Ning Xiaochuan glanced sideways and looked behind him. Sure enough, he saw that female ghost again, identical in appearance to the Ten Thousand Sound Fairy Queen.
She stood behind Ning Xiaochuan, dressed in fluttering white robes, her long hair cascading like a waterfall. Her entire body was deathly pale and emitted a white phosphorescent glow as she slowly approached Ning Xiaochuan.
The sound of her footsteps was like the wind.
Ning Xiaochuan was in no hurry to strike. He wanted to see what exactly she intended to do. The female ghost walked up behind him, extended a pair of nearly transparent white arms, and actually embraced Ning Xiaochuan, slowly pressing her face against the center of his back.
A chill seeped in from his back, making his scalp tingle.
Ning Xiaochuan's entire body stiffened. He scarcely dared breathe as he said, "What exactly is going on? What is she doing?"
The Heavenly Emperor Blade was also dumbfounded. Stammering, it said, "Perhaps... perhaps she has mistaken you for the lover she had when she was alive!"
The instant the Heavenly Emperor Blade finished speaking, icy fiendish energy erupted from the female ghost's body. Five fingernails like sharp claws grew out, tearing toward Ning Xiaochuan's heart as though she intended to rip it out.
Ning Xiaochuan had been guarding against her all along. The instant her aura changed, he immediately swung the Demon Sword and stabbed behind him.
Whoosh!
Blood flashed.
Her body dissipated once more into smoke.
"You killed me again! You killed me again!"
The female ghost condensed a body again. Her long hair hung loose, and her beauty was breathtaking, yet her eyes carried disappointment, pain, and resentment, making her look especially pitiful.
She kept repeating the same words. "You killed me again! You killed me again!"
