The moment Mu Chen laid eyes on the black book, he felt a terrifying Spiritual Power emanating from it. Qing Lei, of course, sensed it as well. His eyes were locked onto the book, his body was tense, and beads of sweat dotted his pale face.
Mu Chen's expression hardened. He asked, "Mo Qing, where did you get this book?"
Mo Qing was taken aback. She looked at Mu Chen and Qing Lei in confusion and said, "What's wrong with this book? I think I got it last year from an old man in black while I was traveling with my fath... Father. He said it contained some very interesting stories..."
Mu Chen shook his head. "Mo Qing, listen to me. This book is definitely not a good thing. Keeping it with you will only lead to unimaginable disaster."
Startled by Mu Chen's words, Mo Qing hastily threw the book to the ground. "I... I really didn't know," she said in a panic. "Is... is this black book cursed or something?"
