Seeing the scorching flames before him, the vengeful ghost was terrified. Just as it was about to cry for help, it was engulfed by the flames and burned to ashes.
The other vengeful spirits tried to flee upon seeing this, but—
It's too late.
Countless white threads appeared out of thin air, binding the vengeful ghosts tightly like steel wires.
When touched, the vengeful spirit wailed in agony, as if it had been cut open by a knife.
Some of the white threads were like meat being ground, brutally strangling the bound vengeful ghost.
Their cries of agony and pleas for mercy reached Jiang Yuan's ears, but Jiang Yuan did not show them the same pity she had for mortals.
Because they deserve it.
The vengeful ghosts that can be suppressed in the lamp spirits are all those who are utterly wicked or have committed countless evil deeds.
They fear her now and obey her in every way only because she is more powerful than them and can wipe them out at any time.
That's why I was so polite to her.
If she is weaker than them, then the moment she enters the lamp spirit realm, they will reveal their true forms and devour her.
so--
They do not deserve sympathy.
On the contrary, the disappearance of one more person is to rid the people of harm and to punish the wicked.
They were led by the Ghost King, and they always referred to him as "Lord Ghost King." They must have contributed a lot during the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts.
In this way, they are no different from the nourishment for the Ghost King.
They all deserved to die.
Furthermore, since we've already come all this way, we should at least bring some 'gifts' for the Ghost King.
For example, help him clear out the lamp spirits to prevent them from becoming too numerous and crowded.
"ah--"
"Help--"
"Lord Ghost King, save us... save us..."
The vengeful ghosts burning in the fire screamed hysterically, hoping that the Ghost King would come to their rescue.
However, it was in vain.
Those vengeful spirits who weren't caught in the fire looked at Jiang Yuan with nothing but fear in their eyes.
Didn't they say that although this King Yama didn't die, he became a mortal and could only stay in the mortal world and couldn't return to the underworld?
Why did you suddenly come back, and why are you so powerful?
Is it exactly the same as before?
Jiang Yuan coldly glanced at the vengeful ghosts in the distance, and the ghosts trembled when they saw Jiang Yuan's gaze.
Jiang Yuan raised her hand and waved it. Countless white threads, like fierce snakes, rushed towards the vengeful ghosts at a speed as fast as light, catching the ghosts off guard.
"ah--"
Another scream rang out.
Jiang Yuan ignored him and walked straight ahead.
Looking up, Jiang Yuan saw the Kaiyang Sword, which should have been in the Cold Abyss Pool, now standing tall and unyielding like a symbol, not far away, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.
However, that sword is quite different from the one before.
If it weren't for Ye You saying that the Kaiyang Sword had escaped from the Cold Abyss Pool and entered the Lamp Soul,
She would never associate this sword with the Kaiyang Sword when she saw it.
