"Junior Sister Ye," Zhou Xuan suddenly said.
Ye Qingtang looked up at Zhou Xuan, whose face was pale from the disgust, and her lips curled up.
"Junior Sister Ye, this is your first time participating in a sect mission. I will definitely not let you do anything dangerous. However, a certain amount of training is still necessary. These skulls might contain clues about the Spirit Condensation Mountain Village case. Hence … Junior Sister Ye, you must check every skull carefully to see if there are any clues." Zhou Xuan had a noble look as though he was sincerely choosing a good mission for Ye Qingtang.
The two disciples at the side could not help but snicker at Zhou Xuan's words.
To be honest, the skulls were so rotten that they would vomit yesterday's dinner if they looked at them for a few more times, much less touching and checking. Moreover … the skulls were so rotten that even if there were any clues, the chances of finding them would be very slim. It was not that they were unwilling to waste effort on this matter.
However …
Since Ye Qingtang was going to do it, they were naturally happy to be free.
Zhou Xuan's words made Lin Long frown slightly.
Ye Qingtang looked at Zhou Xuan's sanctimonious expression and did not reject Zhou Xuan's suggestion. She shrugged and said, "Sure."
No one expected Ye Qingtang to agree so easily.
After all, even an adult man would have the guts to face such a rotten tower of skulls, much less a young girl. However, Ye Qingtang agreed readily.
Zhou Xuan originally wanted to see Ye Qingtang resist and did not expect her to be so straightforward. His lips twitched, but thinking about it again, Ye Qingtang was going to be mixed with these rotten human heads next, and he calmed down immediately.
"Thank you, Junior Sister Ye." Zhou Xuan smiled hypocritically and then looked at the Apothecary. "The skulls of the three hundred people from Spirit Condensation Mountain Village are all here. Where are their bodies?"
The Apothecary said, "The bodies are scattered everywhere in the village. I will bring you guys to take a look now."
Zhou Xuan raised his brows and took a look at Ye Qingtang. "Okay."
Apothecary then said to Wu Zheng, "Young Master, I'll have to trouble you to accompany this lord to identify these skulls."
The handsome youth, who had been silent all this while, nodded expressionlessly.
Subsequently, the Apothecary brought Zhou Xuan and the rest to check other places in the manor. Lin Long wanted to stay, but Ye Qingtang shook her head at her when she stopped. Lin Long hesitated for a moment before following Zhou Xuan and the rest.
A cold smile appeared in her eyes as she watched Zhou Xuan and the rest leave.
How could she not know what Zhou Xuan was thinking?
However …
Zhou Xuan was going to be disappointed if he wanted to scare her with these rotten human heads. She had seen all kinds of bloody scenes in her past life.
She had even hid under a pile of rotting corpses for several days and nights in order to avoid being hunted down.
How could a few hundred heads scare her?
What a joke.
She did not care about Zhou Xuan's little tricks at all. She was more concerned about the Spirit Condensation Mountain Village's tragedy.
