Ming and Xinyi team still followed the narrow path. Suddenly, two ghosts came out in front of Ming and Balin's faces. Their heads jerked back, hitting the walls behind them with a loud thud.
Thank goodness Xinyi's mind was alert and let the Hutyuns make continuous slashes at the ghouls, sending them back into the wall. The two hurt persons groaned with their hurting heads.
"Thank you, Sir Nianshi," Sir Gib said. Xinyi exhaled, relieved to know Gib didn't notice she produced two swords at a time.
"Be careful, my lady," Nianshi warned in her mind.
"I know," Xinyi replied the same way.
"Thank you, Xinyi," said Ming, thanking her genuinely, but he was sweating real hard.
"Are you fine?" Xinyi asked, looking at his sweats. She wished to wipe them but looking at her dirty hands and sleeves, she held off.
