C2637 Siren(1)
Yuan Yue followed closely behind him, and from time to time she would glance at the guest room on the side of the corridor. The room was also empty, and the wooden frame and window-paper on the door had disappeared, leaving only a dry, doorless room!
The room at the end of the third floor was different. That room... was actually intact! There was a door, and there was also a piece of paper on the window. This was simply a miracle that could not possibly exist in the deep sea area that was more than a hundred meters deep!
But it really did exist!
"Is there... anyone inside?"
Faang Cheng stood at the door and asked directly!
However, the room remained silent and no one answered him. Faang Cheng turned his head and glanced at Yuan Yue, who seemed to be slightly nervous. He then reached out his hand and gave Yuan Yue a firm handshake, indicating that she should not worry. Then, he turned his head back to the strange room.
"Is there anyone here? If you don't say anything, I'll go in!"
As Faang Cheng spoke, he reached out his hand and pushed open the door to the room.
*Swoosh!* Suddenly, something shot out from the room. Faang Cheng immediately pulled Yuan Yue backward and saw a short arrow that seemed to be stained with blood piercing straight into a wooden pillar in the corridor.
"There's indeed someone here!"
Faang Cheng shouted. After settling Yuan Yue down outside the room, he rushed into the room by himself! However, when he rushed into the room, he was surprised to find that... there was actually no one inside! The room was not big. He could see the furnishings and the situation of the room at a glance. It was empty, and there was indeed no one inside.
Faang Cheng stood in his original spot hesitantly and carefully felt out the spiritual power in the room. There was no spiritual power! He could not help but frown, but he immediately understood! If there was any Spirit Power in this room, then he should have been able to feel it when he was downstairs! Since he did not feel any Spirit Power in the room at that time, it was reasonable that he did not feel anything now!
However... Since there was no one in the room, where did the short arrow come from? Could someone have set up a trap at the bottom of the sea, and someone would be attacked by the short arrow the moment they opened the door?
Thinking of this, Faang Cheng turned around and glanced at the windows and the beams of the room. However, he did not find any signs of any traps set up. Everything was quiet, as if no one had broken the silence here for thousands of years.
"Faang Cheng, how is it? Did you find anything?"
Yuan Yue, who was standing outside the door, did not hear any sounds of fighting in the room, so she hurriedly asked in a soft voice.
"It's fine. Since there's no one here, it should be safe for the time being. Come in!"
Faang Cheng said to Yuan Yue.
When Yuan Yue heard his words, she rushed in from the door and saw Faang Cheng looking around the room strangely. She could not help but be confused.
"The person in the room ran away?"
She asked hesitantly.
"No one!"
Faang Cheng shook his head.
"No one? What do you mean?"
Yuan Yue repeated Faang Cheng's words in confusion.
"Exactly... When I came in, there was no one in the room and I didn't feel any spiritual power at all. This is a very strange phenomenon!"
Faang Cheng was also in a strange state!
"This... Could it be that the ghost was really crying just now?"
This was the only explanation Yuan Yue could think of!
"What the hell! Even if it was a ghost, I should still be able to sense its aura! But this place is really quiet, there's nothing here!"
Faang Cheng shook his head.2
"Unless... this thing really can move at a speed that even I can't see clearly, and... It must be something that can hide its own Spirit Power at will! "
Faang Cheng thought for a moment and felt that only by satisfying these two characteristics could he not see nor feel anything!
"Then this thing... Wouldn't it be very powerful?"
Yuan Yue could not help but feel slightly nervous. She had never heard of Faang Cheng encountering such a thing before!
"That... It's not that he's good at hiding, but it's very likely that he's better at it, just like Duan Yu from the Eight Divisions of Sky Dragon. His martial arts skills aren't that good, but his escape skills are really good!"
Seeing how Yuan Yue seemed to be a little nervous, Faang Cheng stepped forward and stroked her hair, even making a joke with her.
"Mm... That's true! Otherwise, that thing might have already gone against us just now!"
Yuan Yue nodded in agreement, thinking that Faang Cheng's words made a lot of sense!
"Yes, don't worry. With me here... What else is there to worry about?"
Faang Cheng held Yuan Yue in his arms. Perhaps it was due to the seawater, but Yuan Yue's body seemed to be cold to the extreme. Faang Cheng could not help but use his spirit power to warm up her body!
"I'm not cold, but I can't speak or breathe. It feels strange!"
At the bottom of the sea, they could only use spirit power to transmit their voices into their brains, as if it was a form of communication in the spiritual domain. This made her, who was used to talking, feel a little uncomfortable!
"Mm, if there are no clues here, we will go back! After all, we are not here to search for the history of Yang City. Our main task is to find the Yun Family!"
Faang Cheng said to Yuan Yue.
"Alright, let's see if Xiao Qi and the others have found anything in a while..."
And before Yuan Yue could finish her sentence, the strange and terrible crying began again. This time... it was not in the room on the third floor, but... it had been transferred downstairs, and it sounded... as if it was coming from the lobby on the first floor!
"It's here again..."
Faang Cheng felt helpless. He suddenly heard a hint of mockery in the cries. Since they were downstairs, this thing led them upstairs, and when they were upstairs, this thing ran downstairs again!
"Is it playing around with us?"
Yuan Yue also felt that something was amiss!
"It seems to be. Let's go down and take a look!"
Faang Cheng looked into Yuan Yue's eyes and said. Yuan Yue immediately understood what he meant and immediately grabbed his arm. Immediately after, she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her as the sea water brushed past her face. Then... they were already on the ground floor of the lobby on the first floor!
The moment she opened her eyes, Yuan Yue only saw a black shadow flash in front of her! Faang Cheng let go of her and enveloped her body with a barrier of Spirit Power at the fastest speed possible. Then, he turned around and chased after the black shadow!
"Moon, don't move. Stay inside the barrier and don't come out!"
Faang Cheng's voice sounded from afar. From the sound of his voice, he had already caught up to Chang Yuan in an instant!
"Alright!"
Yuan Yue shouted in the direction Faang Cheng had disappeared in as loud as she could, but she didn't know if Faang Cheng could hear her or not. He must have already disappeared by now.
After that, Yuan Yue looked at the decorations in the lobby of the inn in boredom. When she was bored to death, she sat down cross-legged on the ground!
