Chapter 91: Splendid

In a quiet but dangerous time, Xiaomao dragged my body to a relatively far place, and then returned to Xiaoxi’s side.

Chengxin’s voice sounded behind me: “Old Wu, still seeking revenge? You see, these people bully people because they have power. Anyway, Chengyi is my junior brother, my senior brother, and the person I would die for. I have so much affection for him that I can’t even describe it. I’ll stay here. You, you little bastard, find a chance to run, or when the time is right, hide in the Dragon’s Tomb with Ruoxue. Even if Chengyi dies, he’ll help Ruoxue finish this.

Chengxin’s tone was relaxed, but I was full of black lines. What does it mean to have an indescribable passion? Is this guy going to take our family’s unruly behavior to the extreme?

I turned to look at Brother Chengxin, but saw three bright red pills in front of him. His expression was clearly serious, and he was piercing his eyebrows. He was also taking essence and blood. What kind of pills were these? I was confused. After all, I didn’t understand the things in the medical vein. I believed that Brother Chengxin wouldn’t harm me.

When the old Wu heard what Brother Chengxin said, his face changed and he shouted, “What the hell? Brother and brother again, and also unspeakable feelings? Are you kidding me? I don’t care what you say, I can understand it anyway. Are you looking down on me and telling me to get out? Am I going to get out? I’ve been a ghost for so many years, I’m timid and have no strengths, but I remember one thing very deeply, you can’t abandon people close to you! This is what my brothers taught me, and if I fight to the death, I still have the ability. I’m not leaving.”

Chengxin looked deeply at the old ghost Wu, and the look in his eyes was one of emotion. If we die, we can still preserve our souls, but if it dies, it will be the end of the world.

However, there is also some sadness. Our Li family is naturally a master of trouble, and whenever we get into trouble, it is always a big deal. But we are weak, and every time we are bullied by others.

I didn’t look again, but turned back and stared at Weng Li. At this moment, he was already receiving the infusion of spiritual power. Those ghost heads surrounded him, protecting him. It was absolutely impossible for me to have any thoughts of attacking him. We could only passively wait for their attack.

I heard Xiaoxi say to Xiaomao, “Humans have many terrible things about them, but they also have many good qualities. Xiaomao, we can’t just see the bad things about humans, we should see more of the good things. That’s what makes humans stronger than us beasts. This time, we absolutely can’t abandon them and run away. Look, isn’t Chengyi always protecting us? Wait, use the secret technique, Xiaomao.”

Xiao Xi really is… I can’t express how moved I am. A demon is more beautiful than many people. Shouldn’t many people reflect on their own behavior?

The storm is coming, and you don’t want it to come, but it will come anyway, just like this battle. Quiet and safe times are certainly nostalgic, but the moment of battle will eventually come.

The strange whistle finally sounded, accompanied by a face full of hatred for me, but also a face that could not hide his smugness. He hated me for destroying his two ghost heads, and he was smug because he seemed to see me being trampled under his feet.

With the sound of the whistle, the ghosts finally came in an endless stream.

The sound of the buzzing alone, full of negative emotions, is enough to make an ordinary person’s mind collapse, either go crazy or have their soul damaged, becoming a vegetable.

The Five Elements cannot be used here, but the ability to move the wind is the original ability of Silly Tiger, and it is not restricted. Although it is not as powerful as in the outside world where the wind element flows freely.

The ghosts moved, and I tightened my claws. The next moment, I went forward without hesitation!

All I could do was use my speed to block them, to block them!

In just a moment, I felt as if I had entered a sea of ghost heads. The overwhelming sight of them all was a test of my ability to withstand pressure. If you have ever been surrounded by a crowd, or if you can experience even a little of this feeling, you will definitely be under pressure! Not to mention the fact that the ghost heads are hideous and carry absolute negative emotions.

I was screaming, my eyes burning. When the ghosts attacked, they would attack in groups of dozens!

In this situation, I can’t eliminate them at all. My spirit is concentrated as never before. As long as one of them escapes and rushes to the back, I will use my absolute speed advantage to block it and slap it back with one paw.

