Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

Chapter 2693 The Mad City Lord's Love-Hate Relationship 15

Jin Chen entered the side room of the side hall.

Jin Chen took a few steps closer, looked down at Liu Zhou on the ground, and raised a slight sneer in his narrow eyes, "Want to live?"

Liu Zhou, as if grasping at a straw, nodded frantically, tears streaming down his face. "I want to! I want to! Please, sir, save me! Please save me!"

"If you want to live, do exactly as I say, word for word."

Jin Chen said, "I will have Gu Baibai take you to a safe corner of the outer city. Once you get there, someone will meet you."

"Remember, no matter what strange sights you see or what terrifying sounds you hear along the way, do not turn around or respond."

"Keep running towards the direction with the faint light, which looks most like an ordinary inn. The person who will meet you will have a gray wooden tag around their waist, named Chu Jiushan."

Liu Zhou listened in a daze, his heart pounding, but he still tried his best to memorize every word and nodded repeatedly.

"I...I remember! There's light, like an inn, look for the gray wooden sign, look for Chu Jiushan!"

Jin Chen then took out the glass bead again and contacted Chu Jiushan and the other two in the outer city.

The glass beaded light screen lit up, and Chu Jiushan immediately came over.

"Senior brother! Are you alright? We just heard that the City Lord's protector captured a human?"

"It's alright." Jin Chen said succinctly, "I'll escort him out of the city lord's mansion. You go and meet him, and make sure he gets away safely."

Chu Jiushan nodded quickly, "Okay! Don't worry, Senior Brother!"

Zang Huai'an, who was standing to the side, asked in a deep voice, "Brother Jin, when... can we leave this hellish place?"

Liu Shuoyue also cast an inquiring glance at her.

Jin Chen pondered for a moment, calculating the time, "If my prediction is correct, we should have a chance to leave around tomorrow. You all first make sure to meet the people, find a safe place to hide, and wait for my news. Remember, do not act rashly, especially..."

His gaze swept over Chu Jiushan's eager face. "Keep an eye on him."

Chu Jiushan grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Senior brother! I'm not a three-year-old child, I won't run around like that..."

The observant Liu Shuoyue noticed the marks on Jin Chen's earlobe and the side of his neck, but they didn't look like the marks from a fight.

She thought for a moment, then gasped and asked with concern, "Brother Jin, what happened to your ears and neck?"

Jin Chenchen raised her hand and rubbed her knuckles against the red marks. "It's nothing. I was just bitten a few times by a city lord with a bad temper."

With just one sentence, the three humans opposite were frozen in place, dumbfounded.

Chu Jiushan clutched his head with both hands, screaming, "Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!"

"Senior brother! You've been humiliated by that city lord!"

Jin Chen: "..." What are you saying?

Jin Chen ended the conversation, saying, "Just do what you're supposed to do and wait for my message."

He put away the glass bead, turned to Liu Zhou who looked like he'd just stumbled upon some juicy gossip, and to Gu Baibai who had just returned, and said, "Go."

Gu Baibai, who had already betrayed the city and become very loyal, once again carried Liu Zhou on his back and, familiar with the way, slipped out of the city lord's mansion along the shadows of the wall.

-

night.

The moon, hanging in the deep sky, shone with a different kind of radiance than the moon in the mortal world.

Jin Chen wasn't quite used to the eerie, cold moonlight of the ghost town at night, so she went to bed early.

The skeleton stood guard outside the hall, its empty eye sockets staring at the cold moon, its finger bones counting.

The seven-day period is approaching.

It would occasionally peek into the inner hall to glance at Jin Chen on the bed.

In its understanding, no ghost would be happy to know that it was about to be annihilated and perish forever.

But it saw that Jin Chen was lying quietly with his eyes closed, and he didn't seem worried at all.

In the space of consciousness, Jin Chen pulled Ling Gun Gun to watch a horror movie.

[Host! Turn it off now!] Zero Rolling Roll curled up into a fur ball, its two little paws tightly covering its eyes, yet it couldn't help but peek through its fingers, which scared the fur on its body so much that it stood on end.

This is a ghost town; the creatures roaming outside are real! Why are you watching these movies to scare me?!

This is practically polluting the treasure database of the Pixiu!

A Chinese horror film is playing in the movie theater.

Jin Chen: [Did you understand?]

Ling Gungun sobbed softly, yet remained defiant: "I was just kidding! I didn't even watch it! The boss said that what you're afraid of doesn't have to be faced; I can choose to close my eyes!"

Jinchen: [……]

[Zero Egg: This world has ghosts, but no underworld.]

Ling Gun Gun raised its little head blankly, blinked its beady eyes, and said, "Huh? Uh...right."

Zero Rolling belatedly realized, "The laws of this world are so foolish; the order is incomplete."

Jin Chen's eyes flickered slightly.

He didn't think that Heaven was stupid. The ghost prison under the green altar was just like the underworld, so Yin Chaosheng would be restricted in it.

[I'm not watching anymore!] Zero Rolling felt like he'd been granted a pardon, cheering, [The Supreme God is here! I'm outta here!]

Jin Chen then opened her eyes.

Beside the bed, the light gauze curtains fluttered silently without any wind.

The red figure stood there silently, surrounded by a chilling aura. Under the pale moonlight, the crimson of her clothes revealed a breathtakingly beautiful hue.

Yin Chaosheng stood there, his gaze fixed on Jin Chen's face, his expression unreadable.

Jin Chen propped himself up, his dark hair flowing freely, making his face appear even more handsome in the dim light.

He reached out his hand toward the red figure, palm up, a smile playing on his lips.

"The night is long, my lord, please come into my arms."

The candles in the side hall had all been extinguished. Yin Chaosheng always acted as he pleased and killed at will, but he still couldn't understand why, even though he was so angry at this unruly ghost that he wanted to tear it to pieces immediately, he always tolerated its repeated offenses and transgressions at the last moment.

Was it because of this rare and pleasing appearance, or because of that reckless attitude that repeatedly stirred his dormant emotions?

The ghostly figure moved slightly, slowly stepping forward. Its pale, cold fingertips touched Jin Chen's palm, its crimson robe trailing on the ground, all without a sound.

Jin Chen tightened his arms, holding the cold yet beautiful body firmly in his embrace.

As soon as Yin Chaosheng nestled into his arms, Jin Chen's kiss landed on his lips.

Yin Chaosheng was overwhelmed by the surging torrent of sensations, and only when the long and deep kiss finally stopped did he catch his breath, resting his head on Jin Chen's shoulder, slightly lost in thought.

When he was bullied badly, this unpredictable ghost king would always show a vulnerable state that was completely different from his usual fierce and menacing demeanor.

Jin Chen's heart softened. She still had one hand around his waist, while raising the other hand and reaching into Yin Chaosheng's smooth, long hair to gently stroke it.

The moonlight shifted, faintly illuminating Jin Chen's brow.

The marks of the ghost flower there seem to show signs of blooming and unfolding at the edges of the petals.

This is a sign that the physical body in the mortal realm is about to awaken, and the soul is being drawn away, about to leave the ghost city.

However, the night was hazy, and the hickeys were damp.

Lost in his passion, Yin Chaosheng didn't notice. He lowered his head, seemingly dissatisfied with his previous passivity, or perhaps infatuated, and stubbornly moved closer to Jin Chen's neck, using his sharp teeth to pierce her warm skin once more.
