Despite her injuries, Yumeng moved super-fast and managed to grab hold of the soul on Jiang Ning's back.
Bam!
She then slammed her hands together, crushing the soul in between her palms.
The chilling aura disappeared along with the soul.
As using Guidance while injured took a huge toll on Yumeng's body, she went pale and began coughing violently immediately after.
“Are you okay? What was that thing?” Peter Pan asked.
He didn't see anything, but he could feel that there was something there. Had Yumeng not gotten rid of it, that soul would've possessed Jiang Ning's body.
Jiang Ning, too, found it hard to believe that such a strange entity existed.
“It was a soul. You know, like those that linger around and haunt places? They can easily evoke and amplify negative emotions such as hatred and anger when they pass through your body,” Yumeng replied after taking a moment to catch her breath.
I don't know if this is purely coincidental, or if something really serious is going on. Regardless, I just can't help but have a bad feeling about all this. Greedy Wolf can't be that crazy, can he? Still, why did he bring me to that massive grave then? How did that place even come to be?
With that in mind, Yumengturned toward Jiang Ning as she continued, “I can't use Guidance for long at the moment. Please be careful, you guys. More of those souls could show up here.”
She had used up a huge amount of energy helping Greedy Wolf absorb those souls back then. That, combined with the severe injuries inflicted by Greedy Wolf, left her in such a weakened state that she could die from exhaustion if she used Guidance again.
Jiang Ning and Peter Pan exchanged glances and went on high alert after hearing that.
The worst type of enemy is the type you can't see nor feel. All we can do is try our best to defend against them by instinct alone.
“I'll keep Gou and the others safe,” Peter Pan said.
He then stood in front of Jiang Yao and scanned their surroundings for any sign of unusual activities.
