Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 374 - 357: Endless Little Ghosts

As the words fell, Mu Yunchu’s expression changed.

Wen Xu thought she was about to say something, but suddenly felt the force that held his hand increase exponentially. He instinctively loosened his grip, allowing Mu Yunchu’s hand to escape.

Though he said so, he wouldn’t actually harm Mu Yunchu, or do anything against her will.

Unexpectedly, after breaking free, Mu Yunchu did not intend to leave. Instead, she pressed down on his shoulders, turned over, and straddled his waist.

Wen Xu: !

"You...!"

Before he could finish his sentence, something warm was placed on his lips.

Wen Xu widened his eyes, looking at Mu Yunchu’s finger on his lips, and with her current actions, he even suspected if his heart had stopped working.

"Don’t make a sound just yet."

Just now, Wen Xu’s behavior was only to make Mu Yunchu understand that he was also a man.

Though happy that she trusted him, he feared she didn’t see him as the opposite sex.

But now, Mu Yunchu’s actions almost stopped his breathing!

Especially in the next second, Mu Yunchu waved her hand, and the lights in the hotel turned off.

In the darkness, with vision gone, other senses would become particularly amplified.

Wen Xu could only stand still, not daring to move.

For a moment, he even suspected if Mu Yunchu was deliberately retaliating against him.

But that moment passed quickly.

Because he knew very well Mu Yunchu wasn’t that kind of person.

So there was only one possibility left—danger was approaching.

Upon thinking of this, Wen Xu’s eyes became sharp, focusing all his attention on the surroundings, without a trace of distraction.

Just then, a damp moldy smell, mixed with air conditioning chill, invaded his nostrils.

Having a cleanliness obsession, Wen Xu usually paid extra attention to hygiene issues as soon as he entered a hotel.

So he could definitely confirm that previously, the room did not have this smell.

Thinking something strange might emerge, Wen Xu’s palms unknowingly began to seep fine cold sweat.

Outside the door, the corridor was also in darkness.

Suddenly, the safety exit sign at the end of the corridor made a sizzling sound, the green "EXIT" sign flickering on and off in the dark, the eerie green light seemingly taking this floor to another world, as if representing some omen of doom.

And Wen Xu seemed to sense something, too.

At that moment, Mu Yunchu suddenly grabbed his hand, placing something into his palm.

"Try to hold your breath."

"Be careful later."

She quickly instructed in a low voice.

Without seeing Wen Xu’s barely perceptible nod in response, she swiftly sketched a Demon Suppression Talisman in the void with her fingernails.

But before the words were fully spoken, the sprinkler head above them busted open, and foul-smelling black water poured down.

Before Wen Xu could react, Mu Yunchu had already switched positions with him, rolling him to evade, falling into the gap between the wall and the bed.

Fortunately, Mu Yunchu’s reaction was quick, preventing either from getting a drop of that black water on them.

Not to mention possible physical harm, even just the ’disgust’ factor would be enough to make them uncomfortable.

The burst of water grew wider, gradually forming a curtain of water.

Soon, three grayish-green figures emerged without warning from the water curtain, their hollow eye sockets burning with ghostly green flames.

Moreover, something seemed to be following them.

Mu Yunchu brandished the Peach Wood Sword, the frontmost ghost was hit on the shoulder by Sword Qi, shrieking sharply, turning into a puddle of black smoke before disappearing.

Vanquishing a ghost so quickly didn’t instill any fear in the remaining ghosts.

In the blink of an eye, two of them had already entangled Wen Xu, the cold ghost claws skimming his neck as he caught a whiff of rotting flesh mixed with rusty scent.

To him, this scent wasn’t unfamiliar.

He quickly rolled towards the room entrance, grabbed a fire extinguisher from the ground, and smashed it hard, the metal shell colliding with the ghost claw sparking out, successfully repelling one ghost.

But it was only repelling after all.

This kind of attack wouldn’t cause any harm to the opponent.

Yet Wen Xu quietly exhaled a sigh of relief seeing this.

As long as he could fight back, it was good.

His greatest fear was being able to do nothing, only dragging Mu Yunchu down.

After struggling with several ghosts for a while, Mu Yunchu’s voice suddenly rang beside him.

"Use this!"

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw her fling three talisman papers, the vermillion strokes glimmering in the dark.

Wen Xu quickly reacted, raised his hand to catch the talisman papers, then swiftly turned to slap them onto the wall, the papers bursting into golden light, forming a Light Shield that repelled all incoming ghosts.

However, more dark shadows poured out from the end of the corridor, ghost claws squirmed through the Light Shield, clawing at the wall, making dust fall incessantly.

Seeing the would-be endless emerging ghostly beings, Wen Xu couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"Hold on a little longer!"

Mu Yunchu shouted while distracted.

The Peach Wood Sword danced in her hand, talismans transforming into golden chains binding several ghosts.

But Mu Yunchu’s forehead was also beaded with cold sweat.

These ghosts seemed endless, every one vanquished was quickly replaced by another.

The ghosts entering first passed by Wen Xu’s spot, and he suddenly noticed something odd.

A few of the ghosts entering later bore charred burn marks, as if having survived a battle.

"Something seems off." Wen Xu eagerly relayed this information to Mu Yunchu, "They’re not on the same side."

Dodging an oncoming ghost claw, he shouted, "Some ghosts are attacking each other!"

Before the words were finished, two ghosts suddenly tussled together, one being torn in half. Green ghost blood splashed onto the walls, corroding into holes.

Mu Yunchu’s eyes narrowed, the sword edge shifted direction, and the Peach Wood Sword suddenly burst with strong light. She bit her fingertip, drawing a blood talisman on the blade, and shouted: "Three Purities above, judge Yin and Yang!" As the light sweeps through, the ghosts were divided clearly into two groups. One group was shrouded in black mist, the other exuded an eerie red glow, they no longer trying to enter the room, but begin fighting each other.

"So strange."

Mu Yunchu only expected someone to harm Wen Xu.

But now it seemed rather more complicated.

Could it be that there were two factions behind this?

She threw a large pile of talisman papers at Wen Xu as if they cost nothing.

"Light them up one by one."

"Chase them out now."

Wen Xu cooperated by lighting all the talisman papers, while Mu Yunchu swung the Peach Wood Sword at the remaining ones.

Flames formed a firewall, driving the fighting ghosts towards the end of the corridor.

Amidst a chorus of piercing screams, all ghosts turned to ashes and dispersed into the air.

With the crisis officially lifted, even Mu Yunchu took a deep breath.

She praised Wen Xu beside her, "You are the first mortal to cooperate with me."
