Chapter 41 I saw Ah Li's ghost
Despite it being broad daylight, Lu Ziting got goosebumps from Wen Yao's words.
"Third brother! What nonsense are you talking about? How could Ye Li turn into a ghost? I think some evil spirit is causing trouble. Reporting to the sect and strengthening its defenses is the right thing to do!"
Wen Yao's gaze deepened. "Actually, you guessed this possibility already, didn't you?"
"I……"
Lu Ziting choked up.
Indeed, he had made some guesses these days, but he dared not think about them in detail.
"If I told you I've seen Ah Li's ghost, would you believe me?"
"What?"
Lu Ziting suddenly became agitated. He grabbed Wen Yao by the collar, "You've seen Ye Li? Why didn't you say so sooner!"
Wen Yao frowned and shook off his hand. "Would you listen to me if I told you? Everyone in the sect hates A-Li to the core. Is there even one of you who truly cares about her?"
Lu Ziting fell silent.
He's right. If it weren't for the many strange things that have happened in the past few days, even if Wen Yao said he saw Ye Li, he wouldn't have believed it, let alone cared.
He lowered his tone, "When did you see Ah Li?"
Wen Yao recounted what happened that day, "I saw it very clearly, A Li was standing under that tree."
Lu Ziting's throat suddenly tightened. "You mean, Ah Li... something has happened to her?"
I don't want to say the word "death," as if saying it would make everything irreversible.
Wen Yao nodded, "Most likely, but since A-Li's soul is still here, as long as we find her as soon as possible, there is still a chance for things to turn around."
Lu Ziting clenched his fist and then relaxed it. "Call them all over, let's discuss this together."
-
"That bitch is dead?"
Having lost his spiritual power, Yuan Ce hated Ye Li to the core. He slammed his fist on the table, "How is this possible? This isn't the first time she's faked her death. It's definitely another of her treacherous schemes!"
Upon hearing about those strange events, Mo Hannian immediately recalled the humiliation he had suffered that day.
So, it's Ye Li!
He trembled with hatred, "I think it's not that there are ghosts, but that someone is pretending to be a ghost."
"Fifth Senior Brother is right! That bitch did it on purpose, causing me to lose my cultivation and become a cripple, and she even tried to scare Junior Sister! If you really believe her, you've fallen into her trap!"
Lu Ziting frowned. Could it be that Ye Li was deliberately playing tricks to make them feel guilty?
Seeing that no one seemed inclined to look for Ye Li, Wen Yao curled his lips into a smile.
He no longer had any hope for them, and stood up, saying, "Since none of you believe me, I'll go find it myself."
Before leaving, he looked back at them.
“You can choose not to go now, but if something really happens to Ah Li, then every one of you will be a murderer who killed Ah Li.”
His tone was calm, but his words pierced the hearts of each of them like a prophecy.
An unbelievable thought popped into everyone's mind: Could Ye Li really be dead...?
Ye Li looked at these self-deceiving people with icy coldness in her eyes.
Even after all this, they still think it was all her own doing.
It seems they will only believe she is dead when they see her body, on the day they ignored her pleas for help.
Wen Yao's men have been gone for several days now, so this day is probably not far off.
The most important thing right now is that Erhei's fish body can no longer be kept. Ye Li plans to send it back to the Chaos Realm first, where it is snowing all day long and will not rot.
-
Upon seeing Ye Li return, the two "evil spirits," who were beholden to her, greeted her solicitously.
Huo Huo couldn't leave the hoop she was standing in, so she bounced around on the spot, shouting, "Mommy! Mommy, you're back!"
Seeing Erhei in Ye Li's hand, Huo Huo drooled, "Mommy, should we grill this fish?"
Ye Li, who was still feeling down, quickly took it away, "No, this is my pet beast."
"ah?"
Huo Huo tilted her head. "But this fish doesn't look special, and it seems a bit dead."
Ah Jin chuckled and said, "If Mother says it's a pet, then it's a pet. Maybe Mother just likes to raise animals to death."
"No, it's my fault... I didn't take good care of it, I'm going to bury it."
After Ye Li buried Erhei, she even erected a small tombstone for it.
Just as she was settling Erhei in, the ground, which had been calm, suddenly shook, and a beast's roar echoed from afar.
The low growl shook the earth, and Ye Li immediately felt a tightness in her chest.
