This was the voice of a woman, wavery and uncertain, giving off an extrely illusory sensation.
Was soone calling for help?
The sound that reached Li Qianfan's ears gave him a jolt, and he quickly scanned his surroundings, only to find everything peaceful, filled with students chattering and horsing around.
Could it be an illusion?
Li Qianfan frowned and shifted his attention back to his friends nearby; however, just as he turned his head, he heard the cry for help again.
"Save ... wuu wuu wuu, is there anyone there, save !"
This ti it seed even more real, and the voice was filled with despair.
Li Qianfan was certain soone was calling for help; he suddenly stood up and scanned the surroundings more intensely, it seed that the source of the plea was not human!
This action startled the people around him.
Ye Ling'er looked at Li Qianfan with eyes full of confusion. "Qianfan, what's wrong?"
Zhao Tianjie and Tang Long also looked equally bewildered.
"Nothing... there's nothing wrong!"
After calming his emotions, Li Qianfan sat down again on the playground.
Seeing Li Qianfan returning to normal, the others didn't dwell on it any further and resud their previous conversation.
However, Li Qianfan had no interest in the current topic, his mind entirely occupied with the cries for help. When the plaintive voices echoed in his ears again, he could no longer hold back. He imdiately stood up and said, "You guys keep talking, I just rembered sothing and need to step away for a bit."
"What are you going to do?"
Ye Ling'er asked.
Li Qianfan shifted his gaze and replied, "I'm going to find a friend. You guys continue chatting, I'll be right back."
Without giving them a chance to ask more, Li Qianfan quickly left.
"So mysterious, what's really going on!" Seeing Li Qianfan hurry away, Zhao Tianjie couldn't help but complain.
Ye Ling'er smiled wryly. "That's just how Li Qianfan is, always so secretive. Let's not worry about him and just talk amongst ourselves."
...
After splitting up from the others, Li Qianfan followed the direction of the rescue cries and finally arrived at a small grove.
"Whooo!" As he walked into the grove, a cold breeze caused Li Qianfan to shiver involuntarily. Feeling the eerie aura in the grove, his expression grew more serious. This area was clearly different from other parts of the school.
There weren't many students in the grove, just a few sophomore couples cuddling and embracing each other.
The freshly started sester had the reunion of couples deeply engrossed in their romance, effectively ignoring the single Li Qianfan.
"The cry for help was coming from here just now, why is there no sound now?"
Li Qianfan quietly muttered, slightly furrowing his brows.
"Is there anyone there, save ... save !"
Just as Li Qianfan was puzzled, the cry for help suddenly echoed again.
The next mont, Li Qianfan's gaze locked onto a dry well covered with a well lid. Without any hesitation, he stepped over to the side of the dry well. He activated the Dragon and Phoenix Mystery Skill, infusing True Qi into his voice, and inquired, "Is there soone inside the well asking for help?"
"Yes, yes, yes!!"
The person imdiately responded, her voice filled with surprise. She said, "You can actually hear my voice, please, find a way to save . I've been trapped in this dry well for a year now. I want to get out. Can you save ? If you can get out, you will be my savior. I would do anything for you!"
"Who exactly are you?"
Li Qianfan did not dare to open the well cover himself, after all, he did not know who was actually inside the dry well.
"I should say, I am not a person anymore, I am just a wisp of a soul!"
Soon, the voice inside the dry well sounded again. She continued, "Humans have three souls and seven spirits; I am just one of the souls. My body's na is Lin Manyue, and I am the Gang Leader of the Green Dragon Gang in Taoyuan County. I don't know if you have heard of !"
Lin Manyue?
The Gang Leader of the Green Dragon Gang.
Upon hearing this identity, Li Qianfan was struck as if by lightning, standing there stunned. Recently, due to Lin Manyue's disappearance, the Green Dragon Gang had fallen into chaos, and her daughter, Hong Jiui, was continuously searching for Lin Manyue. To his shock, one of her souls was trapped in this dry well.
Where is Lin Manyue now?
Why was one of her souls trapped in a dry well?
"Are you... are you still there?"
Soon, Lin Manyue's voice resonated from the dry well once again, filled with concern.
"I haven't left; I am just thinking about so things."
Li Qianfan quickly replied.
"Can you save ?" asked Lin Manyue. "Senior, since you can hear the voice of a soul, you must not be an ordinary person. As long as you rescue from this dry well, I will serve you as if I were your ox and horse in the future!"
"Hold on a mont!"
Now that he had learned of her true identity, Li Qianfan hesitated no longer. He looked around and, noticing that no one was paying attention to him, he secretly channeled the Dragon and Phoenix Mystery Skill. With a palm strike, he hit the stone lid of the dry well. Accompanied by a 'crack' sound, the lid instantly showed web-like cracks and shattered into pieces.
The next mont, Li Qianfan leaped into the dry well.
The well was exceptionally dark, described perfectly by the phrase 'so dark you cannot see your hand in front of your face.'
Li Qianfan imdiately released his spiritual power, and the surroundings within three ters of his body were all mapped into his brain. Since he could not see beyond three ters, he did not know how large the dry well truly was, but he knew that the well contained a lot of stench-emitting trash.
"Benefactor, I am here!"
At that mont, Lin Manyue's voice echoed again.
Guided by the sound, Li Qianfan quickly figured out the direction and walked forward. After about seven or eight ters, he was suddenly stunned by the scene before him.
In front of him was an enormous pillar!
Tied to the pillar was a woman wearing white clothes, her hair disheveled, covering her face completely and obscuring her appearance; however, one could tell she was shapely, roughly 1.7 ters tall, with her white clothing festooned with black talismans, all covered in complex and obscure characters.
Four chains, like pythons, coiled around the pillar, locking the woman firmly in place.
"To trap a soul in such a way, what a cruel thod!"
Although Li Qianfan could not understand the characters, he recognized the black talismans as a thod used by the Evil Cultivation Sect, as recorded in the Heaven's Treasure Record.
"Benefactor, save !"
Upon finishing her plea, Lin Manyue slowly lifted her head, revealing her face fully exposed to Li Qianfan's eyes.
Upon seeing her face, Li Qianfan abruptly froze, involuntarily gasping in cold air. Continue your saga on My Virtual Library Empire
Scars!!
Her face was covered with dense scars, like a spider's web over her face!
