Into the dark and stranded alleyway, My Suyin could sense an abnormality.
What is more, the alleyway in the distance is not the only place that attracted her attention.
As the last ray of sunlight decayed, an eerie coldness gradually enclosed all around them, especially Myah, who seemed to be the center of its attention.
—
This ghostly and heart-clenching mood continued to expand, seemingly unaffected by the tides of bustling people endlessly moving back and forth on the streets.
Be it everyday Adventurers or ordinary folk. They could all could felt chilly goosebumps down their spine one after another.
"What the hell! It was just normal just a moment ago, so why the coldness all of a sudden!?"
"The suns just faded, and I suddenly feel like it's the midst of the winter season, shit!"
"Damn it! Which asshole with the ice element is trolling right now? There are so many people here, don't let me catch you otherwise. I will punch some sense in your donkey head!"
"That's right, only someone or War Soul with the ice element can make the air to be so cold—so sudden! To disrupt public order so openly in broad daylight, who does this guy think he is?"
"What the–hey, look over there! It looks like the vengeful spirits are gathering and heading over here—our direction..."
"What!?"
Outcry and uneasiness start spreading like wildfire among the Adventurers on the street once they notice the oddity.
Everyone readied their weapon while their War Souls awareness peaked, and all were on high alert!
At first, they wouldn't have given it much thought if it were just someone's trick, but ghosts and vengeful spirits are different!
No matter how weak they are, those vile beings are relatively complicated to deal with as they have no physical body, and some even possess the ability to take control over ordinary people and cultivators alike.
Although places like Yellow Town were prosperous and swarmed with many people numbered in the tens of thousands, it was also a popular place where many unspeakable things happened in secret.
Furthermore, by devouring each other, feeding on the negative emotions and fears of the people, any ghosts or vengeful spirits can get very powerful if given sufficient luck and the right circumstance.
Amid the panic crowd, a few quick-witted individuals directly flee from the scene to report it to the Adventure Association's branch.
There's no time to wait!
Without a specialist about vengeful spirits or those with the means to purge and purify them, there would be no doubt that this group of vengeful spirits will wreak disastrous havoc if they work together.
...
Standing in front of the Black Cat Inn, Mu Suyin's thoughts stormed quickly.
She wouldn't be surprised that some vengeful spirits or other things among the line are formed throughout the years and terrorized the people.
However, she couldn't understand the reason why their hostility seemed to only focus on Myah alone.
No, it was more like the craving of a hungry beast!
This trip was the first time Myah had ever come to town.
The moment they entered through the gate, she has instantly noticed a few vengeful spirits had been lingering around him all this while.
Now that the daylight had faded out completely, they have become even more glaring. This was also the reason why she decided to give Myah the Moon Shrine Bracelet in advance.
Is it the Spear Soul that they after? Or is it Myah's abnormally more potent soul force than those of the same realm that these vengeful spirits coveted so greatly?
At this moment, Mu Suyin wasn't sure!
However,
If they just minded their own business, she wouldn't be too bothered about their pitiful existence, but since they have chosen to target Myah for whatever reason...
'Heh!'
'Pitiful beings, since you have all chosen death, then shall this be your destruction!' Mu Suyin sneered coldly at this thought while her pitch-black eyes shone with peculiar brilliance.
Without any warning,
A strand of intangible but immense killing intent swiftly gushed out from Mu Suyin's body.
Like that of the most deadly and pointiest spear, it brutally slaughtered them into oblivion.
Although her strength is not what it used to be, they are but a bunch of small fries.
Not sparing anything, she completely purged all the ghosts and vengeful spirits lingering within the radius of a mile out of existence.
Everything happened in just a split second, and with Mu Suyin's acute control over her killing intent, no one could sense a thing.
The ghostly mood from earlier vanished as everyone was momentarily dazed.
Shock!
Confusion!
Disbelief!
The survived ghosts and vengeful spirits outside of Mu Suyin's killing range were thoroughly terrified and started fleeing in all directions like there was no tomorrow.
"What is going on!?"
"Why does it feel like I'm dreaming..."
"Did some hidden expert lend a hand and drove the vengeful spirits away!?"
No one knew!
For a moment until the patrolling knights and the staff of the Adventure Association arrived at the scene. The sudden onslaught of the vengeful spirits remains a mystery.

"We are here. Let's go in and buy you some clothes. Myah, are you excited?" Holding Myah's immature hand, Mu Suyin said with a mild chuckle.
The night is young and in front of them was a large building made from high-quality wood and crystalline glass called Hundred Flowery Styles, a general clothing store.
"Um, I'm excited! Oh, grandma, can you going to choose for me? Get the beautiful and awesome one!" Myah replied hurriedly. An innocent but thrilled smile decorated his childish face.
"Haha, of course, that's a given. Trust me, dear. Grandma will choose the most awesome one for you."
Although it was a general clothing store, many knew the place to have absolutely everything when it comes to women's and children's clothing.
As for men's outfits? The quality was questionable.
When Mu Suyin and Myah entered the clothing store, her sense of fashion immediately kicked in as they wandered to the woman's then the girl's section.
