Chapter 435 Skinny Monkey
"Looking for death!" Seeing this, Ye Xian's face darkened and he snorted coldly. His voice seemed to carry an invisible pressure that made people shudder.
Just as the skinny monkey's hand was about to touch Ye Xian, suddenly, a powerful force like an invisible rope tightly wrapped around the skinny monkey's body. This force came so fast that the skinny monkey didn't even have time to react before being trapped in place.
His body froze in mid-air in an extremely strange position, as if time had suddenly stopped. His expression was frozen on his face, his eyes wide open, filled with astonishment and fear.
"Haha... no more fun!" Li Xingyun shrugged helplessly as he watched the scene unfold. He had hoped the farce would continue, but he hadn't expected Ye Xian to act so swiftly, instantly rendering the skinny monkey incapacitated.
"Oh, sir, you are so great! I feel safe with you around!" Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng immediately cooperated with her and said coquettishly, then snuggled up to Li Xingyun's chest like a little bird, and spoke in a coquettish voice.
At this time, the younger brothers behind the skinny monkey also noticed his abnormality. They saw that the skinny monkey's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and they were a little puzzled. So they walked up to the skinny monkey, patted his shoulders, and asked in confusion: "Brother...brother, what's wrong with you?"
However, the skinny monkey was unable to answer their questions. His body was firmly imprisoned by the mysterious power and he could not move at all, let alone speak.
"Do you want to know?" Li Xingyun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at Shouhou's younger brothers with a smile, and asked softly.
One of the younger brothers seemed to realize something immediately. He widened his eyes, pointed at Li Xingyun, and asked angrily, "What did you do to my brother?"
"No manners!" The skinny little brother's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing Li Xingyun's interest in teasing them. He felt very disappointed and couldn't help but complain.
Li Xingyun turned to look at Ye Xian, waved his hand casually, and ordered: "Get rid of it, don't affect our appetite!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xian nodded, then stood up and walked out of the inn slowly.
Seeing this, Xiong Laoer widened his eyes and looked at Ye Xian with suspicion, obviously confused by his actions.
However, the next second, something incredible happened. Skinny Monkey and the others, who had been frozen in place like statues, suddenly began to float up without warning, as if being held up by an invisible force.
Their bodies rose higher and higher from the ground, as if they had transformed into light, floating human-shaped balloons, completely detached from the ground. Even more strangely, although these people were floating in mid-air, they always maintained a certain distance, as if they were connected by an invisible thread.
This bizarre scene made Xiong Laoer so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. He rubbed his eyes hard, fearing that he was seeing things. However, no matter how hard he rubbed, the scene in front of him did not change at all.
A pea-sized bead of sweat trickled down Xiong Laoer's forehead. His heartbeat quickened, and an inexplicable fear surged through him. Although he hadn't seen much of the world, this was the first time he had seen such a bizarre scene, and he couldn't help but panic.
boom!
As Shouhou and his group left the inn as quickly as the wind, the already worn wooden door slammed shut behind them with a dull sound, as if the door was so frightened by the sudden change that it was at a loss as to what to do.
However, the sound did not last long. The next moment, a figure appeared silently at the door of the inn like a ghost.
Ye County!
His appearance was like a flash of lightning that broke through the silence of the night, catching everyone off guard.
Xiong Laoer looked at Ye Xian with suspicion, thinking to himself: Why is this kid back again?
Before he could figure it out, Ye Xian had already walked into the inn. His steps were steady and powerful, and each step seemed to carry an invisible pressure that made people dare not look directly at him.
"Let's go! Let's go!" Seeing this, Xiong Laoer hurriedly pulled the woman beside him and prepared to rush out.
However, the woman seemed to be nailed to the spot, not moving at all.
"Oh...if you want to leave, go ahead. I won't leave!" The woman suddenly shook off Xiong Laoer's hand, her face full of reluctance, and even curled her lips in dissatisfaction.
Her gaze never fell on Xiong Lao Er from beginning to end, but was looking straight at Li Xingyun.
Xiong Laoer followed the woman's gaze and immediately understood.
It turns out that this woman has taken a fancy to Li Xingyun and wants to get close to him!
Although Xiong Lao Er looks rough and like a reckless man, he is actually a smart man.
He naturally would not give up his life for a woman, so he turned around and left without saying a word.
After leaving the inn, Xiong Laoer looked around, but was surprised to find that Shouhou and others had disappeared without a trace, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth!
"Where are the people?" Xiong Laoer couldn't help but mutter to himself while taking a cautious step forward.
Click!
Just when he was caught off guard, there was a sudden crisp sound under his feet, as if something broke. This sound was particularly abrupt in the silent environment and immediately attracted all his attention.
He looked down in astonishment and saw a silver necklace lying quietly on the ground, gleaming faintly in the moonlight. The necklace chain looked a little worn, obviously it had been there for a long time, but the pendant was well preserved, and the gemstones inlaid on it emitted a charming brilliance in the moonlight.
"Hmm!" Xiong Laoer swallowed involuntarily, a slight sound coming from his throat. His heartbeat instantly accelerated, and an inexplicable fear surged through him. He stared at the necklace with wide eyes, as if it were a venomous snake, ready to attack him at any moment.
Almost instantly, Second Bear broke into a run as if being chased by something terrifying. His steps were staggering and panicked, like a frightened hare or a stray dog, desperately trying to escape from this place.
As he ran, he secretly groaned in his heart. He was very familiar with this necklace; it belonged to Shou Hou! But now, Shou Hou had disappeared, and his necklace had inexplicably appeared here. Thinking back to the dull sound when Ye Xian left the house just now, Xiong Lao Er felt even more uneasy.
