"You're the only one left, Young Master Zhou."
Li Han cast Fireball Technique twice more, reducing the four already-charred corpses to ashes, then slowly walked toward Zhou Bin.
The killing intent around him erupted without concealment, surging straight at Zhou Bin.
"Don't come any closer!"
Zhou Bin backed away in terror. With a leap, he tried to jump out of Green Bamboo Cottage.
But just as he was about to reach the courtyard wall, an invisible force bounced him back, and he crashed solidly onto the ground.
"A ghost! It's haunted! How can this be happening?!"
Zhou Bin grew even more terrified.

"What gi—"
Before Zhou Bin could finish,
