Chapter 838: Animals Sucked Dry

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chang Qing really didn’t want to see that woman, Shen Rongyin, win over Old Chi’s daughter. If Shen Rongyin really married Old Chi like she wanted, what Chang Qing was most worried about was the Chi family following in the footsteps of Old Ren’s family.

However, she didn’t go overboard with her words. Sometimes, young people might not be willing to listen to too much.

The more Chi Shuyan interacted with the Wei family, the better she liked them.

Chang Qing wanted to take Old Chi’s daughter to her house, but Chi Shuyan planned to leave the military district and take a look around. However, she naturally couldn’t let Auntie Chang know about this, or the woman definitely wouldn’t let her go. Chi Shuyan wanted to go out and see what the vampire bites were about!

Chi Shuyan said that she had something on at home, so Chang Qing could only give up. However, she told Chi Shuyan to come for dinner later with Old Chi.

Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to refuse, Chang Qing immediately said, “Yan Yan, don’t stand on ceremony with Aunt Chang. Your dad and I have known each other for decades. We’re closer than family. Also, if you need anything, come and find me, or look for your Brother Wei Ting. If there’s something you need, you can just let him know!”

Chi Shuyan couldn’t pour water on Aunt Chang’s enthusiasm, and immediately nodded. “Got it, Aunt Chang!”

After Auntie Chang left, Chi Shuyan immediately left the military district. Just as she reached the exit, however, the soldiers on duty saw that the young lady was going out alone, and their faces turned grave.

When she gave her father’s name, the guards were even more unwilling to let her go out alone, and said that she couldn’t go unless it was with Captain Chi.

He had to accompany her himself or she had to follow a military car out. Otherwise, she couldn’t go out alone.

Chi Shuyan was helpless. She could only hide in an unnoticed corner and take out an Invisibility Talisman before she left the military district.

The Invisibility Talisman had a time limit. She walked for a while before its effect disappeared 15 minutes later. On the road, Chi Shuyan had been thinking about using a Gale Talisman to get to the nearby village or county town.

This Gale Talisman was a new talisman she had drawn recently. It was very convenient for traveling like the wind, and it would only take Chi Shuyan a few minutes to reach the county town.

But thinking of what had happened recently, Chi Shuyan still decided to walk and see if there were any bodies on the way.

She didn’t see any human corpses on the way, but when she approached a forest, she smelled the thick stench of blood. When she entered, she saw a lot of animal carca.s.ses that had been sucked dry of blood and which were rotting. There was also a lot of dry blood on the ground around them, which was a ghastly sight.

Chi Shuyan stared at the carca.s.ses which had yet to rot, and found what looked like human bite marks on them.

Chi Shuyan was lost in thought. After walking for a long while in the forest and seeing that there were no more carca.s.ses, Chi Shuyan could only walk back to the main road, and was prepared to enter the nearby county town.

At that moment, there was a loud shout behind her. “Sister! Shuyan! Sister Shuyan!”

Chi Shuyan turned around and met Wei Ting’s gaze. D*mn, what a coincidence.

Soon, the military car pulled up beside her. Wei Ting jumped out of the car and stared at Chi Shuyan with a taut and astonished expression for a long while before he said, “Sister, why are you here? Are you looking for Uncle Chi?”

Chi Shuyan was helpless under Wei Ting’s bright gaze. She called out awkwardly, “Brother Wei, why are you here? Where are you going?”
