The wind howled harshly through the courtyard in the night, sweeping the dried leaves on the ground up in a whirlwind.
Lu Sheng surveyed the scene before him. Finding no one, he hastened his steps and went around the bedroom to the backyard. Two individual latrines were built in the backyard, isolated from the rest of the buildings.
As Lu Sheng approached, he caught sight of a silhouette of a person standing outside the latrine. This person seemed to notice his arrival as well, and visibly put on their guard.
"Who’s that?!"
Lu Sheng was startled. He walked closer for a better look and realized it was the handsome Young Master who was also an inner force expert from previously.
Presently, this man was gripping onto a short sword in his hand. His pupils sparkled brilliantly, clearly indicating his state of vigilance.
"This Brother, did you come looking for missing people too?" Li Shunxi asked after recognizing Lu Sheng.
[1] ED/N: Latrine again. Is it me or are the latrines in this world dangerous? ...Toilet specters? Souls of the dead who died of heart attack after finding out the toilet paper was used up, and who are now searching for replacement? Or is it that the ghosts and whatnot there just have some unusual hobby? XD
