"Master, it seems there's nothing here. Let's go look elsewhere!" Big White stomped his foot and said to Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie nodded as well, preparing to leave and check the Guest Room in the backyard. Cang Qian was supposed to be researching the items obtained from the Azure Light Secret Realm, so he should be studying them in his own room, right?
The Guest Room was the most suspicious!
However, just as Ling Mo Xie and the others turned around, they did not notice that a vengeful spirit had emerged from behind the screen in the hall. With red eyes that slightly revealed a contemplative expression, it turned and jumped out of the window at the back of the hall, taking a shortcut to the Guest Room.
Those infected by Resentment or Spirit Beasts should only have endless Resentment in their minds; how could they show signs of thought?
Surprisingly, Ling Mo Xie had a smooth journey from the hall to the Guest Room, not encountering a single vengeful spirit or ghost.
But just as they arrived at the Guest Room and began checking each room one by one, they suddenly heard a loud laugh.
Ling Mo Xie's mind quickly shifted to his skill names, but he did not see any vengeful spirits or ghosts in the room before him.
"Crack, crack!" The sound of something breaking echoed. Ling Mo Xie looked up and saw that the beams were cracking inch by inch; something was on the roof?
Ling Mo Xie was startled and quickly led the spirits out of the room. Looking up, he saw a massive Tiger-shaped Grievance Monster lying on the roof. Its pair of red eyes shone like lanterns, glaring at Ling Mo Xie and the spirits behind him. When it saw the heavy smoke on Big White's back, a flicker of fear and contemplation flashed in its lifeless, resentment-filled red eyes.
But soon after, its Resentment took over again; its red pupils were left with only brutality, bloodlust, and hatred!
Was this the boss within the city lord's mansion? What about the source of Resentment? Ling Mo Xie wondered as he threw one Detection Skill after another at the massive vengeful monster but found nothing.
"Aw!" "Awooo!" An even more dangerous situation arose; what had been an eerily quiet Guest Room suddenly erupted with numerous vengeful spirits and monsters rushing out from every corner, surrounding Ling Mo Xie without him realizing it!
"Human? Why... why is there... no..." The massive Tiger-shaped Grievance Monster seemed to lack intelligence, stuttering out a few words that were quite incoherent and unclear in meaning.
Sweat beads as large as peas dripped continuously from Ling Mo Xie's forehead. Seeing that Detection Skill seemed ineffective against the massive Tiger-shaped Grievance Monster, he had no choice but to change tactics and throw a few skills at the encroaching vengeful spirits and monsters.
But upon seeing this, Ling Mo Xie felt an urge to curse!
The lowest among these vengeful spirits and grievance monsters are high-level grievance spirits and monsters, with nearly half of them being Elites!
And that enormous Tiger-shaped Grievance Monster can actually command these grievance spirits and monsters. It's obvious that it must be a higher-level entity than the advanced grievance monsters!
Big White retreated to Ling Mo Xie's side, letting out a low growl from its throat. It was only level seventy-eight, two levels lower than Ling Mo Xie, making it somewhat powerless against these grievance spirits and monsters.
"Heh, they're just low-level beings," Chen Yan said lightly, looking at the massive Tiger-shaped Grievance Monster with a faint smile.
Ling Mo Xie rolled his eyes. "Low-level? If they're so low-level, why don't you go deal with them?"
"But it's still a baby! How can you ask me to fight?" Chen Yan looked up at Ling Mo Xie and said seriously.
"Uh..." Ling Mo Xie opened his mouth, unsure of what to say. This thing is still a baby? Last time, it merely roared lightly and intimidated that Elite monster!
At this moment, Ling Mo Xie finally gathered some information about the Tiger-shaped Grievance Monster. He only knew that its name was Mingfu Yuanhu and its level was... ninety!
Of course, there was no doubt that it was a boss; the dark resentment surrounding it and the dazzling golden light emanating from it made that clear.
Mingfu Yuanhu studied Ling Mo Xie for a while, losing patience quickly. With a roar, all the grievance spirits and monsters seemed to receive an order and charged toward Ling Mo Xie.
It is worth mentioning that there were more grievance monsters than grievance spirits in the lord's mansion!
After all, the people in the lord's mansion had decent cultivation levels, most of whom had escaped. Those who didn't manage to escape were merely low-level servants, so becoming grievance spirits didn't make them particularly formidable.
However, those grievance monsters originally did not belong to the lord's mansion but were drawn from the nearby arena by the source of resentment.
In the arena, these grievance monsters were originally imprisoned. Although many of them had decent cultivation levels, they couldn't escape due to being confined. After transforming into grievance monsters, their power surged again, breaking free from their restraints and arriving at the lord's mansion where the resentment was even denser.
Thus, most of the enemies Ling Mo Xie faced were formidable grievance monsters.
The battle between the ghosts and the vengeful spirits was intense. Before Mingfu Yuanhu even made a move, five or six ghosts had already fallen. This time, it was the vengeful spirits and monsters employing a swarm tactic against Ling Mo Xie.
All the ghosts closed in on Ling Mo Xie, surrounding him in the center as they struggled to withstand the attacks from the vengeful spirits and monsters.
Chen Yan had already been shaken off by Big White and was now crouched at Ling Mo Xie's feet, watching the dire situation unfold without any expression, appearing completely indifferent as if he had no concern for his own safety.
"Damn it! Chen Yan! If you have any abilities, use them quickly; otherwise, we're all going to be done for!" Ling Mo Xie shouted at the relaxed Chen Yan while fending off attacks from the vengeful spirits with skills.
Chen Yan glanced at Ling Mo Xie and shook his head helplessly. "Alright, I'll save you all one more time."
A long howl echoed through the air, but there was an undertone of laziness in that sound.
Upon hearing Chen Yan's howl, the vengeful spirits that had been fierce and attacking vigorously suddenly seemed doused with cold water, their eyes flashing with fear as their movements faltered.
Even Mingfu Yuanhu took a few steps back upon hearing Chen Yan's voice, though the vengeful spirits remained unaffected.
Seeing this opportunity, Ling Mo Xie immediately activated the Floating Shadow he had just acquired. Suddenly, he transformed into five figures that darted past, hitting one of the vengeful spirits with several skills, causing Ling Mo Xie's Experience points to surge.
Under Ling Mo Xie's control, the ghosts seized this chance and gave their all; in no time, nearly all the vengeful spirits were dealt with.
"Ding! Congratulations! You have leveled up!" A golden light rose from Ling Mo Xie's body that only he could see. He smirked—level eighty-one? That meant he was only nine levels away from Mingfu Yuanhu. In-game, that was a small difference, but in reality... there was still some distance to cover.
