Chapter 646 Sneaky Tricks - Whip Serving

After finding a restaurant and having a good meal, everyone checked into a nearby hotel.

Gao Dongxu and A Ning, along with the three women who were deeply in love, naturally lived together.

As soon as they entered the luxury suite, the four of them took off their coats and overcoats.

Seeing that the black tight-fitting wool dress perfectly outlined A Ning's graceful figure, highlighting her elegant and sexy temperament, Gao Dongxu's desire flared up. Amid A Ning's coquettish voice, he picked her up in a princess carry, took a few quick steps, threw her onto the big bed, and then personally helped her take off her boots.

He casually tossed his boots to the ground, his gaze fixed intently on Aning's beauty. Her snow-white legs, accentuated by the tight-fitting dress, appeared even longer and straighter, every line perfectly proportioned.

What's particularly captivating is that once the socks are removed, the exquisite beauty of the socks adds a touch of casual and natural charm to the entire look, making her appear like a princess straight out of a fairy tale, radiating captivating allure.

Her delicate and petite face, with its soft and graceful lines, is like a work of art carefully crafted by heaven.

Her straight nose bridge makes her face more three-dimensional and exudes a rich exotic charm.

A slight smile curved her lips, a smile as warm and charming as the gentle spring sunshine.

It must be said that, in terms of absolute beauty, Aning is indeed no match for Wu Xiaowei and Tang Nannan.

Fortunately, Ah Ning's beauty is stunning at first glance, the kind of beauty that catches your eye instantly. Although the stunning feeling may fade after looking at her for a while, she is still flawlessly beautiful. Moreover, her girlish charm is absolutely perfect, which is also an important reason why Gao Dongxu is infatuated with her.

What an adorable contrast!

Normally she's a cool, aloof, and sassy older sister, but when she's with Go Dong-wook, she transforms into a shy and adorable young girl.

The pleasure it brings is indescribable.

The four of them slept until after 4 p.m. A-Ning had gotten used to Ru Xin and Ru Qing a few times. There was no way around it; once the bottom line was crossed, there would be no bottom line at all.

After washing up and feeling refreshed, they met up with Wu Xie and the others, and the group drove back to Xikai Church.

At 5:30 p.m., all the elites who had gone out returned, each carrying large bags and small packages, indicating that they had bought quite a lot of things.

After that, Gao Dongxu had them divide into three teams, each team set up a tent in a designated area, collect sleeping bags, and then have a meal.

After finishing their boxed lunches, Gao Dongxu assigned patrol duties to the three teams, starting at 7 p.m. and ending at 5 a.m. the next day, a total of nine hours, with each team patrolling for three hours.

Then, Gao Dongxu ignored the elites and returned to the tent next to the Ghost Locust Tree. There, he and the four women and Wu Xie lit a brazier, grilled some barbecue, drank some wine, and started bragging and joking.

The first half of the night passed peacefully, and everyone assumed that the earthbound spirit wouldn't cause any trouble that night.

However, Gao Dongxu was not about to let the earthbound spirit disrupt his plans. He walked directly to the locust tree and sent a bit of spiritual energy into the trunk.

"Swish—"

In the night breeze, the branches of the locust tree swayed like strange snakes, making a sound.

Wu Xie, Wang Pangzi, and the others couldn't help but twitch their lips as they watched Gao Dongxu's actions. Even a fool could guess that Gao Dongxu was up to no good.

The midnight bells had long since rung, and the spire of the Xikai Church cast a distorted shadow in the pale moonlight. Wu Xie rubbed his hands together and added a few more pieces of wood to the campfire, the sparks crackling and reflecting his furrowed brow.

"Naive, what trick do you think it'll use against us later?" Fatty Wang asked, munching on a roasted chicken wing, grease dripping from his mouth. "It's my first time dealing with something supernatural, I'm actually kind of looking forward to it..."

As Wu Xie took the roasted meat that Hei Xiazi handed him, he took a sip of beer and said, "Based on my experience with the female ghost I encountered in the Corpse Cave last time, it should be a mental attack, that is, an illusion."

"Damn it, I hate illusions. My will isn't that strong. What if it conjures up mountains of gold and a bunch of beauties for me? I'll definitely fall for it..." Fatty Wang grumbled as he secretly glanced at the locust tree, as if he was deliberately saying it for its ears.

Everyone chuckled at the chubby guy's antics. Gao Dongxu leaned back lazily in a large folding moon chair, one arm around A Ning's slender waist as she sat on his lap, the other holding a bottle of beer. He laughed and said, "I brought you here so you could experience this and undergo desensitization training. The more you experience this, the less likely you are to fall for these sneaky tricks in the future, even if you encounter them."

"Boss, what's the best way to get rid of hallucinations?" Fatty Wang asked.

"Pain, of course, that's under normal circumstances. Some strange forces are strong enough that even pain might not work when they create illusions. It mainly depends on your own willpower, being bold yet careful, and not believing any nonsense..." Gao Dongxu explained his understanding.

Just as Gao Dongxu was explaining the solution, the night wind suddenly stopped. The smoke from the campfire no longer flickered, but rose straight into the dark night sky. Gao Dongxu felt a chill creep up his spine for no apparent reason.

