The temptation is right in front of you and it seems difficult to refuse.
As soon as Lu Yun made a move to bend down, she saw from the corner of her eye a green-black light on Granny Ghost's wrinkled skin.
The only horn on the top of the head is growing slowly.
The length of the ghost's horns represents the strength of the ghost tribe. Before this, the ghost's horns were only as long as the middle finger, but now they are about to reach the length of a palm.
Lu Yun was halfway through the movement when she twisted her body and quickly moved away.
She didn't touch anything on the ground.
At the moment she retreated, someone attacked from behind. The man missed her and headed straight for the Wangchuan Stone on the ground.
It's... Zheng Pan.
Then Zheng Pan, who followed and was hiding nearby, appeared.
The other party's goal is indeed the Wangchuan Stone.
Compared to Lu Yun's caution, Zheng Pan was much bolder. After picking up the Wangchuan Stone, he was not prepared to retreat when facing the ghost granny.
Zheng Pan is fast enough, but there is someone faster.
A white hand, like breaking through the void, reached Zheng Pan's side in an instant and grabbed the other person's arm.
Zheng Pan felt unable to move even if his slender fingers pinched it lightly.
Hiding the horror in his eyes, Zheng Pan looked at the person who came. The moment he saw the other person's face clearly, there was a rare expression on Zheng Pan's face.
She is the daughter of the city lord, Ning Xixue.
However, unlike the Ning Xixue seen by the outside world, the other party's eyes were a little cloudy, and the exposed skin was covered with large dark lines.
Those fire-like lines seemed to grow from the depths of the skin, intertwining into complex patterns on the delicate skin.
Half of it was hidden in the collar, and the other half was spread across Ning Xixue's cheek.
Those lines are like flowing magma, strange and beautiful.
Ning Xixue opened Zheng Pan's hand and took the Wangchuan Stone in her hand.
During the whole process, Zheng Pan obviously wanted to resist, but under that hand, Zheng Pan seemed to be imprisoned and did not make any movement.
It wasn't until Ning Xixue let go of his hand that he retreated to Lu Yun's side in panic.
What he saw when he turned around was beads of sweat on Zheng Pan's forehead.
He moved his pale lips as if he wanted to say something, but the fear remaining in his pupils was destroying Zheng Pan's mind.
Lu Yun was a little confused as to what the other party discovered during that brief contact, and why he was so afraid of being like this.
"hehe."
Grandma Gui seemed not surprised at all by this development.
Her eyes were always on Lu Yun, her malice was like a sticky swamp, trying to imprison her here.
The other party should have discovered that he had a problem a long time ago, but he took the initiative to cooperate with his acting.
However, Lu Yun had no time to take care of the ghost mother-in-law at this moment, because Lu Yun caught a familiar aura on Ning Xixue's body.
That breath comes from... the coffin under the crater.
Now that the matter has come to this, Lu Yun remains vigilant.
In the strange silence, the chain that had been quiet swayed again, with a large amplitude, as if it was disturbed by something, pulling the souls down.
At the same time, human voices appeared below the crater.
"Quickly, stop these chains and make sure the Ghost King cannot be revived."
The anxious shouts came from inside, and Lu Yun looked surprised.
One after another figures appeared below, and Lu Yun discovered that there was actually a very hidden cave in the crater covered by high temperatures.
At the entrance of the cave, there were several people standing.
Before Lu Yun could see who it was, a sword light slashed out from there.
The sharp sword intent shot straight into the sky, carrying unstoppable power.
After the sword intention appeared, Lu Yun's eyes lit up.
This unique golden aura is Meng Lin!
Caused by the sword light, the chains made a clattering sound, and one of them broke. After the bound soul was freed, it followed its own instinct and turned around to leave.
But Granny Ghost is faster.
She pinched the living soul's neck and allowed him to struggle pointlessly.
The horns on the top of Gui Granny's head have reached a complete state, slightly bent backwards, and are as long as a forearm.
A terrifying aura was released from Granny Ghost's body, and her voice was cold and murderous.
"A bunch of mean rats."
This murderous intention is directed at the people below.
The movement above naturally attracted the attention below. Someone came up, a monk in black, holding a long sword with a sword as powerful as a rainbow.
"Little junior sister?"
Meng Lin's cool voice was enough to calm the heat here. Lu Yun looked up at the intact Meng Lin and smiled easily.
"Well, it's me."
As the sword shadow danced, Meng Lin's expression was moved. He appeared beside Lu Yun, his cold outline melting like ice and snow, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"coming?"
"Well, here we come."
Through a simple conversation, the two senior fellow apprentices were able to understand each other's thoughts.
"Fellow Daoist Meng, what is this?"
Figures appeared here one after another. Most of these people were in a sorry state, with burnt holes in their robes.
"My junior sister."
Meng Lin's voice was cold and he didn't mean to say anything more.
"Since there are still people who can come in, can we also go out?"
The speaker's expression became excited, and he looked at Lu Yun eagerly, wishing that Lu Yun would just take her away.
Facing the expectant looks in these people's eyes, Lu Yun shook her head.
"I don't know how to get out."
This is the truth.
She did not see the exit after entering.
"How could this happen? Do we really need to kill the Ghost King?"
Lu Yun's words seemed to cut off the hope of these people, and the atmosphere became anxious. When these people complained to each other, Meng Lin suddenly looked towards the dark night behind him, and Lu Yun also looked over.
"Everyone, you have come, please stay."
"Consider it a congratulatory gift for our king's resurrection."
The rough voice of Granny Ghost seems to hit people's hearts, bringing intense pain.
Footsteps appeared from the darkness.
Ghost tribes came here one after another. They ignored the existence of the monks. After reaching a certain distance, they knelt on the ground piously, like a pilgrim, and knelt down in the direction of the crater.
The remaining chains are faster, and even if the monk uses all his strength, he cannot completely stop it.
"Quick, we must not let the ghost king eat all the living souls."
"Once the ghost father wakes up, none of us can run away."
"Damn, what a bunch of idiots!"
Amidst the shouts and curses, Lu Yun and Meng Lin took action at the same time.
They paid no attention to the chains dancing in the sky, nor did they pay attention to the ghosts who stood up slowly after kowtowing, surging with fighting spirit.
The two of them have the same goal, that is the ghost mother-in-law.
Lu Yun's first sword was taught by Meng Lin, and the tacit understanding between the two was beyond words.
The coolness brought by the white cold river snow offsets the high temperature here. The drifting snowflakes are falling in profusion, turning into mist in the air, and evaporating away in an instant.
In response to the two attacks, Granny Ghost smiled sinisterly. She held a cane and her body became extremely flexible, and she was able to win against two enemies.
As Lu Yun guessed, Gui Granny's identity is not simple, and the opponent's momentum is still rising.
"Kill them!"
Under the cold command, the roar of the ghost tribe submerged the world, and death followed him again. (End of chapter)
