Chapter 758: The Strange Incident in the Temple

“By the way, why did it have to be Zhao Manyan? There are so many of us here; if there’s really a Soul Eater, why did it only target Zhao Manyan?” Mu Tingying asked, a question that was indeed worthy to be discussed.

Mo Fan’s lips twitched. It all made sense now. Should he spill the beans?

Mo Fan was totally dumbfounded!

First of all, why was he the only one that could see the girl? What exactly was the girl, to come and go without a trace? He was already an Advanced Magician; it did not make sense that he could not sense if she was alive.

Second, did he really curse Zhao Manyan?

Mo Fan did not forget that he had given Zhao Manyan’s name to the girl, and Zhao Manyan turned out to be the victim!

Did that mean the Soul Eater could only target someone after learning their name?

Everyone was at a loss. Even after Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan told them what they knew, the others chose not to believe it. They were more willing to explain Zhao Manyan’s condition was some kind of poison.

“Does anyone know where did Zhao Manyan went tonight?” asked Zu Jiming.

“He didn’t go anywhere, just the mountain behind the temple, the well, the corridor, the memorial temple…didn’t we already investigate those places?”

“We should split up, but don’t go anywhere alone. You few should ask the old monks about anything strange in this temple. As for everyone else, go check the places Zhao Manyan has been to, see if there’s any plant nearby, since it’s more likely that he’s poisoned…” ordered Ai Jiangtu.

The team immediately split into smaller groups. They had to find the reason for Zhao Manyan’s being poisoned as quickly as possible.

Nan Rongni also mentioned that since the Healing Element did not work, they had to focus on finding the truth behind it. Zhao Manyan had stayed in the temple’s vicinity. It would not be difficult to find some clues.

Mo Fan was allocated to a small group too. Their job was to find the young girl.

Jiang Shaoxu wanted to know the truth, too. She volunteered to join Mo Fan’s group. The others in the group were Jiang Yu and Mu Ningxue.

“What you said just then, was it real?” Mu Ningxue walked up to Mo Fan and asked sternly.

“Why would I joke about something like that? There’s something wrong about this temple. If you don’t believe me, I think you all should head down the mountain and ask the residents of the town about the temple,” said Mo Fan.

If only he could see the girl, it would be meaningless for the others to follow him. Perhaps the owner of the izakaya or the residents nearby would know some useful information.

“I’ll stay with you, it’s dangerous for you to be alone,” said Mu Ningxue.

“Mm, it’s better to stay in pairs. Jiang Yu, let’s go head down the mountain,” said Jiang Shaoxu. She knew now was not the time to fool around. She immediately followed Jiang Yu down the mountain to ask around about the temple.

Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue walked toward the stairs. Mo Fan remembered there was a diverging path covered by weeds in the middle of the stairs. Mo Fan had no idea where the path would lead to, yet he remembered it was where the girl had disappeared. He might find some clues there. Besides, the path was purposely sealed off!…
