"Dean..." Kong Chuan was startled at his words.
If he went to battle recklessly, there would be no one left to protect Lin Shen.
Should a Nirvana Being take the opportunity to kill Lin Shen, he would likely be in danger.
"This is an order," Lin Shen said.
"Yes," Kong Chuan's gaze sharpened as he fixated on Bede, knowing he had to end the battle quickly to prevent soone from taking the chance to kill Lin Shen.
Kong Chuan leapt into the air, charging at Bede like a blue peacock.
Bede, with his blood-red pupils slightly stirring, fired his Pet Gun again, astonishingly releasing three Nirvana Level pets.
"Tian Xin, let's hide in the warehouse for now, hoping your aunt can make it back in ti," Lin Shen turned and said to Tian Xin.
"Okay," Tian Xin nodded, accepting the plan. With the situation unclear and an unknown number of Hybrid Night Ghosts lurking in the dark, he dared not go out and fight.
Fortunately, the material used to build the Paradise Palace was extrely durable, and even Ascenders would have a hard ti damaging it, let alone Nirvana Beings who would need to exert so effort to destroy it.
The warehouse beneath Paradise Palace was even more secure, a place difficult for a Nirvana Being to breach in a short span of ti. It was the only option for shelter now.
Everyone, led by Tian Xin, quickly left the room and headed towards the warehouse.
Your next journey awaits at empire
Outside, the Night Ghosts' pets had reached the front, incessantly battering the doors and windows, enclosing the entire Paradise Palace with various pets.
Shortly after they left the room, a Life Base shattered the window, and an Ascension Pet rushed in.
The group hurried towards the warehouse as the sound of more windows breaking echoed behind them.
Fortunately, Tian Xun did not allow ordinary people to stay overnight in Paradise Palace; it was only their few who resided within.
The group hastened all the way to the underground warehouse.
Tian Xin took out the keys and opened the warehouse door, ushering everyone inside quickly.
As Wei Wufu, who was last, entered, Tian Xin was about to close the door when he suddenly felt a huge force slamming against it.
Tian Xin was sent flying by the impact, crashing into Wei Wufu.
Wei Wufu caught Tian Xin with both hands, and like a spinning top, whirled countless tis to dissipate the terrifying force from Tian Xin.
The warehouse door was wide open, and a familiar figure stepped in first.
"The old butler... You're a Night Ghost too..." Everyone saw the newcor's face clearly—it was none other than the always courteous old butler responsible for looking after their daily needs.
Although the old butler was not allowed to stay overnight in Paradise Palace, he had the keys to its doors. He was always the last to leave the Palace, as well as the first one to arrive each day.
Had his pupils not been tinged with red, it would have been very hard to imagine that such a gentlemanly old butler was also a Night Ghost.
"There's a lot more that you can't imagine," a woman said, erging from behind the old butler.
She was dressed in white, with long, straight, black hair, a delicate face, and well-defined features—she would have been considered beautiful if not for her blood-red eyes.
"Ye Kong?" Lin Shen asked, looking at her.
"You actually know my na?" Ye Kong's face changed slightly.
"Not only do I know your na, but I also know that you have two sisters nad Ye Yue and Ye Yun. Did they not co?" Lin Shen said to Ye Kong indifferently.
Ye Kong fixed her gaze on Lin Shen, and after a long while, she sneered coldly, "You're trying to scare , but it's useless. Today, all of you will certainly beco vassals of my clan of Night Ghosts."
"From what you're saying, it seems you don't want to kill us?" Lin Shen asked.
"Killing you brings no benefit to us. Besides, you're the Dean of the Celestial Master Institute. If you don't return, it will only cause more trouble for us," Ye Kong said as she stepped toward Lin Shen. Her red lips parted slightly, and her ghostly, elusive singing voice drifted from her lips.
Everyone suddenly felt their minds go fuzzy, as if they were drunk.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
Wei Wufu struck his wooden fish, imdiately clearing the minds of the people by quite a bit.
Ye Kong was unfazed and continued to approach Lin Shen and the others, her ghostly singing voice never stopping.
As she ca closer, the sound of Wei Wufu's wooden fish seed to lose its effect, and everyone felt their clarity slipping away, as if they were so sleepy that they could barely keep their eyes open.
"Screw this," Tian Xin cursed, trying to take action, but she couldn't even lift her arm.
It was like when soone is extrely tired, and no matter how much they try to wake themselves up, their body simply won't move.
"Back off, or I'll kill her," Lin Shen's adaptability was clearly much stronger than Tian Xin's - the Evolution Theory ran wildly within his body.
He had one hand on the acupoint-constricted Ye Xing and held the Light Sword transford from the Inheritance Fan against Ye Xing's neck.
"Oh? You can actually resist my lullaby. You indeed are different. No wonder people like Tian Xun fancy you, and even a tyrant like the Heavenly Emperor would choose you for the Dean position of the Celestial Master Institute," Ye Kong stopped singing and said with interest as she looked at Lin Shen.
"Glad you know that," said Lin Shen coldly.
"I'm quite satisfied with you. Once you beco a Hybrid Night Ghost, you should be the most outstanding amongst our clan," Ye Kong said with a smile. However, her smile was too sinister to be likable.
"Why should I beco a Hybrid Night Ghost?" Lin Shen asked, pretending to be curious.
"There's no use in buying ti. We've lured Tian Xun to the Giant God Mausoleum, and she's trapped inside and can't get out for a while. No one can save you," Ye Kong saw through Lin Shen's thoughts and said indifferently.
"Whether she cos back or not, I don't believe you'd disregard Ye Xing's life," Lin Shen said, expressionless.
"These child's play threats are too childish," Ye Kong's blood-red eyes swept over the faces of Lin Shen and the others, finally resting on Lin Miao's face. She said lightly, "You can kill Ye Xing if you like. If you do that, everyone here except for you will die, including your sister. If you release Ye Xing, I promise you, I won't harm any of them. We'll just turn them into Night Ghosts.
The choice of life or death is yours. If you're going to kill, then do it now."
After speaking, Ye Kong gave orders to the old butler beside her, "Kill them all, leaving only Tian alive will be enough."
"As you command." The old butler's body ignited with a strange glow, clearly being of the Nirvana Level.
"Why didn't anyone tell that this old butler was also a Nirvana Being?" Lin Shen asked Tian Xin.
"How should I know what you don't know?" Tian Xin summoned the despairing Heartless Angel, already preparing to fight to the death.
"Life and death lie in a mont of your thought. This is your last chance," Ye Kong said coldly as she watched Lin Shen.
"Keep the chance for yourself," a chilly voice rose within the warehouse.
