Chapter 23: One Sword (Important Chapter, Must Read!)

in need of protection."Humph, what a heartless and unprincipled person."Nan Gong Yan Ji let out a soft hum and closed her eyes to meditate and heal.In the course of one night, it seemed that the Frost...The female ghost suspected that the child was alive. She had originally pretended to be a ghost just to scare these two children away.

She felt Aibao was tough to deal with, but she had a few days left before she could leave here...

Full of apprehension, yet unable to escape, so I thought about scaring them away. But...

"You're lying to me!" The female ghost, seeing Su Zi Xi so calm, couldn't hold it any longer and teleported right in front of him!

The female ghost's swollen face was nearly pressed against Su Zixian's: "Ugh—!!!"

Her eyes almost popped out of her head, and she gasped.

Su Zi Xi: "!!!"

Inside, I screamed "Damn it!" but on the surface, I remained completely still, not even changing my expression.

The female ghost: “…”

Damn, that's ten years of good karma deducted!

Aw, little Bao called out to Zi Xi's brother. Oh no, the brother's reflex arc took another trip around the earth!

The more terrifying it got, the slower brother's reaction time became. Su Bao didn't even know what was going on...

"Master, my brother seems to have been scared witless..."

Suibao muttered softly.

Ji Chang shook his head.

Su ZiXi wasn't scared out of her wits.

Actually, what everyone doesn't know is that Su Zixi isn't just slow to react, but his body and mind haven't reached unity yet.

Su He asked if it was a night stroll among the gods, while Su Zi Xi - is a day stroll among the gods.

His body is instinctual, but his soul hasn't awakened yet, so his mind can't keep up with his body.

That's not fear, Rishi God isn't afraid of this saying. The body doesn't fear, the mind does. The body and mind do their own things.

That's why he has the illusion of having a particularly slow reaction time.

"Who are you" the female ghost asked Su Zixuan with suspicion, her gaze shifting to Aibao behind him.

How can you not be afraid at all

Before this, some people used to come here. Some came to this abandoned house for shade, and others sneaked out in the middle of the night to do bad things.

Every single one of them was terrified out of their wits by her.

The female ghost felt the sting of defeat for the first time on these two children.

This little girl muttered to herself, while this little boy looked at her with a cold, expressionless face.

The female ghost was a little irritable and frantic.

She reached out and fiercely grabbed at Su Zixian's face, but who knew a golden light shot up, the female ghost screamed and was flung back...

Su Ziqi also at this time "aw" a sound, pulled up and ran out.

He finally conquered the instinctual urges of his body, regaining control with his mind.

However, the next second, she was pulled back by Su Bao.

Su Zi Xi: "Aaah! I've been grabbed by a ghost! Aaah!"

Suibao: "Zixian gege, calm down!"

Su Zi Xi: "Ahhhh..."

Suibao retaliated with a "big slap" to her brother, saying: "Brother! Calm down!"

She didn't really slap Zi Xi brother, but the female ghost just breathed on Zi Xi brother, letting him get infected with some evil spirit.

Su Zi Xi: Bored.

This slap sent chills down his spine, and Su Zi Xi finally calmed down.

He was taken aback by the ghost girl’s breath, but gradually recovered.

"What's wrong What happened" Su Zi Xi asked, then reached the ghost stuck on the wall so hard she couldn't peel it off.

Though it was terrifying, he suddenly felt like he could handle it.

His heart seemed stronger than he had imagined.

"Bro, you go ask her, who is she, how did she end up here, and how did she die"

Su Zi Xi subconsciously replied, "Oh oh, okay..."

Actually, he was also curious how this female ghost died. Was she really steamed to death

What happened, and why was she put in a barrel to be steamed

Given her size, why didn't she resist Why not just lift the bucket and run away

"Feed... You... Who are you Are you a villager from this village" Su Zi Xi thought so in her heart, but her mouth had already spoken first.

The female ghost on the wall moved, and suddenly slid down from the wall...

The next moment, the female ghost vanished!

Su Zi Xi was startled.

A sudden gust of cold wind blew, and there seemed to be giggling in her ears. Su Zi Xi was startled and quickly turned around, but saw nothing.

He didn't know that the fire on his shoulder had been extinguished by this sudden turn of his head.

"Sister...where did she go!"

Su Zi Xi nervously asked.

But then he realized, his younger sister was gone!

"Sister!"

Su Zi Xi was frightened and quickly ran outside. The room inside became very dim and cold for some reason.

It's daytime outside right now, the sun is really big. Let's go out and talk later...

However, Su Zixian's foot had crossed the threshold, yet she found herself stepping back into the room through the kitchen doorway!

He was terrified, and bolted!

But no matter how he ran, he always went out through the door connecting the hall and came back in through the door connecting the kitchen!

"Sister...ah ah, sister, where are you!" Su Zi Xi ran around like a headless fly.

He was all alone, as if the world had vanished and only he remained, trapped here.

"... chatter... chatter..." A strange laughter echoed in her ear.

Su Zi Xi's scalp went numb, and she instinctively turned her head back.

Still nothing here!

Now he understood, the most terrifying thing wasn't encountering a ghost, but knowing there was one present while being unable to locate its whereabouts. That was truly the most frightening aspect!

in the shadows.

A female ghost floated in mid-air, staring coldly at Su Zixian.

These two kids are indeed impressive, but it was precisely because Su Zixian made his move that the female ghost finally got a sense of their abilities.

But so be it!

It took all her might to knock her against the wall.

If she were truly powerful, she would have vanished by now.

"Very good...heheheh, very good."

She still has two days before she becomes a demon, but she doesn't want to endure this pain of being steamed in a barrel day and night anymore.

As long as she could scare the souls out of these two children and devour them... maybe, tonight she could successfully level up and finally leave this place that had held her captive for ten years!

Now, Su Zi Xi's two lanterns of solar fire on her shoulders have extinguished...

After an endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly sat up from the bed.wledge base from his previous life, his lifespan was still limited. For over a decade, he mainly focused on alchemy and pharmacology.There are too many things he doesn't know about.And he had also hea...
