The female ghost's imagination was incredibly vivid. She had already pictured Nan Tian reaching out and squeezing her throat.
At that moment, Nan Tian moved like lightning and grabbed the female ghost by the neck.
I couldn't tell whether Nan Tian had been faster or whether the female ghost's thought had come first.
Crack!
With a sound like real bones breaking, the female ghost's neck snapped.
Ghosts shouldn't be afraid of this kind of injury. But when the female ghost realized her neck had been twisted, something flickered in her mind, and only one thought remained: death.
My soul shot upward, soaring into the air.
I looked down at Nan Tian and the female ghost below.
The female ghost was disappearing, and Nan Tian's figure vanished along with her.
Suddenly, I saw a faint light again.
This time, it was the genuine first light of dawn.
I returned to my body.
I was still a little dazed.
Nan Tian's sudden appearance had caught me completely off guard. I never would have imagined things unfolding like that, no matter how wild my imagination got.
I hurriedly found my phone and called Wu Ling.
In the dream, I'd been certain Nan Tian was in a soul state, not a ghost state. I suspected his soul had left his body, but I didn't dare say for sure whether that was really what had happened.
If Nan Tian had died...
My heart began to race. As soon as I heard Wu Ling say, "Hello," I blurted out, "Look into Nan Tian! Is he alive right now?"
Wu Ling was startled by my out-of-the-blue question. She let out an "Uh" before asking me to wait a moment.
She had probably gone to find Nan Gong Yao.
I could hear voices coming from the other end
