"It's been so long since I've met a worthy opponent, this is really interesting!"
Tianji's face twisted in a sinister grimace as he said, "I've figured out your abilities. Now... warm-up time is over!"
The moment the words left her lips, Zhou Xiaomeng, who was loading bullets into the golden pistol, suddenly gushed a large amount of blood from her neck and severed her neck.
When her head hit the ground, her expression still held a hint of bewilderment.
In an instant, Zhou Xiaomeng was beheaded by Tianji.
Tianji's speed was too fast, so fast that Zhou Xiaomeng couldn't react at all and didn't even have the slightest chance to resist.
Zhou Xiaomeng, her head chopped off, lay in a pool of blood, seemingly dead.
Qiao Xinyuan and Li Yunheng, who were standing nearby, changed their expressions repeatedly upon seeing Zhou Xiaomeng's sudden death.
How could a female Ghost Tamer with decent skills die like that?
Isn't that a bit too fast, too exaggerated?
A sorrowful expression was brewing on Li Yunheng's face, but before the tears could fall from the corners of his eyes, Zhou Xiaomeng, who had just been beheaded, suddenly stood up again.
The group thought she was about to Fierce Ghost Revival, but she instead covered her head with both hands and put it back on her neck.
The next second, blood stopped gushing from her neck, but the wound still hadn't healed.
Amidst the incredulous gazes of the others, Zhou Xiaomeng took a couple of rough breaths. "That was close, I almost died!"
She looked at Tianji with fear in her eyes. If she hadn't been prepared, she would have been dead from that attack.
Few Ghost Tamers can withstand the damage of decapitation.
Qiao Xinyuan was somewhat shocked by Zhou Xiaomeng's miraculous return to life, but mostly overjoyed; having another teammate meant having more security.
Compared to Qiao Xinyuan's shock, Li Yunheng was furious, his expression becoming somewhat dazed.
He developed a profound skepticism about the world and about everyone around him.
If this mission hadn't been so difficult, he would never have realized how capable his little follower who always followed him around was!
Zhou Xiaomeng is not only quick-witted, like an assassin who seizes the opportunity to deliver the final blow, but she also possesses the miraculous ability to resurrect!
Zhou Xiaomeng has never revealed these trump cards to anyone!
Li Yunheng looked at Hu Jiu, then at Zhou Xiaomeng, and was bewildered.
By the same token, does everyone around us wear one or even multiple layers of disguise?
Everyone concealed their true colors, donning a mask of hypocrisy and harmlessness, while he foolishly laid bare all his strength, even feeling smug about it.
My teammates, who outwardly respect me as their leader, may actually have ulterior motives and are just using me as a shield!
Li Yunheng suddenly felt an immense sense of dread, as if he were a little white rabbit who had mistakenly wandered into a place of extreme danger.
Is it possible that many of the seemingly ordinary Ghost Tamers at Headquarters are actually incredibly powerful, just like Zhou Xiaomeng?
Perhaps there are many unexpected people, all of them are pretending. The Big Bad Wolf disguises himself as Little Red Riding Hood, appearing gentle and timid on the surface, but in reality, he hides his bloodthirst and fangs in the dark, constantly carrying out all sorts of conspiracies and schemes.
In a fleeting moment, all sorts of chaotic thoughts flashed through Li Yunheng's mind. His train of thought went completely off track, leaving him utterly bewildered and questioning the meaning of life.
What is the true nature of this world? Everyone seems to have another face; he can't tell them apart, he really can't!
Zhou Xiaomeng is shouting at me. What is she shouting? Why can't I hear her?
Li Yunheng was bewildered.
While he was distracted, Tianji teleported behind him and slapped him on the head.
Before Li Yunheng could react, his entire body trembled violently like waves in Zhou Xiaomeng's horrified gaze.
He finally came to his senses with a look of horror on his face, but it was too late!
The Fierce Ghost within him was suppressed, and his body was unable to move, as if it were bound by something.
The next second, Li Yunheng collapsed.
Hu Jiu never intended to rescue him, because this person harbored unknown malice towards her.
The team has officially suffered a reduction in personnel.
Qiao Xinyuan's face turned deathly pale. How could Li Yunheng have died like that?
He's clearly very strong, how could he have gotten distracted just now!
In such high-level combat, even a second of distraction could give the enemy an opportunity to seize!
How could Li Yunheng, a veteran Ghost Tamer, make such a basic mistake?
Zhou Xiaomeng's expression also became very serious. At this moment, although Tianji was a little disheveled, his condition did not seem to be affected too much.
Originally, even four people couldn't defeat Tianji; now that they've lost a member, their chances of winning are even slimmer!
"It seems he doesn't have the ability to resurrect." Tianji glanced at Li Yunheng's corpse and commented disdainfully.
"Of course, even if you could all be resurrected, I could kill you until you could never be resurrected again!"
Swish--
With Li Yunheng's death, the Fierce Ghost within him began to awaken.
Various forms of Corpse Insects proliferated and spread; some crawled on the ground, while others took flight.
Thousands of Corpse Insects swarmed, transforming into wisps of black mist that swept in all directions.
The Corpse Insects could not harm Hu Jiu, and could not even get close to Hu Jiu.
Qiao Xinyuan's sleeve was devoured by the Corpse Insects in a few bites. This sudden turn of events caused his expression to change drastically, and he hurriedly shouted, "Danger! Use Ghost Domain to protect yourself!"
As he spoke, he unleashed his Ghost Domain.
Tianji copied the Corpse Insects's abilities, controlling the worms to launch a frenzied attack.
At the same time, he also used another Supernatural power, and a series of thunderous sounds rang out in the air. Violent shockwaves struck again, impacting everything in all directions.
At this moment, the Ghost Domain that Qiao Xinyuan had created became unstable, seemingly on the verge of collapse.
"We can't hold on any longer, retreat!" Qiao Xinyuan screamed in alarm.
The original four-person team has become three, and the fallen teammates have become knives in the hands of the enemy, instantly turning the situation into an extremely unfavorable one.
That kind of Supernatural that can generate explosions and shockwaves can penetrate the Ghost Domain. If you linger any longer, you'll definitely be killed!
Qiao Xinyuan left without hesitation.
Zhou Xiaomeng also ran away, even earlier and faster Qiao Xinyuan.
In such a chaotic and dangerous scene, only Hu Jiu remained completely unaffected.
"I'm becoming more and more interested in your abilities!" Tianji smiled sinisterly, a glint of greed flashing in his eyes.
The Ghost Tamer can fight him to a standstill and not be at a disadvantage must have a very special and extraordinary Fierce Ghost inside him!
Tianji never expected that such a powerful figure could emerge in this new era. Indeed, one should not underestimate the heroes of the world. If he could seize the ghost within Hu Jiu's body, it would be like adding wings to a tiger for him!
Tianji had set his sights on seizing the treasure, he naturally wanted to kill Hu Jiu and leave him here.
As for Qiao Xinyuan and Zhou Xiaomeng who escaped, Tianji didn't care at all. He could kill them easily if he had the chance, just like when he killed Li Yunheng, it only took one move.
