Black! Black! Black! Black! Black! Black! Black! Black! Red!
Looking at the nine soul rings beneath his feet, Gui Mei wore a satisfied smile.
Just as he was about to leave, a voice sounded behind him.
The voice trembled slightly, seemingly filled with disbelief. "O-Old Ghost... is that really you?"
Hearing that voice, Ghost Douluo sighed.
He did not even need to turn around to know who it belonged to.
"Old Chrysanthemum... long time no see."
Ghost Douluo slowly turned around, revealing a smiling face.
"Old Ghost!" Chrysanthemum Douluo instinctively wanted to pounce on Ghost Douluo.
He recognized at once that the person before him was Gui Mei! There was no way he could be mistaken!
Even if his eyes could deceive him, his martial soul would not! That resonance of the soul could never be wrong!
Yet, as Chrysanthemum Douluo rushed toward him, Ghost Douluo suddenly stepped back half a pace.
"Old Chrysanthemum, don't come any closer! I'm no longer Spirit Hall's Ghost Douluo! We..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? What does whether you're Spirit Hall's Ghost Douluo have to do with me?!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo did not care! He did not care in the slightest whom Ghost Douluo served now. He only wanted to know what had happened to Ghost Douluo.
"Old Ghost, what exactly is going on with you? Weren't you... dead?"
"Yes, I died." Ghost Douluo nodded calmly. "But my martial soul is special, so I was revived."
"Revived? Right, I nearly forgot—you had died once before." Tears welled up in Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes.
How could he have forgotten something so important? His Old Ghost was not so easy to kill!
Ghost Douluo nodded. "The Sect Master revived me. After this experience of dying and coming back to life, I successfully broke through to Rank 96.
