Chapter 278 - 278 270 Ghost Knocking on the Door_1

278: Chapter 270: Ghost Knocking on the Door_1 278: Chapter 270: Ghost Knocking on the Door_1 Shadow soldiers passed through, ghostly figures loomed in the distance, the Ghost Night has finally arrived as expected.

At this moment, everyone in the Great Hall became solemn.

This uncanny scene was unseen before, plunging the entire tribe into chaos.

A ghost?

Everyone was certain that it wasn’t the Gu Yuan Tribe members outside in the street.

At this time, they should have already hidden in their stone houses under Xiao Chen’s command, tightly shutting their doors and staying inside.

Furthermore, many War Soldiers were on guard around them.

This was a terrifying scene.

Through the cracks of the door and windows, they could see figures moving about in waves in the street outside.

These figures were male, female, old and young, currently roaming within the Gu Yuan Tribe’s territory.

At this moment, inside the Blue Stone Houses surrounding the Tribe’s Stone Tower, all the tribe members couldn’t keep themselves from trembling in fear, their hearts filled with dread.

The sound from outside sent chills down their spine.

Eventually, the shadow energy outside accumulated to a certain density and seeped through the cracks in the doors and windows.

This shadow energy was cold, tainted with evil, seemingly permeating everything in its path, even into the marrow of a person’s bones.

For some robust tribesmen, it might not mean much, but within the tribe, there were many elderly, frail, sick, and weak women and children.

They were physically weak or lacked cultivation; this shadow energy entering their bodies could cause their bones and blood marrow to hurt even more.

Soon, a clearly audible crunching sound echoed in the streets.

It was the sound of tearing and gnawing.

Through the gaps in the doors and windows, one could see numerous ghost shadows pouncing on the wind-dried meat of savage beasts hanging beneath the Blue Stone Houses.

In a short while, a piece of beast meat as large as a stone basin disappeared.

The surroundings were becoming increasingly cold, as if it were the depths of winter.

Time passed slowly, the waiting felt incredibly long.

In the Great Hall, under Xiao Chen’s signal, all the Blood Refining Realm Warriors unblinkingly gazed outside the door, not daring to make any move.

Xiao Chen knew this was just the beginning.

The real fierce ghosts hadn’t arrived yet.

At this point, they couldn’t afford to panic.

The Ghost Tribe was also waiting, waiting for Xiao Chen to show himself!

Outside the Tribe, a thick, eerie black mist was swirling, filled with coldness and evil.

Behind the black mist, ten figures slowly emerged, their aura heavy.

The blood energy emitted by each figure could easily match a human Blood Refining Realm Warrior.

Suddenly, a pair of gloomy lights shot out from the thick darkness of the black mist.

An icy, greedy voice rang out, whether it was male or female was unclear.

“The people of this Tribe were scared out of their wits by us just two days ago.

Today, when the children of our Ghost Tribe descend again, they will undoubtedly feast to their heart’s content.

The vital energy in the blood of the Humans, this vigorous life force is the favourite of our Tribe’s children!”

“The Human Tribes are fond of infighting indeed.

The Human Tribes within these territories are not united.

After all, Giant Stone Valley is the heartland of the Human territories.

If it weren’t for better hiding and conserving strength, how could we have been oppressed by the Humans of the Blackwood Tribe?”

“Hehe!

What our leader says is true.

In the remote lands where we’ve been running around in the past few years, those damn Humans have treated our great Ghost Tribe like fattened livestock.

Whenever we accumulate some strength, our scattered Ghost Tribe Warriors are always rounded up and slaughtered by them.

This time, of course, we have to accumulate strength, wipe out this small Human Tribe in front of us, and when we have enough strength, we will slaughter the Blackwood Tribe to avenge our Tribe members who lost their lives over the years!”

The Gu Yuan Tribe was already surrounded by endless darkness.

From the outside, the entire Tribe looked deathly still.

The flames that were initially lit within the Tribe on the city walls had somehow been extinguished.

Ghostly figures flitted about within the Tribe.

From afar, it seemed just like a Dead Land.

The black fog rolled in waves, suddenly swelling even larger as though it was a ball of thick ink.

The evil aura became even more intense as a chilling, dismal voice rang out again.

“My strength has already reached the Ghost General Peak.

Once I devour the flesh and soul of the Blood Refining Realm Warriors of this Tribe, my Ghost Flame will stabilise completely.

I will then be able to challenge the Ghost Marshal.

When that happens, the old and new grudges against the Blackwood Tribe, I will settle them all!”

Within the darkness, dozens of ghastly green flames flickered slowly as if the giant city in front of them was already kneeling at their feet, allowing them to behave arbitrarily.

Inside the Tribe.

The condensed shadow energy became thicker.

In just an hour, the shadow energy had surged several times.

The children and women in the stone houses had already turned pale, their lips purplish.

Some Tribe members even showed signs of fainting.

In a Blue Stone Courtyard on the outskirts of the Tribe’s Stone Tower, there were over fifty Tribe members, along with a centurion and ten soldiers for protection in a stone house.

Among these fifty Tribe members, there were three children who were already looking pale.

Their mothers were holding them tightly in their arms, but they could hardly prevent the cold from seeping in.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

At this moment, hurried knocking sounded from the door.

Everyone inside the stone house tensed up immediately.

The women holding their children had veins popping on their hands.

“Uncle Lu, Uncle Lu, open the door quickly!

My mother is possessed by a ghost.

Please save her!”

A familiar child’s voice, filled with fear and even some trembling, made everyone in the stone house shudder.

Hu Wa!

That was Hu Wa’s voice.

His mother was possessed by a ghost!

The Uncle Lu that Hu Wa was calling out to was the Centurion in the stone house.

Hearing this, he shouted angrily, “Damn it!

Hu Wa, didn’t the tribe leader order everyone to stay in the stone houses and not to go outside?

How can you run out at this time?

Do you want to die?”

This Centurion surnamed Lu became somewhat anxious.

The child outside was the orphan of his fallen brethren.

If anything went wrong, how would he face his brother who had died on the battlefield?

“Wait, I’m coming.

With Centurion Limu’s protection, how could your mother be possessed by a ghost inside the stone house?”

After saying this, the Centurion surnamed Lu immediately got up and headed towards the stone door, but at the next moment, a small arm tightly grabbed his beast robe, and a tender voice sounded.

“Uncle Lu, don’t Hu Wa and his mother stay in the west stone house?”

Uncle Lu was taken aback and then quickly realized.

Before the arrival of the Ghost Night, Hu Wa and his mother had been escorted personally by him to a stone house west of the Stone Tower, which was next to the Tribe’s Stone Tower.

Even if they had been possessed by ghosts, they should not have come to this distant place for help, let alone a young child crossing many ghostly figures.

So, who’s outside the door…?

Ghosts are knocking on the door during Ghost Night!
