When Qin Feng opened his eyes again, the ugly hours had already passed.
He shrugged his shoulders and quietly glanced in the direction of the bed.
He didn’t know how Miss Cang slept, or whether she had any special sleeping habits.
He didn’t have any perverted thoughts. He just feared that her sleeping posture might be unsightly and wanted to cover her with the blanket.
But upon closer inspection, the bed was still empty, just as it was when he arrived.
Qin Feng stood up and looked around. Where could Miss Cang have gone?
“Late at night, where could she go?” Qin Feng was somewhat worried.
“Did she go look for traces of the undead in the city on her own?”
That strong-willed girl might actually do such a thing!
Thinking of this, he dared not delay any longer and hurried to the door, intending to find Lord Si and Zhang Tiannan to search for Miss Cang together.The moment he opened the door, a foul smell filled the air.
When he was in the guest room, he didn’t smell anything.
At a glance, Qin Feng was horrified to see more than ten undead bodies lying on the floor in all directions!
Looking to the side, Cang Feilan had her arms crossed in front of her, leaning against the wall, as if guarding.
The tips of her black hair were tinged with silver, scattered yet not disheveled.
“Are you awake?” Cang Feilan said lightly.
“What happened here?”
Cang Feilan recounted everything that had happened.
“The undead disaster here may be more serious than we originally imagined. We must seek help from the Demon Slaying Department.” Her calm tone reached this conclusion.
But Qin Feng, at this moment, was not concerned about the undead.
He questioned, “Why didn’t you wake me up?!”
Cang Feilan was stunned. It was the first time she heard him speak so sternly: “Just some first and second-stage calamity force undead, I can handle it alone.”
“What you see is only on the surface. As we mentioned before, behind the calm city, there may be undead with intelligence and great power controlling everything! What if it also comes here and attacks you when you are unprepared?”
Under the black square scarf, the beauty pursed her lips and replied, “Even so, I can handle it.”
Qin Feng opened his mouth but was speechless. This was her personality, and he had known it for a long time.
He only regretted being too immersed in his cultivation. How could he not feel such a commotion outside?
Taking a deep breath and grabbing the opponent’s shoulders, Qin Feng said solemnly, “I know you can handle it, but I’m afraid you’ll get hurt. Do you understand?”
At these words, Cang Feilan’s heart felt like a little deer running wild. Her cheeks were blushing, and her pink ears were exceptionally charming.
However, her words remained firm: “I won’t get hurt.”
Qin Feng laughed in exasperation, issuing a threat that didn’t sound much like one, “If you plan to keep facing danger alone without telling me, then I think we don’t need to carry out missions together anymore. After all, you always believe you can rely on yourself, don’t you?”
A hint of panic flashed in Cang Feilan’s eyes.
Seeing this, Qin Feng shook his head helplessly. He had to go find Si Zheng and the others to discuss the matter of the corpse demon together.
But just as he passed by Miss Cang, she grabbed his sleeve.
“What’s wrong?”
“I was wrong.” Her voice was barely audible.
“Huh?” This truly surprised Qin Feng.
The always strong-willed Miss Cang actually admitted her mistake voluntarily. Could it be that his threat just now had worked?
“What did you say? I didn’t hear clearly.” Qin Feng wanted to confirm again.
But Cang Feilan just glared at him angrily and then walked straight towards the stairs.
Qin Feng looked at her departing figure, glanced at the corpses scattered on the ground, and his expression became extremely serious.
Amidst Zhang Tiannan’s snoring, Si Zheng, who had finally fallen asleep, was awakened by a knocking at the door.
He impatiently opened the door, wanting to see who was so inconsiderate as to disturb him at this late hour.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Qin Feng and Cang Feilan with solemn faces.
Si Zheng immediately understood that something must have happened.
The four of them went up to the third-floor attic, and they were shocked to see more than ten corpses.
Si Zheng and Zhang Tiannan exchanged glances, frowning.
With their strength, even while sleeping, they would remain vigilant to external dangers.
But so many corpses died in the restaurant, and they didn’t notice at all?
“Did you two handle these corpses together?” Si Zheng asked.
Qin Feng wanted to answer yes, but unfortunately, he didn’t have that qualification.
“It was Miss Cang who handled them alone.”
Si Zheng looked thoughtfully at Miss Cang. Even though they had worked together for a long time, her true strength remained a mystery to him.
To be able to silently deal with so many corpses, what kind of amazing skills must she possess?
But he didn’t dwell too much on this issue, but said directly: “Let’s go into the room and talk about what’s going on?”
In the guest room, Qin Feng repeated what Cang Feilan had said earlier. Hearing this, Si Zheng and Zhang Tiannan frowned.
“The targets of these corpse demons are very clear—they are targeting the two of you. No, more precisely, they are after you, young man. After all, you cured the common people infected with corpse poison.” Si Zheng analyzed.
Qin Feng nodded and added, “Now we can confirm that there is a corpse demon in Shuliang City, and behind them is a powerful corpse king with intelligence. I carefully examined the bodies of those corpse demons just now and found some unusual things.”
“What’s unusual?” Si Zheng asked curiously.
“These people should not be ordinary civilians. Although their flesh is dried up, you can see that they were strong in vitality. They should all be warriors who practice the divine martial arts.”
“Looking at the degree of decay in their bodies, they must have been dead for at least sixty years.”
“And I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but there are some similar traces on their tattered clothes and exposed skin.”
“For example, on the back of their clothes, you can faintly see a pattern resembling a fierce tiger.”
“On their arms and chests, there are also similar vague tattoos. These people probably knew each other during their lifetime. As long as we can find clues about that tiger pattern, we might be able to uncover the truth behind these corpse demons.’
Si Zheng nodded slightly, “In the Demon Slaying Department, there should be local documents. You can go there to find relevant information.”
“The situation here is beyond the scope of the four of us; we must seek assistance from elsewhere.”
The matter of the corpse demons is significant. If not handled properly, it could be a huge disaster for the entire region!
“To avoid panic caused by the corpse demons, it’s best to have Amu bring people over to dispose of those corpses outside.” Qin Feng suggested.
After saying this, Zhang Tian Nan stood up, as if he was volunteering to go to Shuliang City’s Demon Slaying Department to seek help.
However, he was promptly stopped by Si Zheng and Qin Feng.
There was no other way. If Zhang Tiannan were to find someone, it would be difficult to explain the situation clearly.
Si Zheng sighed, “Let me go instead.”
“I also think that’s the way to go.” agreed Qin Feng.
Zhang Tiannan opened his mouth but hesitated, unable to speak.
