The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 715 - 712: The Ferocious "Cabbage

Xin Lin took a step back and heard something behind her.

When she turned around, she saw two Spirit Masters near the Stone Gate.

One Spirit Master had a severed arm, and that very limb was beside the mouth of the other Spirit Master, who was holding a large chunk of blood-drenched flesh in his mouth, clearly human flesh.

Then there were several Martial Artists who had their legs chopped off, with the remnants of their legs nowhere to be found.

Only broken fingers and shattered muscles were left scattered on the ground.

The thing Xin Lin stepped on was actually a severed hand.

"Damn, what is this? They’re all dead, could there be some other traps in this place?"

Wu Yuan’s face turned unsightly as he leapt a few steps back.

He was somewhat squeamish; killing was one thing, but such ghastly deaths turned his stomach.

Luckily he hadn’t eaten much these past few days, or he might have thrown up the strange-taste snake he had for dinner last night.

"Which eye of yours sees them as having been killed by traps or hidden weapons? They’ve been dead for several days already."

Based on the bloodstains on the ground and the condition of the bodies, Wu Xuan roughly estimated the time of their death.

Meaning, they must have died not long after they entered through the Stone Gate.

Several groups had entered at different times, but without exception, none had continued the journey onward.

This place wasn’t even the Dragon Ancient Tomb yet, but merely its periphery.

Among these people were great hands at the Great Spirit Master Level, but all were dead.

"I recognize this guy; he is a General of An Country, his cultivation no lesser than yours or mine. A stab to the throat... But these wounds, how do they look self-inflicted?"

Wu Xuan felt a sudden chill at the nape of his neck.

Would a normal person slit their own throat?

The Gray Wolf King growled softly at the side.

Wu Xuan patted the Gray Wolf King’s head.

"The Wolf King is warning us not to go any deeper, saying it’s much more dangerous inside."

Xin Lin was also observing the corpses around.

After entering the Stone Gate, although the lighting had grown much brighter.

Yet she felt an ominous chill, similar to that of the Luoyin Ghost Cave from before.

"We can’t back out now, having come this far; to give up would be to abandon all our efforts."

Wu Yuan was the first to disagree.

"What a pity, not a single living person, or else we might have discovered some clues."

Wu Xuan frowned.

"Not necessarily, sometimes corpses do speak, and what they say is often more real than that of the living."

Xin Lin whispered softly.

"Don’t scare me, I don’t believe in the talk of ghosts and gods."

Wu Yuan’s face turned pale, but he stiffly maintained a look of disbelief, yet he still couldn’t help glancing nervously at the corpses.

Xin Lin smiled and walked over to one of the corpses.

It was the corpse of the General of An Country that Wu Yuan had mentioned earlier.

Moving forward rashly was dangerous, so she could only ask for direction first.

She spread out her hand, and in her palm appeared a white, chubby wriggling little worm.

"What’s that? Cabbage? Why does the Spiritual Beast you’re raising look so dumb?"

Wu Yuan moved closer, intending to touch the plump worm.

But the next moment, the "Cabbage" he’d called dumb clambered onto the corpse and opened its mouth.

With a few crisps crunching sounds, several of the thick-fingered General of An Country were gnawed off by the "Cabbage."

Wu Yuan’s face turned pale, barely suppressing the screams that reached his lips.

That "Cabbage" was so vicious!

The Corpse Leech took no more than half a moment to strip the body clean, not even leaving a single hair behind.