My body has its own aura of evil, and I somehow know that in my heyday, even if I didn’t deliberately suppress this aura of evil, this innate aura of evil could be cast out of my body. Other animals, even if they were demons, would be suppressed by this aura of evil when they saw me. The weaker ones would faint directly, and the better ones would be unable to move.

During my prime, this kind of ghost would be obliterated by the aura of my body, and now I think about it, it is a kind of sadness.

The truth is, I am just a remnant of a soul, and even when I merge with Chengyi’s soul, I am not completely fused, and my combat effectiveness is limited. I was actually ‘humiliated’ by such a low-level ghost, and they were able to get close to me, bite me, and use their numbers to wear down my aura. I had an absolute rage that I wanted to vent.

At that moment, I felt as if I had become a stupid tiger, and all my thoughts were so strange.

It was a difficult, humiliating battle that could only be fought by wearing down my own strength. I felt as if I had gone mad with rage, using my body as a defense, “wearing” them through me one by one, trying to push them back to the rear. I could only do that, and I couldn’t even spare the extra effort to kill them, even though it wasn’t too difficult for me.

It’s just that there are so many ghosts, and when I shoot one back, there are always a few more that sneak past. I have to protect myself! I can’t let any of them get past!

There were no fewer than thirty ghosts on my body, gnawing away at me. The pain that seared my soul and the humiliation of being bitten by something so lowly fermented in my heart. They were just lowly ghosts, not the kind of little ghosts that could be equal to me in defying the heavens. What right did they have?

I vaguely understand that I have a special technique that allows me to fight without regard for anything, but I can’t use it because if I do, all the ghosts will pass through my defense line and then harass the one I want to protect behind me! I can’t let that happen!

I have to do my best to block and protect!

The spirit body does not pant. I think if I could pant, I would be panting right now, but even if I can’t pant, I can feel my spiritual power flowing away like water. The extreme speed naturally comes with extreme consumption. I can see that my body is already somewhat transparent, no longer as majestic and substantial as before.

But the situation is still bad. I saw Weng Li’s smug smile getting bigger and bigger. He didn’t have to make any moves, because he didn’t need to expend any energy, right? Because I knew that I couldn’t kill the ghost heads one by one, and all I could do was buy time. It was only a matter of time before I would fail, right?

I saw the old man behind Weng Li’s eyes getting hotter and hotter. Is the art of merging souls about to be in his hands?

I don’t want to think about the aftermath. I only know that if I don’t use my life to protect them, even if I survive, the world will be a purgatory for me. I will be in pain, regret, and guilt for the rest of my life. This world really has things that are a hundred times more difficult than death.

I let out a long cry and continued to use my life to protect the people I wanted to protect. Every second counts!

In the process, I felt my own exhaustion, the exhaustion of Silly Tiger, and the increasingly heavy pace of our group. Are we about to fall behind?

Even so, I still felt a sense of helplessness that made me want to cry. There were so many ghosts that, in the process of defending, I was still retreating step by step. If I didn’t retreat, I wouldn’t have time to block the ghosts that were coming through.

Taking advantage of these gaps, the army of ghosts also advanced step by step, one meter, two meters… Before I knew it, a gap of nearly five meters had opened up in front of me, and Brother Chengxin was in that position, less than a meter away from the ghosts, but Brother Chengxin didn’t move.

His face was pale, and he was kneeling on the ground, clutching a strange hand gesture, as if he were performing an ancient communication ritual.

I can understand why he is pale. After all, I saw him extract the essence of life with my own eyes. But does the medical pulse really have the means to attack? I was confused! But I would never doubt Brother Chengxin!

Cheng Xin Ge didn’t move, Xiao Xi and Xiao Mao didn’t move either, guarding Cheng Xin Ge on the left and right. But I clearly saw them trembling and their eyes red. What were they doing?

As for the old ghost Wu, I saw his expression, with a hint of hesitation, but his whole body was unexpectedly covered in black energy. The old ghost, who was usually so peaceful and humorous, looked like a fierce ghost at the moment. What was he hesitating about?

Is everyone going to die with me? At this moment, I think we have forgotten the immortal tomb and the benefits we could have had, and we are only here to protect each other and fulfill the great wish of self-sacrifice like snow, and for each other, we are only here to die together.

This is just a burning of emotions, but it is so splendid!
