The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Lou Lan gently patted the girl’s back, looked at Hua Jinyan, then slowly withdrew her gaze. Here, there were only Little Taotie and Hua Jinyan. Given how upset the girl was, the answer was obvious.

The three who entered the tower together have already had an accident.

In fact, many people knew that this mission was extremely dangerous.

After all, there are few people more powerful than Shen Cang, and even Shen Cang disappeared. The middle-level personnel of the Special Department might face life-threatening danger, yet everyone participated in searching for Shen Cang without hesitation, even though they knew it meant certain death.

Lou Lan exhaled softly, gently coaxing, ”The end is just the beginning. You can see ghosts, can’t you? You also know that a person’s death is not the end. They were remarkable members of the Special Department, achieved numerous accomplishments, and helped many people. They possess both opportunity and merit; in their next life, they will surely be reincarnated into good families.”

”But I can’t see their spiritual bodies. Doesn’t the absence of spiritual bodies mean they won’t be reincarnated...” Her voice was filled with loss, tinged with hoarseness.

Lou Lan’s heart skipped a beat, and she spoke with difficulty, ”Maybe they’ve already been reincarnated.”

”So soon?” Little Taotie’s big eyes brimmed with tears but did not fall, looking extremely pitiful.

Lou Lan didn’t want the girl’s tears to fall and nodded against her conscience, ”They have merit, died a wrongful death, so the Ghost Enforcer who receives them will arrive a bit faster.”

Little Taotie nodded, ”Then I’m relieved.”

The tear did not fall, and Lou Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As she glanced upward, she met Hua Jinyan’s eyes. This child’s eyes were unfathomable yet exceptionally clear, as if able to discern all the filth and lies of the world.

Meeting his eyes, Lou Lan felt a sense of guilt.

Lou Lan instinctively avoided his gaze, cleared her throat, ”Let’s first figure out how to leave here.”

Three colleagues had already sacrificed themselves here; Lou Lan didn’t believe she and the two children would gain anything by continuing to explore this Ancient Pagoda. Not encountering any trouble was already a blessing.

”Wait a moment.” Little Taotie dashed toward the stairs. Lou Lan wanted to catch up, but she had been injured in the Illusionary Realm earlier. Her foot was hurt, and she didn’t catch up in time.

Hua Jinyan chased after them, Lou Lan shouted: ”Come back quickly!”

But no one listened.

Before long, the girl returned, now carrying a person—a corpse, a tall male body.

The scene was somewhat eerie, a small person carrying a tall corpse in the dim Ancient Pagoda, causing some discomfort.

Lou Lan faced the male corpse’s face, which was one of unrest, his eyes wide open as if he had seen something incredibly terrifying before his death.

Even though she felt uneasy, this was her former colleague, after all. Lou Lan suppressed her fear and helped Little Taotie place the corpse on the ground. Just after putting down the corpse, she saw Hua Jinyan come back carrying the second corpse.

Lou Lan knew Little Taotie was born with Divine Power; it was not surprising she could carry a man’s corpse of 1.8 meters tall, but it was surprising that Hua Jinyan could also carry such a corpse.

Hua Jinyan silently put down the corpse and continued up the stairs, Little Taotie chased after: ”I’m going too!”

This time Lou Lan did not stop them because she knew they were going to bring back the third person.

Since they entered the Golden Tower together, they should bring them back.

Lou Lan began checking the corpses. Due to limited tools, she could only check briefly.

The two bodies had no fatal wounds, their eyes wide open, clearly witnessing great horror at the moment of death, likely scared to death.
