“Donghuang, how dare you treat me like this!?”
His unhappy and desperate hoarse roar echoed in the sky over Ghost City. However, as a silver light that split his ghost body in two burst forth, it too split in two, slowly falling to both sides. Its soul was dispersed, never to sound again.
A Jiao Ghost?
Feng Qing’an recognized this ghost king slain by a single sword. If he remembered correctly, this was one of the ghost kings who had come to greet him when Donghuang brought him to Heishan. He had been impressed by the assortment of ghost kings serving under her, but not too long passed before one of these kings stood against Donghuang and turned into her enemy.
Judging from the final dying howl of the Jiao Ghost, it seemed like there were untold stories behind this. However, regardless of how many stories there might have been, they all ended at this moment, turning into nothing more than dust.
“Donghuang, you really are ruthless!”
Within clouds that bore countless ghost creatures, a pair of blood-red eyes as large as grinding plates opened, emanating a murky, gruff laughter. Just the sound of this laughter made Heishan feel uncomfortable. This was a ghost king who had made a home within the clouds.
“You killed Fu Li, who has been with you for two Jiazi, without any hesitation or mercy!”
“He rebelled. There is no reason for mercy!”
A ruthless voice rose in response, followed by sword light pouring down like a river in the sky, tearing through the dark clouds extending for hundreds of miles.
“Such a sharp sword, but it’s a shame that the rumors were true. Your essence is damaged, and your sword is not as formidable as it used to be, not causing me the fear it once did!”
From the darkness of the clouds, a huge ghost claw emerged and quickly grabbed tne sword lignt tnat nad disrupted tne Clouds tilled witn gnosts. ‘l’nen, with a snap, the sword light shattered alongside a cracking noise that scared countless ghost creatures, disappearing into a turbulent current of sword qi that killed many ghost creatures near it.
“Donghuang, everyone in Ten Directions Ghost Kingdom knows that the Jiao Ghost joined you because of his affection for you. Considering its status, it could have easily formed its own kingdom. But alas, who would’ve thought it would meet such a tragic end. How pathetic and laughable!”.
A second gigantic ghost king emerged from the hundreds of miles long darkness. This was another extremely powerful ghost king, who upon hearing the news of Donghuang’s heavy damage, immediately came over, wanting to take advantage of the situation.
All the ghost kings that surrounded Ghost City were just pieces sent out for probing. Hence, even when Jiao Ghost, who had temporarily pledged allegiance, was cut down, they didn’t care because they could’ve achieved the same thing.
“Just the two of you?”
The wind whistled softly, and the phoenix opened its wings. The ruler of You Huang Ghost Country stood on its back, looking down at the two powerful ghost kings. They were also rulers of ghost countries and had grudges against her, but they could only hold their positions, and now they finally saw an opportunity.
“Of course not just us. How could we dare disrespect you?
“We even found a suitable opponent for your mount!”
In the middle of their banter, an overwhelming wave of malicious aura descended, and a skeleton, which wasn’t particularly taller or even as big as the average evil ghost, appeared amongst the cloud of gathered ghosts. Its figure had been lurking for some unknown amount of time before revealing itself.
It was wearing crystal armor, holding a large bow that radiated an icy chill. The moment it appeared, the ghost creatures around it were instantly torn apart and devoured by an indescribable malicious aura. A white arrow, which had been readied on the bow for an unknown amount of time, was suddenly shot.
Clang, clang—
Youyou suddenly let out an unprecedentedly high-pitched phoenix shriek because she too was facing a life-threatening crisis. This was an arrow shot with the intent to bring her down.
“Youyou!”
Donghuang’s expression turned grave. She was ready to use her sword to sweep everything away. She couldn’t just watch Youyou fall before her eyes. Even a severe injury was unacceptable.
“I can handle it!”
But the little phoenix stopped Donghuang. She knew that Donghuang wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of all threats. There wasn’t only these three powerful ghost kings in front of her, but many others lurking in the shadows. Once she took out that sword, she could only kill those in front of her, and those hiding might be frightened away.
“It’s not just you who has a final move, I have one too!”
The little phoenix, Youyou, was proud and confident. She and Donghuang had met a long time ago. Although they trusted each other, she didn’t know everything about Donghuang, and Donghuang didn’t fully understand her either.
“How bold!”
Listening to Youyou’s transmission, Donghuang chose to trust her. However, she still drew her sword. Invisible sword light rained down heavily on the skeleton that had just fired the arrow. A circle of about ten miles was completely stirred up, shattering the dark clouds in the area.
Senluo Sword Box: Formless Shadow!
She wanted the enemies hiding in the darkness to believe that she was incredibly weak at this moment, and that she had used all her methods. She didn’t hide anything in the hope of alluring them all out so that she could rid them all at once.
Lidllg—
The phoenix spewed dark fire. The billowing flames wrapped around the arrow fired at her but couldn’t stop its course even a bit. The chilly aura it contained seemed specifically designed to counter the flaming prowess of the phoenix that had fallen into the dark world.
“Arrows made from the essence of the ice spirit, these guys have really put effort into killing me. It’s a pity, it’s a waste of effort!”
Even when facing the threat of demise, the little phoenix, Youyou, didn’t panic. In the billowing flames spewed from her mouth, a touch of red light appeared at some point. Amidst the mainly black flames, the light of the red flame looked particularly conspicuous..
