Chapter 511: Chapter 539: Female Ghost??? (3rd Update)
"Master, follow that car in front!"
Lin Xi found a black taxi nearby and pointed at Master Liās car.
"Got it!" The driver of the black taxi was a bit puzzled but was happy as long as there was money to be made.
He didnāt care what would happen next and couldnāt even if he wanted to.
In the car in front, Master Li, and the young man inside, hadnāt noticed a vehicle was following them.
"Young man, why does your face look so pale?" Master Li asked out of curiosity, glancing at the passenger in the backseat through the rearview mirror, "Did you stay up all night or something?"
The young man was Yan Yichen, a sophomore at Jiangnan University, looking about the same age as Lin Xi, but only about 1.7 meters tall and quite slim. Upon hearing Master Liās comment, he curled his lips into a smile he ordinarily never wore and responded with a soft "Hmm," his fingers forming a graceful orchid gesture.
But Master Li, who was driving, didnāt notice this oddity and continued, "You young people are healthy now, but staying up late is no good!"
"Look at me, Iām only forty, but I look over fifty because I spent too many nights in internet cafes when I was younger and ended up like this!"
"And also, the biggest downside of staying up late, it affects the endurance of a happy life!"
"Hehe..." Yan Yichen hummed lightly, a trace of seduction on his face.
The āheheā sounded to Master Li like the young man didnāt believe him, so he kindly persuaded again, "Donāt believe me?"
"Try searching online or ask an experienced person, youāll find out!"
"Or else, youāll regret it when itās too late!"
"Believe me, it wouldnāt even last for three seconds, Iām not scaring you!"
Yan Yichenās pale face, aside from the previous smile, was void of expression, akin to one who has lost their memory, a bit frightening upon closer inspection.
Seeing the young man not replying, Master Li stopped talking and drove as quickly as he could to the destination, as the sooner they arrived, the sooner he could take on his next passenger!
However, this made it hard for the black taxi following him, and if it werenāt for the driverās skill, they wouldāve almost lost him.
Not far from the train station, there was an abandoned building.
This building backed onto the railway, surrounded by some vegetable fields. Rumor had it that a factory was to be built here in the last couple of years, so the abandoned building hadnāt been demolished yet, but itās been uninhabited for a long time.
Master Li parked the car by the roadside, frowning deeply at the building not too far away, "Young man, are you sure this is the place you want to go?"
"Yes!" Yan Yichenās voice was somewhat sharp as he got out of the car, standing by the roadside, staring blankly at the abandoned building as if thinking about something.
At this time, Master Li, listening to his voice, found it somewhat odd, like a womanās voice.
But he had to get out of the car since he hadnāt been paid yet.
"Young man, what are you doing in such an ominous place?" Master Li asked while walking towards Yan Yichen, "Recently, I heard someone died here!"
"It was a beautiful girl, they said she was... well, killed, such a tragedy!"
When Master Li said this, he distinctly felt a shiver run through Yan Yichen as he abruptly turned to look at him, his face illuminated by the remaining twilight, appearing even paler and more frightening, with blackened eye circles, replying eerily,
"Because I live here!"
"..."
"Ah!" Master Li reacted and couldnāt help but scream, stepping back several steps, frightened out of his wits, "Give me the money first, I have to leave!"
Yan Yichen stared coldly at the black taxi driver, taking steps towards him.
"Forget it, call me unlucky, I donāt want the money!" Master Li quickly said upon seeing this.
Then turned to the car door, intending to leave this haunted place immediately!
At the thought of āghostā, he shivered involuntarily, could it be?
"Why wouldnāt you accept the money, do you look down on me?" Before he could take two steps, he heard Yan Yichenās sharp female voice from behind, this time carrying a heavy resentment.
"I donāt want it, really, Iāve got family matters to attend to, I must leave!" Master Li, scalp tingling, grabbed the car handle and sat in the driverās seat.
But before he could catch a breath, he saw that young man from before, somehow, already seated in the front passenger seat, and in that instant, Master Li was almost scared witless!
And looking at his face devoid of emotion, replied imposingly, "Go back with me, Iāll give you the money!"
"I really donāt want it..."
Master Li was scared to death!
"Do you look down on me?" Yan Yichen grasped Master Liās arm with one hand, pulling a gleaming knife from his pocket with the other, "If you donāt go, Iāll stab you!"
"..." Cold sweat dripped from Master Liās forehead, he was now certain, this was exactly like the incident at the train station.
Hadnāt it always been at the train station? How did it end up at the gate of Jiangnan University?
Could it be because there were no more black cabs at the train station?
At this moment, he really wanted to get out and run, but the knife was there, he secretly calculated, estimating an eighty percent chance of getting stabbed.
If stabbed, heād be as helpless as meat on a chopping board.
...
"Alright, stop here!" Lin Xi said to the black taxi driver, "How much?"
"Thirty bucks!"
After paying, Lin Xi got out of the car, hearing the driver mumble, "Old Chenās car, why hasnāt it come out, thereās no road ahead, I recall."
"So they know each other!" Lin Xi thought to himself.
Actually, itās not surprising since they both make a living at the entrance of Jiangnan University.
After the black taxi left, Lin Xi took a turn and saw the black taxi driver, under Yan Yichenās threat, shivering uncontrollably, heading towards the abandoned building.
"X-ray Vision, activate!"
Though the sun had set, it wasnāt very dark yet.
Lin Xi could clearly see a cloud of black smoke-like substance clinging to the fellow student, occasionally changing shape!
No wonder he felt a chill of malevolence at the school gate.
"Could there really be ghosts in this world?" he wondered to himself.
Which means, he wasnāt just randomly scaring Yang Feifei yesterday, there really are ghosts in this world...
He actually still couldnāt quite believe it!
It seems like ever since he obtained the Xuanyuan Dragon Technique, the entire world had changed before his eyes.
But this wasnāt the time to dwell on it because if he continued to worry, Master Li, whoād already been coerced into the building, could be in serious danger!
After all, Lin Xi had a fairly good impression of him now.
If he was still the kind who scammed people with his black taxi before, Lin Xi most likely wouldnāt care about him.
The next moment, Lin Xi quietly moved towards the building.
If someone were behind Lin Xi right now, witnessing this scene, theyād probably be scared to death because he moved a great distance with just a light step, making no sound at all.
Hmm, he hadnāt caught a ghost yet and might be mistaken for one!
That would be really awkward!
