Unable to contact the underworld, Li Muhao simply poured all the spiritual power he had accumulated into the calligraphy brush artifact. Then, with one hand forming a hand seal, the calligraphy brush artifact quickly wrote the character "人" (person) in the void.
"Humans and ghosts are on different paths; the key lies in humanity!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed continuously at the tip of the pen, leaving a faint golden trace in the void.
Li Qichen was unaware that Li Muhao could also cast spells. He had originally planned to have the unlucky guy hold Gao Kexin back while Xiang Yibai and Xiao Yanbao made their move.
As the character "人" (person) took shape, Li Muhao's face visibly turned pale.
"go!"
The golden light swiftly struck Gao Kexin, who had a smiling face. In an instant, the pale golden "人" character turned into a dazzling golden light and swallowed Gao Kexin whole.
It's done?
Seeing Gao Kexin being devoured by his magic, Li Muhao felt a surge of joy, while Li Qichen behind him was also filled with delight.
Even the unlucky guy looked at Li Muhao in surprise, and then focused his gaze on the golden light.
Just when the two humans and the ghost thought they had successfully dealt with Gao Kexin, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice appeared from within the golden light.
"This tastes so familiar! I never knew you were such a little genius, little brother!"
As a sweet yet cool voice rang out, a slender finger slowly emerged from the golden light, and then Gao Kexin walked out of the golden light with a smile.
"Thank you! Since you helped me regain my memories, I'll give you a quick death in a bit!"
Gao Kexin chuckled again, looking with interest at the unlucky guy squatting on Li Qichen's shoulder. With a light tap of her jade hand, a dark silk thread shot out from her hand, and the unlucky guy was tied up before he could react.
"Hey there, old man, how come you're still so ugly? Hehe!"
The unlucky fellow wanted to argue, but the black threads on his body seemed to restrict all his movements, and he could only let out a few symbolic groans.
Li Muhao bit his tongue, trying to activate the calligraphy brush artifact again, but his spiritual energy was already exhausted. The tip of the calligraphy brush artifact only flickered a few times and then there was no further movement.
Gao Kexin darted forward and grabbed Li Muhao's calligraphy brush artifact. Before Li Muhao could react, Gao Kexin had snatched the artifact away.
Seeing that Gao Kexin was able to hold the calligraphy brush in her hand, Li Muhao and the unlucky guy's expressions changed again and again, and even the unlucky guy's face showed a look of fear.
It should be known that the magical artifacts of the underworld's ghost messengers are like natural enemies to ghosts and monsters. Even the most powerful evil ghosts cannot grasp the ghost messengers' magical artifacts without getting hurt.
What is Gao Kexin now? An existence beyond evil spirits? Even the unlucky ghost has never heard of such a level of existence.
Gao Kexin tried to channel the ghostly energy within her body into the calligraphy brush artifact, but found that the ghostly energy vanished without a trace after entering the artifact.
Seeing that she couldn't use the ghost messenger's magic weapon, Gao Kexin wrinkled her nose slightly, bit her lip, and tried to pry the calligraphy brush magic weapon. As Gao Kexin exerted force, Li Muhao, who was in sync with the calligraphy brush magic weapon, couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
Then, a faint trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and in the next moment, Gao Kexin broke the calligraphy brush artifact in two.
"you……"
Li Muhao only managed to utter one word before swaying and falling backward. Li Qichen, who was standing behind him, quickly caught him in his arms.
Li Muhao's face was ashen, and he had fallen into a coma. Although Li Qichen could see ghosts, he was still a mortal without any spiritual power.
Seeing Gao Kexin about to step forward, Li Qichen immediately stepped forward and blocked her way.
Who exactly are you?
"Me? Gao Kexin!"
After saying this, Gao Kexin laughed wildly. She had already used her soul poison to knock most of the people unconscious. Now, as long as she killed the mortal in front of her, Xiao Yanbao upstairs, and that girl with some abilities, she would become the new master of the Li family.
With the power of the Li family, I estimate I can quickly gather all the fragments of that item. Then, without the Ghost King of the Underworld searching for me, I will re-enter the Underworld and have a good talk with the person who is about to become the Lord of the Underworld.
Becoming a new Ghost King shouldn't be too difficult. If any ghosts are dissatisfied, just devour them.
Standing on the second floor, Xiang Yibai and Xiao Yanbao saw that Li Muhao couldn't stop Gao Kexin at all. Xiang Yibai, who was originally assisting Xiao Yanbao, raised his hand and summoned the blue spear.
"Sister Yibai, go ahead, it'll be ready soon!"
After Xiao Yanbao finished speaking, he nodded vigorously to Yi Bai, climbed over the window, and charged directly at Gao Kexin with his long spear in hand.
"You just need to hold her off for five minutes!"
Xiao Yanbao was worried that Xiang Yibai might impulsively fight the demonized Gao Kexin head-on, so she gave him a word of advice, but Xiang Yibai seemed not to hear her.
With a face full of frost, he stabbed at Gao Kexin, but Gao Kexin just quietly watched Xiang Yibai rushing towards her, seeing that she was about to succeed.
Instead of joy, Xiang Yibai's face grew increasingly solemn, and his forward momentum subtly diminished by three points.
As expected, when the spear tip pierced Gao Kexin, it was directly blocked by the ghostly aura surrounding Gao Kexin's body. Upon seeing this, Xiang Yibai immediately retreated rapidly, but the tip of the blue spear was already in Gao Kexin's hand.
"The taste of Longhu Mountain, what is your relationship with that old Taoist priest?"
Xiang Yibai knew that the "old Taoist" Gao Kexin was referring to was her father, but she didn't want to answer Gao Kexin's question. Instead, she used all her strength to try to pull back the tip of the gun that Gao Kexin was holding.
Seeing that the other party not only did not answer her question, but also tried to pull back his spear, Gao Kexin frowned and looked at Xiang Yibai's face, and then seemed to have figured something out.
"Hehe, so you're that guy's daughter? No wonder, didn't your father tell you not to act rashly?"
Upon hearing Gao Kexin's words, Xiang Yibai's face immediately showed anger. Could it be that his father and the powerful evil spirit in front of him were old acquaintances?
That damned old Taoist priest! He actually didn't take this guy down. If I manage to get back alive this time, I'll definitely settle the score with him!
Seemingly sensing his beloved daughter's complaint, the Celestial Master, who had just left Longhu Mountain, suddenly sneezed, reached out to Da Hu to rub his nose, and silently complained to himself:
"That brat must be talking about me. Wait till I see you, I'll give you a good beating."
He then reached into his backpack and stuffed the handkerchief he used to wipe his nose into it. It seemed that there were too many miscellaneous items in the backpack, because Xiang Dahu did not see Xiang Yibai's distress signal.
Only the jade pendant used to receive emergency distress signals lay alone in the backpack stuffed with miscellaneous items, weakly flashing a faint red light.
If this jade pendant had a mind of its own, it would definitely want to escape from this antagonistic father and daughter. If it doesn't care about me, why did it even make me?
If you don't notice my warning soon, I'll run out of power, and you won't even know your daughter is dead!
