The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 717 - 714: Possession

With their level of cultivation, observing in such fine detail, ordinary movements stand no chance of escaping their eyes.

"Xin Lin, stop pretending to be mystical, there’s nothing here."

Although he said this, Wu Yuan felt a chill running down his spine.

"None of you can see it?"

Xin Lin stared straight ahead.

On the corpse not far in front, something was slowly emerging from inside the body.

A hazy glow of will-o’-the-wisp white light, not just from that corpse, but from a few other bodies, similar white lights also appeared simultaneously.

The white lights converged, forming several figures.

The features were indistinct, blurry; they were clearly Ah Piao!

Seeing the familiar Ah Piao, Xin Lin finally remembered.

Ordinary people cannot see Ah Piao.

She didn’t know if it was due to the Hundred Life Evil Ghost, but she could see Ah Piao when she was in Luoyin Ghost Cave. It was also there she got to know Little Xinzhuo.

"Xin Lin, I’m warning you, stop spouting nonsense, there are only the three of us here."

The more Wu Yuan spoke, the eerier he felt.

"Behind you, just one step away, there’s an Ah Piao. His height is roughly the same as yours, wearing a ginger yellow robe, and he blew a breath on your neck."

Xin Lin coughed lightly a few times.

Being able to see Ah Piao was not exactly her wish.

"Could you spout anymore nonsense..."

Suddenly, Wu Yuan felt a chill on his neck, a patch of goose bumps quickly formed.

"Holy moly!"

Wu Yuan jumped up high, looking around, other than the scattered corpses and the rock walls, there was nothing else, but the cold breath on his back was definitely real.

"He has floated away to the side again. I think I know what’s up with these corpses. They must be because of these Ah Piao. Inside this cave, it’s so gloomy; a lot of people must have died here."

Xin Lin turned her head to look at that Stone Gate.

She had always wondered, who built this Dragon Ancient Tomb.

Looking at the structure here, it clearly couldn’t have been made by the Ice Horned Dragon itself; it’s very likely that it was built by the Imperial Family of Longteng.

Dragon Vein can bestow blessings and protect a nation’s fortune.

If she were the ruler, she too would want to secure the Dragon Vein and build such an enshrouded tomb under Black Water Lake, surely it must have consumed a considerable amount of manpower and resources.

The Dragon Vein is so important, once its whereabouts are leaked, not to mention cultivators, even other nations would come in throngs.

The builders of the tomb, wanting to keep this secret, must have taken actions.

Xin Lin speculated, these Ah Piao in front of her eyes were very likely the original builders of the tomb, they constructed the tomb, but couldn’t open that Stone Gate with the Five Elements Pattern, they were probably trapped alive and died here, right?

"Wronged... we are so wronged..."

Those few Ah Piao, drifting and floating inside the cave, kept shouting "unjust."

"Xin Lin, at least say something. Is there really something behind me?"

Seeing Xin Lin silent, Wu Yuan was covered in goosebumps.

"Those are victims; they’ve been imprisoned here for a long time, over time, they have turned into Grave Guardian Ghosts. Once someone tries to enter the tomb, they will launch an attack. Aside from those with exceptionally strong life forces, others are easily ensnared."

The timely reminder from Gui Hu added more credence to Xin Lin’s previous guess.

"You two, don’t act recklessly, these victims are looking for targets. Those corpses, they all went mad and died after being possessed by them."

No sooner had Xin Lin finished speaking, the Ah Piao that was closer to Wu Yuan darted toward him with a swoosh and lunged at Wu Yuan.
