This place is already a spiritual realm.

Su Wu stood up, took the scroll, and looked forward.

Passing through the atrium is the core of Cang Yue Mansion.

The horrible monster born from the Cang Yue clan, as well as the thing that Cang Yue You asked him to help find, were inside.

Puff puff…

At this moment, the pools around the atrium began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a terrible aura filled the air, distorting everything around it.

Sizzling…

Strange whispers kept exploding in my brain, as if someone was whispering in my ear.

Su Wu couldn't hear clearly this sound that sounded like an illusion.

But he could see.

Behind him, a blood-red figure walked out from the passage leading to the atrium.

Her long jet-black hair was hanging down, and blood was constantly gushing out from under her body, making one's scalp tingle.

Her existence made Su Wu feel uneasy, because he still didn't know what "she" was.

But she gave Su Wu a strong sense of fear.

This feeling…

It seemed as if I could melt easily in front of her.

tread…

tread…

Just like wooden clogs hitting the ground, the water in the atrium surged. The originally clear and transparent water, which seemed nothing under the light, now kept bubbling.

Her existence and her appearance can easily change the surrounding environment.

Su Wu's expression changed slightly. Even from Li Yuan, he had never felt such terrible malice and resentment.

The existence before us is most likely an ancient creature born from the Cang Yue clan’s ritual.

Su Wu didn't think much and immediately rushed towards the entrance leading to the core.

Puff puff…

Blood oozed out, devouring everything around it, transforming it, and everything was turning blood red.

The figure in the scarlet bathrobe looked in the direction Su Wu was heading and raised her hand.

"Let's sink together..."

puff!

It was as if my heart was grabbed. In an instant, an extremely strong fear rose in my heart.

Su Wu only felt the fire at his heart position suddenly expand, and then he struggled to break free from the hand in severe pain.

call…

His figure disappeared into the corridor.

Only the girl in the blood-red bathrobe was left, and she slowly raised her head.

The long black hair was parted, and the light from the sky fell, illuminating an extremely beautiful face.

Her eyes closed tightly, and her body began to sink.

The scarlet blood engulfed her and everything around her.

The same thing happened to the headless body of the Onmyoji, slowly sinking.

……

dong dong dong...

This was the sound of a beating heart. Su Wu felt like he was about to have a myocardial infarction. The sudden touch just now almost made his heart stop beating instantly.

The feeling of being so close to death still frightens him to this day.

The body moved quickly through the corridor.

The core of Cang Yue Mansion, the blood-red bathrobe seems unable to enter.

The entire Cang Yue clan’s secret is hidden here.

Just like the Tianhui clan in the past.

Light gradually appeared in front of Su Wu's eyes.

Firelight…

No, it's the light.

The view suddenly brightened, and then Su Wu appeared in a quiet and bright hall.

The hall is surrounded by wooden red walls, and candlelight flickers in the room.

A strange fragrance filled the air, a bit like sandalwood.

but…

However, Su Wu felt very uncomfortable staying here.

Although the air was filled with fragrance, it felt greasy.

This feeling enveloped his senses all the time, making him feel unsafe here.

Here is…

The core of Cang Yue Mansion.

There is a corridor on each side of the hall.

Unlike the rotten buildings outside, things in the core area seem to be as fresh as new. Not to mention the bright wooden floor that seems to reflect light, the still burning candlesticks alone reveal an eerie feeling.

and…

This place is a bit too clean.

It's as if someone had cleaned it specially.

There is no dust at all...

Su Wu noticed something at this time. He walked to one side and took out a scarlet handkerchief from the corner.

The handkerchief seemed to be covered with blood and was hard as a whole. Su Wu pried it open and saw a dry finger.

This is…

Su Wu's eyes narrowed slightly.

The fingers are short, probably those of a child.

And this finger was wrapped in this familiar handkerchief.

Cang Yue Ling…

This handkerchief belongs to Cang Yue Ling, so is this finger also hers?

Why did she leave her finger behind?

At this moment, a chill suddenly rose up behind me.

Accompanied by the sound of metal friction, Su Wu only felt that something came into the hall.

He subconsciously grabbed the severed finger.

Then he felt that the gaze that was staring at him had moved away.