"Huh? Where did this fog come from?!" Fatty Wang suddenly exclaimed, dropping the chicken wing in his hand to the ground with a thud.

Only then did everyone notice that a milky white mist had appeared out of nowhere, drifting around and spreading towards them as if it were alive. In less than ten seconds, the entire courtyard was swallowed by the thick fog, and visibility plummeted to less than two meters.

"Attention everyone!" Gao Dongxu shouted, reaching for his walkie-talkie at his waist. Only harsh static filled the radio. The patrol's panicked shouts echoed through the fog, sounding as if they were coming from a great distance. Gao Dongxu realized that Ah Ning, who had been sitting on his lap, was gone.

"Hehe, this is interesting—" Gao Dongxu chuckled mockingly, his voice sounding eerily in the thick fog.

The thick fog dissipated, and the campfire, the tent, A-Ning, Ru-Xin, and Ru-Qing were all gone. He stood alone in front of the church's main entrance, and the church doors were slowly opening inward.

"Please begin your performance—" Gao Dongxu teased with a smile. The interior was not the one he had seen during the day, but a brightly lit corridor with snow-white walls and a gleaming floor, as if time had flowed back decades.

The next moment, he heard crying.

It started with one child sobbing, then two, then three, and soon the entire church echoed with heart-wrenching cries and pleas for help. Gao Dongxu's temples throbbed; those sounds seemed to drill directly into his brain.

"Help! Don't hit me!"

"Mommy. I want my mommy."

"Please, Father, I promise I'll be good next time."

Gao Dongxu's legs moved uncontrollably into the church. Suddenly, countless small handprints appeared on both sides of the corridor, bright red, as if pressed with blood. The temperature plummeted, and his breath condensed in front of him.

Turning the corner, Gao Dongxu abruptly stopped. At the end of the corridor stood a figure in a black priest's robe, his back to him. Five children knelt before the priest, the oldest no more than ten years old, the youngest appearing only four or five. The children trembled, their faces streaked with tears.

“Disobedient child,” the priest’s voice was hoarse and inhuman, “must be punished.”

The priest slowly turned around, and Gao Dongxu's face showed a look of disgust—his face had no features, only a pale white skin.

The faceless priest raised the cane in his hand and lashed it hard at the youngest child. But as the cane fell, it eerily passed through the child's body, as if it were merely an illusion. Yet the child let out a real scream, and a bloody welt immediately appeared on his arm.

Gao Dongxu frowned and stepped forward, raising his foot to kick the priest, but missed the target the instant his foot touched the priest. His foot passed right through the priest's body.

The next moment, the priest and the children disappeared. But the crying didn't stop; instead, it grew closer and clearer.

Gao Dongxu listened carefully and found that the sound came from all directions. He took a step forward, and the scene changed. He was standing in front of the entrance to a basement he had never seen before. A rotten wooden staircase led downwards and disappeared into the darkness. A stench of decay rose up from below, mixed with a scent he had only smelled in old morgues.

"Help us!" a faint child's voice came from the basement.

Gao Dongxu took out a flashlight from his spatial storage, turned it on, and shone the beam of light onto the stairs. The wooden steps were covered with tiny handprints and scratches, as if countless children had tried to climb up but failed. He took a deep breath and began to descend.

Halfway there, the flashlight suddenly flickered a few times and went out. In the darkness, he felt a cold little hand grab his ankle.

“Stay with us.” Countless children’s voices whispered in his ear.

"Dongxu, Dongxu—"

Gao Dongxu originally wanted to experience the Earthbound Spirit's methods, but when he heard A Ning's voice, he frowned slightly and immediately activated his Yuanling Technique, circulating spiritual energy throughout his body. The next moment, he saw A Ning sitting on his lap, shaking him and calling his name.

"what happened?"

"See for yourself, the situation is a bit unexpected—" Aning pointed to Wu Xie, Wang Pangzi, Hei Xiazi, Leng Feng, and Er Pang, who were fighting each other.

As for Ruxin and Ruqing, they had already broken free from the illusion. After all, they were protected by the Five Emperors Coins with spiritual energy given to them by Gao Dongxu. As long as they wanted, they could use their internal energy to activate the spiritual energy within the Five Emperors Coins and regain their senses at any time.

"Ahem..."

"What did they see that made them attack each other so viciously?" Ru Xin asked curiously.

"Let's stop them first, and those elites too, I'm worried they won't be able to hold out."

"Hmm." Gao Dongxu accepted A Ning's suggestion, and as he walked towards the locust tree, he flipped his hand, revealing a magic whip.

Arriving at the locust tree, Gao Dongxu coldly channeled spiritual energy into his magic whip, causing it to faintly glow with a yellow light. The next moment, Gao Dongxu raised his hand and swung the whip, striking the locust tree.

"Crash-"

At that moment, the branches of the locust tree began to tremble violently and make a sound. Gao Dongxu saw an ugly foreign face appear on the locust tree, roaring silently in a ferocious manner.

Gao Dongxu sneered, naturally not going to tolerate it, and began to whip the locust tree again and again.
