Volume 1, Chapter 61: Encountering a Specter in Broad Daylight!

Luo Feng similarly turned around, exchanged glances with Luo Bin, and nodded slightly.

Luo Bin understood instantly, and the father and son walked toward another room that was making noise.

Finding Zhang Li might not have meant much to Luo Feng.

But to himself, could it be an unexpected blessing?

At least, Gu Yiren would finally have someone to take care of her.

Besides, Zhang Li was extremely noisy; given everything that had happened recently, he had never stopped chattering.

It was hardly surprising that Luo Feng had not removed the cloth gag from his mouth.

The banging sounds grew heavier!

The muffled cries grew louder!

It sounded as though someone were in extreme distress.

"He seems to have something to say..." Luo Bin's eyelids twitched slightly.

The father and son had already stopped right outside the room door.

"We'll detain Chen Qianqian and question them together," Luo Feng replied in a deep, cold voice.

Luo Bin instinctively blocked the direction of the doorway.

The muffled sound turned out to be the door of the room closing!

In a flash, Luo Bin caught a fleeting glimpse of Chen Xianxian's face. Her expression had turned exceptionally fierce and venomous, and the corners of her mouth even curled into a crafty smile.

Something was wrong!

Cold sweat instantly broke out along his spine.

Luo Bin grabbed Luo Feng's arm, stopping him from opening the door.

The living room was dim with no windows, letting in no extra light.

The room they were facing became completely silent, without the slightest sound.

Luo Feng frowned deeply. "These two sisters can't possibly stir up any more trouble."

"I still feel something isn't right... Otherwise, why would Chen Xianxian run away only to come back and shut the door? Should we untie Zhang Li first, stay by the doorway, and call more people over to ensure nothing goes wrong?" Luo Bin stared fixedly at the door as he stepped backward.

Caution is the parent of safety.

Luo Bin felt that Luo Feng still held a stereotyped view of the Chen sisters. Although he was much better off in this regard than Gu Ya, Luo Feng had still not completely shed that mindset.

Pulled along by Luo Bin, Luo Feng did not stubbornly stand his ground and retreated with him.

However, when he changed direction and retreated toward the living room door, intending to pull it open, the door remained completely immobile—evidently locked from the outside.

Luo Bin retreated into the room, yanked the cloth gag out of Zhang Li's mouth in one fluid motion, and slashed his knife downward to sever the ropes binding his hands.

"Run! There's an evil entity! Hurry, run!"

"Untie my legs right now!"

Zhang Li's roar was so loud his voice nearly cracked, and a spray of blood-flecked foam even flew from his lips!

Luo Bin moved swiftly, yet his mind was buzzing intensely.

There was an evil entity here?!

An evil entity, inside this house?

Zhang Li's terror did not seem feigned; was the evil entity inside the very room they had just nearly opened?

Was that why Zhang Li had been making such a huge commotion?!

Yet, in broad daylight, what could an evil entity possibly do?

Luo Bin grabbed Zhang Li by the arm and pulled him out of the wardrobe. Unable to stand steadily, Zhang Li stumbled forward and fell.

"Run... hurry, run..."

He reached back and grabbed Luo Bin's wrist in a death grip, as if clutching a straw to save his life. His voice was laced with weeping, and the terror in his eyes intensified.

The door opened.

It was not the living room door. The living room door was locked from the outside, and since it opened inward, it could neither be pushed open nor kicked down.

It was the bedroom door—the one that had been making noise without opening—that swung wide.

A woman stood in the doorway, biting her lower lip while holding a section of her braided ponytail.

She lifted her chin slightly, radiating an alluring charm with her melting gaze.

She was looking right at him.

And out of the corner of her eye, was she casting sideways glances at Luo Feng?

Her petite figure was surprisingly curvy. She looked identical to Chen Xianxian, with only two differences: one wore her long hair loose while the other had a ponytail, and there was a tiny mole at the corner of her mouth.

There really were two of them.

They truly were twin sisters!

Luo Bin had relived too much of the previous night and had convinced himself that the person he interacted with was Chen Xianxian alone, playing two roles.

After all, their distinguishing features were too scarce, making it far too easy to disguise and conceal.

