Chapter 256 - 173 Ghost City_2
At this moment, the shadow demon that was exploring outside had made a new discovery.
In one of the alleys, there was a hint of living human presence. A few fierce ghosts nearby caught the scent and started heading in that direction.
In the alley, a few university students were running for their lives, their faces ashen and tears streaming down from fear.
They had come to Xinyue for a weekend trip, not expecting to run into such a tragic event. Had they not been quick to react and run away, they would have already been captured and devoured alive by the numerous fierce ghosts.
However, in this ghost-infested market, they could escape once but not forever.
At the end of the alley, an elder carrying a lantern was slowly approaching. The elder was dressed in burial clothes, exuding a chilly aura, with the stench of a corpse wafting over from a distance.
The students immediately stopped and turned around to run back, but a few eerie and cold ghosts had already appeared behind them.
Everyone’s face instantly went pale as death. They were trapped, unable to escape in any direction!
Among them, a muscular man in a vest gritted his teeth: "There’s only one elder in burial clothes. If we charge at him directly, some of us might be able to run... as long as some can escape."
Just as he finished speaking, the ghosts behind them halted and surprisingly stopped advancing. They stared at the elder in burial clothes from a distance with a trace of fear on their expressionless faces and began to back away slowly.