He subconsciously wanted to turn around and look at the creature that appeared in the hall behind him.

But a small pale blue hand grabbed his cheek.

“Don’t look…”

Su Wu was stunned.

A light blue figure appeared in his sight. She had long silver hair and looked almost exactly like Cang Yueyou.

She just looks very young and kind of cute.

At this moment, the blue ghost was crawling out from that finger, and her tender little white hand was pressing on his cheek. She looked a little uneasy, as if she was afraid that he would turn his head, or open his mouth to attract the attention of the thing behind him.

The sound of metal friction continued to ring out, and corresponding to it was a very unpleasant smell of rust and blood, accompanied by the stench of decay.

The whole living room seemed to smell bad with the arrival of that thing.

then…

It seemed that Su Wu was not found, and the sound of metal friction slowly disappeared in a corridor.

At this time, the little hand that was holding Su Wu's cheek relaxed.

"I was really scared just now..." The cute little ghost patted his flat chest with his white and tender hands, with a look of fear on his face.

"How did you get in? This shouldn't be a place that outsiders can enter, right?" She began to look at Su Wu, and then her eyes lit up.

"Oh, you are very beautiful..."

Su Wu looked at her but didn't say anything.

As if she saw his worry, the girl said, "Don't worry, Grandpa has left. Although she may come back, at least she is safe now and you can talk."

call…

Su Wu then slowly exhaled, but the little ghost in front of him seemed very light, so Su Wu blew her over and over again with one breath.

"Hey! Be careful..."

The girl quickly grabbed Su Wu's arm and stopped flipping. Then she heard Su Wu's words: "Who are you?"

"You're really rude to ask a girl's name right at the start. Shouldn't you introduce yourself while asking others?" The girl looked at Su Wu, but still introduced herself.

"My name is Cang Yue Ling. As you can see, I am now a small earthbound spirit. Although I don't know how I became this thing, since you can see me, you should be an Onmyoji."

Su Wu did not nod, but said: "My name is Su Wu."

"Su Wu? What a strange name. There don't seem to be many such names in Neon." The girl scratched her head.

"But forget it. You must have a lot of questions to ask me now, but this is not the place to talk. Grandpa may come over at any time. If she finds you, it will be terrible." After saying this, she floated in a certain direction: "Please follow me..."

Su Wu did not sense any malice or resentment from Cang Yue Ling.

So maybe this guy is really just an earthbound spirit imprisoned here as she said.

So Su Wu released his perception and followed.

"Oh, this really makes me feel emotional. I didn't expect that after such a long time, there would still be guests coming here. Even I had given up!" Cang Yue Ling sighed in an old-fashioned manner as she floated. She looked more like an old woman than a little girl.

But she looks like a cute porcelain doll and speaks words that are full of vicissitudes of life, which makes her look inexplicably cute.

Then Su Wu followed her to a small room.

"This is my room in the past. Although it's not big, it's one of the few places Grandpa doesn't want to come to, so it's absolutely safe for you to stay here. But you can't stay too long. After all, Grandpa has a keen nose, and she will come over sooner or later."

At this time, Su Wu spoke up: "Is the grandfather you mentioned the head of the Cang Yue clan?"

Upon hearing this, Cangyue Ling scratched his head and said, "I think so, but grandpa hates other people calling him the head of the family. He prefers to do some weird things in his room." Cangyue Ling tilted his head and thought about it.

"strange things?"

"I don't know the details. I have very few memories. Although I have become an earthbound spirit now, I have almost forgotten all the memories of my past life..." Cang Yue Ling shook her head, and then she took a cup of tea.

"I want some tea... ah, sorry, I'm used to it... sorry..." She suddenly woke up and quickly put the cup back.

Although he has been dead for a long time, his human habits have not been forgotten.

"But I'm also a little curious. How did you get in, Su Wusang? I remember Sister An was in the outer area. How could you enter the core through her area?"

Miss An...

Su Wu's eyes moved slightly: "Are you referring to the woman covered in blood?"

Hearing Su Wu say this, Cang Yue Ling was stunned for a moment, then his expression became a little complicated: "Sister An is still the same..."

The girl's expression seemed a little lost because of Cang Yue'an.
