The chains extended in all directions, firmly gripping the spirit of the lamp.
Instantly, the Ghost King was like prey caught in a spider web, imprisoned in a net woven from chains.
"ah--"
"Jiang Yuan!"
The Ghost King shouted hoarsely.
With a wave of his hand, Jiang Yuan caused the huge and lonely Kaiyang Sword to glow with golden light. As if it had heard a summons, it slowly shrank and flew into Jiang Yuan's hand on its own.
Jiang Yuan gripped the Kaiyang Sword, tiptoed, and leaped into the air, stopping in front of the Ghost King.
"Goodnight, may you never wake up again." With that, Jiang Yuan raised the Kaiyang Sword and slashed down at the Ghost King without hesitation.
As the Ghost King was cleaved in two, Ning Chi on the ground was also burned to ashes by the soul fire.
Click—
The chains broke the moment the Ghost King vanished.
The golden light on the Kaiyang Sword gradually faded, revealing its original appearance.
It has a tough, dark, yet incredibly sharp appearance.
"Your mission is complete, and thank you too." Jiang Yuan looked down at the Kaiyang Sword and said gratefully, as if it were conscious and could understand her words.
The Kaiyang Sword was originally the sword worn by the monarch Ning Yuan. Later, due to the Ghost King, all the civil and military officials volunteered to die under the Kaiyang Sword, just so that the Kaiyang Sword would be imbued with evil energy and be able to kill the Ghost King.
Unfortunately, the Ghost King had already split into two souls.
Ning Yuan's act of beheading the Ghost King with his sword did not completely destroy him.
It can be said that after all the civil and military officials were willing to die, the Kaiyang Sword was created as a weapon specifically to slay the Ghost King.
Aside from the Kaiyang Sword, I'm afraid—
No one can kill the Ghost King.
It carries the hopes of the ministers and people of the Li Kingdom.
When they sacrificed their lives for the Kaiyang Sword, they had only one hope.
Slay the Demon King!
Now that the Ghost King has been defeated, the Kaiyang Sword's mission has been completed, and it is now just an ordinary sword.
"I will bring you to your master's side, and I will no longer let you stay alone in the Cold Abyss Pool," Jiang Yuan promised.
It should have stayed with its master, but because of the Ghost King, it has been staying in the underworld.
It has endured hardship for over a thousand years.
"The spirit of the lamp was originally woven to seal the Ghost King. Now that the Ghost King is dead, the spirit of the lamp... should no longer exist."
As Jiang Yuan finished speaking, the soul fire rose upwards, its flames intensifying until even the lamp spirit was burned through, leaving a hole. And then…
The entire spirit of the lamp was burned to death by the spirit fire.
The underworld officials outside were astonished by what they saw.
The spirit of the lamp has been burned!
Just when they thought something had happened inside, they saw Jiang Yuan standing in the fire.
She held the Kaiyang Sword in her hand, and was accompanied by the Yama's Pen, which had transformed into a human form.
At this moment, the underworld officials were stunned.
beautiful.
It's breathtakingly beautiful.
They always treated Little Yama like a child, but now it seems...
The child has grown up.
"The Ghost King has been destroyed, and we no longer need to weave lamp spirits." Jiang Yuan lifted his eyelids and announced like a leader.
The spirits of the lamps are not woven from paper or cloth, but from the turbid air of the underworld, combined with their power.
Weaving a lamp spirit requires a great deal of power, and keeping the lamp spirit lit also requires a great deal of power.
She used her own power before, but later, when her soul transmigrated, she used the power of the judge and other underworld officials.
The power of the lamp spirit had been weakening, and in the end it was almost just an ordinary lamp spirit, unable to contain any ghost. If it weren't for the Kaiyang Sword guarding it and supplying the lamp spirit with its own power, the Ghost King and the fierce ghosts in the lamp spirit would probably have escaped long ago.
Now that the Ghost King is dead, there is no need for anyone to infuse power into the Lamp Spirit.
So, keeping the spirit of the lamp is useless.
The Ghost King from a thousand years ago has finally...
It's dead.
"My lord." The judge's eyes were red-rimmed as he looked with satisfaction at Jiang Yuan, who seemed to have grown up overnight.
He vividly remembers the battle that took place in the country a thousand years ago, even though he was just an observer.
At that time, no one could defeat the Ghost King, not even him.
Unexpectedly, a thousand years later, the Little Yama King finally destroyed the Ghost King.
The people who had left the country can finally rest in peace.
"You've worked hard for thousands of years," Jiang Yuan said, looking at the judge.
"I'll need your help cleaning up this mess. I'm still participating in a variety show and need to go back to the island now," Jiang Yuan continued, not forgetting that she was still participating in the show.
Something is affecting the area around the island, which is why the wind and waves are so strong.
It's obvious that Ning Chi was behind it.
Now that Ning Chi is dead, the commotion he caused will naturally disappear.
Zhang Guoping and his team could see what was happening on the island; even if they couldn't see the whole thing, they should have seen half of it.
Zhang Guoping should know what the situation is. Once the commotion subsides, he will definitely send a helicopter to pick them up immediately.
With so many things happening, the variety show can no longer be filmed.
People in the real world won't be affected by resentment, but those few people on the island might be.
They are inherently selfish and only care about themselves.
With the slightest influence of resentment, they will reveal their true colors.
"Yes!" the underworld officials and their messengers replied in unison.
Only after Jiang Yuan's figure disappeared from sight did Hei Wuchang ask, "What is a variety show?"
He has been dead for a long time, and his visits to the mortal world are only for collecting souls; he has no understanding of many things in the mortal world.
After Black Impermanence finished speaking, he looked at Night Wanderer, hoping he could answer his question.
Among the many underworld beings, Night Wanderer is the youngest and also a so-called 21st-century soul.
