🌺🍁Chapter 54 : Hateful Snapped Sword!

"If you're really General Pei, then why did that yellow talisman leave an ashen mark on your forehead?"

"It's simple. It's all thanks to this."Pei Ming said, tossing a small item to Xie Lian.

Xie Lian used the tip of his sword, skewered it and bring it up to his eyes. "Candy?" On the tip of his sword was a shiny black candy.

Pei Ming threw another one into his mouth."It's a Ghost Scented Candy, I bought this from Ghost City. Just chew one and you'll be having an essence of evil, flowing inside and out."He said. "It's useful when pretending to be inhumane creature."

Xie Lian twiddled the Ghost Scented candy, "You can buy such things like this in Ghost City?"he asked, amazed. Pei Ming munched on the candy. "Ask your Hua Chengzhu right next to you. Flavors not bad, Your highness. Wanna try one?"

Xie Lian became curious when your brows knitted together and your face looks at the candy in disgust. "If that's the case, we should've gotten some of these before we came."he said. Hua Cheng took the candy from his hand and said, "Gege, if you want anything in Ghost City, you can only ask me." You push Hua Cheng's hand that was holding the candy away. "But don't eat stuff like this! It smells disgusting!"

"Why?"

With a swift of your hand, the black candy dissolved into a wisp of black smoke. Hua Cheng explained. "Everything in the Ghost City is dangerous. This candy comes from a shady production house and the ingredients are most likely vulgar and unknown ghosts origins. Eating it will damage the body." He then teased you by getting the candy pill near your nose but you slap his hand causing Hua Cheng to pout.

"It's alright. It's only for emergencies, not like it's eaten regularly."Pei Ming said, not even thinking about it slightly.

You continued. "And the smell is pungent. Heavenly officials and mortals can't smell it, but the more vulgar the ghost...the more rancid the smell."

"..."

Hua Cheng snickered. "Do you understand now why those female ghosts told you to get lost?"

"..."

Xie Lian cleared his throat softly. "General Pei, let's...not eat this anymore."

"Fine" General Pei pulled out the leftover Ghost Scented Candies and tossed them all out. "We've only just reached the outer edges of Mount Tong'lu."He said. "After going further in, there'll be even more powerful demons and monsters that can tell with a look that were suspicious. What shall we do then?"

While they were talking, you looked over to Swift-Blade Demon corpse the ground where he was is empty. Startled, you spoke, "Swift-Blade Demon is gone." Pei Ming was taken aback. "I clearly slashed him at the waist just now!"

"Gege, be careful. In Mount Tong'lu, the more opponents killed, the stronger the slayer."Hua Cheng said, darkly.
