Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 358: Blinding Technique

Jiangli was already standing at the door waiting, and Yao Mingxuan was also at the doorway.

Seeing them come out, Yao Mingxuan instructed, "Xuanhang, you guys should be careful."

Yao Xuanhang nodded absentmindedly, "Sis, don’t worry, I know, and besides, the Abbot is here."

Jiangli just smiled without saying anything.

Yao Mingxuan was still somewhat worried, but she couldn’t follow them, so she watched anxiously as they all got into the car.

The car belonging to Yao Xuanhang quickly left the front of their home.

Jiangli sat in the passenger seat, holding a plate of small tomatoes that Yao Mingxuan had just given her.

She had never seen such small tomatoes before, and found them quite delicious.

Jiangli ate them one after another, enjoying herself immensely.

Out of the corner of his eye, Yao Xuanhang saw her eating with pleasure, which made him feel even more uneasy.

It seemed like the traffic lights were against him today.

They hit red lights all along the way, always having to stop and wait for ages. freewebnσvel.cѳm

Yao Xuanhang grew increasingly impatient, casting an annoyed glance at the time—it was already past four in the afternoon.

Looking up at the red light ahead, Yao Xuanhang cursed under his breath.

Jiangli glanced at him, saying nothing.

After a few seconds, the light turned green. Yao Xuanhang restarted the car, and they had only gone a short distance when Jiangli, observing the surroundings, hesitated briefly then slapped him on the back of his hand.

Yao Xuanhang immediately looked over, "What’s wrong, Abbot?"

"Don’t you feel like you might have taken the wrong route?" Jiangli looked out the car window and asked.

Yao Xuanhang checked left and right, "It’s correct, this is the road. The bar we’re going to is on this road, we’re almost there."

Jiangli narrowed her eyes, her index and middle fingers together like a knife, and suddenly struck him right in the middle of his forehead.

Yao Xuanhang felt a dull pain and was just about to ask Jiangli what she was doing when he saw the window behind her filling with black smoke.

It was nothing like the scene from just moments before.

Yao Xuanhang’s eyes widened, "Where, where is this black smoke coming from...?"

"Is it really smoke?" Xia Xin, who was seated in the back, noticed the changes nearby and said uneasily, "It feels like there’s a chilling wind. And there seem to be people inside the smoke..."

Upon hearing this, Yao Xuanhang took a closer look, and indeed, within the black mist, there were silhouettes slowly approaching.

As they drew nearer, Yao Xuanhang saw a group of distorted figures dragging themselves across the ground, inching closer to their car.

The figures had ferocious faces, blood on their faces and bodies, and some had missing hands and feet, with severed limbs wriggling on the ground...

Furthermore, there were those with half of their brains gone, dragging their severed legs as they crawled forward...

"Damn it, damn it! What are these things! Why would such things appear on a main road!?" Yao Xuanhang was startled, cold sweat broke out on his back as he pressed tightly against his seat.

Xia Xin’s face had also turned pale.

He realized that these were not humans, but... ghosts.

Although Xia Xin was from Xuanmen, he had never really seen any ghosts before.

Let alone seeing so many ghosts all at once...

"Ancestor, what’s going on, is it a ghost parade?!"

"No, it’s an illusion." Jiangli said emotionlessly, and as soon as her words ended, she pushed open the car door and prepared to step out.

Yao Xuanhang was so scared he almost lost his soul, "Ab, Abbot, what are you doing going out there, we should be driving away now!"

"This is a Blinding Technique. If the spell isn’t broken, we’ll be trapped here forever, and then these things will devour us," Jiangli explained as she walked out without looking back.

Yao Xuanhang was stunned, "Isn’t it just a Blinding Technique, why would we still be devoured?"

"Blinding Technique... I, I don’t know, but I feel like those things seem very wrong..."
