However, the difference in strength between the other ghosts was too great, and he was never able to know the true strength of Ghost General Li Chang.
If he were to go himself, there would be no doubt about it.
But if we send someone to capture him, wouldn't that boost the enemy's morale and diminish our own?
Just when Yama was at his wit's end, Fairy Jingyun found him and said that she wanted Tang Nian to capture Li Chang and bring him back to the underworld.
How could the King of Hell agree to that?
Putting aside the fact that she is the fairy's most beloved disciple, this little radish head of hers could be blown away by the ghost general Li Chang in a single breath.
Tang Nian also came to the Yama King's Palace to express her determination.
Even the King of Hell had no choice but to repeatedly warn them that if there was any danger, they should flee.
He also secretly instructed the Black and White Impermanence that if anything went wrong, they should find a way to rescue Tang Nian and bring her back to the underworld.
Unexpectedly, Tang Nian, with her small stature, easily subdued Li Chang.
When a wicked ghost arrives in the underworld, it will certainly not have a good outcome.
The King of Hell immediately cast him into the eighteenth level of hell, condemning him to eternal damnation.
Thus began the feud between Li Chang, the Ghost General, and Tang Nian.
Only Tang Nian knew that she had only been learning magic from her master for a short time at that time, so how could she really go head-to-head with Li Chang?
Unfortunately, Li Chang was far too arrogant, and she easily fell for his trick.
Now look what's happened; even Li Chang has been released to deal with me.
Although there are quite a few powerful ghosts in the underworld who can deal with Li Chang, it's too late to say anything now.
Tang Nian gripped the hilt of her sword tightly, ready to fight.
The longsword gleamed with a cold light, its tip pointing at the ghost general, seemingly challenging this overlord of the darkness.
Li Chang, the Ghost General, could not bear such humiliation and let out a deafening roar, as if thunder had exploded above his head.
It swung its huge arms and pounced on Tang Nian.
Tang Nian was not afraid at all. She was agile and dodged the ghost general's attack with a sidestep.
Tang Nian immediately retaliated, wielding her Azure Frost Sword and launching a fierce attack on the Ghost General.
The sword flashed, the sword energy surged, and every swing of the sword carried the force of thunder.
However, the Ghost General's defense was extremely strong, and although Tang Nian's attacks were fierce, they could not leave the slightest mark on him.
Tang Nian was not discouraged. She knew that in order to defeat this ghost general, she had to find its weakness.
She carefully observed Li Chang's movements and aura, trying to find its weakness.
Lou Mu and Ji Jingyu also guessed Tang Nian's idea and cooperated with her to fight Li Chang in a war of attrition.
But fighting Li Chang Ghost General alone is not that easy.
Even after being imprisoned in hell and tortured for so many years, Li Chang's skills did not decline much.
Finally, just as Ji Jingyu was about to give up, Tang Nian discovered a weakness in Li Chang, the Ghost General.
He would fly into a rage if anyone attacked him near his abdomen, and would retaliate in a more brutal manner.
At the same time, his breathing was also rather disordered.
However, Li Chang, the Ghost General, was clearly aware of his own weakness, and he was constantly protecting his abdomen.
He wouldn't even reveal his true form; the lower half of his entire ghost was hidden in the woods, making it difficult to kill him with a single blow.
Tang Nian's heart stirred. She took a deep breath, gathered all her spiritual power, and pointed her sword at the ghost general's abdomen.
Then, she charged at the ghost general with lightning speed and swung her sword.
Even though Li Chang and Ji Jingyu were locked in a fierce battle, he would naturally take extra care of his number one enemy, Tang Nian.
He slapped Ji Jingyu away and stared intently at Tang Nian.
Tang Nian knew that if that attack missed, she wouldn't have another chance like that.
She turned to look at the two people behind her.
Lou Mu stood there, panting heavily, his hand tightly gripping a folding fan. A wound had been drawn on his face, from which blood seeped.
Ji Jingyu had just been struck down by Li Chang's palm, his entire demon crashing heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He sat up and leaned against the rock, trying to get up, but Lou Mu stopped him.
Next up is Tang Nian's turn.
"Tang Nian, you little brat, it's your turn now."
Li Chang, the ghost general, chuckled, looking at Tang Nian as if she were a dead man.
“I don’t understand why you would obey this mortal’s orders.”
Tang Nian stalled for time, shouting loudly.
Li Chang, the Ghost General, lived up to Tang Nian's expectations and even started chatting with her.
These people probably think that saying a few more words won't have any impact on the overall situation.
But that's not the case.
Tang Nian suddenly felt a surge of warm energy within her body.
Although she didn't know why, she couldn't care less about the situation at the moment.
“I am a ghost general, and I have never heard of the orders of mortals. However, I have always valued loyalty and righteousness, and this is just to repay the kindness of those who released me from the underworld.”
The power surging within Tang Nian's body had not yet ceased.
She took a deep breath and then smiled.
"Is it to repay a debt of gratitude, or is the condition that person is to kill me?"
Even though Li Chang was completely shrouded in black mist, Tang Nian still noticed his surprised raised eyebrow.
She was right.
Feeling the power surging within her, Tang Nian even felt that she could fight it without the sword in her hand.
She gripped her longsword tightly and charged straight at Li Chang as he threw a punch.
The hand that wasn't holding the sword slammed down hard on Li Chang's fist.
Black mist mixed with dust rose into the air.
After everything had calmed down, Lou Mu was surprised to find that Li Chang Ghost General seemed to have taken a half step back.
Tang Nian remained suspended in mid-air, her eyes blazing.
Li Chang dared not underestimate Tang Nian at this point, and he had to admit that Tang Nian's current strength was not to be underestimated.
He and Tang Nian looked at each other quietly, neither of them making a move.
Suddenly, Tang Nian moved first.
Her sword tip was aimed directly at Li Chang's left eye, which made Li Chang lower his guard.
But to everyone's surprise, just as the longsword was about to pierce his left eye, Tang Nian suddenly dropped downwards, heading straight for his abdomen.
This sword strike embodied all of Tang Nian's power and spiritual energy, its light dazzling and its aura like a rainbow.
The moment the sword tip touched the demon general's abdomen, it felt as if a powerful force exploded.
Li Chang, the Ghost General, let out a miserable scream, and his body trembled violently.
The sword in her hand vibrated and hummed continuously, so Tang Nian simply let go, and the longsword floated directly in the air.
Li Chang tried to reach out and draw his longsword, but Tang Nian forced him back with a palm strike.
The longsword, having been pulled from Li Chang's body, plunged straight back into him.
The entire sword gleamed with a dazzling white light.
It successfully pierced Li Chang's abdomen.
Li Changgui let out an even more shrill scream as his body began to collapse, eventually turning into a wisp of black smoke and dissipating into the air.
Tang Nian landed slowly.
She picked up the fallen sword, wiped it casually, and put it back in its sheath.
