C225 (1/2)
Sleepwalking was originally a sign of soul leaving the body, but it was only a semi-detached state. If one was suddenly disturbed by external forces, it was very possible that the soul would be scared out of the body. Once the soul left the body, it would only be a dead end.
Even though I was worried about Li Yadong's comfort, I held my breath, bent over, and tiptoed as I pursued the past.
It was a very deep alley, with lots of courtyards on both sides. I felt that Li Yadong had probably entered one of the courtyards.
As I silently walked forward, I pricked up my ears to listen attentively. I hoped that Li Yadong would be able to make some sounds and be discovered by me.
When I reached the entrance of a certain courtyard in the middle of Hu Tong's mouth, I suddenly heard a voice that came from a woman.
After hearing the commotion, I immediately stopped and hid in a remote corner to listen carefully.
”Brother Dong …” You're finally here... ”Heehee …”
The voice was filled with a charming aura. Even though it sounded like the voice of a beautiful woman, at this moment, coupled with the eerie atmosphere, it made me shudder.
Could it really be a female ghost that caused trouble for Li Yadong?
The woman stopped talking after that, and then there was a flurry of noise, and I didn't know what was going on inside.
At that moment, I held my breath and withdrew all of my aura. I started to slowly move my body in the direction of the entrance. I wanted to make sure that I didn't make any sounds.
Very soon, I could see the back of a person from the side. That person was Li Yadong. There was a woman opposite him. Due to the darkness of the night, I couldn't see her face clearly.
At that moment, I took out two thousand year camphor tree leaves and dripped two drops of tears onto my eyelids. After chanting an incantation, I opened my eyes and looked at the lady.
I want to see if that woman is a spirit or not. After opening the Heaven's Eyes, I can tell with a single glance. If it's an ordinary ghost, it can be determined with the naked eye.
Furthermore, when I open the Heaven's Eyes, I can see at night. Even if that woman isn't a spirit body, I can still use the Heaven's Eyes to see her face.
Very quickly, the Heaven's Eyes were opened and everything around us became clear. At the same time, I could clearly see the woman standing in front of Li Yadong.
With just a glance, I could tell that this woman definitely wasn't a spirit body, because there weren't any traces of a spirit body on her body. Just like what Li Yadong had told me before, this woman was truly beautiful, with long hair like a waterfall, a pure white complexion, a oval face, a pair of large, alluring eyes, cherry lips, and a tall figure.
Maybe it was because the woman had been watching Li Yadong, so she didn't notice that I was staring at her.
However, I didn't stare at her for too long. Since I was able to cultivate something as evil as the Yin Swallowing Worm, it proves that this woman is not simple. She is at least a cultivator, and her perception is very strong.
