Volume Two: Critical Moment with Fierce Fangs and Claws! Chapter 144



Are we just going to do nothing?

This was quite unexpected; I never imagined it would be this answer.

Don't I belong here?

It seems the advisor once said that he might also know something.

However, I don't think my advisor would tell me. After all, I am also a Taoist, so I naturally know about cause and effect.

This time, the advisor had already touched upon cause and effect by using the tracking method, but since it wasn't pointed out, nothing happened.

I don't want my advisor to suffer things he shouldn't have to because of me.

Stepping out of the house, the neighborhood was unusually quiet.

It was late at night, and I was walking aimlessly by the roadside. This scene was familiar, but I had forgotten when the same thing had happened before.

Silence, stillness

It's as if this is all the world has given me.

I looked around, trying to see if there were any ghosts or monsters, but in the end I just smiled bitterly. It's not that easy to encounter a ghost.

"It seems you really have some guts, daring to walk alone on the street."

A woman's voice entered my mind!

The voice sounded familiar; it seemed like I'd heard it somewhere before.

Turning my head, I suddenly widened my eyes. Behind me was none other than Ghost King Yun Si, who had been seriously injured by Chairman Fang and escaped that day!

I immediately went on guard and suddenly activated the Golden Light Spell. Unfortunately, I hadn't brought my bronze sword with me this time.

This late-night run was a spur-of-the-moment decision; I never expected to encounter any situation so late, so I simply wore my own casual clothes.

Even the talismans were left inside my Taoist robe. I was a little annoyed, and at the same time, I felt that my luck was really bad.

"Hey, pretty girl, aren't you bored shopping here all by yourself?"

"Or are you waiting for me to come along?"

“Since that day, I’ve also investigated some of your backgrounds and found out that you have some connection with that guy Zishu. I heard that it was because of him that you started to become a Taoist priest.”

"How interesting. It seems that the Rat has really given us some trouble."

"I haven't seen that guy for quite a while now. He must be dead by now, right?"

What do you think?

Yun Si's eyes were full of aggression, her tone was clearly provocative, and there was even a hint of arrogance in it.

I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. I knew Yun Si's strength all too well. Even Senior Jiang couldn't defeat her back then, so her strength must be far above mine.

Even if I were armed, I might not be her match. Moreover, I am currently empty-handed. If I were to fight this ghost king in front of me, I would probably not gain any advantage whatsoever.

My mind raced, trying to figure out a way to escape unscathed in this situation.

But when I think of Wu Shi again, I feel inexplicably angry!

It was because of them that Wu Shi became the way he was, and this guy in front of me bears an unshirkable responsibility!

Immediately, I dismissed the thought of running away and stared at her coldly:

"You want to fight me here, don't you?"

"I may not be your match, but today, I will not run away!"

"Today, one of us must disappear from this world!"

But Yun Si, as if she had heard a joke, pointed at me and said, "You?!"

Those three short words almost trampled my dignity underfoot.

I clenched my fist and practically spat out the four words through gritted teeth: "Yes! Me!"

"Little Flame!"

I felt the energy emanating from my arm; the flames had already adhered to it. This time, there was no other way but to fight it head-on.

In this situation, it's impossible to escape or call for help. The other side doesn't know much about my general strength, so I can take advantage of the information gap to launch a surprise attack!

I charged towards Yunsi and threw a punch at her face.

Yun Si didn't move at all, quietly waiting for me to approach her. Just when I thought I could hit her with this punch, I felt my arm being firmly grabbed!

My pupils widened suddenly: "How is this possible!"

It should be noted that Xiao Yan has an absolute restraint over spirits; even a tiny bit of her presence can cause ghosts unbearable pain.

But at that moment, my fist was tightly gripped by the other party, and I could not move forward even an inch.

An overwhelming sense of horror enveloped my heart, and a feeling of crisis inexplicably arose within me!

This guy... is beyond my capabilities.

Yun Si still had a playful expression on her face, but remained calm and composed in the face of my attacks.

He glanced at my fist, which was suspended in mid-air, and made a clicking sound:

"Tsk tsk tsk, so this is the determination you have to stand against me?"

"It really does feel like kids fighting, but I quite enjoy it."

"You know, last time at your association, there was a girl about your age with the same look in her eyes, yes! Just like your expression!"

"Haha, this makes me so excited!"

Of course I knew she was referring to Qiu Yun.

Mentioning Qiu Yun immediately brings to mind the bloody image of her arms being severed and hanging on the wall.

I couldn't help but grit my teeth and tighten my grip. At that moment, I really wanted to punch Yun Si in front of me!

"However, her fate wasn't so good."

"Your fists are just like hers, weak and powerless. Your Taoist Association is really something, sending kids your age out to die. You've really gone to great lengths!"