Huo Huo jumped around, "More magical beasts have been let in! The master has already left. Mother, hurry up and go into the tower!"
Just as Ye Li was about to speak, another low growl came.
Her very soul trembled.
Such overwhelming pressure comes from a troll!
Monsters are divided into low-level, mid-level, and high-level. The highest-level monster is the giant monster, which is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage.
Oh no, Xie Sixing!
Ye Li flew forward and indeed saw Xie Sixing confronting a giant purple-striped tiger.
Xie Sixing was not even as big as the claws of the purple-striped giant tiger. It lowered its front body and roared incessantly, emitting a powerful aura.
"roar-"
Ye Li clutched her chest, nearly being forced to her knees by the pressure.
Xie Sixing, however, looked quite relaxed, and even took out a bag of dried fruit.
It's the bag that Ye Li gave to A Jin before.
Xie Sixing tossed out an entrance and waved it at the purple-striped giant tiger in a friendly manner, "Want some?"
Seeing Xie Sixing's provocation, the purple-striped giant tiger suddenly roared, its earth-shattering roar causing the surrounding snow-capped mountains to collapse.
The next second, the purple-striped giant tiger pounced on Xie Sixing.
The situation was urgent, and Pian Xie Sixing didn't even bother to dodge.
Just as he was about to be crushed into mincemeat, Ye Li flew away on her sword.
"careful!"
Despite its enormous size, the purple-striped giant tiger was incredibly agile. It swung its tail to dodge the attack and then turned to roar at Ye Li.
Xie Sixing also noticed her and waved to her, "Little Taoist priest, you're back. It's been a long time."
Is now the time to catch up?
The purple-striped giant tiger pounced at Ye Li, who leaped backward, her toes leaving long tracks in the snow.
In the blink of an eye, the giant tiger was already in front of them, its mouth wide open, emitting a pungent, bloody stench.
Ye Li's expression was calm as she formed a hand seal with one hand and condensed spiritual energy with the other.
Just as the giant tiger pounced, she spun around and struck it hard on the head.
The purple-striped giant tiger, feeling pain and enraged, attacked Ye Li again.
Ye Li spun around and flipped onto the giant tiger's back. She stretched out her hand, grasped the spirit sword, and stabbed it into the tiger's eye.
The giant tiger let out a miserable cry, angrily trying to throw her off.
Ye Li grabbed the bristles on its back to steady herself.
"Slap slap slap-"
Applause erupted.
Xie Sixing watched the show with great interest, saying, "The Taoist priest is truly amazing."
"That was a brilliant move."
"Keep it up, Taoist priest."
"..."
It's all emotion, with absolutely no value.
Ye Li was only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, and the gap in cultivation level quickly widened.
At the same time, the purple-striped giant tiger had had enough of being restrained by Ye Li and began to frantically shake its body.
Her situation was extremely dangerous; if she came down, she would surely be crushed by the giant tiger.
Xie Sixing had just finished eating the last dried fruit when he clapped his hands and casually flicked a fruit pit, which landed squarely on the forehead of the purple-striped giant tiger, attracting its attention.
The purple-striped giant tiger turned around and confronted Xie Sixing.
Xie Sixing smiled. "Any last words?"
"roar!"
He clicked his tongue. "I almost forgot, we don't speak the same language."
"Then consider this as you saying goodbye."
With a flick of the man's fingertip, the purple-striped giant tiger's body suddenly collapsed.
The chaotic realm returned to tranquility.
It took Ye Li a long time to accept the fact that it was dead.
Dead?
He died like that?
Incredulous, Ye Li's anger flared up as well. "If you could kill it, why didn't you make a move earlier?"
Xie Sixing was surprised, "I saw you were having a lot of fun, so I thought you liked to play."
Ye Li: "..."
On the way back, Xie Sixing took a step backward and spoke to her face to face, "Daoist Master, are you still angry?"
"..."
"Hey, I really thought you enjoyed playing around. You seemed to have a lot of fun riding the tiger, didn't you?"
"..."
"At worst, I'll ride a tiger for you next time?"
"..."
Ye Li remained silent.
It wasn't just that they were being mocked, but also because of Xie Sixing's unfathomable cultivation level.
A magical beast with the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul stage died with a flick of his finger.
What exactly did she release?
