Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

Chapter 263: Densely Foggy Canyon

Liu Rushuang quickly set off with the shadow guards and assassins. Their destination was the Canyon of Hell.

For three days and three nights, everyone quickly rode their horses before they finally reached the Canyon of Hell.

“Wahh wahh.. what are we going to do? Chen’er went in and who knows if something might’ve happened to him?!” The group suddenly heard an elderly woman say outside the canyon. The old woman stood with a middle-aged man of over forty years old in tears.

The man sighed in despair. “Ahhh... I hear very few people who enter, manage to come out. We’d just be sending ourselves out to die!”

“My Chen’er! Wahhh wahhh!” The old lady cried.

Liu Rushuang leapt off the horse and walked up to the two. “We plan to head into the Canyon of Hell. Perhaps, we can find the Chen’er whom you speak of,” she told them.

The old woman saw Liu Rushuang’s beautiful complexion and her face looked tense.

“You guys can’t go in there! You won’t be able to leave after once you’ve entered! Lady, you’re better of taking your people and heading back,” she said with a choked-up voice.

All Liu Rushuang did was slightly furrow her brows and flatly say, “We must enter.” Then, she turned around, got on her horse and led the group into the Canyon of Hell.

They entered the Canyon of Hell, and noticed it was so dark that they couldn’t see their fingers.

Liu Rushuang loudly ordered the group, “Ride closely one after the other! Don’t get lost no matter what!”

“Yes! Madam (Milady)!” The shadow guards and assassins received their orders, then slowly continued onward.

The air seemed more and more humid.

The grass on the ground were also thicker.

They continued onward until they reached a forest full of tall trees.

“Clan master, it’s really strange here! You can’t see anything all around you!” said Lin Ye, who rode by Liu Rushuang’s side.

“Yeah! Why does it feel eerie?” Mei Ye tightly hugged his arms in slight fear.

“Coward!” Grunted Mo Ye in annoyance, then strutted to the front.

With a faint smile, Liu Rushuang looked ahead of her. “Look far ahead, there seems to a be a bright light. A little further and we should be able to get there,” she said.

“Yes, milady. Let’s just hope we don’t come across some kind of monster!” cried Lin Ye who furrowed his elegant brows.

Liu Rushuang conjured up a ball of flames to illuminate the surroundings. “Let’s pick up the pace!” She ordered flatly.

Everyone followed behind Liu Rushuang and rode faster.

“Stop!” Liu Rushuang shrieked immediately after she spotted something had emerged from the ground.

“Ah! Clan master! Why are there so many horrific-looking hands coming out from the ground? So scary!” Mei Ye’s complexion was pale-white from fear.

Other shadow guards and assassins seemed to have also tensed up.

All of a sudden, the several shriveled and pale-white arms and claws emerged from the ground. The claws had dark grey sharp nails which looked truly frightening.

Liu Rushuang’s entire body trembled in fear, but told the shadow guards and assassins behind her, through gritted her teeth, “Fall back to a safe place for now.”

“Clan master, I want to be with you!” Mo Ye said with furrowed brows.

“If I’m not wrong, these dried corpses should be zombies. You all simply can’t kill them! Fall back for now!” Liu Rushuang looked back and told Mo Ye with a deep and resounding voice.

“Yes, milady!” Mo Ye said reluctantly, as he turned around and retreated with the others.

Since the zombies hadn’t yet crawled out of the ground, Liu Rushuang took the opportunity to jump off the horse and hurried to the back.

Soon enough, the zombies started to crawl out from the ground, revealing their grey and white bodies and tattered clothing.

When they saw Liu Rushuang’s fair skin and beauty, standing in front of them, it triggered their hunger for flesh and blood.

Just then, they surrounded Liu Rushuang and launched an attack.

Liu Rushuang conjured up the Flames of the Scorching Era with both hands, as her body gracefully twirled. Her flames rapidly spread all around the wave of zombies and set them on fire.

Sizzzzle...

The zombies disintegrated into the air and quickly disappeared.

The zombies in the back continued to launch at Liu Rushuang.

Liu Rushuang used the same method to quickly put an end to the zombies. From now on, people wouldn’t have to be afraid to enter the Canyon of Hell!
