Urban Evil Suppression: Incorporating the Stone Hard Template

Chapter 75 The Token – The Jade Pendant!

Ling Feng looked at the ghost general whose mind was on the verge of collapse and casually relieved its soul pain!

However, it didn't even glance at Ling Feng, its eyes still fixed on Zhou Mei.

As if all their strength had been exhausted, only a deathly stillness remained in their crimson pupils.

"You...you...you really...have absolutely no recollection of this place?"

The sudden question caught Zhou Mei completely off guard.

I was completely baffled, and I wondered to myself:

Did this ghost general suffer too much of a shock and lose his mind?

She then glanced at Ling Feng, silently conveying her doubts.

Unexpectedly, Ling Feng's expression was just as bewildered as hers, and he asked in a low voice:

"Are you sure...you don't recognize it?"

"I don't know him at all!" Zhou Mei shook her head firmly at Ling Feng.

"It's grown up like this, how could I possibly recognize who it is?"

Besides, it just asked if I had any impression of this place!

"So, what's your impression of this place? Think carefully..."

Ling Feng tilted his head slightly and had a quiet, in-depth conversation with Zhou Mei.

"Really, no!"

Zhou Mei then leaned closer, biting his ear and whispering:

"Including this time, I've only been here twice in total. What kind of impression could I possibly have?"

After a pause, Zhou Mei glanced cautiously at the ghost general, then whispered in Ling Feng's ear:

"Do you think it's asking me? Or maybe it's asking you?"

"Are you stupid?" Ling Feng casually flicked Zhou Mei on the forehead.

"Its attention has always been on you, what does it have to do with me!"

Zhou Mei touched her forehead, feeling wronged: "I don't know either! I have absolutely no clue."

The ghost general waited for a long time but didn't hear Zhou Mei's reply. He also noticed that the two of them were whispering to each other.

Ignoring himself completely, the fire in his empty eye sockets dimmed even further.

Then he turned his gaze to Ling Feng and pleaded, "Could you help me remove these chains?"

Ling Feng frowned and did not agree immediately, after all, the request was very impolite.

The fact that someone likes to play the game of "living as long as heaven and earth" at the drop of a hat indicates that they are an extremely dangerous entity.

Especially given its current mental state, which is on the verge of collapse, once the lightning restraint is lifted...

If that resolute thought were to resurface, given how close the two sides are currently,

Even if he reacts quickly, he will definitely suffer serious injuries even if he is not sent away!

For Ling Feng, who always seeks stability, it is absolutely unacceptable to put himself in such an adverse situation.

After waiting for a moment, the ghost general also noticed the concern in Ling Feng's eyes.

The hollow voice revealed a sense of loneliness and bitterness:

"Don't worry! I won't self-destruct again. I just want to take something out!"

If you're really worried, you can remove some of the restraints on me!

Hearing this, Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "What do you want to take?"

"A jade pendant!" the ghost general exclaimed when he mentioned the words "jade pendant."

The previously barely flickering flame in his eyes suddenly softened!

To avoid causing Ling Feng to misunderstand, it even added:

"It's just an ordinary jade pendant!"

Ling Feng's calm eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly made a decision.

A thin, silvery-blue lightning bolt silently flowed across Ling Feng's fingertip.

For his own and Zhou Mei's safety, he only released one-third of the restraints on the ghost general.

It had enough of its own limited power to retrieve the item from its soul palace.

However, it is not enough to trigger a self-destruction or a surprise attack!

As the lightning chains on the demon general's body diminished, a wisp of dark gray ghostly energy emerged.

It slowly floated out from its chest cavity, and within the ghostly aura was an antique wooden box.

It is not large, only about the size of a palm, and the box is carved with exquisite intertwined floral patterns.

Supported by the ghostly energy, it slowly floated towards Zhou Mei.

Zhou Mei initially instinctively hid behind Ling Feng, but she couldn't resist her curiosity.

But when her gaze fell upon the wooden box,

A strange, inexplicable feeling of bitterness welled up inside me.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find any information related to the wooden box in her twenty years of memories.

Ling Feng calmly took the wooden box from her and then opened it.

Inside the wooden box, besides a piece of velvet lining the bottom, only a jade pendant lay quietly.

Just as the ghost general said, it was indeed an ordinary jade pendant.

Even the jade itself isn't particularly good; its color is dull, and there are several very obvious scratches on the edges.

Ling Feng reached into the wooden box and took the jade pendant out, examining it carefully for a moment.

Aside from the jade pendant having a faintly engraved character "意" (meaning/intent) on its back,

I didn't find anything special about it; it was just an ordinary thing.

However, Zhou Mei's reaction was somewhat unexpected by Ling Feng.

Especially upon seeing the jade pendant, he subconsciously took half a step forward.

Ling Feng called her twice, but she seemed to be under a spell and didn't react at all!

Her beautiful eyes were fixed intently on the unremarkable jade pendant.

It wasn't until Ling Feng, fearing something might happen to her, patted her shoulder twice that she regained her composure.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you spacing out?"

"Did I... zone out? I don't know!" Zhou Mei blinked.

I have absolutely no recollection of my unusual behavior just now!

"Brother Feng, can I take a look at the jade pendant?"

"Give!"

Ling Feng casually handed over the jade pendant, but his mind was constantly focused on Zhou Mei.

As soon as Zhou Mei took the jade pendant, her heart clenched, clearly feeling a tightness in her chest.

"How strange, I... I'm certain I've never seen this jade pendant before!"

But... why do I feel such a strong sense of familiarity whenever I see it?

It makes me want to get closer to it, and I don't know why.

Especially this character "意" (meaning/intent)! Just seeing it makes my eyes inexplicably sting... and I feel like crying.

The ghost general, bound by chains of lightning, was instantly excited upon seeing this scene.

The crimson flames in his eye sockets suddenly surged violently:

"You...you recognized it, didn't you? Do you still remember something from the past?"

"I...I don't know!" Zhou Mei clutched the jade pendant in her hand, her face blank and at a loss.

"I really can't remember anything, and I don't know what you're talking about!"

Neither the jade pendant nor you have any recollection of me.
