Chapter 56 - 56 22 You never willingly listen to elder sister's words_3

56: Chapter 22 “You never willingly listen to elder sister’s words…”_3 56: Chapter 22 “You never willingly listen to elder sister’s words…”_3 ——Because he had developed doubts about the current situation.

When exactly did it begin?

The cause of the “ghost house transformation” was the Forbidden Object—the Blood Contract Medium, which had not yet been refined and was brought to Xiaokang Building by the Curse Forbidden Master, Yu Wentao.

But the crucial question was, where did Yu Wentao himself go?

He initially thought Yu Wentao left later due to unforeseen circumstances.

But unexpectedly, the Core Ghost he encountered later, judging by Kong Yulin’s reaction, was Yu Wentao himself.

In other words, it was very likely that he died in Xiaokang Building and was transformed into a ghost after the yin energy gathered.

He hadn’t been able to think about these things during the fight, but now that the dust had settled, he could no longer ignore these irrationalities…

Cen Dongsheng rubbed his temples.

Moreover, today he distinctly felt that a Curse Forbidden Master had entered this Xiaokang Building.

Cen Dongsheng was not skilled at detecting perceptions; he could feel it purely because the other party had already taken action, but after asking around, none of the neighbors had witnessed any unusual phenomena…

He felt he couldn’t just leave it be.

…

Stepping out of Sister Zhi Zhen’s house, Cen Dongsheng saw that the sky had already darkened.

The night fell heavily, and the silent twilight surged from all directions.

The cicadas chirped in waves, and the mildly intoxicated evening breeze caressed the face, intoxicating.

He breathed the fresh air for a while and then proceeded along the corridor.

As he was about to pass a certain room, he looked up at the door plate, “310.”

It seemed familiar.

The last time he passed by, something happened…

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the room door was pushed open.

The person who came out was an acquaintance.

Kong Yulin was laboriously dragging a suitcase out, just in time to meet his gaze.

“You are really here.”

Not willing to give up that Forbidden Object?

Cen Dongsheng felt a stir in his heart, but his body’s instinctive reaction was even quicker; True Qi circulated throughout his body, already ready for battle.

Although not fully recovered yet, he had enough strength to smash someone’s head with his fists, and that was enough.

“You…”

When Kong Yulin saw him, the indifferent expression on her face also showed a slightly surprised look.

For some reason, her instinctive reaction was to turn her head and look behind her.

Cen Dongsheng, without hesitation, lifted his foot and kicked the suitcase she was guarding.

“What exactly did you bring here?

This—”

Caught off guard, Kong Yulin dodged backward, the suitcase kicked over and crashing heavily to the ground.

The suitcase contained no secret weapon but another acquaintance.

It was a truly “well-ripened” kind.

“…”

Cen Dongsheng stood silently, watching the corner of a plastic bag slide out from the suitcase.

Wrapped inside was a body, with bluish-white skin and charred carbonized parts visible everywhere.

The head portion wrapped inside was already burnt beyond recognition, while the remaining limbs showed signs of having been cut, all stuffed into a semi-transparent body bag.

This scene was indeed somewhat horrific.

“You…”

Cen Dongsheng squinted his eyes.

“Came here specifically to destroy the evidence of the body?”

Kong Yulin retracted her hand, standing by the door, responding to his question in silence.

“…Creaaak.”

Under Cen Dongsheng’s scrutiny, room 316’s door was pushed open from the inside.

A face with a charming smile peeked out from behind—

It was someone he had already anticipated in his heart, but when he truly saw her, he couldn’t help but sigh.

…

“You always refuse to obediently listen to your elder sister, Dongsheng.”

Sister Zhi Zhen stepped into the twilight with her hands clasped behind her back, walking lightly and gazing at him with a beaming smile.

“Those overly perceptive get by tough at times.

Yet, if the one I chose was a fool, it would also be troublesome…”

“In this world, there really are no perfect solutions to everything.”
