Dragon Tamer-Chapter 295 - 296 Don’t Lie
Chapter 295: Chapter 296 Don’t Lie
Before leaving, Zhu Minglang didn’t forget about the Soul Collecting Pearl Brewing.
The value of these Mourning Dragons’ Soul Beads would not be inferior to the gemstones flowing in the river. After all, he was hired to come here, and now that he had eliminated all the Mourning Dragons in the area, he should receive a substantial reward!
Moreover, he had taken care of the manipulator behind the Mourning Dragons as well.
Hurriedly leaving Pear Blossom Gully, Zhu Minglang realized that this place wasn’t as simple as it seemed, especially considering the existence of the Yin Spirit Necromancer clan, which was likely ancient, strange, mysterious, and extremely powerful.
Who knows what kind of death demons or devils were raised in those unkempt villages deep within Pear Blossom Gully? Just the two gatekeeping Yin Spirit Necromancer father and son almost caused them to stumble!
“Why didn’t I notice anything wrong when I came here before?” Hu Bailing said with a lingering fear in her heart.
“Pear Blossom Gully wasn’t like this before. Although the villagers all served the Yin Spirit Necromancers and took pride in them, I don’t know when exactly, but the village stopped burying the dead in the ground and didn’t dispose of their deceased kin. Instead, they handed them over to the Yin Spirit Necromancers, who made them seem as though they were still alive…” the young Yin Spirit Necromancer girl, Mistress Ruoshuo, said.
When she was very young, Pear Blossom Gully was just Pear Blossom Gully.
Even though everyone knew about the Yin Spirit Necromancers and took pride in them, Pear Blossom Gully was as peaceful, prosperous, and harmonious as the outside world said it was.
But in these years, it had completely degenerated.
The dead, controlled by the Yin Spirit Necromancers, were stuffed into the First Village, Second Village, and Third Village like living dead, just like houses of the living dead.
Later on, some Yin Spirit Necromancers could communicate with the Mourning Dragons, which led to the appearance of Mourning Dragon Yin Spirit Necromancers.
These Necromancers were ambitious and often went out “hunting.”
Every time they hunted, they brought back countless fresh corpses, providing materials for other Yin Spirit Necromancers to refine. Grandmother Master Shi Hua stood up to oppose them. She believed that the Yin Spirit Necromancers should not be a cult of the dead, nor should they rely on Mourning Dragons to commit violent acts to grow stronger…
But it was all in vain.

Pear Blossom Gully was indeed a Yin Spirit Necromancer village, and it was once peaceful and harmonious. Even if outsiders came, the villagers would warmly welcome them, but now it had completely turned into a demonic cult!
“Grandmother opposed them but died because of the struggle. I’ve always wanted to leave, but the tribal elders feared I would reveal the secrets of our clan, so they trapped me in Stone Village,” the Yin Spirit Necromancer girl said.
“So the rescue missions posted to the outside world are actually a trap?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“Yes, the Song Family father and son are in charge of the First Village. They want to get more living people to feed the Mourning Dragons, so they issued a call for help to the outside world, claiming that the water source was contaminated, and we needed to deliver water. Before you, several teams had already died using this pretext. I used the yin civilians to try to stop you from entering the village, but you forced your way in anyway. After that, Song Luo kept an eye on me, and I didn’t dare to talk to you about it,” the young Yin Spirit Necromancer girl, Mistress Ruoshuo, said.
Song Luo and Song Xunshan, this father and son were wicked to the extreme!
They issued a huge commission to the outside world and generously offered bags and bags of gemstones to those who came to Pear Blossom Gully to bring water to the so-called Second Village that was short of water.
In reality, delivering water meant delivering death.
They raised the Mourning Dragons in Stone Village, and the dragons didn’t even need to look for living people; they just had to quietly wait for the deceived to fall into their mouths…
The Mourning Dragons were malicious and tricky, possessing various abilities to bewitch and hunt living people, but they weren’t even a tenth as ruthless as this Song Family Yin Spirit Necromancer father and son!!
In this world,
The perils are enough to leave one terrified in retrospect.
If their strength had been slightly weaker, or if they hadn’t uncovered the patterns and secrets of the Mourning Dragons, it would have been very difficult for them to leave Yin Spirit Village alive!
Dawn broke.
Pear Blossom Gully gradually vanished below the horizon as their party pressed on toward Runyu City without rest.
Although Runyu City was a land of chaos, filled with warfare and strife, it was far less terrifying than the Yin Spirit Village of Pear Blossom Gully.
These kinds of magic sects must ultimately be dealt with by the combined forces of the major powers. Unfortunately, the Godly Mortal Academy, which governed this area, seemed completely unaware of the existence of the Yin Spirit Necromancer tribe in Pear Blossom Gully, let alone the Mourning Dragon tide that was currently being stirred up by those capable of communicating with the Mourning Dragons.
Zhu Minglang felt it was necessary to inform the Godly Mortal Academy about this matter.
However, the Yin Spirit Necromancer girl, Mistress Ruoshuo, also indicated that the other villages in Pear Blossom Gully were very well-hidden, especially the sixth and the Seventh Camps, which even she, a member of the tribe, had never visited.
The terrain of Pear Blossom Gully was complex, and with all the major villages arranged in a Long Snake Defense, outsiders could at most see the First Village and the Second Village. Other villages were simply unfindable.
Even if the Godly Mortal Academy launched a major campaign, they wouldn’t achieve much upon entering Pear Blossom Gully.
Back in Runyu City, Zhu Minglang for a time didn’t know how to handle the Yin Spirit Necromancer girl.
Li Xinghua meant to keep her close by, so Zhu Minglang could only settle her in his residence for now. The Godly Mortal Academy wouldn’t mobilize based on one side’s story; she would be the best witness.
“Your clansmen haven’t seen your body; they will surely keep searching. For now, let’s give you a new name,” Li Xinghua said to the girl with light purple eyes.
“Yes, Yes!” The Yin Spirit Necromancer girl nodded eagerly; she had long wished to break free from the Yin Spirit Village.
Once in Runyu City, the girl was like a curious little deer—for her, this was the first encounter with the outside world, especially since Yin Spirit Village was filled with those shadowy figures. She had hardly ever been in the world of the living!
Even just sitting at the doorway, watching the bustling crowds on the streets of Runyu City, was a delightful pleasure for her.
Li Xinghua glanced at the girl squatting at the doorway, silly and happy watching the human hustle, then looked at the lush green willow branches and said with a light smile, “Zhi Rou, let’s call you Zhi Rou.”
“Sister Li, I like this name,” the Yin Spirit Necromancer girl said, blooming into a smile, brilliant as pear blossoms.
“Don’t tell lies from now on. One lie requires ten more to cover it up…” Li Xinghua looked at her, speaking softly but with a serious and earnest tone.
The smile on the Yin Spirit Necromancer girl’s face slowly lost its warmth.
“I’ll forgive you because you’re young, but whether you choose to completely break with the past or continue your misdeeds in a new place is up to you,” Li Xinghua continued.
The girl looked at this seemingly gentle sister, her face showing a hint of panic that wasn’t feigned.
“I… I…”
“Don’t lie,” Li Xinghua repeated.
“I… won’t dare anymore!” The Yin Spirit Necromancer girl became visibly nervous.
“Every life deserves respect.”
The Yin Spirit Necromancer girl bit her lip tightly.
She could deceive everyone, but she couldn’t deceive a Prophet.
