Rebirth of the Innkeeper's Wife: She's Not to Be Messed With

Chapter 183 Yellowed Ancient Books

However, she did not forget her original purpose, and took advantage of the break to shout loudly at the white-clad boy.

Why are you doing everything you can to stop us? What unspeakable secret is hidden inside this secret room?

However, the white-clad youth seemed completely unmoved by Huan Yuechu's questioning.

Instead, he continued to command the group of monsters to intensify their attacks, seemingly determined to kill these intruders.

On the other side, sunlight filters through dappled leaves into a study in the old building, creating patterns of light and shadow.

Mu Yang searched carefully alone in the old library, his fingers gently brushing against the dusty bookshelves.

Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to a yellowed ancient book in the corner.

He carefully picked up the ancient book and gently blew away the dust on its surface.

When he turned the pages, a startling passage came into view—it detailed a long-ago story.

Legend has it that long, long ago, there was a group of people dressed in black robes and whose whereabouts were mysterious.

They harbored wicked intentions, attempting to summon incredibly powerful ancient monsters through some mysterious method, thereby controlling the entire world and forcing everyone to submit to them.

These men in black robes were plotting something extremely sinister; they secretly prepared everything and meticulously planned every detail.

But justice will prevail in the end, and despite their best efforts, their evil plan ultimately failed.

However, the storm did not subside, but left behind many hidden dangers that are difficult to eliminate.

At that moment, Mu Yang's heart trembled, and the ancient legend involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

He couldn't help but wonder to himself, "Could it be that all the strange things I'm encountering now are somehow connected to the actions of those black-robed men back then?"

Filled with doubt and unease, Mu Yang quickened his pace as he flipped through the documents in his hand.

As my gaze moved rapidly, lines of text came into view.

Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on a crucial description—it turned out that the place where the group of black-robed men held their final summoning ritual was actually where they were now!

Even more surprisingly, the white-clad youth whose identity has remained unknown may very well be the one tasked with protecting this land and preventing the resurgence of evil forces.

Thinking of this, Mu Yang felt a heaviness in his heart.

Furthermore, the information also mentions that there is a highly secret mechanism hidden within this deeply concealed secret room.

If someone accidentally triggers it, it will instantly release the evil thoughts that have been sealed away for a long time and remain in the world.

These evil thoughts are extremely corrosive, easily influencing the surrounding creatures, causing them to lose their minds and become cruel and ruthless killing tools.

However, what is chilling is that nowadays there are some people with ill intentions.

They are attempting to restart that terrifying plan that once struck fear into the hearts of countless people!

This is undoubtedly a sign that a huge disaster is about to befall humanity.

Upon hearing this news, Mu Yang felt a sudden pang in his heart, and a chill instantly rose up his spine.

He knew that this matter was of utmost importance, and if he could not stop those people's conspiracy from succeeding in time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore, he dared not delay any longer and hurriedly gathered up the ancient book that contained important clues.

Then, like an arrow released from a bow, he dashed off towards the place he and Huan Yuechu had agreed upon beforehand.

Throughout the journey, Mu Yang was anxious and his heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of his chest.

All he could think about was flying to Huan Yuechu's side as soon as possible and telling her about his amazing discovery.

With each step he took, time seemed to drag on endlessly, and he wished he could sprout wings and instantly reach his destination.

After a frantic drive, Mu Yang finally arrived at their agreed meeting place, completely out of breath.

But when he looked closely, the scene before him left him speechless and completely stunned.

It turns out that Huan Yuechu was currently surrounded by a large group of ferocious and vicious monsters, and her situation was extremely dangerous.

These monsters all had ferocious faces, bared fangs, and emitted a nauseating stench.

They bared their fangs and claws and pounced on Huan Yuechu with fierce and ruthless attacks.

Although Huan Yuechu was highly skilled, he was no match for such a large number of powerful enemies.

Under the relentless onslaught of the demonic beasts, she began to struggle and become increasingly disheveled.

Large beads of sweat kept sliding down her forehead, soaking her beautiful hair.

Her originally agile and light movements gradually slowed down, clearly indicating that she was at her limit and her strength was gradually failing, revealing obvious signs of fatigue.

Huan Yuechu was intently watching her surroundings when suddenly a sharp whooshing sound rang out.

Startled, she turned around abruptly and saw an ancient book, exuding a rustic aura, hurtling towards her like a shooting star.

Without the slightest hesitation, Huan Yuechu stretched out her right hand and caught it steadily like lightning.

However, just as she grasped the ancient book, her gaze inadvertently swept over the cover.

When those large, flamboyant characters came into view, her face turned deathly pale, as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

At this moment, the monsters that had been eyeing him with predatory intent were slightly distracted by Mu Yang's sudden appearance.

This fleeting opportunity was nothing short of a lifeline for Huan Yuechu, who was in dire straits.

Knowing that the opportunity was fleeting, she gritted her teeth, tensed all her muscles, and gathered all her strength into her hands.

With a roar, Huan Yuechu used all her strength to suddenly exert force forward.

With a loud "bang," she actually broke through the monsters' tight encirclement.

Immediately afterwards, she flashed away like a ghost, rushing swiftly towards the mysterious boy.

In the blink of an eye, they were already in front of the boy.

Huan Yuechu gripped the ancient book tightly in her hand, her beautiful eyes fixed on the young man before her, a sharp light flashing in them, as she questioned him without any politeness.

"What exactly is this thing? Why is it here?"

Faced with Huan Yuechu's aggressive questioning, the boy was slightly taken aback, a look of surprise on his face, but he quickly regained his composure and remained silent.

For a moment, the two stood facing each other, neither speaking first.

The air around them seemed to freeze at that moment; the entire scene was so quiet it was suffocating, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Huan Yue saw that the other party still refused to respond to her, and knew that this stalemate could not continue.

After a moment's thought, she decided to change her strategy.
