Chapter 44

The four black-clad men left the cave but did not see Zhong Qing again.

Initially, they had wanted to look for Zhong Qing's whereabouts, but as soon as they exited the cave, they felt a chilling breeze around them. It was as if more ghosts had begun to gather nearby.

Curiously, after leaving the Night Chill Cave, the ghosts they had seen inside completely disappeared.

It seemed these ghosts could only be seen within the confines of the Night Chill Cave.

The realization that ghosts truly existed left them awestruck. Still, they comforted themselves: they had written their names down, so the ghosts likely wouldn't come after them!

Just as they were preparing to leave, a thick black fog suddenly emerged from within the cave, engulfing them before they could react.

When the fog dissipated, the four stood frozen for a moment. When they blinked and opened their eyes, their gazes were filled with confusion.

"Where are we?"
