Chapter 81 Cannibals

Seeing the black cat's bloodied and mangled neck, Kong Tingting said with a pang of pity, "Aren't you going to treat its wounds?"

“It?” Bei Rou glanced at the black cat. “It’s a demon beast. Although most of them are not allowed to become spirits now, it’s not an ordinary animal. It has a great ability to recover.”

The black cat glanced at Bei Rou with its narrow eyes, its gaze filled with murderous intent. After a few seconds, it looked away and continued to look at the photo.

Ten minutes later, the black cat recalled the person's appearance and scent from its memory, closed its eyes, and kept sniffing the air.

"What is it doing?" Xu Anyu asked curiously.

"It's searching for Du Yan's scent," Bei Rou explained, smiling confidently. With Black Wind on its side, it was sure to find Du Yan; after all, Black Wind was her most powerful demon beast.

About half an hour later, Bei Rou was getting impatient. She frowned and snapped, "Isn't it ready yet?"

At this moment, the black cat opened its eyes, looked at her, and meowed a few times.

"Tsk." Bei Rou clicked her tongue in disdain. "Is it really that complicated?"

"What's wrong?" Gu Yuanhong asked, frowning in confusion.

"This guy said it hasn't come out for too long, the smells here are too complicated, and Du Yan has a magic artifact to hide its tracks, so it needs a little more time, maybe three days. Brother Yuan Hong, don't worry, we'll definitely find Du Yan in three days!" Bei Rou explained to Gu Yuan Hong, then scolded the black cat, "What a useless piece of trash!"

Bei Rou has a contract with the black cat, so even if the black cat is meowing, she can understand what the black cat is trying to express.

Seeing this, Gu Yuanhong frowned and said, "Since that's the case, then let it investigate for three days."

Bei Rou nodded. "Then go find somewhere to stay for three days. I don't want to see you."

The black cat glanced at her quietly, nodded, jumped off the table, and went outside.

"You're just going to let it go out and find some random place and leave it alone?" Kong Tingting was speechless. How could there be such an owner? That cat is so pitiful.

Bei Rou glanced at Kong Tingting and said, "Don't make me remind you again, it's a demon beast, not an ordinary animal, nor my pet. It's just a tool."

Although she felt sorry for the cat, she was not its owner and had no right to say anything. Kong Tingting stomped her foot angrily. If she posted these scenes of abusing the cat online, she would definitely be cyberbullied.

Sun Sheng put his arm around Kong Tingting's shoulder to comfort her, then glanced at Bei Rou. "This woman isn't a good person. We're not going to play with her."

Bei Rou rolled her eyes at the two of them.

"Alright, since we can't find it now, Bei Rou, you should rest for a bit. I'll have Kong Tingting take you to the front desk to get a room. Prepare well these next few days, and we'll make our move in three days," Gu Yuanhong instructed. "Okay," Bei Rou replied with a smile.

Kong Tingting pouted and reluctantly led Bei Rou to the front desk. She had initially been looking forward to her new colleague, but now her expectations were dashed; she couldn't get along with this woman.

After everyone left, Xu Anyu picked up her tablet and leaned against the bed to play games. "No matter what her abilities are, I don't want her as my teammate. Hong-ge, can you tell Lin-ge?" This guy has a bad temper. Although he doesn't keep pets, he doesn't like seeing others treat animals like this.

Gu Yuanhong nodded. He didn't want to cooperate with Bei Rou either. He needed to have a serious talk with his brother. A person's ability is important, but their character is also important.

The black cat avoided the people and went to the emergency exit. It jumped out of the window there, where there was a small terrace that extended outwards. This could serve as its temporary shelter. It scratched at the iron collar around its neck with its paw. One day it would definitely get rid of this iron lump!
After Yang Nianqing and Fan Ruichen returned to the hotel, Yang Nianqing took out the spirit-nurturing stone from her pocket. "Achen, look!"

Fan Ruichen picked up the stone and examined it closely. It was dark and irregular, lacking any aesthetic appeal. Fan Ruichen asked in confusion, "What is this? What an ugly stone."

"Well, it really doesn't look very good." "This is the reward that the Black and White Impermanence gave me, the Spirit Nourishing Stone, a secret treasure of the Underworld." After explaining the effects of the Spirit Nourishing Stone to Fan Ruichen, Yang Nianqing took out the Heavenly Silkworm Silk and began to weave it. She wanted to weave the Spirit Nourishing Stone into a necklace for Fan Ruichen to wear.

"Although it's not very pretty, it can nourish your soul and greatly help you cultivate your superpowers. I've studied it carefully. The mental power cultivated by mental superpowers is actually a person's mental power, the power of the soul. The stronger your soul, the stronger your superpowers will be. And as you level up, the side effects of your superpowers will be less." Yang Nianqing's fingers flew as she continuously wove the necklace, adding a few beads engraved with magic arrays. In a moment, the necklace was finished. The black necklace was inlaid with several green jade beads, looking quite elegant and beautiful, and the black stones also gave it a unique character.

Yang Nianqing handed it to Fan Ruichen, "How is it? My skills are pretty good, right? Does it look good?"

"It's beautiful." Fan Ruichen took the necklace and looked at it, and was very satisfied. Yang Nianqing's handiwork was always excellent, and the bracelet she made was also very beautiful. Fan Ruichen asked Yang Nianqing to put it on for him and played with the spirit-nurturing stone with great affection.

The green beads on the necklace are made of the finest jade, serving as protective charms against evil spirits. Wearing them would make Fan Ruichen feel safer.

After finishing Fan Ruichen's necklace, Yang Nianqing started weaving her own. She decided to make it shorter, otherwise it wouldn't look good for her to wear two necklaces around her neck. Fortunately, the Spirit Stone wasn't very big, so it didn't look out of place for her to wear two necklaces of different lengths.

"Qingqing, since you promised the Black and White Impermanence to help them capture Du Yan, what methods do you have? After all, it's been some time since we placed protective talismans on Xu Anyu and Gu Yuanhong, but they still haven't found him."

Yang Nianqing stopped weaving and looked at Fan Ruichen seriously, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, they'll be found soon." It seems Du Yan and those two are quite destined for each other.

Fan Ruichen was still somewhat worried, "If you can't beat that person, don't be reckless, run away first, understand?"

Yang Nianqing nodded and reached out to smooth Fan Ruichen's furrowed brows. "Okay! Don't worry, even if I can't beat him, I still have my ancestor." She lifted the phoenix blood jade around her neck and shook it playfully. "The door key has always been hanging around my neck."

After finishing weaving the necklace, it was getting late. Yang Nianqing said goodnight to Fan Ruichen and went back to her room.

It was a dark and windy night, and all was quiet. A satisfied sigh came from a cemetery on the outskirts of Jiangcheng. Several ghosts, who had died in different ways, huddled together, trembling as they looked at the man opposite them who had just devoured the souls of their companions.

I've always heard of ghosts eating people, but this is the first time these original residents of the cemetery have ever seen people eating ghosts! The group tried to escape, but they were trapped by a protective shield. If they touched it even slightly, they would be in danger of being reduced to ashes.
