to swords and spears.

If it bites you or scratches you, the wound will be inflicted with yin poison, making it extremely difficult to cure.

"By the way, I plan to go out of the city for a few days. If you encounter trouble from other gangs or outsiders, don’t force it. If you really can’t win, ask Lord Qiu to step in." Lin Zheyu said.

"You want to go out of the city? It’s so chaotic outside, bandits are everywhere. Why go out?" Jia Yanrong asked perplexedly.

"Yeah, it’s really chaotic outside now. Even martial artists in the Bone Forging Realm aren’t safe." Ning Hui also said.

"Going out to see what the situation is like outside, to get familiar with the outside terrain in case of emergency." Lin Zheyu said with a smile.

Songyi City’s economy is very poor, affected by the war, and the plan for storytelling rights cannot be implemented. If he can’t find a good way to make money, he’ll have to consider escape plans.

"Then you should be careful. Bandits are rampant in the mountains and forests." Xie Jiang reminded him, "It’s best to go with experienced hunters. They know where there are fewer bandits and which paths are more hidden."

"Yes, I’ve considered all of that."

"Come, let’s drink, let’s drink. I’ll have to rely on you for the next few days." Lin Zheyu raised his glass to toast them.

...

Early the next morning.

The Xing Family.

Knock knock

Knock knock knock

Early in the morning, Xing Jinglong’s door was knocked on.

"Calling so early in the morning for what?"

Xing Jinglong opened his eyes, showing a look of displeasure.

Being woken up early in the morning, he was in a strong morning grumpiness.

If a good reason wasn’t given, this servant would hardly escape punishment.

"Young master, someone from the Wuding Gang is here to see you. They say they have important news to tell you." The servant said tremblingly.

It’s not good to wake the young master, but he had no choice.

Because the person from the Wuding Gang said that if the young master wasn’t woken up and something went wrong, his life would be at risk.

Xing Jinglong was born in a side branch of the Xing Family, but he seldom mixed with the rich young men of the Xing Family.

He enjoyed practicing martial arts and fighting, which is why he mixed with the Wuding Gang.

After mixing for a while, when he felt bored, he would, like his brother Xing Penghai, join the City Guard Army.

"Let him come over."

Xing Jinglong exhaled, still not fully awake from his sleep.

He hadn’t gotten up this early in a long time.

"Young master, a brother came to report that they saw Lin Zheyu heading towards the west gate, seemingly intending to go out of the city."

The man said.

Upon hearing this, Xing Jinglong instantly became fully awake.

A hint of delight appeared on his face: "You say that brat has gone out of the city?"

The man nodded affirmatively: "He went towards the west gate. There’s nothing there at the west gate. Other than people leaving the city, very few people go there."

"Haha, that brat is finally willing to leave the city!"

"Go notify Mr. Zhao and Qiao Spring to meet up at the west gate. This time, I want him to have no escape!" Xing Jinglong laughed heartily.

"By the way, how many of them are there?"

Xing Jinglong asked.

Having suffered at Lin Zheyu’s hands several times, he wised up and wanted to be fully prepared this time.

"Just him alone." The man said.

"Just him?"

"Really a brat who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, thinking that with his lightweight skill, he can roam freely outside the city?"

"Heh heh, this time you won’t escape from the palm of my hand!"

Xing Jinglong smirked with a sinister smile, quickly changed into another outfit, mounted his horse, and rushed towards the west gate.
