Chapter 757: Soul Eater

“Where are you staying at now?” asked the owner.

“In that temple,” Mo Fan pointed at the dimly lighted temple on the mountain.

The owner’s eyes widened and he stopped cooking the squid.

“You…you’re staying there? The Yanming Temple?” the owner’s voice turned strange all of a sudden.

“Yeah,” Mo Fan realized something from the owner’s expression. He was also bothered by lots of questions, thus he quickly asked, ‘Is there something strange about the temple?”

“Oh, oh, nothing, but I suggest you not to stay in the temple. It’s not a good place. It was once a good temple, but not anymore,” said the owner.

She blinked like a kitten and said with a soothing voice, “Tell us more about it, we just arrived here…” Jiang Shaoxu was now intrigued too.

The owner was indeed an old pervert. Even though he looked reluctant to spill the beans, he could not control his mouth at all. He lowered his voice and said, “Someone lost their soul there!”

“Lost their soul?” Mo Fan opened his eyes wide.

“In the past, the Yanming Temple was known for blessing people’s marriages. Even the young folk from other cities would come here just to pray in the temple. However, there was a young man who went to the temple and fainted for no reason. He never woke up since then, none of the Healing Spells worked… some old folks said that he had lost his soul, his body had turned into an empty shell,” said the owner.

Mo Fan’s jaw dropped.

Jiang Shaoxu completely treated it as a story. She always enjoyed listening to the gossip from the owners of izakayas in Japan.

“A piece of advice, just pretend you didn’t see anything even if you do if you really want to stay in the temple…” the owner lowered his voice further.

“What if we don’t?” asked Mo Fan. Somehow, Mo Fan believed in the owner’s words.

“That’s going to bring you nothing but trouble, you’ll lose your soul!” said the owner.

“Hehehe, I know how to steal someone’s soul too, check this out…muacks,” Jiang Shaoxu gave a passerby a fly kiss and blinked her eyes.

The passerby was a little drunk, and he staggered after getting teased by Jiang Shaoxu.

Jiang Shaoxu giggled when she saw the man trying to recover clumsily, showing her vixenish temperament.

“There’s nothing I can do if you don’t trust me.” The owner was too lazy to argue further.

Mo Fan wanted to listen more, yet the owner was reluctant to say any further. Even the squid was tasteless in his mouth…

After supper, the two went back to the stairs leading up to the temple. Mo Fan kept looking around him, worried that Miyata would show up again.

“Do you really believe the story? Stop being silly, you’re an adult now,” Jiang Shaoxu started laughing at Mo Fan.

“You didn’t want to believe me and the owner, just keep believing yourself then…” said Mo Fan indifferently.

Miyata did not appear. Mo Fan and Jiang Shaoxu went back to their room. The light was still on.

The people in the temple did not rely on electricity for lighting in order to save money. They normally used oil lamps. It was rather antique, yet when Mo Fan and Jiang Shaoxu came back, the electric lamp was still lit up. They could see blurry shadows moving back and forth inside the room.

“Did you find him?” asked Ai Jiangtu.

“No, he really went missing,” said Jiang Yu.

Mo Fan and Jiang Shaoxu went into the room as they were talking. The others immediately looked at them as if they had just seen a ghost.

“Who’s missing?” asked Mo Fan immediately.

“You two, we spent a long time looking for you. We thought you two were missing. Where did you go, we were almost worried to death,” said Jiang Yu.

“We went down the mountain to buy some stuff… by the way, is something wrong? Why is everyone so tense?” asked Jiang Shaoxu when she realized that something was not right.

The room fell silent, and no one answered her question.

Mo Fan looked around him and realized that someone was missing from the team.

Taking a second look, he immediately shivered in fear!

Zhao Manyan was missing!
