"Agh!" A tiger ghoul, reeking of dense deathly aura and perhaps catching the scent of living humans first, lunged excitedly toward Lu Xiaotian and his group's direction. Yet, startled by the explosive aura bursting from the few of them, it barely had time to pull back before a giant human-shaped ghoul directly tore it in half from behind.
