Su Xiaoniu complained: "You...ah, there's nothing we can do. Let's save people first."
Don’t care about your soul anymore?
My soul will be fine for now, save people first!
All right!
After I applied the cleansing spell to Feng Ling, she became motionless like a wooden man. I went over to help her up and then tore off the spell. Only then did I see Feng Ling, her face horrified, saying, "Finally, we're saved! The boatman is over there!"
Following the direction of her finger, I saw the boatman standing with a group of men and women in various clothing, including Qiao Xiaomu. I was about to run over to save them when dozens of male and female ghosts suddenly rushed towards me. They were like zombies, their faces pale and expressionless, their bodies stiff, their hair disheveled, and their eyes dull. They attacked me.
I slashed forward with the Seven Star Sword, and three or two ghosts were annihilated. Then another group of fearless ghosts rushed towards me. There were at least several hundred ghosts in total. When they saw me attack, they immediately surrounded me.
On a distant old branch, the Ghost Master chuckled with a ferocious expression, "I didn't expect you to be so reluctant. It seems you're truly fearless of death... You've disrupted the Ghost King Ceremony once again, and violated the 'Ghost Covenant.' You've already been cited for three Yin sins in the Netherworld's Penal Book. Even if you could take them away, you'd be dead soon."
My arm, gripping the Seven Star Sword, trembled slightly. Three Yin sins already? This meant the Ghost Messenger would be coming for me soon. Was I going to die soon? I shook my head. Now that things had come to this, I might as well do it once and for all!
I took a deep breath, swung my sword, and killed several ghosts that rushed towards me. They rushed towards me from all directions, left, right, and back. I held the Seven Star Sword tightly in my hand, and when they rushed in front of me, I rushed forward and struck them with a fierce sword.
Aww! The screams continued to ring out in the empty woods.
Every time a ghost disappeared, the blood on the sword would fade. After a moment, the sword returned to its original smoothness. Although it could still chop these little ghosts into ashes, it was not as clean and decisive as it was after being stained with blood! It was rough!
Moreover, countless ghosts kept pouring out from the corpse-digging ground, as if they were endless. No matter how much blood I had, it would be drained by them. This was not a solution. I could only fight my way out and rushed to the boatman and his men with Feng Ling. I first put a cleansing talisman on the boatman, and then tore it off.
The boatman immediately came to his senses and said, "Use the Golden Light Magic Mantra to eliminate these little ghosts in one fell swoop!"
I shook my head and said no. If I used the Golden Light Mantra, Su Xiaoniu's spirit would be destroyed as well. I wanted to use the Purification Mantra on the others, but the boatman stopped me. "Many of them have had their yang energy sucked out of them, and their minds are completely lost. Even using the Purification Mantra won't be effective. Unless you can have the 'Ghost King' in the sedan chair bewitching their spirits, and then you can take her away, these people will be drawn here... But then, these little ghosts will follow too, and it will become quite troublesome. But this is the only way."
"Since this is the only way, there is no need to hesitate!" I asked the boatman and Feng Ling to go ahead while there was chaos to prepare the boat, while I turned around and rushed into the group of little ghosts, rushing straight to the ghost sedan of the underworld.
Su Xiaoniu's soul sat expressionlessly in the sedan chair, staring blankly at me. Her soul was extremely important to her, and I couldn't hurt it. But it was only her soul; even if I spoke to it, it wouldn't respond. I asked Su Xiaoniu what I could do to make her soul obey me.
Su Xiaoniu said, "The simplest and quickest method is to blow a breath of Yang Qi into her mouth and at the same time send what you want to say into it. This way it will reach her consciousness. This is my soul. In my subconscious, I am on your side. As long as she hears your voice and it reaches her, she will definitely succeed."
I nodded, and before the ghosts could get close to me, I suddenly moved closer to Po's lips, and while blowing air into her, I also sent what I wanted to say into her...
Soon, Su Xiaoniu's brows trembled, she stood up, and waved to the living people in the distance, and then saw those living people moving one by one and walking towards this side.
At this time, the little ghosts from all directions had rushed in front of me. When they were about to attack me, Su Xiaoniu's eyes suddenly changed, her black hair flew, and her scarlet eyes swept towards them. If looks could kill, these little ghosts would probably have been turned to ashes.
Woo woo woo... Hundreds of little ghosts let out low growls of fear and retreated away.
This is the deterrent power of the "Ghost King"!
