Chapter 121 - Strange female demon

The furnishings inside the cabin were similar to those in the Ghost Cabin, with only a wooden bed and a dressing table, and nothing else.

Jiang Kai and the other two circled the room several times, searching the bed, under the bed, inside the table, and through the drawers, but found nothing.

They then carefully examined the cabin from the outside, knocking here and there, and finally concluded that it was just an abandoned cabin.

"Captain Kai, do you think we've been tricked by Orient Loong God?" Ruan Yu frowned. "What does this cabin have to do with the secret realm?"

Jiang Kai was also at a loss.

Logically, Di Sang made a promise in front of everyone, and with the Azure Dragon Guild's reputation, they wouldn't deceive them like this.

Hu Yan returned from circling the back of the cabin and shook his head at Jiang Kai and Ruan Yu, "There's nothing here. Could we have made a mistake?"

Jiang Kai shook his head, "It doesn't seem like it! Did you notice how the outside of the cabin is very dilapidated, but the inside is exceptionally clean, without even a speck of dust?"

"Clearly, someone has been here and inspected the place thoroughly."

Hu Yan also added, "Indeed, there are signs of digging around the yard, but they have been filled back in. It's possible that people from the Azure Dragon Guild are also looking for the entrance to the secret realm."

Jiang Kai recalled what Di Sang said that day; the Azure Dragon Guild hadn't found the entrance to the secret realm yet, but they were certain there should be one here.

The Azure Dragon Guild is one of the top guilds among the ten major guilds, and even they couldn't find the entrance. How could the Fire God Squad find it so easily?

Entering a secret realm, a rare area, is not a simple task.

So the question is, how did they determine that this ordinary cabin would be an entrance to a secret realm?

Jiang Kai was troubled...

Unknowingly, night had fallen. Jiang Kai thought for a moment and said, "There must be some mystery to this cabin. Let's not disturb its environment for now. We'll camp nearby tonight."

In the evening, Ruan Yu set up a campfire, sipping some liquor while roasting mountain rat meat.

"Hey Kai, Hu, want a bite?"

Jiang Kai and Hu Yan ignored him.

Ruan Yu felt uncomfortable if he didn't drink for a day, being a drunkard. Jiang Kai and Hu Yan were used to it, just hoping he'd get drunk and fall asleep soon.

Late at night, Ruan Yu's snores echoed through the camp, while Jiang Kai and Hu Yan remained awake.

"Any movement?" Jiang Kai asked.

Hu Yan shook his head, "This place rarely even sees beasts, and I've noticed nothing unusual."

Jiang Kai frowned, looking at the cabin standing quietly in the night, with an eerie stillness.

At midnight, Hu Yan fell asleep first, but Jiang Kai continued to watch the cabin.

The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

Could it really be that they were deceived by Orient Loong God?

Just then, a gust of night wind blew, sending a chill through Jiang Kai, causing him to shiver involuntarily... His mind suddenly became much clearer.

Suddenly, he caught sight of a shadow moving at high speed, darting into the cabin through the window!

If it weren't for his Ghost Eye, it would have been difficult to discern such a fast-moving shadow in the dense darkness.

"Hu Yan, Ruan Yu, wake up!" Jiang Kai roused the drowsy pair and immediately rushed toward the cabin.

Pushing the door open, the once-empty cabin now had a figure standing inside.

It was a woman, dressed in a white nightgown, her body half-suspended in the air, long hair hanging down in front of her, and ten claw-like fingers hanging at her sides from her long sleeves.

"Ghost Banshee?" Jiang Kai exclaimed.

They had waited all this time, only for a Ghost Banshee to occupy the empty cabin?

"So beautiful..." Ruan Yu murmured, looking infatuated.

Hu Yan quickly nudged him, and upon rubbing his eyes and seeing the woman again, Ruan Yu was startled, "Oh no, a banshee!"

The Ghost Banshee, upon noticing Jiang Kai and the others, brushed aside her long hair, revealing a ghastly smiling face.

Jiang Kai prepared to fight, but after waiting for a while, the banshee did not attack.

She just floated in front of them, with an exaggerated smile on her face... Upon closer inspection, it seemed she wasn't smiling at Jiang Kai and the others, but rather her mouth was just too wide.

"She's... she's not attacking us?" Hu Yan hid behind Ruan Yu, cautiously watching the banshee.

Jiang Kai was also puzzled, unsure whether to kill the banshee or wait for her to make a move.

After a moment of stalemate, the banshee slowly turned around and leisurely sat at the dressing table.