Luo Feng strode forward like the wind, heading directly toward Chen Qianqian.

"Don't go over there! She's an evil entity! She ate Zhu Qianqian!" Zhang Li roared at the top of his lungs, the veins on his forehead bulging!

Luo Feng froze in his tracks.

Luo Bin's expression shifted again. Every hair on his body stood on end, and goosebumps broke out across his skin in waves!

"Stinky man, you never say anything nice until I've broken you in. Who's an evil entity?" Chen Qianqian took dainty steps, gracefully emerging from the room.

She reached up to adjust the collar of her shirt, leaving one fragrant shoulder half-exposed.

"Am I an evil entity?"

Chen Qianqian walked toward Luo Feng, her breathing growing heavier. Yet, far from being repulsive, it carried an even more captivating allure, like orchid breath exhaled in the breeze.

"Get lost!" Luo Feng rebuked angrily, leveling his knife horizontally across his chest.

Instead of retreating, Chen Qianqian smiled foolishly, her eyes fluttering. She reached out and lightly tapped her fingertip against the blade of Luo Feng's knife.

The phrase "vixen" had just been given a concrete form.

"I saw this outsider looking delicate and handsome, so I invited him home for the night. But he was utterly shameless; after taking advantage of me, he still wanted my sister. That's why we tied him up, intending to hand him over to you to let the village chief deal with him."

"He's just a madman spouting nonsense."

"Tie him up and I'll serve the two of you father and son. You can take him away later, alright?"

Chen Qianqian turned slightly, as if attempting to slip directly into Luo Feng's arms.

All of this actually happened in the span of a few breaths.

The goosebumps on Luo Bin's arms refused to subside. Zhang Li's words were deeply bizarre; under normal circumstances, evil entities could not move during the day. He had seen a trapped evil entity in that mountain trap, and it had looked just like someone fast asleep.

Yet, could evil entities truly not move at all?

Theoretically speaking, wasn't he himself an evil entity?

"Dad, watch out for her!" Luo Bin blurted out immediately. He strode forward like the wind, violently swinging his blade to slash at Chen Qianqian's back!

Luo Feng countered with a backhanded slash of his own, aiming straight for Chen Qianqian's arm!

Quick as lightning, a strange smile bloomed on Chen Qianqian's face—the exact twin of the evil entity from the dead of night!

She grabbed Luo Feng's arm.

There was no sound, only the sound of fabric tearing.

Luo Feng's skin felt like modeling clay as her fingernails pierced straight through without the slightest resistance.

Instantly, the veins on Luo Feng's forehead bulged, and he let out a muffled groan, stubbornly suppressing a scream.

Luo Bin's blade slashed viciously across Chen Qianqian's back!

Under normal circumstances, a blade this sharp would slice flesh wide open. Yet to Luo Bin, it felt as though he had struck a piece of dead pig hide; the blade simply refused to sink in!

Chen Qianqian's hand brushed across Luo Feng's arm as gently as a soft caress. The very next moment, she spun around and lunged furiously at Luo Bin!

At that instant, the smile on her face widened, her eyes brimming with intense craving and excitement.

Luo Feng was trembling all over, several bloody gasps torn into his left arm as blood streamed down continuously.

Yet he did not retreat. With his left hand, he drew another blade from his leather belt and hacked fiercely toward Chen Qianqian!

Luo Bin had just pulled back his blade to parry, but the grinning face of Chen Qianqian made his blood run cold!

He thrust his knife forward violently, aiming straight for her throat!

It was utterly bizarre—when the tip of the blade struck her neck, it failed to pierce the skin entirely, glancing off instead and causing Luo Bin's body to lurch forward perilously close to Chen Qianqian.

Luo Feng's heavy slash landed squarely on Chen Qianqian's shoulder!

The sheer force knocked Chen Qianqian stumbling several paces to the left.

That was the only reason she failed to pounce on Luo Bin!

Even so, there were still virtually no wounds on her body, save for a few slashes across her clothing that revealed vast patches of snow-white skin.

"She really is an evil entity!" Luo Feng's voice was exceptionally gravelly as his chest heaved up and down.
