Sima Youyue walked around Midnight City. She was not used to seeing so many spirits floating around.
Although she was the same as well.
There were no teahouses or restaurants here. People who had not materialized their physical bodies could not drink or eat. However, there were many shops. Especially the things that could increase one's strength. Although they were expensive, they were very popular.
Sima Youyue and Wu Lingyu suppressed their strength. Hence, they looked like ordinary people. Even when they went to the shops, no one greeted them.
After walking around, they returned to the inn and realized that someone had entered their room.
The things in the room seemed to be the same as before. However, Sima Youyue was very sensitive to details. Not to mention, there was a faint smell in the room.
Wu Lingyu went to open the window to let the smell dissipate.
"This smell is familiar. I seem to have smelled it somewhere before." Sima Youyue recalled. She remembered a face that was hidden in a beard. "Seems like someone is very interested in us!"
"Not us. It's you." Wu Lingyu said, "My soul doesn't have such a seductive smell."
Sima Youyue shrugged, "Are you blaming me?"
Her soul had a seductive smell. She knew it when she met Yu Du in the Wonderland. When she was in the Ghost Realm, only a few people would consume souls. Furthermore, she had a high status and was very strong. Hence, no one dared to do anything to her.
Now that she was in the Soul Society, special souls would be noticed. Even if she suppressed her strength and aura, she still could not escape the nose of some special people.
She knew that there would be people interested in her soul when she came here. However, she did not expect it to be so fast. This was just a city at the border. If they went deeper into the Soul Society, they would probably meet many more people.
"Buzz buzz buzz …"
Suddenly, a sound came from the sky outside the city and interrupted their conversation. They looked out of the window and saw many people rushing out of the city.
"What's going on? They all look very excited. "Sima Youyue looked at the crowd below.
"Let's go and take a look." Wu Lingyu pulled her and flew out. They landed on the street and joined the group.
The noises in the air continued to ring out. They realized that the more time passed, the more agitated the people around them became. They kept running outside, and no one was willing to stop even if they wanted to find someone to ask.
When they reached the outskirts of the city, Sima Youyue finally understood why these people were so excited.
In a huge open space, some faint shadows appeared. The wounds on their bodies were still fresh, indicating that they had just arrived.
She and Wu Lingyu looked at each other. This was the first time they had encountered such a situation.
Those souls were still in a daze and didn't know where they were.
Sima Youyue saw many people swallowing their saliva as they stared at the souls with sparkling eyes. She thought that they would go up and divide the souls among themselves, but they held themselves back and did not move.
"Where is this?"
"Who are we? Why are there so many people here? "
"I, I …"
Hundreds of souls stood in place, not knowing where they were, not knowing who they were, and not knowing what they were going to face. But in the face of such a situation, their instincts made them afraid.
They wanted to escape, but an army immediately ran over and surrounded them.
"Who are you? What are you doing?! "
"Don't hurt us!"
"Let us go!"
The soldiers didn't pay any attention to their words. The leader of the soldiers shouted, "Test your talent!"
A few people came out from behind the soldiers and came to the open space. They held blood-red stones, approached the souls, and extended the testing stones into their bodies.
Even if they were souls, they were still normal life forms in the World of Spirits and Souls. When a hand and a stone were inserted into their bodies, those people cried out in pain. Some of the weaker souls couldn't even withstand such power, and directly turned into smoke and dissipated.
And for those who could withstand such power, the testing stones began to change color when they entered their bodies. The lowest level only emitted red light, and the stronger the soul power, the lighter the color. There were a total of seven levels, and according to the people around them, it seemed that the strongest test stone would turn white. But there was no one with such talent in this group of people.
After the test was over, the souls that changed four levels were taken away by the soldiers, and the remaining seventy to eighty souls stayed where they were, not knowing what to do.
Sima Youyue noticed that the eyes of the people around them were becoming more and more fanatical, and she pulled Wu Lingyu out. After the soldiers left, the people who were still in order just now became crazy, and flew towards those souls.
Someone caught the souls, used the power of the underworld to suppress them into a small ball, and then … ate them directly.
Sima Youyue felt a little disgusted, no wonder these people were so excited when they heard the commotion, so this was their plan.
She and Wu Lingyu stood at a distance and watched for a while, then turned around and returned to the city. Before they reached the city, they were stopped by someone.
It was the bearded man!
"Kekeke — those people are so stupid, they don't want such delicious souls, but go for those fresh souls?" The bearded man laughed and looked at her with greed.
"It's you." Sima Youyue looked at him, not surprised at all. But when she thought about how someone like this entered her house, she felt disgusted.
When she went back, she must ask the shopkeeper to change her room to a clean one!
She smiled coldly, "You followed us from the city to the outside, and then followed us from the outside to here, and now you finally can't hold it in anymore?"
"You knew that I was following you." The bearded man's heart sank, "You came here on purpose?"
"You're not too stupid." Sima Youyue said, "I didn't expect you to follow us so easily."
"How did you find me?" The bearded man didn't believe it, he was very good at hiding, how did they find him?
"Your stench can be smelled from a few hundred miles away, if we can't find you, we don't need to stay in the Soul Society anymore!" Sima Youyue laughed coldly, "You dare to have ideas about me, then you should be prepared to die!"
Although the bearded man was surprised that Sima Youyue was so sensitive to smell, he didn't think that she was very powerful. How strong could a soul that didn't even have a physical body, be?
Thus, he didn't take the two of them seriously, he was still fantasizing about eating Sima Youyue to increase his strength. But before he could do anything, he felt that he couldn't move.
Suppression!
He looked at Sima Youyue and Wu Lingyu in shock, he didn't expect them to be so powerful! Seeing the two of them walking over slowly, he felt that he heard the call of death.
