Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 440: Truth and Falsehood

And now, those living in Shangfeng’s house are probably a bunch of demons and spirits!

"What are you going to do?" Sister-in-law Zhang screamed sharply, "Xie Huang, who are these people you’ve brought? Are they monsters?"

Fear was deeply etched in Sister-in-law Zhang’s eyes, and she acted like the most timid woman imaginable.

However, once people have preconceived notions, it’s hard to shift them.

Xie Huang felt that something was off with the Sister-in-law Zhang in front of him, so he paid more attention to her expressions, gaze, and actions.

This observation was crucial, for he found that Sister-in-law Zhang’s movements couldn’t keep up with her expressions!

This indicated that the entity occupying her body was not yet fully familiar with it!

Xie Huang glanced at Sister-in-law Zhang and then looked up at Lu Zechuan, "Mr. Lu, I’ll leave things here to you, and we’ll go check out the bedroom!"

Since these two oddballs said Wang Cheng was in Elder Zhang’s bedroom, even if there were traps in the bedroom, they had to take a look for Wang Cheng’s sake.

After all, Wang Cheng hadn’t been in there long, and if they rescued him in time, he should still have a chance to live!

Lu Zechuan nodded slightly.

The distance between the bedroom and the living room wasn’t far. If anything happened on that side, he could still lend a hand promptly.

Xie Huang, along with Song Ci, headed toward the bedroom.

Lu Zechuan lowered his head to look at Sister-in-law Zhang and her children huddled in the corner, catching a fleeting gleam in their eyes.

Lu Zechuan was convinced that there was definitely something wrong in that bedroom!

With a flick of his fingers, a potted green plant on the coffee table in the living room instantly grew, its branches and leaves becoming sturdy chains that tightly bound Sister-in-law Zhang and her children.

Seeing Lu Zechuan display his skills, Sister-in-law Zhang and her children showed immediate shock and horror.

Initially, they only feared Lu Zechuan a little, but now they’re absolutely terrified of him!

The Magic of the Wood Clan!

This person before them was a member of the Wood Clan!

Before the rise of the Divine Clan, the Wood Clan was the largest clan in the Mystical World!

The Magic of the Wood Clan is comparable to that of the Divine Clan.

Wasn’t it said that these two adults have already left the present world for the Mystical World?

Why was this adult now appearing in front of them?

It’s no wonder these soul eaters made assumptions, for in the past, wherever Xia Mian was, Lu Zechuan would be there too. Who would have thought that this time, when Xia Mian went to the Mystical World, Lu Zechuan didn’t accompany her?!

Securing these two for the moment, Lu Zechuan turned and reached the bedroom door.

Before Xie Huang could speak, he said in a deep voice, "I’ll do it!"

"Step back!" To be cautious, Lu Zechuan instructed Xie Huang and Song Ci.

Xie Huang and Song Ci obediently moved two steps back.

Without hesitation, Lu Zechuan moved his fingers slightly, casting a green glow onto the lock of the room door.

The lock shattered under the green glow, and with a kick, Lu Zechuan knocked the door down, retreating several steps as it fell.

Just as he retreated, black mist surged out of the room!

Prepared for this, Lu Zechuan waved his hand, forming a green net with the glow that ensnared all the black mist within it!

Lu Zechuan gave the net a shake, a cold smile creeping onto his lips, "Trying to ambush me?"

If it had been ordinary people, they would have succeeded in their ambush.

After all, soul eaters pounce onto people, occupying their bodies and controlling their souls.

Yet, it was unlucky for them that Lu Zechuan was here. Having dealt with soul eaters before, he was well-versed in their tactics and wouldn’t fall for them.

The soul eaters trapped in the net struggled tirelessly, but against just a single layer of the green net, they couldn’t break free.

Without bantering with his opponents, Lu Zechuan shifted his gaze to the interior of the bedroom.

Inside the bedroom, were two people: an elderly man and a young man in his early twenties.

The young man clutched a peach wood sword in front of him, eyes filled with vigilance as he stared at the elderly man.

Even with the commotion at the doorway, he didn’t turn his head to look.

As for the elderly man being stared at, his expression was one of panic and terror.

"Xie Huang! Has your brat gone mad?" The elderly man barked, full of energy.

This tone and attitude were like the Elder Zhang Xie Huang knew well.

Squinting his eyes, Xie Huang was a bit confused.

Had Elder Zhang been possessed by the so-called Soul-devouring Clan?

While Xie Huang wavered, Lu Zechuan sneered, "Keep pretending!"

The Soul-devouring Clan had a heaven-defying ability: once they occupied a body, they inherited all of the host’s memories.

So, when they wanted to impersonate someone, they could do so flawlessly!

With Lu Zechuan’s scolding, the previously tense Wang Cheng finally seemed to notice Xie Huang and the others’ arrival, turning his stiff neck to look at Xie Huang, his expression more pained than crying, "Director Xie! You’re finally here!"

Wang Cheng’s voice quivered, trembling with sobs. Facing these oddities again, if it hadn’t been for Miss Xia previously casting out the evil spirit, leaving her aura on him, he’d have long been a goner by these bizarre entities!

Looking at Wang Cheng, Xie Huang hesitated to determine if he was human or a malicious entity.

Momentarily, Xie Huang said nothing.

Lu Zechuan, on the other hand, gestured at Wang Cheng, "Come over!"

Wang Cheng tried to lift his legs, but they wouldn’t move.

"Numb..." Wang Cheng mourned bitterly.

Earlier, surrounded by strange entities, Wang Cheng dared not move, standing so long that his legs had gone numb.

He felt grateful that, due to his previous possession incident, Director Xie sought out Xia Mian, whose aura kept those beings at bay without daring to invade him. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Otherwise, he’d have been just like Sister-in-law Zhang and her children.

Zhao Liu promptly approached to assist Wang Cheng, but as he moved toward him, he slyly monitored Elder Zhang from the corner of his eye.

Mr. Lu’s behavior indicated that Elder Zhang was a fake and that Wang Cheng hadn’t been possessed; he was still his colleague.

Escorting Wang Cheng out of the bedroom, Lu Zechuan turned his gaze toward Elder Zhang.

From his perspective, Elder Zhang had been possessed by the soul eater for quite some time. Even if they expelled the soul eater now, the chances of Elder Zhang surviving were slim to none.

Lu Zechuan frowned, asking Xie Huang, "The likelihood of the body’s owner surviving is extremely low. How do you propose we handle this?"
