Buddha Clan

"But—"

Wang Ye sneered. "Who said I came to save you?"

"Our mission is to deal with the ghost."

"What do I care if you live or die?"

Wang Ye's words left the few people frozen in place, staring blankly at him as their faces gradually turned pale.

"I could easily let the Ghost General kill you all, then seal him."

"You believe me?"

At that moment, in the eyes of the ordinary people, Wang Ye's smile was like a demon's, making them tremble.

"I have money. I have a lot of money."

"As long as I live, I can give it all to you."

"I swear."

The amusement park shareholder, who had been so arrogant moments ago, now had a face ashen like dead ash. He knelt on the ground, looking at Wang Ye with eyes full of pleading.

"Indeed, you only fear the wicked?"

Wang Ye said flatly, no longer bothering with the survivors. Instead, he turned to the other three ability users and said, "Let's move."

"Interesting."

Zhou Han licked her lips, picked a corner, and turned to leave.

"Whoever meets the ghost first is out of luck."

"After all, stalling a ghost alone for a while takes a heavy toll on the body."

"But I have a feeling the first one to meet it will be you."

Tian Qi gave Wang Ye a cold smile, then cast a meaningful glance at the Strong Man. The two turned and left in separate directions without a word.

"Who can say for sure about these things?"

Wang Ye muttered to himself, almost as if in a daze, then vanished into the thick fog.

Only the survivors were left, standing frozen in place.

A long time passed.

One ordinary person finally couldn't bear the immense pressure and burst into tears.

The others, faces full of fear, immediately backed away.

The man seemed to realize what he'd done and instinctively reached out a hand, but just as it lifted, his face twisted, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Back inside, shut the door, hurry!"

The shareholder stumbled back into the staff room, shouting frantically.

The others nervously closed the door as well.

None of them noticed that at the corner of one person's eye, a single tear of terror slipped down unnoticed.

"Does this ghost have no other killing patterns?"

Standing in the empty amusement plaza, Wang Ye frowned slightly, deep in thought.

Logically, a creature with a Second-Level Ghost Domain couldn't have such a monotonous killing method.

After all, if it were just resisting the crying, anyone with strong enough mental fortitude could hold out for a while.

But.

If it had other abilities, with only a few dozen employees, they should have been killed long ago. How could there be survivors?

Lost in thought, Wang Ye gradually moved further away to search.

The green fog seemed to grow thicker, obscuring more of Wang Ye's vision.

"Hehehe~"

Suddenly, a wisp of laughter flickered past Wang Ye's ear.

Wang Ye stopped abruptly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes as he looked toward the source of the sound.

But the green fog shrouded everything around him in silence.

That laugh, as if an illusion, had vanished.

Wang Ye grew more alert and quickened his search pace.

"Over here!"

In the distance, a long howl suddenly rang out. By the sound of it, it seemed to be Tian Qi's.

"That guy's luck doesn't seem so great."

Wang Ye smiled, then headed toward the spot where Tian Qi had called for help.

"This damned thing's already tangled up with me—hurry up and take him out!"

Tian Qi's voice carried a hint of urgency, his energy clearly flagging.

Wang Ye squinted slightly, watching from a distance, and noticed that at some point, a black shadow had stretched out from Tian Qi's legs toward the distance.

At the end of that shadow stood a Boy, his body steeped in a mournful aura.

"His other ability is to bind ghosts, huh?"

"Just don't know what the limit is."

Wang Ye smiled, stopped a short distance away, and looked at Tian Qi as he said, "I'm just an ordinary man—no way to seal it. Can't do a thing."

With that, a thoughtful glint flickered in Wang Ye's eyes as he settled in to watch the show.

"You bastard!"

Tian Qi's face was pale, his teeth clenched as he glared at Wang Ye. "I'll kill you for sure!"

Just then, the Strong Man rushed over, took in the scene, shot Wang Ye a deep look, and then faint golden light began to emanate from his body.

The glow was dim, yet it instantly calmed Wang Ye's heart.

"Buddha Clan!"

Wang Ye's expression shifted sharply. He instinctively stepped back twice, and a hint of wariness finally crept into his gaze as he looked at the two men.

After the Eternal Night, the Buddha Kingdom had closed its gates, and its disciples had shut themselves in. Why would a member of the Buddha Clan appear in Shangjing City!!!

In his past life, several cities had faced repeated existential threats, begging the Buddha Kingdom for help time and again with no response. If not for those Daoists from Dao City, who knew how many would have died.

From then on, the Buddha Clan had been branded as cold-blooded, unwelcome wherever they went.

But even now, the Buddha Kingdom was still targeted by the authorities—how could they possibly send a Buddha Clan member to complete a mission!

That meant—

This Strong Man had been hiding his identity all along.

But now he was revealing it in front of Wang Ye, looking utterly unafraid...

Was he planning to silence him?

Wang Ye narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flickering within.

"Heh, Benefactor must have figured it out by now."

"Of course, I had no intention of hiding it either."

The Strong Man's previously hearty expression was gone, replaced by a gloomy face, his eyes brimming with murderous intent as he stared at Wang Ye.

"Damn it, this isn't the time for idle chatter—hurry up and seal him, I can't hold him anymore!"

Tian Qi's face had grown even paler, and he couldn't help but shout.

"Shut up!"

The Strong Man glanced at Tian Qi, frowned slightly, then raised his palm and without hesitation slapped the back of Tian Qi's head.

Tian Qi turned back in disbelief, staring at the Strong Man with shock, as if he couldn't believe the man had turned on him.

Then, a trickle of blood slowly seeped from the corner of his mouth, and he crashed heavily to the ground.

"Heh."

"He thought he was worthy of working with me."

"Leaching off my resources to climb higher, thinking he had leverage over me as a member of the Buddha Clan."

"Benefactor, don't you find him laughable?"

"He didn't even know just how terrifying the strength of our Buddha Clan really is."

As he spoke, the golden light around the Strong Man suddenly flared, blazing intensely.

Strangely enough—

The ghost that Tian Qi had been restraining now stood behind the Strong Man, its eyes vacant and dull.

"Just as I thought—this ghost was being suppressed."

Wang Ye's furrowed brow suddenly relaxed. He finally understood why a ghost with a Second-Level Ghost Domain would use such crude killing methods.

Still...

The Buddha Clan's abilities were truly mysterious.

They could even control ghosts.
