Chapter 1371: Chapter 1365

But at present, they were imprisoned in the cell. Where could they find those refreshments?

It seemed they still had to find a way to escape.

"Aunt Wan, don’t worry. As long as we can get out, I can save you."

Xin Lin said, taking out some Jade Pure Spring and feeding it to Wan Niang.

Wan Niang and the maid nannies had been locked up here for a day and a night without a drop of water, and by now they were utterly exhausted.

The maids and nannies saw Wan Niang drinking water, and their eyes showed envy, but because of Xin Lin, nobody dared to make a sound.

Taking advantage of Wan Niang’s resting time, Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue looked around.

"This place, it’s surrounded by walls all around, and who knows how deep underground it is. The female ghost is very strong; it will be difficult for us to escape."

Murong Ziyue expressed her concern.

The female ghost wasn’t eating them for now, but who knows when she might suddenly go on a rampage.

"For now, there’s no need to worry. By nightfall, she heads out. After dark, she should leave again. Besides, Mu Chen must have already noticed we’re missing and will definitely start searching."

Xin Lin pondered aloud.

"The people from Fengdong might not be able to find this place."

Murong Ziyue sighed.

"I left some clues. He’ll definitely find us. The question is whether the people from Fengdong can take down that female ghost."

Xin Lin mused.

But before night fell again, the cell was suddenly ablaze with light.

That faint bluish-purple flame appeared once more.

"Newcomers, come out."

A female voice floated from the bluish-purple flame.

Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue were startled.

"I remember, there were two new women tonight. Come out. I have questions for you."

Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue exchanged glances.

Wan Niang nervously gripped Murong Ziyue’s hand.

"It’s us. Lord Ghost, what do you command?"

Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue didn’t hide and came forward.

"What’s your family name?"

After the female ghost left, she recalled that she had been too busy eating and forgot the main task.

She still needed to quickly find that summoning master named Xin Lin.

Both women’s eyes showed a trace of surprise.

Just as those mercenaries said, the female ghost asked everyone she met.

Could it be, she was searching for someone?

"My name is..."

Seeing Xin Lin not responding, Murong Ziyue opened her mouth to answer.

"Confess honestly. If I find out you’re lying, I’ll eat you."

The bluish-purple flames leaped a few inches higher.

"My last name is Murong."

Murong Ziyue replied, and as she answered, she felt as though she was being watched intently — as if a pair of eyes were right ahead, staring directly at her, making her scalp tingle with fear.

It felt as though the opponent could see through her, leaving her very much alarmed.

Next up was Xin Lin.

Xin Lin hesitated internally, debating whether to confess truthfully.

To be truthful, upon hearing the Heart Bell’s voice, Xin Lin sensed that this female ghost must be related to Gui Hu.

She also had a premonition that the person the female ghost was searching for might be related to her.

If she confessed now, she feared the female ghost might swallow her whole.

"Speak quickly!"

The female ghost grew impatient.

The summoning master named Xin Lin mentioned by the Corpse King had yet to appear.

When the female ghost spoke, Xin Lin felt as though her soul had been probed.

That feeling...

The female ghost obviously knew some special spirit art that could discern a person’s thoughts.

In Xin Lin’s mind, a pair of eyes appeared.