In the mirror, her terrifying face was reflected, but her gaze was fixed on her own reflection, ignoring Jiang Kai and the others behind her.

Time passed by, and the banshee made no other moves, sitting quietly at the dressing table.

"Should we kill her and see if she drops something?" Hu Yan speculated.

Jiang Kai thought it was worth a try, so he fired a first-level Pursuer at the banshee's back.

However, the Pursuer passed right through the banshee's body and embedded itself in the dressing table.

The banshee showed no reaction, and the flames on the Pursuer extinguished immediately.

Jiang Kai tried several more times, all with the same result.

Finally, he put away the Pursuer, confirming one fact.

The banshee was immune to his attacks!

"What is going on? I'm at a loss." Jiang Kai was baffled.

The three of them spent half the night dealing with the banshee.

As dawn broke, the banshee finally glanced out the window, perhaps sensing the time, and suddenly transformed into a black mist, darting out of the window.

The room was once again left with only Jiang Kai and his companions.

After last night's events, they realized that the information from Orient Loong God was likely accurate.

After all, they had killed thousands of beasts, but had never encountered anything so strange.

The second night, the banshee returned to the cabin, once again sitting at the dressing table, silent and unmoving for half the night.

And as dawn approached, she left the cabin.

For three consecutive days, it was the same!

On the fourth day, a large group of people appeared, all bearing the Azure Dragon Guild's insignia. Upon arriving at the cabin and seeing Jiang Kai and the others looking dejected in the camp, they said nothing, simply setting up their own camp.

The Azure Dragon Guild had only promised Jiang Kai and his team three days of solo exploration, and once that time was up, they returned.

Seeing the dozens of new camps around, Jiang Kai shook his head helplessly, "The solo exploration time is over... Judging by their nonchalant attitude, they must have been troubled by this issue for a while."

At that moment, a burly man in his forties approached.

This man had a broad chest, stood around 1.8 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and eyes even smaller than Hu Yan's. He wore a soldier's uniform, seemingly having anticipated no immediate combat, and had come in casual attire.

"Fire God Squad, hello, I'm Ao Wu, captain of the Tenglong Squad from the Azure Dragon Guild, and the lead for this secret realm exploration," the man said with a smile to Jiang Kai and his companions. "How's it going? Any discoveries these past few days?"

"Ao Wu..." Jiang Kai and the others stood up, "Hello."

"Aside from the banshee, we haven't found anything else. You must have noticed the banshee long ago," Jiang Kai said.

Ao Wu nodded, "If we hadn't discovered the banshee, we wouldn't have paid attention to this cabin. Judging by your situation, you must be as clueless as we are about how to proceed."

Jiang Kai didn't hide anything, "That's right, we've tried various attack methods, but the banshee is immune to all of them. She doesn't attack us either, just sits there looking in the mirror."

Ao Wu smiled slightly, speaking with more certainty, "Physical attacks, elemental attacks, even True Qi attacks are ineffective against her. We also tried having a Spirit Medium communicate with her, but she didn't respond."

"She comes at night and leaves at dawn, almost like clockwork."

Jiang Kai frowned, realizing that the information from Azure Dragon matched his own.

"Is there a way to track the banshee?" Jiang Kai asked.

Ao Wu shook his head, "We can't keep up with her. She's too fast and flies. We've stationed people along her route, but beyond 300 meters from the cabin, she vanishes without a trace."

"We even examined the mirror, but it's just an ordinary one."

Ao Wu sighed, "Secret realms are getting harder to enter. It took us over two months just to find this entrance!"

"What method or condition is needed to make the banshee speak?"

After Ao Wu left, Jiang Kai fell into deep thought.

Azure Dragon had brought more precise information, but it wasn't good news. They had tried more things, yet still found nothing.

Night fell again, and when the banshee appeared, Ao Wu led several teams into the cabin, only to retreat shortly after.

Passing by the Fire God Camp, Ao Wu said to Jiang Kai, "Jiang Kai, you can go in and take a look. Since we've shared the information with you, we're not against you continuing to search for clues."

Jiang Kai nodded, pulling Hu Yan and Ruan Yu back into the cabin.

The banshee sat at the dressing table, quietly looking at her reflection, making no other moves.

Jiang Kai frowned, and in a moment of desperation, he raised his Fearless One's watch and pointed it at the mirror.

[Unknown, extremely dangerous.]

"Hmm?" Seeing this line of information, Jiang Kai's brow furrowed even more.

His Fearless One's watch actually indicated that the mirror was very dangerous?
