Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

Zhu Huan will be out soon, and given his personality, he will definitely become even more ruthless once he's out.

Going in will only make him hate more.

Sister Liu understood what he meant, took a deep breath, and her eyes became firm.

"It's okay, Xiaolin, don't worry about me. Once he gets out, I'll divorce him! I'm serious this time; I've had enough after all these years!"

"Yes, divorce!"

Tongtong also spoke softly from behind.

Lin Xuan nodded, took out two business cards from his pocket, and handed them to Sister Liu and Tongtong.

"Okay, Sister Liu, I was just about to say that I recently started a company. If you don't mind, you can come to my cafeteria."

Sister Liu took the business card and looked at it.

It was printed with the words "Lin An Group - Lin Xuan" in large characters, along with a phone number.

She froze for a moment.

Lin'an Group?

Although I've never heard of it, just seeing the word "group" tells me it must be a big company.

But why doesn't Kobayashi have a position?

Although she was puzzled, she didn't ask any further questions.

"Then we won't bother you any longer today. Sister Liu, please take Tongtong home to rest early."

As Lin Xuan spoke, he turned and led Chen Xiaoran away.

Behind.

"Tongtong..."

"Mom, let's get a divorce."

"Sigh... Let's get a divorce! We'll get a divorce as soon as he gets out! From now on, we should learn more from your brother Lin Xuan."

"Um!!"

.

By the time this commotion ended, it was already past 11 p.m.

The two left the small square and returned to the long alley.

The alley was quiet, a stark contrast to the hustle and bustle just moments before.

The old walls on both sides appeared particularly silent in the night.

"Lin Xuan, why doesn't Sister Liu divorce that scumbag sooner?"

On the way, Chen Xiaoran asked.

Lin Xuan thought for a moment, then slowly spoke:

"Perhaps it's because they're afraid of affecting Tongtong. Children from single-parent families are always more sensitive."

"But if two people aren't compatible, shouldn't they break up? Why torture each other?" Chen Xiaoran said, her voice tinged with sadness. "My mom back then..."

stab-

As she was speaking, the already dim streetlights in the alley suddenly all went out.

In an instant, the entire alley was plunged into complete darkness.

"what!"

Chen Xiaoran screamed in fright and grabbed Lin Xuan's arm tightly.

She was practically clinging to him, her body trembling.

Lin Xuan squinted and looked around.

Everything was dark and blurry; nothing could be seen clearly.

"It's nothing, it's probably just a power outage."

He patted Chen Xiaoran's hand.

"This is an old power system, the lines are worn out, and this happens frequently. When I was in school, it would go out several times a month."

"By the way, we weren't originally going to watch a movie, but just think of it as a horror movie. It'll be so immersive and exciting."

"Shh! Don't say that!"

Chen Xiaoran was already a little afraid of the dark, and now that she heard this, images from horror movies instantly flashed through her mind.

The midnight bell, the curse, the ghost doll—all of these things suddenly appeared, scaring her so much that she burrowed into Lin Xuan's arms.

Lin Xuan chuckled and led her forward.

"By the way, you mentioned your mother earlier?"

Chen Xiaoran shook her head vigorously, losing all interest in speaking.

She just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and return to a place with light.

"Hurry, let's go! I feel like something is watching us."

"Okay, then hurry up!"

Lin Xuan could tell she was genuinely scared, so he nodded and quickened his pace.

In the darkness, only the echoing footsteps of the two echoed.

Da da da, very rhythmic.

Five minutes later.

Lin Xuan frowned.

Not right.

This road... shouldn't take this long to walk.

When they arrived, it only took them five or six minutes to walk from the alley entrance to the small square.

Having walked for so long, we should have reached the end by now.

But looking ahead, there was still no light.

There wasn't even a sound.

But he didn't speak, afraid of scaring Chen Xiaoran, and continued walking forward.

Five minutes later.

Lin Xuan stopped in his tracks.

"How's it going? Are you out yet?"

Throughout the journey, Chen Xiaoran kept her head down and her eyes tightly closed.

When the place suddenly stopped, she happily looked up, thinking she had reached the alley entrance.

But upon closer inspection, it was still pitch black.

Even she realized something was wrong.

First of all, they hadn't been in there for that long.

Secondly, the darkness seemed a bit off.

Apart from a few stars in the sky, there wasn't a single ray of light in the entire alley!

This is really not right!

And why is there no sound at all?

It's as if this alley is isolated by something.

"Lin Xuan..."

Chen Xiaoran's voice began to tremble, her small hands gripped him tightly, her palms were covered in cold sweat.

"It's alright, keep going."

Lin Xuan nodded without saying anything more, his tone remaining calm.

He continued leading Chen Xiaoran forward.

As he walked, he circulated his internal energy, concentrating it at his eyes.

He had used this method to find the source of the yin energy in An Lan's office before.

With the blessing of true essence, one can see things that ordinary people cannot.

really.

This time, as his true essence gathered in his eyes, he discovered that the scenery before him was also beginning to change.

They were no longer in an alley, but in a huge fog.

The fog was so thick it was impossible to see anything; it was a hazy gray, and nothing could be seen clearly.

And it was still churning, as if it were alive.

The two walked for a while and he realized that they were indeed going in circles!

There were traces of their footsteps on the ground.

A ghost wall?!

For a moment, this word came to his mind.

I'd only ever read about this in novels before; I never imagined I'd actually encounter it today.

"Lin Xuan, I'm scared..."

Beside her, Chen Xiaoran spoke softly, her voice trembling and choked with sobs.

She clung to Lin Xuan, wishing she could become a part of him.

"It's nothing, just a minor incident, don't worry."

Lin Xuan held Chen Xiaoran tightly with one arm and gently patted her body.

He raised his other hand and began to form a hand seal.

We walked for a while longer.

Lin Xuan noticed that it was getting darker and darker.

Even now, the two of them can't even see the distance between them, which is about a meter in front of and behind them.

"Xiao Ran," Lin Xuan suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?" Chen Xiaoran looked up.

"Do you believe me?" Lin Xuan blurted out out of the blue.

"Huh? I believe you!" Chen Xiaoran answered without hesitation, her voice still trembling but firm.

"good!"

As he spoke, Lin Xuan suddenly changed direction, dragging Chen Xiaoran and crashing headfirst into the wall beside them.

high speed.

Chen Xiaoran's eyes widened, but she bit her lip, refusing to speak.

She believed in Lin Xuan!

really!

The scene before their eyes suddenly shifted.

The alleyway before them was no longer the one they had been in; instead, they found themselves in a small courtyard.

This place is very desolate, and it's obvious that no one has lived here for a long time.

The ground was covered with wild grass, as tall as a person, swaying in the night wind and making a rustling sound.

The courtyard wall was dilapidated, with bricks scattered all over the ground and moss covering the surface.

The most frightening thing is that there is a lonely well in the middle of the courtyard, which looks particularly out of place.
