Li Yu stared blankly at Jin San, her bewildered expression seemingly flawless and completely genuine.

Seeing Li Yu like this, Kim Sam was speechless.

You know, he's used this ability to assassinate countless people!

Those who saw him in their spiritual sea were either terrified and ran away in panic, or were filled with fear and ultimately fought back desperately.

He had never seen anyone like Li Yu who was completely unaware of what was happening.

It's like they don't understand the important points; they have absolutely no sense of danger.

Just then, Kim Jong-un pointed to himself and said in an icy voice:

"I!"

"today."

"I will take your life in the ways of Zhongzhou!"

However, Li Yu still didn't understand what the Zhongzhou method was, but hearing that the other party was going to take his life in the end, he figured that what they said before probably wasn't anything nice.

As Li Yu pondered this, he slowly raised the crossbow in his hand, the arrowhead pointing at his opponent.

Upon noticing Li Yu's actions, Jin San not only showed no intention of dodging, but instead curled his lips into a disdainful smile, scoffing contemptuously.

"Hmph, you don't actually think you can hit me with that crossbow, do you?"

Before he could finish speaking, Kim Jong-un suddenly stretched out his hands.

In an instant, three white ghosts shot out from his palm.

These three ghostly figures exuded a sinister and chilling aura as they hovered and danced in the air, like phantoms.

They first circled around Kim Sam twice, then came to a steady stop beside him, hovering quietly.

At this moment, Jin Sancai calmly began to introduce these wandering spirits to Li Yu:

"This is a ghost from the Central Plains."

"Now that you've joined the Central Plains camp, you must have already met them."

As Kim Sam looked at the wandering ghosts around him, his mind was filled with turbulent thoughts, and he recalled some past events.

He asked Li Yu with unusual seriousness:

"Have you ever thought about this: if Zhongzhou truly represents justice, then why are the ghosts born there?"

"Was choosing to join Zhongzhou the right decision?"

"And why would we unite against the powerful Central Continent?"

Looking at Li Yu's questioning eyes, Jin San felt a surge of helplessness. He didn't say anything more, but simply comforted her softly:

"But you need not be afraid. I will transform you into a ghost and make you a member of the resistance against Zhongzhou!"

"Did you understand this time?" After saying that, Kim San even looked at Li Yu with a hint of pity on his face.

Looking at the three ghostly figures floating around Jin San, Li Yu secretly speculated that this must be the source of his arrogance.

However, when Li Yu saw the ghost again, he was surprisingly calm, just like Jin San had been earlier.

However, the crossbow in his hand was already aimed at the ghosts released by Kim Sam.

Kim Jong-un remained completely unaware that a giant eye was silently watching everything happening below him from not far above.

The Nightmare Beast did not obstruct or interfere with Jin San's mental intrusion from beginning to end; it simply floated quietly in the air, seemingly contemplating something.

As an extremely rare and highly intelligent beast, how could it possibly be willing to be controlled by Li Yu for its entire life?

Upon hearing what Jin San said, a glimmer of hope for breaking free from its restraints and regaining its freedom suddenly flashed deep within the Nightmare Beast's enormous eyes.

It seemed to see a glimmer of hope for escape, and kept replaying those words in its mind.

"Wraiths were born in the Central Plains!"

As far as it knew, Li Yu had only just entered Zhongzhou. Presumably, as Li Yu ventured deeper into Zhongzhou, the number of ghosts he would encounter would increase day by day.

Having grasped this crucial information, the Nightmare Beast turned its gaze back to the three ghostly figures beside Jin San, a brilliant idea budding within it to extricate itself from its predicament as quickly as possible—

Voluntarily help Li Yu kill the ghost!

After all, with each successful slaying of a ghost, the energy it can absorb and gather becomes stronger, bringing it one step closer to completely breaking free and regaining its freedom.

Below the Nightmare Beast.

As Li Yu finished aiming, the crossbow in his hand flashed with a cold light, ready to fire.

Kim Jong-un across from him sneered again, his face full of disdain, and said:

"You're not planning to shoot the ghosts, are you?" Kim Jong-un continued with a laugh.

“A ghost is a pure spirit. No matter how powerful your bow and crossbow are, they are still just ordinary physical attacks.”

At this point, Kim Jong-un paused, and even said with a hint of self-deprecation:

"I'm not going to explain all this to a refugee like you. Even if it's such a simple principle, I'm afraid you still won't understand even if I talk myself hoarse."

"Heh, what a pity~" He chuckled coldly, shook his head, and sighed.

"We are from two different worlds."

However, Li Yu seemed to ignore Kim Jong-un's sarcastic remarks.

As soon as it was aimed at Kim Jong-un, the eye on the crossbow snapped open, emitting a chilling light.

At the same time, the Nightmare Beast floating above the Sea of ​​Spirituality knew it was time for it to make its move.

"I'm here to help you!" the Nightmare Beast deliberately shouted in Li Yu's mental sea.

Along with this sound, a giant black eye suddenly descended from the sky.

The giant eye suddenly glared, and with just a sharp look, it froze the three wandering ghosts in place!

Kim Jong-un looked up and was immediately taken aback when he saw the giant eye in the sky, his face filled with astonishment.

"Nightmare Beast?"

"It's a Nightmare Beast!"

Kim Jong-un's eyes widened, his voice trembling:

"You...you actually dared to use your own mental power to raise a Nightmare Beast! Aren't you afraid of death?"

Jin San kept talking, unconsciously shaking his head.

He knew all too well how terrifying the Nightmare Beast was; it was a horrible creature that could devour a human's spirit, and one could be cursed to death if one was not careful.

"Even someone with extremely strong mental strength would die within two days after being cursed by a Nightmare Beast. How could you withstand it for so long?"

"No wonder your mental space is so large. Could you be a mental awakener?" Jin San muttered to himself.

"No!" He quickly dismissed the idea.

His gaze suddenly fell on the crossbow in Li Yu's hand, and he immediately realized what was going on.

"You could kill Jin Shijie, who has defensive abilities, with a single arrow, and with such great power, you absolutely cannot be a mental awakener."

Jin San looked at Li Yu, who seemed unaffected, and was somewhat incredulous, not understanding how Li Yu had survived the Nightmare Beast's curse.

Li Yu didn't bother with any nonsense with Kim Jong-un and immediately shot an arrow.

"call out--"

With a loud "bang!"

In an instant, the three immobile ghosts exploded, turning into three clouds of white mist that spread outwards.
