"But—"
Wang Ye sneered. "Who said I came to save you?"
"Our mission is to deal with ghosts."
"What does your life or death have to do with me?"
Wang Ye's words left them rooted to the spot. They stared blankly at him, their faces gradually turning pale.
"I can let the Ghost General kill all of you first, then seal it away afterward."
"Do you believe me?"
At that moment, Wang Ye's smile looked like a demon's to those ordinary people, making them tremble uncontrollably.
"I have money. I have a lot of money."
"As long as I live, I can give it all to you."
"I swear it."
The amusement park shareholder, who had been so arrogant moments ago, now looked ashen. He knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with pleading as he looked at Wang Ye.
"As expected, you only fear evil people?"
Wang Ye said flatly. He ignored the survivors and turned to the other three Superhumans. "Move out."
"Interesting."
Zhou Han licked her lips, picked a corner, and turned to leave.
"Whoever runs into the ghost is the unlucky one."
"After all, holding a ghost back alone for a while takes a heavy toll on the body."
"But I have a feeling you'll be the first to find it."
Tian Qi gave Wang Ye a sinister smile, glancing vaguely at Strong Man. The two tacitly turned and headed off in different directions.
"Who can say for sure?"
Wang Ye muttered as if distracted, then vanished into the thick fog.
Only the survivors remained, standing there in a daze.
A long time passed.
One of the ordinary people finally could not bear the immense pressure any longer and burst into tears.
The others recoiled at once, their faces full of terror.
The man seemed to realize what was happening and instinctively reached out his hand. But the moment he raised it, his face twisted grotesquely before he collapsed to the ground.
"Get back inside! Shut the door, now!"
The shareholder staggered back to the staff room, shouting nonstop.
The others hurriedly shut the door as well.
None of them noticed a single tear of fear slip silently from the corner of one person's eye.
"Does this ghost not have any other killing pattern?"
Standing in the empty amusement park plaza, Wang Ye frowned slightly as he kept thinking.
Logically speaking, someone with a Second-Level Ghost Domain could not possibly have such a simplistic method of killing.
After all, if all one had to do was resist the crying, anyone with sufficiently strong mental fortitude could endure for a while.
But—
If it had other abilities, there were only a few dozen employees. They should have been wiped out long ago. How could there still be survivors?
As he pondered, Wang Ye gradually began searching farther afield.
The green mist seemed to grow thicker, blocking even more of his vision.
"Hehehe~"
Suddenly, a strand of laughter brushed past Wang Ye's ear.
Wang Ye abruptly stopped, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes as he looked toward the source.
Unfortunately, green mist filled the area around him, and all was silent.
That laughter, too, vanished as though it had merely been an illusion.
Wang Ye became even more vigilant and quickened his search.
"Over here!"
A long shout suddenly rang out in the distance. From the sound of it, it seemed to be Tian Qi.
"This guy's luck doesn't seem very good."
Wang Ye smiled, then rushed toward the direction Tian Qi had called for help from.
"I've got this damn thing tied down! Hurry up and get it!"
There was urgency in Tian Qi's voice, and he was clearly running short of breath.
Wang Ye narrowed his eyes and looked from afar. At some point, a black shadow had stretched from Tian Qi's legs into the distance.
At the end of the shadow stood a Boy, his body steeped in an aura of sorrow.
"His other ability is binding ghosts?"
"I wonder how long he can keep it up."
Wang Ye smiled and stopped some distance away. Looking at Tian Qi, he said, "I'm just an ordinary person. I have no way to seal it. There's nothing I can do."
As he spoke, a thoughtful look appeared in Wang Ye's eyes as he watched the show.
"Bastard!"
Tian Qi's face was somewhat pale as he gritted his teeth and glared at Wang Ye. "I'll kill you!"
Just then, Strong Man arrived. He took in the scene, gave Wang Ye a deep look, and then faint specks of golden light began to glow around his body.
The light was clearly dim, yet it instantly brought peace to Wang Ye's heart.
"Buddha Clan!"
Wang Ye's expression changed sharply. He instinctively took two steps back, and at last a trace of wariness appeared in his gaze toward the two men.
After Eternal Night, the Buddha Kingdom had closed its gates, and the disciples of the Buddha Clan had secluded themselves from the world. Why would a member of the Buddha Clan appear in Shangjing City!!!
In his previous life, several cities had faced utter destruction time and time again. They had sought aid from the Buddha Kingdom repeatedly, yet received no response. If not for the Daoists of Dao City, who knew how many people would have died.
From then on, the Buddha Clan had been branded as cold-blooded and was despised by everyone.
Yet even now, the Buddha Kingdom was still targeted by the authorities. How could it possibly send a member of the Buddha Clan to carry out a mission!
That meant—
Strong Man had been concealing his identity all along.
But now he had exposed himself right in front of Wang Ye, looking completely unconcerned.
Was he planning to silence him?
Wang Ye narrowed his eyes, a faint chill glinting within them.
"Hehe, sir, I'm sure you've already guessed."
"Of course, I never intended to hide it."
Strong Man no longer wore his previous hearty expression. Instead, his face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with dense killing intent as he looked at Wang Ye.
"Damn it, this isn't the time for nonsense! Hurry up and seal it! I can't suppress it anymore!"
Tian Qi's face was growing paler and paler, and he could not help shouting.
"Too noisy!"
Strong Man frowned slightly at Tian Qi, then raised his palm and struck the back of Tian Qi's head without hesitation.
Tian Qi turned around with an incredulous look, staring at Strong Man in shock as though he could not believe Strong Man would attack him.
Then a trickle of blood slowly ran from the corner of his mouth, and he crashed heavily to the ground.
"Heh."
"He thought he was qualified to cooperate with me."
"He used my resources to climb higher, thinking he had leverage over me because I'm from the Buddha Clan."
"Sir, don't you think he's laughable?"
"He didn't even know just how terrifying the strength of our Buddha Clan truly is."
As he spoke, the golden light around Strong Man suddenly intensified, flickering brilliantly.
The strange thing was—
The ghost Tian Qi had been restraining now stood blank-eyed behind Strong Man.
"So this ghost had been suppressed."
The furrow in Wang Ye's brow suddenly relaxed. At last, he understood why a ghost with a Second-Level Ghost Domain had such ordinary methods of killing.
But—
The Buddha Clan's abilities really were mysterious.
They could actually control ghosts!
