Chapter 198 - 157: Ghost Messenger
The Ghost Messenger opened its mouth to speak, staring at Li Yi with a pair of hollow eye sockets, already treating him as an enemy, behind it stood ten officials wielding black Water and Fire Sticks, each with a deadly pale face and expressionless, striding forward, their bodies shifting indeterminately as if they were a cold breeze passing by.
"You’re different from other ghosts, possessing your own consciousness? What did you mean just now, ’ghosts collecting life span’? Does this mean that all the life spans you ghosts collect from the living are handed over to the ghosts behind you? What kind of evil ghost would monthly scavenge the life span of a city’s population for its own use?" Li Yi squinted his eyes, unafraid of the Ghost Messenger.
With a Sword Coin in hand and the enhancement of the Guiding Skill, he might well be able to fight these ghosts.
"Kill this ignorant mortal." The Ghost Messenger did not answer Li Yi’s question but instead issued a hoarse command to kill with its raspy voice.
The moment after, those ten officials wielding Water and Fire Sticks immediately lunged forward, their ghastly faces twisted into ferocity, their hollow eye sockets intently fixed on Li Yi, deeming him an enemy, and then, wielding their Water and Fire Sticks, they ferociously struck at Li Yi.
"You evil spirits, abetting tyranny, stealing the living’s life span, deserve to die." Li Yi shouted, his feet surging with Jin Qi, and his large and robust body instantly charged toward the nearest official.
He dodged the unstable Water and Fire Sticks, and with a fist radiating dazzling light, he smashed directly onto the head of that Ghost Official.
In an instant.
The Ghost Official’s head was immediately smashed to pieces, turning him into a headless ghost, which after twitching a few times, fell to the ground, and his body swiftly disintegrated, turning into a stream of black Yin energy that merged into the surroundings, completely dead.
