Chapter 292: Call of Doom
Luo Huian looked at Bai Shiliu before saying to her, “Do you think you will be able to do it?”

“Do you have any other option than trusting me?” Bai Shiliu looked at Luo Huian and questioned with a roll of her eyes.

As much as Luo Huian would have smacked the woman with an—Of course, I do—she knew that the truth was that she had no idea how to get rid of these people. The best plan that she had was to rush ahead and punch every single one of them until they were knocked out cold.

But if she were to do that, the one outside would definitely end up getting alarmed. Since Luo Huian could not let such a thing happen, she had no choice but to let Bai Shiliu take charge.

While Luo Huian stayed hidden in the small storeroom, Bai Shiliu stepped out. She waited for the person who was guarding the makeup room to walk away a bit further before jumping up on the metal poles that were combined together to make the stage.

The thug, who had walked a bit further, paused and turned to look behind her. When she saw that no one was standing behind her, she could not help but frown. Just now she felt like someone was standing behind her.

She raised her head to look around, and Bai Shiliu hid further in the darkness. With her skills as an A-rank hunter, it was impossible for the person to catch her. Especially when the thug was just a D-rank hunter.

“What’s the matter?” while the thug was looking around, another man walked over to her and questioned, “Why are you looking around like that?”

“I just thought that there was someone standing behind me,” replied the woman with a furrow between her brows. “But it seems like I am thinking too much.”

“Don’t worry,” the man patted her on the back before saying to her. “You are not the only one; after all, many of us are feeling sensitive with everything that we are doing.”

The woman sighed upon hearing the words of the man. She then raised her head and looked at him before saying, “Do you think Leader Qin is doing the right thing? If we are caught, then I am afraid that the council will execute us all.”

“You don’t have to worry about the council,” the man gritted his teeth upon the mention of the council. “It’s the council that has let us down. We signed up in that new program thinking that we will be given enough food and resources, even the head of the council promised us that we will get a new life and identity after we are done with the program, and look what happened? We were kicked out! After giving so much to the council, they all turned their backs on us.”

“Since that is the case, why should we hold back?”

The man was filled with hatred when he thought about how the council used him and his siblings. They were orphans who did not share any protection with the adults. Thus they were the easiest to convince.

The council asked them to sign a contract and then work hard to collect ores and dungeon beasts for them. In the end?

They worked until they could no longer even raise their hands.

When they started, there were a total of fifty hunters, and when they stopped, not even fifteen were left. All they asked in return was a safe and comfortable life.

But what did the council do? They actually used them as if they were their slaves, and when the matter of compensation was brought up, they kicked them all out with a meagre sum of twenty-five thousand yuan.

They told them, as low-rank hunters, this sum of money was good enough for them to spend for a comfortable life. As if that were possible!

Twenty-five thousand yuan was not even enough to rent a house!

However, no one was willing to listen to a thing that they had to say. Why? Just because they were low-rank hunters?

Hah! Those people would certainly regret doing such a thing to them!

When the woman recalled the careless attitude of the council members when they refused to hand them what they deserved, she gritted her teeth in anger.

Her brother was right. Whatever was coming towards the council, this was what they deserved!

Even if they were to lose their lives after this, the woman did not feel helpless or despaired. In fact, she felt like she was doing something great. As long as she and her siblings were to make a statement today, the council would never treat low-ranking hunters carelessly ever again.

And even if they did, they would remember the things that they have done!

With this thought in her head, the woman suddenly felt emboldened.

She turned to look at the man who stood beside her and questioned, “Is that thing ready?”

“Don’t worry, Sister Qin has taken great efforts to make that flute; As long as the thing works just as depicted in the book Call of Doom, I am sure that these people will not be able to escape.”

Luo Huian, who was hiding in the storeroom, clenched her fingers when he heard the words of the two.

Call of Doom? Wasn’t this the very book that Wei Yuxian asked her to steal?

“Huian…” Xiao Bai looked at Luo Huian worriedly, even Xiao Hei looked at the young woman with concern in his eyes. Though the two of them did not say anything, they knew what Luo Huian was feeling at the moment.

“I am fine,” Luo Huian replied without showing any expression on her face.

However, her complexion was not good. In fact, she looked really pale and troubled.

After all, she knew very well that the book about which the two of them were talking was not a simple book. It was a book that was written by the greatest dark art cultivator.

Back then, she had no idea what kind of book was The Call of Doom.

Luo Huian was not interested in the dark arts or the books in the library. It was only when she stole that book and gave it to Wei Yuxian did she find out what a terrifying book it was.

Inside that book were all kinds of dark arts cultivation methods. From summoning a ghoul to killing people in the cruellest way.

Even the methods to steal one’s luck and soul were written inside that book. It was brought to the sect by Grandma Luo, who killed the dark arts practitioner. That book was sealed away and never saw the light of the day again.

The seal that Grandma Luo placed on that book was one that was impossible to break unless it was opened by the descendents of the Luo family. This was something Wei Yuxian knew, and thus he went ahead and asked Luo Huian to undo the seal.

Back then, Luo Huian did not doubt his words and thought that he was only trying to play a prank, as she was the foolish one to believe and look up at him as if he were her hero.

If she had known that Wei Yuxian was going to betray her, then she would have certainly not believed a single word that came out of his mouth.

However, what was that book doing here? And how in the world did it fall into the hands of these troublemakers?

Luo Huian was confused, but she had no way to receive answers to her questions.

She looked at Bai Shiliu, who was slowly and carefully following the two thugs.

Luo Huian silently hoped that Bai Shiliu would not kill the two of them, as long as they were alive, she was certain that she would get the answers to her questions!

On the other hand, Bai Shiliu had no idea that Luo Huian had placed such high hopes on her shoulders when she was not paying attention.

She climbed over to one side and chased the two thugs until they were standing at the end of the corner.

Fortunately, they didn’t seem to have cottoned onto her presence, or maybe they were simply too confident and thought that no one was going to catch them.

No matter what the reason, Bai Shiliu was glad that the thugs were not paying attention. She rose to her knees and then snapped a few strings of her hair.

She then dropped them on the ground, and the locks, after being ripped off, fell helplessly on the ground.

Down and down they went before coming to a stop, and as soon as the locks of her hair touched the floor, Bai Shiliu’s eyes glinted as she raised her hand and then clenched her fists tightly.

The locks of her hair stirred on the floor before —

“Hey… what?!”

The thugs didn’t even get a chance to let out a shrill yell as they were wrapped up by thin strands of hair from top to bottom.
