CHAPTER 170: CHAPTER 170: CONVERGENCE

"Hahahaha, struck by lightning, hahahaha, who was so powerful?"

Xuan Shiyi’s voice echoed from inside.

"Xuan Shiyi!"

Lin Xiaoyan felt a deep sense of familiarity upon hearing Xuan Shiyi’s voice, and her heart was filled with safety.

"Xiao Yan?"

Xuan Shiyi was terribly surprised to hear Lin Xiaoyan’s voice.

When they saw each other, they were stunned.

The chief saw Xuan Shiyi’s disheveled appearance, barely clothed, and was shocked.

Then he looked at the others who were more or less injured, and his heart sank.

"It really is Xiao Yan!" Xuan Shiyi exclamied upon seeing Lin Xiaoyan.

"Chief, why have you come?"

Daoist An approached and asked.

The chief, seeing them, finally felt relieved.

"Our people searched every room but couldn’t find you, so we came looking for you with Xiao Lin."

The chief smiled wryly, "We just didn’t expect such an incident."

Daoist An looked behind them, noticing ghosts quickly retreating upon seeing their group.

He couldn’t help but admire them, "Quite brave of you all to walk through so many ghosts to get here."

"Were... were there many ghosts?" Xiao Bo glanced back the way they came from, it was empty.

Yet, he indeed felt something occasionally touch him along the way.

"Want to see?" Xuan Shiyi leaned over, smiling as he asked.

Upon hearing, Xiao Bo looked at Xuan Shiyi, "Can... can I see?"

Xuan Shiyi grinned, "Of course!"

He waved his hand before Xiao Bo’s eyes, and once Xiao Bo looked back, his face changed drastically, terrified.

"These... these... are all???"

Daoist An looked at the ghosts missing organs and sighed, "They’re all pitiable souls."

Xiao Bo withdrew his gaze, afraid to look more, regretting deeply; curiosity really does kill the cat!

"Can we have a look too?" the chief asked.

Upon hearing, Daoist An looked at the chief, "Those ghosts are missing parts, terrifying in appearance. They were all killed here; are you sure you want to see?"

The chief nodded seriously, "I’ve seen dismembered limbs on the battlefield; it’s okay. I just want to know how many people were harmed here."

Daoist An nodded, "Alright."

He wiped his hand over the chief’s eyes, then the eyes of the security guards and Lu Lan.

When he approached Lin Xiaoyan, she shook her head repeatedly.

"I don’t need it! I don’t want to see!!"

Daoist An paused, withdrew his hand.

Xuan Shiyi glanced at Lin Xiaoyan hiding behind him, "I was about to praise your courage, hahaha..."

Lin Xiaoyan looked at Xuan Er and Xuan Wu, quickly ran to them, squeezing between them.

"I’m scared to death; thankfully, I have the jade pendant Mr. Xuan Er gave me and a Five Thunder Talisman from Mr. Xuan Wu, otherwise today would have been the end."

She glanced at the group, the chief and Lu Lan were watching the ghosts, and she turned to Daoist An’s group, "A ghost is about to arrive."

So stop the nonsense and catch the ghost quickly, she wants to go back! She wants to go home!!!

Lin Xiaoyan screamed internally.

Xuan Er glanced at the jade pendant in Lin Xiaoyan’s hand, reminding her, "Wear the pendant well, no matter what happens later, protect yourself."

Lin Xiaoyan: "Okay!"

She immediately put the jade pendant back around her neck, hidden inside her clothes, covering it with her hand.

"Die! You all deserve to die!!!"

A furious shout drew nearer, and in the next second, a rotting body, missing eyeballs, heart, liver, spleen, stomach...

All in all, the ghost was full of holes!

When it appeared before them, everyone could see it, including Lin Xiaoyan.

Having just seen those images, she was relatively calm now.

The others were...

Lu Lan and the others turned pale; she thought those ghosts behind them were terrifying enough, but didn’t expect this one to be even worse!

The chief’s gaze lingered on the missing organs of the female ghost, careful observation revealed which organs were removed when she was alive.

"Oh" the chief sighed, his heart filled not with fear but with anger.

Outside, people had already gone berserk.

"The chief is missing!"

"Quick, go up and find him!"

"Those who went up with the chief are missing too..."

...

The people downstairs realized the chief and the others had been upstairs for a long time without returning, so they sent people up to search.

They reached the elevator, finding it stuck on the second floor.

Worried whether something had happened, they quickly took the stairs, discovering the second floor empty, the elevator still stuck between floors.

Those who were stationed on the second floor were gone too.

But people on the third and fourth floors seemed unaffected.

Only the second floor had issues.

The chief’s disappearance was a critical matter.

Worried, someone had already called the Chief of Staff, informing them of the situation here.

Chief of Staff Gao had just returned to the country, only to hear this news, shocked and furious; such a thing happening in their area.

Under the guise of supporting children, numerous dark dealings were committed.

The most significant issue was, those kids were minors!!!

Some were even only seven, eight, or teens...

These people not only collaborated with wealthy capitalists but possibly officials, creating a channel for human organ trading...

All of this violated the highest laws of Hua Country!

"Bastards!" Chief of Staff Gao couldn’t help but curse.

The Wild Wolf Squad, seated in the same vehicle, listened silently to the voice on the phone.

He Qi’an and Shi Nan exchanged looks, seeing seriousness in each other’s eyes.

This incident could involve many.

Possibly dragging down not only Yun Province, but even higher-ups...

"Alright, I understand, I’m heading over now, you continue searching, comb through the entire hotel, don’t miss a single spot, and make sure to find the chief and others quickly!"

After hanging up, Chief of Staff Gao immediately issued instructions, others continued with the original plan returning to base, taking the rescued and detained back for supervision.

He and the members of the Wild Wolf Team descended the mountain...

Time quickly passed, those outside becoming anxious like ants on a hot pan.

Meanwhile, it seemed Lin Xiaoyan’s group might have kinda sorta escaped the danger.

"How were you captured?"

Xiao Bo, pen in one hand and paper in the other, was recording what the queued ghosts were saying.

Due to the number of ghosts here, Lu Lan, the security personnel were separately asking the ghosts how they were captured, which organs were taken, when they died...

The chief and others gathered around the female ghost, listening to her recount the events here.

"I’ve been here seven years..."
