Chapter 258: Chapter 191: The True Face of the Haunted House 0wner!_2

Damn!

Xu Yang was even angrier!

This bastard kept crying for mercy and looked extremely terrified. However, he didn’t provide any merit for himself… This meant that he wasn’t actually afraid of him!

He coldly said, “I’ll give you three chances with my hammer. If you don’t die after these three strikes, I’ll let you go!”

Bang!

Xu Yang swung his hammer down again!

This time, the hammer hit the wall.

With a loud rumble, the solid wall was blasted with a large hole.

Wang Tianba looked back at the wall and wailed, “Brother, don’t kill me. I won’t come to your ghost house to cause trouble ever again… And, I’m currently live streaming, thousands of people are watching… If you kill me, the police won’ t let you go!”

Xu Yang: ”     ”

He yanked off the “black blindfold” and scanned the room with his spiritual power, quickly discovering the hidden camera.

“This guy…is not a ghost?

“A live streamer?”

“Could it be that tourist who came to the ghost house to scare people?”

Within a moment, Xu Yang understood the key point. No wonder this guy “wasn’t afraid of me,” it turned out that he wasn’t a ghost, so even if he scared the crap out of him, he couldn’t provide Xu Yang with any merit!

No wonder those slaps felt so good earlier…

Looking at the live streamer lying on the ground, Xu Yang felt a bit embarrassed. He put on the ghost mask, and his figure suddenly disappeared inside the room!

“All ah ah ah!”

“It’s a ghost!”

Wang Tianba looked at the scene, froze for three seconds, and then let out a shriek like a pig being slaughtered!

Inside his live streaming room.

All the viewers watched the sudden disappearance of the “NPC,” feeling chills run down their spine and goosebumps all over their bodies!

Having accomplished his goal, Xu Yang quietly left the third room.

He used the Invisibility Talisman to hide his figure, walking along the empty corridors of the ghost house “Fengdu City,” attempting to find traces of the “NPCs.”

However.

There were no more “NPCs” in this “Fengdu City.”

The previous puppet scared all the other “NPCs” away with just one scream.

“No way?”

“Are these ghosts really so cowardly?”

Xu Yang couldn’t quite believe it.

As he searched all over, he suddenly remembered the advice from the ghost house staff before he entered.

“Don’t easily open the closed doors in the ghost house?”

“Could it be that the ghosts are hidden in those closed-door rooms?”

Xu Yang glanced around.

The doors of the twenty-six rooms in “Fengdu City” were…all wide open!

It’s certain that when he first entered “Fengdu City,” at least ten of these rooms were closed…which meant that the ghosts hidden in those rooms had all escaped.

Xu Yang thought about the words of the ghost house staff.

“Don’t easily touch the plants inside the ghost house?”

He passed through “Fengdu City” and entered the third scene of the ghost house.

In sight, there was a small bridge.

Under the bridge flowed a “small river,” with bright red flowers blooming on both sides of the riverbank.

Bridge of Sorrow, Other Shore Flower, Netherworld River!

The rich fragrance of flowers wafted in the air. Xu Yang took a deep breath, feeling the floral scent refreshing his senses and making him feel relaxed.

“Is this the Other Shore Flower?”

“Legend has it that the shores of the Bridge of Sorrow are filled with blooming Other Shore Flowers.”

“I wonder if these Other Shore Flowers are real or just imitation decorations.”

The Other Shore Flower symbolizes death and, in folklore, is a flower that voluntarily enters the Underworld Palace from the world. It is sent back by the ghosts of the palace and lingers on Huangquan Road, guiding lost souls leaving the world and heading to the Underworld Palace.

But soon, Xu Yang’s face changed.

He felt a faint scent of the flower, which seemed to contain a strange power that affected his soul. However, with just a flick of a thought, Xu Yang dispelled this power.

His “spiritual power” was already strong, and after gaining the “Dream Creation Skill,” his spiritual power had made great progress… After all, this “Dream Creation Skill” was strictly a “soul secret technique.” Without strong spiritual power, how could one practice it?

Such a small amount of power was not enough to truly affect Xu Yang.

But if it were an ordinary visitor, they would definitely fall into a special state, and by then, those “NPCs” could come out and cause some trouble with a shocking effect.

“What exactly does the owner of this ghost house want to do?”

“With the ability to set up these things, their strength is obviously not weak… Opening a ghost house modeled after the Underworld Palace can’t just be for making money, can it?”

Xu Yang became more confused.

He came to the Other Shore Flower and bent down to pick one.

The plucked Other Shore Flower quickly withered, and the broken branch oozed a liquid similar to fresh blood.

“It seems the workers of the ghost house are talking nonsense. I destroyed the plants here, and nothing strange happened?”

Xu Yang looked around, but saw no ghosts.

“Did I scare all the ghosts away?”

“Or is it because I only picked one, and the destruction is not enough?”

Buzz!

On his body, sword aura flowed, and a sword of energy slowly condensed.

Xu Yang was about to chop a few more Other Shore Flowers when suddenly a voice came—

“Master Xu, please hold your hand.”

A beautiful female ghost crossed the Bridge of Sorrow and came towards him from the other side. She looked at Xu Yang with a hint of fear in her eyes and said, “My boss invites you.”

Xu Yang withdrew his “air sword,” frowned, and asked, “Your boss… is in this ghost house?”

“Yes.”

The female ghost said, “My boss likes peace and quiet, so he built a few rooms for himself at the deepest part of this ghost house.”

Xu Yang continued, “Who is your boss?”

“You’ll know once you meet my boss.”

The female ghost played coy.

Xu Yang thought for a moment and then stepped forward, following the female ghost onto the Bridge of Sorrow. He asked, “Your voice sounds familiar. Have we met somewhere before?”

Ding!

“The female ghost is startled, merit value +20.”

Upon hearing this, the female ghost trembled and lowered her head, saying, “I was the puppet just now…”

No wonder the voice sounded familiar.

After crossing the Bridge of Sorrow, the two did not follow the path taken by the tourists. The female ghost found a hidden door behind some climbing plants.

She said, “Many tourists want to find the fifth scene in our ghost house and win the thousand-dollar prize…but it’s actually impossible. Our ghost house doesn’t even have a fifth scene.”

Xu Yang couldn’t help but say, “Isn’t that false advertising?”

The female ghost laughed and said, “It’s not exactly false advertising because the fifth scene is in the hands of my boss… Now, Master Xu, just go straight ahead, and when you reach the end of this passage, you’ll meet the owner.”

With those words, the female ghost turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared into the passage.

Half-believing, Xu Yang walked forward and, at the end of the passage, saw another door.

As he approached, the door creaked open, revealing a spacious living room inside. The decor and layout were similar to the living room of Xu Yang’s mansion, both in European-style luxury.

The living room was fully furnished with a sofa, coffee table, and large TV.

On the sofa, an orange cat lay, staring intently at the television. It held a remote control in its paw, skillfully changing channels. It glanced back at Xu Yang, then continued watching the television.

Xu Yang was shocked…

Could this orange cat be the owner of the ghost house?

Is the ghost house owner a demon?

Just as Xu Yang was about to speak, a voice suddenly sounded from the kitchen

“Master Xu, you’re here?”

An apron-clad, mature woman emerged from the kitchen.
