As he passed by the female ghost, she suddenly raised her head. Her eyes, which had no pupils, her nose that had been cut off, and her mouth that looked like a rag doll that had been sewn together startled Shen Ye.
Shen Ye was terrified. He lost his balance and almost tumbled down the slope. Luckily, Bai Xuan was holding him, otherwise he would have surely died if he had fallen down there.
Although the female ghost had no eyes, Shen Ye could still feel her hungry gaze. Bai Xuan noticed Shen Ye's abnormality, squeezed his hand, and signaled him to hurry up and leave.
Upon receiving the signal, Shen Ye didn't linger and stubbornly ignored the female ghost beside him, continuing to walk forward.
"ah......!"
A shrill scream suddenly came from behind. Shen Ye turned around and saw that the female ghost had gotten up from the ground, her hands were smoking as if they had been charred.
Shen Ye looked at Bai Xuan with a puzzled expression, only to see him shake his head, indicating that he didn't know what was going on either.
The female ghost was unwilling to give up and charged at her again.
This time, Shen Ye clearly saw that when the female ghost approached, a golden light emanated from Bai Xuan and sent her flying.
Bai Xuan also saw this scene and seemed to understand something. He immediately took out a piece of jade from his neck.
"It must have been this Zhong Kui jade that sent the female ghost flying."
"Yes, it must be. She's afraid of this jade." Shen Ye said, looking at the female ghost who had been knocked away.
The female ghost couldn't get close to Bai Xuan, and her empty eye sockets turned to Shen Ye, seemingly looking at him.
Suddenly, the female ghost flew toward Shen Ye at an extremely fast speed. Bai Xuan reacted quickly, took the Zhong Kui jade from her neck and stuffed it into Shen Ye's hand.
Upon seeing this, the female ghost curled her sewn-up lips into a sinister smile and changed direction, rushing towards Bai Xuan.
But the female ghost didn't do anything. Shen Ye glanced at her strangely and discovered something very odd.
Bai Xuan's eyes rolled back, and his forehead turned somewhat dark. He seemed to have completely lost consciousness as he pulled Shen Ye down the slope.
His strength suddenly increased dramatically, and Shen Ye couldn't pull him away, so he had to drag her along. At the same time, he roared, "Ye, we'll be together even if we die!"
He walked slowly, like a robot, his movements mechanical. The slope wasn't steep, but below was a sheer cliff. If he lost his footing and tripped, he would surely tumble down the cliff.
Shen Ye pressed the Zhong Kui jade in his hand onto Bai Xuan's body, but there was no reaction. He then pressed it onto Bai Xuan's forehead, but there was still no reaction.
Seeing that Bai Xuan was about to drag him to the edge of the cliff, Shen Ye didn't care about anything else and struggled desperately to stay. In this situation, Shen Ye didn't want to die, but Bai Xuan was incredibly strong, and no matter how much Shen Ye struggled, it was useless.
Oh no, we're going to die here before we even find him. This cliff is so high, if we fall we'll be turned into mincemeat, and we won't even have a proper body. It's really too tragic.
Now, less than three meters from the cliff, without saying a word, he raised his hand and gave Bai Xuan a scissor-hand salute. This slash not only hurt his hand, but Bai Xuan also did not faint as expected.
It's truly pathetic that he died at the hands of his own people. Shen Ye stopped struggling. So be it. He'll be a hero again in eighteen years.
Stupid System: 'What are you talking about? Someone will come to rescue you soon. Don't worry, I'm absolutely certain. If no one was coming, I would have already taken action.'
Just then, a female ghost's scream suddenly rang in their ears, and even Bai Xuan fainted to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shen Ye held him tightly to prevent him from rolling off the cliff.
Fortunately, Bai Xuan wasn't fat, which made it less strenuous for Shen Ye.
